TThe Feiciana Wing published at
Clinton, La, suggests that the funds, which
will come into the possession ofthe Method
st church South, by the recent favorable
decision of the suit Of the Southern division
of the church VS.. the church North, be used
in the erection Of an extensive Book con-
Germ at jackson La, in the immediate vicni
ny of Centenary College. It says: "The
Centenary College, deservedly an object of
pride to the pious followers of John Wesley
will receive new impetus from the cstab-
lishment under the classic shade of its walls
of a vast printing establishment such as the
church will have the means to establish.
The book concern will send forth its Bibles
and its tracts--the college will send forth
men competent to explain the meek and
christian texts" Fts
The Wing urges that the plan which it
proposes be recommended by the annual
conference, now in session at Clinton, to the
members of the church South at large.

CARRIERS ADDRESS.

Indulgent readers 10 l stand once more,
A New Years herald, at your friendly door;
= come and bring my greeting in my hand,
'And pause a moment, waiting your
command.
And while | loiter, give me time to say
A word or two, on this, our New Years day.
Like him of "Ayr," can't just determine,
Whether it will be hymn, song, or sermon,
But be it what it may, that comes before US,
hope at least you will gingle in the chorus.
Old time has turned her annual glass you see,
And notcheG another year, for you and me.
He paused at midnight in his swift career,
4nd eighteen ifty-two, stretch'd on his bier,
lhen hearsed the corpse, and with a thrust
he cast,
Corpse, bier and hearse to the sepulcher
past,
And returning, welcomed, with obseqnis
tone,
Young fifty two, into ceborn throne;
We hail him too--and with heartfelt
cheer
Bid him joyous, prosperous, and happy
Year
Oh. may auspicious gales play Ger his
bed, 49,
And breezy Spring, around him twine her
arms,
And soon with flowers, deck his youthful
head,
And captivate him, with her healthful
charms.
May Summers pleasures throng his shad-
ed path,
And soft repose relieve his langued care
Refreshing vigor wait him at the bath
And perfume hang upon the gentle air.
May AUTUMN come with plenty in her
hand,
10 fill his basket and mend his store,
That he may scatter gladness DER the land
And win the blessings of the happy poor!
AT length when Winters frosts-his vitals
fire,
And chills his brow with lines of icy white,
Shakes his giant frame, with blasts Of North
ern ire,
And steals his senses and seals uphis sight.
May he in peace, consent his throne to loose
AS eighteen fifty-two steps in his shoes.
10 that Almighty God who pours
4 His blessings on CoIumbia's shores,
We humbly bow our greatful knee
And hnmbly pray what dim success,
May through the present be no less;
Kind patrons | through mud and sleet--
Well stored, have brought to you our sheet;
Through storms have borne it to your door,
The tidings strange of many shore;
Congress, news, and all that's funny,
Deaths, marriages and money;
Tales poetry, and every thing.
