T?i£ MissiuiMkir- MOUNT ZION, FRIDAY, MAY 25, 1821. A more honourable testimony could not be borne to the Christian system, than that furnish od by the comparative order and happiness of those countries where the principles of the Gospel are inculcated ami ita institutions established and revered. We have only tu glance the eye over the wide waste of paganism, and to contemplate the degradation and wretchedness of man unen lightened by revelation, in order to carry home to the understanding an irresistible conviction of the worth of Christian instruction. Scarcely any thing in the form of a bcncvoleut institution, has ever existed in the heathen world. The most celebrated nations of antiquity, whose mental and military course is marked with a blare of glory, in -This particular, claim kindred, if not identity, | with the great mass of unfeeling barbarians. The page* of Grecian and Roman story disclose but few facts whiah do credit to the liner sensibilities of these ancient lords of the earth. Magnanimi ty and patriotism are almost the. only elevated and profitable qualities to which they paid a steady and pertinacious adherence. If examples of deli cate sympathy, may here and there be found,they ; are to be attributed to the impulse of nature, j which cannot always be repressed by adventitious cireumstances, rather than to a deep-rooted and pervading national charucteristick. With the ; m&eries ofc*thers,and especially with that wretch edness which is the companion or the offspring of guilt, the. majority had no communion. Hospitals and infirmaries—asylums for the protection of the Orphan, and societies for the relief of the Widow : and the unnumbered associations which are based upon the principles of universal brotherhood; which, crossing the narrow boundaries of kindred and country', consult the temporal and eternal in-1 tere-ts of all who wear the human form and pos- \ sess an immortal mind, are exclusively the result j of Christian truth. Not a trace of*heir existence j is to be found in pagan lands. These edifices, j which stand as the wonders of the world, were i ’ erected, not by the systems of Zeno or Socrates, | ;• but by the doctrine of Jesus Christ and his apos- i | ties. Few inquiries are more interesting or profita i blmthan those which relate to the progress of the I- Gospel—to its influence over local institutions, • and its agency in the formation of national cha | racter. It is the only system which possesses a | controling power. The passions, and prejudices, j I and barbarity of man, can withstand every thing j [ but the omnipotence of the Gospel. Wherever! this system is published amt embraced, its reno- j vating effects are seen and felt. Society exhibits j la new aspect—the savage becomes a man —the 1 I intellectual powers awake from their quiescent j I state, and pursue a wider range ; a more vigorous j j tore of moral feeling pervades the heart; the j I midnight darkness melts into noon-day lustre, i and the heavy curse entailed upon the first sin ! ner and all his posterity, and under the practical j operation of which, the earth has wept and groaned, while the heavens have, in sympathy, echoed back its plaintive cries, is stayed in its execution by the more than countervailing influ ence of this system of mercy. Such are the ef fects of the Christian religion in this world, that it is worthy of propagation, though the immortality jf the soul were out of the question. Itliftsman roin the deepest degradation, and exalts him once more to a condition a “ little lower than the an tels.” So distinct, and obvious, and prominent ire its eflects, that were the nations of the earth ;o pass under the inspection of a critical eye, it j vouid not be difficult to fix upon those, by an in stantaneous recognition, who have been instruc :ed in the doctrine of Christ. Their intel>,ence, freedom and happiness, and, above all, their pub 'ickinstitutions, from which, as the centre of vi tality, emanates the life-blood of national exis- j ■*:nee, distinctly tell us where eternal truth has fchecl its illumination, where the doctrines of the cross have been published, and where the Con queror of nations has achieved his victories. With these facts before us, it is not strange hat the Christian world should unite in a grand md mightly effort for she universal spread of the riospel. The only mystery attending this busi less, is, that the disciples <f Christ have continu d to enjoy such a deep and protracted slumber ; the last command of the triumphant qav * >ur, to “ prtack the Gospel to evert; creature ,” tould exert no practical influence —should pos ;! sss no constraining power. We fix the eye al irnatelv upon Christian and upon Pagan lands, ■ id pause and wonder, not that exertions should 2 1 l aw he made to impart the blessings of the Gos | el to every nation under heaven, but that this ’ ork. requiring the combined energies of Chris-] t ndom, should hav- been deferred so long. We 1 i imediatcly feel an identity of interest with the la snevolent associations of the day, which have \r their objec t nothing less than the political, in jwllectuu! and moral renovation of the world. Bp In this acre of Christian eCort, we are presented ■with a rich fund of the most cheering intelligence. has in some measure, taken the jiiace of the systems of mere human policy ; and jn equal if not a superiour interest is excited by ■m phanges which attend the march of the King |*F Zioti,\vhicTi was once the exclusive prerogative <1 political revolution. Religious News is deoi -9 edly the most important which is in circulation 11 the present day. The elements of the moral > ,’stem are ir* a state of revolution, while the poi *1 iical world is in a condition of comparative rest. ! 1 Tile human empires, with few exceptions,main- i 1 tn their old and settled boundaries, the king-; < ms of Christ is acquiring glory by the addition <1 one subjugated province after another, fn this 1 t* ; 'k multitudes have already united, and, in the ‘ ri rular progress of terrestrial operations, which a • moved forward by an invisible, though potent *< a, the resources of the world will he combined j ijj giving publicity to the doctrine, and triumph to;the spirit of the Gospel, Numerous are the Societies which ore engaged in this work ; and tht ir enterprises of philanthropy at home and 1 - Ut - ad, wi’l form a grand feature in the history of’ na been entirely ntgt**ied. The same hand Vfiich has administered bread to the hungry and medicine to the victim of disease, has bestowed a still richer treasure in the Bible, and the means of religious instruction. The same spirit has qualified many for the work of the ministry, and sent the ambassadors of life to the distant pa gans. TJie savage has been turned —the Hotten tot has been restored to the dignity of a man—the Hindoo has abandoned his cast—and the islands of the sea forsaking their idols, have received the laws of Christ. Nothing, in the history of the world cau compare with thegu events. The phi losopher may well contemplate them with aston ishment, and the Christian with triumph; while the inquirer who is actuated by mere curiosity may read, with some degree of interest, the history of these modern wonders. • - But among ourselves, the majority a-"e compar atively uninformed in relation to the exertions of the Church, and the progress of the Gospel at the present day. Religious publications are hut little read ; and many who love the cause of Zion i are totally ignorant of the glory which she is ac- 1 quiring in other parts of the earth. Our ow n ex ertions for diffusing the light of life, would be more united and efficient, if the labours and suc cess of others were more frequently to pass in re view before us. A religious paper which should !go into general circulation, has long appeared to, us the great 11 desideratum.” u The Missiona ry” was undertaken with the hope of supplying the defect, flow far w have discharged the im portant duties of our posts, it rests not with us 1 but the pitbli.ck to determine.’ After struggling . through many difficulties, we this day present our readers with the last number of the second vol ume. On such occasions as this, we feel our selves at liberty to speak with freedom of our own I concerns ; at least so far as they sustain a rela ! tion to our patrons. The expense of our estab | lishment has been great, and when all the subscri bers who are chargeable with total delinquency, are stricken from the list, the sifiice will probably be left in debt. Finding this to be our situation j at the close of two years’ laborious occupation for the public.!:, anew arrangement has become indispensable. .Sued an arrangement has been made for the continuance of the paper. The.; whole establishment passes at the close of this week, into the hands of anew firm,.and the form .er proprietors wish for a settlement of their busi ness as soon us possible. The Editorial Depart ment will remain in the same hands as heretofore, and the paper will be conducted in every respect | on ‘the same principles as formerly. The propri- j etors have the strongest wish to maintain its mer-; it, and-to extend its circulation. In urder to ren der our political columns more acceptable to our’ readers, the paper will be issued on Wednesday! instead of Friday, as by this arrangement we shall 1 circulate news of a more recent date. I We once more make our appeal to the pub tlick. Without patronage, it is a clear case, that : our press cannot be supported. To Christians of the different denominations we ought not to ap ply in vain. Our paper is conducted, at it re spects the different sections of the Church, on the most enlarged and liberal principles. We venture to say, that no one from reading our col umns, can tell to what denomination we are at tached. Every paper we issue contains informa tion with which every Christian ought to he ac quainted ; —and will auy man who has been taught of heaven, and who professes to hold every thing in subordination to the prosperity of the Church, bring the paltry sum of three dollars a year into competition with tho vast amount of good which the circulation of such a paper may effect? For the support of such publications, the world, no doubt, has claims upon the Church ; and these claims vve could urge with more ener gy, and to better effect, were it not for the deli cacy cf our situation as a party concerned. We only ask how professors of religion who are in ; easy circumstances, and who believe 41 The Mis -1 sionary” calculated to be of great service to the j Church of Christ in the State of Georgia, can ‘withhold their support? That many do this even j iri the neighbourhood of the establishment, is too | palpable a matter of fact. j The man of general reading as well as the Christian, may find entertainment from our pages, jit has ever been, and still is our intention to i make 44 The Missionary,” to a certain extent, a ! Miscellaneous Journal, adapted as far as practi cable, to the taste and instruction of all, W’e j conclude the present volume and turn our 1 thoughts to the commencement of the uext, I cheered with the confident expectation that a j generous publick will not leave our Publication i to languish—will not suffer us to 44 labour in j vain,” i And plough the winter's tcare, and reap despair. MURDER. On Sunday, the 13th inst. a cruel and unnatural murder was perpetrated by a man named Daniel Wagnon.living in a part of Greene county, known by the name of Cracker’s Neck, upon the person of his wife, a woman of advanced age. The cir cumstances, as we learn, are these : Early in the morning he fastened the doors of his apartment, and having furnished himself ‘with a billet of wood, lie proceeded to the bed in which his wife was lying and struck her a severe blow upon the head. Tier screams avvxike a young man residing in the family, who instantly broke into the room : hut the fatal blow had been given ere he could arrest the ! arm of the wheeling monster, who ! coolly remarked, that he was sorry to experience any interruption until his purpose had been com pletely effected. Tie was immediately arrested, and lodged in jail. W r e have heard it mentioned that he had for some time exhibited symptoms of mental derangement. LITERARY. We remark that anew novel from the mint of the Author of Waved y, to he entitled the Rue ranters, is announced os in the British press. The title is of fine promise. A translation of Kenilworth into French appeared in Paris in the month of February. All the works of the same hand enjoy the greatest voguo in France. Foreign and DoSacstick Intelligence. Since oQr last, no additional advices have been received from Europe, GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. From the Recorder , May 15. The Legislature, having acted on the principal business introduced at this session, will adjourn in a day or two. The Land Bill, after some dis agreement between the two houses, which was finally adjusted by committees ol conference, has 1 become a law. It does not materially differ from the act* authorising the last lottery. Several other sects, generally of a private or local nature, have been passed at this session. Among those of publick interest we notice the repeal of a law passed some years ago, which imposed a penalty of twenty-five percent, on refusal of’ the State Bank to pay specie ; and an act prohibiting the sale of lottery ticket.-, except of lotteries author ized by the state, under a penalty of one hun j died dollars for each ticket sold. The Circuit Court of the (J. States,for the dis -1 trict of Georgia was held here during the last week—Judge Johnson presiding. ’there was, we are informed, much important business before the court—a decisitu made at this term, relating to the Bridge at Augusta, is likely, we understand to produce colli'iou between the Federal and State authorities. The Executive appointment of Thos. U. P. Charlton, as Judge of the Eastern Circuit, was last week confirmed by the Legislature. A resolution (says (lie Journal) has passed both branches of the Legis.uture, authorizing the peo ple to express on their tickets at the next gene ral election, their assent or dissent to the call of a convention to revise the constitution of this state. The resolution will be published in due season. Col. James Biair, David Terrill, Esq. James Alston, Esq. Dr. Thomis Moore, aud Peter La mar, Esq. were elected! commissioners to super intend the drawing of tlje fiand Lottery. Hezekiah Luokie, wllter Campbell, Edward Thomas, Charles Phillip;, John S. Porter, Drew rv Stokes, Jacob Mclendon, John Mcßride, Richard Kennon, and Jpn 11. Broadnax, Esqrs. were appointed surveyor to lay off the county and disir.ct lines. Mobile, April 3. Extract of a letter from Col. Santiago Mordella, of the Mexican army, operating in I'exus, to an oiiicer of the United States’ army at this place, dated Fort Bolivar, Jan. 19, 1821. “ 1 take this opportunity to acquaint you with our arrival at this fort, aud the commencing of our operations against the royalists, by taking trom them a fortification on the river Trin.dad, with four six pounders, and T6O prisoners, and 200 de serters of our standard; our loss was 12 killed, and 18 wounded. “ We expect some provisions froro the United States, and some officers with 900 men, and as i soon as they arrive we will march to St. Antonio. “ The day after tomorrow, I am going to take La Batiia de St. Dernatdo, defended by 200 men ! and 10 pieces; but the men, who are creoles, j are waiting for us to join our cause Gen. Cua-i lusse Victora who is 200 leagues from us, intends ! to fori i a junction with us as soon as we fortify St. Antonio, and march to the interiour, so be will form a diversion in our favour,and call the at- 1 tenlion of Gen. Arredondo’s army. Our force will then be 1-1,000 men, aud master of four pro- : vinces.” Arkansas, March 3. Gov. Miller returned to this place on Tuesday last,after an absence of more than three months; during a great portion of which time he has been engaged in holding Councils and Talks with the Cherokee and Osage Indians, and endeavouring to prevent the long expected rupture between them—but without effect. A deep rooted enmity has long existed between those Indians, and both parties have been qquaily eager for the bloody coinbat. Hostilities have been commenced for some time ; and as both are powerful nations, a long and sanguinary conflict may be expected. The Osages are said to be the strongest in point of numbers, but the Cherokees are much the best provided with arms and ammunition. We are in hopes of obtaining some further particulars rela tive to the Indians, which will be published in our next. March 17. Appointed. —The President of the U. States, witli the advice and consent of the Senate, has appointed Benjamin Johnson, Esq. of Kentucky, a Judge of the Superiour Court of the Territory of Arkansas. Osage Mission —We are happy to learn, that the Mission Family to the Osage Indians, arrived at the place of their destination, in safety and in general good health, on the 20th Feb. last. Their establishment is located on the Six Bull, opposite Spring Creek, and about 50 miles above the junction of the former with the Arkansas. They have six small buildings already erected and so far finished as to afford comfortable quar ters to the family. Fine Arts. —Another young American painter, we are extremely happy to announce, has com menced his career in Great Britian, with distin guished success. Mr. G. S. Newton, of this town, has recently produced a picture entitled, 44 The Importunate Author,” from the 44 les Fau eheux’ of Aloliere, and sent ; t to the British In stitution, Pall Mall, for exhibition. Ace ng an unusual variety of pictures, upon historical, po eticlc and inventive subjects —nearly all produced within the year, Mr. Newton’s held the highest roflk. It was purchased before the opening of the exhibition, in a very flattering manner, by Mr. Thomas Hope, author of Anaslatius ; but per haps better known us the possessor of one of the most magnificent galleries of paintings in England. Earl Grosvenor, a connoisseur, expressed his dis appointment: at being too late to be purchaser, and pronounced it more pleasing 44 than any modern picture he had seen for many years.” I he Morning Chronicle notices it as a piece of j rich design, full of mental expression and vivid humour—yet finished in strict accordance with nature. The F.xaminer, of Feb. 19th, edited by Mr. L. Hunt, expresses the following flattering though confused opinion: 44 G. S. Newton, a citizen of the American Re pubjjck, is the painter of the universally admired picture, No. 12.” It has the same want of finishing, while it is equally full of sensibility with his countryman’s, Mr. Leslie’s picture from the Spectator, in a re cent Royal Academy Exhibition,and lias as bright, it not a brighter charm of colours, approaching the splendid. The transparency and potency with which the crimson, purple, gold, and silter dresses of its two figures, give the fullest effect to the mind impressed, face and figure of the Author, as lie flings to the arm of his impatient companion —and to the latter, as he looks at his watch, in an appeal to time, in favour of his going from the egotistick aud troublesome author. Fhe subject is most clearly, vivaciously, and witli the above exception, satisfactorily told. After looking at a number of the other pictures, with our eyes oniy, we look at Mr. Newton’s witli an accompaniment of our hearts. Mr. Newton has it i,i contemplation to design bition,’ at Somerset House—(he #ubje!ff taken from Kenilworth. He also intend* | 0 pai ano ther picture from Moliere, and on* from Dante. f ßoston Inttiiig-.ncer. Yankee Ret.—.\ bet was made in Providence, R.

Extraordinary Preservation Extract of a let ter from a lady in Franklin, Missouri, of unques tionable veracity, to another in this neighbour hood, dated 23d February, 1821. “ Mr- lienj. F. Rogers, a native of Fayette county, Kentucky, and half brother to Dr. James Moss, late of Maysville, Ky. and his friend Mr. Carr, also from Fayette county, were on their re turn from Council Bluffs, as the cold weather commenced. Rogers was sick and weak; their progress was slow, and a fall of snow exhausted their horses, and they had to abandon them. 1 was told tbe snow was three feet deep. Their next attempt was to proceed by water, arid they went down the river until Mr. Rogers’ weak state of health, and the accumulating ice, determined to land and decide on Mr. R’s reinuinining until Mr. Carr would proceed to the settlement, and precure help to take him in. The settlement, or j inhabited part of the country, was one hundred and fifty miles distant, and they feared, as the weather was so cold, they might both perish, as i Mr. Rogers was too weak to proceed. The snow was raked off by his faithful friend, leaves gather - ied for a bed, wood to last to liis return, a fire kindled, powder left him to kindle his fire in case it should go out, a buffalo robe and a horse bkrnk ,et left him, and all the provisions they had, a i quart of corn. The friend took his leave, with a promise to return as soon as a man and horse 1 could be procured. The first night he (Carr) stopped, he -attempted io kindle a fire, but his powder was wet and he did not succeed; he had to beat about a tree to keephimcelf from freezing. In this manner he reached the settlement, and as soon as he could,‘with the necessary help, return ed to his friend. In the mean time a fall of snow happened. Thisadded to the ttifficofiy ot‘finding the place where he had left his friend. He’ thought it was near Cow Island, and spent many days in exploring, fearing Rogers had moved his ground. Not succeeding in Ids search, as he left him on the bank of the Missouri, he was deter mined to proceed higher up, and on the 21 ct day after he left him, he found him 40 or 50 miles from his first search, but where he had actually left him. He observed a rise of snow, (the snow was all over the ground) and many tracks of a wolf leading to it, and with a palpitating heart he went up to it, and saw a piece of buffalo robe ’ sticking out, and stooping down, discovered the shining eyes of his friend He was alive ! but his ; feet were much frozen. His fire bad given out and in attempting to make more, his powder blew up. He was afraid his friend had frozen and in ; despairing of life he rolled himself up in his buf j falo robe and lay down. He was eight days i without any kind of food, and was so exhausted, | that when the wolf stared him in the face, he w-as, not able to make any exertion or noise to drive him away. They got him safe into Hempstead. It was feared he would lore his feet, but Dr. B—y told me he would not even lose a toe ! Is not this a wonderful tale i—but nevertheless it is strictly true. I went to see him at the doctor’s in this place. I did not hear all the particulars from himself, as he was is much pain when l saw him, but I had it from the best authority. He acknow ledges the hand of God in his wonderful preser vation. It is a miracle! The last time I saw the doctor he told me he would soon be well ; that he would lose part of the flesh off of his great toes, but expected it would be replaced. Let no one in the most trying circumstances de spair of the mercy of God.” Charlottesville, Vir. April 27. Bloody Affair. —On Saturday last, a most trag ical affray between two men by the name of Ross and Moss, was witnessed at New Canton. Buck ingham County. VVe have had a verbal, and perhaps imperfect account of this affair. It seems that Moss made an observation in the presence of Ross, which somewhat offended the latter, who said to the former, if he repeated it he would shoot him ! Moss repeated the offensive expres sion, when the other unhesitatingly drew a pistol loaded with buck shot, and fired at his head I The shot entered his face in several places and wounded him severely ; he immediately retreat ed to a house a short distance off, procured a gun, returned and fired at Ross, who was on horseback, and gave him a mortal wound. The load entered just above the hip and lodged near the heart; Boss drew another pistol, and attempt ed again to file at Moss, but was so feeble, from the wound he had received, that he fell from his horse and expired in about two nr three hours. We have not been informed whether the noun I received by,Moss is considered mortal or not; hut from rumour, are inclined to believe the for mer to be the case. The result of this unhappy affair ought to serve as a caution to Q.oce, who sometimes suffer tin ir passion to conquer their reason, aud we hope it may never become our painful duty again to no tice an act so deliberate and so bloody.
