Hayes, Publishing Agent.i-H. B. Hayes, W. B. Wellons and J. R. Holt, Editors. It has been determined that the periodical rising* o( the “ Christian Sun,” during its next Annual revolution, shall be Weekly, instead of Semi-Monthly. As to the propriety of this change, scarcely a doubt can be entertained by any one acquainted with the condition of the Christian denomination. South. It being the Or gan of the Southern portion of our people, and the only Journal published by them ; Semi-Monthly issues are entirely too slow, to Keep pace with the spirit of the age in which we live. The same great cardinal principles which have here tofore governed us, shall be strictly observed—the Bible, the only rule of faith and conduct—Christian, the only true name by which the followers of Christ should be known—Christian character, the only proper test of re ligious fellowship—and the Union of all Christians up on Bible grounds. These principles we are fully persuaded will finally prevail over all the Anti-Christian isms of the day. By publishing the “ Sun ” weekly, we shall have it in our power to present to our readers a much greater va riety of interesting matter in the way o( General Intelli gence and Miscellany. The Publisher intends to spare no pains or expense, in making the Weekly “Sun” one among the neatest and best printed papers in the State. Communications, in order to receive prompt attention, should be written on one side of the sheet only, in a plain round hand, with black ink—care being taken to cross all the t’s and to dot all the i’s ; the Publisher reserving to himself the right, ip all cases, to pass upon the practi cability of their admission into the columns of the ‘ Sun.’ Our former correspondents are especially invited to favor us with a continuance of their favors.
