Mr.. RyssstI.--In looking over a
,sa,xDie collection of books, il the Red
W oo .4,arary, in the town of Newport,
s, se a Rhode Island, / az cidcntally
tooa ap = sermon preached il the town
OF Boston, in the year 1853, by JOHN
(ALLRNDAa, A. M. pastor Of Baptist
Church i'll newport, at the ordination OF
Mr. JERRMIAH CoNDY to The pastoral
care OF the Baptist Church IN boston (;
and was highly gratiied with tho liberal
sentiments which pervaded the whole dis
course, but more especially in finding that
free Communion was fundamental arti-
Gle in the creed ofthe first Baptist church
established in this Commonwealth, which
has, however, since been exploded. Yet
sincerely believe the time of catholic il
Illumination is rapidly accelerating. The
learned Divine alter earnestly intoxicating
TIC duty of all Christians loving one a.
mother as brethren observes, but 81 have
,respassed too much upon your patience
already, and Shall therefore only beg leave
toadd, that if that glorious principle VIII oh
was fundamental article in the constitu-
ton Of the first Baptist Church, gathered
in this province, could be fully acted up
on, we might with the almost propriety,
join the heavenly host and sing, Glory
TO God in the highest, Peace on Garth,
and good will towards and among men.
For they declared in their Church Cove
nant, " That union to Christ was the
sole ground Of their communion with
each other, and that they were ready to
accept OF, receive to, and hold cornmun-
ion with all such, as in judgement ofchar-
ity, were fellow members with them in
their head Chlist Jesus, though differing
in such controversial points as arc not alb

CONGRESS.

Iron, the National lnfeHigencer, Dee. ~.
The question on the naked proposition
for the admission Of the state of Missouri
into the Urion, was yesterday settled by
a vote in the Honse oi Representatives;
on which occasion, i, was decided, that
Missouri, as now constituted, should not
be admitted into the Union. Whethcr
she would be admitted 40 differently
constituted, is question to be decided
when the resolution (containing an ex-
ception OF any provision Of the Constitu-
ton of Missouri, if any such there be,
which contravencs particular clause in
the Constitution Of the United States)
which has passed the Senate, and is now
before the House of Representatives,
shall be acted upon. We apprehend
that the vote OH that resolve will not
widely differ trom that which was yester-
day taken. As many friends as will be
gained by the exception in. That feature,
will probably b. lost by it, some mem.
bers considering it as snrpusage merely,
neither adding or detracting from the force
ofthe resolution, and others viewing it
as concession of principle.
On this subject, as it now presents it.
scF, we will offer but few remarks.
The question which has been decided
negatively in the House of Representa-
YES, is NOT, in any respect, the same as
that which was agitated at the last session
OF Congress. 1t is question admitting
Of 4 difference of opinion, which we have
high authority Tor SAYING, is not in all
cases necessarily a difference of principle.
We do not mean to say, that the feelings
which displayed themselves at the last
session did not at all opera.e on this
more recent decision. We believe that
they bid not operate, sensibly and insen.
siby, on the minds Of the members Of
both Houses. But their influence han
been felt without being avowed.
We are induced to believe, however,
that but for the clause inserted in the
constitntion of Missouri respecting free
negroes, the constitution would have
been accepted by Congress, if not with
out division, least without hesitation.
The friends of Missouri had prevented
her restriction at The last session, in the
only particular in which there was any
dispute re- pectiug her; and il ,yas due
from the people Of Missouri to those
who hsd stood 10y thcm in the hour Of
trial, ma they should forma constitution
agn1si which nc plea Of exception
could be ;asen; II advisedly inserted.

Ep.Rs
We observe that fires begin to make
ravages IN various parts or the co,,ntry,
though none very extensively calamitous
have yet taken place, since the present
winter commenced. The inhabitants OF
town built Of such extremely combusli-
bic materials as this, cnanot be too fre-
quently admonished To- observe the Vt
most caution in the use Of an e.emen. so
uncomfortable, and so destructive in its
progress, as that Of fire. The origin Of
calamitous fires is usually criminal neg
ligence, or a fear Of mourning expense,
by proper prevsntatives. The practice

was the less reason for inserting it, mas
much as the omission to insert it would
not have impaired the powers OF the state
in this respect, and its insertion could not
confer them, if not beforciuhcrent in the
people.
