t&f An accident occurred to the Press
jus-t as we were getting ready to work off,
our iiifcide form. It took several hoars to ,
Tcyuir tie breakage, arid consequently the ;
iasue i a little behind time. This will ac- ;
courjt for this No. not reaching eome of i

Mic.tes of the K. C. Conference .
The manner in which the Minutes of
the lut Conference at Greensboro' have ;
been published, has cot been very satis-,
factory. But what then 1 Why, let us all ;
run a tilt at the committee, at the printers, !
and at natters and things promiscuously.:
But softly -the preparation of tbeMin-i
utcs for the press devolved chiefly upon the ;
Secretary of Conferenc. He could only 1
snatch a brief interval for tbia labor, from
the cares of a Bistrict, and the innumera-1
ble other cares which rush in, at such aj
season of the Conference year; and he did 1
this by request of the Conference, gratui-'
tously.
When the Minutes were placed in the ,
bands of the publisher, the Legislature was
iu session, and every printing office in this .
city wan crowded with job-work. It thus ;
happened that the style of typography is !
none of the best ; and that by some inex-1
plicablo error, the gheet on which the list !
pf appointments was printed, did not fit as j
a covering for the pamphlet, for which it j
was originally designed. And so, the j
Minutes were tacked up and packed off, i
without the appointments. j
Decidedly the best plan will be to grum- j
ble no more, send a Email contribution to I
Iter. J. II. Wheeler, to aid in paying ex- J
peases, and take such measures at next '
Conference, as hball insure the publication j
of oui Minutes hereafter, in a manner ;
which shall be creditable to ourselves, and j
edifying to all the people.
Warrensville P.O.
A subscriber inforsas us that the N. C
C. Advocate is very irregular in reaching
WarrctiSvillo P. O., in Bamptson connty.
Tha cause of this is not at either end of the
route : but arises at some intermediate
t
point. i
A mail leaves Clinton every Wednesday j
morning for Elizabeth Town, by way of j
Wrarrenaville. We are advised that this is I
the most direct route, and respectfully re
quest Tost Masters " to govern themselves
accordingly."
Louisiana Conference.
Last week the New Orleans Christian
Advocate was taken from our table, before
we bad selected some items of interest to
the reader, from its account of the late ses
sion of the Louisiana Conference. Other
exchanges, since received, enable us to
make the following summary :
The Conference met in Waterproof, La.,
on the 4th of February, Bishop Kavanaugh
presiding.
Seven preachers were received by trans
fer from other south-western Conferences.
One was re-admitted, and five were receiv
ed oa trial, making a total accession of
thirteen to its effective list.
Two were discontinued, and three were
located at thair own request, leaving a clear
gain of eight, to the itinerant ranks in that
Conference.
. Four were ordained Deacons, and five
received ordination as Elders. Jeptha
Hughes had died, after a ministry of thir
ty years.
About $9,000 was collected for Missions
during the year, being an advance of 55
per cent, cn any former year, and more
than an average of one dollar for each
white meuiber. The Missionary Anniver
sary was held oa Sunday night; Bishop
Kavanaugh and Dr. Drake made effective
speeches ; and the collections amounted to
$1,720.
The claims of the Superannuated, the
widows and orphans were paid off in full,
leaving a surplus of S3.

The Miaiitry for the Timet-
It j alleged that one cause of the com
parative inefficiency of the gospel, is the
want of a christian ministry adapted to the
peculiar wants of the present age. We
believe tLii h true; but not iu the sec5
generally received.
By a ministry suited to the
time, is
tisually meant an educated ministry, learn- j ppaee, must, f,r the present, limit this in
ed in all whin'h pertains to modern edaca- ves.tigation to the "Baptist .Slaw: Conven
tion, quick to perceive anl flexible to the I t'on of North Carolina." The objects of
influences of the pubiic temperament by
which the ministry is surrounded.
All this, and more,, may be made availa
ble to the cause of Christ. In qualifica
tions of this secondary tort, the christian
miaihtry of the present day are not inferior
to their predecessors ; and are equal to the
members of the other learned professions.
But these are qualifications acquired by
preachers, just as other men acquire them.
.Nurtured among the people, themselves a
T;art of th people, thev nmt necessarily
share the onward progress, and be in sym-
pathy with the common sentiments of the
people, in all which pertains to them as
men and as citizens.
All attempts by individuals or associa
tions, to promote a greater adaptation of
the christian ministry to the imaginary
popular tastes and wants of the age, have
led and must ever lead only to a vitiation
of public sentiment, and to the seculariza
tion of the clergy.
The great want of the times is more ho
liness, more laborious self denial, and de
votion to the salvation of souls, in the
ministry.
Manners have changed; but hearts are
still " deceitful above all things, and des
perately wicked." The old nations of the
earth have passed away, but human Bature
remains.
The gospel which suited the fishermen
of Galilee, the philosophers of Greece and
the citizens of Rome, is " the power of God
unto salvation, to every one thatbelieveth."
The gospel is in the Bibln ; and the mn
whom the Holy Ghost separates for the
preaching of the gospel, can save the world,
and fulfil their mission by preaching noth
ing else but the gospel. But they must
first feel its power in their own heaits. Its
unction of fire must dwell upon their own
lips. Its divine origin and heavenward
destination must be manifested in their
own lives.
The grade of personal piety in the min
istry of the present day is too low, and
the tide of worldliness is too high. The
people should support them better, and pray
for them more. The world will then have
a christian ministry adapted in all respects
as instruments of its own conversion.
Wills.
A large portion of the expensive and
harassing litigation in the courts of the
country is about the property of men wh
are dead. The most bitter and destructive
family feuds arise from the same cause.
Much of the idleness, and dissipation, so
injurious to society, and so destructive to
individuals, is supported by the waste of
the hard earnings of a too indulgent parent
by his degenerate heirs.
Some of these evils might be prevented,
and all of them might be greatly mitigated,
if men who have property, would dispose
of it by testamentary devise, in form and
manner which should leave no door open
for the entrance of litigation, among the
heirs. But our object is not an essay on
wills, but a suggestion to those who should
make them.
When you make your will, remember
the Institutions of learning in the North
Carolina Conference.
In other States, in other churches, and
in other Conferences, liberality of this
kiad has placed them far in advance of us
in the cause of education. Even in North
Carolina a bequest of two hundred thou
sand dollars by one wealthy gentleman, has
placed means in the hands of the Presby
terian Church to erect a college which
shall be his own best monument ; and shall
be a blessing for generations to come.
We also have colleges. The labor of the
preachers, and the liberality of the friends
of education have made Greensboro' Fe
male College what it is.
Normal College is now upon a vantage
ground, which promises well for its future
usefulness.
Olin High School, already meeting a
public necessity, may yet become a college
of the first grade.
Who will endow these institutions ? It
ought to be done : it can and must be ac
complished. The necessities of the church
require it; and our people have ample
means to effect it.
If the living appreciated their responsi
bility as God's Stewards, their liberality
would speedily place these educational in
terests of the church upon a broad and
permannt foundation. Much will doubt
less be don e by don ations. But we put it to
the consciences and to the patriotism of
those who have the means, whether they
should not aid these institutions, by liberal
testamentary devises.
The wealth which would be squandered
by a dissolute heir, or swell the already large
estate of one who needs no addition to his
means, and feels no gratitude to the testator,
would be better bestowed by will upon the
cause of religions education in North Caro
lina. It would advance the cause of God
to the end of time.

t'jis Convention
are thus defined ia its
'Constitution."
"Akt. 2. The primary ob
of this
Convention hall be the edecatioa of young
irjfQ called of God to the Gospel ministry,
and approved by the churches to Tfhich
they respectively belong; the employment
of missionaries within ths limits of the
State, ai,d a co operation with tie S -uth-
jern Baptist Convention in the prora :i nof
uii-:ion3 in general.
It is thus seen that the Convention rep-
rests the Baptist church ia North Caro
h7 controlling two of its most vital
interests. It is also known to be the hir-htat
advisory council of that sect, and to exert
a commanding moral in2uence upon all iis
operations. Of this we do not cimplaia:
we but state the fact.
The principles of republican govern
ment require, that this Convention should
be composed of delegates freely elected by
the churches; and that each church should
be represented by a number of delegates,
ia proporiion to the number of its own com
municants But is the Convention composed of
members freely elected by the churches,
upon such a basis of representation ? That
our readers may sse for themselves, wheth
er the Convention is constructed upon the
republican model, we quote from the con-
Jgtltution, every word by which it defines
the selection and qualification of its mem
bers :
Art. 4. This Convention shall be com
posed of such individuals and delegates
from such institutions as shall make ade
quate contributions to its funds.
Art. 5. Every association or individual
shall be entitled to send to the Convention
one delegate, who shall be a member of the
Baptist church, for every ten dollars paid
into the treasury.
Art. 6. Any regular member of the
Baptist church, by contributing at one
time, the amount of thirty dollars to the
funds of the Convention, may become a
life member, provided he or she continue
a member in good standing in the Baptist
church to which he or she belongs. Also,
by the payment of one hundred dollars at
one time, may become a lifemcmber of the
Board of Managers upon the same condi-
tions.
Tbi3 is republicanism with a vengeance !
The representation of the Baptist Church
es, in their own State Convention, is based
upon money. Membership in this body is
a marketable privilege, and h purchased
with money. The price of a seat is not
the free suffrage of the body of the mem
bership, but the contribution of ten dollars.
For this sum a church can purchase the
right to elect a delegate, or au individual
can buy a seat for thirty dollars he can
procure authority to be a member of the
highest Baptist representative body iu
North Carolina, during his natural life 1
This may all be very wise and proper.
But we ask, is this the boasted republican
ism of the Baptist church ? With what
face or consistency can the members of that
communion charge upon Methodists a want
of republicanism in their church polity,
when their own State Convention is based
upon the principle of a moneyed aristoc
racy ?
Toward christians of every church, we
cherish fraternal feelings ; but when men
are moved by proselyting purposes, to give
us lesions in republicanism, we insist up
on interpreting their professions by their
practices.
A Northern view of a Southern Minister.
Dr. Deems lately had occasion to visit
the city of New York. A certain Profes
sor Mattison met him accidentally for a
few moments, and talked with bim a little.
He also gives the substance of this inter
esting interview ia a letter to the North
ern Independent ; from which, as repro
duced in Zion's Herald, we quote the fol
lowing paragraph in full :
" A SLAVE nOLDIXG D. D."
" On - Monday morning we chanced to
ride down town in the cars with Dr. Deems,
who had preached at Trinity the morning
previous. The -conversation turned upon
the new paper, slavery, tc. ; whereupon
the Doctor cooly informed us that he was
u ihe oicner of several slaves" that he
" felt no more conscience about owning his
cook than he did about owning his wife,"
&c. We asked him if the relation which
southern gentlemen sustained to their wives
was that of master and slave ? to which he
made no reply.
He stated, moreover, not only that three
fourths of the members of his Conference
were slave holders, but that several mem
bers of the Baltimore Conference were
slaveholders also. He said the slaves were
usually deeded to some other persons, but
were in fact owned by the preachers.
Were some of these slaveholders in the
last General Conference?'
The above is givn to the reader, simply
to show how northern fanatics look upon
southern ministers of the Gospel. Un
wittingly they are the worst enemies of the
colored race. Discussion is the fuel that
feeds the fires of their fanaticism. Wc at
the South are of one mind we turn from
the mischievous agitations which have per
iled church and state, to the great duty of
preaching the gospel cf salvation to master
and slave.
