in a land where a cow and horse cannot live on account of the intense heat. If the colored people immigrate to Africa, it will be to fall victims to a burning sun and an atmosphere loaded with poison. This land is large enough for us all. There is no reason wby the colored people and the white people may not live here in the enjoyment of peace and prosperity. We played together in childhood ; we grew up together into manhood ; and if we will do right, we may live and die together in this good land. Your Bishop says the colored people must cultivate honesty, morality, frugality and industry. I repeat it. Your preachers must labor to impress it upon the minds of your people that without a good moral character, a man is worthless, no matter to what race of the human iamny no may belong. Without a good moral character we cannot be good citizens; and without virtue and morality, in the Bible sense of these words, we k - never can enter Heaven. In conclusion, permit me to say again that I feel a deep interest in the temporal, spiritual and eternal welfare of the colored people. May God guide you by his holy Spirit. May God bless you! Rev.

Robert Lathan replies to my dissent from his declaration that "Jesus Christ was not baptized at all," and remarks that "it is too scattering." This must be true: for it has evidently scattered his thoughts from the subject and spread them out so thinly over three and a half columns of the Enquirer, that they scarcely touch the main points in my reply. He wastes a large portion orhisfirstcolumnin proving what nobody everasserted or believed, viz.: that the immersion of cups, couches, hands, Aristotle's hay, Ac., was not Christian baptism. Certainly, all his readers knew better, without reference to tiiese examples; and it is probable that most of them knew further that every case of Christian baptism is an i^t immersion, just as they know that every case of theit is sin, but every sin is not a case of theft. But what about his Greek lexicons? Why did he not name them ? Are they not pedobaptist New Testament lexicons, together with some poor * 1 ? * x/lo no urnrfK nntino 9 affair wmcu iiu w-uwai ....... Uv?w. Was he not ashamed to name them ? He speaks of my paragraph on "Once in Christ, and my "sly allusion to infant baptism," and asks, "What has this do with the point in dispute?" It has so much to do with it, that it proves beyond question that his definition of baptism, though old, is unscriptural and fearfully incorrect, and utterly demolishes one of his reasons for asserting that Christ was not baptized. He asserts, witbput proof, near the top of his second column, that John's was not Christian baptism, and then goes ofi' to Jacob, Moses and the proselytes. But why do you scatter so, brother Lathan ? What has this do with the baptism of Christ? You had already wasted more than half of your first column in proving what everybody knows?that every immersion is not a case of Christian baptism. Every immersion of a believer, into water, by a proper administrator, in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost, is a Christian baptism. Perhaps a careful examination of this statement will help you to "stick to the point in dispute." Remember that Jesus was baptized by John, a properly authorized administrator, while the proselytes baptized themselves. Mr. Lathan says that "although the Messiah had been in the world for about thirty years, John had never seen him !" How, then, did John say to Jesus before he baptized him: "1 have need to be baptized of thee, and coinest thou tome?" Wm. Hanna, D. D., LL. D., an eminent Presbyterian, in his excellent "Life of Christ," says: "From previous acquaintance he may instantly have ^ recognized him as the son of Mary, to whom his thoughts and hopes had, for so many years, been pointing. He certainly did at once recognize him as his superior, as one at least so much holier*tban himself that he shrunk from baptizing him. But he did not certainly know him, as the Christ, the Son of God ; did not so know him at least, as to be entitled to point him out as such to the people." i.' iinnn tmo fhafr .Tohn had never seen nvcu It 1 V ItUU UVVU KkMV V..V.. - v,.... ? Jesus, this would be uo evidence that his baptism was not instituted by Christ. His ministers of the present time have never seen him, and yet he has authorized them to baptize. John claimed that his baptism was of divine origin ; not only that he came baptizing; but also that he was sent to baptize. Jesus taught the same when he said: "The baptism of John, whence was it?from heaven orof men?" Luke also teaches the divine origin of John's baptism in the following striking language: "And all the people that heard him, and the publicans, justified God being baptized with the baptism'of John. But the pharisees and lawyers rejected thecounsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him." Reference is made to the rebaptism of the disciples that were found at Ephesus. But this only proves that they were baptized when they were unfit, and this rendered a second baptism necessary. It is now, and always has been a custom among Baptists to rebaptize all applicants for membership, whose first oaptism was in any way Improper. Hence their name?Anabaptists*. Dr. Joseph A. Alexander, a Presbyterian of acknowledged ability, in his Commentary on Acts, vol. 2, says of the passage under consideration : "Perhaps the most satisfactory solution is the one afforded by the intimate relation between John ami Christ, and the entire dependence of John's baptism upon faith in Christ for its whole meaningand - validity. Where this was understood, and those baptized by John went on, as he instructed them, without undue delay or interruption, to embrace Christ as their Saviour, and his doctrine as their faith, rebaptism would have been a ceremonial ninckery. It is nanny pruoauie mai muw cpuesians were baptized by Jolin; for they lived more than six hundred miles, in a straight line, from where John baptized; it was now nearly thirty years after John baptized any body, and they seem to have been so ignorant of what John taught his disciples, that Paul speaks to them as if he were astonished at their having been baptized at all, saying, 'unto what, then, were ye baptized ?'" The record of their case is proof that John's baptism was Christian; for he taught them that they , must believe on Christ. If Paul did not know thatJohn's baptism was Christian baptism, how did he know that John taught the people that thev must believeon Christ, just as Baptists now teach all candidates for baptism that they must believe on Him? The passagein John iii: 22 and iv: 1, 2,3: After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judea; and there he tarried with them and baptized. * s * When, therefore, the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John, (though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,) teaches that his disciples baptized bv his authority, if it teaches anything at all. Jesus continued with them, made disciples, and when they were made disciples and not before, he baptized them through his disciples as his authorized agents. William Smith, LL. P., in the Dictionary of the Bible, says of the passage: "We naturally infer from it, that as soon as our Lord began his ministry and gathered to him a company of disciples, he, like John the Baptist, admitted into that company by the administration of baptism." But bow brother Lathan scatters ! He occupies ! much space in writing about what occurred after ; the baptism of Christ, and then places God's re- j cognition of his Son after his temptation ; and in the same sentence adds to God's word thus: "God I now publicly recognized him as his Son and as a priest forever, after the order of Melcbisedec!" Brother Lathan verily believes that "Jesus was washed, baptized, dipped, immersed or plunged by John, and thus publicly inducted into the office of priest;" but fails to give his reasons for such belief. Where are the crown, the mitre, the breastplate, brother Lathan ? How could he have been lawfully inducted into the priest's office when he was not of the lawful tribe of priests ? "Our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood." Heb. vii: 14. How could he have been a literal friest when his ministry was not in the temple? f the washing was literal, how came the annointing to be spiritual? What about the induction into the office of prophet and king? As to my statement that "Christ, in obedience to a law of his kingdom, was baptized as one dead to sin," my meaning was sufficiently clear, and if brother Lathan misunderstood it, tne fault was his and not mine. Christ was baptized as one doad to sin, just as he was crucified as one guilty of sin, though innoceut. He was baptized as one over whom sin had no dominion?just as the believer is "dead indeed unto sin ; and, therefore," buried with Christ by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we (he) also should T- 1 T -o | wane in newness 01 me. is urumei uaumu that my language to which he objects, is in the very words of Scripture? The reader will remember that brother Lathan said that "he * * * 'died to sin,' is a statement contradicted by the Scriptures and repugnant to common sense!" But Scripture says expressly of Christ: "He died unto sin." The manner in which he treats this part of the subject, together with his statement that my reply was scattering, his promise to confine himself to the subject, and his closing reference to George W. Clark, is clear proof that he is "hard up." He admits that baptizo "cc/ tainly does mean to immerse;" but says that "one half the Christians in the world think it means something else." Is that an evidence that it does mean something else? If so, the fact, that at one time all the world, except one man, believed the world to be llat, was proof that it was fiat. He virtually admits, repeatedly, that baptizo, in the case of Christ, means to immerse. If so, why not in every case? The word is the same in every instance. In his fourth column, he thinks he sees, metaphorically, some other meaning; but he cites no example in which immerse miglit not be used metaphorically, as adding force to the ideas conveyed. If, as he admits, baptizo means to immerse, by what authority does ho sprinkle water on a subject in the name of the sacred Trinity and call it baptism? Dr. Trevern, a Roman Catholic, in his La Discussion Amiealc, answers the question in the following striking language: He says to Protestants: "Show us, my lords, the validity of your baptism, (sprinkling,) by Scripture alone. Jesus Christ there ordains that it shall be conferred, not by sprinkling water on the heads of believers, but bv believers being plunged into water. It would, therefore, be all over with your baptism, (sprinkling and pouring,) unless you established it by tradition and the practice of the (Catholic) church. To produce a plea for it, you are obliged to seek it with Pope Stephen and the councils of Aries and Nice." (p. 142 ) We conclude then, that Jesus Christ was baptized in the only Scriptural sense of the worn; that is, that he was immersed as one over whom sin has no dominion, in water, by a properly authorized administrator, and thus he "honored the ordinance which God had sent John to administer." Is that what you mean by sticking to the point, brother Lathan ? B. G. Covington. MERE-MENTION. Gen. Bedford Forrest, the famous cavalry officer, died in Memphis, Tenn., on the evening of the 29th ultimo.
