From the Episcopal Recorder.
ON THE DEFRAVITY OF NAN.

Deprayty is not scrptural term. Cor
ruptlon is. This latter word is usually ap-
piled to the body a; and means the state
after death. When applied 10 The soul, it is
equivalent with moral death an entire des.
titution Of holiness.
There is psssage in S.. Paurs letter
to the Colossiaus, which seems to settle the
dispute about the cx'en. oil mans deprayity
or corruption You whouers sometime
aEenated, and enemies in your minds, By
scicked works, get noao hath he recon-
eiled." The apostle is addressing himself
to a Christian church, the members of which
he now calls " saints" and 1" faithful breth-
ren," who sometime before their con-
version" and " new creation in Christ. Je-
sus," were alenated and enemies in their
minds, by wicked works"
Reader. weigh well the import of these
words. You are man, partaker Of the
same nature. Let US try to get right
knowledge of ourselves.
That which the Holy Ghost, by the pen
OF The apostle Paul, has caused 10 be written
!or our learning, deserves careful and ser.
,ous consideration. He tells US that the
:'ossans who believed in Christ, were,
ore their reconciliation to God " aiena-
Aad enemies in their minds" What

PROPOSA AIS.
FOR PUBLISHING A
Temperance Journal.
IN COLUMBIA, sc.

TVHE State Temperance Society of South
Il Carolina, at the late Anniversary Meet.
lng in Columbia, resolved to establish If prac-
ticable, Weekly Newspaper, devoted to
the cause of Temperance. The Executive
Committee, whose duty it is to carry this
resolution into effect, beg leave to address the
several Societies and individuals, in the State
engaged in this good cause, upon this interes'
ting snbject.
The increasing prevalence and ruinous
effects OF the use of intoxicating liquors, call
loudly for some decisive measures to rouse
public attention to this direful evil, and units,
the counsils and efforts of the benevolent and
patriotic, in arresting its progress. No means
seem more wisely adapted to accomplis h
their purpose, than such dissemination of
facts and statements upon the subject as
would be effected by such publications. 9 The
labours, experience and investigation of the
friends of Temperance in the Northern States,
have accumulated treasures acknowledge and
arguments IN this cause. But these valua
BE materials are excluded from our commune
ty. by their being mingled with speculations
hostile in our domestic institutions. The
way therefore, in which the interesting details
and powerful reasonings, contained in the
Temperance publications of the north, can be
given to the public here, is through the columns
Of the proposed paper. 1t is thus manifest
that the best interests Of our State, and the
progress of the Temperance Reformation so
vitally important to pubic safety and happiness
will be most effectualy promoted by general
circulation of the Temperance Advocate.
The following plan will regulate the publica.
tion. 1t will contain
|. Original communications and domestic
intelligence relative to the general subject of
Intemperance.
II. Copious extracts from Books, Pamphlets
and Newspapers, published in other states TO
promote the Temperance cause.
III. A weekly summary OF general and DO
mestic new s, prices current, &c.
Asthe friends of Temperance, the expected
patrons ofthis Paper, belong to different polIt.
cal parties and religious denominations, all
discussions of controversial or sectarian
character, both as to politics and religion, will
be scrupulously excluded.
The general design Of the publication is to
furnish every family In the State, dcsirous Of
obtaining it, with full information and authen.
tic documents as to dreful evils of lntemper-
ance, and the necessity Of Reformation.
AS the commencement of such a PublIca"
can only be warranted by large subscriptlon
a strong appeal is made to the officers OF Tenn
perance Societies, and the friends OF the cause
to whom this Prospectus may be sent, to use
prompt and active exertions TO obtain as Eany
subscribers as possible.
