My opinion is that your pile ointment is the very best in use; that it will not only sooth and ameliorate, but will posi tively cure if properly applied and persevered in a fair trial. I recommend to all persons in reach of such a remedy the use of your ointment. Yours respectfully, EDW. YOUNG HILL. LaGrange, Ga., Aug. 1850. Col. Wm. B.

To gratify those who wish to become acquainted with llie doctrine ofthis sect who take the Testament for their rule of laith and practice through this lile we will present you our thoughts in the folloning manner to wit : JfL, ARTICLES OF FAITH. Ax/Jcle Ist. We believe all scripture was given by inspi ration of God, and is profitable for doctrine and is the only rule offiylh and practice. Jesus Christ being the head over all blessed forever more, Amen. Eplt. 4: 15, 16. Art. 2nd. We believe in God the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, three4n one blessed forever more Amen. For there are three that bare record in heaven, the Father, the Ward and the Holy Ghost and these three are one. 1 John 5: 7. Art. 3rd.

We believe the call lo the ministry is a special call qualified of God to preach the Gospel of his kingdom to all llie world, without the agency of Theological institu tions. Math. 10: 1. Mark. 16: 15. 1 Cor, 2: 13, 14. 2 Tim. 2: 6. Art. 6th. We also believe that human reason, though ever so highly improved can never understand the spiritual meaning of the scriptures w ithoul the principle of grace in the heart. I Cor. 2: 9, 13, 14. Art. Ith. We believe man is a corrupt being from the Original, as well as modern transgressions, and nothing short of grace divine can rescue him from Eternal destruction.— Gal. 3: 23. Eph. 2: 8. Rom. 5: 12. Art. 8/A. We believe uian in his ordinary existence des titute of Eternal life. 1 John, 3: 15. Art. 9/A. We believe that we must be immortalized, be fore we can exist tn eterpity with him who only hath immor tality dwelling in the light. 1 Tim. 6: 16. Art. 10/A. We also believe, that if man by nature pos sessed immortal existence there would be no need of his being renewed in Christ to prepare linn for eternity. Why? be cause he is the very article itself, independent of the eternal life of Christ. John, 5: 39, 40. 1 John, 3: 15. Art. 11/A. We believe that llie righteous will be the on, ly subjects that will exist in eternity, as the wicked are all to he devoured and burnt up both root and branch at the day of perdition of the ungodly. 2 Peter, 3: 7,8, 10, 13. Mulch. 4: 1. Jer. 5: 14. Art. 12/A. We believe the righteous when they die fall asleep in Christ until the appointed time of the eternal father for them to awake and put on immortality, then to enter in to the kingdom prepared for them from before the foundation of the world wherein dwelled) righteousness forever more A men. 1 Cor. 15: 6, 51, 52, 53. Math. 25: 34. 2, Peter, 3: 7, 10, 12, 13, 14. Acts, 13: 36. Art. 13/A. We believe the wicked when they die are de livered into chains of darkness to be reserved unto judgment then to be burnt up bodi root and branch, ami finally annihil ialed. Jer. 5: 14. Malaki 4: 1. Math. 4: 12. Job 36: 14. 2 Peter 2: 12. Art. 14/A. We believe all things that exist are mortal and short lived, but truth. Truth is something that is im mortal and eternal.

John 10: 13. ART. 16/A. We believe baptism is a sacrament of admit tance into the Church of God, and guaranteed unto a believ er the privilege of all oiher ordinances belonging to the Church, it therefore demands our attention as we are called upon by the Saviour, and charged to observe all things what soever he has commanded U 6 that we shall practice diem in our respective chorciips, we believe it is immaterial as to the mode we eave this tothe choice pfthe individual who wishes :o be baptized, a* the wafer and the individual must come in con tact with each oilier before baptism can be performed, we be lieve that the meant are to be applied to die individual, and not the individual tothe means.

[ Communicated.'] Extracts from Gciw tt'nsbingtou’l Farewell Address. ‘ Interwoven as is the love of Liberty with every ligament of your hearts, no recommendation of mine is necessary to fortify or confirm the attachment. The unity of government, which constitutes you one people, is also now dear to you. It is justly so: for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence ; the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad—of your safety—of your prosperity —of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes, and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed, to awaken in your minds the conviction ot this truth —as this is the point in your political fortress against which the batte ries of internal and external enemies w ill be most constantly and actively (thought often covertly and insidiously) directed, it is of infinite that you should properly estimate the immense value of your Na tional Union to your collective and indi vidual happiness; that you should cher ish a cordial, habitual and attachment to it; accustoming yourselves to think and speak of it as the Palladium of your political safety and prosperity; Uvatching for its preM£vation.iil) jealous anxiety : discotifrtena ncing wl latever may suggest n suspicion that it can in any e vent he abandoned : and indignantly frowning upon the first dawning pf every attempt to alienate any portion of our country from the rest, or to enfeeble the sacred ties which now- link together the various parts.’ Can language he more forcible, or beU ter adapted to the present crisis ? The Union here is not described as an ‘empty mockery or the casket without llie jewel’; ’ nor 1 masked Battery,’ or an ‘ engine of oppression’ or a ‘ curse’! Modem mad caps do not recognise those ‘sacred ties’ dwelt upon by the father of his country. Another extract: “ In contemplating the rauses which may disturb our Union ; it occurs as mat ter of serious concern, that any ground should have been furnished for charac terizing parlies by geographical discrim inations, Northern and Southern Allan lic and Western, whence designing men may endeavor to excite a belief, that there is a real difference of local interests and views. One of the expedients of party to acquire influence within particular districts, is to misrepresent the opinions and aims of other districts. You cannot shield yourselves too much against the jealousies ami heart burnings which spring from these misrepresentations ; they tend to render alien to each other, those who ought to be bound together by fraternal affection.’ Do you here find any apology for the tempting name of Southern Rights?—- Any pupie indulgence for that wholesale slander, detraction, and defamation of llie honoured sons of Georgia, who desire to transmit unimpaired to posterity the institutions and government of their fore fathers ?—Echo answers, ‘ where ?’ • This government, the offspring of our own choice, uninfluenced and unawed, adopted, upon full investigation, and ma ture deliberation, completely free in its principles, in the distribution ol its pow ers, uniting security with energy, and containing within itself a provision for its own amendment, has a just claim to your confidence and your support . Respects for its authority, compliance with its laws, acquicsencein its mcaturs, are duties en joined by the fundamental maxim of true liberty.” “All.obstructions to the exerution of the bins, all combinations and associa tions, under whatever, plausible charac ter, or are the regular deliberation and action of the constituted authorities, are destructive of this fundamental principle, and of fatal leudenc). They serve to organize factions, to give it an artitfcial and extraordinary force, to put n the place of the delegated ‘All of tkr nation, the will of a pc-V of one but art ful and en> t" lsin g minority of the com niuni’ , anrt ’ o the alternate i , ..mplu of different parties, to make the public administration the mirror of the ill-constructed ad incongruous project of faction, rather than the organ of consis tent and wholesome plans,digested by common counsels and modified by mutual interests.
