Christ refers ps to the daj-s that were before tho flood, aad in conneotioh with it as foreshadowing tlM state of the world at the scenes in oonncction with his second coming.

o'Aod as it waa In the days of Noe, so shall it be alao in the days of the Son of man. Th^y did eat, tiM^ drank, they married wives, they were given in iiuuTiag& nntil the day that Noe entered into the ark. and the flood eamt^and destroyed them all. I tall you, in that night there shall be two men ia «M bM; the one shut iw taken, and the other Aall be left. Two women shall be grinding together; t l^ one shall be taken and the other lef t Two men abui be in the field; the one shall be taken and the other left And they answered and said unto him, Wherei, Lord? And. he said onto them. Whereso-ever thhe body is, thither will the eagles be gath er«d together.^-inke xvii: 26,27,

The disciples very itaturally asked where they aboold be taken. Christ only answered them,

• ^ e r e the body is, there al«o the eagles will as-sembie."

That ia, where he was in his glorified body, (liltibwthe whole body of > his people ndsed and glorlfled would be gathered together unto him, to be evwnnore with him.

I t seems worthy of remark tiiat in the above passage Christ evidently anticipates the discoveries of edentista by some thousand of years, indicating as he does the spherical form of the earth and its revolution on its axis making day and n i ^ t in dlAirent localities at the same time. At onrplaoe irwUl be eveninib at another midnight, at another eodt««rowing, at another*morning, or, aa in the paaaage J o ^ quoted, in one part of the world, two men will be asleep together at the time for slumber, ia another two women wilt be preparing the morn> iug meal, and in another part, still further eaat, two mea will be ploughing the field, when one will be

' take*, mounting up aa on the ~ings of an eagle^ to meet the liord in the aU, and the other shall be lefl to the deluge of wrath tliat ahall break in succes-' sive graves of desolation over an utterly godless worid.

Paul alluded to tills event as a gathering together uBto Christ—

Christ, iu his iMt address to his disoipie% assures them of his return for them, at which time he would receive U)em unto himself, aeveritaore to be separated from him.

«And If I go and.ptvpam a place for yi}u, I wil come again aad receive you unto mysolf; tliat where 1 am, there ye may be al)iO."--Johu xlv: 3,

Tiie last sound that lingers upon our ear as tlte formuta of the communion is repeated, is a reftr,tiin of this blessed hope. For as often as ye eat this bread and drink this cup yei show tlie Lord's deatli till he coa.e->till he come.

I^ui minutely describes this momontou* and, to the diiid ot (k t^ moat glorious event:

"Behold, I shew vou a mysteryj we shall not all sleep, l)ut we shsJl ue changed.

niptlble,aud we shall be changed. For thii iptible must put on incorruption, and this mor-

. n a moment, in the twinkliog of an eye, at the last trnmp; for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raiset inoomiptible, and we ' "" " ' corruptible must pi tal must put on imuiortality. 'So vrhen this cor-ruptible shall have put on iucorroption, and tliis mortal ahall ha\e put on Immorlality, then shall be brought to paaa the saying that is written, death i« awallowed up in victory. O death, where ia th atlng? O grave [Hades], where is thy victory The ating of death if aiu; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesns Christ. There-fore, my beloved brethren, l>e ye steadfast, uamov< able, always abounding In the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain ia the Lord."—! Cor. xv : fii-Si.

To the church at Thessalonica thus : "But I would not have you to be ignorant, breth-

ren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sor row not, even as oUiera which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died aud rose airain. even so them also which sleep in Jesus will ^od brihi with him. Vor Uiia we say of the Iiord, that we which

iig unto you by the word are alive and retuaia

unto the coming of tiie Lord, sball not prevent them which are asleep. For the LoM himself ahall descend from heaven ^i th the voice of the archan-n l , aad with the trump of God; and the dead in Chri'tt ahaii rise flrat: then we which are alive and remain shall b« caught up together with them in the clouiie to meet the Loiti In the air: and so ahall we ever b^ with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words."—1 Thsss. iv : 13-18.

"/Verenf them which aleep.'' H<i did not use thia word, but a Greek word which meana "to pro ^ cede" or "go before," and this was the Ineaulng of our English word "prevent" tliree hundred years ago, and we still find the term "preveuient" some-tim'es used, e. p., "prevenient grace," grace going before an act Tho saints who are upon the earth when Christ comes/or his saints, will not, in the Bapture, precede or go before those whose bodies are in their graves, for the dead iu Christ will first rise, and then the living ones will be caught up (o meet them In Pari^se.

'K>h, what rapture shall thrill the hearts of the redeemed, what ecstasy of bllsa ahall ravish the sorrowing, tempted, troubled disciples of Jesus, when responding to his shout that will sound to the worid onfy as a strange clap of thunder, they shall in the twinkllngof an eye beohahgoa into the like-neaa of hia glorioua bod^ and together with the riaen aalnta, hand in iiand with,some whose grav^ have cast a ahadow all along their pathway of life, they ahall aacend to be with him forever, and to be done with ain and auflbring forever! But what amazement and horror tntist seize upon the nreleas, the unbelieving, the woridly, when the husba^ shall inisil firom his side the wife who had wept bitter tMn over his rejection of her Savior, and the child shall look around .in vain for the mother whose entreaties bad been diarega^ed, and the flrieada who ndngled their ayatpathlea ahaii silently and suddenly part to meet no morel

t n Uie JUiitUHppi Uc^tUi Mmtrd^ of Ju ly S7th, 1882, there is a communication over the signature of "P. F. M. B.," in which the writer b«traya Us iU-will td the writer of "Xnteroommnaioa," aad> like the Bushman, lies behind his hedge aad shoota kis arrows from his place of oonoeaimeat, appai«hUy u the hope of wounding'to death the maah* k

afraid to meet In tiie open field of diacuMlon. Bio* ken down in tho back, and no longer able to apring to the bite, he spits, and hisses, and tries to spread his poboubus slime over a fklr and wcli<4anied repiiutlon. The spirit to Injure crops out aopiain-y thiough hia entire article, that U Ja the oommoa udgnient of all who re«d|it, that "F.F. M.B."

finda it impoasible to answer Dr. Graves' arguments by reason and the logic of facta, and he undertakaa to supply the deficiences of his cause by abusing a great and good man, and feigns a contempt for the Hcholarship and reasoning of Bro. Graves, wliich he, "P. F. M. B.," does not lbel,-.whlch will deceive no one, and will injure no one tiut himself, if he can be injured. That it may be aeen that I am tfotmis-represenUng "P. P. M. B;," I will quote from him a little: "The obJecUons urged (by Dr. Grjlvea) agaiust there being a chureh there (at TroAs), are very liUy and unworthy o^ nottce were It not tar the gravity with which they are presented." Doubdess "P. P. I f . B." is a very wlso man. In his own conceit, aa he wduld have us believe Uiat Dr. Graves Is "very silly," ind, it may be, there is no hojie of him, but I will not despair of hitn, If he will give himself to aaerious study of Pnin xr r i : '2. In reply to some remarks of Dr. Graves, that there is no recorded evidence that Paul evar preach-ed at Troas prior to Paul's laat vlalt tl^ere he aays: "Any one who has evet.rea,d hl» Tesiament to any advantage knowa better than to brieve such Hnff." )oea not every reader ot the New Teatainent know

that If P«ui was ever at Troaa more lima twice, tho writers of the New Testament not s t ^ of t? What, then, could have moved tJila maa to

write such things, buflhe desire to ii^ure man, and bolster up a Deillali practice? If, liitor-communionlsta cab defend th«Irpraoti^ onl^ by abusing and misrepresentlug thMr brethren, will not every true DapUst say, «<Away with It"? Biit, 'P. F. M. B.** does not stop h re."

And why doe-* lie

to injure tiie Doctor? la it not because Dr. Graves has written a book in which he has power-(tally ahown that Interoommunlon between Baptist churches is unscriptural—unauthorized by the New Testament, and for that reason chiefly it should be ibaadoned, and "P. F. M. B." not being able to write such a book, and Just as incapable of auawer-ing i t ; and no willing to give us a bad practice that he cannot defend, he triea to destroy the Influence of the book, by deatroying tho character of the man who wrote it? Doee he not expect to createan un-reasonable prejudice in the minds of Baptists agalast a great and good man who haa served them fWthftilly for neariy fl»rly years; and agaln»t a neat, and Bible truth, by his reckless mi«repre»en tatlons of both ? But he will fail of hia aim—his shdUwiii ftOl ftiiortof their mark, for Baptlsta know that a bad praciice always begeU a bad apir-i t They know that abuse Is not argument, and t h e y s e e In such abuse the spirit oi a wicked iutoi-«ranoe, and they are convinced that if Intercom-itraniou can onlx^be defended by abusing those who

I oppose it with the Word of God, it should at once die the death it deserves. "P. P. M. B." can no moreoppreaa Dr. Graves ^ a n the gnat could op preiM Uie ox by alighting on his horn. The wolves told the sheep they could have peace by dispensing witiitheirguarda—the dogs and shepherds. The

- s h e e p foolishly accepted tlie apparenUy friendly proposition, and were devoured. Philip told tiie A t t i e n i a n s l f they would drive away their oratora and leaders he would make peace with them, and histpry records the e a a y overthrow of a people without leaders^ The Athenians were told by an envious demagogue that if they would save them selves from being leail away from the worship o their goda (Idols), they must put Socrates to death They listened to bis advice, and destroyed their best friend. Baptlsto will not Imitate these bad examples by aaslsUng Dr. Graves' detractors to in Jure a true servant of God, who haa iieen instru mental la saving bis brethren fh>m heresies as noxious as the flery serpenU in the camp of Israel, meieiy to pleaae a few ambitious and envious spir-its who seem to have more regard for their own oplnioaatban theyluivefbr the word and law of theLord.

Bro.Qambrell boasts that the whole Baptist press is assailing Bro. Graves, and non-intercommunion, (which I respectftally deny) and If it be so, what does it prove? Have they shows any Scripture for iatenommunion ? Not a line; but It Is courte-sy, courtesy, sounded all along the line of batUe, flsrce aa the war-cry of the Popwi of Komo agalnat the persecuted W*lde»aes. It was the wise men— the learned men, who banded together to atop the ptogwsaoftbeCtospol by munjering IU author. But did they stop It? LetthemUiionsnow lagio-ry, and the millions on their way, with Christ en-shrined in their hearU, answer 1 Non-interoommu-alon Is a Bible truth, and iU advocates are gather-ing around It, Bible in hand, a great army, ready to defend it, and "contend earnestly for the truth onoe delitewd to the aalnla."

And Baptist churclies would not exi«t if Podobaptiflts could exterminate them. Then by hur seductive arts she inveigled BapUttts into communing with Pedobaptiflls." TIten she throw down all barriers and Invited ami brought Pedohaptl«ti< to tho communion In Baptist church-es. Then she sodur^ed Buptists into acce|itiug Pe-dobaptiat Immersions as a Btblo baptisms. Olhurs might be mentioned but those arc enough to startle Baptists. Bhe was ^ast loading Baptists to her old grandiDotlicr, Home, t«> be devoured by her; and when Bco. Graves undertook, to deliver them out of her hands, lie was as much abided by some Uttlo editors as ho Is now. No Upiw tree ever bore more deadly fruit than did this same false, worldly cour-tesan, callod Courtesy; aud so 1HU<1(*4 by Bren. Pendleton and Iteufroe, and whoso leading on tlie iutorcommUnlon question we are askod lo follow. Bhe has nearly poisoucd us to death now. What is it that is aiHicting and troubling tho IMHCO of our Zion now, but the etfticts of fraternizing with our enemies through this «amo "Courtesy ?" Aud this

Is the power that Is now invoked to forco «s into interoonimuuion contrary to the word of Godf 'Bren. Pendleton and Ilanfroe both say that Baptists have no right to intercommunoexcept by authority 'of this same Court^sy, as if.she is greater in Christ's ^churches than he is hiniBolf. Hero is what ilro. Pendleton says: 'The members of every local churoh can claim it as a right to come to the Jjord's table in that church, but in no other. They may, ^lirough fiaternal co\irle*y, bo admitted to tho liord's Supper in sisior churches, but to demand 'admittance ag n right would be an assault on church independence."—Pendleton's "Distiuctivo Principles of Brtptists," pages 178-9. How Bro. Pendle'on oan use such language as the above and then bow dtfwn to a practice that ho admits h^s no sanction in the ,Kew Testament is strange to his jbretiiren. lie cansotdcny tliatcourtcay bus brought into our midst such evils as alien baptisms, pul;>lt aillliations, aud open communion, and aj^Iust which he has made unceasing' war to the pi-oient hour, and for the reason, as ho says, there is no iBcriptural authority for them; yet here ho 1; con-tending tor a practice that ho admits is equally un authorized by the Bible. Courtesy, with her flute voice and silken frippery is leading the old brother jaatray. Ho is now flying from the flelda of his r^rmor victories and glory, in company with tho fascinating fair one, perhapa to lie down and sleep, and, like Sampson, rise up shorn of his locks. If tho members of one church have no rt'gAt to come io the Lord'»Supper in anothof churoh,' it is bo-cause Christ never gave them tho right, and when the church grauts what Christ withheld sho is ex* erolaing loj^aiatlvo power, and no one knowsit better than Bro. Pendleton. Ami aro notihter-conimuhionista demanding admittance to all other communion tablea besldds their own as a rluht| and, according tp Bro. Pendleton's reasoning, "as-aaulfeing church indepondence f" If it Js a crime to destroy or assault church independence It ia a crime toi Interoommuno, for 6no loads to tho othpr, Bro.

' f lure is no reason why this, meeting should nor be one of great interest and lastit^ benefit. Oi' course every one realizds (and if, they do not they should) tho importance of these Unions that bringo' thediirerent jftorlionsof our Aasociatiqn together to unity it9 general interest and warm tho.ficarts of ita mciubors, thereby tending to .produce that, great spiritual awaking which our churches much need and must have before we will half wav meet the groat obligation resting: tiflin u« as ChrU-tians.

^hl» meeting was purposely set for Somervllle because It is one of our leading mission llclds and from it wo look for large results.

The warnings of these seem to be very solemn and the impresision made is ttiat there is great danger to be appre-

>headed fkom some quarter. Onr oonTletion is that poesibly their bearers and readers have not a very

'deiur i t e o f the real ^leaning of this vulgar word »ride a hobby/' or Just what it is to "ride a hobby."

Taming to Webster, we flud these meanings: "Kobbt 1. A strong, aotlve borta of nlddla aUia," ete. This is ' ^e primal^ aiid natural meaning of the

But if this is not the meaning inteuded it must be the last figurative weaning given, vlt t

f hen we may suppose that the )oung mlnliten of MU»U»ippi%n warned against "pursuing any favorite object", and tliat Baptists must regard any !<»otlier witti siispioloit who pursues any "(kvorite object" or purpose, or dlscumes any question with zeal and delight I

Well, how will this apply to some goad brethren In MisstsiilppI and Louisiana we wot of?

Bren. Ijandrum and Cole have one favorite object in view, and they seem and ought to be working at It with ' zcal and delight," and that is the building up of the cauie of Christ In New Orleans. Then there is our Bro. Walne; he has been, bless God, i one>Idea man fur years past, and has with acknowl edged "sear and, we trust, with "delight" also, pushed the cause of State Miwions, and ho seems to bo determined to know nothing else among Mississippi Baptists than Jesus Christ and the cause of State Missions, and it Is |owiit)|; to the fact that he rides this hobby so constantly and skiilfully thai he succcels so amazingly.

Then there was Bro. Jaa. Nelson, of saicted mem ory, whose zeal fur one favorite object consumed him; and tiiat object was Ministerial Education. He preached nothing else, talked nothing else, prayed nothlnK else, aud he moved the great hean of the Baptists of Mississippi and the Southwest as no min ever did, "and though dead he yet tptnk-elhf" and will speak for years to come, and all be-cause he rode a hobby.

And what shall we say of our venerable Bro, Webb/ thePreaident of Mississippi College?' Is not his gnat brain and soul and mind and body devoted "with zeal and delight" to the welfare aud upbuilding of his institution that Is accomplishing so much for his State and the whole Southwest? Because he has made this one thing his "hobby," is the secret of its wouderftil success independent ot endowment and even loaded with debt. Will that good minister warn young ministers, now pre par-lug tor thereat earnest work of iifo,xnot to be guilty of the fplly of these grand men? and will the Secord be heard when It advises Baptists every where to suspicion and stand clear of them or any other roan like them, who puts his whole brofn and ioul and heftrt into the work of pushing forward a noble object, a needed reformation of sentiment, or the correction <\f a pemidotu vtage, to a fal l and Immediate consummatloii ? These solemn warnings fh>m Mississippi and elsewhere mean ust this if they mean anything. And the editor intimates that the sentiment of

Tennessee Bsptiats is for no more hobbles ridden n Tennessee. If he heard that from a brother at

,the ClonveBtion, we guess it warfW>m that One who moved that the privileges of the floor be extended to certain Pedbbaptlst mialstera present Thova are the Baptists opposed to hobby-riding; Bnt we do hope there will b6 a good deal of riding done the coming yeai*, and wa h o ^ to witness one lUoa-triOQs ezadiple of It jin our Mississippi Missionary Secretary. We want'him to mount hie hobby fordi-with and put on his spurs, and preach missions, and talk missions every day, and every where, with all his soul, might, mind and strength, yea, mrsue It as a favorite object with both zeal and

delight; and we intend, as we have been doing to make it one of our fkvorito hoiil^lea the coming year, as well as ohurch order, until the Baptists of Tennessee are thoroughly awakeB^, and warmed vp to the imporUnde of the work.

The fkot is that all the g m t reforms of the ages, all t|ie grandest achiovemeuts in the arts, and all the wonderfhl and beneflcent inventions and dhi« ooveries in the domain of science have been achieved by men who were oppose^ reproached, atid ridiculed by the msjjorlty of their cotempo-rariea ai rider^ oaeh of liis hobby, Ooperakus ||tidl

The second flact is, tliat uo great reform morals or reUgiott has ever been e f te te^BA f ^ «baas in clmrch or State haa ever eon emdtstiia vxaipt throui^'the persiateateflbrta of some oiwina% aai his coadJutarsTwho made tlwit paartleslar refbra or the correction of that one abuse the one Idea a«d object of his life ta aceompllsh-^ man ha ibihA bs in this respect, like the g r ^ aposUe to the QeatilM "this one thing I do." The reader wUl find as iUas* trious example of such a man in Wllberforee, of England. Men of this mind and mould, though benefactors of their raoo—men to Whoea meBMnis* succeeding gecerations pile the moaumental brasi; were Invariably held up as laughing stocks by thdr euvlous cotemporaries, and ridiculed and dwidsd by the brainless, unthinking multitudee as nme hobby riders.

But a little more than a generation since, thrae men resolved to wsge a csaieleas war against cer-tain pernicious practices* that were adhering to the denomination like barnacles to the 1ml of a noble ship, obetructlng Its progress. They did not con-tent themselves with writing two or three artldleea year, and preaching an occa^onal sermon agminst them lest they might be pointed at as *%obby rid-ers." bat for vears they wrote and talked, tbey preached and prayed, weekly and aneeasingly, against these evils, and they were indeed Iteld np to ridicule by their own brethren, and waroad against by ministers and editors,not a few,as Iwb-by riders," and the bringers-in of hew ways ^ t according to the customs of the fathers." Bat the result of ytxnJtf such "hobby riding" was that the whole denomination on the continent became int. pressed with their sentiment^ and millions of Bap-tisU were made to see the unscriptaralness a ^ evils Xof such practjces and disoonttnoe thank The names of Uiose men are already stereotyped In tfie history of their denominstion, while the names of those who opposed them have rotted.

From the history of progress in science and art, in politics and Christiaaity we learn that no one man can make any considerable impreaslon upon his age in any one of these departments unless he concentrates all the fires of his brain and heart with all the energies of hlaeoul upon some one idea he would inculcate or aome one object be would ac-compllah, with a peraistency and fixedness of pur-pose Uiat is irresistible—he must be a hobby rider. What illustrious "hobbyists" America has produced —what achievements in the realms of the sciences have they wrought! It is true one must luive brains to do this, and as true that the Iwainless will never attempt or appreciate it.

There is force In the reported saying of a dying Greek scholar, who had devoted hie whole life to the study of two Greek prepodtion% '<Had I my life to live over I wonld give it to the study of bnt one." Only a trueaoholar can appredate thia i v mark. Such a man may, nay, will, awaken oppo-sition apd this controversy, and perhaps viident mental agitation, but this will wake dp alumbering thought, liberate the mind from thebraaen shackles of pn^udice, expose the flimsy aophiatries and ftl-lacies of fUse reasoning in which it has bean an-sUved and oausa it, at hut, to rejoloa In the respltm-dent light of Uberated truth.

dead by- the Holy Spirit, and brought to apprehend Christ, and from him received the rcinlBslon of all sins, we were adopted by the Father as a child Into the heavenly fiamily and made Joint heirs wltli Jesus Christ, his ouly Son. By this adoption we were forever taken out from under law—all, any law—and placed under grace—we were freed from its power as well as Its penalty, etc. So that the apostle truly ealth, "The law hath no more do-minion over ns." The Christian, therefore, <-annot be under the moral law—the ten eommandments— or any law as a rule of life—but under tho law of love. God no louger treats him as a merciless over-seer does tbe slaves placed under his authority to compel them to <to their allotted tasks, but as a ten-der, loving father does tlie children of hie love. He may cAa«<eR,but not punUh them, and there is nothing to restrain his mercy. The Christian is not above or iieyond moral law. He will desire and endeavor outwardly to keepit, and bewill k _ it in the intention, and this will be accepted an< rewttirdjed of God. -- BRO.

written by Rev. Rlchstd Glover, Bristol, and purporting to be ptibllshed by The Beligloua Tract Society, was printed on psgei of T*e fiaptitt at Oct. XL 1881. Mr. Glover Uiere

M t h a t thedoctriiie, '"ITitit God istha Father of alfmen, witbout " and that he loves them ail with the "richast love," had been "kept ,ecret doee the world began till Jesus came." Yet aJmtist all true Christians feel that It destroys some of the fundsmcnUl truths which he and his ajMs-ties teach. I t denies the doctrine that 'Hhe chil-dren of the flesh are not tl>e children of God. Rom. I*: 8. It denies the doctrine that all "aro by nature children of wrath." Also the doctrine that sona of God liecorae so '•through faith in Ciirlst Jeans;" Gal. v : 26; John 1:12; also that they are iho«e who have iieeu begotten by God hlnwelf.— John Ui: S-B; 1 Pet. I : 3 ; who have been e«|>wlal-ly adopted by hiro.-Gal. Iv: JWJ; Kph. 1 : 5 ; who "through the sp'rit mortify the deeds of the btdy" and "are led by the Spirit of God."—itom. viil: i;i-14; that it is by the Sidrit they cry, "Abba, Fa-ther."—Rom. vlii: lt». It denies the doctrine that all who are sons of God are heirs of glory also.— Rom. viil: 17; Gal. ill: 26-29; EiJh. i : 5-11; I Pet. i j 4 " It denies the doctrine that those who are not renewed by God are "under tho cttr»e."—<}al. i ' i : 10; are exposed to "indignation and wrath."—Rom. Ii:'6; and, instead of being ehiMrcn of God, are children of Satan; "The good seed represents the

'children of the kingdom; but the tares a^e the chUdren of the wicked one;"—Matt, xill: 38. "If God were your Father, ye would love . you are of your father the devil . . When [one speaks a Ii^ he speaks of his own; for lie is a liar, and hia father Calso]."-John vi l ls42.«. When the Redeemer said (Matt, vi : 0), "After this man-ner, therefore, pray ye: Our Father," etc., he wan sddressing the disciples.-Matt, v : 2. Those, there-fore, who say Christ taught allj whether disciplcs— those begotten of God, or not, to say so, say what is contrary to fiwt and truth. Yet Mr. Glover is so reckless as to say that "any one" is Uiere "taught to approach the great God with such an address" as ^ u r Father; ' that "tAe Savtor't teacAtnff" is that "all men" may do ao. Not contcnt with this uatruth, he declares that those who, like Archbish-op Leighton, think this prayer suiUble Only for diiciple^-children of God by notv birtlw to whom, and. to none else, Christ taught It, "add to the things written in the book."—ltov.,xxil: U and he Implies that God will add to them the plagues written there. Leighton says: "The souship which emboldens us to draw near unto God as our Father is derived from hla only begotten Son;" because though God "U-lndeo<lour Pith ir as tlio Author of ourbdng." "Sin has mads" this natural relation froltleaa," so tlutl "in that eaUte our true name is

ITEMS FROM MIDDLE TENNESSEE.

WE recently spent a few days in Macon county, to <iiMiu1«i1 within the bounds of EllOU which is included within the bounds of Enon

AjRBOciatioH. Our busincMS there wat- to hold a series of meetings at

LIAKAVXTTE,

Commencing the 20lh of Nov. Owing to U.o un-expected development of smallpox, in town, we dosed our mooting, preaching only twice to small congregations. Lafayette is the county site of Macon, aurroundwl by one of the finest timber regions within flic State. As there are no railroads to facilitate t»io utility of those heavy forests, nu. merows factorien are springing up whicli will do vclop an enterprise horotoforo unknown in these regions. There IH an old, dllaiiidatod meeUng-houso in this county town called the Baptist church. Owing to its unniialrcd condition tho Christian or CampbelUfo mtotlng-honBe was se-curoil. There are but fow Baptists tlit-re. Our home was with Sister Johnston, a reader of tho Old Bapner. On leaving T.ftfayctte we concluded to visit our kiusman, Esq. G. M% Oakley, at

MINT'S X BO.\D8, Some twelve miles distant. Here wc siwnt»evnral days very pleasantly. SVe talked of the days of yore. Being of tho same age and raised together wo had muoh about which to converse. Moking tills head-quarters wo began to venture out amonr the people. The first place we violted was

IIEI,!, WOOD ACAUKMV, , Where found another one of our kinsmen, Eld Wm. Shelton, at tho head of a fine school, asslstod by his lady, Mrs. Hattic, in the literary depart-ment. Miss Jennie DIxon, of Brownsville, has control of the musical department. She has a very interesting class of sixteen pupils. The literary department numbers about seventy-five pupUs. Owing to the situation of this institution of learn-ing, its healthy cfintiate, it pure waters, and lU moVal surroundings, lU friends entertain the hlgh^ eat hopes of a permanent and successfOl iaItltuUon Fifty dollars wlli pay the wholo of a flve-mohtha so^lon irfclndlng tuition, board, lights, etc. Let the BaptisU of Macon county rally and support ttU school. The preeont instructors of this school are giving universal Batlsfactlon. Tho spring selslon begins the first Mondav in Feb.; 1883.

B ^ Shelton pressed os into serylco and we had to preach for him from Wednesday night until the Sunday nighi following. At the. present, Timber ttldgo Baptist ehureh occupies the academy. Lum-ber la on the ground for a now church. We wore liappy to meet with the brethron of this churc Such men a« Bren, Thos. Jonee and son, W. C. an Alford Glbbs and others make a strong church. As we preached in the academy at night only, we took advanUgo of the spare Umo at day and wen

OUiers had Joined, and qult«.» n u ^ .,, were forward for prayers. We v l s l t ^^pr^ i^ fb l i f two days; we wero put forward on botli-dayf to j preaoh. Wo felt the warmth of a praylb^ohwreh, It was good' to 1)0 tliere. This church bai a i n ^ ^ . hershlp of over one hundred and fifty, flroj D.' W. Smith, whose praise is ill all iho porches, liM l)«en pastof for tweaty-olglit yearji. The laat day of the , two we met wIUi then^ Bro. Smith statlouod near the door, and as the hrethcen came In, he Iniroduc-fid us by saying, "This is out- Bro. Oakley ti you toAak* the belt paperJn the WORLD, T B » Tav.VKSSRB BAPTIST, and 1 want yati io tako and read It, won't you?" Every male member present except two or three subscribW, Bro. Smith heading tlie list Why not all our pastflirs atation them-selves In front of their chnrohes and seo • v w j member as they edmf In. This way of paetors simply requesting frotri the ptilpU that tholr mem-bers would reW our denominational papers amounts to but lltUe. Let pastors make it a busl-ness, as did Bro. Smith, and succcsa will crown their effort s. Bro. Smith and othora toldua that the Baptists were the only uienomlnatlon meeting with success In effort mceUngsin all thai section. It was at Union that we met with the,following ministering brethren for tiie first time, W. H. Smith, J . L. Talmon, John McKinnIs, M.'B. Ram-sey and James Morris, the latter of whom recently olned the church of Christ. Ho had been a Metlt-

odlst preacher for years. Bro. Talmon came from the Campbell itos. These men have tho^ause at leart and will ere long be a great power in Enon

Association. .

I t was here that we met with Bro. J . M. Wll-Jams, Secretary of the Home Mission Board of Enon Association. He subrjilttedjln sabstahco, the following verbal report, which he desired publish-ed for tho benefit of those whom It may concern:

They pay tholr missionaries 11.00 per day; 120 in iJie t ^ s n , ry. Next meeting will be held at Hillsda^ Sator, day before tbe 4th Sunday in January,

During our stay in Macon we gathered ^atw^* Hat of subscribers. Upon the wholo we had quite a pleasant tlmo-gettlng lost only four tlme^--flnd-ing one namesake-and one PW^her who a d Jg ^ w L d hover preach that ehurchea should pay pastors-and now, after a cold drive of thirty mUes, we are seated in our atudy.

I did not like Ui*t, and lo went to luy giftiidraiher and complained of it. I shall sdvcr nit-get tlio smilo of the kind-hearted old gen* Ucman as ho said:

"Never mind, my boy: if you watch the sheep, you will have tlio shOep.'' -

"What ddCH granftH her mean by th<t?" I laldto to inysolf. "I dop't expect to have sheep." • My dMirea wore moderate; a fine buck worth h

hundred dollars waaas much as I ever aspired to. I could not exadly make out what ho moaat. but I had groat cOiiMenco in him, for he was • judge, andhad btTCu in Congress in Washington's time' So I (j0unludi'd 4t wa^ all right, and .W(,>nt back con* tenl«dijr to watch ihc sheep.

Tlllt PAT O* BKDKMmON. flUlIS day of the reiurreoUou of the deul and the

rapture of the living saints is calleil in the ScrlpUires THK DAY or UUB KKDtUl*T10N. It is properly SO calle<l because our perfect re-

demption, pnrchased by the precious biood of Christ, will not be consummated and made msni-fost until tliaidfty, for not until then will we ex-rhauge thesis bodies of our humiliation for glorious )M>dies Atshioned like unto tho glorious body of our liord Jesus Christ. Paul, wrilittg to the church at Philippi, says: "For our [ polUimtnoi, not conversation but reg I citi? whence also wo iitration as Is in heaven from re iooR for the Savior, the Lord Jesus .the body oned like Christ; who shsll change our vile body of our humiliation] that it mav be fksh: unto hi* glorious body, according to the working whereby he is abloevea to subdue all this unto l'a«il<|Miinta to this day as the time when the

uints wil bav through Christ, the victory over deaUi and hades; for the living righteous will not be touched by the sting ot death, aad tlM rightetras liead will be deliverad as "prieoaere of hoiie" from the euitody of hadu Into the giorious liberty of tb« children of God.

what we shall be; but we know-doth that when ».«• -vH fu, for we shall see him as he is.'*—1 John ill: i. not appear he shall appear, we shall be like him;

The souse of this will b« made clear by a more literal rendering.

**It hath not yet been made manife$t, or seen, what or how glorious we shall be." No saint has ever yet been glorified, and, therefore, msde fit for heaven, or to be presented before tlie Father and the holy angels, and when one Is glorified and pre-sented, at tliat same time all will be glorified to-gether.

This event is called the ''manifestation of the sons of God." "For the earnest expectation of the creation walteth for the man(fe»tn(ion qf the tdtts of Ood." —Rom. viil s 19, THE JUHOMCNT or aXWARDS, OB THE .fUSTiriCATlOK BY woaas.

It is when Christ comes for his saints that they will appear before hlin to be justified by their works and receive the Judgment of awards for all they have labored and endured, sacrificed and suf-ferad for him in this world. Then will the piO hle of the talents be fblfilied and the servant who made ten talents, by the faithful use of the talents entrusted, be made ruler oyer ten cities, and the oiie who made five, over five citieis, while the evil, who was only a professed servant, will ba left Siritb those whoso resurrection will be to shame and everlasting contempt. That there will be dif-ferent awards, positions of honor and glory accord-ing as our works are found to be, by the impartial Ju ae is recognized by the inspii writers under ,both dispensationa.

Peter say s: "And when the chief Slieplierd shall receive a crown of glory away. (1 Pel. v: 4.) Paul says: "Henceforth there Is la'd up for me a crown of righteousness^ which the I.,ord the righteous Judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appMring."— ai1m.lv: 8. How is it that ttotwlthftanding these dear and

explicit teachings of the aposUas, we constantly hear it (Wtm the Hps of our most learned niinlsteri>, editors and authors, as well as ganeralfyilrom those called unlearned, when speaking of departwl saint, "He has gone to his reward," or, "He has re-ceived his rewatd," "lie has raeeivad hla crown of glory," "He is reigning with Christ in heaven," ale. Do they not know that Christ has not yet been crowned, and that he Is not reigning In heai n, and aa Messiah will never reign there, but when he is crowned and reigns it will be on the throne of his father David, which was an earthly throiw ? IfanyChrisUans aranow crowned and in heaven, ovar whom, pray, are thi r raigtffil who are their subjects? Not God, nw tha and certainly not over one |noth ) Pirsmn has yet leoeived his crown, nor will any one until the ohirf Shepherd appears and shall have bMu crowned, and then all who are crowned will be crowned together with him, fwd when he takes hi* (ihiona, as Joint heirs wa will reeeiva onr thrones alsoand reign with him on the wrth and nowhere else.

There are many. Very many. Christians who i»rlll win no crown In that day, and very many Plflla-Uan mikt»Utr», po utps those moat popular in thit world, i indeed. Christians, who will have no re-ward there. They may ba saved, indeed, yet so as by fire—with their llfti only, bnt withoot a asm-blanoe of a reward of any kind.
