arc assuredly among the plainest injunctions of the
New Testament •, but in order to discharge this
duty we are not to neglect other and paramount
duties. Our property is the bounty of heaven,
a „d we are bound to use it in a manner most con
ducive to the honour and glory of our great Bene
factor. If Christians feel themselves solemnly
called upon to cast their mites into the treasury
of the Lord in aid of some object connected with
the spiritual welfare of the human family, who has
a right to complain ? And let the observation of
every candid man determine, whether those who
are led by the spirit of the Bible to contribute to
the advancement of religion are more likely to j
impoverish their households, than those who deny ]
its authority, or live totally regardless of its re-;
quirements ! There is something extreme j
)y suspicions attending the complaint, that the j
poor at home are neglected by those who send
the Gospel abroad ; and we fear this sudden
sympathy is in many persons too nearly allied to
the spirit manifested by Judas—“ Not that he car
ed for the poor,” but his wicked heart could not
endure the respect which was shewn to his Di
vine Master.
Ad act of crying injustice to the poor of this
confritry has lately been discovered by Mr. Niles,
the Register-man of Baltimore. He has just found
out that a subscription of S3OOO a year for five
years, has been raised in the opulent city of Bos
ton for the purpose of establishing a Printing Press
in Western Asia—and he has further ascertained’
that it has been done at the “ urgent recommen
dation of a late British Consul at Smyrna—mark
that, of a British consul at Smyrna I” A won
derful discovery indeed \ —and well worthy of this
lynx-eyed watchman over publick expenditures
and private charities. The truth is, this subscrip
tion was filled up more than twelve months ago ;
a [i(Han additional sum of three thousand dollars,
(to which an unknown individual in New York
contributed $500) was raised by donations, for
the purchase of Greek types, and for preparato
ry expenses. The success of Messrs. Parsons and
Fisk, our Missionaries to Jerusalem, in the distri
bution ofßibles, Tracts, School books, &c. and
the anxiety of the people whom they visited to re
ceive and read them, and not the “ urgent re
commendation of a British consul,” led to the
adoption of this measure. Our missionaries in
deed during their residence at Smyrna, spoke of
the kind reception which they experienced from
the British consul, and of the protection which he
afforded them in their journies through the coun
try. He was friendly to the cause in which they
were engaged, and knew in what deplorable ig
norance the inhabitants around him were involved
and perhaps expressed his “ earnest” wish
that a Printing Press might be established for
the multiplication of cheap and useful books in
the different languages spoken in that part of Asia.
But be probably will have as much control over
the contemplated press as Mr. Niles himself—and
no more. The superintendence of the press is in
trusted to Mr. Temple, the missionary to Western
Asia,who went out from this country some months
since. It will be established at Malta until the
affairs of Greece and Turkey become so arranged
as to justify a removal to its original destination.
We do not accuse Mr. Niles of wilfully discol
ouring the truth in tiiis case, for we brlieve he
took no pains to ascertain what were the real
facts. lie saw that a late British consul was nam
ed as friendly to the scheme, and his patriotism,
or pride, or jealousy became alarmed, and he im
mediately felt a remarkable sympathy fertile poor
people around him- We trust they profited by
l>i e liberality. It is to be hoped, however, for
the sake of truth and justice, that Mr. Niles takes
more pains to inform himself in regard to the ex
penditure of publick money than he has done in
the case before us; if we thought he did not, we
should as soon expect to see a defalcation fairly
exhibited in the National Intelligencer itself, as in
Mr. Niles’s Register.
We cannot dismiss the subject without remark
ing, that had this press been established to promote
any object of a purely political nature , such as
should accord with our republican sentiments,
Mr. iViles, as well as most other editors who have
copied his paragraph, would have doubtless ap
plauded the liberality of its projectors. They
would have told us, and told us truly, that Asia
is the abode of a cruel and iron-handed Despo
tism—that every attempt to enlighten the minds
of the inhabitants by the circulation of books and
newspapers among them should be be encouraged
hy the friends of freedom in every country, as
nothing would tend more directly to prepare the
way for ‘.he overthrow of Turkish tyranny, and
the establishment us civil liberty. But the object
no* it, to circulate the Sacred Scriptures—to ex
tindlthe pure and unadulterated religion of Jesus
Chrid! to unchain the fettered souls of millions
who are Dound down to unmeaning ceremonies
and degrading superstitions —in a word, to extend
th knowledge of the Gospel, in its purity, to those
v-p- reasons in which it was proclaimed by the
Sav-our himself-—Such is the object of the contem
plated printing establishment in Western Asia,
and yet it i. a subject of censure and ridicule in
this enlightened and Christian country 1 Tell it
not in Uath !
The following extract from the instructions of
the Prudential Committee to Mr. Temple, in re
gard to the management of the press, we submit
to our readers, and leave them to draw their own
conclusions:
By/fbe liberality of a few individuals you carry
a Press, consecrated to the dissemination ot di
vine truth through a vast region, now lying in ig
norance and spiritual death. As the manner in
which this design originated marks an advance
ment in charitable exertions of the noblest kind—
and as the success which attends the enterprise,
may- have a great influence upon plans of the same
genera! character hereafter; —you will consider a
discreet, yet active and efficacious use of the press,
u subject of high importance, not toyour mission
on hut to the cause of missions and Chris
ti. tty. ....
Who does not know that the art of printing is
the greatest of human inventions? If regarded
inert ]y as an instrument of refinement and civili
zt'inn, —of intellectual improvement, —and of
see wing and preserving liberty, the highest strains
of eloquence would be poured forth in its piaise.
But it is destined to a nobler use than any which
is confined in its operation to this world. Next
I to the living voice of the earnest and affectionate
I preacher, itis to become the most powerful mean
I of diffusing the knowledge of the Gospel, of awa-
I kening a dead world te spiritual life, and of glo
rifying God by honouring the revelation of his
will. How small are the objects of orators and
poets—of moralists and legislators,compared with
the renovation and salvation of a single soul? VV’hat
are the embellishments of human society, the grat
ification of curiosity, or of taste, to a mind deep
ly intent on recovering a lost world to God and
holiness, —on raising up, from the ruins of the
apostasy, heirs of immortality, children of God,
trophies of the Redeemer’s sacrifice ? To estab
lish the liberties of a nation, is deemed a great
achievement; and so indeed it is, comparing
merely temporal things with each other. How
great a cause of exultation is it, then, to liberate
immortal beings from the bondage of sin, and
lead them forth from their prison house to the en
joyment of pure and lieuveuly freedom? To this
high and holy ministration the press will hereaf
ter be more devoted than it has ever yet been.
The time will arrive when it shall be no more the
pander of vice, the apologist of crime, the incen
tive to pollution, the instrument of sophistry and
errour. In those favoured days, holiness to the
lord will be inscribed, as with a sun-beam, on
every page.
So far as you may be intrusted with the man
agement of the mission press, let this sublime des
tination be held continually in view. Let it be
your constant aim, that when the truths of religion
are professedly taught, nothing but pure, plain,
simple truth should be found; evangelical truth,
unsophisticated by human additions, unimpaired
by retrenchments, the suggestions of human wis
dom,unincumbered with human philosophy in any
form, but supported by the veracity of God, and
certainly to be accomplished by his power and
his faithfulness. Let your standard be high in
regard to the purity and tendency of whatever
you permit to be published. We have no fears,
indeed, that you, or your brethren, will ever con
sent, that a press furnished in so disinterested a
manner, and for so excellent a design, should be
desecrated, by being applied to any unworthy
purpose. It is not enough, however, that positive
evil be avoided ; let eminent good be done. Let
the character to which you aspire in this depart
ment of your labours be such, that, could you be
transported, by a happy anticipation, into the
full blaze of the millenial day, you would have no
occasion to blush for the motives which prompted
or the effects which followed your publications.

Richmond, Oct. 12.
On Monday last, the day of Albemarle Court,’
Thomas Jefferson , James Madison, and James
Monroe , with several outer distinguished citizens,
attracted by various eugagemeuts, attended at
Charlottesville. It is an agieeable spectacle to i
I see such men meeting together, and mingling with- i
out any parade with the inass of their country
men. None of that absurd pomp which attends
a royal trip to Dublin or to Ldiuburgh ! No po
litical purpose drew these gentlemen together—
but the holy cause of Education. The two ex*,
presidents and the present President, are visiters
j to the University of Virginia—lor whose interests
they were collected.— Family kisiler.
Marriage. —At the late extra session of the le
! gislature of Tennessee, an act was passed to
I amend the laws concerning marriages. No white
j man to intermarry with a negro, mulatto, or mus
! tee, or any person of mixed blood, bond or free,
! till the third generation, under the penalty of
$500; no minister of the gcspel or justice to mar
ry such persons, under tlie penalty of SSOO ; and
! the said pretended uiarriajes so celebrated, shall
be null and void. If any white man shall live
with a negro, &c. as a mai and wife, he shall for
! feit 500 dollars, and shall 3e indicted in a circuit
or county court, and punished at the discretion of
] the court ; no clerk shall issue such license un
der the penalty of 500 dollars, and be subject to

Singular Luck in lilt Matrimonial Lottery , Ac.
—Two noted rogues and established dealers in
counterfeit money, both in the wholesale and re
tail way, were committed, a few days since, one
for passing, and the other for having in possession
with intent to pass certain quantities of spurious
bills. One of them (it came out on the examina
tion) was the third husband of a woman who has
two husbands in the State Prison for different
offences. The first of them was there for dealing
largely in counterfeit money, and the other for
grand larceny. What the hymeneal ballot-box
is next to yield her, (for she is young enough, and
interesting enough to adventure half a dozen
times more yet, if she dare, with the experience
she has had, to put in her hand again) time must
determine.— N. F. paper.

Grand Jury Presentment. —The Grand Jury of

HER MON SEMINARY.
THE Trustees again notify the publick that
they intend to keep this institution con
stantly open for the reception of pupils. Herman
1 is seven miles from Lexington, in the most heal
thy part of the country. The government of the
inhabitants of the town, so far as relates to their
moral couduct, is vested in the Trustees of the
] Seminary. They are not ashamed to avow that
j it is their intention to blend religious instruction
] with the classical studies which are usually taught
1 in academies ; confident that this course will se
] cure the patronage of those parents who desire
i the prestnt respectability and future happiness
\of their children. Their rates of tuition are low,
and all indigent pupils will receive instruction
1 gratuitously. There are several lots in town yet
unsold, and they respectfully invite those parents
who are desirous to place their children in a
school of this character, to call and examine for
themselves.
A classical teacher, who can come well recora
mended, would receive immediate employment.
One will be wanted the ensuing year. The sala
ry is perhaps as good as in any similar institution
in the State. The trustees will receive applica
tions till the 23d December next.
