The moral of this is, that wdiile we con- '

upon the political party controversies of:

Give the Names.
The Biblical Becorder, two weeks ago,
contained the following paragraph:
" We were informed hy a friend, a few
days since, that he was requested by an in
telligent Methodist gentleman, in one of
the eastern towns of the State, to say to
Mr. H. that he never wished to see in his
family another copy of his paper that it
was a stench in his nostrils."
Mr. James will please furnish the Editor
with the names of him who sent the mes-1
sage, and of him who bore it. If he fail j
to comply with this demand, we shall add ;
it to the accumulating list of questions 1
from which he has backed out ; and shall
moreover he warranted by his failure to
pronounce the above paragraph untrue, j
Indeed, we are already fully of this latter j
opiuion ; and nothing but the names of the j
parties, and direct proof from themselves,
can sustain the Editor of the Becorder iu j
the statement he has made. I

Tracts Tracts. j
All orders received have been nlk-d; and i
still a large supply on hand. The worth j
of a thousand dollars in tracts miht be i
distributed by the preachers aud others !
in the Conference, this year, to great j
advantage, without interfering at all '
with other duties ; and shall a surplus !
remain on hand, locked up by negligence j
or avarice, when only three hundred dol- j
lars worth have been ordered ? Come,
brethren of the ministry and laity, let us
awake to the value of tracts in promo
ring the work in which we are engaged.
The Conference year is waning to its close,
and comparatively little has been done in
the distribution of Tract?, Orders aro
solicited. -
The Circus.
Another squadron of the devil's artille
ry, in the shape of a circus, is ranging
through North Carolina. Let it alone ;
keep away from it. It is evil, and only
evil. Members of the church, especially,
who attend the circus, are guilty of a vio
lation of the rules of the church, which
subjects them to very unpleasant conse
quences. The circus is immodest and ob
scene in its tendencies. Shun it as you
w-ou!d the plague; keep your children pure
from its contamination.

preach it iu JJeaufort, and it al.-o happens
that we are furnished with full anH relii
ble notes hy two ministers of the Gospel,
who were present and heard him. The
real position of the good Bishop relative
to other churches was rather doubtful he-
fore. It was rumored that his high church
notions tiau impeiieu nun to wituuraw irom
the American Bible Society, and that he
was a Biemher of a Committee in Bahi-
more which had censured Dr. Johns for
preaching iu a Methodist Church. But
the fact that Bishop Atkinson himself did
preach in Methodist churches, whenever
the opportunity offered, as at ITanklinton,
Wilson, and other places, where he had
.f. n invited. ic.rtAu-T wltb thft ni aimer
T 1111 11
and matter of his discourses, have led to
the opinion that he was quite in contrast
with his prcdecessor,and that though he
was Bkhop of the Protestant Episcopal ;
Church, his views and influence would be
tolerant, kind and fraternal toward other
churches. "Would that it were so! It
would he better for the common cause of
rtdigion iu North Carolina, and for the j
unity of the Churcli of Christ at large, if
one of Bishop Atkinson's position of in-'
fiaence and character were faithful to the ,
unity of the Church and to the clah'.S of j
truth and love and toleration. '
But however painful, it becomes our
duty to record the fact that Bishop Atkin-
son is imbued with the spirit of high church
intolerance, as thoroughly as was Bishop
Ives. This latter gentleman preached up :
a sort of sacramental, mechanical salva-,
tion ; vras of opinion that out of his church ;
1:0 salvation was possible; led his church ;
to the extreme of high churchism; and :
then himself went to Borne. His succes-
sor is generally supposed to occupy alto- ;
gether different ground; but bis sermon j
on Confirmation dissipates the illusion. j
He is a high churchman, as intolerant and !
exclusive as was ever Bishop Ives. In ;
proof, we state his main positions in his j
sermon on Confirmation. His text was
Hebrews, i; 1. lie laid down the follow-
ing positions : j
1. That the characteristics cf a first or
essential principle of Christianity were,
that "it be introductory, perpetual, and
universal."
2. That confirmation, as held and prac-
ticcd by himself and his church, was an
essential principle of Christianity.
8. That where this confirmation was not,
Christianity was not.
It will thus be seen, 1, That Bishop At -
kiuson holds that salvation is impossible
to any who are not members of his church.
2, That while he unchurches ail other
churches, he holds that no one iu North
Carolina can get to heaven, unless he,
Bishop Atkinson, shall lay his hands upon
liim.

our return we shall calmly examine these
claims of the Bishop to be the only me- They passed by the Methodists handed

careful perusal, we are of the same opinion j deed rare but not ritu j doufct wtetlier
still, as to the merits of the scheme: we
tninK it myoives tne oojectionaoie ieatures
of a lottery, and should be frowned down
by the religious public. But we are also
of the opiuion that it is not so understood
by Mr. Caldwell; that he has erred greatly
in judgment, but with good intentions.
The plan he proposed should be rejected,
because it is wrong; the author of that
plan should be judged leniently, for he
meant well.
By the way, the Recorder noticed this
plan with a relish ; hut fails to notice a
Gift Enterprise by members of his own
church, which has all the objectionable
features of a lottery. Other Baptists, in
the Herald, rebuke their brethren ; hut
friend James is silent. The difference be
tween us is, that while we fearlessly con
demn what we think is wrong, even when
the offender is a Methodist, our neighbor
of the Recorder, by his silence, sanctions
whatever is done under the name of Bap
tist. -

KCy. Joseph Cross, D. I). Stevenson

Charleston. '
AVe are indebted to some friend in
Charleston for a well printed volume of
293 pages, with the above title. It isj
written in the usual happy style of Dr.,
Cross, and a glance through its pages has ,
gone far to overcome the hesitancy with '
which, from the outskirts, we have hitherto ;
looked into iQ ml.-ty regions of I'rophtie j
Interpretation. Tho most commonly re-!
eelved theory of the Millenium is, that;
the world is first to ho converted, and that ;
then Christ wuil come and reign a thou- j
sand years, at the end of which the resur-'
rection aud the judgment will take place. J
But the theory advocated with great skill j
in this volume, is that Christ will first come ;
when Christianity is apparently threatened j
v.-ith extinction, and will in person lead j
the movement which is to result iu tho j
conversion of the whole earth. The spirit!
of the book is befitting its theme j and we ;
commend it as a valuable contribution to i
Biblical Literature. j

Curious, but not Strange. j
Hexueusox, N. C-, July 8, 185G. !
Bro. ILJlia : Perhaps it may be as well (
to publish the following rare scrap of his- j
tor-. Professor Brooks, of Wake Forest j
, College, had an appointment to preach in j
j a private house in this place, the first Son- j
day in May. The congregation could not;
i be comfortably situated there. He, with j
; the congregation, were invited to the Meth-!
odist Chtvreh; (who invited them, I never;
knew;) they went, and he preached there. '
' The first Sunday in June they were again j
j invited hy proper authority. One of the j
j students came to supply the Professor's j
! place : he preached in the Methodist i
I Church. The first Sunday in July the!
. Professor came, and again they were in-!
; yited ; the church was opened for them ; j
; the congregation met there ; a largo por-
' tion of the Methodist society attended, j
Professor Brooks preached, and then spread I
; the table, and administered the sacrament j
' of the Lord's Supper to the Baptists. j
tho history of the church, in any age orj
e0UQtry, can show the equal cf this. I
clll surprised that Professor Brook should
; so far forget himself, and so palpably vio
late the proprieties of life and the courte
sies of Christianity.
Query. Has the Iron Wheel embold
ened them ? If so, I commend to their
careful consideration " Brownlow." I think
,
t will do them good. But perhaps the j
Professor had bad advice : if so, I hope he :
will learn in future to be courteous to j
others, and not be led to commit another!
such a blunder.
W.M. Holmes.
That is the way they do. We no where j
read that the Apostles ever excluded any
Christians from the Lord's table; hut
Christians were excluded in Henderson,
bv a guest in their own house. Our Bap
tist brethren never proselyte ; oh I ne, not
they ! But they avail themselves cf a
courteous invitation merely to preach in a

! The undersigned were appoiiite-1 a Com
f niltsee, to prepare an A lire. s to the Vot :rs
! of X.rth Ciirouua, setting i'-.i-.h the priiivi-
which the Preamble eefs our, to wit: '' tha.
the laws of the land f-hr.iild pi ovide f .r the
tirotfctinn of the citizens from the evils aris
ing from the liijimr traffic-'' ; for the fact that
" the 1.ITS of the land'' attempt to regulate,
this traiHc, is sufficient argument to provo
that the same power is vested with authority'
to control it, even to entire abrogation.
i Vv e presume, a-so, that nore wnl gainsay
; f Sp..,.nd T.ron .sitian of the Preamble, that

The "third suggestion of the Preamble is
