MOUNT ZION, MONDAY, SEPT. 12,1325.
When the Great Apostle to the Gentiles is so
frequently seen humbling himself at the feet of
Jesns, and elevating him far above all principali
ties and powers and every other name that either
heaven or earth contains—the question naturally
arises. What rank did Christ occupy in his affec
tions—What mysterious excellencies centre in his
name—What sphere does he 6)1 in the universe
of GnrJ—What gradation among created or uncre
ated intelligences does he hold? It must he ac
knowledged, that to exalt Christ—to hold him up
to all intelligent creation as an object worthy to
be adored and hlessed and praised—as the only
refuge tor guilty, condemned, dying man, consti
tuted a principal part of all the Apostle’s efforts.
Christ and him crucified Christ and the resurrec
tion Christ and everlasting glory through faith in
his name, was the continued object of his trium
phant song. “God forbid,” he cried, “ that. I
should glory save in the cross of our Lord Jesus
Christ, by whom the world is crucified un'o me,
nnd I unto the world.” It is indeed somewhat
remarkable that so much should be said of Christ
by this Apostle, in language so plain and explicit,
and.yet that there should remain a doubt in the
mind of any intelligent person, in relation to his
true nature and offices. As Christ thought it no ‘
robbery to be equal with God, so Paul hesitates
not to say that he was God manifest in the flesh ;
and though Jehovah has said that he trill not share
lets glory with another , yet Paul is permitted to
say, and that too by the Spirit of God, 44 Grace j
be to you, and peace from God the Father and i
from the Lord Jesus Christ—thus connecting the !
Father and the Son, in the prayer for that gift ;
which is the greatest of all, and without which, j
we must all inevitably perish—and thu alogiv-(
ing the same glory to Christ which is given to the
Father, lie not, only prays for grace and peace,
but blesses God, even the Father of our Lord Je
sus Christ, the Father of mercies, for the comlort
which his people receive in their tribulations.—
Nay, he calls those very tribulations the suffer
ing/ of Christ abounding in us —and that comfort
.he call, oitf consolation abounding by Christ. —
Now if Christ be both God and man, the mystery
is solved at once. Otherwise it will be exceeding
ly difficult to exempt Paul from the charge of idol
atry. If Christ is a proper object of religions wor
ship, he must be God, otherwise none can bend
to him a suppliant knee without performing an
idolatrous act. God will be worshipped, and
God only . No created intelligence, though he
were as much higher than Gabriel Gabriel i
higher than a worm, is entitled to religious wor
ship. “Thou shall worship the Lord thy God,
and him only shalt thou serve,” is that nnrepealed
and irreversible law—nnrepealed and irreversible
in its very nature, that forbids it. It then follows
ihat Paul was an idolater, and all Christians are
idolaters that do worship Christ, unless Christ is
God —one with the Father—the same in sub
stance, power and glory. But the fulness of the
Godhead is said to dwell in Christ bodily. W hat
does this mean ? It must mean something and
ws should be disposed to cry out with one of old,
” Paul, thou art beside thyself; much learning
doth make thee mad,” were we not assured that
he spake the words of 44 truth and soberness,”
and that he spake them too not as one who dwells
in hyperbole, but precisely as he was taught them
by the spirit of God. Would we interpret Scrip-’
tare, we must employ Scripture for that purpose,
—lay it side by side—consider what is spoken in
accordance to (he limited and feeble capacities oi
man, and then form our creed. But if Christ is
taken from the Scriptures, what are they ?
There is salvation in no other name—tin believ
er’s hope must perish—the rock on which he built
is removed—and there is nothing but a fearful
looking-for of judgement and fiery indignation
which shall devour him. The Christ of the Scrip
tures is indispensable to salvation. Bui were he
a created being, though as much taller than the
tallest of those Seraphim that sing and shine in
the presence of God, os that Seraph is taller than
the meanest insect, God could in an instant pro
vide another Saviour—Christ could not he indis
pensable to salvation. Besides if he is only a cre
ated Being, he is only an instrument in the hands
of God, and shall the instrument receive equal
honour with its author? But what beauty—what
harmony—what consistency—what suitableness
do we discover in the plan of salvation through
Jesus Christ, who thought it not robbery to he
equal with God, yet made himself of no reputa
tion and took upon him the form of a servant and
became obedient unto death, even the death of
the cross. 44 Thanks be to God for his unspeak
able gift.”
ORDINATION.
The Rev. George Foot war ordained as all
■Evangelist by the Presbytery of Hopewell, on the
2d itist. at Vloniicello. The sermon wa preach
ed by the Rev. B. Gildersleeve from Coloasiar.s
jv, 17. —“ And fay to Archippus.take heed to the
ministry which than hast received in the Lord
that thou fulfil it.” Rev. J. Brown, D.D. presi !
ded and gave The, charge A large majority of
the congregation had neier witnessed the solemn
transaction of setting apart to the work of the
Mini-try an “ earthen vessel.” by the laying on of
the hands of the Presbytery. To them it was a
new, and to all an interesting; scene. Mr. Foot
calculates to divide his labours as he has hereto
fore done, between Monticello, Hillsboro’ and j
Clinton.
New Religious Paper. —Proposals have been
issued for publishing a religious paper in Fayette
ville, N. C. to be called the “ North Carolina
Telegraph,” and conducted by the Rev. Robert
H. Morrison. It is to be neatly printed on a large
sheet, and will be afforded at $2 50 in advance,
or $3 at the expiration of the y ear. No paper of
this description is now published in the State,
although several are supported in Stales much in
feriuur to North Carolina in point of wealth and
population. The prospectus engages that it shall
be an 44 impartial advocate of Christian doctrine 1
and vital piety,” and we trust it may meet with
the success which such a publication merits.
Catholick Emancipation —A British Journal
has furnished a singular analysis of the vote in t
House of Lords on this important question, by
which it appears that a majority of the young
lords were in favour of emancipation, nnd the
number above sixty years of age, two to one
against it, and from this fact the inference is drawn
that in a few years the measure will be carried in
the House of Lords, the strength of the opposition
being in men whose opinions belong to the last
century. It is added in support of this conclusion,
that after the celebrated Harvey had demonstra
ted the circulation of the blood, no physician then
living,-above 40 years of age, would believe in
the doctrine,
Etfe of Bonaparte, —A London literary work

New Colton. —On Monday last a load of New
Cotton of seven bales, was received at V'e-srs.
Heard & Cook’s warehouse—it was made on the
plantation of Gen. Taylor, of Burke county.—
It was, we understand, of excellent quali'y,
and was handled and picked in that neat and
carefuFmauner which is usual, we are told, with
ibis gentleman. It exhibits aline presage of this
year’s production; and we hope iu the quantity
and quality of the article, this year’s crop may
equal the general expectation. This load was
not sold, and we cannot, therefore, state from it, ‘
the price at which the new crop opens.

Duel —A duel has been fought in Paris between
Count Segnr and Gen. Gourgand, in which both
were slightl\ wounded—the former in the ami,
and the latter in the body. The seconds inter

The quarrel arose from some expressions in the
Count’s narrative of the Russian campaign under
Napoleon, which Gen. Gourgand considered too
personal, and therefore demanded satisfaction.
Gen. Lafayette. —The ‘Seneca Farmer,’ of
the 10th tilt corrects the report of Gen. Lafay
ette’s having sent the widow of capt. Parsons S7OO
immediately after tiie unfortunate death of that

1 Curious Box —A bos has been presented to gen.
Lafayette, at Germantown, composed of five
1 different kinds of Wood, as follows :
The Box is tnrne<Lfrom a piece of Black Wal
nut, which (ill 181* was a living Forest Tree,
standing in front of the Hill of Independence,
and had been with other like Trees there the con
temporaries of William I’enn and the first settlers
of Philadelphia. That Group formerly served as
imposing and appropriate conductors to that ven
erable building, when standing as it formerly did
at the utmost verge of (My Population. When
Richard Penn visited Philtdelphia and was shown
these last living vestiges qf his great Progenitor’6
day, he burst into a flood 1 of tears. The interest
to be afforded by this Webd now is, that it is the
last of all the Forest Race, so near the city. The
four sections of the circle on the lid ureas follows,
to wit:
The Sweet Gum, is anolher Tree of the Forest
Race of Penn’s day, arid the last present living
trees so near (he City, (save an F.leni-stiU standing
at the N. W. corner cf Schuylkill seventh and
Race-street,) it being one of the three or four now
standing on the northern side of Vine-street, in
front of Bush Mill. Such facts as these tend pow
erfully to impose upon our consideration the won
derfully rapid growth of our An erican cities from
i the rude Sylvan, to the embellished city state.
The Oak is a piece of the lop log of a hutment
wharf, (now standing to tell) located at the junc
tion of Hudson’s Alley and Chesnnt-street, m the
year IGB3, and then appertaining to the first
’ Bridge ever made over Duck Creek. Under
j this Bridge, replaced by a stone one in 1699. ves
sels loaded with wood used to go up to (he “cora
-1 mon landing’’ at the junction of High anil foutrh
sti eet. The present piece of wood was found six
feet under the present surface, in 1823.
The Elm is of the celebrated “ Treaty Tree,”
of Shackuiiiaxiinri, which bbw down in 1810, and
a Scion of which is again flourishing, (like <he re
produciion of the fabled Phoenix,) in the western

The William Wallace. —WV have been favour
ed with the perusal of a letter (rom a passenger
in this ship, whose wreck we announced iri our
last, from which we collect the following particu
lars, which may be deemed interesting;
After a favourable run of five days, when most
of (be passengers were asleep and others anxious
ly expecting to hail the Light at Sandy Hook
early next morning, the ship suddenly, and un
expectedly was discovered to be surrounded by
breakers, and striking her bottom heavily on the
beach at every surge of the sea. In fifteen min
utes from the time of striking the shore, the main
and mizen masts were cut away, and the ship re
duced to a complete wreck. The night was ex
cessively dark and stormy, and the ship soon bilg
ed and filled fast. At this time the passengers
had abandoned all hope of reaching shore unless
bv swimming, as such was the violence of the
surf, neither of the boats coilld have lived in it.
They however suffered themsflves to be govern
ed by the captain’s advice, and remained by the
vessel until day-break, in a itafe of the utmost
anxiety and alarm. It was a fortunate circum
stance that the ship drove ashore at high water,
as the ebb tide between five arid six in the morn
ing had left the vessel suffuSently high on the
beach to enable the passengers to wade ashore.
After some search, twenty or thirty miserable
looking fishermen were found, who, it is mention
ed, live partly by the plunder *f such unfortunate
beings as are thrown in their way, and who after
much entreaty and many threats, aDd the most
abominable extortion, at list consented to assist
the passengers on their way, by means of an ox
cart, as far as Great Egg Harbour, whence they
proceeded as before stated, to Philadelphia.
The ship lies about five miles north of the Har
bour, and will go to pieces. The cargo, consist
ed of only 30 bales of cotton, and 100 casks rice.

Police Office. —On Monday, a young man, in
the garb of a sailor, having but one arm, was
! brought up by a watchman, charged with break
| ing the peace, by firing a pistol, being inloxicat
ed, and otherwise disturbing tie neighbourhood ;
he admitted himself to he an old convict, and, in
answer to questions put by the Mayor, that he
had recently entered the Pennsylvania Hospital
as a patient, with an information communicated
to the Surgeons that he had taken a large dose of
I arsenick, when to his great suiprise, and much
against his will, the medical gentlemen of (be es
tablishment pumped out the contents of bi c sto
mach, and washed it as clgan as a platter: (such
are the wonderful improvements of modern Sur
gery) this of course was done in the most appro
ved style, but, as the patient became surprisingly
better, and no arsenick or laudanum appeared in
. the operation of pumping, he became at once
j suspected of some improper jurp6e in entering
! the house, which was grealy increased by the
circumstance of two suspicicus persons coming
very late in the evening, to cbtain the favour ot
sitting up with the patient dtring the nigh* ; this
j was of course refused, and the patient himself,
I watching his opportunity, brke out f the house
at midnight, aud made his escape much lighter
1 than when he came in, instead <d being loaded
with plunder, as he probably anticipated. He
I admitted having giveu currency to this incomprc-,
11 ensible ile, but denied the inference drawn ffcm
it ; said be was .punished enough already by being
1 pumped nearly to death, ii and that he would nev
er regain his right taste after swallowing the Doc
j tor’s infernal doses in rinsing out Ids stomach.
! The Mayor ordered him a calendar mouth at hard

1 sent to Arch-st. prison, where he swore he would
i rather remain a y ear by the heels than again he
| pumped and swabbed out in the Hospital for an

The Cbilicothe Supporter, in what some will
denominate these dull piping times of peace, at

paper, demanding from him, arid declaring that
lie received Ingii authority su to do, thu sum of
$350 The Editor puts on a grave lac eat his de
mands— asserts the low state of his funds, and
makes the following proposal in return
“As we do not wish, however, to be thought
unreasonable, we will make our correspondent a
fair offer. The sums due our establishment ex
ceed the totni amount of what we owe, whether
principal or security, in the proportion ol upwards
of five to one. Now, if Gabriel will so contrive j
i as to enable IIS to liquidate the latter with the
former, and without the sacrifice of any of our
property, within a twelve month from this date,
we will assign liter to him in full property, as ma

CURE FOR A SNAKE BITE.
The following communication is extracted from
the ‘lndiana Whig': —As the public in the vves.
tern country are much interested in knowing
whatever may be a good remedy for the poison
injected in the human flesh by the bite of a snake.
1 think it my duty to state a fact within my own
knowledge. About the year 1815 or 16, one of
my children was bitten by a copperhead, on the
inside of both the ancles, nearly at the same in
stant. I immediately procured pulverized char
coal, and mixed it with as much hogs lard as
made it adhere. I then made a plaster of it, and
applied it to the wounds, renewing the plaster eve
ry twenty or thirty minutes, for ten or twelve
hours, at the saute time giving the child fresh milk
to drink. 1 his remedy had the desired effect,
and very little pain was endured after the first ap
plication. Not more than five minutes elapsed
Iron, the time the child was bitten until the cure
was applied, and in that short time, so violent
was the advance of the poison, being near a blood
vessel, that its tongue was much swollen, and
green matter vomited by the child; but the ef
fect of the antidote was nearly as instantaneous
as the poison. Several of in) neighbours in the
vicinity of Newport, near Blairsville ill this coun
ty, can attest the above facts.
