Kinard, Newberry C. H.;" J as. Cn-ant, Union; Julius Poppe, Anderson C. H. Tho .Mun ?nd Brother" In the Southern Baptist Convention. We take from the Macon Journal and Messenger the following report of an inte? resting debato upon the religious education of the negro, which, occurred in the South? ern Baptist Convention, on Saturday last: Rev. Dr. Fuller, of Baltimore, from tho Special Committeo on Missions, to whom ?was re-referred the report of said commit? tee, so far as relates to the colored people, submitted his report upon tho report, which was received and taken up. The report is embodied in the following resolutions: Resolved, 1. That God has directly com? mitted to tho Baptists at the South the high and sacred duty of giving a pure Gospel and an enlightened colored ministry to our bre? thren aud fellow-citizens of African descent, now living among us. Resolved, 2. That a new department of the Mission Board bo created, which shall bo styled tho "Freedmen's Board Depart? ment," which shall adopt such measures for the religious oducatiou of the colored peo? ple in our midst, RB tho exigencies of the case may require. Rev. Dr. Fuller, on submitting the re? port, remarked that tho South had yet a power by which she could rise to a position of higher importance than any she had ever occupied; that power was Uer spindlos. Na? poleon on co saiel that it waa not tho armies of England that bud conquered him, but her spindles. So might the -South, by her spindles, rise to great importance and power. He referred to the very profitable investments in factories made in Augusta, Ga., and in Mississippi. Somo of these factories were paying twenty-five per cent, on tho capital invested. Tho Doctor said be intended to clear his conscience. The stable prejudice in the South bael not been extinguished. It had been overcome, ho thought, to a greater extent in Georgia anti South Carolina than in some of the border States. Before the colored man could occupy the place for which the Saviour dcsiguetl bim, bo must bo mado to feel that in Christ Jesus there is neither malo nor female, Jew nor Gentile, African nor American. The coloretl churches must be admitted to repre? sentation in Baptist associations. In Mary? land, this was already the case, though not the case in Virginia; and in the associations of Maryland, some of the very best speeches wero sometimes made by colorod preachers. These colored brethren had a sense of what is power, and when they enteretl tho associa? tion would take their places together, and not attempt social equality, which ho said waa a thing impossible. Would not the Burmun, if he wore here, be admitted into the associations? Why, then, should the African, who is scarcely a hne darker, be excluded? Not long sinoe, in Baltimore, he admitted a Burmun into his pulpit, and some thought it was a colored man with a turban on his bead. Tho carpet-bagger Baal, having got what ho came for, was asleep, or ou his journey to Congress, and now was the time for Southern Christians to work for tho spiritual welfare of the colored people. Rev. Dr. Poindexter, of Virginia, replied to the remarks of Dr. Fuller. He might be in error, and if he were, ho should be glad to get out of it, but as social equality was a thing impossible, it would operate as a bar to the admission of colored ministers into tho associations. The idea of admit? ting them into associations as delegates in? volved tho idea nf snrdn! equality. Tho Bible never intended, when it, said that wo are all one in Christ, to abolish social dis? tinctions. Dr. P. did not regret that the discussion had arisen, ns it would givo an opportunity for a full discussion of tho sub? ject. Ho thought that tliero was nothing that so protected the colorod man, and gave him such great opportunity for elevation, as the bars existing to their social equality with tho white man. If you wouhl admit them as representatives in associations, you would have also to admit them to your houses, to your tables, and lay them upon your beds. Rev. Jesse H. Campbell, Georgia, very heartily endorsed the sentiments of tho brother who had just spoken. Whon wero we ever to be done with discussions about tho colored man? The report recommend? ed that a department be opened in the Do? mestic Mission Board for the theological education of oolored ministers; tho Domes? tic Mission Board was in debt already, and if that was attempted the Board would, in a year," be moro in debt than it now is. He had been a preacher for forty-six years, and during that timo hud preached much to the colored people, and baptizod, perhaps, thousands of them, but ho was not disposed, and never oxpected to be disposed, to bo on terms of social equality with them. Soino of his own color might have such a disposi? tion, and it might bo well enough for them that they had it; it was a matter of taste, bat bc did not believe Lime nny o? his pos? terity would ever have it. He did not be? lieve that God ever intended such equality. He was against tho recommendation of tho report. Mr. Browne, of Louisiana, rose to ad? dress the Convention. Judgo Lewis hoped that ns tho question of social equality was not referred to in the resolution, no allusion to it would bo made, and called for tho reading of tho resolutions, which were accordingly read. The President decided tho point of order well taken. Mr. Browne proceeded. It was not neces? sary to raise tho point of order on accouut of anything ho intended to say. He thanked God for tho resolutions contained in the report, but did not believe that they went far enough to meet tho exigencies of tho case, lt was impossible for our Board, if all tho funds in its Treasury were directed to that end, to supply the wants of tho colored people iu Louisiana. Ho favored thc plan of taking aid from tho Northern Missionary Board, on condition that tho ministers preaching to tho colored peoplo should be appointed by tho Southern Domestic Board, and report to that body. Kev. Dr. Williams, of Maryland, thought that them hud already been debato enough, and opposed the report on the ground that it involved too much machinery, having learned that the more machinery the greater tho loss of power. Ho, therefore, would offer the followijg resolution as n substituto to tho report: Resolved, That wo recommend to the Dis? trict and State associations to pay special attention to the religious instruction and spiritual interest of tho colored peoplo in their midst. A call was made for tho previous ques? tion, which call was sustained, but tho main question was not ordere:1.. The original report was then taken up by paragraphs. Moro discussion arose upon ! amendment/3 proposed. Tho word "freed? men'* waa,- cn motion -ef Dr. Broadna, of Virginia, stricken from tho report, and tho words "colored people" inserted. Dev. Dr. Burrows, of Virginia, moved to strike from the report the sentence which declares that "designing men have crept in among tho colored people who preach Christ not of sincerity, but for filthy lucre, and for their own political ambition." Dr. Broadus offered to amend, so that the paragraph shall read as follows: "Preachers they will have; and we who know those people can better supply the teaching they need than those who have never lived among them." Tho amendment was lost, and tho motion to strike out was also lost. The report made on the recommittal was then read, as follows: Resolved, That God has directly com? mitted to the Baptists at tho North tho high aud sacred duty of giving a pure Gospel and an enlightened colored ministry to our bre? thren and fellow-citizous of African descent, now living among us. Rev. Dr. Jones moved to amend tho above resolution, by striking from it tho words "our brethren and fellow-citizens of African descent," and substituting tho words "the colored population." The amendment was adopted. Rev. -. Shackleford moved to lay the whole subject on tho table. Lost. Rev. Dr. Reynolds, ol South Carolina, moved to further amend by altering tho re? solution so as to read as follows: "Resolved, That we recognize it as our high and sacred duty," etc. Adopted. Rev. Dr. Poindexter, of Virginia, moved to strike out tho word "colored" before "ministry." Carried. Tho resolution of Dr. Williams, of Balti? more, was adopted in lieu of the second re? solution, and whole report as amended was adopted. STRONG INDUCEMENTS. mHE NATIONAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPA J.
