From the Charleston Courier. CHARLESTON, (S. C.,) 12th April, 1845. At an adjourned meeting of the Incorpo rated Baptist Church of Charleston, held this evening, at 8 o'clock, the following report and resolutions were presented by the Committee appointed on the 25th ul timo, and after discussion and due delibe ration thereon, unanimously adopted: The Committee to whom were referred preambles and resolutions on the subject of the letter of the Acting Board of For eign Missions to the President of the Ala bama State Convention, have had the whole subject under consideration, and be leave to ItEPO RT : That they have no doubt that the action of tbeActiug Board is against the rights of members, individual and State, of tho Triennial Cotvention. For to say, that those who are members of that body ac tually or by representation, are eligible to everj employment and office in its gift is an absurdity. As well might -it be said, that a South Carolinian, who happened to hold slaves and to be a delegate, could not be elected President! But the absurd position assumed by the Acting Board, is the more manifest from the very fact, that they are the agents of. the.. very men from whom they refuse to take a mis sionary. That the course pursued by the Acting Board is most unjust will be at once perceived, when it is re:membered, that from the establishment of missions, Southern Baptists have freely contributed to sustain them. They were among the first to unite in teis good work, and to constitute the Triennial Convention. That they have gone on ministering to the heathen abroad, while perhaps they had abundant employment. for all their means at home, in the religious instruction of their slaves, cannot be denied. Now, to b, told you are unworthy to he a missionary to the very people to whom you have de voted your means, month after month, and year after year, and for whom your pray ers have been constantly ascending, is a poor specimen of the just consideration of the rights of Southern Baptist Sluvebold ers. Vhether it be esteemed right or not by our brethren who are not slavehold ers, of one thing we are very certainwe aw urotr mragt -'6as rjc te1. The compromise made in the Triennial Convention last year, conceded a great deal to the prejudices of our brethren of the non-slaveholdiug States; but we were, and still are, willing to abide by it. Let the ground on which we meet be but neu tral, and we are satisfied. Our brethren may say, and have a right to say, in the words of the resolution, while it remains unrescinded by the Convention. "1We dis claim all sanction, either expressed or im plied, whether of slavery or anti-slavery." But when they declare that they cannot and will not employ a slaveholder as a missionary, it is plain and palpabel they have ceased to he neutral. They are par tizans, abolitionists. Thr.t (:id may and dies call slaveliold ers to -'reach the Gospel will scarcely be denie . if his commission he thus derived from th- Ling of Kings. how dare mortals to abridge its terms. "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost." Yet our brethren have dared to do this very deed.' They hive said 'You, A. B., called of God to preach the Gospel. desiring to go and teach the heathen, bu' have not the means of your self to go, and has asked us to give you the eans placed in your hands for that pur pose, yet -inasmuch as you are a slave holder, you shall not have one dollar nor our authority to go." This is an awful responsibility. and brethren should' pause. and consider it well before they carry it out I For we tell them, piersist in thie corse marked out.by the Acting Board of Foreign M~issionis, and the blessing of God will be withdrawvn from these mis sions, and we shall cease to be one peo ple. The South can and will take care of themselves ! But we hope that a returninig setnso of justice and of duty, of which we see some indications, will induce the Board of Mian agers, at their approaching session, to re verse and rescind the decision luf the Act ing Board. To give time for the fulfil meni or the blasting of that hope, if such mst be :he case. we wvould prefor that the proposed Southern Baptist Convention should not assemble until the Tuesday af ter the third Lord's day in Junie next. But if our hope should not be realized, and it is the will of God, that the painful neces sity should be upon us, of providing for our own protection from wrong, we concur fully in the views of our Baptist: brethren of Virginia, in the expediency of .the Southern Baptists meeting in Convention at Augusta. Ga., for the purpose of enquir ing together and asking the Lor-dlwhat shall he done' ?in that event your Commit tee believe it' will be hest, that each Bap tist Chnrch throughout the State' should meet and setnd uip one or more delegates. Tbe meetings of our State Conventioin and Associations will not he in' time, and if they were, still we would prefer that each Church should appoinit. For the question is one deeply aff'ecting every Southern Baptist. Delegates comning 'fresh from the bosom of each Church, would give to 'us and the world a just notion of what ought and cnn be done.. . Your Committee have learned~ with deep sorrow that the Rev. Mr. Mason, one of the i..ssinae sent out, and supported by the Board of Foreign Missions, forget- th ful of the hand which feeds him, has con- I be tributed a sum of money to an abolition B: societyto aid slaves in escaping from their masters. Such conduct is not only un worthy of a Minister of Christ, but also a flagrant instance of want of respect to the rights and laws of a people, who, to say the least, brve been very kind ~to. him. fai How can the Southern Baptists be in com- ca munion with a man who may be an ac- mi cessary before the fact, to the stealing, not ch of one-but hundreds of slaves? - th< Your Committee recommend the adop- to tion of the following resolutions: fo Resolved, That the late action of the cr Acting Board of the Baptist Triennial ivi Convention, having charge of the For- o eign Missions, whereby they declare "that er if.any one should offer himself as a mis- ha sionary holding slaves, and should insist on ne holding them as property, we could not of appoint him," is a plain violation of the .U constitution of the Triennial Convention, is an assumption of power expressly de- ar ied to theni, by the very body under . which they hold their authority, is a fla- .sh grant act of injustice to Southern Baptists, ha and is a. human attempt to. abridge the on Commission of our Lord and Master. a on Revolved, That it is our right and duty ine to demand. that the action of the Acting sit Board should be reversed and rescinded tat by the General Board; - liv Resolved. That in the hope that this nei may be done, we respectfully recommend as that the assemblage of the proposed South- fol ern Baptist Convention, be deferred until ex the first Tuesday before the third Lord's is' day inJune next. cie Resolved, That M. T. Mendenhall, D. vic R. Lide, J. B. Below, S. How, Capt an Trout, A. J. Burke, Rev. J. L- Reynolds, the and W. Riley, be the delegates of this ga Church, to meet the said Convention co ohenever it may assemble. Resolved. That we respectfully suggest {$ to our -sister Churches throughout the tet State, the propriety and importance of ftS their early consideration of this subject, fa and if they concur with us, that they ap- de point one or more delegates to the said Convention. .. p Resolved, Thas the Rev.

The Address.thus closes. of To such as have felt constrained with e us, to withdraw their direct co operation Yk with the'Board for a season, we say with th deep sincerity and emotion, see to it thant al our brethren are sustained in the honorable I* stand wohich they hatie taken, and which we doubt-not they will maintain. For us notw P' to stand aloof would be base and treacher- bi ous, Gratitude to God for an evetnt for at which we have eatnestly prayed, should .? impel us to such a -course. So much of c the support of the cause as htas hitherto m come from the unpaid toils of the slave, P. will, no doubt, now be withheld; let this gi deficiency be-wore than made up by your ei increased,. liberality, L et not the Board and the missionaries suffer, because the gc former refuse in any way to sanction as system of wrong which has been alike " rievous to us all. The missionaries inH 13'rmah once bad it under consideration to be request the Board to deduct from their " scanty salaries the probable amount so- a cured from slave labor-and it was tnt* that thiy would not have deemed privation cI a luxury, compared with the thought that the means of- their own support were in pi part the price of some Christian (gother. th Dr sister sold into .perpetual bondage-a re doom more dreadful than death-that this na resolution was not taken. pe Let this fact, and others still more plain- fri ly indicating the harmony of their views at and feelitngs with our own, impel us to ex- t ert our utmost to afford bearts so noble all *t they desire for their own comfort, and for the success of that cause which we all so much love. We entreat you to allo'v no partiality for contention, .and no vain ex cse, to deter you from giving immediate H and convincing evidence of your sincere ~ and firm -attachment to this holy enter prise.

GENTLEMEN :-The ca.ses of so m&ny r lures amongst planters is a love. to be a lied rich, to accumulate around them p ich property. To do so they often pur- p ase large quantities of land, for which a sy have no use, which they are tempted a purchase because it adjoins theirs, and is ( sale, and as they suppose low, and- on o idit Poor Richard says, take care of the b istle. They also purchase many do- e istics; because they are to be goiton on a idit, high prices are given. - It often ti ppens that these cheap bargains are E ver paid for until they are sold by some ii icer of the Courts, when the purchaser a ds that all he has purchased, together % th the patrimony of himself and wife, cl ) all sold, and his debts are not paid.- h have known in 1817 and 1836 sales S ide of domestics at high prices, which e afterwards been sold at a lose of from s-half to two-thirds, and the same of ds. A planter should never purchase a credit, but save donually a part of his ti ome to invest occasionally. The dispo- A on to live above the income of the plan- A ion is too- prevalent. A rich planter o es sumptuously, and .his less wealthy ti ighbour thinks as he is equal he can live h well, he goes in debt to do so, and ruin lows as the consequence. No man is k :usable that lives upon all -he makes; it bue to himself, to his family, and the so ty in which he lives, that he should pro- t le for himself and family in in old age, C d not be a charge upon his friends and s t government, after a life of extrava- ci ace, to say the least of his mistaken s aduct. n The only safe way for a planter is to a e on -his income. To do so he must not :1 uk only of a market crop, but to at id to the necessary provisions for his nily and household. He should never, less some severe dispensation of Provi ce visits him, be a purchaser of provi no, but be a seller to those that are not inters, but are consumers.
