to Elders orders, and snbseq^uently' ordained

tolic, was then to m y miud, of all feoughts

T h e past history of fee fsmili^ of Louis Na-

which, are, probably, not generally Imown to

our readers.

These two monarchs, now so cprtlially uni-

the Ottoman* empire, are bofe grandsons of

American ladies. These ladies were b o m and

If t h ^ thing, were ^aid by the editors of the Age and the Harbinger, we can easily imagine what was said by the rank and file of the Disciples. They everywhere mounted the act of co-operaUon and rode into transcendant importance, and brandished their scimeters most horridly over the heads of those Bap ^ Bevisioabts who denied their claims to ortho doxy.

This, Sir, is the mean, underhanded advantage ^ e n by your disciples aU over the South-Westem' Valley. Prior to becoming acquainted with the fact that the Bible Revision Association was used for a CampbeUite manufactoiy, I had defended the pro-priety, at least, the admiuibUnet, of the co-operaUon • ytt disclaiming that we thereby endorsed you and your foUowers as being evangelical, but seeing, hear-ing, and reading what I have, I am convinced that, as a body, your disciples are desUtute of honor, and have "rebuked them sharply" for this foul betrayal of our confidence. I have mainuined that co oper aUon in Kevision involved no compromise of our dis tmcave principles, and that it is not in the remotest B ^ . a tacit endorsement ou the part of Baptists of the evangelical character of the faith or the practices of those professed chrirtian. who aid iu the work, but that in all respects the members of the Bible Be ' vision Association are where they were before, free to oppose whatever they regard as unscripturid in die doctrines or pracUces of the several denomina-tiona to which co operating members beloog, and that a revisionist editor could do this without being obnoxious to the charge of being an "infected sheep." TJpon this ground I stood, and upon thU understand ing 1 have acted, opposing whatever I considered un-Bcriptural in the ^ h i n g aod pracUce of your disci-

"Tennessee Bsptist," shows that ite influence upon the Reformation is tremendously felt. Did you praise and flatter me, and commend my paper as you do some Baptist papers and editors, I should feel con-demned. When I wriu so as to please you and your disciples, I shaU leave the Baptist Church, if I aw an houett man. I hope, sir, you will never inflict so great an injury upon me as to praise my paper, and pretend to endorse my writings. You have irrevoca bly injured several ministers by so doing. I believe when you have been defeated, it is the revenge you t«ke. Bro. Broaddus and Meredith are examples.

I am happy to inform you that jour attacks upon the Tennessee Baptist are greatly promoting its cir-culation. Subscribers from all parts of the South, and even from the North, are pouring in. with words of cheer. Continue theni, sir, by all means, and you will ndly every Baptist in the Union to its support.

If Carson is correct Mr. Campbell is an i n f i d e l -disbelieving the gospel and renounciug the atone meut of Christ!

One more contrast before the reader pronounces Mr. Campbell as orthodox, and agreeing in the vital doc-trines of reUgion with Mr. Carson. What does Mr Campbell teach as the only way to come to Christ, or to meet with God in peace?

"Before we are justified in Christ [which we are the moment we come to him,] live in Christ, and fall pleep m Christ, we must be introduced or imm^rs^,! into Christ."

" I affirm then thai the first institution in which we can meet with God is the institution of baptism."

If we misrepresent Mr. Campbell, it is when we charge him with teaching that no one who has heard the gospel since the days of Christ's ascension, has ever lived a christian or died a christian, and consequently been saved in heaven, unless"having been immersed, and that loo in. the belief that the blood of Christ was actually brought in contact with his or her couscience ithUe under the water. Here is our argument. All who are saved in heaven must first be justified iu Christ and die in Christ. No per-»on can bejustifiediu C t o t or die in Christ unless having been immcrac<nn£o~rBH5t;tBEiiirore, no per-son can be saved in heaven ULless having been im-mersed. Is thU proof? According to the last quoU-tion, no man can meet God, unless he has met him in the institution of biq>tismll

The impression, you make in your article, is these men, as well aa Parlforspu, ^ughton.Hol and Others have endorsed you. I have said th caMot believe it, for what 2 know of the view, Williams and McClay causes mc to distrust your i mations r«pccting Stoughton and others.

I would that I colild recall his very words—I can give one point, fpr 1 shall never forget it. He said the absurdity of Jour system consisted in iU requiring the ej«AT*a i. e. the resunwtion of a sinner dead in trespSses and sins to a divine life, or his regeneration, ui be accomplished wnuotjT IUE ASBISTAXCE or THE UOLT epiair; while the Less WOBK, preserving the soul in that state of new life, could not be accomplished unless WITH TUB SKEIT'S aid!!

Brother McClay, when he conversed with me, did not consider you as settled in yonr theological yiews. ^ t j l ^ u l a t i s t in religion.

We in-ddaitany referred to ^ b our lakt' artide. But .we are not-don^ with it-yet There can Ije no miflenniam so hmg vi'the Papacy.con-tinoes to east; it is the giipat; master piece of heU; H ia war w i a God and man. The ad-Tocates of a millenniuin without the personal «a«nce of C3mst will not deny this. They

look for its destniotion in some way, particu-^ y by the providence of God. and the en-

lightening influence of a pare Christianity, But what saith the Scripture? Paul informs us. that the destruction of this wicked power will be effected by the personal presence andagen-cy of Christ when he comes to judge the world m rightousnesa. Paul is not speaking of a spiritual or providential coming, but of a per-sonal coming, as is evident from his ar<Tument. "Then ahaU that wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the brightness of his coming—2 Thess..2. 8. This wiU be -the day of Omst," or the day of judgment, which the Theasaloiions, thoaght wasnear "at hand the day "when the Lord Jesus.'shan be revel-ed from heaven with his mighty angels, in flaming fire taking vengence on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel" Ac, 2 Thess. 1: 7-10. It is the same day to which the apostle had reference in his first epistle. "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up t<^ether with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the and so shall we ever be with the Lord. But of the times and seasons, brethem, ye have no need that I write nnt^ you. For yourselves know perfectly, that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. For when they shaU say, peace and safety, then sudden destruction cometh upon tiiem, as travaaupon a woman with child; and they shaU not escape.—1 Thess. 4: 13-18. Now it is not generally denied by those who Oj wse oar vieWB of tbo milltaiiuaiu, that tha apostle here means a real personal, and glori-ous appearing of our Lord. It is so uniformily understood and quoted. But if the apostle measa a pexsocal coming in his first epistle, he means the same thing in his second; for he is speaking of the same event, as is evident from the whole passage, which is intended to correct the mistake of the ^Thessalonians as to the nearness of the advent. We see not how any one can deny that in both epistles, the apostle speaks of the personal coming of our Lord Jesus Christ; but if he does so speak then we are assured that this wicked power. Papacy or whatever it is, will continue to ex-ist so long as Christ remains in heaven, and win be destroyed at his coining "to take ven-gence upon all that know not God and obey not the goapd of our Lord Jesus Christ" The second c o m ^ of our Lord, therefore, must be by dear, h^ical, and unavoidable inference, pre-millenniaL

This view of the passage undjjr considera-tion ia confirmed by the import "and uniform use of words here translated, "the brightness of his coming." Te epipkanda Us parousias auiou. By the epiphany of his coming, or his appearing and coming. The Greek word epiphany, - ^ c h signifies a glorious appearing, or appeaamce always means a personal ap-pearance to which it relates.—(Robinson Greek Lexicon.)

It occurs six times in the New Testament, in all of which a literal appearing is always meant It sometimes refers to the first advent, at other times to his second. See 1 Tim, a': 14. 2 Tim. 1: 10; 4; 1. 8: Titus 2: 13; 2 Thess. 2; 8. In all the passages preceediog the last, reference is evidently had to the personal ap-pearance of our Lord. Why then should we depart from the uniform meam'ng in the last lassage. The word parotuia, translated, com-ing, occTO in the New Testament twenty-four ^ ^ ^ i n every instance refers to the act-T ia l t t j^^ Ae c^ject in .question.

4. In the sixteenth chapter of th e Apoca-lypse, we read of seven vials of wrath that were to be emptied on the earth, previous to the thousand years of holiness, peace, and blessedness, and as we are inform^ the Mes-siah will make his appearance before the seventh is fully emptied, it is evident that his coming is pre-millennial. "Behold I come as a thief, blessed is he that watcheth and keep-ethhis garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame." This warning is made be-tween the sixth and seventh vial, and indicates, ss is shown subsequently, that Christ intends to make his appearance daring the emptying of the last vial. His coming therefore takes

Scriplund charity to expose and refute what-•uch the influence which, from this relation, ever doctrines are not sustained by the word mind exerts upon mind, that the light jest, the of God. "Were the Apostles destitute of by-word, and even the significant nod, leave I charity?

lue in that which is unsanctioned by the Gospel, no delight in a departure from the truth. And such is distinctiy the teaching of an Apostle: "rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rgoteeilt in the truth." Charity may regret that an erroneous sentiment prevails; she may drop a tear over those in error, and sorrow deeply over a prMtice which is unscriptural, but Bmiles, is glad and rejoiceth only in the truth.

Our motto. Bro. Editor, is. if we are BiWe Christians by pro-fessitm, let us carry out the priniciples to jlhe letter, and if there are any amongst us who are advocating CampbeUism, Neologism, or any otlier MM, let them exerdse moral honesty enough to leave us, and go where they can en joy themselves to their satisfaction. Oh! that your correct views of oridual principles, as exhibited in the Baptist, may under God bring the Baptists in the South-west back to the ori-ginal land-marks.

Bro. Graves, you was not all that wore as-tonished at seeing Bro. Dagg's commendation of the Von Rohden and Duncan books, for when I saw it I humbly confess that my heart was sickened. "The Christian Index" has been our oracle from about 1831, until a few years past, and the organ qf tlie Georgia Bap-tist Convention, and of the Mercer University, all the time sending out its healing and whole-some streams, buoying and building up Bap-tists in their most holy faith. But alas! what do I see quoted from that long cherished ora-cle and organ of the Mercer Unijersity in 1953?

"We can heartily commend it," what! viz: the Von Rohden and Duncan book, "to the at-tention of every reader of the Bible—SOUND IN DOCTHISK, generally correct in its criticis7iis,

EVANOKUCAL IN ITS PRACTICAI. BKARING, pure in its style. I t deserves a place in the library of the private Christian as well as the Theolo-gian. ProfesiOT Duncan rendered a valuable service to the cause of Biblical learning."—J. F . Dagg, E d . Index.

Merciful God! is this the organ of the Mer-cer University, the Baptist Theological Insti-tution at Penfield, Georgia—an institution for the prosperity and success of which, in former years, I spent much of my valuable time, and for which, in its rearing, *I robbed my own children of a portion of the means of an edu-cation, to aid tlie noble enterprize, and though it was but comparatively littie, yet I felt that I was giving it to the Lord, not doubting but that he would turn it to a good account.

Bro. Graves, can I be permitted at this hour, even when my paper and desk are bedewed with tears, to ask a question, and will some good brother that can please respond? Is Von Rohden and Duncan's book, or any of a simi-lar character, admitted as a standard work in tiie above named institution, or in the South-west? If so, as an honest man, I would do well to return back to Georgia, and humbly acknowledge to my old anti-Missionary Bap-tist brethren, that they were right, and that I was wrong. They said in 1836 and '37, your Theological Schools and hired Ministers, will bring in every kind of heresy, with which they will flood the land. Such were then their pre-dictions. against which, as your missionary, I had to battie; and evidentiy wc have reason to fear that the prediction is about to be realized.

While I reflect on the above endorsement, my mmd runs back to a Brantley, Mercer, Stokes, Baker and Sanders, and I can but feel astonished at the difference of sound in the Holy Mountain of our God from 1831 to 1853. Metliinks that if those noble spirits that have gone to reap their reward were to be sent back as administering angels, it would not be to ap probate, but to pronounce the most unsparing condemnation of it, as the basest of heresies. Hear it again reader:

"Since in the days of the Apostolic Chureh the impartation of the Spirit was usuaUy coin-cident with, or rather immediately consequent upon, the reception of baptism, and since the one implied the other, the impartation being in a major i^ of cases reaUy correspondent with the reality, the immersion itself, though only an outward symbol, is sometimes repre-sented in the New Testament by Metonymy, a natural, and in the Scriptures especiaUy, quite a frequent figure of speech, as the direct agent by which regeneration is produced.

"Though even in these cases the connection usuaUy shows that the real efficacy of the or-dmance is accompanying operation of the Holy Spmt." TJ l i lgS^ar -

Yea, baptismal regeneration, as is spoken of in the New Testatment, see his quotation on page of the book, 217.

We have quoted Mr. Duncan alone—he is the Bap&t editor that has brought about all this troul)]e, pad p r o d a ^ ^ U i u h e i ^ b u i n -ing. Yei we shodd be glad, to have the op: portimty tq forgivie him upon his repentance, but without it, never. We know the rule of Christ. We have been disposed to let Von Rohden alone, preferring to let him remsun in Germany in company with his Nrological breth-rek; M d I pray God that no mbie of his The-

This is an unmistakable docti^e laid down in the la^t will and testamrat of our blessed Lord and Master, and it should never be forgotten that there is the heaviest curse denotmced against those that do Uitj work of the Lord decwtfully. We are far from believing that Editors, Professors, or even D. D.'s, or L. L. D / s were'designed of the to be privileged character, for says the'Vord, he that hath done wrong shall receive for,the wrong that he hath done, and there is no respecter of persons. Neither can the church be respecter of persons in matters of di&cipline, without incuring the curse above mentioned. I am aware that the discipline of the Bible has been so much and so long neg-lected, and has gone so much put of use in many churches, that the sacred precepts are too little regarded, and so much so that there are comparatively but few that seem to know or care how or what to do, and prefer to set down at perfect ease and spend the time in pleading church sovereignty, and with a kind of construction that presents the church more like the den of the mischievous vermin of the forest, prepared to secure him from his just re-ward. But we have not so learned the church of Christ; the government is wholesome—the law is equal, and equally binding upon all. Christ has not left his flock here in this world of uncertainty and trials, without some rule of defence, from innovations of false doctrines and false pretension of every kind, and by which they may distinguisli themselves from the rest of mankind.

is bleached with the frost of something near three-score, winters, yet I feel Uiat I know com-paratively little. I am looking anxiously each week for new supplies upon which to improve my mind on these subjects, and the only mo-tive prompting me to pen this article, is for the purpose of stirring up the churches to their duty, and to call out abler minds on the united action between church and association. Per-mit me, therefore, to say this much. Every regularly orj^nizcd church is a sovereign body, so far as other govemmenU ani laws are con-cerned, other than the government and laws of Christ, and she is only known as a visible church by the oath of allegiance to his gov-ernment, and the observance and faithful ad-ministration of his laws; but so soon as she neglects or refuses to perform her obligations to said goverament as laid down hi the com-pact, her sovereignty ceases, and she becomes subject to the pains and penalties of the laws of Christ's kingdom which she has shamefully and wickedly neglected to observe, and ad-minister according to her oath of promise as laid down in the original compact, and she is now accountable to the association with which she is a member; made a second agent to ad-minister the laws of the kingdom of Christ, by mutual consent of the churches in the associa-tional compact, this being the only way in which heretical ministers can be reached. Strange though it be, it is nevertheless true, that there are some occupying the sacred desk of our de-nomination, who are troubled with itching ears,

itJwtaWe—being led about with every wind of doctrine, now and then dealing forth some panacea by which to soothe and aUay the Pe-does, then a little to quell the uncompromising Baptist, and if possible to congregate together people of every hue and color, and from this material to form one general platform capacious enough for all to stand upon. Some preach themselves, not Christ the Lord, and in doing this, having no compass by which to steer their frail bark across the tempestuous billows, they are quickly floundered, and nothing remains of them but the wreck of their blasted hopes. If this were all, the case would not be so lament-able, but alas! others led away by the speci-ousness, and it may be the impenetrableness of their ipse dixits, are wrecked with them— the victims of a man who has been laboring f o r popularity.

Bro. Graves, is such to be tolerated in our Churches? It does seem to me, that when churches will not, associational interference should take place through the proper channel, viz: by faithful sister churches laboring Avith •wU Aalinyiant ehuriiliAa, 'wlko wUl'rataili SUch offending ministers and members, and will not execute discipline, and finding them to be re-gardless of their high trust, report them as of-fending members of the association, at a regu-lar meeting, when the association, in her sov-ereign capacity, can speak " for God and his c a t ^ universal.

0 ! that the God of Israel may arouse his chureh on earth to a faithful discbarge of her duty in these things, that Zion may be healed of aU her maladies, and may the Lord bless the Editor of the Tennessee Baptist inth long life and abimdant success, in laboring to build up the W t oif all causes, for Christ's sake.

For about eighteen months before her death she had been U-Loriug under consumpUon, which finally brought her to the grave. She waa attended to the last by physicians, kind friends, and as faithful and affecUonate a husband aa over lived—I am eonfldent I hazard nothing in the last declaratiun.

With sister Hopkina I had a particular acquaintance, having been much at hft house. Ureater paUence and truer christUn demeanor generally, I have never known exhibited by any one, both in dckness and in health. I once heard her hnshand re-mark, while she was in health, that '-she had nerer spoken to him a single word in her life that was the lexst unkiud."' She died as she had lived, a christian. She espressed herself per-fecUy reconciled to the will of ttod—to Ii™ with her food hns-baud and two little children awhile, or to depart and live with Christ. During her last illness, she deairal her husband and frieuds not to mourn her loss; that she wai going but a Uttle be-fore them. She was much in prayer, and greatly desired the salvation of the whole world; the Saviour to her was precious, and she wished others to share in the same great hlt«aing.

Her body waa .leposited in the Baptist burial ground in the neighborhood where she died, and the remainder of the family returned to their former home In Arkansa-s, now bereft of its brightest ornament and the moft belived of their former band.

To the alliictud husband and friends, 1 offer my warmest sym-pathies. and with them pray that the heavy trial may work for good to the living ^^^ P^S. O . WATSOS.

The subject of this notice was born January 27th, I82i; united with the BapUst Church in 1S38; was joined in marriage to Bro. A D. Summerfoni Januarys, 1839. Dii'd December 30th. lSo3, leavins a husband and ten children, of which two were only a few hours old at the time of her death, and many relaUves to mourn her los.v Her death, as we understand was very unex-pected, both to hersrlf and the surrounding friends; andsuchbe-Ins the caw, she aihl nothing on the subject at the Ume of her deaih. But such WM her entire devoUon to tie cause of Ood, after she united with the church, as to leave no doubt in the

f U«. faUwh., , ha« eone to i joy that rest that remains for the people of God. Ou'e fidii to become acquainted with her, to form that strong affection for her that binds the people of God together. How strangely docs this case bring U> bear on our miud that declaration of Ood, "Bo ye also ready, for in such an hour as ye think not, the Son of m.mcom.<th." How true, that ia the midst of life we are in death. May tho Uving take warning by this solemn dispensa-tion ol providence, and Uy the lesson solemnly to heart.

This sketch, though but poorly drawn, wiU richly compensate its humble undertaker, if it but prove any solace to the surviv-ing reUtives and friends of its subject. It was ia the beginning of autumn last, that I visited the sick couch of a mortal passing from time to eternity.

Unmistikable evidence that he could not long dweU cne.-irth, w:ts shown by his lifeless eye—sunken cheek—and eiiaciated form—for feeblu nature was then nearly exhausted. For yaers he had been the subject of disease, and about eight mouths pre-vious to his spirit's flight, he was Bciie<l by Paralysis, which at lirst affected only one side of him, bat as time prased on, itsprea"* over his system, and fimUly terminated hU existence, October 6th, 1843, at his residence in Hertford county, N. C. He passed t.1 the tomb in the prime of manhood, being aged onlySZ years, 8 months and 5 davs—leaving a fond, aflecUonate companiun, doting parents—whose heads are frosted by age, and whose hearts have been wrung thrice by the pieniatura departure of their off. springs, to the spirit land in the richest bloom of life, beaid^ a multitude of surrounding friends, to mourn over his departure, and deplore their i7reparabl8 loss. W» can but yield to the sad-dening intlueuee which such an untimely blight naturally causes to spring—but at the same time wo should recoUect. that such are the workings of Omnipotence and bow In submission to his decrees. Even as our Brother Jenkins bore with christian for-Utude and resignation his fate, through his protracted sufferings, even so shouU we, professed followers of the Saviour, bear lli.s chastisement, knowing '-that he worketh aU things together forgoo'i." Our esteemed brother made an open confession of hia faith in Ubrist Jesus in September, 1849, and attached him-silf to Mt. Tabor Church, of which he was ordained deacon in November of the same year, but waa leUom able to attend to liis duties on account of his failing health.

As we have before said, he bore with almost nnearthly forti-tude his sufferings during the long wealj months of his prostra-tiou, and even before—ho murmured not at his aflUctions. As an individual, ho was esteemed; as a neighbor, beloved; asahus-band, devoted and kind; and aa a christian, his example was one worthy to be followed. "None knew him but to love him. none named him but to prais *' may wall w Triiw «<* tmr drpaiwd brothiM- rreqtffnUy"during his illness he would rejoice with ihe love of God shed abroad in hia heart, and teU the loved ones around of his bright prospects of a happy rest with the angels around God's throne. It sppeared that the gloom of the grave to him, had lost its darkness, and he would speak of death as a welcome messenger to bear him to his Saviour on high. Sorrow not, ye bereaved ones: His suflbrings are ended—his work on earth ia finished, and the joya of an angel are now his gloriona anticipation, soul-cheeriug-consolation; and may we all live with hearts unblemished by the sinfulness of earth, that we may at last embrace our friends and relatives gone before us, in a world where dlsease cannot enter—sorrows never come—and no fare-well tear is shed-^t an is peace, joy, and happiness unbound-ed, thronghout vast eternity, is the earnest prayer of a wcfl-wisher to all.

Yellow Fever, Hrs. UaKcasxsxz CILUSLEJI, wife of Wm. C. Chandler—aged 40 years. '

Thesuhjectof this notice firrt united with the Presbyterian Church, but upon invesUgation, saw she had not foUowed Christ; and desiring to do so, was boned in the haptii^ flood, Februaiy 22d, 1852, in the presence of s'fnU hoiw.

Hers was truly an example of piety in poverty. Though from h e r gtation she m a y h a r e been lightly esteemed, tho sweet ia-fluence of h e r piety, in the relation of wife and mother, w e r e felt, a t least, in her bmUy; and went np before God as a s w e e t savor of Christ.
