Tn, aPauiine Epistl~ss discussed Before
the ". N. q. A. Sunday Afternoon.

Th,apauiine Epistles, Discussed Before
the v. M. q. A. Sunday Afternoon.
The Pauline epistles were ably dis
Gu ssed by Rev. j. II. Kerr Sunday after
noon in his lecture to young men at the
Y. M. G. A. rooms. The speaker stated
that these letters of Paul are not arranged
in the bible according to the time they
wire written. Paul dictated to an amaI-
uensis. TIE authorship Of Hebrews WAS
not touched as Prof. Weidner had ex-
planned that fully. Origin says thst God
only knows who wrote Hebrews. These
are divid ed into three classes. First
The early espistles. Second-epistles of
the captivity. Third-P astoral episiles
Near 81 A. D Paul was converted. A con-
densed outline of Paul's three missionary
journeys we're gwen and the places pointed
out on the map. The main feature of
the talk was taking each Epistle in order
of time written. showing under what cir
cums.snces Paul himself was when
writing and the condition of the church
or person to whom the letter was sd-
dressed. Ephesisns was referred to as
heiag the most profound Of Paul's letters.
No words of commentator are found in
Galatians. Philemon Is beautiful Ii tile
gem while PHILIPPIANS is full of gratitude.
The ono to Titus. a young man in charge
of the church at Crete, invests him with
authority and admonishes him to let no
ons despise his youth. The second letter
to Timothy is Pauls last and encourages
Timothy not to be ashamed OF the gospel
ofChrist.
Rev. Kerr gives his last talk in the
course next Sunday, and all young men
Interested are invited.

Especial Cor. STATE CHRONICLE.I
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, May 13.-The
meeting of the Woman's Missionary Un-
O'Clock by the President, Miss Mcintosh,
but several minutes was consumed in re-
questing gentlemen to retire, who seem
ed to fail to understand that this was al
together ladies meeting, and no gen
tlemen allowed.
1t would be impossi le to give any
thing like detailed account of the meet
ings, SO much business being transacted
and SO many subjects touched upon, we
only mention a few of the more striking
reports or addresses.
Mrs. L. E. Eager's paper on "Mis-
sionary Literature was the ablest ex
position of the subject that We have
ever heard, and might we'll be- taken
as a guide in the formation of
missionary library. She began with the
great tones on the science, foundation
and growth of missions and built up
around them, as the solid foundation
stones, missionary biography, travels,
adventures and labors, and did not for
get to add the missionary leahet. These
last she though had very large field,
that no other form of missionary Iitera-
ture could fill. They were to this branch
of literature what small arms were to the
army. One big book or CANNON would
be used to several thousand leaflets She
urged the more extended use of them.
DR.. J. NJ Frost addressed the meet
ing on Oar Religious Duty to the Coiored
People. He wished to bring this home
to the homes and hearts of the Southern
people, and he thought he could do this
best if he could reach the ladies. He
doubted if we were thrown daily in con
tact with the Chinese if there would be
any more romance in work for them,
personal and individual work, than now
in trying to train our servants to higher
religious living We owed them efforts
for their uplifting for causes political
philanthropic but above all religious.
Education, much as it was doing forthem
would lot accomplish the work, but
sought to impress. Religious training
and that alone would accomplish it.
Recommendations for work next year
were read from the Foreign and State
Board of the Convention. They We're liz

greatly bereaved. Sad as the death of
one so young and popular must be
under any circumstances, the death of
MRs. WEEKS is peculiarly sad. She had
been quite sick. and two weeks ago her
husband, who is at Johns Hopkins Uni
versity, was telegraphed for to come to
her dying bedside. She thought she was
dying and gave her last words to her
husband and family. But, con-
trary to all expectations, she rallied
and seemed to be on the road to perfect
health. Her husband returned to his
duties with the confident faith that she
had passed the critical point in her dis
ease and would rapidly regain strength.
Yesterday she was thought to be improv-
ing, and it was not until after twilight
that she began to fail. The suddenness
adds to the deep sorrow of her family,
and the young husband has the addi
tional pang Of b3ing far away from her
bedside. She leaves bright and sunny
boy, aged three years.

NEGRO POSTMASTERS.

[From the New Orleans Times Demo
crat,I
There is vacancy in President Har-
rison's home pos, Office, Indianapolis, and
the Sentinel Of that city suggests that
be fill the vacancy by appointing a
negro to that office. He chose re-
gro postmasters in Vicksburg, Opelousas
and other Southern cities lately against
the protests of the people, and there is
no reason why Indianapolis should not
have similar dose of darkey. The Sen
tinei calls attention to the fact that while
there are hundreds Of negroes tit for
postoffices in Indiana, there is not col
ored postmaster in that entire State
There is, therefore, all the more reason
why Harrison should recognize the race.
II also notes the fact that the presi-
dents own organ, The Journal, warmly
indorsed his appointment of the negro
Hill as postmaster at Vicksbarg, and eX-
pressed the opinion that he was doing
wise act in selecting him for that place.
II wise for Vicksburg it IS equally wise
in indianapolis, for what is sauce for
the Mississippi goose ought to De sauce
for the Indiana gander-
The Journal should be tqlally ready
to commend similar colored postmas-
ter in the Indiana city. We fear, how
ever, that tie color line will be drawn
in this case, as it always is in the north,
when there is an office to fiji, and that
the da1kies OF the presidents city will
be shut out of the postcflice.
