GENERAL INTELLIGENCE.
BUSY TO PRESERVE UNION.

1t appears by the following article that
very special labors are catered upon by
some of our Boards to pacjfy the Slave
holders. They begin to find that neither
an occasional condemnation Of" The meas
ures,, Of their Abolition brethren, oy in-
dividuals, nor q declared neutrality on the
part of the Boards, promise to col down
the fiery spirits Of the South. Mark well
the facts exposed below. Brother He
man Lincoln has actually gone; brother
Solomon Peck stands ready to 60. And
then brother John Peck is already there,
rather to promote union than TO collect
funds - brethren Kingsford and Wilcox
have done large service for their rcSpec-
tive Boards; brother Ira NJ. Allen has
tried his sngenuity faithfully to disabuse
himself of the Southern charge of his be-
ing an Aboltionlst, and the Three Boards
have formally issued their circulars. OF
manifestos, to repress the action of their
AboIitoa brethren and to hush the south
ern storms but all to liNIe purpose
What can be done2 Shall we not now
consent to be silent, and so give the de,
sired quiet. -Christ5on Reflector.
Tie Foreign Board and Georgia.
The Baptist Board of Foreign Missions
have returned an answer 10 the Executive
Committee of the Georgia State Conven

DEAR BRETHREN,-Your letter ofthe
9TH inst. was read at a meeting of The
Board of Foreign Missions yesterday, anc
received grave consideration. The resuI
was strong conviction Of the desirable
ness of personal interview with The
Committee, and as arrangements have
been made by our highly esteemed Trea
surer to visit the South this winter, he
was requested to make to you such ex
plantations of the principles and designs O
the Board as the case may require. 1t
the event of his failing to go as far as
Georgia, from i'll health or other circum.
stances, the Foreign Secretary Is his a!
ternate. Mr.. Lincoln left Boston for the
south this morning.
In reference to this, the chairman Of the
Georgia Elk Com. says:
You here discover an agent is to b
sent to conciiiate our feelings. This wa
altogether unnecessary. Baptists o
Georgia have no desire to cultivate IN
friendly feelings with their brethren OF tht
North or with any others. A very few
plain, simple words, would have satisfied
Us long ago. Why did we not receive
them?
If the object of the Board in sending
their delegate to US, is to try to steer he
tween US and the aboitionists, and main
ltain the cooperation of both, they Nigh
well have spared themselves the erpens
and trouble. In this crusade against US

A grammar having fallen in their way,
they expressed a wish 10 study it. They
talk much about studying geography, and
