The Baptist Missions.
The Macedonian for October contains late intelli
gence from moat of their foreign raiaalona. The re
ceipts for the month up to the lat of September were
$3,185, and tho total from the 1st of April to that
date was $18,744. We select tho following :—
German .—The Iler. Dr. Oncken, now in tho
United States, has received a letter from a mission
ary laboring in the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg. Ho
writes that the position of tho Baptist churches in tho
Grand Duchy baa undergone a- moat happy change.
Formerly when thorite of baptism was performed,
tbo assembly were often pursued by policemen and a
mob, and they bad to fly in every direction tosavo
themselves from violence. Now thoy ore permitted
to enjoy perfect cmletncss and peace. Tho pastor of
the ohurch at Halsbeck was a abort time ago at Old
enburg, when be called on sovcral distinguished per
sona in authority, with whom ho conversed. He had
aUo bad an Interview with the grand duke, who gave
him a gracious reception, and who spoke of us in a
loving and encouraging manner. Oue of the minis
ters of state also expressed himself in a friendly way,
and stated that there was no difficulties in the wuy of
our churches obtaining tho privilege of a corpora
tion.
Mr. Lehman, in a private letter, dated August 23,
describes the scenes and incidents of his tonr in
Eastern Prussia and return, after tho meeting of the
Prussian Union. He found much to encourage him,
but expresses great concern at the want or laborers,
for which there are abuudant openings. The church
at Berlin is prosperous, an average of six persons
mottthly being received to its communion, and the
congregation increasing. In the Grand Duchy of
Meiklenburg-Bohwerin the government has taken
more stringent measures against the Baptists. Tho
ministers are forbidden to go beyond the limits of the
towns where they reside, lo preach, or to administer
tho ordinances, and are placed under strict surveil-
unco of the polico. Mr. Wegner, at LudwlgsluHt, has
been lined to the amount of twenty-three dollars, and
imprisonment fourteen days.
Sux^-Mr. Smith writes under date of April G,
that a very interesting xtato of religious feeling was
enjoyed in tho mission. Three Siamese women and
a nnraber of Chinese soliolt admission to tho church.
Two Siamese men also profess a hope in Christ, ami
Bomo other* seem to be enquiring tbo way. His at-
tenAt to visit Maolmaln overland was frustrated by
tho govenor of Kanburl, who.Jwhile allowing him his
passport, refused him permission to hire the ele-
J ihants, small boats aud guides indispensable for tho
o -
•peaks in strong terms of the uced of reinforcements
for that mission. The death of Mr. Daublo and of a
valued native preacher, the failing health of anothur
assistant, aud the magnitude of the interests depend
ent ou the lives or the survivors, cause anxiety. Tho
■tation at Gowabstl has been visited with a revival
of religious tntercst. Pivo members of the girls ’
boarding school are hopeful converts throe of wnutn,
with a lad of sixteen or seventeen 1 havo been baptls-
Aprica.—We regret to stato that tho members or
the mission are still suffering from sloknes. No par
ticulars are given, but enough is known of the trials
of an African mission, to prompt on their behalf,
that prayerful sympathy which their circumstances
demand.
American Board or Commissioners—-Tbe forty-
fourth annual meeting of the American Board of Com
missioners for Foreign Missions, will bo held at Cin
cinnati, Ohio, on Tuesday next, the 4th of October,
to commence st 4 o’clock In the Afternoon. It is ex
pected that the opening sermon .will be preached by
ths Rev. Dr. Adams, of New York.
The receipts of the Board to tho 1st of September,
being the first mouth of the' financial year, was $9,-
704,69.
The.most recent intelligtfnoo from tho mission sta
tions we find in tho Missionary Herald for October,
and which U subjoined.
Orylon.—A letter from Mr. Mills, dated June 30,
contains tho following items of information : •• Na
thaniel Ford, who was dismissed in September last,
has been restored. E. N. Kirk 1ms been absent near
ly a year, on account of ill health; and thore is no
prospect of his being able to resume his studies.—
Edward Spaulding has afro been absent for more
than a term, and does not intend, we bear, to return.
Within a year seven persons, educated at the semina-
2 , have died. Their names are Asa Bigelow, John
Crane, Jostln Edwards, Smith Ely, Asabel Nettle-

African languages, all of which differ from each other

remembered that Sierra Leone is tho asylum of thou
sand* of victims rescued from the horrors or the slave

Emancipation—Colonization.
Extract from a sermon ou colonization, by tho Bov.
F. 8. Wiley, rector of tho church of tho Nativity,
Philadelphia, delivered Sunday, Aug. 7th, 1853.
Colonization U tho only paracticahle way of meet
ing tho difficulties which surround tho whole subject
ot slavery. It is practicable to removo tiio whole
colored population to Africa. This, tho immigration
which now threatens to dopopuUto Irelaud, must
conclusively proves it cuu bo dono, and iu a compar
atively short time.
It is tho only desirable modo of dcoliug with tho
ovll. It protnisna tho African ou tho Western coast
whut ho cau no whero else obtain, equality. There
no ruinous competition will lead to discouragement
—but the wholsomo atiruulent of independent actions
draw out tho uativu energies of tho sous of Hum.—
There, ou a wido theatre, they can demonstrate in the
subjoctlon of a continent to tho ploughshare of indus
try, and In spreading over it blessings of civilizatiou
aud religion—their uative ability to take rank with
the most advanced races. They can also, at tho samo
timo, do a work, appropriately, aud most fitly theirs,
suppress the slave trufllcalong tho entire coast. Thus
ovory consideration of interest and humanity, every
iinpulso of religion, urges the colored man back to
the beautiful shores of his fatherland, whore stretch-
lag himself to the full stature of a man, ho may give
a physical, intellectual, and moral development to a
contract, and thus doinonstate tho ussertiou, that
there is no path of tho sea his adventurous foot may
not explore, no mysteries or tbo star his mind cannot
grasp, nor any height of moral cuterpriso too lofty
for his noble and expanding benovolcnco.
May wo reasonably look for emancipation and em
igration to tho colony ? Tho South havo ulrcudy
contributed more than twenty millions of dollars to
thecausoof emancipation, by the voluntary manu
mission of persons bold to servico. If under most
unfavorable circumstances sbo has dono thus much,
who will undertake to measure her liberality when
accusation has given place to kindly encouragement,
amKIio way is opfen to really bcuelft the slave when
lie is set freo ? Thither the free colored population
might bo induced to go, if we would ceo.se to poison
their minds witli false notions. Let the colony be
fully established und bo generously sustained.
There Is no tyranny which a free people will bear
- readily os that of Fashion—there is uo other sub
ject on which they will more cheerfully forego discus
sion—no other law which thoy will more promptly
and unhesitatingly obey. To all other things human
beings are wout to apply their reasoning faculties —
they want to know tho why and tho wherefore ; but
fashions are swallowed whole ; any question on tlm
subject being deemed vulgar und out of date, l’eoplo
must livo in a fashionable quarter of the town, in a
fashionable neighborhood—they must see fashionable
company, dress according to tho latest fashion ; cat
ami drink, walk and ride, a* becomes fashionable
S ile, and rise and go to bed ut fashionable hours.
ull this is done, uot from huhit or pleasure, or !>c-
cau-so people like it, but simply because oilier people,
who are considered fashionable, do the samo ; aud l>e-
cause not to do so would be considered unfashionable.
How trilling are the real, necessary expenses of liv
ing in comparison with the same required to be fash
ionable ; und whut little gratification docs fashiou-
after nil, afford to her votaries? Who if ho could but
muster the courage to act his judgment would be a
devotee to fashion 1 How many fortunes would he
preserved, how many men saved from bankruptcy
and ruin, aud how much real moral degradation avoid
ed if men and women could bo brought to assume tho
responsibility of declaring themselves independent of
tho whim and caprice ot' others, whom they do not
know, and for whom they do not cure!
As a general rule, these who set the fashions are
less scrupulous about following them, than those who
are known only liy their scrupulous obedience to the
law. Tho makers of fashions may have a design iu
wlmt they dn. They may wish to hide a default or
to set off an advantage, or to gratify a particular fan
cy. Tho imitator has no such resource. He promises
to obey for the present and iu future without know
ing where fashion may lead him, or whut custom nr
habit, which is a foiniort to him now, ho muy be call
ed upon to surrender, in order not to lose custe.
And tben how often docs fashion conflict with
lusto—witli ail true appreciation of wlmt ia becoming
and beautiful! Mon itnd women of mind, even when
following fashion, will have an eye to propriety uud
tasto ; mere followers asks no questions except us to
time. He is determined to be an exquisite, und has
no suspicion of mnkiug himself exquisitiveiy ridicu
lous.
The Chinese are tho only pcopio on earth who have
no fashions whatever. They live, dress and auiuso
themselves as they did thousands of years ago ; aud
this is a sort of piuty with them, result ing from their
reverence for those whofimvu gone before them. Tho
fashion ot the father is handed down to the son, and
by him bequeathed to his children, and tbusapeeies of
conservatism, thongh it inay have arrested tlieir pro
gress, haa undoubtedly preserved them and tlieir civil
ization through a period equal to tho world’s history.
We kuow not what" Young China ” may do hereaf
ter ; but wo mneb doubt whether the fashions of Faria
ami Loudon will evor obtain in Peking and Nanking.
We, who pride ourselves on our political iii-U-pen-
donee, our feoedoui from European prejudices, anu ou
our intellectual emancipation generally, allow, never
theless, fashion to lord it over iih with a most unspar
ing hand. We surrender tho liberty we havo eon-
querred to a foreign despot, for the fashions we obey
are notour owu-they have not grown out of our
mode of living and thinking and acting, hut are the
offthont* of Europeau society, and precisely that por
tion of it whom it is our special privilege to detest and
,,r * * ‘—’lc L
abhor. We dress to enrich foreign manufacturers,
wo live expensively without deriving gratification
from it, wo furnish our houses a In ro-co-co, without
the slightest historical association with that strange
ornamental corruption of taste. All these tilings do
not add a particle to our ' ‘ ‘ ‘ '
wonderfully our expenses
butary to foreign artisans for immense sums, which
annually swoll our iudebtedacsH to Europe.
If we must havo fashions, why cauuot Yankee in
genuity, which is so successful in every thing useful
nnd profitable, set tho examplo as well os England
and France ? It is usual for English papers to add to
every description of the Queen’s drawing-Uoom :—
" Her Majesty, or Imdy So and-9o, wore nothing but
British manfactures,” but in independent America, a
lady’s dress, reported in a New York paper, must be
every thing but American. That is de rigueur,
Singular Statement for a Religious Paper—
Tho New York li(Upendent,u Congregational paper,
of which Henry Ward Beecher is a stated contribu
tor, holds tho following remarkable languago on
skepticism and reform :
Among all the earnest-minded young men who arc
at tills moment leading in thought and action in
America, wo venture to sny that four-fifths are skep
tical oven of the grout historical fact* of Christianity.-
What is told as Christian doctrine by tho churches
is not even considered by them. And furthermore,
there is among them a general ill concealed distrust
of the clerical body as a class, and utter disgust witli
Hie very aspect of modern Christianity and of tho
church worship. This skepticism is not flippant;
littlu is said about it. It is notu peculiarity alone of
the radicals and fanatics; many of them arc men or
calm nnd even balance of mind, nnd belong to no
class* of ultraists. It is not worldly and selfish.
Tho doubtor* lead in the bravest and most sclf-duny-
Ing enterprises of tho day.
A Touching 8cknr.—A beautiful infant lind been
taught to say and it could say little else, “ God wilt
take cure of baby.” It was seizod with sickness, at
a timo when both parents were just recovering from
a dangerous illness. Every diy it grew worso, nnd
at last wan given up to die. Almost agonized, tho
mother begged to bo carried into the room of liar
darling, to give it ouo last embrace. Both parents
succeeded iu rcuching tho apnrtmout, just as it was
thought the huby bad breathed its last. Tho mother
wept aloud, when unco more tho little creature open
ed it* eyes, lookcifr lovingly up in her face, smiled,
moved it* lips, and in a faint voice said. “ God will
tako care of baby.” Sweet consoling word* ! they
bad hardly ceased when tlip infant spirit was in

know him best—have given to Skwaiid, onr satisfac
tion with tbo result iu Thomas would not havo been
complcto without the splendid majority which sho has
given for Johnson. No lilglior evldcucc could bo
furuished of tho sterling political integrity of Sk-
ward and hi* friends, than tho voto which they havo
polled for tho Democratic Gubernatorial Candidate,
in Seward’s own county. By sacrificing Johnson
to advance tbeir favorite county-man, they could, in
house ia composed of a curtain number of clerical
aud lay delegates, regulated by tiie diocesan or stato
convention, which elect* them ; and generally rang
ing from two to five persons of eacli order. These
sit together with open doom.
ie delegates or deputies vote by orders nnd by
dioceses; a divided delegation, whether voting or
not, i* always recorded on tho Journal. In this grand
representative council, answering in every respect to
tho House of Representatives in the General Govern
ment ur the United States, originate all laws and re
solves on the government and discipline of the Pro-
all probability, have given tho latter a majority of. J° 8 titnt Episcopal Church in this country,which on

three or four hundred in Thomas. And they might
havo found justification for such a course in tho intel
ligence which thoy hud received, that Seward was to
bo beaten in this city, under the pretence that he was
hostile to Savannah, and not reliable dk a Democrat.
But most nobly have they risen ubavo tho feeling*,
which tho condition of tiling* here wa* so well calcu
lated to awukeu there. Seward’s zealous, uhio und
uncompromising support of Johnson throughout thu
whole canvass lias been nobly responded to by hi*
friend* nt homo ; and through his efforts and theirs,
tho gain for tho Democratic candidate for Governor,
in Thomas county, on Towns’ vote in 1849, is three
hundred nnd eight! Seward and his friends actual
ly got for Johnson, in that county, though not so
large a majority, a larger vote than for Seward him
self ; a fact which goes far to prove that however It
might have becu in this city, iu Thomns the contest
between Bartow and Reward, was uot a sectional
ono. Tho samo men who voted against Bartow vo
ted again4 Jenkins—a result which would not huve
occurred, had they voted against Bartow, simply on
tho ground that he was a citizen of Savannah. We
may add in this connection, for the benefit of such as
havu professed friendship for Johnson nnd Democra
cy, while opposing Seward, that but for his efforts in
Johnson’s behalf, tho Governor elect of Georgia,
would uot be a Democrat:—and thu patriotic admin
istration of Gen. Pierce would uow stand 44 rebuked ”
in'tho presence of the world, by a triumph of its
ouomies iu the Empire Stato of the South.
I.owmti's Comity.
A friend in Thoumsviiie writes to us that Lowndes
has elected Knight Senator by 209, and Radford
Representative by 203 nroj.—both Whigs— ami giv
en n mnjorlty of 22 for Jenkins, and 38 for Seward.
His letter is dated Oct. 4 th. The Tiioinnavile I Dutch
man of the 5th gives only partial returns from
Lowndes. From Troupvillc, the county site, an in
telligent gentleman, under date of Oct.4tii, writes as
follow*: ~
44 Wo havo not heard from all tho precincts, but
enough has been received to satisfy us that Knight
und Radford, Whigs, have carried tho county by
about 150 mnjority. Reward's majority will bo not
less tlinu 100, nnd probably 150. Majority for Gov
ernor small, and at tills timo cannot say which will
have it.”
This leads ns to doubt tiio correctness of tho figures
in our tables, giving a majority of 22 for Jenkins and
only 38 for Reward.
.... ... w.—Ta, aro
sent to tho HousA of Bishops for confirmation.”
It is said that business or great moment, affecting
materially the Canon law of the Church, and having
reference to a possible change of tho gove'iunentul
organization or tho body, will probably occupy tho
attention of the Convention, ot tho present session.

(Mcllvniuc) of Ohio, who took hi* text from Mathew

The Legislature.
We have attempted to compile, from a mass of very
imperfect accounts, n tabular statement showing the
names and political character of the members elected
to the Legislature. It is not complete, aud perhaps
not absolutely accurate even as fur ns it goes. A
Macon friends telegraphs to us, 44 1 make 30 Demo*
erotic majority in the Legislature on joint ballot—13
in the Senate—17 in the Houko.” We have no doubt
that the mnjority is sufficient for all practical pur
poses.
Third District—Unite}- Klccted!
Wo are indebted to a friend iu Macon for the fol
lowing despatch, received Inst night, which we think
settles tho question of the election of that noble
hearted and unswerving Democrat, David J. Bailey:
44 Mr. Hood, tbo Governor’s Secretary ia here. He
says that an examination of the official vote of the
Third District, ns forwarded to MiliedgeviUe, shows
thnt Bailey is elected by a mnjority of (20) twenty.”
Governor.—A despatch dated Macon, the 8th, 10.
40 A. M.. thinks Johnson is elected by not less than
800 mnjority. TuiiTEhn* a mnjority of 11 voles over
Bailey. Irwiu gives 320 for Reward nnd2 70 for
Johnson.
Giuiernatouial Election.— The election of John
son By from five hundred ton thousand mnjority docs
not seem to admit ofu doubt—though the exact state
of the vote is yet uncertain. From Clinch we have
no intelligence whatever, while from several other
counties report* somewhat vnry.
Congressional Delegation.—The gentlemen who
seem to bo elected to Congress aro Seward, Colquitt,
Bailey, Dent, Chastain und Hillyor, six Democrats ;
and Stephous and Reese, two Whigs. That will do.
