TURN WOLD, GA., DECEMBER 8, 1862.
“Our Close Communion Baptist Friends.”
A correspondent, at tlie close of his let
ter, says, “ I hope you will give our close
cummunion Baptist friends an occasional
notice.”
In reply to this, I will say what I have
often said before—that I agree with no sect
whatever, in all things, but agree with the
Baptists in as many things as with any 7
other denomination. Those, then, who
hope to see, as a special feature of this
journal, attacks upon any particular de
nomination, will be sorely disappointed. I
believe there are errors in all denomit a-
tions, as I know there are virtues in all. In
the Baptists, though differing with them
with reference to theii views of baptism
and church communion, I see many things
to admire. I particularly admire their
form of church government, their love of
liberty and independence, and their firm
and unyielding adhesion to what they 7
believe to be principle. As a denomina
tion, I like them very much, in many
things—particularly the Hardshell por
tion of the family 7 , as I have often taken
occasion to testify. If anybody thinks,
then, that I am going to make any special
war on Baptists, I repeat it, he will be sore
ly disappointed. I allowed uncle Jimmy
Dai.ielly the use of my 7 columns to show
lip some of the foibles of the Methodists—
(and he stirred them up smartly, too)—and
my Baptist brethren very much enjoyed
the treal, as they frequently testified. If
they themselves should be stirred up, occa
sionally, I know they will be too magnan
imous to complain.
I know not to wliat. sect my correspond
ent belongs, except that lie is not a Bap-,
tist. To whatever sect be may be attached,
either nominally, or in creed—let him look
out. His time will surely come, some day
or other.
Wliat Mr. Stephens Said.
The Augusta Constitutionalist says:
We are authorised to say 7 that Mr. Ste
phens, in his recent speech at Sparta, Ga.,
did not urge the planting largely of cotton.
On the contrary, he urged the importance
of raising targe crops of grain, v hile the
war lasted—not only for home consump
tion, but, also, to feed the army.
The clothing, shoeing, and feeding of
our men in the field, was the object of Mr.
Stephens’s address at Sparta,as well as that
in Oglethorpe County, on Wednesday last:
and he then declared that the supplying of
the army was the first and highest duty of
the countryman.
every patriot. In relation to our foreign
policy, the idea of some, that we should
abandon the growth of cotton, in order to
force onr recognition abroad, was, in his
judgment, a radical and fundamental error,
as he believed cotton to be one of our
chief elements of power—not political,but
commercial: but we should first see to it,
that our provision crop is ample for \ome
and army consumption : and when that is
secured, the more cotton we plant the
better.”
