limity of its sentiments, with the vindication

his own deep pathos are we a l. when we read
the words wilh which the Earl of Chatham
stirred the Bn ish senate in defence, of his life
spent in public service, against the attacks ot
men who could not, or would not, appreciate
his motives; but not one of these signal pas
sages in the history of forensic eloquence is
equal to the chapter now before us, in which,
under the necessity of self-defence, the Apos le
to the Gentiles appeals to the principles and
* conduct of his disinterested and noble life.
He had been fal-ely accused by false men;
who, by misjudging his motives and degrading
his otiicial character, sought to impugn and
degrade Christianity itself; and the occasion
demanded that he should step forth from the
modest re ireoient, in which the conscious up
rightness ot his motives was left with God, and.
by au explanation of his own principles, vin
dicate the spirit of Chistianity as attacked in
bis person. Nor is that man to be envied, who
can read this record of self sacrificing benevo
lence, this devotion of oneself to hardship, and
solitude, and toil, for the good of others, with
out the generous glow of enthusiastic admira
tion.
In the one verse which I have selected for
tny text, we have, condensed into a few words,
the object of his life, and the means by which
be sought its attainment; which form of ex
pression may serve to furnish the method to
ba pursued in the following discourse: —
I. Ths oauroT asd KNoor his Lira: “ That
1 might Ay all means eave some.”
11. Tas MIASS BT WHICH HI SOUGHT TO
accomplish this objxcti “I am made all
things to ail mtn."
The object of the Apostle's life was the sal
vation of his fellow men. I: is plain that he
looked at the hitman race from a particular
point of view. He was convinced that they
were in danger; and his desire was to rescue
them.
There have been a great many ingenious re
presentations of human life. The world has
been described under a very great variety of
images. Old Pythagoras, when he was asked
wh it be thoughtof human life, compared it ro
the Olympe games, where some came to try
their fortune for the prizes; someas merchants
to exchange their commodities; some to make
good cheer and meet tneir friends; and others,
like himself, were simply lookers-on Epicte
tus, another of the old philosophers, in a very
striking paragraph, which has been confessedly
employed by Mrs. Birbauld as the foundation
of a very ingenious essay, compared the world
to a great mart of commerce, where fortune
exposes to our view many and various commo
dities. which we may procure by purchase or
barter. Others have painted life as a voyage—
the revolu ion of the seasons—a war—a race—
a school—and so on, through the whole range
of metaphorical i'lustration. Far different was
the view taken by the great Apostle To his
eye the worl i was a vast wreck, in danger of
being broken up by the waters of a destroying
deluge. Mankind were in imminent peril of
being drowned in perdition ; and he was run
ning from point to point making incredible
exertions, »/ all meant he might save some.
In the language employed by him at other
times, the image, but not the idea, is somewhat
varied. Instead of a driving wreck, the world
was as a house on fire, and its inmates in danger
of being consumed tn everlasting burnings.
He shouts to the sleepers; he wakes them out
of their slumbers; he rushes to the rescue
” pulling them nut of the fire.” that by all
means he might tare some It is evident that he
wa* thoroughly convinced of the fact that all
mankind are in dinger of eternal ruin. He
ch«*rir>hes no notion akin to the universal salva
tion of all his race. To him they do not ap
pear to be floating quietly and securely to
wards a stale of indiscriminate happiness The
sharp • y from his lips— If by all means I might
tave tune— implies what he felt as to ihc expo
sure of ail. lie was like the wrecker pacing
the shore, devising now this means, and now
tha’, if by all he might save a few out of the
■hip ju«t ready to founder.
Was this a just and correct view of the world I
Was it the fancy of a maddened brain, or the
vivid conception of truth and sobe; ness ?
Whence did the Apostle acquire these peculiar
■eniiments? Was he a misanthrope, soured
•nd moping? Was he a disappointed man,
taking revenge upon the world, by maledic
lion**, fur his hugest When he first comes to
our notice, a young man in h’gh favor and
popularity, a scholar trained in legal tactics, in
repute with the priesthood and the people, he
has none of those views of life which he subse
quently possessed. He is first introduced in
history ax a persecutor, more intent on cruel
■laughter than the salvation of his fellow-men.
But a change passes over the whole spirit and
tenor of bis life. Scales fall from his eyes,
and he is enlightened by the Spirit of God to
discern new things concerning himself and the
world. He feels that he is rescued from the
bonds of iniquity and from the jaws of hell. Is
he right in the judgment he now passes, that the
world heih in wickedness? Has he grown
suddenly less pitiful, and more moro e. than
when he was hauling men and women to pri
■on. compel'ing them to blaspheme the name
of Jesus Christ? lias his theology just
emerged from the cave, or descended in light
from the skier ? Here we are not left in doubt
The knowledge he had concerning God ami
bis Christ came down from heaven; and the
commission given to him at his conversion
was to “ go among the nations, to open their
eyes, and to turn them fr in darkness to light,
and I rum the power of Satan unto God, that
they may receive forgiveness of sins, and in
heritance among them who are sanctified bv
faith that is in Christ.” Here was his theology.
The race in their sins, and for siu forgiveness
through faith tn Christ, the Saviour. This is
Chrisiitu theology. This is its characteristic
distinction from all speculations of philoso
phy, ancient or modern. It furnishes relief
from an universal calamity. Whenever we
use the familiar words, Saviour or salvation,
we do. in fact, admit all that is declared con
cerning the lost condition of the human race.
Jesus Christ came to seek and to save that
which wm lost. Paul learned to view the
world as it was contemplated by his Lord and
Master. Nor did he view it as a Fatalist or as
a Stoic. He was touched by a more than mor
tal tenderness towards his fellow-men. His
heart a desire and prayer to God in their behalf
was, that they might be saved He who was
once ready to persecute unto blood, was fillet!
with the compassion of his Lord, and animated
with the hope us l iving, at least, some. This
now becomes the motive us his life. To be
hold men ready to perish, without relief, would
have tortured him to despair; but there was a
way of affording relief, and by the h pe of sue
cess was he impel let! to great exertions. No
matter in whose presence he stood, whether
the keeper of a jail, a soldier or guard, or a
governor. King or emperor, his .uppermost de
■ire was to save that man’s soul. Os himself
he wa< forgetful, as men always forget them
selves in the excitement of great endeavors for
others. “ 1 seek not yours, but you.” was
the explanation of all his peculiar intercourse
with men. To publish the Gospel was a ne
cessity laid upon him. *• Woe is me if I preach
•• ....... ...V ■ ■ ■ it
not lhe Giw|>el.” To preach the Goepel »ai
his choice He was impelled io it by the irre
sialib'e fervor of Christian love. O.liers might
prefer other pursuit*; one thing only remain
ed for him. Preferment in church or etale,
wealth, learning; all which he himself, in com
mon with others, had once counted as an ex
cellency, seemed unto him now a* the very
filth of lhe earth; and wore to be counted as
1 osa. save as they bore upon lhe accomplish
ment of his grand purpose—lhe salvation of
men. This is the key which explains the whole
of his speeches, bis travels, his seirdenials, his
remarkable life He was an insane man. and
nothing short of it, if there was not a reality
and a reasonableness in the motive which go
verned him. It was uot at Jerusalem only that
tnan were exposed to th* wrath of God: so he
tied, a* on angels* wings, to Arabia, to Ephesus,
to Athens, to Rome, to Spain, to announce the
news of a Saviour's mercy. The barbarian*
of Malta heard him; the Areopagttes listened
to him with solemn awe; the manners of the
stormy Adriatic were his auditors; those of
Cwsar’a household were told the tidings from
bis lips; well nigh every land and every city,
from Spain to Arabia had seen and heard this
extraordinary man, who by <// «<■«> » koped to
Ma* seise. A hero he was. a hero he meant to
be, but not as the world counts heroism. Might
he not. says he. in this chapter, have taken a
wife, if be hid chosen ’ Might he not have re
ceived support from those to whom he preach
ed I Was not this the law of God I But if he
chose to forego domestic ease, and the sup
port to which he was entitled, that he might
the better perforin his heart's desire, in saving
lost men, were his motives for this to be mis
understood and impugned ?
Do not suppose, dear brethren, that tnv pur
pose tn this is to pronounce a panegyric upon
the Apostle. I propose something far more
practical than an encomium upon his noble
Conduct.
He has himself announced, in our text, what
waathe one end and motive of hm life; l' o
save the souls of men. His whole life, a* we
have seen, subsequent to his conversion, was
co neideiil with this motive. If he was sane
and sober in this view of lhe world, and in his
course of conduct, there is every reason why
we should adopt and practise the same. No
great change has passed of a sudden, upon ibe
nature of man to render obsolete and inappro
priate the word* of Jesus Christ; Except a
min be born again, ba cannot see lhe kingdom
ot God And it lhe words ot the Apostle, tn
spired by die Spirit of God. are to be received
a* acorrect exponent of Chris.lanuv. then we
too ahea d look upon our fellow.,neu. as he
did. in danger of being lost; and w e too should
be touched by the tender compassions o'
Christ, and aiii-sa’ed by apostol cat fervor, it
by uif «aui we may Sara mu. Au oihef
pura ii's are to.bs ho d subordinate to this.
Not that they are to de abandoned lor the one
employment of preaching the Gospel; bu
that they are to be prosecuted in reference to
the same end and object which filled th* eye of
the Apostle. There is a value m those very
objects which aiacy pursue for selfish ends, be-
Mt——sa——bwbbhsct
yond all which concupiscence and ambition
ever dreamed. There is a value in trold and
silver, beyond all that the most eorbid miser
ever imagined, as he drops the shining ore into
his bags and boxes. There is a value in learie
ing and knowledge above all that was ever im
agined by anv one who, stimulated by lhe mere
ambition of excelling, has grown gray in mid
nightstudy. So of station, power, or it flu
ence of any kind; seeing that they may, and
ought to be applied to the grand purpose of
saving a lost world.
H. But it is time that we pass to the next d’-
vision of our subject, and consider the means
by which the Apostle sought to accomplish the
object which was his motive in life. He became
all things to all men
And here it will be necessary to make care
ful discrimination ; seeing that what Paul here
intended wa- instrumental in doing so great a
service; while the words chosen to convey his
meaning may be easily perverted, as indeed
they have been by many, who wrest them to
their own and other’s destruction- Happily
the discrimination i< very easily made. What
lhe Ap >stle actually intended is best under
stood from his own words. '• For though Ibe
free from all men, yet have I made mysell ser
vant unto all, that 1 might gain the more. And
unto the Jews 1 became as a Jew, that I might
gain the Jews; to them that are under the law.
is under the law, that I might gain them that
are under the law; to them that are without
law. as without law. (being not without law to
God but under the law to Christ,) that I might
gain them that are withonfjaw. To the weak
became 1 as weak, that I might gain the weak
I am made all things to all men, that I might by
ill means save some. And this Ido for the
Gospel’s sake, that I might he partaker there
of with you.”—(Ver. lb— 23 )
if there be a character iW ail the wot Id which
merits our uumiiigated scorn and detestation it
is that of a man who, on subjects, will
trim and truckle in conformity with the com
pany into which he happeifttobe thrown;
who, in one position will give up his opinions,
if he has any to suit one class of people, and in
another circle will the very same, and
that most strenuously others. Now.it
:s almost derogatory character of the
noble hearted .Apostle to the Gentiles even to
say. that his spirit and conduct bore no resem
blance to such a mean and fawning sycophancy.
Noris there anything here in conformity with
the doctrine of modern Jesuitism, that '‘the
end justifies the means;” that because the ob
ject to be attained, to wit, the salvation of men.
was benevolent and of all things important,
therefore it was lawful and proper to use ail
kinds of means to bring it about, even duplici
ty, fraud, and dishonesty. How strange the sole
cism! Nor do we mean that the Apostle had
no opinions, no principles of his own, to
which he attached importance, and which he
felt himself bound to defend. All such ass oci
ations with the conduct of this sincere, upright,
and earnest man, do injustice to his language,
his life, and his sacred lame.
Opinions he had; preferences he had; a de
finite creed and theology he bad; opinionsand
faith, than which tie would rather have surren
dered his life While this was so in reference
to vital truths, other matters there were which
were perfectly indifferent —indifferent to him,
though not to others. The Jew held to opin
ions and practices to which he attached great
importance, but which Paul had learned to re
gard as altogether trivial and unimportant
He, Paul, was not under the law of ritual ob
servances; he had experienced a better thing
than that, even Christianity. Christ had liber
ated him from that punctilious adherence ic
rites and lalierw. which was no better than aer-
n»es and letters, wnicn was no Better man ser
vile. But freeman though he was, if he might
the better secure the confidence and affection
of the Jew, so as to save his soul, he would
conform to Jewish customs and preferences,
so far as he might without the compromise of
principle. He was willing to make himself a
servant to all, that he might gain the more.
Just as a slave submits to all th« whims and ca
prices of his master, unwarrantable though
they be, so Paul, with Christian magnanimity,
says that he was accustomed to forego his own
opinions and preferences, and accommodate
hitneelf to the preference and prejudice of oth
ers, so far as could be done with a good con
• science, that he might gain them to Christ. So
again, when laboring among the Gentiles—
described by him as those who were “ without
law,” that is, being uninformed concerning the
rites and ceremonies enjoined in the law of
Moses—he tells them that they were perfectly
right in omitting rnanv things which were prac
tised by the Jew. He does not insist upon
circumcision; indeed he absolves them from
it, declaring th it the obligations to observe
that, and other kindred rites, have been done
away in Christ; they were no more binding as
matters of authority or necessity at all, eyen
though he himself, when among the Jews,'had
conciliated them by practising what was their
preference, but to him a matter of indifference.
Thus his consistency is made out —and more
than consistency—a noble magnanimity; asupe
rioricy above all personal preferences and pre
judices, snd that lor others’ good. When he
was at Lystra, he took Ti noineus and circum
cised him. He was among the Jews who re
garded the rite as essential. He had been
taught to believe that now it was nothing. Cir
cumcision or uncircumcision. it was nothing,
if we were in Christ Howbeit, if the Jews
could be conciliated and won to Christ, by what
was “ nothing” to him, happy was he to meet
their wishes; telling them at the same time,
th it he did not attach the same importance 10
the rite with themselves. He gives up himself
to be a servant to Jewish whims, caprices, and
prejudices; but, observe, it is upon points
which he pronounces to be indifferent He
would prefer that they should see things as he
did; and should do as be did; but as they
could not see him with his eyes, and adopt all
nis sentiments, he will cheerfully relinquish his
own preferences to their advantage In this,
how careful was ho to violate no obligation,
bend no principle, break no law, offend no
truth. He himself has interpreted in this pa
reii'hesH the declaration that all this pliant
conformity was not as though he was without
law to God; for 4 ‘under law to Christ” he
was; so that though he was flexible as a wil
low wand in his elastic and cheerful conformi
ty to all the preferences and prejudices of Jew
or Gentile, in things indifferent, he was ready
to go to the cross in defence and testimony of
those vital truths by which God was to be
honored, and the world could alone be saved
Understood in this sense, the conduct of the
Apostle presents a rule of conduct of incalcu
lable service to all who would seek to gain
their fellow-men to Christ. If this motive tu
save men. be tir«l in the mind ; if it be distinct,
intense, and earnest, it will vindicate the con
duct from all those inconsistencies and mean
nesses which make up a selfish sycophancy
Christian pliancy, and unchristian conformity,
are distinguished 111 two respects : as to what
is surrendered, and the motive by which any
thing is surrendered. The selfish parasite slit
ters and yields, cringes and surrenders, that he
may ingratiate himself, and obtain hit own pur
poses. The Christian yields and conforms
when he can, that he may save others The
one hopes to exalt himself, secure his own ends,
and rise in favor with all. The other, forget
ful of himself, gives up all he can, (hat he may
win souls to Christ. The one surrenders eve
rything. trifles with matters the most sacred
counting no price too great to be paid for hi«
ambitious ends ; willing to sell his soul and Sa
viour. The other, steadfast and unshaken in
vital truth, displays a magnanimous indiffer
ence iu ail things immaterial and unimportant.
Bunyan has sketched the portrait of the one
in Mr. By-Ends, in hues so bold and strung,
hat no one who has ever seen the lace will
ever forget it. Hu came from the town of
Fair-Speech, and pretended to be on the wav

bly well-bred that she knew how to carry it to
all, even to prince and peasant. Here was a
man who, in bis own words, ‘•jumped in Ins
judgment with the present wav of the times;”
whose rule of life whs ‘ never to strike against
wind and tide; but seek to please everybody,
for his own advantage.” The portrait, we
fear, does not belong to an old gallery. It is a
lifelike representation ofthat Worldly conform
ity wh.ch is practised iu all times and places
— —r"
for one s private ®nJ«. Here it is. and thus it
is. that ma 1/ pervert this rule of apostolical

when you can consistently, innocently, if your
motive be, as with tne Apostle, to save the
soul But beware that you do not take fire in
to your bosom to be burned, rather than hold
out a lamp to enlighten others in the way of
lite. If your motive be not like the .Apostle’s,
your conduct wilt not be as his. It yon be

pleased with you by seeing what a high-mind

are, the whole pr< cess is vitiated by n bad mo
tive. which leads you to dishonor religion de
ny Christ, and instead of saving, delude and
mislead, by your inconsistency, many to des
truction. There is a vast difference between
the Apostle Paul and Cardinal Wolsey.
Another thing is implied in this rule of con
duct we are now considering. There is n
great variety of means to be employed for the
salvation of ditferenl men. I do not mean
that there is more than one Gospel, or any
second way ol entering lhe kingdom of God.
But the aspects oftrutnare indefinitely varied :
the one ft* eat truth by which we are saved is
not to be confined to one fixed and changeless
form of expression; and it spreads itseif out
in conformity to the capacity and accomplish
ment of lhe mind iiro which it enters. If it
w ere not so, wo might as wall have automata

What is an excellent rule in all forms of con
vincing and persuasive speech, at the bar, be

with the Jew, sought to save the Jew. He
turned again to the Gentile, educated under
different customs, familiar with a different
philosophy, and forthwith he who determiued
to know nothing but Christ and Him crucified,
adroitly conforms his style of address, his
mode of approach, to his new auditors. He
would have been insane had he done other
wise. He would have frustrated his own ob
ject by a different procedure.
It would be a pleasant rhetorical exercise,
suited better to another place, to analyze the
several discourses of Paul, as recorded in the
book of the Acts, and show how skillfully he
varies himself so as to conform to his several
auditors. Contrast his speech or sermon in
Pisidia, in the synagogue of Antioch, with his
address before the Areopagites, the highest
court at Athene. In the one he becomes a
Jew, thinks like a Jew, speaks like a Jew ; he
descants on Jewish history, out of which histo
ry he brings forth the Saviour. At Athens he
encounters lhe Epicureans and lhe Stoics.
No stranger is he lo their prejudices and their
philosophies. With what inimitable grace
and self-possession, a master of himself and
his subject, does he set off in his address. The
very sty ?e of his Greek is classical. He quotes
their own Greek pagan poets. Verily the
Christian Jew is transformed into a polished
Grecian debater, and why should he not be,
seeing that he would save some at Athens
too?
Listen to him again, when, standing on tho
stairs of the temple, he speaks in the Hebrew
tongue to the Jews; relating his conversion,
and subsequently repeating the same narration
in a verv different form and style before Agrip
pa, the Roman governor. With the weak he
became weak; forcing his large mind down
into sympa hy with all their weak and narrow
prejudices, for the weak he would save. With
lhe mighty and the noble, the wise and the
great, though he had a theme which he knew
would be unwelcome to their hearts, the more
did he raise himself upto their level, that he
might command a hearing and a respect.
Among the tent-makers of Corinth, he became
a tent-maker; talked in their language, sympa
thized in their pursuits, that they might be
saved. Because the Gospel detects prejudice,
it is a.sad mistake to infer that it was designed
to excite and provoke prejudice When our
Lord told his disciples that the effect of bis gos
, pel would be to send swords rather than peace
among the relationships of life, he spoke of »n
effect incidental and not designed. He also
ins meted his disciples to be wise as serpents,
and harmless as doves; and that man has not
j yet learned the first lesson of nature or grace
. who hopes to save lhe souls of any in his fami
. ly. neigborhood, or walks of usefulness, with
] out considering the age, circumstances, ed
, ucation, and characters of those whom he seeks
j to approach and address.
A young minister just entering upon his
profession in a rural district, was informed
’ that a certain farmer in his parish was violent
ly prejudiced against him as a “ proud and
college-bred ” man He resolved lo pay him
I an early visit. The man was in the fields
mowing the clover, in the midst of his men.
. The minister, wisely avoiding untimely inter
, ruption, resorted to lhe meadow, while the
dew was yet sparkling on the grass, and re
. questing the loan of a scythe, led on the work,
r as if it had been the pleasant pastime of his
youth. Prejudice was disarmed, and melted
into partiality and confidence, and subsequent
ly, Christian conversion. To the farmer he
had become a farmer, that he might save the
farmer. Precisely what Paul did on Mars
Hill, when he quoted to his classic audience
from Cleanthus’ Ode to Jupiier, and “ Diony
■
siu-the Areopagite clave unco him and believ
j ed ” If you would save a child, you must be-
I come a child. How absurd to give a babe
strong meat; or feed Christ’s little lambs in
p racks so high that nothing but a giraffe can
L reach them.
A man who has an object to accomplish, de
vises all expedients, invents and tries now this,
, now that. What is most admirably adapted to
one, may be repulsion and effervescence to an
’ other. Os the art of doing good we should be
, studious; and the means are many. We could
not, in conscience eulogize the poetry of
John Bunyan as the best versification in our
, language. It is nnt quite so smooth and poli
shed as that of Pope; nor does its measure
t equal tiie glorious majesty of Milion Yet we
might search far and long before we found
I belter sense or sagcr advice, than the follow
ing lines in his rhyming apjlogy for the Pil
grim’s Progress :
1 ” You see the way the fisherman doth take
, To catch the fish ; what engines doth he make ?
, Behold how he engjgeth all his wits ;
' t Also his snairs, lines, angles, hook, and nets.
Yet fish there be that neither hook, nor line,
Nor srure, nor net, nor engine can nuke thine—
They must be groped for, and be tickled too,
Or 1 hey will not bj catch’d wbate’er you do,”
God be thanked that we have the Dreamer’s
Allegory, as well as Butler’s Analogy. Give
children their medicine, if you must, in their
milk. Many a man has found Jesus Christ in
the Tinker’s Dream—the second uninspired
book in our language for genius, wit, and
wonder—who would have found nothing but
' verjuice, spleen, and prejudice, as Boling
broke did in the forced reading of Dr. Man
ton’s one hundred and nineteen sermons on
the one hundred and nineteenth Psalm.
, While it is true that an incidental activity of
t opposition is a'more hopeful sign in the recov
ery of the soul, than downright insensibility,
’ just as spasms and acute pain are belter than
p paralysis and coma, yet no man has a right to
. provoke hostility, and excite prejudice of set
tled purpose and plan We have no right to
‘ heap up stumbling-block-, ; rather should we
remove them, lest that which is lame be turned
out of the way. It is an ingenious art of the
! devil to pu»h a man on in an opinionated,
self-willed, cast iron,imprudent and,headstrong
way, and then misname this Christian fidelity.
Belter is it to bo studious of o< cations. Speak
a word in season. Be fruitful in expedients.
Be expert in means, that by all you may save
some. If the desire and motive at the heart
be right, the means will not be wanting. Now
it will be an interview on purpose; now an
incidental word; now a voice of consolation in
an hour of aiflic ion ; and now the loan of a book,
or the mission of a letter. IVatch for souls ;so
fowlers seek their prey, and good agencies
must countenance the bad.
In short, an active desire to save men makes
us catholic and prudent. And by being catho
lic. in this connection, is not meant a blind,
unthinking charity, which dissolves away into
vapory nothingness; and by prudence we in
tend something very different from that which
the world designates by the word, in whose
no-nr nela'ure it passes for an adroit avoidance
of all offence to our own injury. When we
say that the desire and endeavor to save lost
men makes us catholic and prudent, we mean
ju»t what is implied in the conduct of the
Apostle as here exhibited; a carelas-nessabout
all unimportant differences, provided that the
main thing may be gained; and the seeking of
the best ends by the best means.
We must now add, and that emphatically,
that there is Lulehope of hitting this line of dis
crimination, unless the heart is first possessed of
the right view of man's lost condition, and
prompted by the irrepressible desire to secure
bis salvation, if this be wanting, one is as
sure to tall into worldly conformity as waters to
flow downward
If you would learn to please.
Do what others do with ease,
is the compendious direction of worldly and
fashionable life : and this that the world may be
pirated with you. Jesus Christ has said 10 all
His disciples, Be not conformed to this world
—in the sense of being converted over to the
world—but seek, by all means, to convert the
world over to Christ. Be consistent. Be
m inly. Be earnest. Yield whit you may,
when yielding will save, Be firm as a rock
where you must, that thereby you may gain
the more.
11 our hearts were only burning whith love
Tor Christ, and the souls He has died to save,
we should not need so many discriminations;
nor should we be left to wander and sink in
the bogs and swamps of doubt'til and debata
ble questions, which make up so much of the
’opposed natural space between Christian
•uri’istency and worldly conformity.
M iy the Spirit of all grace and life enlighten
our eyes, and move nur hearts to a just appre
hension of human guilt and peril, and to all
forms and expressions of fidelity, that by all
means we may save some !

The Pills are principally an alterative medicine—
(their basis being lhe solid extract of the Sarsaparilla,

weak and enfeebled persons; invigorating and
strengthening the body, purifying lhe system, pre

RICHMOND SUPERIOR COURT;
JONE TBl’.M, 1850.
The Grand Jury for the flrat week,
make the following
PRESENTMENTS:
We have examined the books of lhe Clerks of the
Superior and Inferior Courts, and of the Court of
Ordinary, and fin I the records well and neatly kept,
in well bound books, and tho business of those offi
ces appear to be we:l attended to.
We find that the following persons are the only
licensed retailers of spirituous liquors is tnis county,
as appears from lhe report of the Cleric of the Inferior
Court :
Jason Witkins, Watkinsville.
Nich. Sin id t, Savannah Road.
A. Shaw, do. do.
J. Banks, Conner’s, on Louisville Road.
J. Graves, on Savannah Road.
J. Livingston, do. do.
Lewis Wimberly, on Milledgeville Road.
We present, as a grievance, the neglect on the
part of the Magistrates in this county, in enforcing the
patrol law.
We find the Coun'y Jail kept in good order, and
the prisoners state that the treatment of the Jailor to
them, is at all times kind and humane. Much
praise is due to Mr. John W. H-ard for the excel
lent manner in which he keeps the Jail.
The Jury report the following Roads and Bridges
as being in bad order, and requiring immediate at
tention by the proper authorities. The Savannah
Road from Butler’s to Spirit Creek, and the Bridges
thereon ; the Murray Road ; Dean’s Bridge, and
lhe Wrightsboro’ or Carnesville Road ; lhe Swamp
Road, South-East corner of the city; also, the Road
from the city, passing through the village of Sum
merville, as being almost totally neglected.
The Jury are authorized to state that lhe law re
quiring colored preachers or exporters to obtain per
mission from the Justices of the Inferior Court before
they are privileged to preach or exhort, is not com
plied with—as there is not, at this time, any colored
preacher or exhorter, in this county, who is privi
leged by law to officiate in either capacity. The
same opinion rnay be expressed in regard to the city
i of Augusta. We solicit the attention of the consti
i tuted authorities to these matters.
We present, as a nuisance, the business card of
[ Gray Brothers, in the character of SIOO notes. The
circulation of such species of cards is calculated, in
some cases, to deceive the ignorant and unwary.
The Jury likewise call the attention of the proper
tribunal to the manner in which slaves and free per
’ sons of color are permitted on Sundays to drive car-
J riages, buggies, and other vehicles throughout the
city and county, and recommend a rigid enforcement,
J in this city, of the 22d section of the general ordi-
I nances, and solicit the co-operation of the Magistrates,
Constables and Patrols of the sounty to abate this
j nuisance.
j The Grand Jury present, as a grievance, in this
j county, the number of negro mechanics, who, in the
names of their masters and guardians, contract for
work, thus evading and virtually violating lhe law of
the State prohibiting colored mechanics from conlract
-3 ing for, erecting or repairing buildings, to the great
' injury of white mechanics employed among us.
, We invite the attention of the officers of the pro
s per Court to a revision of the Grand Jury list, as we
j have good reasons to believe that there are many per
. sons whose names are not now upon the list, who are
. entitled ti positions on the pannel.
5 We solicit the atten ion of the Court to lhe penal
-9 ties for the non- tendance of Jurors.
' For many years past but a small sum has been
' collected fa out this source. An e forcement of the
nonnltip.a is at IphkL in inwriro tn hnco ni>ronn«
penalties is due, at least in justice to hose persons
who are prompt in attendance to the call of the Court.
The Grand Jury return their thanks 10 their Ho
-5 nors Judges Johnson and Starnes, and the officers of
1 the Court generally, for their courtesy extended to
1 this body during the present week.

CHARLESTON June 14.— Colton.— It is sel
dom that we have seen buyers evince auch apathy
towards this article, as was manifested throughoat
the whole of the preceding week. Concessions were
made from time to time, in order to induce them to
operate, which they did, only to a moderate extent,
ind when the week closed, prices had suffered a re
duction of | to }c., triaging 4 middling fair quality,
which bad previously ruled at 12}c., down to 11} a
life. Since that period, however, quite a change
has come over the market, in consequence of the re
ceipt of favorable advices from the other side, and the
week under review presents a rriking contrast of
the one that preceded it—the market having been as
buoyant as it was then depressed—and it has, to say
the least, tally recovered its former position. A mo
derately fair demand prevailed on Friday and Satur
day List, and during these two days upwards of
2500 bales changed h nds, atabout the prices corres
ponding with those current to the time we made up
our Grmer report; if, however, there was any change,
it was in favor of sellers, who, it was thought, ob
tained better terms on the latter day, for the higher
classifications of Cotton. On Monday the demand
was ra her active than otherwise, which resulted in
the sde ot * rae 2500 bales, and there was a decided
change in favor oi holders. Prices were fun her
strengthened on Tuesday, owing to the favorable
accounts received by the steamer Atlantic. During
t~ e day about 2000 bales were sold, and at th?
of business an advance of fully }c., was es-'abli.-hed
in prices. The market was very qu ; et in the early
part of the forenoon of Wedneauay, but as the day
advanced the demand improved, and holders, taking
advamag of this circumstance, asked and obtained
even higher rates than previously paid —sales
2500 bales. Yesterday the market was very quiet,
as purchasers were not willing to operate t the
stringent terms demanded by factors, who had gen
erally been influenced to this step by the tenor of the
advices by the Canada, which are at hand, and the
transactions were l.mtted to3oohales The market

Sandlakb, June 30, 1848.
Mr. Smith: Dear Sir—\ new using one of
your improved Smut Machines in my mill of two run
of stones; I have used it about ten months; I air
satisfitHi that it surpasses all other machines in uee.
The improvement of the scroll is important: I run
through my machine wheat, rye. barley and buck
wheat; it docs not mix grain from one grist to the
other. It cleans to our entire >atislaction all kinds 01
grain, wet or dry, and as regards power, 1 can scarce
ly perceive the least variation of my mill in putting
on your Smutler; I have been told that your Smut
ter took more power than some others; it is a mis
take; I never run one that took so little power to do
the same work. 1 am bound to say that it is a grand
smutter, and on a fair trial 00 miller would be with
out one. ISAAC WHEELER.

Attempt to Convert the Pope.— The
correspondent of the Daily News, writing
from Rome on the 2d nit., gives the following
singular account of an interview b etween a
Protestant clergyman and the Popes
“Ono of the most interesting oocurranc of last
week was the interview of the Ker. Dr. Townsend,
canon of Durham, with the Pope. I mention* din a
previous letter that the Rev. Doctor’s object was to
endeavor io induce his Holiness to do away wit the
bickerings, animosities, and polemical discords w'l ;ch
keep the various denominations of Christians sepa
rate and at enmity, and, by calling a general coun
cil, to establish the basis of an universal creed. It
was certainly a bold attempt for a Protestant clergy
man to convert the Pope himself, but the Doctor was
resolved to beard the lion in his den, and on Friday
last he went to the encounter in full-dress canonicals.
After having knelt to kiss the Pope’s hand, Dr.
Townsend was invited by his Holiness to take a
chair, and an animated conversation commenced tn
Latin, a fit language for a controversy, and one in
which the disputants might be presumed to be a
match for each other.
The Pope was upon the whole very tolerant, as
may be imagined from his having not only listened
with calmness to Dr. Townsend’s arguments in favor
of releasing the Catholic clergy from their vow of
celibacy, but also assured him that he entertained se
rious ideas of adopting such a plan in the early part
of his reign, especially after having received pressing
letters upon the subject from Germany, but that tn
the present state of Italy, and indeed of the whole
continent, any innovation on his part would be dan
gerous, even if he had the power load freely, which
he hadnoi, being by no means the free agent that he
was on his first accession to the throne. The same
objection would prevent him from calling a general
council, or attempting to unite the great and divided
family of Christians, nllhough he fully admitted the
grandeur of the scheme, protested his own desire for
peace and harmony, and wept at Dr. Townsend’s
enthusiastic picture of England recognizing in Pio
Nono the head of a universal church. After three
quarters of an hour’s discussion, the Rev. Canon took
his leave, placing in the hands of his Holiness a do
ll merit containing the principal heads of his argu
ment, which appears to have made some impression
on the Pontiff’s mind, judging from the fact of his
having sent to the Doctor’s residence, on Sunday last,
only two days after the interview, requesting to be
made acquainted with the period of Dr. Townsend s
return (he has just gone to Naples,) as he should then
like to have some more conversation with him.”
The Emperor of China died on the 25th of
February. He is succeeded by his fourth son,
the eldest survivor, a youth nineteen years old,
who will reign under the title of Szehing. It is
said that this change will be of advantage to
English interests, by bringing Keying into a
more influential position. The Overland Reg
ister remarks in anticipation, that the legali
zation of the sale of opium, both as a source
of revenue in helping the new government
through its formidable financial difficulties, and
towards settling a long vexed and dangerous
question, will probably be one of the first
measures submitted to the new sovereign.
Another incident mentioned, is the capture
of three piratical vessels by her Majer-ty’s
steamer Reynard, on the23d inst. It occurred
at the entrat ce of the bay, and within sight of
the western point of the city of Victoria.
Three junks’ and fourteen prisoners were
brought in.
Two trading steamers, one English the oth
er American, have been prohibited from car
rying cargo into Canton river. This h looked
upon by the representatives of both powers as
a breach of treaty on the part of the Chinese
authorities, and pending the settlement of the
question the two steamers are lying on demur
rage.— Cuur. 3f Enq.

IMPROVED COTTON GINS.
OWING to the almost unparalleled satisfaction
which their GINS have given, particularly
those of last year, the subscribers are induced to cull
the attention of the planters of Georgia, Alabama and
South Carolina to their
FACTORY IN NEWTON COUNTY,
and request a continuance of their patronage. No
better guarantee us the excellence of their Gins is
needed than their wide circulation, and the expressed
satisfaction of some of the most experienced and ex
tensive planters and Cotton buyers of Georgia. As
to the workmanship, material and performance of
their Gins, they are willing to back many of their
purchasers in saying that there are none superior in
the United States.
Their Gins are on the improved plan, possessing
several essential improvements this year over those
of the last season. Every exertion is made by expe
rienced and skillful mechanics to render them conve
nient and durable. Their travelling agents, who will
be constantly passing through the various sections ol
the country, are authorized to sell on the most accom
modating terms.
The Gins will be delivered at the purchaser’s resi
dence free of charge, and its performance warranted,
if the directions which accompany each Gin are fol
lowed.
All orders directed to the subscribers at Cov
ington, Ga., will be promptly attended to

IMPROVED COTTON GINS
AND PATENT THRESHING MACHINES.
Til E SUBSCIHBER would inform the Plant
ers of Georgia, that he continues to manufac
ture COTTON GINS on his improved plan, at his
Factory in Morgan county. His Gins are well known
and universally approved throughout Georgia, and a
portion ol South Carolina. They are made of the best
materials, and no expense will be spared to make
them durable and convenient. The very large sales
lie has made for th** last few years is sufficient gua
rantee of the excellence of his work. His Gins will
be sold on the most liberal terms, and delivered at the
purchasers’ residence, and warranted to perform well,
il used according to directions.
He is also manufacturing
PATENT THRESHING MACHINES,
.m a plan entirely new in the Southern country, and
far superior to any now in use; they will do about
three times the work of the common Thresher, and
iircsh the straw much cleaner. They are run with
common Gin Gearing, or with horse power, for
threshing in the field. With good attention, they will
hresh 20 bushels of Wheat or 25 bushels ol Oats per
tr?ur, and are not subject to get out of repair. Con
tracts may be made with my travelling or local Agents
for my Gins or Threshers, or by ordering them direct
from me. JOSEPH WINSHIP.

OGLEBY’S COTTON GINS.
STILL IMPROVING:
WE STILL CONTINUE to manufature
Cotton Gins of the very finest order. For sev
eral years past we have been able to sell all the fine
Friction Roller Gins at $3 per saw, which we canid
make, without the aid ol a travelling agent. H e
have made the gins, and lhe gins, or rather the cot
ton ginned by them, have sold others as last as we
could make them. We have not been content in be
ing able to sell, but it has been our aim to continue to
improve. Each year the demand has increased, and
is our fine gins have been used, we think we can af
firm the planter has realized increased profits. Il
uas been truly said that the finest article ol cotton
ever offered in the Savannah market has been raised
Hancock county. The crops of several individ
uals taa*e been ceteemed ot this character. Some
have hud offers for their < nt re crop, to be groicn, at
he highest prices, and it, e<ery instance our gins
have been used to produce tins tine article. W ben
cotton is low | cent, per lb. in price tells in a moderate
crop. We think we can sakiy affirm that in every
instances where plantershave managed their crops
neatly and ginned on our gins, they have received
the very highest market value—in many instances |
cent, over the highest market price.
k has been said Dy some persons, interested in
‘ssening the character of our gms, that they do not
jtand as high in Hancock county as they have done.
\Vesaould think this a great mistake, trout the tact
>f an increased demand in the county. We know
uany opposed buying at first on account of the price,
but we are assured from the increased safe and from
gratuitous commendations of our gins, that the far
mers are beginning to view it good economy to buy of
its. We are also seldom able to sell a common gin,
which we make as low as other gin-makers. Uui
iast year’s gins have given even greater satisfaction
'.han any we have ever made before. We will deliver
:o purchasers, al $3 per saw, our line F'riction-Ruller
Gios ; or common kind from 82 to $2.50, as in qua [
ity. All communications will be immediately an

A SAFE and certain cure for Consumption of

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
The Louisville Journal says: “ Dr. Rogers’s LIV
ER WORT and TAR not only g’ves immediate re
lief in Coughs and Colds, but from the testimouy of
men of the highest standing here and elsewhere, it
is making some very remarkable cures of Consump
tion ”
The Railway Register adds : “We have beard it
stated, by persons of great respectability, who have
used this medicine, that it is one of the most, remark
able medicines of the age, for Coughs, Colds, Influ
enza, Bronchitis, Asthma, Pain in the Side and
Breast. Spitting of Blood, Whooping Cough, and all
Lung Complaints, which, if neglected, usually ter
minate in Consumption; and the certificates attached
to the a vertisements would seem fully to justify this
statement.”
LIVERWORT.
Plant has, for many years, been found to be
of singular virtue in the cure of Affections of the
Liver. More recently it was ascertained that il pos
sessed great power in arresting bleeding at the Lungs,
Coughs of a chronic character, etc., and ol essential
service in all diseases of a pulmonary character.
TAR.
This article is now universally acknowledged to
be the most healing and efficient application lor dis
eased or decaying lungs, or any portion ol the fleshy
or muscular parts of the human body. Its merli
cinal and preservative qualities were understood by
the Egyptians in the early ages of the world, and
no doubt now exists among scientific men, that the
preparation used in the embalmment of bodies, was
composed principally of this ingredient, in later
ages, it was ound to be in universal uie among the
aborigines of America, and at this day it is their priiw
cipal, and, in fact, only medicine for an unsound state
of tbe Lungs, or any approach toil. Those who are
acquainted with the history of this hard, race of
men, know that a death from Consumption is un
known among them I The medical faculty in all
countries appear to have become aware ol tbe great
healing properties of this article, and are now Intro
ducing it in their practice. Dr. Buchan, of England;
Dr. Crichton, ol St. Petersburg; Dr. La Prieure,
