graduates are now teaching high schools in leading cities of the State of Georgia, and so starting from these centres, radiating influences that shall bless many more communities. We give thanks to God for the bequest of $50,000, by which the University will now be able to add still more to its spacious accommodations. We greatly rejoice in the new feature of the work within our limits, that of lady missionaries. We have four of them. One of these has been located at Charleston, one at Miller’s Station, one at Macon, and one in Atlanta. Woman’s work for women and children in these communities, we consider a Christly service of the utmost value. Woman can enter the homes as the pastor cannot; and yet she will make work for him in following up her discoveries. Her ready sympathy and happy tact will help her in stimulating to greater domestic comfort, and will aid her in doing good through many ways that are peculiarly her own. We are comforted by the educated young men who are coming forward to minister in our churches. Besides those who have been raised up in the “Beach” to minister to the churches that cluster about it, we are happy in the coming of four graduates of the Theological department of Talladega College in Alabama, three of whom are this week receiving ordination at the hands of our own church councils, and the other is the moderator of one of these Convocations. We are happy to express grateful obligation to that Christian institution in another State for this gift of her cultured sons, who are to us also a part of the ascension gift of our blessed Lord. We are devoutly grateful to God for the spiritual refreshings that have been enjoyed this year in our churches and schools. Some have had special seasons of revival. Others have had the dew in the fleece. Many souls have been brought into fellowship with Christ, and Christians have, we trust, been advanced somewhat in the process of purification. We cannot conclude this annual narrative without recording our gratitude to the American Missionary Association, which, under God, has been the occasion within a short period of all this school and church development as now represented by the Conference of Georgia. We remind ourselves, also, that this is only one of seven of these Conferences which have been the outgrowth of the same general Christianizing process at the South. We magnify the grace of God bestowed upon the churches and friends who have furnished that Association with the funds, the prayers and the sympathies, that were essential to this great work. “This is the Lord’s doing; it is marvelous in our eyes.” J.
