MACON, GA.--There seems to be a growing spirit of harmony among the members. The Sunday-school has had an average attendance of 116, and is in a good state of efficiency and progress. It had a very successful Christmas concert and “fruit tree,” and its other occasional concerts have been interesting. Mr. and Mrs. Lathrop have done as much missionary work as they could, and have distributed quantities of clothing, etc., to the poor, among whom there has been much real suffering from the severe weather. ATLANTA, GA.--It is refreshing to one’s soul to get into a live prayer-meeting like ours last night. One good brother said, “This thing what you call Christianity is no small thing. It starts small, but it grows and grows and grows till it reaches out of this world into the land we call Heaven.” Another faithful brother always prays much, and especially for our school, and in his remarks last evening gave as his opinion--“If ’twan’t for what’s ben done on this yere block this city would be ten times worser’n it is in ignorance ’n superstition. I hain’t no chillun o’ my own and I dunno much about dealin’s with chillun, but I know dealin’s with chillun ain’t no funny thing.” This evidently showed his appreciation of our labor, and our hearts echoed his sentiments, while we smiled at his quaintness and originality. SELMA, ALA.--The school is larger at this time than it has ever been during the same months since my connection with it. The enrolment for the present month is 339. We have this year quite a number of young men in attendance, from our own and adjoining counties. A course of lectures, intended mainly for the parents of the scholars, has been determined upon, and two lectures have been delivered by the pastors of the Methodist and Baptist churches respectively. Others are purposed for each month of the school year. On Friday evening, 31st inst., there was a re-union of the Church. The first hour was spent in preparatory exercises, for the coming Communion service, after which greetings by letter were read by the pastor and others, from those who had been connected with the church as pastors, and absent sisters and brothers, all showing a deep interest in the welfare and growth of the church. Then followed remarks from those present, who had come from other States and from Talladega College, giving us a description of their work in the day and Sunday-schools, showing how much they appreciate the advantages they have received and enjoyed, and are anxious to help raise others to the same standard in spiritual and intellectual advancement.
