the Bible contains. In the field of science new discoveries have been made in each succeeding age, while it has been the province of the moralist and the divine to enforce those principles which had been previously proclaimed by divine author ity. All the varied duties of civil, social and pri vate life have been explicitly pointed out, and precepts given for the regulation of all those pas sions to which depraved man is subject. That they have been so little regarded, that so few have been found to conform their conduct to them, instead of detracting from has confirmed their value and utility; for all the unhappiness and wretchedness which has been and still is ex hibited in ttiis world, has been occasioned by a departure from these precepts and by pursuing a course reprobated and condemned by them. An eager desire for happiness is'one of the grand cliaracteristicks of all human beings; and another equally distinguishing, is, that their own unas sisted efforts, even when crowned wish all the success (hey anticipated, will not enable them to. obtain it. The reason is obvious—they pursue a blind guide, nd wander from the path of duty, and foolishly imagine that happiness is only to be found in the pleasures, the honours and riches of this.world. The latter of these, as enabling the possessor to command the other two, is the object of most general and inordinate desire. Yet there is no one propensity of the human heart more of ten condemned in the sacred volume than the Jove of riches. Mammon is the idol whose vota ries are almost numberless, at whose shrine even many professing Christians are found to and this notwithstanding the declaration of the Divine Author of Christianity—“ Ye cannot serve God and Mammon.” It would seem that the sa cred volume was penned under the impression that the love of wealth would be one of the most be setting sins; for upon no one subject is there to be found more erf precept, of caution, and of ad monition. Nothing so effectually estranges the heart from God, nothing so often interferes to prevent the discharge of those duties which indi viduals owe to their fellow-men, and nothing that produces so mych fraud, oppression and injustice. A thirst for gain has filled the world with crimes of the deepest dye. It has led to all thoso pira cies which have interrupted the pursuit of lafvful commerce, and to - those murders wjiich have en crimsoned the ocean with the blood of unoffend ing victims. It has seduced from honest industry those who have engaged in counterfeiting the currency of the country, and caused so many to assume the disgusting profession, and to maintain the odious character of a Gamester. It has given rise to all the cheats and impostors that prey upon the unwary, and to at least one half the liars that uifest society. These are evils produced by the love of money which all may see and acknow. ledge ; but there are others which though not so obvious to our view have an equal tendency to lessen the amount of human happiness. The pos session of wealth cannot be considered a crime, nor should the use of fair and honest means to ac quire it be condemned. They however Who pos sess it, are justly censurable when they husband it aßttie source or men u*vu cjcjuioc gimmimiou, and when their attachment to it renders them deaf to all the varied and pressing calls of human ity. Those also who pursue the acquisition of wealth for their own aggrandizement, those who in their course infringe upon the rights and tram ple upon the feelings of others, cannot secure the approbation of their own consciences, much less the favour of heaven. Too often is it the case that the man of wealth holds on to his possessions with a miserly grasp, unmindful of the wants of the poor which he might relieve, and of the other demands of charity with which he might comply without sacrificing one rational enjoyment, and without impoverishing himself or. his posterity, ami too often does the aspirant after wealth ob tain his object by the ruin of the fortunes of his fellow beings. The unreasonableness of an overweening at tachment to wealth, and the extreme folly of the means adopted to acquire it, are manifest from other considerations than those that, have been suggested. They imply a distrust in a superin tending Providence,whose kind and watchful care supplies the wants of all his creatures, and with out whose permission no human efforts can be of gny avail. That man can know no true enjoy ment whose affections are placed upon his wealth, and whose desire for more increases in proportion to liia acquisitions. The miserly and avaricious man are subject to perpetual disquietude, and doomed, like the fabled Sisyphus, to labour at that which crashes them with its own weight.— They neglect concerns of infinite moment; the interests of the immortal soul are forgotten, and uo preparations are made for that eternity upon which they must enter. How unwise to cleave so intensely to that which they must so soon leave, to that which can neither stay the progress of dis ease, nor arrest the stroke of death. They know riot to whom they leave tludr wealth, as they can have no security that it will be continued to their children, if they have any. Under our republican government there is uo curtailment of property, (and for the preservation of our liberties it is for tunate that it is so,) and it is a well established fact, that the descendants of those who have pos sessed immense wealth, have often fallen into the extreme of poverty. ,No one who has lived to the age of manhood but must have seen strikingly ver ified the remark, that “ riches take to themselves wings and tly away.” By these remarks we are led to the inquirv —what is the proper use of wealth ? The possess sor of [ jqperty, and he w ho aims to acquire it, are entitled to commendation only when they consi der themselves the stewards of God, and the al moners of his bounty, hi the performance of these offices, the rich may diffuse blessings around them, and cause them to flow in abundance into their own'souls. Many a tear might be wiped away, and many a virtuous man struggling under adversity might be assisted, if wealth were to re ceiveits proper distribution, aud all this might be done without the sacrifice of any gratification that reason or Scripture would approve. There are so | many objects of publick and private charity at the present day, that someone at least must have the good wishes of all who are not lost to every principle of benevolence. There are hospitals for the aged and the asylums for the wid ow and the orphan, Colonization, Bible, Mission ary and Education Societies, upon which individ uals might bestow of the superabundance of their riches, and thus produce incalculable good.— These institutions constitute the honour and glory of the age in which we live. They are the instru ments by which the face of the moral world is to be renovated; by which liberty, science and Chris tianity are to be made to revisit the long oppres sed and benighted inhabitants of Africa ; by which the word of God is to be circulated in every land, and among every people ; by which the millions of idolaters who now inhabit our Western wilder ness, and the immense regions of Asia and Africa are to be made acquainted with the true G*d,and with the plan of salvation by our Lord and Sav iour Jesus Christ, and by means of which the “ Gospel is to be preached to every creature.” If none of these objects can excite to liberality; if the wealthy will still retain every cent of their pamper and gratify their lusts and ap petites, they could not be made to see thejr ex treme folly and wickedness, nor the certain end of tlreir course, though for this purpose one were to rise from the dead. A Correspondent in New Haven, Con. ob serves, “ We are highly favoured here, and for 40 miles around us, with powerful revivals of relig ion. The Lord, blessed be his name, hath not forsaken us. More than 400 have recently join ed the several churches in this city, and many more are to be added. In the College, the revi val commenced some time since, and is now in creasing. “ We'live in an eventful period of the world. The Lord is doing great things on our earth, and is making glad the hearts of his people.” The Rev. Mr. Rice, the Baptist missionary, writes from Washington city under date of March 13th, in the following manner;—“Our concerns here relative to a college, and an institution to promote the education of the ministry, are going j on well. “ Interesting news (rom Burmah—Mr. Judson ! has baptized ten of the Burmans, notwithstanding I the fearful hand of persecution to which the con verts become exposed.” We understand, that the Rev. Dr. Morse, who visited, during the last summer, the Indian tribes who live upon the Northern Lakes, Is now engag ed in preparing his Report to the General Gov ernment. He expects, in-the course of the next winter, to visit the Aborigines situated to the South and Southwest. We trust these measures taken by the Government, and executed by a man so well qualified for the business as Dr. Morse must be, will be followed by a rich blessing to the natives of our country. We were last week without a supply of paper, and The Missionary was not published. We ■ - • *—— L ‘ r ~ but concluded it would be more agreeable to our subscribers to omit publishing altogether, and to make up the whole number of papers for a year’s subscription. Our paper was in Augusta, but no seasonable conveyance could be obtained. This apology we hope -will be satisfactory to our sub scribers. Foreign and Domestick Intelligence. IMPORTANT-FROM EUROPE. An arrival at Boston from Liverpool brings pa pers to the 13th Feb. inclusive. It is stated in the latest paper, that th_e main division of the Austrian army-, consisting of 60,000 men, broke up from its quarters on the right bunk of the Po on the 29th January, with orders to MARCH UPON NAPLES } \ manifesto, it was st ated, had been issued announcing the invasion to be made not by Austria, as a separate power, hut as a member of the Holy Alliance. The invasion is /iflso stated to be made solely for the purpose of dictating such a form of constitution to the Nea politans as may be consistent with the safety of their neighbours. Bv tetters from Trieste, we learn that the Aus trian fleet in that port, consisting of two sail of the line and three frigates, besides numerous vessels of a smaller class, are under orders for immediate service. The garrison of Trieste has received instructions to march to head quarters at Milan, but they- are to be replaced by other troops; and the Austrian ports on the Adriatick are directed to be put in a state of defence. Thus after a peace of six years, the flame of war is rekindle 1 in Europe ; and if Naples should possess the pow er of hearing up against the Austrians, it may he long before it is again extinguished. Though the advance of the Austrian troops was expected at Naples, no suspicion existed that it was so near at hand. By an arrival at Charleston, Liverpool papers to the 7th, and London to the sth February, have been received. The most important intelligence furnished is, the determination of the British gov ernment not to interfere with the Sovereigns as sembled atLaybach, on the internal aff.irs of any of the nations on the continent. Os this they have been officially notified by the British government. A letter from the continent asserts that the old King of Naples had peremptorily refused to agree to any alterations in the Constitution of his eoiin trv, recently adopted,and that the deliberations of the Congress had consequently been brought to a close, and that orders were immediately des patched to Milan *o put the troops in motion. Monday the 29th of January, was the first an niversary of the accession of George the Fourth , to the throne of England. It was celebrated by religions services, and by the most extravagant “ merry making” in various parts of the kingdom. Large donations were made to the poor, on the occasion, by the nobility and gentry. On the 25th of January, Lord A. Hamilton moved in the House of Commons, “ That the or der of Council of the 12th of Feb. 1820, which excluded the name of the Queen from the Litur gy, was ill-advised and inexpedient.” On this motion, a warm debate took place, which was finally decided, for the motion, 209 ; against it, 310; majority in favour of ministers, 101. Letters of the 6th of Feb. from Liverpool, state that the host,Upland Cottons which had come to hand, of the new crop, would not do more than pay cost and charges at 12 cents per lb. first cost. For Sea Islands, 14 a 20d. was the general quota tion, and as high as 2s. for the very best, aucha* offers. St, Doming'?. —An insurrection among the troops stationed at St, Marc and Gonaives took place in February last, instigated by Jean Pierre Richard, one of Christophers generals of division, who had long before the death of that chief, con ceived the plan of usurping the government. The insurgents plundered Gonaives, but finally re turned to their duty, and all had become quiet. Gen. Richard had been condemned to death 4iy a special tribunal; the other conspirators would be tried by the usual court martial. There had also been some disturbances at Cape Henry, and theU. S sloop of war Ontario Remained there for some time at the requeetof the whites ; and it was generally believed that her presence saved them from a general massacre. Extract of a letter from Rio Janeiro, dated 18/ft Nov. iB2O. “ I arrived here on the 16th, and'foond the-pub lick mind much agitated. The revolution in Por tugal has prepared the way for something of the kind ; here the volcano is ready to burst— and, from the best information that 1 can get, Brazil will be free from the present despotick gov ernment before the year ends. “The soldier?“have refused to salute the King, and the lives of the ministry have been threaten ed.

Augusta, April 4th, 1821. 3w46 The following notice of the above work is from the Edinburgh Review for August 1820 : “ While we are upon the subject of American literature, we think ourselves called upon to state, that we have lately received two Numbers, being those for January and April last, of ‘ The North American Review, or Miscellaneous Journal ,’ published quarterly at Boston, which appears to us to be by far the best and most promising pro duction of the press of that country that has ever come to our hands. It is written with great spir it, learning and ability, on a great variety of sub jects ; and abounds with profound and original discussions on the most interesting topicks.— Though abundantly patriotick, or rather national, there is nothing offensive or absolutely unreasona ble in the tone of its politicks; and no very rep rehensible marks either of national partialities or antipathies. The style is generally good, though with considerable exceptions—and sins oftener from affectation than ignorances But the work is of a powerful and masculine character, and is decidedly superiour to any thing of the kind that existed in Europe 20 years ago. “ It is a proud thing for us to see Quarterly Re views propagating bold truths and original specu lations in all quarters ol the world ; and when we grow old and stupid ourselves, we hope still to ue honoured in the talents and merits of those heirs ofour principles and children of our example.” Fifty Dollars Reward.
