Brother MURRAY: There is very great
evil to be opposed, the removal OF which IS
attended with great difficulty. The evil is
that of church members straying away 10 the
meetings of other denominations, while reg |
ular meetings are being held in their own
church. II is not uncommon that meeting
designed and calculated 10 attract attention,
will not only draw away the minimizing and
unconyerted multitude, but church members
will leave their own meetings on the Sab
bath, while their pastor is arduously laboring
10 do them good, and even on the regular
communion day of their own church. There
are two very important evils attending this
course.-Firs;: Those who thus stray away,
lose nearly all the benefit Of the preaching
Of the word BY their pastor, who (if he does
his duty) is laboring TO build up The church
in the faith ofthe gospel. They are not mate
rally benefited by the preached word because
they do not hear il in its parts or connexions.
These members do not know that certain
important truths, designed for their good,
have ever been enthusiastically: They
show, either that they connected themselves
with q church without knowing or caring
what their sentiments were, or On alarming
recklessness of the truth. If il makes any
difference what church man joins, it also
makes difference what meeting he ordina
: rly supports. If it is importont that mer
subscribe TO truth by joining particular
church, it is also important that they supper
, that truth by maintaining the meetings o
!, that church. Persons thus s,rayine, are lik
bird leaving her own nest, and droppin:
into another ard another, thinking that
!, makes no difference what nest they are in,
: il only be nest. think persons must tax
this course either 10 CRAFTY vain curiosity
or pass Sabbath easily, to save fatigue O
self or horses, or from total want Of regar
> for any religious principles.
/ The difficulty of opposing this evil arise
J, from the fact that when we preach again,
9 this course, it will, by some, be called secta
II rianism. II is so called by those who ar
j guilty ofthe wrong, although they are taugf
j that il is their duty to attend the meetings
}, any of the evangelical denominations, hel
d in the region, 1rhen they cannot attend the
o1rn meetings. What can be done TO reno,
y this evil? What ought pastors and churcl
y es to do in such cases2 -.

CHURCH CONSTITUTED.

By request, an ecclesiastical council con-
vened in Essex village, Essex county, New
York, on the 2Slh ult., to consider the pro-
priety Of recognizing number of persons
living in that region, as Church OF Christ.
The council being organized, eighteen pei
sons applied to be recognized as church,
The council having examined their creden-
tails, articles Of faith and covenant resolved
unanimously to recognize the eighteen per-
sons above named, as "The Baptist Church
in Essex Village" The church is located
in rather an important place, and their pros
poets of success are favorable. But they are
small band, and much need the prayers Of
sister churches. Their articles of faith and
covenant are those adopted by the N. Hamp-
shire State Convention, and published in the
Encyclopedia of Religious knowledge. The
council were more sanguine in the belief
that the efforts OF this little church will be
successful. because Of the determination they
expressed to adhere to certain principles and
practices, under the neglect of which many
churches are severely suffering. These were
contained in resolutions passed by the church.
They were passed, not as expressive Of any
doctrine not comprised in their articles Of
faith, but 10 present that doctrine in man
nerincapable of being misunderstood or neg
lected with impunity. The following are
the resolutions:
Resolred, l. That no person is entitled
10 membership in this church, who does not
totally abstain from the use, as beverage
Of all intoxicating liquors.
2. That no head of family is entitled tc
membership in this church, who does moi
habi'ually read the Scriptures, and pray IN
his family.
/ 3. That no person is entitled to member
! ship in this church, who is not decidedly ia
vorable to the benevolent institutions of the
day.
4. That in the opinion Of this church, II is
the duty o. all its members, old and Young
male and female, as they have opportunity.
promptly TO take part in the exercises of pray.
er and conference meetings; and that this
church require its members so to do.
These resolutions, strictly enforced, would
do much. They would wipe the foul stain
of intemperance from the church-repair the
many broken-down and shamefully neglect.
ed family -altars-cause mighty stream Of
holy benevolence to be constantly flowing
into the the treasury of the Lord-and throw
