Iirl.it inn Aslvornfr " mill I lie fiptscoiinl Convention. The “Southern Christian Advocate," of last creek, republishes an article from the 11 St, Louts Christian Advocate" on the above anb. jeet, in the most supercilious manner, dis paraging the 1’roloetant Episcopal Church, its teachings, ministry and economy. Sorely after the delistn in lieltimore, the Epiaeopal Church has no need to fear the moat searching testa of criticism. Indeed, we are glad that Episcopal ians enjoy the singular advantage of “ seeing themselves as others see them." We roaskly hope, that these charities of criticism will “Iroe them" from “ many a tdnnder ” in the fnture. It is amusing how this “ runaway daughter ” of the Episcopal Church, continues still to rail at the “old folks at homobecause, forsooth, the old people will not entirely vacate the homestead altogether, and loave the ancestral halls to the prodigious sweep of her eclesiasti- cal crinoline! It is a charming piece of “human nature," that so many of our good Methodist kinsmen cannot yet forgive themselees far icav- ing I ho family manaion. Those “ belter sala ries," and that “more tnterahU life,” will not “ down " from the eyn of reproaobfnl memory. It is provoking, that the “ highly respectable" and “ influential" old ohnrch, refuses to gratify “expectation," and break np into a few more Hob-diviaiona of the religion of the undivided Christ. It strikes us, the case of these two twin •* Advocate*,'' is Jonah's preeiaoly. the city £» sparcil, ami Jonah in gritted. It is quite unnecessary to defend the forms and eeremomea of the church, sinoe John Wes ley loved and used then); and we would canlion these Methodists Editors against rashly throw ing atones at the Episcopal Church— they might hit John Wesley.' For all the religion he over bad tied gate him in the Episcopal Church, in the use of these very dangerous forms—and ainoo now these “advocates" admit that the “llvnssi of Disho|ia" elected by the people awl representing them, are “ancqnivorully" on tbo side of spiritnal and cvungeltpal religion;" they might hit siso many of God's trno people, whom they aro so solemnly forbiddon to “of fend. ’’ Truly, this famous article is u marvel of logic. It so completely answers itself that criticism seems superfluous. For example: it conoedea that fu the detistcs at Baltimore there was “the courtesy of well bred gontiemen." And courtesy is Christian—s rare etiaracteristio of controver sial debate. “And a great deal of real Christian feeling toward* other denominations.'' And so the church, after alt, is not so snpcrcilionsly bigoted as some would report it. “The Metho dists were always spoken of with respect, some times with high commendation!" The “old folks" aro kind still; and now, in the name of clirrit j, why do these crabbed editors persist in returning evil for this acknowledged good? Further, concedes onr critic, “all subjects were treated with dignity, and all speakers with fairness." (Two nioro Christian graces, Reverence and Juitlcc:)—“agroat advantage over our Methodist Conference. For snbjects ware examined thoroughly and conclusions upon them not foregoue or spasmodic. The convention knew wbat it was abont, which onr General Conference does not," (Enough said: Here the article should lure closed!) lint “happily"—oontiimes this “Christian Advo MANHOOD YOUNG AND RISING GENERATOR The vegetative powers of life are strong, but a few yean how often the pallid hue, the lack luster eye, and emaciated form, and the impossibil ity of application to mental effort, show their baneful influence.

This it ono of tbo wont movements. Be moved from ordinary di version* of the over-changing scenes of the city, the powers of the body, too much enfeebled to give zeet to healthful and rural exercise, thoughts are turned inwardly upon themselves.

And therefore, as we peroeive, there is the largett possible room in tho minds of these charitable editors, wherein to accommodate and adjust tho doctrinal troubles of others. Purely, as that lawyer exclaimed, who was betrayed into talking lore: * "Thedevilhimaclfmust have unstrung The practical caution of my tongue!" Think of a christain church, m tho tilth century, not troubled with doctrines! Why, this remind* me of a prayer I onee heard from a hard-shell preacher, “Lord, wo onght'nt to bother thee with onr prayers!" The millennium ia oertainly near at hand. “Forthor," continues onr dootrinally.nntrnnb. led editor, “it may not bo impertinent to re mark that the lay delegates of the convention were fully tlie equals of the clergy in intelli gence and ability to legislate for the Ghurrh. Indeed, as a whole, the laity were niperior to the olergy Then, let me ask, why do not onr Methodist brethren call in this lay element into their conference, and aavo themselves from that “rash and busty" legislation which onr critic himself acknowledges as the evil of their pneatiy government ? Must wo llunk they have no aneh lay intelligence ? Does their system rail to anffldentiy develop and train it? lteally, we are at a loaa how to take this, whether for com pliment or reproach. It ia a proverb—“like pastors like people." Tho history of Christianity, aayn Vinet, ia the history of its teachers. Have, indeed, the Episcopal clergy ont-witted them- selves in producing scholars superior to their instructors ? Admirable church system that can boast such results! But the problem is solved! “For some rea son or other! the clergy are largely recruited from other denominations—leading toon largely imported! Sometimes an able one from Motho- dist rank* goea over to the church!" But. rias! wbat a tripin all thi* beautiful looio! Tneee imported gentlemen go to “take a lower plaoe, an hnmbter eauacity,” to “escape the intellectual strain of the Mothodiat pulpit” —eojoy tbe “delioioos change" of ceremonial duly! This is singular! Why any “able” men at all, should come where so “little **•*“''required, i* the question? Why all Ibis leading talent should seek a church that “needs no nioro intellect than do the functions . ? ““"elman Imamu?"

But we remember the Divine law of its success; “Not by might nor bypeiecr, but by my Spirit, saith tbo Lord." There are “diversities of operations” in this Md alen. The sling of an humble stripling David rosy, under God, do more than the armed busts of a Haul! Facts are stubborn tiling*, they node! no discussion.

Eusiuess Suits For nearly half a century the Georgia Telegraph and the Georgia Journal and Messenger, either separately or united, have been the great organs of general intelligence to this and the contiguous sections of Georgia and Alabama. In all the varied social, civil and political experience of this region during that extended and momentous period in its history, these old Journals have been the constant and familiar CLOTHING! visitors of thousands of households in this vast area of country, and have numbered their readers and patrons by successive generations. In the whole scope of this great Agricultural section of two of the most important Cotton States, the fortunes of these journals have varied simply with the varying fortunes of the people, and to-day their cir culation and hold upon the public confidence and estimation have never been exceeded at any period in’their long history. Indeed, as the demands upon newspapers became yearly more exacting—the expen ses of publication increase and concentration of capital and labor be come more indispensable, so, we are glad to say, our circulation and influence increase with equal steps. The former have multiplied more than tenfold in the last twenty years, and the circulation and business of the Telegraph and Messenger have increased in the same propor tion. We rejoice to believe that in no section of the United States is there a newspaper possessing a more complete occupation of its pecu liar field of circulation than do the various editions of the Telegraph and Messenger, within that whole region of country to which it can _A_T SIS. I can 7 *ke earliest intelligence. Its circulation in gross we suppose to be not exceeded by that of any newspaper in the Carolinas, Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi, with perhaps a single exception, but its cir culation in its appropriate and particular field, is without an approxi mating rival. These tire the circumstances and this the condition which make the Telegraph and Messenger such a remarkably good Advertising Me dium. There is scarcely a family or individual doing business with Macon, within a radius of two or three hundred miles around the city, who does not read the paper, so that an advertisement in its columns reaches all eyes. The Macon merchant can scarcely add a greater publicity to his business, among people who can trade with him, after he has advertised in this paper. The Northern or Western merchant or manufacturer can rely on the fact that by advertising in this paper he will address the whole mercantile, professional and agricultural Coat, Pants and Vest, I population of this large area, and need go no farther for that purpose. We are frequently in receipt of testimonials from advertisers of all classes as to the peculiar valne of this newspaper as an advertising medium. And we are ready to place these advantages at the disposal of the public on the most reasonable terms compatible with our expenses and COATSI circulation. Onr policy is to encourage advertising by moderate charges; but it must be obvious to every man of common sense that we cannot multiply copies of advertisements by thousands, for the same price that others can furnish them by scores and hundreds. This point is better understood in the great commercial centres where ad vertising is valued and paid for precisely according to the scale of cir culation—where one paper will be cheerfully paid three dollars a line and another five cents a line for the same advertisement, according to their measure of circulation. The first furnishes paper, press-work and circulation for a hundred thousand impressions, and the latter perhaps for a few hundreds. The contracts have all the difference which exists between a pound and hogshead of sugar; but both, it may be, print and circulate a merchant’s address to the public for less than half what a corresponding number of circulars or handbills would DIAGONAL COATS, I cost, which could have no other circulation than they might obtain from a range of limited personal acquaintances and mere fugacious personal efforts. There can be no cheaper or better method of ad vertising than through the columns of a popular, widely circulated newspaper, which by long habit and association has become the daily source of information to all within the scope of country which fur nishes the trade of its commercial centre. All other expedients to communicate with the people are comparatively inefficient and value less. We place the Telegraph and Messenger before the public, as a certain, popular, and unrivalled medium of advertising communica- VANILIA, LEMON Etc., For Flavoring Ice Cream, Cakes & Pastry.
