compelled to dcMst trom preaching, and, If noesible, overcome tbone difflculties, ana recover the lost troBMure,-~-tbe voice, that to a minister or lawyer is more valuable than gold or jewels,— or be fiileut forever. I ft|i|ilicd to the most eminent phyBicians, and whh but little hoijxd; save tlie excision of an elongated uvula, tliey could do notliing but advise rest; and this I was com-pelled to take. What caused and a»n-tinued that constiint irritation and hacking cough, they could neither ex-plain nor prevent. Providencc threw the remedy in my way. M v wile was aulTering from prolapitus uten, and the prolesaor of the theory and practice of me<licine in the University of Nashville Dr. Winston, was her physician, and lie prescrilwd for her this identical Bruce, wnich sjieedily .viietoil h" ' She i-oni-plained ot a " dragging down; " and no language cc'.'W betwr express my feelinga, and especially after preaching.

and put it on, the first timsdoubtless it was ever worn by a man tor such a reaaoo, anU -the result was, tha ir-

St u t i ^ of my throat won quieted, and

IP I * king ere long » J voice commcnccd binldiii|^ u >, uutil I could articulate, which 1 Imi not <lone for twelve months, and very soon I com-menced to preach again. That Brace I wore nearly ten years withoutcommuni eating lu wonderful advantages to any one, Mcause I thought I was using an article that was inventetl for the Ui*o of females only. Privately, to a few spccial friends who weie sulfering as 1 suffered I expUined the nse oJ the Brace, and through me they obtained it, and were relieved as I was, I now made known the power ot the Brace to restore, strength-en and prpasrve the voice in public epeakers, and then commenced ofTerbig it as a premium to ministers for subscrib-•ra.

The cause of hoarseness, sore throat, laryngitis, and finally bronchitis in subiic sixater ,and all thee*- symptoms of "dra^ glng down," goneness, exhaustion alter iiwakinif, and weakneww of tlie back and loins, piles, and ,.eruia, M the mlight re-laxation of the abdominal nimcles, which allows the bmveh to sink, and knowft by marked hollows over the tip* ot the hips. Now all know that the linings ot the stomach are connected with those of the throat and affect the vocal organs, and when the stomach sinks a straining is brought to bear upon the throat, and speaking or talk-ing will irritate it f i d produce hoarse ness, and if coniinuit. sore throat, and all the train of evils tj.i»t pubiicsi eaki rs are wont to compkln of, and which has carried hundreds to their graves,. and whidi yearlyare laying Bsiclc as useless hundreds ot sthers.

Now, alter a p<>nioual experience of ueariT twenty yr-nrs. and the added oxp..-rienoo ot more than one thousand minis-tera and pubiiu speakers upon whom i have fitted the iJrace with invariable aumas, I am prepared to testily of iu real merlU. Without it, I amjiatisflcd I aiiould have been laid aside fVom public aimakiug eighteen yearn ago. By using It, I have luily recovered a lost voice" and am ijieswid with one of uncommon power and onduranco. Without it, two or tbreo wrmona exhauit and ^ v e me

(Acts ii. 2.%) In this great transaction wo lose sight of his betrayers, and his accusers, and his niurtlcrcrs; and w e s w only tho Father travailing in the greatness of his love to Ills family.

Arguing from tho great(>r to t he less, ho proceetis to assure the be-liever t»f Ootl's readlnesH freely to bestow all lUHMiful bli>s«iiigs. To this he stood pledged. T h o gift of his own Hon, so freely and unreservedly bestowed, was tho security and tho channel of* every other mercy. When Ood gave hia Son tiio reconciliation hatl not actually been effected, Justlcti hatl rec( 1 ved no satlsfHctlon, and the broken law no repair. Thus "Ood «)tnmended his love towaril us. In that while we were yet Hinncra Christ dknl for us ." (IU)m. v. 8.) If, thon, when we were enemies we were reconciled to OotI by the ileath of his Son, much more, being recon-cilctl, will ho freely glvo us all things. " A l l t h i n g s " ! How ctnnprchensive the grant ! " A c -coril ingas his divino power hath given unto tw all things that iwrtaln unto llfo and godliness."

i 'eter 1.;[.) Hohilng tho security in the h a n d of faith, you may repair to your heavenly Father , ami ask for all tha t you need. So to S|)oak, Go<l luiM bound him.solf to wlthliold no good t h i n g from you. Ho is i)ltHlgctI, and from that pledge ho will nev(!r rm>de, to grant you all you nee<I. What is your demand? Is it the Spirit to s ^ l , to sanctify, to comfort you'.' Thon draw near and ask the g i f t : " For if yo who aro evil know how to givo good things to your children, how miieh more shall your heavenly Father give t he Ut>ly .S]iirit to them that ask h i m ? " Is it I)ardon? Then ask It. Ho who provided tho sa(?rificc for sin, will he not freely bcHtow tlie for-giveness of sin ? Is It grace? Hav ing given you the Ucscr\-o!r of grace, is ho not as willing and "ab l e to make all grace abound towartl you, t ha t ye, always having all sUlBclency in all things, may abound to every good work " ? (2 (hr, ix, 8.) Is it comfort? Having given you tho "Conso-lation of Israel," will lie not provts to you tho "Ootl t)f all comfor t "? Is your necessity tem-poral? Are yt)ur circumstances advetBO? Flllo<l with lorcbotlingM of approaching difliculty, tho cruse of oil and tho barrel of meal wasting, a re yon "tnxious nnd fearful ? Take .your teinimral needs to Omi. Wliat ! will ho bestow tho higher bhtdslngs of gnux;, and withhold tbe Inferior onen of providence? Never ! A n d can you press to your believing heart tho prlcelesH, precioua, un-8i>eakahle gift of hhi Son, and yet cherish in tha t lieart the gloomy, misgiving thought of God's unwillingness antl jnabil i ty to supply all your iieetls?

" Frtjcly give," God's g i f ts aro both rich aud gratuitous. He always bestows more, never loss, than wo ask. It would seem as though ho coulrt not t)|Hjn his hand to n pobr comer but i t over-lIowtHl with a bounty wor thy of himself, Here are m o t all the objections to our coming which spring fVom our unworthincss, unl ru l t fa inen and unfaithfulness.

Ood has all eternity before him to accomplish his work.

Would not this IKS unwise in tho extreme? i t really seems so to me. But the doctrinc which conlintfs all iirogrens in tho divine lifo to this world, is loundwl upon this very principle. Wo livo here a fow brief years in ignorance and sin, and then jiass away to another woi ld ; and the conunon th(!ory Is, that Ood has no farther con-cern for the recovery of his err ing children, hut gives thom over to his worwt enemy to he tor-mented to all e te rn i ty!

• p i E A R BAPTIST:.—Tho meeting has just chwod at our church. Tho services contin-

ued six ww'ks. Bro. Ilillsnian was assisted by Bro. W. A ^loidgomery, CorrcHpondont Secretary State JSIliMlon Board. Tho Intortwt was Intense fnmi tlio commencemont, yet not at all Iwistrous. Tho result was one hundretl conversion, with forty-slx accessions, and a number who will y«!t join tho church at tho first opportunity.

Wo eatlmate our white population In tho town at llftcon hundretl, and from a careful count, there aro loft unconverted within tho corporate limits of tlio town Ufty-flvo heads of families and sixty adults, not hoads of fandlles.

Can you not reioico witli us, our hearts are so luU of graUtudo to God.

" T h e Baptists, however, do not date from tho Ueformation. Thoiigii anti-papists, tiiey uri. not, III tiie tecimical and historicid sense of the word, I 'rdtestants; for though they have ever protested, and do now proti-st, against the heresies aiKl abominations of Rome, they did not eomo out from Rome, having never been identiticd with the Itomiin idorarchy."

On pageK, he says;— " Bantlst princiiilcH and Baptist practices have

existed In all the ages Irom th(! Reformation hack to apostolic t imes."

And on page il-'i, Dr. Taylor saj*H: — " I humbly claim that wo originated, not at tho

Reformation, nor In tho dark ages, nor In any century after the aj)ostlcs; but that our marching orders aro tho Commission, and that tho first Bap-tist church was tho Church at Jerusalem. And I beg you, calling no man miwter, like the Berean .lews, to .search lhi> Scriptures dally, whether thoHo things bo HO."

Mr. Orchard, tho historian,says: — " I have demonstrated, so far as human testi-

mony Is allowwl to prove any fact, that tho Bap-tist church, as tho Church of Christ, has exlstcni from (ho day of Pentecost lo this prlvllegetl perhid."—Orchard's Bapt. His,, vol. H. p. 11.

Mr. Benedict says: — "Tho Welsh Baptists have tho fullest conlldanco

Their country, In their estimation, was another Piedmont, where thf! witnesses for the truth found sholtor and con-cealment in times of unlvonwl darkness and superstition.''-Bon. His. Bap., p. 844.

OBITUARIES. i;i.I». MOSIJS WILllUKN.

Tlie subject of tliis notice was born on the—— day, of , in — - — c o u n t y , Tenn., died Ju ly Itii instant.

Born of obscun^ and unpretending parentage; brought up in the hills and mountains of Han-cock with no advantages of wlucatlon or general culture, our brother never enjoyed Unit notoriety and jirominence w hich his Hitllii worth «o Justly merln-d. Wo <-ouid not call him an orator, yet. his pulpit ministrations were with great jiower and ellW't; lie was not to say eIo<|uent, nevortlie-Iws, tliere was an attractivencHS and fluency alwut Ids spe<'ch which betrr.yed his wonderful path(w of soul, tho pious fervency of his htort and tlie living zeal of his nature. Ho was wanting neither in encrury of mind nor ondurenco ot IxKly. ' He was tiierefore jireparwl for those migh ty laliors and travails which havo given birth to so much good, far-rwiching and Inwilculahlo in our midst. Your unworthy writer, while u mere youth of fourteen summers, was burled in tlto b(»autiful waters of Clinch by this holy man of God—yea, with his pious hand ujion our httid, with a "welcome toJcHUs" from his bcsmihing lilH, and tearful eyes, our stubborn and yet tender heart, mude tlio final, the hopeful rcf«)lveculmin-ating into life eternal. In tho death of Bro. Wll-burn the country has lost a good and law-abiding citizen; the church one of iior strong pillars. H e has fallen. In the arms of J w u s he sleejM, sweet-ly slcei>s. llis life—nearly a half contury—was spent in sow ing precious setnl. H e Howcd with unfeigned tears, his heart will swrn wave mature and golden in eternal lield.s. IIl.s labor has not been in vain, IK? will reap In everlasting Joy—hlw trials on this earth woro many, his glories in heaven are more. My dying reiuler, our l-^ithor In Isroal has only exchanged the cross for Uio erown ! S. E . J O . Y K S .

K. D. Hailey, Jr . , ago sixteen years, diet! of flux and congestion, al his father 's lioaso Madison county, Tcnii., Juno 2k, 1878. Ho had Ijecn u member of tho Baptist church two years. S a m m y was a good hoy and beloved by all who k n e w him.

He was followed July , by his motlier M. J. Halloy, lu tho forty-fifth year of her age. Tho cause of her death was tho habitual uso of mor-phine. She had Ixxai a member of»tho Baptist church twenty-five years. She was u devoted wlfu and IiiKilher, and loaves an afTectionato hus-band and six children to mourn lior loss.

" N(*vt r to .sorrow more, never to roam, Ood's chfldren are gathering homo."

Thirt waH my llrst mingling with Wnst Tcnn«w«o IJaptiats outnidc of my own churfh. 1

' am truly glad to Hriy tho iinprfssion inac'i'iiiuni ine was altogether 1H it out of iilact* to testify to lids in tids pul)lii' wiiy? I'erha|w not. Ivet it iMJHaid, then,—

l.,(A»nipIt'te /larmoni/ prfivailed tliroiij,''' tiro procecdinKrt. Not u jiirrinj; soniid, — not a discordaid note, was lieurd during thr whole tliret! days. Tiie brethren Hwmed to Ix- of Hie .sjime mind, iwiiiR in oiw jilace with one accord. J td id WHun tiiey all remeiubered they had liiet to do laisiness for tho L»>rd; iienco the la'autiful spirit, and tho dignilkjd tone, ol the oilicors and members of tho AstHK'iation as a wholi'.

2. There was no uwlens diiicimioii. 'i'his is eomraon with otlier delil)enitiv«! l>odit«, but iri>t with BIK Hatehle, if all its ineetinKs are like its last. A few (•omi>relienslve, suitable, telliti); speeches were made by eonipetent brethren on tho reiHjrts of committees, and then the vott-s were promptly takon. No long, lediou-*, un-noccssary inultiplleation of words hy brethren un-acquainted with the subject, or uni>repariHl to speak, triod the patience of the hearers. There seemed t(j lx> no diwire or inclination to en;?aue in such. Thu sp<>oches tlud were made, for the most part, seemwl necesmiry, —without them the pro--eeedinga iiad l>een incomplete. They were not long, tiresome and stale. The reimrts were nood, —were read with animation, and were listened to with careful and devout interest. Whi'n a s)>caker was on tlie lloor, he had the ear of the Aftiociation, and spoke with ease and usisunince.

2. No attempt at a apjKiirwI. Every re-port, every speecli, every rmoluiion, every motion, seemeil to proceed from an <jarnest, ile-lil^emte, humitie desire to contribute tiomethinK to the success and harmony of tho proctHidinKs, and the goo«l of the general cause. JVo little, stale, frivolous criticisms, meaningless n'piirtees, or vain attempts at "smartness," wcr«' made. This of itwilf is worthy of hiffh praise. Nor w'as tliere an effort on the part of any brother to udverllflo Idmself by significant mancuverlngs, grandiloquent liaranKues, or empty bombast. Thospeakem were in airnest, and evidently meant something in all they sidd.

4. Tho proceedings were charactOTized by mmr-mmf, order, dmpafcJi. When the sjiceches are what they ought to be, and the harmony and spirit are worthy of such ii meeting, then there will always be movement, orrter and dispatch: othorwiae there t«nnot be. This is n grand triumph in an associution of Baptists, whore every member haa a iKjrfeet right to move, rewdve und speak Ju«t as much and as long as ho pleasos, ami must bo sot down to the croilit of—

6. Tho princely rule of tho dignitled mwlerator. This loads mo to speak ol Bro. Graves in a manner that may not bo considered in good taste, sinco this Is his own paper; but it comes in m y way to say It, and I will say It, believing It can neither ofltond nor flatter any one. Horotoforo it has not iMsen my privUego to associate with Bro. Graves | and I am truly glad to record hero some of tho Impressions made upon mo, as I saw h im In tho moderator's chair of Big Hatcblo Assoelatson.

First, then, ho moderatos w«ll. Hlii doolslon is . quick and inflexible. He knows how ta s a y - N o 5

and he says It with flrmnesB and bccomlog dignity. Again, Bro. Graves is princely in ejctondlng

courtesies to his brethren. Wo who have Just be-come meoabcrs cannot fall to rocognlKe 4Uid ap preoiate tho generous klndneas that BO (HR^ctually

Wo ant thank-Introdnml iw to the Association ful.

Another fact that impn-Hseii nxf, and wbicii it given mo great pleasure to note hero, is that Bro. flravew is lionorwl in bis own ^siociatlon. It la often said, and nearly every tlujo tben» is truth in It, that 'hi prophet is not witliout honor save in his own country." Es|H>clally i« tbls very fnniuently true with jx'rsons who are as widely known as is tliv tniitor of T HE HAXT IHT.

Never iiefore has it l.eon my phntsure to hear Bro. (Sravcw preach when 1 w*s in a etuidltion to bear and apprwlate a discourse. On Humhiy at the Association be came forwanl, in the open air, at noon ol a very warm day, elovateil his volet- sO as to be heunl by all uf thi- lar>r<- iiumbcr of persons pres« iil, und kept it at that pitch without interiois-doii or any illtfpositioii to iiecome wvary, Irtspu'iidy speaking with gr«it force and power and volume, for something more than tiirce hours. Nor did he stH'iii in tiie least fatigmtl after he hail taiken his seat, 'i'ltis, I thought, was worthy of remark.

At this Associatidi), l«ro. (inivcs, for M> lie is CUIUMI by al l t he bretlireii a n d was HE.en minglinu with the iireiiirtii, preacliiiig iiml pray-ing and working. The impiesiion tiiis made upon me was di-ep, ami is iiere tiobil with I)l«vsure, and r»'coriled witli j(»y. l>cep piety, sincere spirituality, licautiful s implkity and de-vout humility st.H'ine<l to cliaracteri/.e lilm chiell.v in these relations. Witii what joyful devotion he wing, " H o w iirm a foundation, ye saints of the liord," wlien the AKsoeiation adjourned, and the Itrethren were bidding each other farewell! To any of his friends w ho have never iieen with l5ro. Ciraves oji any Mich occasion, but iiave read his spirited polemiis, and heard him discu-^-wd by otiH'rs, Mich an op|>uitiiiiity would be a great pUjisnro. Such it was to me.

ti Jt was really gratifying to mark the spirit in which tlie oldi>st living ministers of the atirtii reeoiinted the trials and l^ardship^ they were culleil upon M endure in the tstrly history ol the denomiualion in tiiis i)art of the Stati'. The remarks ol these lirethren were thrilling in interest and lovely in spirit. It were pleasant to mention their names here, iiut spaie forbids. Chief among them, and the oidi-st present, was Ilro. Horum, a veti'ran full of work and lull of jionor. These brethren, with those w ho are goiM', lUid whose works remain, bore the heat and burden of the day, invaded the forest, telhil the trctf , pos»e.s.se<l the land, sowed the good seed, built the churches, taught the «( hools, tilled the soil, raise<l their children, and laid broad and deep tlic foundation of the Haptist Zion in West Tenn.os«H'. They did the work : we enjoy the re-sults. Hingie-handed and alone they fought for <}od and tri-tli, antl for generations yet unborn. Of twse and lu.vury tliey knew netidng. 'I'hey had tho spirit of work, and liv«Hl for Ood and history. 01» that sucli a spirit may bless us who follow aftt'r to reap where they have sowji I Thank Ciod for Huch brethren. Ilemend)ered be their noblo deeds, ami lionore<l lie tiieir worthy names, by a grateful iiostority!

7. The brethren wanted to see reitorts ol larger aecesions next year. This the spirit of our religion,-—advance and incrnise in numbei-sand power. Tho Association is just llfty years old. Its incrwLse from a few hundreil to near six thousand, its present number, besides the number of ehurches that havo been lettered otV to form another As-soclatlon, is Indeetl encouraging, con-elderlng tho troublous times through which It has ipassed. But tho Increase this last yeiir was not dncouraglng. Tho number of baptisms reported liy the churchcH was not very large. Tho bretliren who Iwvo been watching these reports for years did not fall to notice this year j and It was seen In tljolr facos and tholr words that they felt sad about If. They wanted every pastor to pronUse, hy the holp of tho Lord, that ho would endeavor to bring up a better report next July at Wood-lanil. Tho llnal words of tho brethren on that Bubjoct, so exceedingly Important, and so emi-nently Christian, Impressed mo for good, and drew from my hoart a resimnslvo amen. God grant it that we may all ho blessed with health

and the spirit of work, tbid ww may see tho work of the I-onl prosjier in our hands. For this let us continue to work mid pray. B. 11. WOMAC^K.

Since the meeting of the Convention, at Nash-ville, the Board has increa,s<'<i Its force, both in the Domestic and Indian llelds.

These appointments are chielly at points, iin-portant as grow ing centres, but from which IHth' or no returns eitn be e.xpected lor s o m e time to come. Many applications for asslstaiKV must lie over for the pntient.

Bro. Holt writi"s eiu-ouragingly of his mission among the wild triltes, notwithstanding serious embarrassments by widch he has Inten surroHU(le<l. A lady of piety and culture, recently converttHlto Baptist principles, is an.vious to devote lierself to ndsslonary laborH among tho women of the un-civilized tribes of the Wichita Agency. Hhe t now ti|K)n the ground,.and tho Board only awaltn information that she bus joine«l a Baptist church to glvo her an appointment. Whllo wo wore Impressed with tho Imporhince of such lalwrers In this great harvest Held, but know not where to llnd them, Ood has provided one at the very place whero sho was most ncotled.

THK OUKilN OK l-RJOi: MA.SoNUV, l l / ' K have bwn repeatedly a^iked it we eonld

give the origin of I'lee .Masonry,—if it was indwd older than Chrisiianity ~ if indeed we are indebted to .Masonry for the presi rvation of our holy Hciipture's.

We can gratify our iiniuirers from an anthenfie souiw in the following condens. d from and aide article w hich apirt-ared in McMillan's Magazine, i:ngl«ud, prepared for that stan<lard montlily by IMward K.

Then men of tlie Mjinu trades und profi-ssions lormed them«>lves into guilds or fraternities (or mutual protection, and for the better maitdenajice and transnd.ssion ol the know'le<lge and art of which they, in theob-senceof books, were the living and only reposi torle-s. lu tlu) year lOOO, the w hole of Christen dom was po.s.scfW(Hl -with the idem that the end of tho world and the day of Judgment were at hand, and when the dreaded year had pa.H.sed, and the panic had subsided, a great im|)ulf.o to the buihl ing of ehurclias ari)<4e thrunghout C^intrnl and Western Europe. Tho tiuildings which w ore th( rtisult of this Impulso gave employmeiiL to large numbers of artillcora for periods of many years. Working at tlrst under ttie direction of bishojis and abbots, they oro long acqiured conslderal)le Indeix'ndenco. The " luy brettiren," as they had prttvioUHly been stylod, separating theinselves from their clerical suiwrlors, us well as from tho common laborers, assemblod In Jiauhiitten, or wooden buildings near tho site of the'churches, where they Improved theniHolves In thoprlncljiles of their art, blending with mathematical und artistic studies « mystic philosophy of Hacrod Hymlwllsm and Biblical nllUBslons. They were divided Into throo elassea, viz., ApprentUi-e {LeArUngen), young mon deemed worthy of admission into the fraternity; Fcllowcraftsmen (Ofigeiim), who hart so fur advanced as to lie able to work alone on the dctallii of tho art, and were bound to Impart their knowledge to the apprentices} and Masters, comparatively few In DQoiber, who WOTO coni|M<tout to nndor-wko th® design or direction ol Intiio work.s. In

the capacity of arehKwls, surveyoiu, or mastw. builder. The «'ntorod apprentice was intrusted with a socret sign and jwasword (Grtm), nnd bound on uuth to divulge to none but the Initiated either the knowliHlgoJieMhoidd luiulre or the rlt<w mid pnicliWH of his hxlgt... This nu'thod of mutual recognition was a nmxsity wlitn indentures and diplomas were unknown, but, taken in conjunction with the mystic phlloso-phy iiiculcat<Ml and the secret ritual practical within the lodges, it acquirwl in time a solemnity and a Hacredness which.could attach to IM> mere certillcates of membership or of proticiency. l"iirth<>r credentials were i>r(;v!ded in a set of MiicNlions and answers forming a .sort of cate-chism, oriiilly communicated, and guarded hy the same saiwtion, by which the " bretliren," a>) as they now <'aIlod one aiioilK--, onld give proof of their identity where ver tin y might t r avdh i .search of employment.

At lirst the several lodg(>.s worked independently of one another; bnt in the (IfteHith century the necensity ol further imion beyan to be felt, and on April ffi, I •••>!', a gathering of tho Master Masons of Central and Kouthern (Jermany was held at It^itisbon, when the regulations of the diiferent hslgcs wore ri'visiKl and eonsfilidated. In M!i2 a second and more general assembly was held, at which the whole of the Masons of Oennany were repre-Hented, and nnitcd into a single brotherhood, of which the chief of the lodge of StraHburg, whicli had long been recognizwl as a last court <(f ai>p(nd, «'ven by the !(Klg(!s of Austria and Switzerland, was deelareil perpetual liraml Master.

(^urrterly meetings and fe.stivals were held, and lodges of instruction tbunded. During the waus of the I'Hrliaiuent and the t.'onimouwealth, Kr(.c>-nia.sonry, as njiglit have been e.vj>e(vted from its close connection with art ami wilh the church, sntrere<i greatly; but it e.vjtericnced something of a revival in I(>.{!1, w hen Henry .lermyn.

' " Here then," to quoto the Words of Dr. Flntlel, tho grejit historian of tho craft, "wo are id tho end of ancient Masonry, I. e., operatlvo Masonry. Tho opemtive unisons, who for a long tiiuo past had b«>en flecreasing In number, now acknowkHlgOf^, by this resolution, that It was «»ut of their power, us o|)eralive nnwons, tocontluuo the oxlstencu of tholr fraternity any longer. They had fulfilled their mission by carefully preserving their ancient laws, traditions, and ceremonUw, and tmnsmlttlng them as a heritage to the Grand LfKlge of England.

for almost half a century publisiied In the Doc-frinnl Tracts, but of late yeai-s suiKsrscded by an atuiek upon Hnpllsts, are no longer hohl or taught by the church.

N o matter how olh(>r records have come lo us, tho Si;ri|tturo put« its record bcshio them, asserts this true, and waifs for (vnturh>fi for its vindication. The ancienl liistorians tell iis, for example, that tho king oi l iahylon, when that city was takpii and de.'troyed liy the I'ersinns, was not B(^l«ha/.zar, iiut .Nahona'ilius, or Labv-netus, a.s the nam(« arc given ilillerently in diflerent languagOH; that he was not capluretl In tho city, or kiiliHl, but that he escaped from I t ; that he fouglit a Imlth- after tiie capture outshlo of the c i t y ; that lie WiW defeatinl, and was then taken pri.soner; tliat he was made a satmp under tlio compieror; that ho lived for years afterward unmolest<sl; lived in ahunditntv, and diisl in l«'aco.

become a law-making |U)wer. I f a church has tho

If a counterfeit piece be conceal^ In a heap of money be will detect it bllndfeld^. All that is required is to run bis fingers through the maw, and in a moments every one is Ust^. This is the result of that remarkable POwer of touch which Ih only perfected by long practice, f uch a man is of Immoaso Ulue In a place like the trewurr. Coin in this Institution is handled In large sums, and It Is wheele<l on trucks like other merchaudlee, but ia woigbing a bag the loss of a single ploM would ^ noticed. The treasury is floored with marble tile, but these would won destroyed by the boavy trucks tbat roll through tho specie department. For this reasrm the ttr.mgost wooden floor is used, lielng made ol maple Ktrlps set in edgewise and laatened in the most socuro manner. Even such a bottom is none too solid for the iucessant trituration of Iron wheels and heavy burdens. [Troy Tlmen. '

UiKhtly understood, 1 know of no more ajiproiiriate word to use upon this DCCiiKioii, — tho celebration of the firnt .Jubilee of tlu! old liig Hatcble ..VHHOciation.

Let iw notice the lii.story ot the te.\l as we find It 111 1 Wiini. Ii. to vili. Inclusive.

Israel, (UmI'w eoveiiuiitiHl pcoph!, bad l»ecn stv duciMl away fnun the |»roper olwer%-aiice id' bis stntut*-!! to recognize other religloii.s und worHliip-s by tbo lax adminl-.tnitlon of Eli tind bl.s sons, who were in the priestV (dlice. Tbe son») ol Eli ubhorretl tbe aj)pointment.-i of the Lord, aiul re fufled to walk in tlieiu; ami by tin ir leaching lUid "xamjde, thoy taiifjhl the jieople lo »in, and pervert tbe right way.s of the Ijoid. (iod cliaiged the sin of bi.>j iK-ople upon the bouse of l';ii. (Head 1 ISaiu. ii. and iii. i haiiters.)

Thus we see the la.xity ui Eli, and the relielliotw example of lil.s wUfi, turned jKi-ael away irom tho I^ml, and bronchi upoii their nation lil-t (inick autl terrible displeiwun-. The wicked an- oft(>ii but a Hword i:i the hand <d'the Lord with whicli to chaHtisi hi.s people; and for tfiin piupo;-' I he I'hiliiifines remainc-d in the laiifl.

Tho Jiord brought up the Pliilliitineij against Israel, and a jjieat battle was fought; and there wero Pltiin of lurael thirty-four tlioustuid men. And tho two sons tif Eli were slain, and tbe ark of tho Lord tuken by thtf I'hilistincs, and carried to Aslithid, and .set ujt in the temple of Dagon; and all lisrael were made Hubject to their iiii-placiiido eiieuiie.s, —the idolatroUB Phill.sthuw.

When iill hcurd of tho defeat <d the army, tho d(»ath of hiH two houm, and the loss of the ark of Qotl, ho fell backward from oil' bin Heat by tho side of tho giito, und his tuMik broke, and ho di<'d; and tho wife of PhinehaH wits brought to her dmth by tho torriblo nowM. And thus wuh tho houfe of Ell brought to an end In ono and Iho Hamo day, iw a proof of <Io<I'h anger at thoir loose and wicked ways.

Tho children of Ihiael had boon setluccd by thoir religious loachora to acknowledge othor gods that were no OodH, and to afllllato with them In thoir klolatrouH worship. l''or IhlH God waH dls-ploaflod with thom, gave thoin over Into tho power of their enetulos), whoso gtalH they whorotl after to worship, left them without hlH ark and ovldenco of his proflcnco, cvon for tho npaco of twenty ycare. Twracl had sunk very low, and wero in very groat distress, and wero made to see their sin, and to laitiont Horcly after tho Lord they had eo sinfully forsaken.

Tho prointses of QikI have ever been yea and amon. Ifever did his pooplo turn Iroiu their hilquJty, and call upon him, that he did not havo mercy. As in tho Covenant of Bedotnptlon, so with respect to Israel now, Qotl's graco pre-venlent. Ho anticipated tho noeds of his people,

und provided <or them againut the day they would call ujion h|m fur help. Notice

1. The flrxl rnerci/ of God to Israel u m in raisiuy up unto litem a faitnful and Irm prophet in the phur of the home nf FUi, (he loose and iinfuith/iU.

Now Samuel wn» Instrumcntid in bringing Israel to a knowledge of thoir great nin, and lo an unfeigned reiientance toward Ood, and to di>-Hire tho rcH-overy wf tho ark, and the rc-establish-ai"nt among them of Uo<1'm true ordinaiic^s and {)ure worship, and to lament after a depart<tl (iotl. He introducoil a now Htato Of things. His first step wa.s to turn them away from the idola-trous worhdiijj of tho I'hilistlnert, and to reijuiro them to renounce and put away their Mtrani e gods, and to have no worship in common wBli the IMiilistines; for the I.ord only Is (Jod, aiul jealous of lib honor. (Ut ad 1 Ham. vli. ;»-17.)

lleligions und religious worshiji Invented und eHtablLslKHl by men In one ago of tho w^orld are no iKdter fban those which originatwi with men In another. If tho one i.s dishonoring and dih|dea.s-iiig to (Sod, so in the other; if one is idtdatroiis, so is the other.

Tiie tlellveraiietj of Israel was commenced at Miy.iadi, tbnugb e«'lebrato(i lH*twWMi Mlzpeh ami f?hen. Miz{H'li was tho place of their tioro trial. Merr» they huml)h?«l themselvi?fi Iw-foro Uod, ilrew water and jajured It out before tbo Lord, and con-f<-dt«d tludr sin. Their very e.xiHtenct) was threatenwl by their implacablfc euemh«, who csinie u|> with all their foK'os to destroy them. Hnt Israel laid fiold uiK>n the liord their (hxl in this their day of trouble, and looked alone lo him for their deliver.ince. And how glorious the result! Tbe Lonl overthrow their enemlo.s with a great sluughter, und ilelivere<l bis i«x>jde out ol their InuKlfi.

To cehdirate and inupetuati! Ibi.sovoat Haimiel took a stone, and .set it up U'l ween Mizpoli nnd Hheii, and cjilled the name of it "Ebonezer," saying, " Hitherto the Lord hath heliitnl us." Ebonezer, from this, (ume to moiui "Stone of Help."

Mo Israel wore turned away from the roliglon of the Phllhitinra to keep the ordlnancea of their God; and It is writlon, " thou wore their enemies suhduod before them."

To provide competent and tiithful religious touchers and prophels for Israol Hanmci i HtabllHhod schools Of tho j>rophotH both in Bethel and Gllgal, tho two extreniCH of his circuit which he traveled lus judge of Israel. Into these schools thoso whom OimI called to bo his i)ropheti< were gathered to bo Instructed, and trained for their work. It is re-cordetl that by these means Israol enjoywl jiros-perlty all tho days ol the llfo of Samuel.

THE APPIitCATION OK TMIS HI8T0HV. While all Scripture Is given by inspiration of

God, and Is profltablo for reproof tmd instruction In rlghtoousnes-s, yet the Old Testamont Scriptures aro largely typical of the realities brought to us In the Now by the work of Christ. All tho lead-ing characters of tho Old Testament, from Adam lo Elijah, tho Tlshhlto, are types. All tho cove-nants of tho Old Testament had their sourco and spring in tho Covonant of Iledomption. The family of Abraham, eeparatod from all othcrH by manual clrcumclaion, was a typo ot tho spiritual family of Ood, soparatod by tho circumcision made without bands by tho Bplfit iu tho heart. Tho twelve trlboo, sovorcign and independent, wcttj types of tiio local churches of Christ, com-posod exclUBively of the olrcumclsed in heart,— the momben of the spiritual family of God.

These twelve tribes, In tho fullnes of time brought togothor under ono constitution, antl organlwxl Into ono kingdom, of wlilch tho Lord Jeliovah was tho only head and king, were a typo of tho kingdom of Christ, CiUlod also kingdom of heaven, —of Owl, comiwHod of all his visible local churches, under tho solo hetulrth^i nnd klhgly rule of Jesus Christ.

If, thou, the klngtlom of Israel was Instltuted-to be a typo of tho kingdom and clinrch of Christ, are wo not .safe In concluding that Owl's dealing with hl-s covenanted pcopleof old wa.s typical of his dealing with his true spiritual Israel ?

In our own Christian oxperlenco who of us hav« not had our ^SliziKilw and Ebenezers?

Can we not look back and seo when we de|)arted In iKvart from tho love and service of God, and struck a truce with his enernlcH, and served the god of tills world ?

Then the Ijonl tlepartetl from us and left us in spirltufll tlearth and doubt und darknoss and distrcHS. Itwa^ not until wo repented in deep f-orrow and luniente<l after the l-ord that he de-livered us, and causwi us lo follow after him.

.lacfib 8i)ent such a night at Mahanim. Each thoughtful Christian can look back over i>ast dellveranei'S and devoutly set up his fttonoj of holiw, and Inscribe uiwn each, "Ebenezer'.' — " Hitherto tho l^rd hath hcliKxl mo."

AHBOt'IATIONAIi. . This history, it seems to tne, la not an unbeflt-

tliig tyite of tho history of this Association the hwt twoiity-flve years.

A brief rctrosjiect will not bo out of place hero. The Big Hatchle Association was orgimized at

liig Muddy church, in Haywood county, Tenn., Boptciiiber, 182.S, by eight churches, comprising a meml>crHhii» of five hundred and thirty, having Hvo ministers, not one of whom rei;nain.

Who of tho young ministers and members with us to day will live to celebrate the sccond Jubilee

the Cont(!nnial of thla -fVsflociatlon? Alaa 1 how few. Not one of us who now numl^er thlrty-tlve or forty ycais can hopo to bo spared. But young brethren, let not tho day forgotten, nor the fathers who aro hero to-day. , '

West Ten ncHseo fifty yeiusago waa considered a country, and but simrsely settled. The

churches woro far apart nnd reached, not as now by brUlgotI highways, but in many caacs by trails through unbroken forests and fordlesa streains. The siu'rlflci« and labors endured by our pioneer prcachers of this Association were severe beyond wliat we win realize. But tho liord wrought wltB' and by them mightily, nnd tho churches t rew und multiplied, and when we first knew it when it complotwi its first quarter of a century num-bered some four thousand,

It waa at thlu period that u doimrturo from tho *'oid paths" became apparent. The churches, through tho inlluonce of many of lier honored "prophets," Imd been seduced to acknowledge other religious denominations, and of course othor religions, as equally divine and Scriptural as their cwu, and to associate with them in their worahlp and to recognizo their ordinations and ordinanoM as valid.

At tills time alien imiiiotaioM" were generally received by this Association, In common with ths denomination at large, as valid, and more, rIqc* without a Scriptural baptism there can bo no Scriptural church. The sprinkUogs and pourings of alien denominations were recogtUscd before the world Rs Scrlptonil baptisms rceelvlng th«lr
