Tiiia anssjbHArj, MOUNT ZION, MONDAY, OCT. 3, 1825. Christ is more frequently end more deeply wounded in the house f hie friends than bis pro fessed followers are apt to imagine. Between the existing branches of the Church, there is a jea lousy which prevails, if not to the total extinction of real Christian charity, to the exclusion of that oordial fellowship which ought to be cultivated and cherished amoug members of the same family arid heirs ot the same kingdom. It never should he forgotten that the Church of Christ is one, however diversified its branches, or the materials of which it is composed. And it becomes the duty ol all its members to study its peace, its pu purity, its unity, its object, and carefully avoid giving offence to any, even the least—lest they should incur the frown of Heaven upon their own souls. The first and only question to be settled is, in what light the different branches of what is called file Christian Church, are to be held ? As belonging the true Church of Christ—or to the synagogue of Satan ? If in the judgement of Chris tian charity, they are considered among the ran somed of ihe Lord, why feel a jealonsj at their success, even if they do nut in any respect “follow with us?” There is much “wood and hay and stubble” that will be burnt up—much dross iu the purest gold, that is to be consumed, and in what church can we look for spotless purify and perfection in its doctrine and discipline? “All oome short of the glory of God.” Every thing in which frail human nature is connected must ne cessarily be imperfect. We ought then, to for bear judging , “that W'e be not judged,” and re member that “the same measure we mete will be measured unto us.” The fact that we are engaged in the same cause, and are striving to promote thosnme glorious ob ject, should induce us “ to be helpers of each oth ’ er’sjuy.” But if we bite and devour one anoth er, wt should take heed lest we he devoured one of another. Is a brother a Baptist, a Methodist, a Presbyterian or an Episcopalian, and does he exhibit the meekness and humility and zeal of a Christiau ? The name by which he is distinguish ed should he forgotten in the fact that he “ is a fellow citizen of the saints ami of the household of God.” There will be no distinctions in Heaven, only as superior piety will lift some nearer the throne, and give them more increased cup of bliss than others. Why, then, have distinctions upon ihe earth. 1 Or if they be necessary for the “ edifiemion of the body of Christ,” let us not widen them —But pray that the watchmen on Zion’s walls may see alike—may fee! alike—may forget names and titles, and he absorbed in the only grand objects worthy of (heir toil, the glory of Go.I and the salvation of souls. They who are called by the name of Christ, should eter remember that they are few— and that united efforts are necessary to ensure suc cess. Let them unite and they are a host—divide them and Zion is speedily laid waste. The world takes advantage of these divisions to reproach the name of Cliri*l. Those who feel the spirit of their Master are disheartened, and they can do little else than weep over the ruins of the church— Oh. that another spirit may prevail, and that a spirit of love, of meekness, of forbearance, cp faith unfeigned, of simplicity, of Godly sincerity —“ then shaii our light go forth as brightness, anil the salvation of the Lord as a lamp (hat burnetii.” Presbyterian Camp Meeting will be held at the Indian -Springs, commencing oil Thursday’ the 27th October. ——“ LIVERPOOL MARKET , Aug. 16.

H “ Our cotton market at the beginning of last Week was thrown into a state of great alarm, by He failure of two extensive houses in the Charles- Un and Savannah trade, and whose stocks of cot- IjMpn are large. About 6000 bags belonging to one them, and pledged in .he hands of Brokers, THWfere immediately declared for sale by auction >.n HKe 12th Our prices became quite nominal; but evening of the 10tt. a purchase of 8000 rH speculation, made by one or (wo parties, infaip firmness into the market again. In this instance, a'decline of Id per ib. had been submitted to, and there sopn appeared to he ma ny purchasers on the same terms—but some ad vance again was obliged to be giveu. The public sale of the 12th, was well attended, and went off with spirit, the trade being the chief buyers. — There was afterwards a pretty good demand, part ly on speculation—and at the close of the week the depression in prices which had taken place in 1 the early part of it, was fully recovered. The total sales in the course of the week were 19,900 bags, of which, 4000 Egyptian, 3500 Brazil, 2500 American were taken on speculation, and some further quantity has been taken on speculation. l not yet reported pnblickly. Our imports amoun \ ted to 26,700 bag*, of which 16 000 were from ! the United States, and a good many vessels have come in, which swell our import list again for this week. These continued heavy arrivals tend much to keep down the markets, while the neces | sities of many of the holders produce at the same time, too much disposition to sell, otherwise the present would have probably had more effect up !on our price. We quote upland.s at Bto 11 l-2d dug. 16th—There was a fair demand for cot ton yesterday,—about 3000 bags were sold, —half of which, was taken on speculation, by the same parties who bought before, and consisting chiefly of American. There is ag.ain a fair inquiry thii morning. An estimate of the stock of Cotton in the ports of Great Britain, shews it to be 183,000 bags less than in January last. A rise, therefore, may be expected in a few months. From. Ike X. Y. Observer of Sept. 17. Latest from Greece. —The accouuts received by the arrivals from Europe during the past week are very encouraging to the friends of the Greeks. Notwithstanding the temporary success of Ibra him Pacha, it appears that at the latest dates he was in a very critical situation, and we should not be surprised if the next arrivals should bring us intelligence of the destruction of ail Ihe forces under his command. It seems that soon after the capture of the fortress of Navarino, which i9 near the S. W. extremity of the Morea, Ibrahim at tiie head of his army marched into the interior in a N. E. direction to Tripolizzac, which is in the centre of the peninsula, and succeeded with out much difficulty in capturing the place, the Greeks retreating before him. Meeting with lit tle resistance, he continued his march in a N. E. direction completely across the peninsula to Na poli de Romania, at the head of the gulf of Na poli on the eastern coast. Here, however, lie was checked in his career by the brave Ypsilanti, who made a bold and successful resistance, ami by Colocolroni, who having raised ,a considerable hojy of Greeks, fell upon the rear of the Egyp tian army on the 16th of June, and killed 300 men. On (he 17th the Egyptians coimneuced ttu ir retreat. On the 20th they sustained fresh losseo near Tigea. By this time the army of Co locotroni had increased to 16,000 men. On the 241 h, Ibrahim sustained a now defeat, and was soon after so completely surrounded iu the defiles of (he interior of the Morea, that it was thought it would he difficult if not impossible for hjiu to reach the sea coast. General Roche, who was sent to Greece by the committee at Paris, to obtain information re specting the state of affairs, writes from Argos, on the 2d auiy, that all the Peloponnesus had risen in a mass, and that the Egyptian army was anni hilated. “ Nevtr was a popular movement,” lit says, “ mure terrible and more just, for the life or death of a population of 400,000 souis Was at stake.” These account? which were received by the way of England, are confirmed by a letter dated July 20, received at Boston, directly from Leg horn, which mentions ihe receipt of a despatch from Colocolroni to (lie Greek Senate, in which lie says that he lias so encircled Ibrahim Pach. iliat he will be in a few days compelled to sur render. With this prisoner, says the writer of the letter, the Greeks will b<- able to repay the loan iu England, as Ibrahim is immensely rich, independent ot his father. Verbal report lias been received at Leghorn on the 1 Jth of August, of the capture of Ibrahim Pa cha. The accounts were brought by ‘he masters of two vessels, one of whom had spoken a Greek man of war, and been told (hat the Turkish chief was carried to Hydra. The other came from Cyprus, where he said the rumour of his capture was current. Accounts from Corfu, to the Gtb of July, state that Redschkl Pacha had been compelled to raise the sirge of Missoloriglii, in consequence of a sor tie of the garrison, by which he experienced, it is ioid, a very considerable lass. On the water, success has uniformly attended the Greeks. The writer of the letter from Leg horn says— •‘Admiral Miaulis is now before Suda, (on tbe coast of Candia) with fifty Grecian ships and ten brulots. He has written to the Senate that he will perish, or destroy the whole of the squad ron inSudu. This is composed of about 50 Egyp tian vessels, 27 Turkish vessels, which escaped from the destruction of the Turkish squadron neai Athens, and 15 or 13 belonging to the Algerines and Tunisians, iu all about 90 to 100 sail of ship* of war and transports. Modon, Coron, and Pa tras, are so closely blockaded, that not a fishing boat can enter or escape. On board of the 37 Turkish vessel? brought into Hydra, Were 45 Aus trian officers, who, it is nid, were put to death. The other vessels, nearly 60, were burnt or driv en on shore. In those taken were found im inense quantities of provisions, ammunition, and clothing. Among these were 2000 barrels of powder.” General Odysseus, who was in prison in the citadel at Athens, awaiting the determination of ihe Gieek Government with regard to his t'ate, made an unsuccessful attempt to escape by a rope ovor the wall, which broke, and caused bis imme diate death. If he had lived a few days, he would have been included iu the general pardon. Extraordinary exertions are making in N. York, for celebrating, in the most imposing manner, the ! meeting of the Atiantick and Erie seas, through | the- Grand -State Canal. The 20th of October has been assigned for (he event, and it is proposed that a splendid celebration shall take place on that day. A meeting has been held in the city of New York, to concert measures for the pur pose, when it whs proposed to station cannon at short intervals from Buffalo to Sandy Hook, so’ that Ihe entrance of the first boat from the Lake into the Canal may he aunuuced throughout the State by one grand feud joie. When the boat enters the Hudson, at Albany, it is proposed I hat ‘he be received by a flee*, of steamboats, embrac i itig all ihat ply upon the New York waters; and ; that she be escorted in triumph to Sandy Hook, \in full view of the broad ocean. It is supposed \ that fifty steamboat* will volunteer on the occa ! sion, nil of which are to be superbly decorated 1 with flag*, emblems, and devices. On entering (he ba; of N.

A little respite from the duties of our profes sional labours, gave us an opportunity of visiting the Baptist Association, held recently at Gil Gal, Edgefield District, where we wifnesed the as semblage of something like two thou*and people, | composed principally of members.

The principal periodical journal of Hayli is mentioned with great respect by some of the Lon don editors.

He instantly interfered, bul the murderers, not being inclined to relinquish their prey, proceded to blows, and the Colonel, who was an excellent swordsman, laid two of his assailants dead on the spot, and drove the other twj from the house, se verely wounded—he himself received some slight wounds, and a ball grazed lis cheek. The old Jew and his daughter were profuse in their thanks, -and tlie Colonel at their rsqnest, made their house his head-quarters during the period his re giment remained in W ilna. On the return of the remnant of the French army, oppressed with fa tigue, want, and disease, the worn-out soldier in rags, sought the dwelling of thd Jew, and with difficulty was recognised, so completely changed was his appearance. Every service that active benevolence and gratitnde could prompt was in stantly exerted—the Jew, his daughter and house hold, wept over him, watched his bedside, nursed him with the fondest care, and when the Russians entered, kept him concealed till he yas perfectly recovered. The Jew then completely furnished his wardrobe, and contrived to send him through the hostile armies to France. At the peace, the . Colonel was obliged to retire on a miserable pit tance, which an aged mother and a sister shared. He had forgotten the Jew at Wilna, when, one evening, in the spring of 1816, a man called at I his humble abode in the suburbs of Paris, and hav- j ing satisfied himself as to his identity, placed in i bis hands a package, and vanished, On opening it, the Colonel found bills Qn a banker in Paris to the amountof £ 5,Q00, witb the following note:— “ Hz, whose daughter you preserved from a bru tal ravisher, whose life you saved, and whose! house you protected from plunder, at the imrne- j diate risk of your own existence, sends you an j humble offering of his gratitude, in the hope it j may be useful to you, and which he can spare | from the ample means he possesses—tbe only re- ] turn be requires is, that if ever hereafter, you bear the Jews contemned,you will say that one of that race knew how to be grateful.” The sequel is still more extmordinaiy. Tlie Old Jew died at Vienna—his daughter,the heiress of his immense wealth, the largest portion of which was in the French funds, vi.-ited Pari*: — it was natural she should seek the brave mau who had preserved her from the worst of fates, and with no common emotion*, he found the young girl he had prot?q‘.cd, new a blooming and beau tiful Iwcman, and grateful as she was engaging.

DIED. On Sabbath evening, 26th Sept. Isaac M. ; Wai.es, Esq. formerly one of the Editors of this paper, aged 50. Mr W. was a n:.ti ve of Connec ticut, and belonged to one of the first classes that ’ graduated at Yale, under the Presidency of the 1 venerable Dr. Dwight, in which institution his fa (ther was al*o a Professor. He was bred to tin- I law, and followed that profession-till his removal jto the South in 1816. when he relinquished it for j pursuits more congenial to bis own feeliugs. In |Ms disposition he was. remarkably arniabie and | conciliating. His mind, naturally discriminating, j had become richly furnished on almost all sub ! jects of a general and political nature, and he | had the remarkable faculty of speaking bis own i sentiments without giving any offence to those 1 whose opinions differed from his. His conduct was exemplary. He remembered tliab be was n j Christian, and appeared to act in reference to the i judgment day. As Chri*t had forgiven him, so | he forgave others, nor did lie “ let the sun go down upon his wrath.” In every benevolent institu . lion he was active to the exteut of his abilities, and (tie very Sabbath before he died, he superin | tended tlie Sabbath School in this place, which j owed its origin principally to his exertions. On ! Monday he attended his school several miles from tLis place, but returned to bis family on Wednes | day, with a fever of a most malignant type. As | he was sinking, his friends asked him what be | thought of death, to which he replied, “ I do not ] dread it—Christ is to me infinitely preciou*—l | know in whom I have believed.” In such a case ! as this, “ why do we mourn departing friends ?” i There is infinite gain to those whom Christ causes thus to triumph over deutii.

Both were blessed with pious mo thers, who carefully instructed them in the prin ciples of the Christian religion. Mr. Parker, two weeks before his death, gave the most satisfactory evidence of a change of heart, and earnestly in treated his friend Mr. Boardman, who visited him during part of his sickness, and followed hi* re mains to the gram—to prepare immediately to meet his God by repentance for sin and faith in (lie Lord Jesus. Their hearts, he observed, had been knit together like those of David and Jona than, and he earnestly desired (hat they might be brothers in Christ. His admonitions appear to have had an effect, for Mr. B. expressed at that time a deep sense of bis sins, and was distressed because he could feel no more ; and the night be fore he died, he gave to a clergyman that visited him tlie same evidence of his being prepared lor the solemn change that awaited him. Both of these young gentlemen died much regretted.— (’heir uniformly excellent conduct had secured them many friends in a land of strangers ; and the Academies of which fhey were Rectors, have sustained no common loss.

Brooking, of this county, who departed this life on Sunday evening ihe 11th ult. in the 16th year of her age, after a short illness of four days. The sudden de parture of such a child, at such an age, is a loss which her fond parents alone can feel, but which cannot be portrayed. She was the pride of a do ting mother, and blooming hope of a fond father, a kind sister, and affectionate friend ; but she has gone hence, yet not*, without a hope of re alizing the redeeming efficacy of Ihe blood of the Lamb, which she expiessed but a few hour* before her flight from this sublunary sphere of tribulation and woe.
