Last week we complained very
gently of Ihe Secretary of the (Jet-
era! Synod, who, we are informed,
was by a resolution reqweated to pre
pare an Abstract for the Viator,
which however has uot yet been re
ceived. This week—June 37th, we
complain of the gentleman, who, aa
‘‘Profeasor " notified aa, prom
ised to preseut our readers with aa
account of what took place daring
the great week at Salem, Virginia.
Nmmm ruiqne.
That is the way we are assisted.
Yes, and these are the men who call
the Visitor alow, and who tak4 aa to
task if weMo not honor them, and
serve their private interest* at the
sacrifice of those of the Visitor and
all the churches. A n import*.
. < Almost Incredible, But Yet True.
A gentleman the other day asked
ns, what do I owe f We looked, and
told him you have pawl to No. 360,
Said be, I thought so j bat I learn
from your paper that not a few fail
to pay. I did not think it poasibte,
that any one would take a religious
paper and then not pay for it W§
tried to explain to him that many
chnrch-mcmberti were not Christiana,
that these dishonest Lutherans were
the same w|o subscribed for the sup
port of their pastors but refused to
pay their subscription when due,
that it waft the fault of the church
council, who allowed dishonest men
—thieves iu fact—to remain iu the
church, and that the ministers were
alter all the real offenders, because
they did not teach their people that
men should pay their rows, owe no
man any thing, and bouor Ood with
their substance. We failed however
to make any impression ; be insisted
that every man who subscribed for
a religious paper should pay, and
that a failure to do it would keep
such a man out of heaven. Of
course we agreed with him there,
believing that a man should both
pray and pay. Some pray, but pay
not; it is breath wasted. Some pay
and pray not; they are apt to learn
to pray; others neither pray nor pay,
they are outcasts.

Delinquent*.
We are loth, although fully de
termined, to publish their names
and places of habitation, to proclaim
their guilt to all our readers. We
therefore delay, and have instead
made one more effort to induce them
to act honesjUy toward ns. If any
one fails to discharge bis indebted
ness to ns, after all our forbearance,
importuning, and endeavors to make
him act justly, be will loose bis good
name, disgrace the church, and if be
has children, they will not inherit
an unsullied name, nor feel proud
of their parentage. Our colleague
agrees with us; the last question we
asked him, when at Staunton, waa:
shall we. publish them! fie an
swered; “Yes, although 1 think all
your Staunton subscribers will pay.
I have no dogbt you will find, when
you return home, letters from every
on©.* Wq are at home, have bean at
home six days, bat there is not a
letter from Staunton.
We to-day mail to delinquent sub
scribers in Virginia, eighty-eight (88)
Postal Cards, with a statement of
the indebtedness, to ocr debtors la

A week ha* elapsed since we wrote
the above, and we have only heard
from three. J
, jffe have also sent accounts to W.
Va., where there are 18 delinquents
and 148.16 due. Four have an

is the habit since the warm weather
set in to allow the bends to get too

oar editor, Dr. Rude, stood ap before

head too low. If a man can sleep
under such n voice as the Doctor

without spy rocking. The old Doc

articles in tbe Visitor iu ies)ionse.

the series of articles from tbe able

opinion of others. His object was
art to create a false impression—
namely, that some of tbe aiinisters
of this Synod are “as Lutheran," as
a recent writer in Oar Chunk Coper
dearly enough insinuates. This
writer asks os a number ot questions,
aad, as it la convenient be will not ob

ask, does be bot know what was our
