In publishing this story our object was to give the argument on Slavery, to discuss which is the main design of the author. We have, therefore, omitted the 2d chapter which was free of argument; but as in that chapter the Kev. Mr. Pratt makes his entree, we give this notice by way of explanation. Mr. Pratt is an abolition preacher fresh from Yankee land, recuperating his energies, at the expense of his church and congregation. To him Nellie turns over the discussion. Another character introduced in the second chapter is Mr. Morti mer, a wealthy young planter, between whom and Nellie springs up an acquaintance that premises to grow more and mors interesting. Southern Literary Messenger. We have received the January number of this periodical, which begins anew era in its history. Owned now by young and enterpri sing men who seem imbued with feelings of a proper ambi ion in regard to Southern litera ture, it promises to acquiro new Ufa and be come a worthy exponent of Southern literary taljjpt. If it does become such, and should not be sustained, we will blush for Southern hon or and Southern patriotism : we will indeed deserve the low opinion entertained of us by European nations. The South has talent enough to raise her high in the scale of litera ture, but that talent has neither been suffi ciently encouraged nor properly guided: let it be developed aud that spirit which has made our army au army of heroes, will make our literature worthy of the r gard of every na tion. Let the “Messenger,” therefore, be sus tained. Its proprietors say, We design the Messenger to be an enterprise worthy of the support of all classes of our people. We shall sum chiefly to secure for our pages the productions of the highest order of genius and scholarship, and at the same time such articles as will contribute to the instruc tion and amusement of the public at large. For the present the price of subscription will be Ten Dollars for twelve months, Six Dol lars for six months, if the order is received pre vious to March 1, 1564. After that date the subscription will be Twelve Dollars for twelve months, Eight Dollars for six months. This increase will not affect those who subscribe be for the Ist of March next. Orders must be accompanied with the cash.

But let us not de ceive ourselves. None ever yet entered into the kingdom of heaven without tribulation— not, perhaps, the tribulation ot fire, cross, or rebuke, or blasphemy; but the tribulation of a bowed spirit and an humble heart; of the flesh crucified to the spirit and of hard con flicts with'the power of darkness; and, there fore, if our religion he of such a pliable or elastic form as to have cost us neither pains to acquire, nor self-denial to preserve, nor efforts to advance, nor struggle-to maintain holy and undefiled, we may be assured our place among the ranks of the risen dead will be with that prodigious multitude who were pure in their own eyes, and yet were not washed from their filthiness.

There is nothing more striking, nor more in structive, nor more consoling, in old Testa ment history, than the interview between Abraham and the Almighty recorded in the 18th chab. of Genesis. The purpose of God was to destroy Sodom; for its cry, that is the cry of its sins, was very great. But Abraham was God’s near friend—the faithful servant—the covenant head of many nations; from him God could not hide his purpose of punitive justice. Moreover, lie knew Abraham, and that he would c Tnmand his children and his household after him ; and that by means of his righteous domestic government, all the generations of his seed would be blessed, and therefore, be could not withhold from him his intention to destroy that most ungodly city.— God communed with the Patriarch, as a man with his brother. llow He veiled the intoler able glories of his presence so as not to des troy Abraham, we need not enquire. It is sufficient for us to know, that the mighty God did in fact converse with the Father of the Faithful. Oh what gracious, kindly, sublime condescension ! He listens to Abraham’s sup plications, heeds his arguments, is not angry at even his protests, and does not terminate the interview, until he ceases to importune.— We cannot forbear, aside from the main oh ject of this article, to invite the attention of praying people, to the teaching of this last fact, and that is, that God turns not away, un til his servants cease to pray. There was in his near approach to his Maker, nothing of human arrogance in Abraham. It was the bolduess of holiness. It was freedom of ac cess to God, indulged, and allowed, because of a holy heart and a righteous life. His pray er was inspired by the Holy Ghost, and he re alized the inspiration. His reasonings and remonstrances, were in harmony with the Di vine ■will. God and Abraham were at one.— There was no sense of unacceptability in Abraham, and no repulsiveness in God. The righteous alone are bold. We may reassn with Jehovah, but not without love and faith and obedience, in kind if not in degree, like Abraham’s. But we turn to the argument of the inter ceding patriarch. His appeal is to the Justice of God, “Wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked ?” and again “that be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked, and that the right eous should be as the wicked—that be far from thee.” The question put,’ll an affirmation— Thou wilt not destroy the righteous with the wicked. The immutable justice of the eter nal God, will not permit him to deal with the innocent, as with the guilty. Aga’nhe pleads the rectitude of the Divine Administration— “ Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?” The creature assumes in the presence of the great Creator, that lie, Judge Supremeof all times and all events and all men, would do right. Farther, he assumes that in the ap plication of the principles of right and justice, the righteous would be protecteu—nay, that for their sake, the city'would be spared. Hit plea is in behalf of God’s own people—the righteous ; and in behalf of the sinful Sodom ites for the sake of that people and those righteous persons. Now mark—the justiceof each and all of these pleas are recognized by God. lie not only does not dissent to any one of them, but concedes the whole ground of Abraham’s intervention. “And the Lord said, if I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then will I spare all the place for their sakes.” Again he said “I will not destroy it for ten’s sake.” Ignorant, finite and sinful, the best men are sometimes overwhelmed with doubt when con templating the justice and rectitude of God’s earthly administration: not that they doubt about his doing right; but they do not know what the infinite mind, and unimpeachable justice of God, may consider right. Let them take courage, for here is a standard of human right, presented to the Almighty, and by him recognized. lie will not destroy the righteous with the wicked—he will not adjudge the in nocent to be rightfully punished on account of the guilty. To be guarded—we do not mean to say that the rule of right we speak of is of merely human origin, hut that whilst it emanates from God, it is one recognized by and familiar to human civil 1 zed States and rulers. And when we say that the righteous will not bo destroyed with and on account of the wicked, we do not mean to say that they are not called to suffer with them and on their account, but that the Almighty will forbear the destruction of a wicked city or Slate for the sake of the right eous that are in it. Sodcm would not have been destroyed, if there had been found ten righteous persons in it. Whelmed as it was in terrific ruin, Lot was saved. See how all the pleas of Abraham were affirmed by the sweet and tender words of God to Lot, “Haste thee, escape thither ; for I can not do any thing till thou be come thith er.” The righteousness cf Lot held back the avenging arm of God until hewas s#fe in the city of refuge. Strange, what power a good man has over The Omnipotent! Now, the Confederate States are not as wick ed as Sodom, yet their cry has gone up before THE PASTOR’S AID: THE CHRISTIAN’S GUIDE: THE SINNER'S FRIEND. MACON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY JANUARY 29, 1864. the Almighty, and our sins are indeed very grievous. We have been an arrogant people. In politics, in social life, in the pursuit of gain we have ignored the Providence of the Living God We have lived almost defiant ofllisau- ! thority. Looking around upon our lovely land —our free institutions—our profitable slaves, the delightful charity of our homes—our Aca demic Groves—our altars and our temples ; we have practically exclaimed, as did Nebu chadnezzar literally, “is notthi< great Baby lon, that I have built for the house of the King dom, by the might of my power and for the honor of my majesty?” No ! no ! the sins of the South have not reached that gigantic growth, which inhumed the cities of the plain in graves dug bv the lightnings of heaven; hut still they cover the land as with the blackness of darkness. War has developed the true moral Condit ion of the people—a condition before which re- ligion veils her face in mortification and shame. The churches are feeble, cold, inert aud secu larized. The God of this world commands the leyalty of the subjects of Christ’s Kingdom. Christianity regards not the chastisements of heaven. Sufferings induce no penitence— threatenings are not received as warnings— love is cold and faith is weak. The church drifts steadily in the direction of overthrow, and the world rushes madly towards remedi less iuin. We live in the midst of a carnival of the passions. Even reason has lost her sway, and men are thoughtless of their threatening doom. Are we threatened with the fate of Sodom ? No, not with a horrible tempest of brimstone and fire, but with one of two things, military occupation, or unconditionable subjugation, either of which, will be as destructive in apo litical, social and moral point of view, as was the tempest which beat upon Sodom, in a nat ural point of vievv. What will beourcondit- ion if within ninety days, our State is overrun by our worse than heathen enemies ? Our slaves will be free and left among us—a de based,vindictive and lawless horde ; our lands will be confiscated, our fields ravaged, our cottages and our palaces burned, our honor tarnished, our name a hissing and a by word among the nations, our Colleges dismantled, our Churches desecrated, our religion supplan ted by Northern Tims aniTTJerman infidelity, and our race, onr Soutborn race will be crush ed out, by a studied and steady policy of wrong and oppression. Does Providence intend all this? We think not. Why? Because he will preserve his church and people. Upon the authority of Ilis interview with Abraham we assert that He will not destroy the righteous with the wicked. By the teach ings of his own infallible Record we learn that the Judge of all the earth will do right. He will spare the land for the sake of the right eous that are in it. And are there not more than ter. righteous men in the Confederate’ States? Yes, gratefully we answer, by scores and hundreds. The lesson, then, for the*times is this, Inter cede, like Abraham, and for the sake of the righteous in our land, save the country from destruction. Baptist Affairs in Texas. We have beenjkindly furnished with several items of information respecting our brethren in Texas, communicated in a private letter to .a gentleman of this city. In August last, Rev. W. C. Crane, D. D., preached nearly three weeks to the Baptist church at Independence. Absut thirty per sons professed conversion, and were added to the church. There have been constantly ac cessions to the membership since that time, and during the sitting of the Conven ion, be tween fifty and sixty came forward for pray er, under the preaching of brethren J. A. Kim ball, J. W. D. Creath, S. G. O’Bryan and W. C. Crane. Rev. Michal Ross is the venerated and efficient pastor of this church,* and the church is a united, working, strong body. The Texas Baptist State Convention met at Independence, Saturday before the first Lord’s day in October. Rev. 11. L. Graves, of Fair field, was re-elected President; Prof. B. S. Fitzgerald, of Baylor University, Recording Secretary; and Gen. J. W. Baine, of Ander son, Treasurer. All the objects of the Con vention received proper attention. Over $13,- 000 were contributed to sustain missienaries in the army and in*destitute localities. Inter esting reports were presented and a deep in terest manifested for Baylor University, under the control of the Convention. The delega tion present was nearly twice as large as that of the previous year- The next session will be held in Huntsville, Walker county. Rev. W. C. Crane, D. D., late President of Mt. Lebanon University, La., declined a call to the pastoral care of the Baptist church at Houston, with a salary of SG,OOO per annum, to accept the Presidency of Bailor University, (located at Independence,) He was expected to enter on the duties of this office, January 1, 1864. The Female College of the University, Rev. 11. Clarke, Principle, was in a flourish ing condition, with 160 pupils. The Male De partment had over 60 pupils; students were constantly coming in, and a large increase was anticipated after the opening of the new year. Rev. John F. Ilillyer and B. S. Fitz gerald are now efficiently discharging the du ties of Professors.— Herald. Pen and Scissors. Dean Trench Archbishop or Dublin.— By the last arrival from England, we learn that Canon Stanley had declined the Arch bishopric of Dublin, and it had been tendered to Dean Trench, of Westminister, wkohas ac cepted. The dean is well and favorably known in this country by his writings. A writer in the Philadelphia Presbyterian says: “Sad and. wide spread experience dis closes the fact, that ‘sensation sermons,’ ‘po litieal sermons,’ ‘sermons on the war and on the crisis,’ and ‘sermons for the times,’ are multiplying upon us, taking the place es ser mons on ‘the unsearchable riches of Christ,’ and standing in the way of ‘Christ and Him crucified.’ ” Another writer in the same pa per, in articles on “the kind of preaching which is becoming sadly prevalent at the present time,” especially rebukes sermons “tainted by the carnal warfare.” Ia noticing Dr. Samson’s resignation of the pastoral office in Washington, himself wholly to the duties of the Presidency of Co lumbian College, the Washington correspon dent of a Massachusetts religious paper says: “His loyalty has long been of the doubtful sort. His sympathies with the rebels are very strong, and they often swerve him from the right path. Baltimore contains a good many such clergymen. But we have seme faithful Union clergymen here, though but two or three of them are sufficiently anti-slavery to suit a Northern man.” Says a correspondent of one of the religious journals: “You might as well expect a hos pital physician to prescribe for all the sick in a medical lecture, as a minister to apply soul remedies without the examination of his pa tients in postoral visitations. Each may dis cuss general principles, and point out the causes of diseases; but it requires examina tion to point out remedies to reach separate cases.” Some of the Northern Theological Semina ries are inaugurating the custom of employ ing special lecturers, not connected with the Faculty, on special subjects. For example, Lane Seminary announces, for the present Secretary Trent, of the American Board of Commiseioticis for Foreign Missions. The North Carolina Presbyterian states that at a meeting of the Fayetteville Presbytery, last month, Rev. B. F. MarabTfe, of Warsaw, Sampson county, “who has been a minister of the Baptist church for some, years,” was re ceived as a member of the Presbytery “after a careful and through examination.” Gould & Lincoln, Boston, have issued anew work, by Dr. Wayland—“ Letters on the Min istry,” in which he takes very decided ground against written sermons. A friend informs us that he heard the Dr. do the same thing, years ago in a sermon which was itself writ ten ! So says the Religious Herald, Rev. Dr. Armitage, of New York, at a pub lic meeting not long since, pledged “a million Baptisf hearts” to the principles of a certain anti-slavery address. The denomination has not a half million of members at the North. Spurgeon has preached in the church school room of St. Mary Bilston, in aid of a Baptist chapel, and an Episcopal clergyman has preached in his Tabernac e. Personal. Bro. S. G. Ilillyer is now settled near the Gum Pond church, Mitchell county, and has charge of that church, and teaches school.— What with teaching, preaching and farming he is likely to have a plenty to do. Rev. W. N. Chaudoin has resigned charge of the Gum Pond church and now labors al most altogether for the Pine Bluff church. Brethren D. W. Gwin and J. E. Carter have removed from Rome—the tormer to Griffin , and the latter to Forsyth, Ga., where they preach. The last presentment of the grand jury of Worth county contained the following: We cannot close without an expression of heart felt thanks to the Solicitor General, J. Branham, Esq., for his uniform politeness and attention to this body in furthering business ; and the state cannot have an abler counsel,and are satisfied her interests cannot suffer, man aged by his zeal and signal ability. In taking leave of his Hon. Judge Clarke, we cannot forbear to utter our sincere thanks, for his uniform politeness and kindness to this body, and the distinguished ability with which he has presided at this Court, and the country cannot have an abler master of her laws. Rev. T. J. Bowen passed through Macon, recently ; but be is the mere wreck of his for mer self. Occasionally he repairs to the in sane asylum for a while. Rev. T. E. Skinner who went to Europe from Baleigh, N. C., has arrived in England. He will purchase plates of the Bible for the S. S. B^ard. The receipt list was put in the prin ter’s hands too late to appear in this issue. He whs swims in sin will sink in sorrow For the Christian Index. My Past, Present and Future Opera tions. Montioello, Fla., Jan. 11, 1864. Bko. Boykin —Again have I crossed our State line and transferred my residence from Georgia to Florida for the third time, but like a prudent Confederate General, of whom I have heard, I have taken care to locate my headquarters in the interior, at a safe distance from the enemy. Like the aforesaid General, I shall occasionally (D. Y.J visit the camps on the coast. Should the enemy’s gunboats or army appear, I can but beat a retreat to my “headquarters,” ,as he is wont to do, that I may there issue my “orders,” or communica tions, without any tremor or apprehension for m y personal security. As missionaries are -nearly as scarce as brigadiers, should they not be equally careful to keep aloof from danger? I cannot say that I have always been as pru dent as the aforesaid General. On the 23d ult., the enemy’s gunboats approached with in 8 miles of the which I was labor ing. All th cavalry force in the camp and a part of the infantry, were called out to meet them. Our Brigadier bad been in the camp the day before, but on that memorable day, he was some 60 miles in the interior—doubtless engaged in official businesss. 1 do not inti mate that he was the one before referred to.— I remained until the troops returned and re ported that the 6nemy had crawfished away to avoid a conflict with our forcea. I then star ted homeward, and spent my Christmas on the highways. The church here is very small and appears, by some means or other, to have got very much in the back ground. It has not been for the want of able pastors. The last two that have preceeded me were talented young brethren, good speakers, and of unquestionable piety.— As youthful talents have not availed to build them up, the church decided to try the virtue of hoary years. They may have remembered the couplet in Waller, “The soul’s dark cottage, battered and decay- ed, Lets in new light thro’ chinks which time has made,” and may have hoped that some of this “new light” might be emitted through an aged pas tor ; or, ‘Wliioh h> more prohoMe, stray may have remembered the declaration of Paul, that “God hath chosen tlie weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty,” and hoped that the Lord would verify the truth of that declaration in the case of their new pastor. Be this as.it may, we greatly need, and earnestly solicit, an interest in the prayerc of G-d’s people. I stipulated, in my acceptance of the call from the church here, that I be allowed the privilege of laboring among the soldiers, in camp during the week, when my services are not actually required at home, in case the Lord should put it into the hearts of any of his peo ple to furnish me with the necessary means. My salary ($1,000) is liberal, considering the situation and circumstances of the church ; and, in a time of peace, might be sufficient for the support of my family ; but at the present high prices, it will barely pay for board, wash ing and lights! Meals in Florida, are furnish ed at the public eating houses for $3. On one of our Railroads, the Florida, (Yulee’s Road,) I have had to pay full fare and that at pres ent increased rates. Soldiers in camp have protested against my ceasing to visit them, as I told them I should probably have to do.;My heart yearns over them, and I have proposed to the>S. S. & Pub. Soc. of Richmond, Va., to continue my labors in the army in the week, if they would allow me's2o for each week thus spent. This proposition was made to them in consequence of learning that the Friendship Association had determined hereafter to em ploy members of its own body as army mission aries. The Richmond Board, through broth er Dickinson, has signified their acceptance of my proposition. I hope Georgia brethren will duly appreciate their liberality, and notsuffer them to lose pecuniarily by it. Any contri butions received from brethren in Georgia or Florida will be acknowledged through your columns, and duly credited to the Richmond Board.* Since my arrival here we have had, with enly a few hours intermission at a time, severely cold and very rainy weather. Col. Evans’ regiment, (Ga. Reg’t) passed through here last week. I visited the poor fellows as they were encamped at the depot, exposed to the pitiless pelting of rain, and distributed amongst them about 150 Soldiers’ Hymn Books, a large quantity of tracts, and about 18 or 20 second band Testaments, all of which were received very thankfully. One of the poor fellows who left here in the rain siok, died at No. 17 on the S. A. and G. R. R. The debt we owe our brave soldiers is indeed incal culably great. I have much more I would like to write, but my letter is already too long. Pardon the egetism of your correspondent this time. He will try and be less egotistical in future. J. S.

A young manofmy acquaintance, the other day, fired off a pistol thoughtlessly against a fence, in the back part of his father’s lot, with out any idea of doing harm. The ball passed through the fence, and the slight boarding of a carpenter’s shop beyond, and wounded tße owner, who was working there, very severely, shattering his leg so as to require its asiputa tion and endanger his life. Os course he is deprived for the present of his only means of supporting a dependent and helpless family, if not permanently incapacitated for his busi ness. This incident has suggested seme thoughts, which I will put down, if possibly they may interest and benefit others. 1. Sorrow for the consequences es what we do, does not remedy its evils. The young man was very sorry when he found what had hap pened ; said he would give a thousand dollars, if he had it, that the thing should not have occured; showed much sympathy for the wounded carpenter. But this did not alter the fact, did not mend the broken leg, did not comfort the distressed family, did not relieve his own feelings of self reproach. 2. “J didn’t mean to do it” —is a very com mon excuse, by every poor one. This youth meant to do no harm, but harm was done; — and his lack of ill intention,'while it ielieves the act of maliciousness, and so of the charac ter of a crime, punishable by law, neither re moves the results, nor excuses his careless ness. 3. Thoughtless acts, done without any object, are likely to do harm. They are seldom found to result in good. That is usually accomplish ed only by painstaking, purposely directed to some praiseworthy design. But few great re sults, and still fewer good ones, are attained by accident. Still, how true is it, that as to the main current and aim of life, most persons are living without an object!
