"ire joa not reidj to sav perhaps Paul, in ut- tamg this language, labored under an erroneous imprtssionl Do not your minds almost inrolun- "tuilf condude that none o a be enemies of the cross of Christ! Do you not find yourselves ex- claiming, this is a most uncharitable indictment of hnman nature, fallen though it be! Ah, my friends! Paul labored under no mistake. He spoke the words of truth and soberness. There -K-ere in his - day, and there ire now enemies of the cross. The mfictment he makes out is as erne as inspiration can render it. But who arc enemies of the crossT Win any admit that thty are justly chargeable with this enmity? It cannot be denied that those guilty of impous hostility to the cross arc di-sinclined to acknowledge it. Hence it is necessary for a min-. iater of the gospel to delineate the characters of those Trho are e n ^ e s of the cross. This is my pnsent object. 1. 'Who ake thb esevxes or m s cuora op CaHHT? I answer, 1. Those vho deny the expiatory nature of his death. That the Savior become obedient unto dath thatie might make an atonanent for sin is snscsptifale of abundant proof. I refer yon to the fellowing passages: "He was wounded for our transgressions, he was braised for our iniquities: the chastisement of onr peacc was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.^ '-TKa is the Wood of the New Testament, which is shed for many, for the remisaon of sins." "Behold the Lamb of God who taketh away the sin of the world." '•'Whom God hath, set forth to be a propitiation through faith in Ka Wood. That he might be just and the justifier of him that beHereth in Jesus."' '•Christ hath redeemed us from the cnrse of the law being made a curse for us." '-Once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the saaifice of himself." "'Who nis own self bare onr sins in his own IxHiy on the tree. ''Herein is lore, not that we loved God, but that he loved us. and sent his son to be the propitiation for our sins." R ia manifest from these passages that the death of Christ was sacriiidal. He shed his blood as a propitiary oferingi He endured the agonies of the cross that he might sustain the authority of the fivine law—satisfy the demands of divine" justice —and preserve untarnished the honor of the divine throne in the salvation of lost sinnersl To make " atonement for sin was the great object of the Mes- siah's mcamation and death. Those, therefore, who deny the doctrine of atonement are enemies to the 0053. They may say, as Sodnians do. that Jesus died as a martyr to the truth, or, as Unita- rians do, that he died to manifest God's benevo- lence to man—but if they divest the death of Christ of to expiatory character, they are enemies of his cross. They lob the cross of its chief gloiy. •When ever this is done it may be said in truth, •iln enemy hath done this." 2. Those vha reject the salvation of Jesus Christ. This salvation was purchased by the blood shed on the cross, Calvary was the theatre on which was acted the awful tragedy which laid a firm basis for the hopes of a dying world. 'When the dark cloud of heaven's wrath, gathering all its blackness, dischai^ed its fearful contents on the head of Jesus of, Nazareth, the light of hope dawned on ruined man. In the language of a fine wnter: - The cross recrived the thunder from the thrcatemng cloud, md gave sunshine to the uni-crsc." The offer of salvation is made through the blood of the cross. '-'God was in Christ reconcilmg the world unto himself."' All his merdfcl manifesta- tioiis to man are made through the cross. But for the death of Jsus there would have been no sal- vation for our apostate race. Ah tliink, impeni- tent anner, what it cost the Savior that the offer of salvation might bemadeto-youl It did not cost him ^vsr and gold, and gems, and pearls and treasuira of anpires—but his blood—his heart's bloof " This WI3 eompsEsion like a God, That when the Savior knew, The price uf pardon wax big blioti. His pity ne'er withdrtTv." None but the enenies.of the cross can set at the salvafion procured by the Redeemtr s Wood:'' Andwhat enmity must they feel*, infernal, and worse Maa mfemal! For Satan in tempting smeis to aie salvation of Christ, tempts them to do what he has never done himself. Noth- ing but enmity to the cross induces a refusal to be saved by the giorioua Eedcemer who died thereon. 3. Thou trho rove sin, (wrf vkosc afeclims are placed an the world. The cross is the grand antagonist of sin. It was , _ai!Sted to demdisH ain. Sin is the great work of the &vil, and "for this purpose the Son of God was manifested that he might destroy the works of the-deriL The evil of sm appears in the cross. Its tmpihide iswritlen far more legiTrly in the &vior3 blood than in the. damnation of the finally nnpenitent. No man everleams the la^^on which the cross teaches without hating sin. The enemies of the crass stow their enmity in their love of sin. ' The-snmify and the love go hand in hand. The enmity neror ceases till the hjve of sia is destroyed. 01 ye lovQS of yon are enemies o£ tho cross of Jbos. I h»Te refiared to a lore of the world.

It is the cross ' wiach cmdfiea eur lore t£ the world, and until this cradflxioii takes place there ia enmity to the cross. l a Tiev of thee considerations hew evident that those vha lore sin ui4 the world ore enemies of the cross. - 4. Vust vho do net amfUfy the prttxpts of the gospei TMs point has been, in somedegreej antidpated, bitit deservesto'be more prominently set forth. Tha tradendea of t ^ "do«fcrineff-of thr cross are tmrnpntTy piacticaL "What is Betto adapted to prodoce t^Mtance than the preaching of the cross, dsTCtopiai^iiBttdoeSjiiieaiBligBityafml What &'l>etitf l i ^ ^ t ^ to iugpire Mflt-thia u t eSlijlHtia& of CKi^axidBel&ff tlieainct^iiinf tbston of God is ihed afamdinttetel^i^n- Jg.^lWlBiu. M •nr.iMaite^jWBfejaoM^^ my commandments." Those who love Jesus will exhiWt their love in making a public profession of aUegiimce to him m baptism—in attending public worship—in commemorating his death—in promot- ing his cause—in Uvmg uprightly before tiie world, 4e. "For the grace of God that bringeth balvation, teaches us that denying all ungodliness and world- ly lusts, we should live soberiy, righteously and pdly in this present world." The gospel abounds in precepts. When we love the cross and glory in it, will we not obey ftese prccepts? And if we do not, is not ou; disobedience evidence of our enmity? Most certainly. It foUows, therefore, that those who do not exemplify the precepts of the gospel are enemies of the cross of Christ. I I . THE CNHEASOJJASLK.VESS AXD CHUIIX.ILITT OP THIS EN-MTTT. I argue its unfcasonableucss and criminality from the fact, that 1. The cross displnys tki love of God in the most astonhking immner. That "God is love"" is the snhKmest proposition ever submitted to the consid- eration of men or angels. To prove this proposi- tion true, creatifin and Providence supply numer- ous arguments, but the cross fnrniilies the grand ' argument, or rather the ovcrwhelm'mg demonstra- tion. If ever a truth was demonstrated, the love of God to man was demonstrated when the cross was crectcd. Look at the expiring Jc."^ of Naza- reth—there is incarnate love—there fee philanthro- py of heaven shines forth in all its strength- strength competent to raise the sinner from tht deep sorrows of the fall to the extatic joys of tlie throne of God. The cross is the cxponant of God's love to man. How unreasonable then is enmity to the cross! Ahd the enmity is as criminal as unreasonable. The deepest elements of crimin^ity are to be found in this enmity. Now is it strange that the pen of inspiration has written:—' If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be ac- cursed. the Lord cometh."' Enmity to the cross The l a n a u c . af thr Bible npoa the ailBd «/ Maa. is the precurser of a richly deserved damnation. — The pioas on earth and the rcdcc-^cd in heaven lave the cross and glory in it. The predous doctrines of the cross ha\ e chccred many a sad heart. Many a burdened sinner has loss his bunlen while viewing the cross. Christians have gloried in it in life and death. Much of the best blood that ever ran in human veins has been shed m honor of the cross. The ransomed before the throne recur to the blood of the cross as the price of tbeir redemption. To Him who was oncc the illustrious sufiercr of the cross they say, with adwing gratitude and love. "Thou wast slain and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood." This is the language of all the blood purchased and blood-washed hosts on high—a multitude which no man can number. How unreasonable then is enmity to the crossl The enemy of the cross is the enemy of that which ^ the pious on earth and all the redeemed in heaven love. He is the enemy of what angels contem- plate with the profoundest interest and from which they derive their best and sublimest conceptions of the character of God. Is it not unreasonable for men to indulge enmity against that which angels love' And how criminal tool Alas, the enemy of the cross is the enemy of that which alone can pacify the troubled consdencc—conccal human guilt— solace the spint in the day of adversity—bridge the gulf of death—encircle the grave with a halo of glory—and open the gate of heaven for the ran- somed of the Lord. 'Who can deny the criminality of s-ach enmity as this? 3. While this enmity continues it prccludcs the possibility of salvation. There is no other medium of salvation but the cross. Mercy comes to man through the blood of Immanuel alone. "Other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ." The atonement of Calvary fumislies the only rea.sons why God can save a sinner. At the cross alone can God atid the sinner meet in friendship. The cross like Jacob's ladder connects heaven and earth. Is it not manifest that the sinner while an enemy of the cross can never be saved by it! The enmity must be .sUin- There must be reconciliation to God through Jesus Christ. Is it unreasonable and criminal for a sinner to destroy his soul? to exclude himself from all par- tidpation in the mercy of God' to plant tliom^ in his dying pillow? to bar the gate of heaven against his own admittance? to make so far as he is con- cerned, the hallelojahs of Paradise inaudiMe, and its bright glories invisible? There is enmity to the cross unreasonable and criminal; for it does all this. Nce<i I say more in proof of the iinrea-sona- hlencss and criminality of this eniniiy' BES-UIKS. 1. How great, how appalling is the ilcj^raTity of maul History bears testimony that incn have been the enemies of their country—the enemies of their fathers, their mothers, their brothers, thi-ir sisters, thdr drives, their children—but all this is not so frightful a demonstration of depravity a.s enmity to the cross. The human race might well feci dis- honored if only one of its members were the my of the cross- Alas the enmity of which I have spoken rankles m the hearts of millions! 2. How deeply humbled should christians Iwl They were once enemies of the cross. They were once on the way to hell and would be on their way thither now if God had not interposed by his grace. Ah christian friends, if you ever feel the risings of pride in your hearts, remember you were formerly enemies of the cross- This thought will abaiw you before the Lord. 3. Many professors of religion are enemies of the cross. Paul says in the te*t '-many tro/i," 4c. There is, I presume, reference to nominal christians. I do noir wonder that the apostle wept. And there was eloquence in his tears. In the afiecting reca- pitulation of his trials in H Cot. XI Chap, it is not intimated that he wept when he suffered from "hunger and thirst, cold and nakedness," nor when he "five times received forty stripes save one"— "thrice was beaten with rods, stoned once," 4c. He had no tears to shed over personal sufferings and caUmiti^; but when he remembered that many who professed to love Jesus were enemies of his otiss. It broke his mighty heart, and he wept like a fond mother over the d^th of her first-born. The great ^spostle in tears! "What a spectacle! The eneiny of the cross is his own enemy. Yes his oto worst enemy. He who indulge en- mity to the croM not only despises the love which provides .for its erection—arid insults the Lamb of God who died thereon, but is hostile to his own best interests. He virtnafly hales his soul—hates hap- piness—hates salvation. AU this ia involved in oimity to the cross. ' Strange thing for a man to be his o.wn enemy! nothing is more common. .5. Wh»t«i awful pl«w must heU be! Itspop- poUiioa consists of enemies of the cross. tThe Qodalias no'ltienSs there. The mhabitKnts aie tk»i-«iaiDiei of on* uoatc—aMoies Delivered by Robert IF. Morehead [a student in the Sophomore class )attke first annual eraminalicm of the students of Bethel High School; Russellville A'l,., June 21, 1855. The mind develops itself in being made subser- vient to outward objcots. It is truly of an elastic material, and that too of such a nature, as often to become brittle. The great outward influence,"!, which are scattered over the universe, strike the mind with an overpowering awe. Of the causes which prepuce su:h efl'ects upon the mind, much has been said, and much more might, at le^st, be imagined. Put to say nothing of these, it-is^g^ plain that ou mary occasions, the mind wonders to catch the distant in preference to the nearest ol>- ject; and that thu presentation of the glimmering rays of the remote fill it with rapturous delight, <ausing it to ruse from the steady gaze of the pre- seut aiid soar inUi the mysterious vault of the fu- ture. I fon the sacrcil pages of inspiration are inscri- bed the glowing scenes of tlie i«ist, the delightfiil path of the present, and the beautiful prospects of the future. Ttio.se of the past cnrich the mind, tho.sc of the prestnt illume its vision, giving it to- gether with those of the future a delirious sight into the fruits of eternity, as seen wafting over the rich fields of imroeasily. From its every Howtr, and from the rich lianquet arc inhaled precious odours. Upon these tlie mind feasts and basks in the sunbeams of their melody, wliile it is inspired with the poetry of the Bible. Its pure strains of eloquence fire the soul, and en- liven every action of man. The principles therein contained cannot in any way be allied to vice. But. in order to be more minute in describing th» influences which are brought to bear upon the mind in connection with the Bible, we will present a few facts, which being studied are likely to wield a mighty sway over the refined feelings of the same. The grandeur of a scene may paint itself upon the fancy without being in particular described. For instance In the beginning God created the heavens and earth. The works, ot each day are here speci- lied, but no paintings in vivid colors of the appear- ance, as one world after another is being placed m its proper orb; and was it the case that no imagina tion were permitted, with its extensive wandering."!, to unfold the mysterious picture of the creation, one dark, and obscured mass would staad arrayed before the mind, and its inllaence upon the same would be lost. Let though, the beautiful scene, as imagination might draw the sketch, appear wrapt in glowing colors, and from one dark, chaotic, and conglomera- ted heap emerge forth the wheeling orbs of heaven, environed with clouds of dazzUng light: and the coldest and most tH:nighted mind would be ready to acknowledge some attractions. The mere idea that in a few days all nature underwent a mighty change, is too stupemlous to contemplate; as no other aspect could possibly produce such an cffect. The darkness wh;ch had l>efore overspread the uni- verse, might have presented a scene of horror even to the miiiJ of Utitj-. and such as the fee>ile pow- ers of man cannot grasp. But as this recedes and the burning orb which expels it, is being placed in the vault of heaven, one might imagine ten thou- sand other orbs a.5 they cease to revolve around in all their gilded biauty. with one accord sing prai.ses together, and give way for tlie rcccption of the Kin^ of day. Behold again, as luountaiiLS rise, valleys sink down and rcccive into their bosom the swelling waves; and as the spoi tive fi.sh ilivides the rolling water-s, the herbs of the field may be seen shooting forth, living bcinfs iHOunding over the surface of the earth, and last, though by no means least, man comes forth, holding m his han<l rule and do- minion,; with an admiration unknown to his poster- ity he glanced in hurried confu.sion over the grand and majestir works spread out before him, and catched, by a flash of his eye. a boundless expanse in which he is eaf;er to soar. The powers of his mind are perhaps now unfolded, and these strange, though not visionary lares, bind them in ec5tacy. Are not such effects produced upon the mind whenever these things are thus viewed ' and the sacred scripturcs ^ving the foundation for such, cause sincere adoration tJ) bum as live coals upon the altar of the heart. In all crcaticin there cannot be found the book (altbmgh it shines with the light of this] which coutams more sublime and fruitful themes fur investigation; giving at the same time such delicious feasts to the soul. For .the example already presented, forms but one of the numerous and glowing pictures printed on the pages of inspi- ration, which give.s of itself an indellible impress to the mnid. Mount Sinai stamLs up btfore us roTorcd with clouds and wreathed with lightnings, the fire of Heaven lights up its towering top; in its midst moves the Great (lod of the universe; from his lips proceeds a stream of holy eloquence and didactic instruction. L'ndcr the power of hi.s province man's feeble fonn lies prostrate upon the earth, ki.ssing the footstool of his Majesty. The pr-sence of the Deity, on all occasions, affords a spcctade too aw- ful to contimplatc^ without having the ftelings en- listed to that pitch which cau.scs the mind to shrink and shudder with holy fear. What mind can then trace with care die histories of the God-fearing men of old, and forbear to enlist feelings in the subject presented in the Bible; or who can sit down and calmly drink in the streams of prophetic in-spiration, and forget dieir design.', or be blind to the purposes of heaven. Prophecies have in no i^e of the world liecn without notice. Before the prophet the knee ha.s bowed, and kings acknowledg- ed respect. .\s they have rolled over the wheel of man's destiny, au<i Ifoked into the" vault of the fu- ture, strange and holy sights hare presented them- selves. In accordance, and in perfect harmony with their predictions, empires have ri.sen and fal- len. Daniel with tliis gift foretold with predsion the fall of that powerful empire, (the Assyrian) the head of gold, the marvel of the world; over this the triumph of the Medes and Persians, upon the ruins of these that kingdom so renowned in the literary world, in whose midst sdeoce reached the zenith of its glory, and eloquence attained to a po- sition of power and respect, whose glory and boast- ed knowledge feH under the iron power of the Bo- man, and in tlie days of these kings the establish- ment of a kingdom, which was to overcome all oth- er powers, its own never to be destroyed. To make a proper estimate of the powerful effect of these prophedes upon the mind, it would be ne- cessary to go back to the time of their proclama- tion. and imagine the terror of the great king (Ne- buchednezer), trembling in awe of their truth, and fearful of that power which was to put an end to his own, and see »«ain the revelers of th»t awfnl ni^t, in which that proud kingdom d r o ^ its towering he«d, and the'rengeance of heaven was WTodced opOB Qttt as he looked upon that valley of dry bones, while he prophesied these b o n e s - b ^ to move, shake their dry crust; in their c«itre the marrow ia form- ed, upon the hard and sun-parched surface the flesh begins to grow, and a greater shaking aisues which causes them to unite, forming, horrible to relate, man. Oh! son of man, look upon this army of liv- ing beings, and let that icy heart catch a gUmpse of the force of Bible predictions upon the mind, and be no longer senseless or lost to its beauties. But in addition to these facts, with still greater pleasure can the delight, the bright hopes enter- tained of a coming Messiah, and the exalted privi- lege of seeing the expected deliverer be realized. Oh, with what constancy did those servants of God, ever calling to mind Bible declarations, watch for the appearance of the Prince of Peace, and who can estimate thejjower of thess truths upon their minds. And in studying the lessons of morality therein contained, I ask if one can go back, and read the burning words as they fell from the Di- vine Ups, and be unmoved faUing to let these teach- ings excite some enquiries in the mind. I ask, could a demon refuse to unlock liis sympathies, or at least find some example worthy of study, or catch an impression from these words'! could he without a shudder hear the awfiil denundations threatening his own ruin, and still be unmoved? Will the patience of Job, the faithfulness of Abra- ham, or the meekness of Moses find no imitation. Will the warlike genius of David excite no ambi- tion, or his poetry move to no observance of the wonderful works of God as described by him? Could no one ci-ave the wisdom of Solomon, or feel the prophetic fire of Isaiah? Aye, many will; for the devils themselves believe and tremble, and the mind that would fail to be moved by these things must be iron, and adamantine walls surround it. But one greater than these is brought to our no- tice, of whom the prophets did write, and at whose appearance many rejoiced; and the morning stars sang together. Kings trembled and uttered their cdicts for his destruction, who was to set up a kingdom designed to prevail over all others, and crush them to atoms. The ushering in of a new dispensation was at hand, and a work of great love entered upon, having for its end the eternal welfare of man, and the destruction of the works of ^ e Prince of Darkness. The New Testament now presents a fresh theme for investigation. And what mind can contemplate the price of the blood with which it was sealed; the purpose for which it was shed, and the precious side from which it flowed, and make no return of love to the donor, or at least heave a gigh or drop a tear in witnessing the groans which he uttered. Oh, thou senseless and perverse mind, unlock thoM iron bars, and permit for a moment imagination to have free range over the mighty universe, and as it proceeds, behold a God-like form sUnding on some lofty mountain's peak, as from his lips proceed words burning with love and instruction, such as man never uttered; as '-he spake as man never spake.' Descending from here, follow liim as he enters that great city, (JerusalemJ the admiring multitude spread out before him the leafy bower, and bend- ing branch, and although not a king of temporal affairs, he witnessed and received the congratula- tions of one. Witness again the troubled sea. as its rolling waves lift themselves in mad defiance of God. at the command of His voice are calmed, and all their troubles hushed. But alas! can one (could an Apostle believe it,) behold again, and see as the earth is darkened, the mountains shake their tower- ing tops, volcanic fires roll forth from the burning crater, while the blessed Lamb of God hangs on the accursed tree. Here is presented a picture well worthy of con- templation, and its effects ujKin the mind is with- out a parallel. The influence of the sight has pen- etrated the dark domains of Satan, and has mar- shaled his fiendish host in one united effort to over- throw the Lord of all. And as he lay entombed in the bosom of the earth, no doubt the shouts of these demons rang hi wild confusion over the con- fines of chaos. But when the Son of God had ri- sen victorious over death, hell, and the grave, thc.se rejoidngs of the legions of darkness were turned into groans. And as he ascended on high, angels welcome him to the right hand of his Father. The heavenly hosts sing loud hosannas, and cast their glittering crowns before Him, who had died, but then reigned. In meditating upon these facts, and receiving .such as undeniable truths, the heart is often tnelted, and falls before God in confusion, un- der the power of the Gospel, shakes off the fetters of sin, and ever rejoices in realizing the effects of Bible doctrincs upon the miod. The power of which has shaken the throne of the despot, has overturned the powers of this world, and upon their broken fragments reared the standard of Prince Immanuel. John, with a prophetic eye, kioking down the stream of time, drew a picture of the powerful ef- fect wliich these things would produce upon the mind, which the imagination can scarcely grasp. Compared with his description of the New Jerusa- lem, all nature fonas but an object of the moment, and immediately sinks into insignificance. The shining orbs of heaven form not ei cn a faint found- ation upon which to predicate a comparison, as its glory surpasses the conception of the human mind. No earthly throne presents a conceivable repre- sentation of that throne, which is decked with gci'.is and studded with jasper and emerald. No rainbow's diversified colors, of that one which wreaths the seat of God. No earthly music gives us ati idea of the charms of those nielodies with which the angels of Heaven sing praises to the Lamb, and whose harjis are tuned with golden strings. But the hope of one day fully realizing the beanty, and joy of this glorious world, fires the •milid with melting love- In view of these facts, we may be justified is the assertion that God has tmly spread out b«fbre th"c mind, a variety "of deli- cious, enticing, and binding truths and BiUical beauties, and upon these the heart's highest hopes and roost capadous powers are satiated. And as the delightful pag« of the Bible, with its charac- ters stamped in gold, and its lines shining forth as beacon lights to the soul, are presented to the imagination, its vision is illumed, and it soars aloft in the flight of time, and as it roams over the sweet flelds of BiWe poetry, every string of the mind is tuned as it catches the coral sounds of music, whether thundered forth in the detenninatiMi of the coundl of Heaven, expressed in the language, "let there be li^t," or received from the inspired lips, "Gc« «s tore." As the great fountain of light to the material world shines with its own fire, so the Bible, inde- pendent of ill other books, with its own beauties trictled down the slant of time, with effulgent rays sheddins the gkryof God uponerety object, lights up the mmd, clothes it with the babtUments of glory, aad charals it with the TisiOTS of «»taey, it siaga on ettrj hireetej lad i t w f t e d oo mttj and pebbly stream bring thdr effects and pour them into the soul. Golden treasures of knowledge, and a rich hope for future happiness, make it what God intended, (an abode of love) and for which it craves. Ah! fits it for the full enjoyment of the bright prospects presented in the Bible. And ere it leaves the shackles of mortality, it, as on eagle wings, soars to the mansions of the blessed, and draws with the pencil of fancy, a sketch of the habitation of God, and of the bliss of those who have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. _ _ C.ld Water Barti.t Female STmlaarT. Bro. Graves; This Institution closed its Fourth Annual Examination on the 22nd inst., having em- braced four days. It was our pleasure to attend as members of the Examining Committee, and wit- ness the creditable and scholar-like manner with which the pupils acquitted themselves in thdr va- rious branches of study. The Prindpal, Elder Jo- •seph R. Hamilton, is peculiarly gifted for the posi- tion he occupies. With long and tried experience he has deservedly won the character of a scholar and a christian, and by his urbane and gentlemanly tearing, has not only won the esteem and affection of all his pupils, but by superior order and well regulated disdpline as a teacher has secured the entire approbation and confidence of the Patrons. The pupils, by us, were submitted to a rigid scru- tiny, which tested their acquirements, promiscuous- ly., through the various studies: in a word, it was a thorough trial, and we unhesitatingly af&rm. as a Committee, that it surpassed any examination we have ever witnessed; ever calculated to reflect great credit upon the pupils, and at the same time evincing that they had been properly taught by the Principal and his valued .\ssociates in the Faculty of Instruction. There is generally a tendency to superficiality in teacher and taught that cannot be sufficient!}' de- plored. These sandy foundations are soon .swept away; the waters and floods of every day life im- dermine the superstructure and leave behind them chaos and ruin. Such consequences, we are satis- fied, will not result from the training in this Insti- tution whilst under the guidance and supervision of its present, worthy Prindpal. It is emphatically a school of study; of superior order and eminently deserves, and we bespeak for it an increased pa- tronage. To speak of all the classes is impractica- ble. Tho.se in Mathematics French and the Senior Class, acquitted themselves admirably. The per- formance of the young ladies in Music, evinced conaderablc skill. Professor Roksbacher is de- serving of great commendation. The healthfulness of the location, together with the convenience of the building, render this Institution eminently at- tractive; and we would say to those who are desi- rous of having their daughters and wards properly educated, send them here, confidently relying upon the utmost care being taken of them.

Graves;—The past conventional year was, as you are aware, one of great financial pressure. At one time the Board of Foreign Missions enter- tained serious apprehendsions that the scardty of money would so curtail contributions as material- ly to embarrass their treasury. We would record with gratitude to God, and as a fact evincmg the reliability of our churehes, that we were able to make an increase of our receipts of about S8,000. The sggregate for the year was rather over S30,000. This fell short of expenditures some £2.000. but the deficit was so much less than we had feared that we felt greatly relieved. Another cause of gratitude is found in the increased prosperity of our mi.ssions. At Shanghai, in Liberia, and in Cen- tral Africa, n e werft permitted to report the con- version of souls. More than one hundred a.id fifty were baptized during the year. Our prospects of success are cheering a t nearly every station, and our work is rapidly increasing in its demands. In supporting the mission recently eslablished at Sirea I.eon, and in sending out additional Mission- aries to China and Central Africa, we shall require for the current year, an increase of funds not less than fifteen tkousimii dollars. Now dear brother we ask your aid, through you wide circulating paper, in calling the attention of the churches to the necessity for this increased demand. We have the men ready to go, and we cannot, we do not re- fuse to send them. Trusting in the God of Mis. sions, and in reliance upon the churcnes we can but attempt to meet the pressing demand for more laborers in the field. Several of those who aro ex- pected to go out, are from Tennessee. While the Lord is stirring up the hearts o6 their sons to give themselves to this work, will not the brethren and sisters of the State, make a generous, noble effort to sustain the Board in .sending them on this mis- sion of love? Let none fear that thereby any home interest will suffer. The cause is one. And the more we do for the heathen, the more shall we be blessed at home. ' He that watcreth, shall be watered also himself."' The entire history of Christianity shows that the prosperity of the churches is proportioned to their efforts to extend the influence of the gospel. But 1 must close. Affectionately, yours in Christ, A. M. POTXOKXTEE, Cor. Sy. F. M. R S. B. C. Tor the TenncEaee Baptist. Beo. Gbuves:—I drop you this note just to say that I wish you or some one of your readers to do me quite a favor. But first let me say that some years ago, in debate with Rev. R. Burrow, I en- countered in the hands of Mr. B. a copy of Wes- ley's Notes, making Mr. Wesley say on the fourth verso of the sixth chapter of Romans, simply, "alluding to the andent manner of baptizing,"' and leaving out the words '-by immersion." Now this fact I have sometimes spoken of publidy, not by way of censuring Mr. B., who was of course inno- cent in the matter, bat simply to show that Mr. Wesley had been curtailed of his full expression on that subject. Now the above has been called in question by a Methodist preac^r, and I wish you my brother to procure, if you can, the •'mtililaled''' book, and send it to me by mail, or will any of your readers, do me this great favor—send to Macon, Missisappi—and I will either return the book or send the cash by return mail. Plca-se have this thing promptly attended (o. will youT The favor of your triumph over the ".\lBes" his reached us here, and we rejotce with you, but wc shall never be able, I fear to get anothCT Meth- odist preacher to discuss those questions. I stand ready to take them any time. Finally, Sr, put your readers up to get me that book. Or will some neighbor of Mr. Burrows, ask him to be 80 kind as to pat me on the track of the copy, he had, or send me astatement that be had in the ftebate with me in Salem, Mississippi, a eopy wift fiwilirordileft out. fn^xaiS^ "" ** wJBMOaB* Americaa Bikle ralta. Bible Operations in Gtrman^—A TlSUing Letter from Brother Oncken—Persecutioi^f a Colpor- teur of the American Bible Union ii^fianovcr and Bremen. ^ HAMCRG, 1 *tnf, 1855. Wm. H. "WrctOFF, Esq., Secretary ojl^e Ameriam Bible Union, Keic York. * My dear Broiler,—In my last I pijSmised to fur- nish you with a full statement of th^ expulsion of Brother Koch, tlie Colporteur of the fiible Cnion, both by the Hanoverian and BremcJ authorities: the following contains the particulars. I have also sent a copy to Dr. Steane, the Secreiery of the So- ciety. for the Vrndication and Protection ol Religious Liberty in London, and I hope, that bc'h your Board and that of the above Sodety, wi? adopt such measures, as shall, under God, preveij similar acts of persecution for the future. ^ During the short time Bro-Jier Ko^i labored at Lehe and Bremerhaven, he sold and d5.tributed not only a large number of Scriptures ari' Tracts, but he also preached the word in sniall(_^ and larger assemblies, nor were his labors in vaitfm the Lord. Much attention to the truth was rais 1 among the people, and some precious souls were won for the Saviour. But the Priesthood, asofo 1, were the first to oppo.se tha Gospel, and at th( r instigation the authorities have disgraced themse es, by doing the Devil's work. I regret tliis the ^orc, in refer- ence to the Bremen Beputdic, as vii have up to this afiair with Brother Koch been always- treated with great lenity, and I would fain ho^ that, if powerful representations are made of this caSe to the Bremen Senate, the local authorities of Bremer- haven may be instructed to show the same respect and grant the same protection to our Colpor- teurs as that enjoyed by the Methodist and Luthe- rans. Your Colporteur, Brother Meyer, irho labors in thedty of Hanover and the surrounSng villages, and who passed throng a course of iiTStruction with our missionary students, from Janujuy up to this month, left us yesterday, to resume his labors in his former sphere. He has gained the love and con- fidence of all the brethren here, by his truly ChrLs- tian deportment, and the instructionfe«'-ceive>l will under God, make him an invaluable laborer for the future. I have added another Brother to thi^list of your Colporteurs. Brother Poleker, who to labor at Flensburg. in S^hleswig. For the pjfeent he will commence his operations in conjcnctfc with our tru-stworthy and e-vperienced Broth-.fccblesder at Schleswig. and when thoroughly init Jted into the work, will procced to the above p k S . i would have appointed two or three other bnfhren for the Bible Union but 1 am still in advance f * the Society, notwithstanding the very prompt rS^ittanoes you have made. Brother Windolf is now inccsi-santV engaged in the good work, more ospedally in tlie hartKir and among the emigrants. lie also rend-Ts^s essential services in preaching at our stations." To yoursel f, the Board, and all why ia ve so nobly contributed towards the cause in G^^any, I feel greatly indebted for the prompt ani*QTowerful aid we havederiveil from the Union. 1 fj^st, that our dear brethren will still remember u.sl'jnd help the good work here, to the utmost of thc4^ ability. As there are now frequent opportunities of giving Bills of Exchange, drawn on your Treasnrj'. to advan- tage, I would beg you to acq saint me when and to what amount I may draw on Br. Dea. Colgate for future remittances. With much love _to yourself. Brother Buck bee, and all the members the Board. Ever vour affectionate Brotbc 8.& J. < ^OxcnEN. Brother Koch's Ovm .4fcoi/n( of His ^secutions— Report of F. IF. Koch, Cilportew ^the .imen- can Bible Vnioii—Tronslatnl by Mir-.'Mfin saret A. Oncken. Soon after my arrival at L;hc, wher^ purposed commencii:g my labors as Colporteur jjf the Amer- ican Bible Union, I endeavored to s t r i ^ the sanc- tion of the Judicial Circuit of Stade.^ Until the arrival of an answer to my requests in. 'his matter, 1 labored on my own responability, tAl met with success so encouraging, that most eamyUy I hoped for the desired sanction of tlie autb<»ities. But alas! no sooner did the object I had in ^I'TV become known, than the permission of rcside^icc for haL'-a- year, already granted me, was with(^'jn, and no other explanation given than this: will not have you here." The further sale of Bibles and distribution of tracts was at the same Uioe prohib- ited. A second jietition I now !«:dressed to the royal ministry at Hanover, and, until their df^i-sion should reach me. I took up my abode at Bremerhaven where I was so fortuuate as to rectivc permissi'm from the magistrate to act, as Bible-rilporUur I'or three months in the totvn acd harlxjr. At the ex- piration of a fortnight, however, this C'JSce.<Gion was again annulled, owing to the discover^nade of iny being a Baptist; nor could my repr^ntations of the bles-sings attending Bible drculat§n, nor of the sacrifices made for this cau;e by the ?;feety which employs me, effect a mitigation of thc^lrerce; '-You must quit the place." In the racar'while, an an- swer from the ministry reached me, corroborating the proceeding of the Circuit of Stade, and nothing remained me but to make a Inal appeal to His Maj- esty the King of Hanover. My steps were now directed to Bremen, where I made inquiry whether 1 could legally enter a pro- test against the violent measures adopted again-st me; but this, it soon became evident to me, would prov'e more '-lawful ' than "expedient .'' Thtis cut off fi-om all direct means of labor, I rptnmed to Le- he. in tlie opacity of shoioien to nr. Knsche. a Christian friend, who gave me suiHcint leisure to enable me to conduct the regular Services of the Baptist Church here. At xhe end of another fort- night, however, I recdved a smnmotis to thejodi- dal Court. T'here 1. was questioned rt^ardijig my occupatkin, and stated I was in the emptoy of Mr. Kusche, and that my leisnra hours were at my own dispose- But DO favor was granted mc. "These are mere evasions and trickery," wap theiepW- "How do you employ these leisure Jurars?" I feuld not but acknowledge the act which. I weU SN^'j would again draw down upon me the veng^ce of "the powers that be." "Who has authW»d yon to preach?" said my interrogator, "it if ?migance for a mason to take upon himself the ofl^-f of clergy- man: it would be better for you to i ep in your proper sphere, than to go about the lUads of the people" " As regards my pennision to preach," I replied," it is included in my o ^ of Bible colpor- -teur; but besides tWs, I «fer to the caU given me byflie Baptist Church of this place, and tothelaw of the land whidi does aot ptohilat oi» meetings ti Further, it is true, I am by tradeia mason, yet I do not hesitate to preach the g o ^ .

At the same time I stated, thatillvliB are sent out as missionaries or colportairs in Ger- many, undergo a course of preparatory training at Hamburg. "Ehe amount of my salary was then asked, ac- companied with the insinuation that probably the hope of gain was the ruling motive of my religiana zeal. "When my evidence on this point had been taken, the examinatian was pnded,—an examina- tion mads only pro forma, as my sentence, which was at once read to me, had doubtless been prepar- ed before. My continued residence at Lehe was again strictly prohibited, and the threat added, that unless 1 quitted the town before evening, I should be transported by gend'armes. All remonstrance on my part was vain, and not even time suSdent was granted me to collect the books which I had left at vanous houses. Mr. Kusche was threatened with severe punish- ment, were he again to permit religions meetingB to be held at his house, and two brethren in his employ were, like myself commanded to leave Lehe, 'be- cause they are Baptists." An unfavorable refdy to my petition to the King amved, April 27th, and nothing therefore is now left me, but to vacate the field until ;he Lord shall have prepared the way for me, and put to naught the counsel of his .enemies.

[Notwithstanding such hindrances and difficul- ties, brother Koch lost no opportumty for prosecu- ting his labors as Bible-oolportenr, until his expul- sion from Bremerhaven, Bremen, and Lehe.

' We deem such baptism null and void First, because a person that has not been hiiptizfd must be disqualified to administer baptism to others, and espedally if he be also unordaijied. Second, be- cause to admit such baptism as void, would make void the ordinaices of Christ, throw contempt on his authority and tend to confusion. For if baptism be not necessarv for an administrator of it, neither can be for church communion, which is an inferior act, and if such baptism be void, then ordination is necessary contrary to Acts XH' 23: Tim.

• s sn r r r t o tbb ceoss of chbist .

Far many ictdi of aion. I hare told you n}lm and mm. tcS ym rcen weeping, that tftey are the tatmses of the mas af Christ. Phi l , m : 18.

" i r e j o a not r e i d j to sav perhaps Paul, in ut-t a m g this language, labored under an erroneous imprtssionl Do not your minds almost inrolun-

"tuilf condude that none o a be enemies of the cross of Christ! Do you not find yourselves ex-claiming, this is a most uncharitable indictment of hnman nature, fallen though it be! Ah, my friends! Paul labored under no mistake. He spoke the words of truth and soberness. There -K-ere in his

- day, and there i r e now enemies of the cross. The mfictment he makes out is as erne as inspiration can render i t . But who arc enemies of the crossT Win any admit that thty are justly chargeable with this enmity? I t cannot be denied that those guilty of impous hostility to the cross arc di-sinclined to acknowledge i t . Hence it is necessary for a min-. iater of the gospel to delineate the characters of those Trho are e n ^ e s of the cross. This is my pnsen t object.

1. 'Who ake thb esevxes o r m s cuora op CaHHT?

I answer, 1 . Those vho deny the expiatory na ture of his

death. That the Savior become obedient unto d a t h t h a t i e might make an atonanent for sin is snscsptifale of abundant proof. I refer yon to the fellowing passages: "He was wounded for our transgressions, he was braised for our iniquities: the chastisement of onr peacc was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.^ '-TKa is the Wood of the New Testament, which is shed for many, for the remisaon of sins." "Behold the Lamb of God who taketh away the sin of the world." '•'Whom God hath, set for th to be a propitiation through faith in Ka Wood. • • • That he might be jus t and the justifier of him tha t beHereth in Jesus."' '•Christ hath redeemed us from the cnrse of the law being made a curse for us ." '-Once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the saaif ice of himself." "'Who nis own self bare onr sins in his own IxHiy on the tree. ' 'Herein is lore, not tha t we loved God, but that he loved us. and sent his son to be the propitiation for our sins."

R ia manifest from these passages that the death of Christ was sacriiidal. He shed his blood as a propitiary oferingi He endured the agonies of the cross that he might sustain the authority of the fivine law—satisfy the demands of divine" justice —and preserve untarnished the honor of the divine throne in the salvation of lost sinnersl To make

" atonement for sin was the great object of the Mes-siah's mcamation and death. Those, therefore, who deny the doctrine of atonement are enemies to the 0053. They may say, as Sodnians do. that Jesus died as a martyr to the truth, or, as Unita-rians do, that he died to manifest God's benevo-lence to man—but if they divest the death of Christ of to expiatory character, they are enemies of his cross. They lob the cross of i ts chief gloiy. •When ever this is done i t may be said in t ruth, • i ln enemy hath done this."

2 . Those vha reject the salvation of Jesus Christ.

This salvation was purchased by the blood shed on the cross, Calvary was the theatre on which was acted the awful tragedy which laid a firm basis for the hopes of a dying world. 'When the dark cloud of heaven's wrath, gathering all its blackness, dischai^ed its fearful contents on the head of Jesus of, Nazareth, the light of hope dawned on ruined man. In the language of a fine wnte r : - The cross recrived the thunder from the thrcatemng cloud, m d gave sunshine to the uni-crsc."

The offer of salvation is made through the blood of the cross. '-'God was in Christ reconcilmg the world unto himself."' All his merdfcl manifesta-tioiis to man are made through the cross. But for the death of J s u s there would have been no sal-vation for our apostate race. Ah tliink, impeni-tent anner, what i t cost the Savior that the offer of salvation might bemadeto-youl I t did not cost him ^ v s r and gold, and gems, and pearls and treasuira of anpires—but his blood—his heart 's bloof

" This WI3 eompsEsion like a God, That when the Savior knew,

The price uf pardon wax big blioti. His pity ne'er withdrtTv."

None but the enenies.of the cross can set at the salvafion procured b y the Redeemtr s

Wood:'' Andwhat enmity must they feel*, infernal, and worse Maa mfemal! For Satan in tempting s m e i s to aie salvation of Christ, tempts them to do what he has never done himself. Noth-ing but enmity to the cross induces a refusal to be saved by the giorioua Eedcemer who died thereon.

3. Thou trho rove sin, (wrf vkosc afeclims are placed an the world.

The cross is the grand antagonist of sin. It was , _ai!Sted to demdisH ain. Sin is the great work of

the &vil, and "for this purpose the Son of God was manifested that he might destroy the works of the-deriL The evil of sm appears in the cross. I ts tmpihide iswrit len far more legiTrly in the &vior3 blood than in the. damnation of the finally nnpenitent. No man ever leams the la^^on which the cross teaches without hating sin. The enemies of the crass s tow their enmity in their love of sin.

' The-snmify and the love go hand in hand. The enmity neror ceases till the hjve of s ia is destroyed. 01 ye lovQS of yon are enemies o£ tho cross of J b o s . I h»Te refiared to a lore of the world. TUa ia incompatible with friendship for the cross. There ia somethiag in the cross adapted to expel the loTB of tihfi world from the heart. Wha t says F u l l ' ^ o d forbid that I shooid g i o ^ save in the

one Lord Jesns Christ by which tlie world is c n c i f i e d t o m e a i i d l to thewor ld ." I t is the cross

' wiach cmdfiea eur lore t £ the world, and until this cradflxioii takes place there ia enmity to the cross. l a Tiev of t h e e considerations hew evident that those v h a lore sin u i 4 the world ore enemies of the cross.

- 4 . Vust vho do net a m f U f y the prttxpts of the gospei

TMs point has been, in somedegreej antidpated, b i t i t deservesto'be more prominently set forth.

my commandments." Those who love Jesus will exhiWt their love in making a public profession of aUegiimce to him m baptism—in attending public worship—in commemorating his death—in promot-ing his cause—in Uvmg uprightly before tiie world, 4e . "For the grace of God that bringeth balvation, teaches us that denying all ungodliness and world-ly lusts, we should live soberiy, righteously and p d l y in this present world." The gospel abounds in precepts. When we love the cross and glory in it, will we not obey ftese prccepts? And if we do not, is not ou ; disobedience evidence of our enmity? Most certainly. I t foUows, therefore, that those who do not exemplify the precepts of the gospel are enemies of the cross of Christ.

I I . THE CNHEASOJJASLK.VESS AXD CHUIIX.ILITT OP THIS EN-MTTT.

I argue its unfcasonableucss and criminality from the fact, that

1. The cross displnys tki love of God in the most astonhking immner. That "God is love"" is the snhKmest proposition ever submitted to the consid-eration of men or angels. To prove this proposi-tion true, creatifin and Providence supply numer-ous arguments, but the cross fnrniilies the grand ' argument, or rather the ovcrwhelm'mg demonstra-tion. If ever a truth was demonstrated, the love of God to man was demonstrated when the cross was crectcd. Look a t the expiring Jc . "^ of Naza-reth—there is incarnate love—there fee philanthro-py of heaven shines forth in all its s t r e n g t h -strength competent to raise t h e sinner from tht deep sorrows of the fall to the extatic joys of tlie throne of God. The cross is the cxponant of God's love to man. How unreasonable then is enmity to the cross! Ahd the enmity is as criminal as unreasonable. The deepest elements of crimin^ity are to be found in this enmity. Now is it strange that the pen of inspiration has written:—' If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be ac-cursed. the Lord cometh."' Enmity to the cross

The l a n a u c . af thr Bible npoa the ailBd «/ Maa.

is the precurser of a richly deserved damnation.

— The pioas on earth and the rcdcc-^cd in heaven lave the cross and glory in it.

The predous doctrines of the cross ha\ e chccred many a sad heart. Many a burdened sinner has loss his bunlen while viewing the cross. Christians have gloried in it in life and death. Much of the best blood that ever ran in human veins has been shed m honor of the cross.

The ransomed before the throne recur to the blood of the cross as the price of tbeir redemption. To Him who was oncc the illustrious sufiercr of the cross they say, with adwing gratitude and love. "Thou wast slain and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood." This is the language of all the blood purchased and blood-washed hosts on high—a multitude which no man can number. How unreasonable then is enmity to the crossl The enemy of the cross is the enemy of that which ^ the pious on earth and all the redeemed in heaven love. He is the enemy of what angels contem-plate with the profoundest interest and from which they derive their best and sublimest conceptions of the character of God. Is it not unreasonable for men to indulge enmity against that which angels love' And how criminal tool Alas, the enemy of the cross is the enemy of that which alone can pacify the troubled consdencc—conccal human guilt— solace the spint in the day of adversity—bridge the gulf of death—encircle the grave with a halo of glory—and open the gate of heaven for the ran-somed of the Lord. 'Who can deny the criminality of s-ach enmity as this?

3. While this enmity continues it prccludcs the possibility of salvation.

There is no other medium of salvation but the cross. Mercy comes to man through the blood of Immanuel alone. "Other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ." The atonement of Calvary fumislies the only rea.sons why God can save a sinner. At the cross alone can God atid the sinner meet in friendship. The cross like Jacob's ladder connects heaven and earth. Is it not manifest that the sinner while an enemy of the cross can never be saved by it! The enmity must be .sUin- There must be reconciliation to God through Jesus Christ.

Is it unreasonable and criminal for a sinner to destroy his soul? to exclude himself from all par-tidpation in the mercy of God' to plant tliom^ in his dying pillow? to bar the gate of heaven against his own admittance? to make so far as he is con-cerned, the hallelojahs of Paradise inaudiMe, and its bright glories invisible? There is enmity to the cross unreasonable and criminal; for it does all this. Nce<i I say more in proof of the iinrea-sona-hlencss and criminality of this eniniiy'

BES-UIKS.

1. How great, how appalling is the ilcj^raTity of maul History bears testimony that incn have been the enemies of their country—the enemies of their fathers, their mothers, their brothers, thi-ir sisters, t h d r drives, their children—but all this is not so frightful a demonstration of depravity a.s enmity to the cross. The human race might well feci dis-honored if only one of its members were the my of the cross- Alas the enmity of which I have spoken rankles m the hearts of millions!

2. How deeply humbled should christians Iwl They were once enemies of the cross. They were once on the way to hell and would be on their way thither now if God had not interposed by his grace. Ah christian friends, if you ever feel the risings of pride in your hearts, remember you were formerly enemies of the cross- This thought will abaiw you before the Lord.

3. Many professors of religion are enemies of the cross. Paul says in the te*t '-many tro/i ," 4c. There is, I presume, reference to nominal christians. I do noir wonder that the apostle wept. And there was eloquence in his tears. In the afiecting reca-pitulation of his trials in H Cot. XI Chap, it is not intimated that he wept when he suffered from "hunger and thirst, cold and nakedness," nor when he "five times received forty stripes save one"— "thrice was beaten with rods, stoned once," 4c. He had no tears to shed over personal sufferings a n d caUmit i^ ; but when he remembered that many who professed to love Jesus were enemies of his otiss. It broke his mighty heart, and he wept like a fond mother over the d ^ t h of her first-born. The great ^spostle in tears! "What a spectacle!

The eneiny of the cross is his own enemy. Yes his o t o worst enemy. He who i n d u l g e en-mity to the croM not only despises the love which provides .for its erection—arid insults the Lamb of God who died thereon, but is hostile to his own best interests. He virtnafly hales his soul—hates hap-piness—hates salvation. AU this ia involved in o imi ty to the cross. ' Strange thing for a man to be his o.wn enemy! nothing is more common.

Delivered by Robert IF. Morehead [a student in the Sophomore class )attke first annual eraminalicm of the students of Bethel High School; Russellville A'l,., June 21, 1855. The mind develops itself in being made subser-

vient to outward objcots. It is truly of an elastic material, and that too of such a nature, as often to become brittle. The great outward influence,"!, which are scattered over the universe, strike the mind with an overpowering awe. Of the causes which prepuce su:h efl'ects upon the mind, much has been said, and much more might, at le^st, be imagined. Put to say nothing of these, i t - i s^g^ plain that ou mary occasions, the mind wonders to catch the distant in preference to the nearest ol>-ject; and that thu presentation of the glimmering rays of the remote fill it with rapturous delight, <ausing it to ruse from the steady gaze of the pre-seut aiid soar inUi the mysterious vault of the fu-ture.

I fon the sacrcil pages of inspiration are inscri-bed the glowing scenes of tlie i«ist, the delightfiil path of the present, and the beautiful prospects of the future. Ttio.se of the past cnrich the mind, tho.sc of the prestnt illume its vision, giving it to-gether with those of the future a delirious sight into the fruits of eternity, as seen wafting over the rich fields of imroeasily.

From its every Howtr, and from the rich lianquet arc inhaled precious odours. Upon these tlie mind feasts and basks in the sunbeams of their melody, wliile it is inspired with the poetry of the Bible. I ts pure strains of eloquence fire the soul, and en-liven every action of man. The principles therein contained cannot in any way be allied to vice.

But. in order to be more minute in describing th» influences which are brought to bear upon the mind in connection with the Bible, we will present a few facts, which being studied are likely to wield a mighty sway over the refined feelings of the same. The grandeur of a scene may paint itself upon the fancy without being in particular described. For instance In the beginning God created the heavens and earth. The works, ot each day are here speci-lied, but no paintings in vivid colors of the appear-ance, as one world after another is being placed m its proper orb; and was it the case that no imagina tion were permitted, with its extensive wandering."!, to unfold the mysterious picture of the creation, one dark, and obscured mass would staad arrayed before the mind, and its inllaence upon the same would be lost.

Let though, the beautiful scene, as imagination might draw the sketch, appear wrapt in glowing colors, and from one dark, chaotic, and conglomera-ted heap emerge forth the wheeling orbs of heaven, environed with clouds of dazzUng light: and the coldest and most tH:nighted mind would be ready to acknowledge some attractions. The mere idea that in a few days all nature underwent a mighty change, is too stupemlous to contemplate; as no other aspect could possibly produce such an cffect. The darkness wh;ch had l>efore overspread the uni-verse, might have presented a scene of horror even to the miiiJ of Utitj-. and such as the fee>ile pow-ers of man cannot grasp. But as this recedes and the burning orb which expels it, is being placed in the vault of heaven, one might imagine ten thou-sand other orbs a.5 they cease to revolve around in all their gilded biauty. with one accord sing prai.ses together, and give way for tlie rcccption of the Kin^ of day.

Behold again, as luountaiiLS rise, valleys sink down and rcccive into their bosom the swelling waves; and as the spoi tive fi.sh ilivides the rolling water-s, the herbs of the field may be seen shooting forth, living bcinfs iHOunding over the surface of the earth, and last, though by no means least, man comes forth, holding m his han<l rule and do-minion,; with an admiration unknown to his poster-ity he glanced in hurried confu.sion over the grand and majestir works spread out before him, and catched, by a flash of his eye. a boundless expanse in which he is eaf;er to soar. The powers of his mind are perhaps now unfolded, and these strange, though not visionary lares, bind them in ec5tacy.

Are not such effects produced upon the mind whenever these things are thus viewed ' and the sacred scripturcs ^ving the foundation for such, cause sincere adoration tJ) bum as live coals upon the altar of the heart. In all crcaticin there cannot be found the book (altbmgh it shines with the light of this] which coutams more sublime and fruitful themes fur investigation; giving at the same time such delicious feasts to the soul. For .the example already presented, forms but one of the numerous and glowing pictures printed on the pages of inspi-ration, which give.s of itself an indellible impress to the mnid.

Mount Sinai stamLs up btfore us roTorcd with clouds and wreathed with lightnings, the fire of Heaven lights up its towering top; in its midst moves the Great (lod of the universe; from his lips proceeds a stream of holy eloquence and didactic instruction. L'ndcr the power of hi.s province man's feeble fonn lies prostrate upon the earth, ki.ssing the footstool of his Majesty. The pr-sence of the Deity, on all occasions, affords a spcctade too aw-ful to contimplatc^ without having the ftelings en-listed to that pitch which cau.scs the mind to shrink and shudder with holy fear. What mind can then trace with care die histories of the God-fearing men of old, and forbear to enlist feelings in the subject presented in the Bible; or who can sit down and calmly drink in the streams of prophetic in-spiration, and forget dieir design.', or be blind to the purposes of heaven. Prophecies have in no i^e of the world liecn without notice. Before the prophet the knee ha.s bowed, and kings acknowledg-ed respect. . \ s they have rolled over the wheel of man's destiny, au<i Ifoked into the" vault of the fu-ture, strange and holy sights hare presented them-selves. In accordance, and in perfect harmony with their predictions, empires have ri.sen and fal-len. Daniel with tliis gift foretold with predsion the fall of that powerful empire, (the Assyrian) the head of gold, the marvel of the world; over this the triumph of the Medes and Persians, upon the ruins of these that kingdom so renowned in the literary world, in whose midst sdeoce reached the zenith of its glory, and eloquence attained to a po-sition of power and respect, whose glory and boast-ed knowledge feH under the iron power of the Bo-man, and in tlie days of these kings the establish-ment of a kingdom, which was to overcome all oth-er powers, its own never to be destroyed.

To make a proper estimate of the powerful effect of these prophedes upon the mind, it would be ne-cessary to go back to the time of their proclama-tion. and imagine the terror of the great king (Ne-buchednezer), trembling in awe of their truth, and fearful of that power which was to put an end to his own, and see »«ain the revelers of th»t awfnl n i ^ t , in which that proud kingdom d r o ^ its towering he«d, and the 'rengeance of heaven was WTodced opOB Qttt

as he looked upon that valley of dry bones, while he prophesied these b o n e s - b ^ to move, shake their dry crust; in their c«itre the marrow ia form-ed, upon the hard and sun-parched surface the flesh begins to grow, and a greater shaking aisues which causes them to unite, forming, horrible to relate, man. Oh! son of man, look upon this army of liv-ing beings, and let that icy heart catch a gUmpse of the force of Bible predictions upon the mind, and be no longer senseless or lost to its beauties.

But in addition to these facts, with still greater pleasure can the delight, the bright hopes enter-tained of a coming Messiah, and the exalted privi-lege of seeing the expected deliverer be realized. Oh, with what constancy did those servants of God, ever calling to mind Bible declarations, watch for the appearance of the Prince of Peace, and who can estimate thejjower of thess truths upon their minds. And in studying the lessons of morality therein contained, I ask if one can go back, and read the burning words as they fell from the Di-vine Ups, and be unmoved faUing to let these teach-ings excite some enquiries in the mind. I ask, could a demon refuse to unlock liis sympathies, or at least find some example worthy of study, or catch an impression from these words'! could he without a shudder hear the awfiil denundations threatening his own ruin, and still be unmoved? Will the patience of Job, the faithfulness of Abra-ham, or the meekness of Moses find no imitation. Will the warlike genius of David excite no ambi-tion, or his poetry move to no observance of the wonderful works of God as described by him? Could no one ci-ave the wisdom of Solomon, or feel the prophetic fire of Isaiah? Aye, many will; for the devils themselves believe and tremble, and the mind that would fail to be moved by these things must be iron, and adamantine walls surround it.

But one greater than these is brought to our no-tice, of whom the prophets did write, and at whose appearance many rejoiced; and the morning stars sang together. Kings trembled and uttered their cdicts for his destruction, who was to set up a kingdom designed to prevail over all others, and crush them to atoms. The ushering in of a new dispensation was at hand, and a work of great love entered upon, having for its end the eternal welfare of man, and the destruction of the works of ^ e Prince of Darkness.

The New Testament now presents a fresh theme for investigation. And what mind can contemplate the price of the blood with which it was sealed; the purpose for which it was shed, and the precious side from which it flowed, and make no return of love to the donor, or at least heave a gigh or drop a tear in witnessing the groans which he uttered. Oh, thou senseless and perverse mind, unlock thoM iron bars, and permit for a moment imagination to have free range over the mighty universe, and as it proceeds, behold a God-like form sUnding on some lofty mountain's peak, as from his lips proceed words burning with love and instruction, such as man never uttered; as '-he spake as man never spake . '

Descending from here, follow liim as he enters that great city, (JerusalemJ the admiring multitude spread out before him the leafy bower, and bend-ing branch, and although not a king of temporal affairs, he witnessed and received the congratula-tions of one. Witness again the troubled sea. as its rolling waves lift themselves in mad defiance of God. at the command of His voice are calmed, and all their troubles hushed. But alas! can one (could an Apostle believe it,) behold again, and see as the earth is darkened, the mountains shake their tower-ing tops, volcanic fires roll forth from the burning crater, while the blessed Lamb of God hangs on the accursed tree.

Here is presented a picture well worthy of con-templation, and its effects ujKin the mind is with-out a parallel. The influence of the sight has pen-etrated the dark domains of Satan, and has mar-shaled his fiendish host in one united effort to over-throw the Lord of all. And as he lay entombed in the bosom of the earth, no doubt the shouts of these demons rang hi wild confusion over the con-fines of chaos. But when the Son of God had ri-sen victorious over death, hell, and the grave, thc.se rejoidngs of the legions of darkness were turned into groans. And as he ascended on high, angels welcome him to the right hand of his Father. The heavenly hosts sing loud hosannas, and cast their glittering crowns before Him, who had died, but then reigned. In meditating upon these facts, and receiving .such as undeniable truths, the heart is often tnelted, and falls before God in confusion, un-der the power of the Gospel, shakes off the fetters of sin, and ever rejoices in realizing the effects of Bible doctrincs upon the miod. The power of which has shaken the throne of the despot, has overturned the powers of this world, and upon their broken fragments reared the standard of Prince Immanuel.

John, with a prophetic eye, kioking down the stream of time, drew a picture of the powerful ef-fect wliich these things would produce upon the mind, which the imagination can scarcely grasp. Compared with his description of the New Jerusa-lem, all nature fonas but an object of the moment, and immediately sinks into insignificance. The shining orbs of heaven form not ei cn a faint found-ation upon which to predicate a comparison, as its glory surpasses the conception of the human mind.

No earthly throne presents a conceivable repre-sentation of that throne, which is decked with gci'.is and studded with jasper and emerald. No rainbow's diversified colors, of that one which wreaths the seat of God. No earthly music gives us ati idea of the charms of those nielodies with which the angels of Heaven sing praises to the Lamb, and whose harjis are tuned with golden strings. But the hope of one day fully realizing the beanty, and joy of this glorious world, fires the •milid with melting love- In view of these facts, we may be justified i s the assertion that God has tmly spread out b«fbre th"c mind, a variety "of deli-cious, enticing, and binding truths and BiUical beauties, and upon these the heart's highest hopes and roost capadous powers are satiated. And as the delightful p a g « of the Bible, with its charac-ters stamped in gold, and its lines shining forth as beacon lights to the soul, are presented to the imagination, its vision is illumed, and it soars aloft in the flight of time, and as it roams over the sweet flelds of BiWe poetry, every string of the mind is tuned as it catches the coral sounds of music, whether thundered forth in the detenninatiMi of the coundl of Heaven, expressed in the language, "let there be l i ^ t , " or received from the inspired lips, "Gc« «s tore."

As the great fountain of light to the material world shines with its own fire, so the Bible, inde-pendent of i l l other books, with its own beauties trictled down the slant of time, with effulgent rays sheddins the g k r y o f God upone re ty object, lights u p the mmd, clothes i t with the babtUments of glory, aad charals i t with t he TisiOTS of «» taey , i t siaga on ettrj hireetej l a d i t w f t e d oo mttj

and pebbly stream bring t h d r effects and pour them into the soul.

Golden treasures of knowledge, and a rich hope for future happiness, make it what God intended, (an abode of love) and for which it craves. Ah! fits it for the full enjoyment of the bright prospects presented in the Bible. And ere it leaves the shackles of mortality, it, as on eagle wings, soars to the mansions of the blessed, and draws with the pencil of fancy, a sketch of the habitation of God, and of the bliss of those who have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. _ _

Bro. Graves; This Institution closed its Fourth Annual Examination on the 22nd inst., having em-braced four days. I t was our pleasure to attend as members of the Examining Committee, and wit-ness the creditable and scholar-like manner with which the pupils acquitted themselves in t hd r va-rious branches of study. The Prindpal, Elder Jo-•seph R. Hamilton, is peculiarly gifted for the posi-tion he occupies. With long and tried experience he has deservedly won the character of a scholar and a christian, and by his urbane and gentlemanly tearing, has not only won the esteem and affection of all his pupils, but by superior order and well regulated disdpline as a teacher has secured the entire approbation and confidence of the Patrons. The pupils, by us, were submitted to a rigid scru-tiny, which tested their acquirements, promiscuous-ly., through the various studies: in a word, it was a thorough trial, and we unhesitatingly af&rm. as a Committee, that it surpassed any examination we have ever witnessed; ever calculated to reflect great credit upon the pupils, and at the same time evincing that they had been properly taught by the Principal and his valued .\ssociates in the Faculty of Instruction.

There is generally a tendency to superficiality in teacher and taught that cannot be sufficient!}' de-plored. These sandy foundations are soon .swept away; the waters and floods of every day life im-dermine the superstructure and leave behind them chaos and ruin. Such consequences, we are satis-fied, will not result from the training in this Insti-tution whilst under the guidance and supervision of its present, worthy Prindpal. I t is emphatically a school of study; of superior order and eminently deserves, and we bespeak for it an increased pa-tronage. To speak of all the classes is impractica-ble. Tho.se in Mathematics French and the Senior Class, acquitted themselves admirably. The per-formance of the young ladies in Music, evinced conaderablc skill. Professor Roksbacher is de-serving of great commendation. The healthfulness of the location, together with the convenience of the building, render this Institution eminently at-tractive; and we would say to those who are desi-rous of having their daughters and wards properly educated, send them here, confidently relying upon the utmost care being taken of them.

TOT the Tennpssee BaptiKt-Bho. Graves;—The past conventional year was,

as you are aware, one of great financial pressure. At one time the Board of Foreign Missions enter-tained serious apprehendsions that the scardty of money would so curtail contributions as material-ly to embarrass their treasury. We would record with gratitude to God, and as a fact evincmg the reliability of our churehes, that we were able to make an increase of our receipts of about S8,000. The sggregate for the year was rather over S30,000. This fell short of expenditures some £2.000. but the deficit was so much less than we had feared that we felt greatly relieved. Another cause of gratitude is found in the increased prosperity of our mi.ssions. At Shanghai, in Liberia, and in Cen-tral Africa, n e werft permitted to report the con-version of souls. More than one hundred a.id fifty were baptized during the year. Our prospects of success are cheering a t nearly every station, and our work is rapidly increasing in its demands.

In supporting the mission recently eslablished at Sirea I.eon, and in sending out additional Mission-aries to China and Central Africa, we shall require for the current year, an increase of funds not less than fifteen tkousimii dollars. Now dear brother we ask your aid, through you wide circulating paper, in calling the attention of the churches to the necessity for this increased demand. We have the men ready to go, and we cannot, we do not re-fuse to send them. Trusting in the God of Mis. sions, and in reliance upon the churcnes we can but attempt to meet the pressing demand for more laborers in the field. Several of those who aro ex-pected to go out, are from Tennessee. While the Lord is stirring up the hearts o6 their sons to give themselves to this work, will not the brethren and sisters of the State, make a generous, noble effort to sustain the Board in .sending them on this mis-sion of love? Let none fear that thereby any home interest will suffer. The cause is one. And the more we do for the heathen, the more shall we be blessed at home. ' He that watcreth, shall be watered also himself."' The entire history of Christianity shows that the prosperity of the churches is proportioned to their efforts to extend the influence of the gospel. But 1 must close.

Affectionately, yours in Christ, A. M. POTXOKXTEE,

Tor the TenncEaee Baptist. Beo. Gbuves:—I drop you this note just to say

that I wish you or some one of your readers to do me quite a favor. But first let me say that some years ago, in debate with Rev. R. Burrow, I en-countered in the hands of Mr. B. a copy of Wes-ley's Notes, making Mr. Wesley say on the fourth verso of the sixth chapter of Romans, simply, "alluding to the andent manner of baptizing,"' and leaving out the words '-by immersion." Now this fact I have sometimes spoken of publidy, not by way of censuring Mr. B., who was of course inno-cent in the matter, bat simply to show that Mr. Wesley had been curtailed of his full expression on that subject. Now the above has been called in question by a Methodist preac^r, and I wish you my brother to procure, if you can, the •'mtililaled''' book, and send it to me by mail, or will any of your readers, do me this great favor—send to Macon, Missisappi—and I will either return the book or send the cash by return mail.

Plca-se have this thing promptly attended (o. will youT The favor of your triumph over the ".\lBes" h i s reached us here, and we rejotce with you, but wc shall never be able, I fear to get anothCT Meth-odist preacher to discuss those questions. I stand ready to take them any time.

Finally, S r , put your readers up to get me tha t book. Or will some neighbor of Mr. Burrows, ask him to be 80 kind as to pat me on the track of the copy, he had, or send me astatement that be had in the ftebate with me in Salem, Mississippi, a eopy w i f t fiwilirordileft out. f n ^ x a i S ^

Bible Operations in Gtrman^—A TlSUing Letter from Brother Oncken—Persecutioi^f a Colpor-teur of the American Bible Union ii^fianovcr and Bremen. ^

HAMCRG, 1 * tnf , 1855. Wm. H. "WrctOFF, Esq., Secretary ojl^e Ameriam Bible Union, Keic York. *

My dear Broiler,—In my last I pijSmised to fur-nish you with a full statement of th^ expulsion of Brother Koch, tlie Colporteur of the fiible Cnion, both by the Hanoverian and BremcJ authorities: the following contains the part iculars . I have also sent a copy to Dr. Steane, the Secreiery of the So-ciety. for the Vrndication and Protection ol Religious Liberty in London, and I hope, that bc'h your Board and that of the above Sodety, wi? adopt such measures, as shall, under God, prevei j similar acts of persecution for the future. ^

During the short time Bro-Jier Ko^i labored a t Lehe and Bremerhaven, he sold and d5.tributed not only a large number of Scriptures ari ' Tracts, but he also preached the word in sniall(_^ and larger assemblies, nor were his labors in vaitfm the Lord. Much attention to the truth was rais 1 among the people, and some precious souls were won for the Saviour. But the Priesthood, a s o f o 1, were the first to oppo.se tha Gospel, and at th( r instigation the authorities have disgraced themse es, by doing the Devil's work. I regret tliis the ^orc, in refer-ence to the Bremen Beputdic, as vii have up to this afiair with Brother Koch been always- treated with great lenity, and I would fain h o ^ that, if powerful representations are made of this caSe to the Bremen Senate, the local authorities of Bremer-haven may be instructed to show the same respect and grant the same protection to our Colpor-teurs as that enjoyed by the Methodist and Luthe-rans.

Your Colporteur, Brother Meyer, irho labors in t h e d t y of Hanover and the surrounSng villages, and who passed t h r o n g a course of iiTStruction with our missionary students, from Janujuy up to this month, left us yesterday, to resume his labors in his former sphere. He has gained the love and con-fidence of all the brethren here, by his truly ChrLs-tian deportment, and the instructionfe«'-ceive>l will under God, make him an invaluable laborer for the future.

I have added another Brother to thi^list of your Colporteurs. Brother Poleker, who to labor at Flensburg. in S^hleswig. Fo r the pjfeent he will commence his operations in conjcnc t fc with our tru-stworthy and e-vperienced Broth-.fccblesder a t Schleswig. and when thoroughly init J t ed into the work, will procced to the above p k S . i would have appointed two or three other bnfhren for the Bible Union but 1 am still in advance f * the Society, notwithstanding the very prompt rS^ittanoes you have made. •

Brother Windolf is now inccsi-santV engaged in the good work, more ospedally in tlie hartKir and among the emigrants. l ie also rend-Ts^s essential services in preaching at our stations."

To yoursel f, the Board, and all why i a ve so nobly contributed towards the cause in G ^ ^ a n y , I feel greatly indebted for the prompt ani*QTowerful aid we havederiveil from the Union. 1 f j^s t , that our dear brethren will still remember u.sl'jnd help the good work here, to the utmost of thc4^ ability. As there are now frequent opportunities of giving Bills of Exchange, drawn on your Treasnrj'. to advan-tage, I would beg you to acq saint me when and to what amount I may draw on Br. Dea. Colgate for future remittances. With much love _to yourself. Brother Buck bee, and all the members the Board.

Ever vour affectionate Brotbc

J . < ^OxcnEN. Brother Koch's Ovm .4fcoi/n( of His ^secutions—

Report of F. IF. Koch, Cilportew ^the .imen-can Bible Vnioii—Tronslatnl by Mir-.'Mfin saret A. Oncken.

Soon after my arrival at L;hc, w h e r ^ purposed commencii:g my labors as Colporteur jjf the Amer-ican Bible Union, I endeavored to s t r i ^ the sanc-tion of the Judicial Circuit of Stade.^ Until the arrival of an answer to my requests in. 'his matter, 1 labored on my own responability, tAl met with success so encouraging, that most eamyUy I hoped for the desired sanction of tlie autb<»ities. But alas! no sooner did the object I had in I'TV become known, than the permission of rcside^icc for haL'-a-year, already granted me, was w i t h ( ^ ' j n , and no other explanation given than this: will not have you here." The further sale of Bibles and distribution of tracts was at the same Uioe prohib-ited.

A second jietition I now !«:dressed to the royal ministry at Hanover, and, until their df^i-sion should reach me. I took up my abode at Bremerhaven where I was so fortuuate as to rectivc permissi'm from the magistrate to act, as Bible-rilporUur I'or three months in the totvn acd harlxjr. At the ex-piration of a fortnight, however, this C'JSce.<Gion was again annulled, owing to the discover^nade of iny being a Baptist; nor could my repr^n ta t ions of the bles-sings attending Bible drculat§n, nor of the sacrifices made for this cau;e by the ?;feety which employs me, effect a mitigation of thc^lrerce; '-You must quit the place." In the racar'while, an an-swer from the ministry reached me, corroborating the proceeding of the Circuit of Stade, and nothing remained me but to make a Inal appeal to His Maj-esty the King of Hanover.

My steps were now directed to Bremen, where I made inquiry whether 1 could legally enter a pro-test against the violent measures adopted again-st me; but this, it soon became evident to me, would prov'e more '-lawful ' than "expedient .'' Thtis cut off fi-om all direct means of labor, I rptnmed to Le-he. in tlie opac i ty of shoioien to n r . Knsche. a Christian friend, who gave me suiHcint leisure to enable me to conduct the regular Services of the Baptist Church here. At xhe end of another fort-night, however, I recdved a smnmotis to thejodi-d a l Court. T'here 1. was questioned rt^ardijig my occupatkin, and stated I was in the emptoy of Mr. Kusche, and that my leisnra hours were at my own dispose-

But DO favor was granted mc. "These are mere evasions and trickery," wap theiepW- "How do you employ these leisure Jurars?" I feuld not but acknowledge the act which. I weU S N ^ ' j would again draw down upon me the v e n g ^ c e of "the powers that be." "Who has a u t h W » d yon to preach?" said my interrogator, " i t if ?migance for a mason to take upon himself the ofl^-f of clergy-man: i t would be better for you to i ep in your proper sphere, than to go about the lUads of the people" " As regards my pennision to preach," I replied," it is included in my o ^ of Bible colpor-- t eu r ; but besides tWs, I « f e r to the caU given me byf l ie Baptist Church of this place, and tothelaw of the land whid i does aot ptohilat o i» meetings

"Ehe amount of my salary was then asked, ac-companied with the insinuation that probably the hope of gain was the ruling motive of m y religiana zeal. "When my evidence on this point had been taken, the examinatian was pnded,—an examina-tion mads only pro forma, as my sentence, which was at once read to me, had doubtless been prepar-ed before. My continued residence at Lehe was again strictly prohibited, and the threat added, that unless 1 quitted the town before evening, I should be transported by gend'armes. All remonstrance on my part was vain, and not even time s u S d e n t was granted me to collect the books which I had left at vanous houses.

Mr. Kusche was threatened with severe punish-ment, were he again to permit religions meetingB to be held at his house, and two brethren in his employ were, like myself commanded to leave Lehe, ' be -cause they are Baptists."

An unfavorable refdy to my petition to the King amved, April 27th, and nothing therefore is now left me, but to vacate the field until ;he Lord shall have prepared the way for me, and put to naught the counsel of his .enemies.

[Notwithstanding such hindrances and difficul-ties, brother Koch lost no opportumty for prosecu-ting his labors as Bible-oolportenr, until his expul-sion from Bremerhaven, Bremen, and Lehe. He has, from November 1854, to April 1S55, circula-ted 200 Bibles and 223 Testnnent^; distributed 1,-300 tracts, and held numerous meetings.]

'•Answered in the affirmative." 17S7. "Pluladdphia Baptist Association, held

at New York, October 2d, M, 4th, and 5th. The first church in New York quiried. 'Whether a per-son applying to one of our chmzhes for admission as a member and satisfies us that he hashesn pre-viously baptized by immcioan, on a profession of his faith in Christ; but at the same time canfcEsrs, the person who admini-stered tlie ordinance was. at the time, ndther ordsined to the work of the min-istry, nor baptized himself by immersion, but only chosen and called by a religious sodety to cffiriate as their teacher a minister, should received." Four members appointed to report next year, and any other brother who may see proper "to deliver their thoughts in writing."' Beply 178S. Association meet in Philadelphia.

' We deem such baptism null and void First, because a person that has not been hiiptizfd must be disqualified to administer baptism to others, and espedally if he be also unordaijied. Second, be-cause to admit such baptism as void, would make void the ordinaices of Christ, throw contempt on his authority and tend to confusion. For if baptism be not necessarv for an administrator of it, neither can be for church communion, which is an inferior act, and if such baptism be void, then ordination is necessary contrary to Acts X H ' 23: Tim. I T 14; Tit- I 5, and our confession of faith. Third—of this opimon we find we own assodation in times past; who put a negative at such bapti-sm in 1729, 1731, 1744, 1749, and 17C8."

n - i r v i O w i n g to t..c dmuih of la-t year and the

l.ll'..ire of tbc corn crop, a much larger quantity ol

wiieat .iKTbaps dc-.iblt-j was sown than ev. r bi-fore.

lucky can now be, so far as wheat is coiicemcd, a

re pec able exporting S..atc. God has kindly dis-

a; pointed many of us. W e fearc-i th-at he would

cable tbe language of Scripture: - l ie h i t h not dealt

with u.i; after our sins, nor rewarded us according

to eur iniqiiities."

Iu view of Go-i's harvest blessmg, christians

..boiild op^-n their hearts and their purses. I refer

now spccial'.y to Kentucky, and say tbe foHowing

things;

1. Ministerscught to-be beiter supported. Very

few of them - live of the gospel "—perhaps fifteen

in the State. This is a sbarae. Many men who

i wo'jjd be useful are Compelled to teach 5-;bool or

till the kill or do Eomelbing else for a support

iVjvske. 0 yc churches to your duty. How little of

your wheat crop wotJd it take to support your

ministers!

2. There shc-uld be increased misaonary contri-

butions. K. ntucky i^, in a great degree, mission-

ary in theory, and anti-mis-sionary in practice-

The wealthy of Kentucky Baptists is amazingly

great- and v hat has ever been done for Mussions?

Sever more than enough to be ashamed uf.

C. More should be done for the Bible cause at

home and abroad. Have you stca Onck'-n's ap-

[.eal? 0 h. Ip the Apostle of Gertnany to circulate

the word of God.

4. Christian fathers should Rupply t^Jr-fancies
