PROPOSED BIBLE CONVENTION. '
A Circular prepared by direction of the Charleston
Bible Society.
Charleston, Mav 1S37.
" r;K1a I
Sir:?Tiie Managers 01 1110 VVilcLi ll/ObVU *#iv?v
Society, have appointod the undersigned, a com.
mittec to prepare and send forth a Circular, invi- |
tirg the several Bible Societies in the State to
unite with them by their delegates, in a Conven. i
lion, to be held at Columbia, on Tuesday the 5th
December 1837v
The objects to be secured by such a Conven.
tion. are to ascertain what has been done in this
Stato for the last four or five years in givim*
circulation to the Bible; what facts may bo cob 1
lected, which will throw light upon our yet re t
mainiug destitutions; whether it is expedient, to
?ngagc simultaneously in rcsupplying the State <
with the Word of Life upon a plan similar to t
that which was agroed upon in Columbia, several <
years a^o; and if so, by what means and by what ;
agencies the plan can be most fully and thor- t
oughly, and jcdiciously carried into effect, so t
that our entire reading population, have free access
to copies of the Holy Scriptures in their e
own possession. And finally to deliberate upon r
any other subject connected with the diffusion
Rihlc. whether at homo or abroad, in
Christian or in heathen lands. i
The general fact is known,' that districts of
country, which have been thoroughly supplied
one year have contained many destitute families i
he next; and what is true of one district is true J
of all the rest, as the same causes operate to ere- s
ate the want, viz: the formation of new families, (
the immigration of others, and the wearing out 01 z
the Bibles themselves In most cnscs where a T
re.supply has been uadertaken, after an interval ?
of four or five years, the destitution has been
found full half as great as at the period of the
original supply, and in some cases greater, fiom
the causes already assigned. We allude to this
fact because it was one of tho principal motives
which induced the Managers of the Charleston
Bible Society to propose a convention.
The Committee regard it as superfluous to urge |
the subject upon your consideration by any fur.
ther remarks, as all the reasons for a Convention,
which we could submit, must be farniiliar to your
mind. All that we l/*vo so solicit, is, that you
would call the attention of your society to the
proposition, that should they deem it expedient,
delegates may bo appointed to represent your Society'
in the Convention. <
wft have the honor to subscribe ourselves, in ,
name, and by the appointment of the Managers
of the Charleston Bible Society your fellow la.
borers in the Bibb cause.

Reduction of Freights.
AT a meeting of the boat owners of Cheraw,
held this day, it was resolved that the
freights from Georgetown ought to be; reduced
and they accordingly revised the present rate of
freights and made a considerable deduction in
almost every article, amounting,in the general,to
an average ot twenty to twenty five per cent.
The present rates will be uniform and a large
quantity of them printed and distributed through
the country for the satisfaction of the country
Merchants and others who may be dispo?ed to
ship their goods by this place. There is now
an effort making to reduce the freights and
charges from New York to Georgetown and we
tiust if we arc successful that Country Merchants

From tho Western Christian Advocate.
Popery in France and Italy.?A Correspondent
of Zion's Herald, now in Europe,
furnishes very interesting accounts of the
state of the Roman Catholic religion. He
affirms, respecting the papal church, in
France, that the pol tical tendencies of the
times, since the first revolution, had been
all against it; that its priests are scep'ics,
and adhere to it only for their salaries; a
few of the higher classes sustain it, only for
its influence in restraining the people; the
lowest of the people only, yield to it through
ignorance and superstition, and that the
improvements in education dec., will soon
destroy their regard for it; that its churches
are deserted, its fables laughed at, its priests
despondent; and that the only support upon
which it yet leans (its connection with
the state) is tottering beneath it. The
Abbe de La Meunas, who endeavored to
persuade the pope and clergy to abandon
the peculiarites of their system to no purpose,
hn9 left the Roman church, and has
turned the efforts of his mighty genius and
- extensive attainments against the church of
Rome, in a work entitled "The Affairs of
Rome." In this lie employs the following
. language:
\ 14You feel at Rome a kind of vague,
melancholy, oppressive sadness. You
would go there to die, not to live, for of lifethere
is scarcely a spark. No movement
except the movement of the thousand petty
interests which crawl and bleat in tho dark
ness, like worms upon the floor of the tomb.
The government and the people appear
to you like spectres of past ages. The
I queen city, seated in the midst of a desert,
has become the city of death. * * *
Repose, idleness, sleep, interrupted from
time to time by shows which move the
senses, from the happiness of this people;
who yet retain germs of a nobler and more
p energetic character. There is no opporr
tunity for patriotism; nothing to call forth
noble deeds, nothing social; the established
' government makes no account, in its low
calculations, of the soul of man. Is this
j satiation? Is this a country? Italy! Italy!
thine ancient dead arise; on the sides of the
Appenines the shepherds behold them, with
a sad brow, and eyes covered with the dust
of the sepulchre "fastening their proud looks
on that land once so glorious, so free; and
. as if they did not recognize it, shaking their
f heads with a bitter and horrible smile, they
5 lie down again in the tomb! * * *
j The voice of the sovereign pontiff, which
, once thewhole^world needed, has been, it
i must be confessed, take the nations togeth5
er, like the voice of one crying in the
1 wilderness. Look only at the mostCathoj
lie countries. Is Ireland less attached to
1 what are called her rights? What has been
t seen, and what is still seen in Spain and
- Portugal? Do any party concern ihems
selves about Rome and her Dogmatical
; prescriptions? Who there dreams of send,
ing to Rome for direction? D'ics not fhc
j most trifling diplomatic note obtain more
attention, and cxer: more influence than ail I
the letters of the holy Sec? What account p
do these governments make of Home? 1
What place docs she occupy in the minds a
of the people? Pursuing their object with A
resolute constancy, the people of the peninsula
met in their way the monastic orders, ti
What did they do with them? Have they C
respected persons, properties, jurisdictions? c
Why these attacks upon the clergy, this a
violence and hatred, in Spain and Portugal? c
Come they not from ihe real or supposed u
opposition of the pries s to the freedom > t!
which the majority of the people demand? tl
that is to say, from their bigoted attachment ft
to the system to which Rome is pi jdged? |t
What is become, in Prance, G .-rmanv and c
Poland, especially for four year* past, of ri
the power which U <. once ox'uied over
men? Does Rome ry?w muddy public T
opinion, influence at ail the public con- l!
science? * * * \Vi?:it is the reason ol n
this d<ep. universal decline of <he pontifical p
power1. Rome knows. The power of the w
pope is now here less rooted than in Italy F

where it does not oppose their inclinations, e;
but beyond these it finds low besides rig.
orous censors and enemies. The middle le
and higher classes of Italians n ?t only do ci
not believe in it, but they reject it vvi.h vio. a
lent animosity; they hate it vvitti an impla vv
cable hatred, as the chief cause of their =*
couutiy's calamities. Aus'ria i stdf is less
detested than popery* It is sad to s iv it, ~
but in tlic present state of things the tru h
should not be hid?for what will a fdse
silence avail? If, then, Italy were left'the
herself for a duv, a single dav, and to s,'
existing government had no o her suppon '
than the decree of the head of the church, lC
a revolution woulJ to-morrow ox'end from
Turin to the exlremi v of Calabrins." a
Nevertheless, Meunais has adopted a
species of religion composed of infideli v, ^
Romanism, and Protestanims, which gives P'
little hopes of benefiting the cause of pure
Christianity. Continental Europe stands in
great need of evangelical missionaries.
It seems to us tlpt American Me;hodis:s
ought to occupy this field, which they coukl 11
do to very great advantage. ^

PROPOSED EXCLUSION OF ROMAN CATHOLICS n"
FROM PARLIAMENT.
to
On Saturday a meeting was held in 'die b<
Lower Room, Lxetcr flail, for the purpose 0
of taking into consideration the propriety oi k
petitioning the Legislature for the exclusion i
of Roman Catholics from both houses of u
Parliament. There were about three hun- g
dred persons present. Ladies were not b
admitted into the room. Capt. Gordon was e
called to the chair. The Rev. Dr. Hollo- ?
way opened the meeting by prayer. d
The chairman said they had met for tin. p
purpose of petitioning tiic Legislature t?r tin
expulsion of Roman Catholics from Purlin. t<
ment. (Loud cheers.) It was with no *
feeling of personal satisfaction that ho en- a
gaged in tuis work. It was unpleasant for a
him to impeach any body of men, especally ji
men possessing tlio elective franchise, but c
he had a duty to perform as a Christian >e
and as a Protestant. He believed the admission
of Roman Catholics to power in a b
Christian State, was an infraction ofati ira- e
plied compact entered into between the p
Protestant kings of Europe. He also held o
that the admission of Roman Catholics in a 'J
christian State, was a violation of the laws t!
of the moral Governor of the Universe, und ji
those who countenanced such admission b
committed idolatry. (Hear hear.) A ii
Roman Catholic could not legislate for the u
interests of the Protestant religion, lor he y
was nledged by an oath to oppose it. It
was impossible that any Ministry could gov- i,
ern this country on Proleslaut principles c
j while forty Roman Catholics were in the p
House of Commons, (Hear.) h was therefore
the duty of Protestants of thiscoun- t
try to petition the Legislature for the expul- c
sion of the Roman Catholics iVcm I'arlia- d
men:. (Cheers.) (
The R'w. Dr. Holloway. Loudon street t
Chapel, Fitzroy-square; then rose to move <3
the first resolution. He commenced by t
vindicating the clergy of the church ol Ii
England from the charge brought agaias 'J
them, of interfcrring in politics been use th?v j|
took part against the Roman Ca.hohcs. FIc
said it was impossible, in such a case as the ii
present to avoid political matters because the ii
Roman Oa'holic religion was so closely h
\ mixed up with politics. The question a: ii
stake was the safety of the Protestant

bo heaped on him for appearing there a
that day. This mattered nothing to him, p
wherever principle was concerned, there he t
would take his stand. (Long continued i:
cheers.\ The Roman Catholic Members t
1. 1
had committed gross perjury in int'Tlering h
with the affairs of the church, and having s
forfeited their oaths, it was right they should t!
be called on to forfeit their scats. (Loud a
applause.) The Roman Catliohc religion e
was a viper in the bosom of the Protestant
church, by the alliance which had been en- d
tered into with them. The Roman Cutli- <1
olics ought to bo expelled on other grounds, c
?on the ground of undeniable palpable il
gross perjury. (Tremendious Cheering.)? t<
After the meeting had shown by their cheers <]
that they assented to the truth of the charge e
lie would not take their time by proving it. fi
but would at once read the resolutions which
were as follows: I
"That the addmission of Roman Catho- ii
lies to political power in a Christian State 1
is a direct violation of the implicit compact I
which exists between it and the moral Gov. r
crnor of the Universe, a national union with
idolatry, and a virtual adoption of the infidel i
principle that religion has nothing to do I
with personal qualitica'ion lor civil govern, r

"That Roman catholic members of the
legislature have forfeited their title to all the
olitical privileges conferred by the Act of >.

The Rev. Mr. Pag" seconded the resoluon.
Ever since the admission of Roman
latholics into tliejeg stature there had been
onstant attacks on the church of England,
nd he could smte a most important fact,
otnmtihicateil to him by some clergymen
fho wete Iiere from A merino, that when
le clergy of the church of England die in
?r colonics there no provision is to be made
jr their successors. The people were to be
>ft"to the operation of the vohin'ry priniplc.
The res lu ion was then pit' nudcar

Mr. Baxter moved *he second r? solution.

[e concluded by moving a resolution that
petition be presented :o parliament for the
^elusion of Roman Catholics.
A gendeman whose name we could not
am, seconded the resolution, which was .
tnred unanimously, as was the adoption of
petition to both houses of parliament which

AGRICULTURAL.
N RUYING AND STOCKING A
FARM WITH CATTLE.
The first object of attention, is to conder
the proportion l>?-tween his s tick and
.c^quaniiy of feed which will be necessary

id fertility of the soils that compote his
rm arc worthy of no ice ; also the purpose
ir which he designs more particularly to
rar or feed his cattle; whellkT for the
lily or for beef.
In fact, it will be expedient to oljSorvn
ic greatest exactness in this proportion,
cause, if he should overstock his land, h?
ill be compelled to re-sell before thecals
are in a fit state for the market, and, .
DnscqucntJy, at certain loss; while, on
le other hRnd, he will incur a loss in his
rofit, if he should not s ock his land with as
miiy cu'tle as it will b?at.
Formerly, a great prejudice prevailed in

of stock great progress may be made

pecies. Among the various professional
reedersof modern times, few have attaind
greater celebrity than the lute Mr.
lakewell of England, to whom we are inebted
for many new and important iinrovements
in the science of rearing cattle.
The principle which he invariably adop.jd
was, to select the beast, that would
reigh most in the valuable poin a; so that;
rhile he gained in point of shape, lie also
cquireJ a more hardy brced-?By attendig
to the kindlineaa of tlieir skin, he beame
possessed of a race which was more

For many years the practice was to jud^t
y the eye only, without regarding the othr
qualities of lite animal. But, in the*
pntfonf imnrnved flw.armrfi rational mn L,
f forming the judgment has been adopted.
?he sense of touch is now brought in aid of
te sight. By repeated practice, tae art of
J'lging of the ki.idliuesss to fatten has been
rought to such perfection, that any well
lformed breeder, will toll almost instantu.
eously, in what poin s or pars they will or

boulders ought not only" to be light of

In the -purchasing of catlU, whether in u

grounds than these into which he intends
o turn them. For, in this eas<', he must

elect them, ei.her from stock feeding i.j

Docility of disposition, without i>eing

Hardness of consl.iuiior, particuluriy in
leak and exposed districts, is indeed a most
mportant requisite. In every case it is
