M. I Miscellaneous. t To the Editor of the Edgefield Advertiser, i Sir: In a lato number of your paper, I 'c read with surprize the following article ta- t ken from the Alabama press:? ' a "Rebukeof the Abolitionists.?The Baptist Churches at Fellowship, in Wilcox, { and Carlowville in Dallas, have withdrawn' j, from all connexion or intercourse with' r the American Baptist Missionary Society,'^ on account of the circulation of abolition js papers by that body. The resolutions of 11] the Churches are justly severe upon the ( fanatical wretches,* who would deluge our / country in blood, to accomplish their mad J, schemes." a The writer of the above has fallen into i mistake which I ask leave to correct by he following quotation from the procccdngsof one of those Churches (which arc n substance the proceedings of both) as published in the Recorder and Watchman, f1. "A meeting of members of the Fellow- " ;hip Baptist church, Wilcox county, Ala. 1} ogcthcr with a number of the brethren ^ rom neighboring churches and some gen- Sl lemen of the vicinity, was, this day, held j ^ it the Fellowship Church, to take into!a :onsideration "An Address to Southern |n 3ftpliiis" issued by the "American Bap-; c4: ist Anti-Slavery Convention," holding its |: cssion in New York. Anril. 1840. ls "The address above alluded to, \vas!cl cad, and a number of speeches delivered, j xpressing our sincere disapprobation of i11 lie sentiments contained therein. After ai which, Elder Jesse Hartwell introduced 0 ,nd advocated the following Preamble and Resolution: n " Whereas a certain paper called " The a! christian Reflector Extra," has been for- 11 vardcd to many among us, as Pastors ot :lmrclics?which paper contains scntiucnts abhorrent to our views, ami certain hreats against us us holders of slaves? Yo tool that it is our duty to express oui iews on this subject. We think ourselves; ompelled the rather to speak because he President of the Convention, issuing aid "Address," is one of the Vice Prcsients of the American Baptist Board of orcign Missions. The sentiments conaincd in said "Address" are such as to resent insuperable obstacles to further; o-operation in the foreign missionary doartmciit. "Resolved, 2d. That \vc recommend to ur brethren of the South to adopt meaures for opening a channel by which our i r..i i c , i i * neenui uenciacuons may De carried 10 ic perishing heatlicn, that they may rceive the word of life." It appears from these proceedings, that nc of the Vice Presidents of the Baptist hard of Foreign Missions (not of the Imcrican Baptist Missionary Society) did reside in the meeting of the American baptist Anti-slavcrv Convention and did ign the address to the Southern Baptists, be views and threats of which constitute J be only allcdged ground of the withdraw-; nent of these Churches from further co- j operation in the Foreign Missionary Dc-, lartment. It is true the ltev. Elon Galuha, a Vice President of the Baptist Forign Board of Foreign Missions did do as bovc stated. But lie did not so act as ice Jr resident of the Board of Missions: ^bout the ,time|of the? meeting of that AntiSlavery Convention in New York, the Joard of Missions was in session there Iso. Yet, as to any thing, that I have een or heard, Elon Galusha was the only ncmbcr of that Board, found in that Concntion. It was my honor and privilege to be a ncmbcr of the Baptist Convention in 814, which organized the Baptist Tricnial Missonary Convention for the United States, and to be a member also of the Joard for the transaction of its business, ^nd I have the honor yet to belong to both hese Bodies. With the proceedings of hese Bodies, I have been intimately ac[uaintcd throughout the whole period of heir existence. And I now afhrm, that leithcr the Convention, nor the Board has t any time written, printed, circulated or ;ivcn countenance to, any Abolition pubicalions whatever. I trust, therefore, Mr. Editor, that the naccuracy of the article copied into your taper from the Alabama Press, is made vident and the Rnntist Board of Foreign Missions is relieved of the odious and unust charge of circulating Abolition papers. W. B. Johnson. Edgefield C. II S. C. Sept. 1840. The following preamble and resolutions were odop;d by the Edgefield Baptist Association, at their ite session. Wc will publish thoir letter to corresonding Associations in our next. Whereas a Body of Northern Bapists, forming the American Baptist Anti>lavery Convention, in the city of New fork in April last, did issue an Address, igned by Rev. Elon Galusha, President ?f the meeting, who is one of the Vice 'residents of the Baptist Board of Forign Missions, warning the Southern Bapists of the sin of holding slaves, and of he duty of emancipating them, and threacning their brethren at (he South with xclusion from their communion tables and heir pulpits, if they should not take the .UlIlUUll IUII illlK an IIIU11 ^ld>U ULL, Resolved, That our Delegates to the Japtist General Missionary Convention be nstructed to obtain from that Body at its icxt meeting, an expression of its approlation or disapprobation of the views and cntiracnts contained in that Address. To lie end, that if that Body shall approve of he views and threats contained in that Lddress, the Southern Baptists may take icasurcs for forming a separate Missicna ry Body. W. B. Johnson, Moderator. John Hnwrr, Clerk. Beautiful Extract.?The scenery mid which we are born and brought up, we remain long enough therein to have asscd that early period of existence on -hich memory seems to have no hold, nks, as it were, into the spirit of man; vines itself intimately with every thought, nd becomes a part of his being. He can ever cast it oil*, any more than he can ast off the body in which the spirit acts. Imost every chain of his after thoughts Jinked at some point to the magical rclc which bounds his youth's ideas; and rcn when latent, and in no degree known is still present, afiocting even' feeling id every fancy, and giving a bent of its wn to all out words and our deeds; ? i i r J i l have ncarci a story or a nine giri 'ho was a captive to some Eastern prince, ntl wore upon her ancles a light golden ng. .She learned to love her toaster' k | IcvotodJy, and was as Jiappv as she cou'd [be in his love. Adored, adorned, and j cherished, she sat beside him one day ill [ ill the pomp of Kastcrn state, when sudlcnlv her eyes fell upon the golden ring round her ancle which custom had ren- ' dercd so light that she had forgotten i! altogether. The tears instantly ro& in her cv2s as she looked upon jt, and her lover divining at once the cause, asked, with a look of reproach, " Would you be five?" She cast herself upon his bosom and answerd," Never!" Thus, often the links that bind us to ear ly scenes and places, in which we have passed happy or unliappy hours, are unobserved ana forgotton, till some casual circumstance turns our eyes thitherwardBut if any one should ask us whether wowould sever that chain, there is scarcely one fine mind that would not also answer* " Never! The passing of our days may be checkered with grief and caret unkindness and frowns may wither the smiles of boyhood, and tears bedew the path of youth; yet, nevertheless, when we> stand and look back, in later life, letting; Memory hover over the past, prepared to light where she will, there is no period in a?l the space laid out before her over I which her wings flutter so joyfully, or on I which she would so much wish to pause, as the limes o? our youth. The evils of / i other days are forgotten; the scenes in ! which these days past arc remembered, detached from the sorrows that checkered, , them, and the bright misty light of life's | first sunrise still gildes the whole with a .glory not its own. It is not alone, however, after long years have passed away, and crushed out the gall from sorrows endured, that fine and enchanting feelings I are awakened by the scenes in which our I early days have gone by, and that the thrill of associations it felt in all its joyfulncss, acting as an antidote to poisonous '1 sorrows which often mingle with our cup. ?\Jamcs. v ' Robert Burn? Bible.?The, Montreal Herald of Tuesday last says:?" We mentioned in yesterday's Herald that the Bible Drescntcd bv the immortal Burns to hia Highland Mary was purchased by a few of his countrymen in the city. They met on Mondav evening, and agreed that the sacred refic should be transmitted to the . Provost of Ayr, to be by him,deposited in J the Monument on the Banks of the Doon, as an humble offering from Scotchmen in Montreal, at the shrine of Scotland^ Bard." ' , I | Gen. James Hamilton, was, at the^tetf dates, at the Hague, on the eve, it is said, of cor.c'uding a treaty with the Governmcnt of the Netherlands' for the recognition of the Republic of Texas.?Pilot. . * t # The Biter Bit.?A good story is told of ' a chap in North Carolina, who went the 1 entire figure in the way of marrying all the I girls who would have him, without waiti ing for any of them to die off, as the law directs. After having married the thir: teenth, some of his first loves came down upon him and had him placed safely In jail. But a person so fond of perfect lib&ri ty and who could get out of hymen's noose I with such case, found little difficulty in getting out ot the " jug," and the next new# ; of him he was running at large with a heavy reward offered for his apprehension* He was shortly recognised by a gentfe- * 1 man, who, anxious to get the rewftrd> ? I vitcd him to his house, desired him to sit 'down, called his wife to chat with him a9 ; an inducement to detain him there, while he made some excuse for leaving a few ! minutes, and started for a constable to ar| rest the runaway. What was the poor j man's astonishment on returning with the constable, to find that the Lothario, taking advantage of his short absence, had absconded with his wife. This makes the i fellow's stock of wives now on hand fourteen. Where's Daddy ??a six foot1 Yahoo who had his logs at least pine inches too far through his breeches, with a loaf of', gingerbread stuck under his arm, and as much in his fist?one end of which he had i just drawn from between his jaws, leaving his mouth filled, was met by a gentk> man in Natchez in the middle of the street, of whom he inquired in a whining tone. " Have you seen any thing of Daddy?"' ?" No!" replied the gentleman. " Well* darnation seize daddy, I told him he'd* lose me?" said our hero crying as he proceeded, half bent sticking the gingerbread into his coun'TPnee at an alarming rate.. Picayune.
