UCH is the name and style of a Monthly Peri Q edical, the publication of which we purpase, the Lord willing; to commence on the rrst Monday in January next. The main design of .this Journal is 16r the discussion of all subjects pertaining to Chris tian faithand practice. Additional to this, we shall 'present such articles of a literary. character, original and selected, as will have a tendency to refine the ta.te and elevate the sentiment of the reading pub lic. Polities also, considered as a science, and as affecting-the principles of Law and Governiient, and more especially-the mighty movements of the tations, as they work out the designs of God, will claim due and proper attention. But Politics de graded to the Squabbles of demagogues and factions, will be utterly eschewed and repudiated. As respects matters purely religious, we shall, of course, advocate the principles of -tie Baptist Com naunity. as derived from the Scriptures, and repub lish from standard and other respectable works, ar tieles.pertaining to Our own Literature; but our columns will be Open. to an of Every Name, For the defence and advocacy of their principles, elaiming only the. right to judge of the suitableness of all articles for insertion, and to nuake such criti esm on them as may be deemed expedient. - In this undertaking we have the satisfaction o announcing that several gentlemen of eminent'abili ty and attainments have kindly engaged to render .us occasional assistance. The Journal will contain FORTY PAGES of reading matter, and such advertisements as our friends may favor -us with, not inconsistent with the character of the work,-making at the end of the year a neat volume of 480 pages, suitable for bind. ing in book form. With regard to the mechanical execution of the wofk, we deem the announcement, that this will be . under the direction of the Messrs. Duamsos, a sufi cient guaranty for its faithful and tasteful perform ance-and without further words, encouraged by the expressions. of good will and promises of sub stantial aid from many friends, we threw the mat ter before the people with an assurance of every effort to render satisfaction for the support that may be-extended to us, and respectfully ask them to let the " LIGHT" shine. - Our terms of subscription are Two Do.aas per year. in advance, on receipt of the first num - ber.- Ministers of the Gospel, of every denomina tion, who may be unable to comply with the terms, will be supplied with one copy each, on application. 07 A list for the signatures of all who wish to encourage the work, may be found at the Post Office, and also at the " Advertiser" Office.
