ReTival in Milton. Diar Brother Tobet: You will be pleased to learn as our hearts are rejoiced and overflowing with gratitude with the prospect, that we have again a gra cious outpouring of the spirit of God, in our beloved church. When I left home to attend Person court this morning seven had made a public profession of the re ligion of Christ, and the number of inquirers were in creasing as well as the general interests of the meet ; ing. The prospect now is, that we shall have a good meeting with the most happy results, not only in the conversion of many bouIs, but a revival in the hearts of those who are the professed followers of Christ Many who made a profession when our dear brother Keynoldson was with us, have not as yet connected themselves with any church; the present meeting will, I trust, be the means of their coming forward and uniting themselves with the people of God. We had indulged the hope of another visit from brother Reynoldson this Fall, but in this I suppose we shall be disappointed in consequence of his Agency for the Murfreesborough Female College. Our protracted meeting was commenced without any previous notice or preparation. Evidences of seriousness and attention to the word of God exhibi ting .itself in tfie congregation, we concluded on the second Sunday night in this month, to protract the meeting from night to night, when on Wednesday night last a number came forward and asked an in terest in the prayers of the people of God. The pas tor of our church, Elder Lacy, is assisted 'by Elders McDowell and J. J. James, our former pastor, who labors with great zeal and evident effect. Elder W. M: Ferguson from Danville is expected to-day. Our congregations are quite large. .. Most of those who have made a profession are promising young ladies of highly respectable families, connected with broth, er-McDowell's female seminary, among them a daughter of Elder A. M. Poindexter of Virginia, a distinguished minister of our church and the efficient Agent of Richmond College. The influence of these young ladies now, and in lime to come, none can estimate. It is remarkable that nearly all of the pupils of Elder McDowell's school, upwards of 50, are professors of the religion of Christ. So much for the force of good examples, and of wise counsel and instruction. . .' There are good hopes of the pupils of brother Henson-s school also sharing in the revival as one or more have already presented themselves for prayer. Yours truly, N.J. Palmer.

The late lamented John Kerr, in a letter dated March 14, 1831, (at which time he was pastor of the first Baptist Church in Richmond) speaks of Mr formed into a harmless lanb, whom we must take to our bosom, and fondle with the kin lest caresses.

M Now his religious system has assumed a definite tangible form. No Creed in Christendom rests upon dogmas more bold and roundly asserted ; and there ought now to Se an end of all wrangling and strife, on this subject among Baptists. The man who be lieves Mr. Campbell's system, resembles the Baptists much less than he resembles the Roman Catholics : and cannot, as I suppose, from motives of piety, desire a connection with the Baptist church. The Baptist churches, I think should treat such with the same civility they do the Catholics, or any other denomin ation which they believe to be in dangerous error. These are my solemn opinions, after having read Mr. Campbell's writings, heard him, at large, in the pulpit, and spent many hours with him, in private, riendiy and full conversation It will not seem at all surprising, in view of such acts relative to Mr. Campbell, that a " Conference was held at Upper King and Queen Meeting-house," V a., M composed of a delegation from eight churches belonging to the Dover Association, to take into consideration the state of things, produced by the in troduction amongst" them, " of the principles and practice known by the name of Campbellism." Of this Conference, Andrew Broaddus, and Robt. B. Semple were members. They both too belonged to a committee (of which Andrew Broaddurwas chair man) appointed to prepare and present to the Con- erence a Report upon the object of the meeting. In this report it is stated, the "errors ot" Campbellism, are various ; some of them comparatively unim portant, while others appear to be of the most serious and dangerous tendency.3 The report speaks of these errors as striking " at the vitals of godliness." After specifying these vital errors, as consisting in the dental of the influence of the Holy Spirit in the salvation of man ,the substitution of reformation for repentance ?the substitution of baptism for con version, regeneration, or the new birttand tlie Pela gian doctrine of the sufficiency of man's natural powers to effect his own salvation r and passing resolutions declarative of opposite sentiments, the Conference adopt the following resolution. . " Resolved, there fore, that we recommend to our churches, when any off their members shall maintain all, or any of these radical errors, that in love and tenderness they en deavor to convince them of their errors ; but in the event ot failing in the object, that in the fear of God and spirit of f aithf ulness, they declare non-fellowship with such, and separate them from their com munion, as offenders against God and truth." Notwithstanding this manifesto, thus public sni. cific and pointed with the names of Senile and oroauaus conspicuous upon it, Mr, Campbell, after the death of these holy men, desecrating, . with bar barous insensibility, not only the sanctity of the do- muc ueartn, anu all the, feelings of private friend snip and affection but desecrating the grave nd "'S Uie a aas tne unblushing audacity, to publish to the world that - Dr. -Semnl dying words commended his doctrine, and bid him God-speed in the work of the "Reformation a de claration about as credible as would be the declara tion that the dying Saviour commended the doctrine of the Scribes and Pharisees.

Would it ever have been believed, that a man thus branded by the best men in our Denomination With '9 t famous Jiertsy and .lawlc .disorganization lator of the Bible, as he is, as a member of the Bible Society ; or who suffer themselves to be duped by his harangues, which they may now happen to hear in being willing to impose upon themselves by such flimsy and sophistical pretenses must really court delusion; and seek, unhapptly.lo deceive, both themselves and others. We should pay a sad price, for any advantage which might be gained by a New Version, with re spect to baptism (even were that advantage admit ted) were we willing, for this consideration, to meet the Campbellites in fraternal embrace, or indeed, to flinch in the least degree, from the sternest and most implacable opposition to their errors. Deprecating as I do, both errors, it cannot admit of a doubt, that it would be a most unfortunate exchange for the in terests of truth, were we willing to accept of Camp bellism, even upon the condition of being rid of Pe-do-baptism. The ordinance of baptism, (though I yield to none in the sincerity of my devotion, to this holy and precious institute of our religion : or the grief and reprobation with which I deprecate the desecration of this expressive and affecting symbol dishonoured despoiled of its beauty, its honour, and its glory by the substitution of an insignificant secular rite, the clamorous Jjastard of a corrupt Christianity, prostituting itself to the embraces of worldly power and ambition) is nevertheless but a very small matter, compared with such an awful corruption of the pure doctrines of the gospel, and such a deadly stab at the very soul of Christianity. It is certainly no recommendation of the New Version enterprise, that some of its abettors have assailed with the most indecent liberty, the charac ter of some of our most distinguished nun m.r. - - V.

C, they had been without regular preaching for two years; the church is now in a neauuy cvuuuiuh, iuc v-uugrcgauon con' tinues to increase, so that I trust good may be done On Friday before' the' fourth Sunday in October we intend to commence a protracted meeting with the church. We affectionately invite ministerial help. In accordance with my appointments, I went from my regular appointment, at Shady Hill to Mar's Hil near Hillsboro, which I found without a Pastor: they are ready to pay a respectable sum for a preacher, who would preach in Hillsborough in the evening. after preaching for them in the day. The church at Mt. Hermon 5 miles south-east o Hillsborough is in a flourishing condition, having a Sunday School in their meeting house. I had two appointments in Wake county. From what I learned, the cause of Temperance is not at quite so low an ebb there, as it has been. On Saturday before the first Sunday in September I went to Mt. Zion, which is about twelve miles west of Oxford where they had a protracted meet ing conducted by their pastor, Elder James King assistea by brother Wm. E. Oakley, where! remain red until Tuesday night. About tenty-five had pro- essed faith in Christ, and nine had followed the Sa yior in the ordinance of baptism. The church in conference on Monday unanimously gave brother i hos. J. Horner, written license to preach the Gospel, wnerever his lot may be cast. I spent three days at the' protracted meeting at Grassy Creek where more than thirty professed to find the Savior precious to their souls. I was well pleased at the manner the meeting was conducted, and was delighted to see so much deep feeling with no unnecessary excitement. I learned that there are interesting meetings now going on at Hester's and also at Mt. Pleasant. May God continue to bless truth, and make his humble instruments efficient in doing much good in his cause. V J. P. M. For the Recorder. Western Baptist Convention of Norlb Caro lina .
