“_Resolved_ further: That said Commission be directed to see that said fund is faithfully applied according to said plan of expenditure, and in no other way.” This bill is practically as wicked as the one for which it is offered as a substitute. As the New York _Independent_ says, it “imposes a fine of $8,000 per year upon an institution for permitting the child of a teacher to recite to his own father.” Such legislation is a disgrace to the century. Private and missionary schools should have the fullest liberty in this Republic to teach whom they will. A missionary school opens its doors and says, in the language of the gospel whose teachings it is bound to follow, Whosoever will, may come. The Georgia Legislature sets itself up above the gospel, and says, Whosoever will, may _not_ come. Shame upon the State that, while calling itself Christian, dares to legislate in violation of Christian principle. It will not, it cannot prosper, till it changes its course. What the final outcome will be we cannot yet say; but this is certain, the legislation will be against our principles and our work. In the meantime, it is pertinent for us to ask the churches if they intend to stand by us as we attempt to stand for the principles on which as an Association we rest—principles that we believe to be the very essence of the gospel? To close this year with a debt would certainly be a great discouragement in our work. Friends, bend to the rescue with a will. * * * * * THE INDIAN LANGUAGE IN MISSION WORK.
