THE V I liM J N Gl ON MESSENGER. TUESDAY. OCTOBER 15 189. lh Easttrn Baptist AModation. This body of christians, met in their 40th session with the Concord church, six miles west of Magnolia, onhe 8th in st. The opening" sermon was preached by Rev. P. A. Underwooi from Col. xind was a closely reasoned and rheteri nl1rplfnant discourse settincr forth the tlejendcnce the independence and the tn terdeindcnx of th churches. There rxas an unusually large number of the churches represented at the opening vof the session, some fifty, and the Rev. J. L. Stewart, one of the best presiding officers in the Sta'te, was elected mod erator, a position he has filled most efficiently for many years. Rev. J. L. J3ritt, was re-elected clerk and S. W. Carlton, Treasurer. The reading of the letters from the churches consumed t the entire afternoon, and their tenor nva3 in tje main of an encouraging character. The attention of your cor respondent was arrested by the finan cial statement of the First Baptist church of Wilmington, wnicn aggre gated a grand total of o,4() for all ob- iects. The Brooklyn church was re ported in a prosperous condition and much encouraged by the settlement of their new pastor. Rev. A. A. Scruggs among their The number of visiting ministers was large, consisting of Rev. Messrs. 3Iitchell, Durh'an,T)ill, Speight and 1 britten, while those are pastors within body, there were the Moderator and the Clerk. Rev. Iessrs.Kenedy,Pritch- ird, Barlow, Bert, Faison, Sausling, Weeks, Gower and Matthews, seven teen in all. One of the promisini .young ministers of the body has just gone to Crozer Theological Seminary, near Philadelphia, Mr. F, W. wooten, the better to prepare himself for the work of his life. The special order for Thursday at 10 si. m., the second day of the meeting, was fctate Missions, wnicn cause was presented in a speech of much interest -uid ability by the Secretary of the Board, Rev. C. Durham. He stated that ninety-one missionaries had been employed during the year in many des titute places east of the Blue Ridge the Western Convention which meets at an early day at Asheville, having charge of the regions beyond the mountains. Throughout the State generally, there had been 20,000 addi tions to the churches, and 100 new A-'hurchcs built at a cost of more than $100,000: that the Missinnarv Rnntiwts of the State numbered not less than 250,000, 100,000 of whom were colored that for the past sixty years the de nomination had "doubled everv twenty (years, and at no time had there been more rapid progress in all enterprises or a larger increase of the members ihan during the past year. At 11 a. m. the missionar3' sermon was preached by Dr, Pritchard ot your .ity, from the text, Exodus xvii: 15, Jchovah-Nis', The Lord our Banner. The preacher spoke of a banner as rep resenting principles, a banner as an en sign of battle, and a banner as a signal -of victory, and presented a very earn est plea for the prevalence of Baptist principles. Some of other churches who were present could not see exactly where the missionary part of the ser mon came in, but the Baptists seemed to be well pleased with the discourse, wnicn. while strongly denominational, was at the same time courteons and kind, as was lo be expected from Dr. TIig afternoon was occupied by Dr. ' Mitchell in an excellent speech for educating poor young preachers and nn eloquent presentation of the claims of Home Minions by Mr. Dill, of Golds boro. Dr. Mitchell said there were ."mow at Wake Forest some forty young preachers, thirty-one of whom were helped, to some extent, by his board, besides about a dozen who were at the ological seminaries. Mr. Dill spoke of mission work among the negroes of the South, the Indians of the West, the foreign element in our large cities and the very interesting mission in Cuba under Alberto Diaz, M. D., one of the most remarkable works of grace known in this century. ! Dr. Pritchard had an appointment to lecture in Magnolia to-night, but learn ing that a revival was in progress in the Methodist church, he withdrew it, and preached for the talented young pastor, Rev. Mr. Sawyer. The first matter claiming the atten tion of the Association Thursday mov ing was the report of the Executive Committee of the body, when a spirited debate sprang up between J. T. Bland, of Burgaw, who wished the Assooiation to conduct its own missionary opera tions, and Messrs. Mills, Pritchard and Weeks, who were in favor of co-operating with the State Mission Board. The body-voted to continue co-operation. Mr. Weeks and-Dr. Pritchard made speeches on the Foreign Mission report submitted by Mr. Albritten,and in the afternoon Mr. Mills spoke for an hour in behalf of the orphanage at 'TMirvnic,in.-k TTn V... ings for four families of twenty-four children each, anew building now in process of erection for children under eight years of age, to be paid for by Mr. Simmons of Will iamston, another house soon to bo erected, money for which, has been promised by a lady, a chapel, and a printing office where ""Charity and Children'7 xuuiuuoiiiivi lib uu tucv llclLt UU11U" the organ of the orphanage is printed, 1 u paper which now has a circulation of -3,200 copies. There are now 113 child ren at the orphanage ;sSo per month is needed to feed and clothe each child and meet the cost of officers and teach ers and other running expenses; it .-will be seen that a larger amount of money is required tq meet the current demands of the Institution. Many feared when the orphanage was pro jected that it would seriously cripple other enterprises of benevolence ; but while it has been perhaps the most pop .ular of all, the other causes, nurseries education, etc., have all steadily in- creased in the support they have re- ceived. Mr. Mills was, as healways is unique in his style, but very interest ing as well as very original. The next . session after to-day will be held at Riley's Creek, not far from Rocky Point. Rev. J. A. Spright read the report -on periodicals and made an address on . the Biblical Recorder ; the organ of the -Bajtist in this State.. This speech produced roars of laughter and excited varied comments. Some liked it very u much.while others thought its humor v too broad and its style of delivery al together too undignified for a Gospel minister. Sermons were preached each day by different ministers, Messrs. cDell, Durham and Gower officiating at the stand while the business was being transacted in the church. Tho rmwd in attendance, aslarre. especially on Wednesday, and what is more, it was remarkably well behaved. The ladies were generally handsome and elegantly attired, wnne ine sup plies or "creature comiorts were abundant and appetizing.

The appearance of the people and tho taoieB groaniDj4 wnu ui j iwu, uuv ever, would notlndicate that there had been war or famin in this country for a hundred years. L.IQUI. A Woman's Discovery. Another wonderful discovery has been made and that too by a lady in this country. Disease fastened its clutches upon her and for seven 3-ears she withstood its severest test, but her vital organs were undermined and death seemed imminent. For three months she coughed incessantly and could not sleep. She. bought of us a bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption and was so much relieved on taking first dose that she slept all night and with one bottle has been mi raculously cured. Her name is Mrs. Luther Lutz.'t Thus write W. C. Ham rick & Co.. of Shelby, N. C Get a free trial bottle at Robert. R. Bellamy's Drug Store, Wholesale and Retail Druggist. . The man wlio tries to gratify a champagne appetite with a beer in come will never make home happy as long as he lives. Unjust Taxation. It is unjust to tax the stomach with burthens it cannot bear. Many silly people thus tyrannize that faithful ser vitor until it rebels and punishes them as they deserve. Dyspepsia is usually the child of gastronomic iouy, put whether this or the natural associate of inherent feebleness from childhood, it is surely and pleasantly remediable with Hostetter's Stomaah Bitters, the finest and most highly sanctioned gas tric tonic in existence. As a result of the tone immrted to the stomach, and the increased activitv of its digestive action, insured by the persistent use of tnis Denign invigorani, general stam ina is augmented 'the nerves strength ened and tranquilized, and a tendency to insomnia and hypochondriasis de feated, Biliousness, emus ana iever, rheumatism and kidney troubles are conquered by this admirable medicine. There is talk of the oyster getting into a trust. Down with the oyster. New York Health Department. Dr. Cyrus Edson, Superintendent of the Sanitary Bureau of New York City, writes the following unsolicited letter regarding Speer's Port Grape Wine. New York, January, 1888. Mr. Speer, The box of wine has been safely re ceived. I never lose an opportunity to recommend your good wine, for I know it to be one of the pure brands obtain able. Yours sincerely, CYRUS EDSON.

Many seemingly incurable cases of blood poison, catarrh, scrofula and rheumatism have been cured by B. B. B. (Botanic Blood Balm), made by the Blood Balm Co., Atlanta, Ga. Write to them for book filled with convincing proof. G. W. B. Raider, living seven miles from Athens, Ga., writes: "For sev eral years I suffered with running ul cers, which doctors treated and pro nounced incurable. A single bottle of B. B. B, did me more good than all the doctors. I kept on-'- using it and every ulcer healed." " D. C. Kinard & Son, Townliga, Ga., writes: "We induced a neighbor to try B. B. B. for catarrh, which he thought incurable, as it had resisted all treatment. It delighted him and con tinuing its use he was cured sound and well." - i R. M. Lawson, East Point, Ga., writes: "My wife had scrofula 15 years. She kept growing worse. She lost her hair and her skin broke out fearfully. Debility, emaciation and no appetite followed. After physicians and numer ous advertised medicines failed, I tried B. B. B. and her recovery was rapid and complete." Oliver Secor, Baltimore, Md.,writes: "I suffered from weak back and rheu matism. B. B. B. has proven to be the only medicine that gave me'relief." A new idea embraced in Ely's Cream Balm. Catarrh is cured by clear 'r and healing, not by dicing" up. li is not a liquid or snuff, but is easily ap plied into the nostrils. Its effect is magical and a thorough treatment will "cure the worst cases. Price oOe. Geese may be silly, but they know enough to go to a warm climate when the weather becomes cold.' With Ely's Cream Balm a child can be treated without pain or dread and with perfect safety. Try the remedy.; It cures catarrh, hay lever and colds in the head. It is easily applied into the nostrils and gives relief with the first application. Price 50c. "My love, what magic spell Is thrown, Upon your face f Its charm I own. Whence came thy pure an pewly teeth? Thy rosy lips? Thy perfumed breath?" She said in accents sweet and clear, "Tla only SOZODONT, my dear." The Atmosphere of Love Is a pure, sweet breath. This desider atum is one of the results of using SO ZODONT, which not only invigorates and preserves the teeth, but renders the mouth as fragrant as a rose.
