MCINTOSH, GA.—Rev. A. J. Headen writes: “I have a great deal of walking to do because I have no horse, and I am not able to go as much as I might if I had one. Please see if you can help me to secure one through some friend. I give you my word it would add a hundred per cent. here to our work if a horse could be put in the field. Some days I walk from eight to nine miles to see the people and to attend to church work.” MACON, GA.—Rev. S. E. Lathrop writes: “When Brother Rogers was here he told us we ought to ‘pray for a missionary horse.’ Whether that is the best way to get one or not, I am not sure, but I do wish we had one. When I see a serviceable horse, I sometimes feel like breaking the tenth commandment, and saying, as the disciples said to a certain colt’s owner, ‘The Master hath need of him.’ We feel the need of some kind of locomotive power, as the hot weather of spring has begun. Our long walks under the burning sun, take the starch out of our linen, to say nothing of the lassitude and fatigue of body. There are no street cars now running in Macon; they are bankrupt, defunct and buried (_i. e._ the tracks) under sand and gravel. Some of our members live two miles in one direction and some three miles in another. The whole congregation are scattered far and wide, hence they are somewhat irregular, and the labor of visitation is much increased. If we had a horse we could accomplish much more, besides saving something on draymen’s bills, etc., etc. All our workers _need_ the recreation of riding for the sake of health, and we can’t afford to hire hacks. Now I don’t know why I wrote this, except that I do feel like ‘praying for a missionary horse.’ Join your prayers with ours.” TALLADEGA, ALA.—The theological students at Talladega College have just been favored with a course of lectures on Eschatology by Rev. H. S. De Forest, President of the College. The students manifested a lively interest in these lectures, and in the study of the intricate and somewhat obscure field of thought traversed by them. The lecturer having positive views, combined with much classic and theologic learning on the themes discussed, and possessing a warm, Christian heart, did not fail to make a deep impression on all who heard him. Eight young men will be graduated from the Theological Department of the College this year, all of whom will enter the Congregational ministry in the South. They are now warmly welcomed to the pulpits of all denominations, and are recognized as an important factor in the elevation of the colored people in this region. KYMULGA, ALA.—A very interesting temperance meeting is reported. Sixty persons were present. The exercises consisted of singing, addresses and selections by the members of the Society. Rev. H. S. De Forest, of Talladega, visited the Sunday-school and preached for the people.
