"MY BREETHRING:-The is kinder would
be preachers now iniestin our countree. They
it wus than the locusses which infested that old
countree, Babylon, I believe it war. These
preachers says, that the elect may fall from grace
and arter oil be casterway (spit.) Why sich
preachers is permitted to preach, and to insult
the elect couldn't tell il war to think until next
grass-time; but one thing, me brethren, I can tell
these preachers hant never tasted of the power
Of the tother world, or they wouldent be arter
thnkin that the dear children could be led as.ray
by the inemy OF their souls (spit) Brethren my
heart has bin panied as have heared of these
preachers decayin the elect themselves, and the
Lord his gin me an eTgunent TO erturn uln, and
he gin me tex, which he afterwards gin to one
of their prophets also, aud the tex reato sand so
they stopped it up (spit.) The only difficulty
is that the tex hant bin translated as it orter to
hay bin, and don't gin the whole meanin of the
prophet, and you don't see the subject in all its
cir-cum. .iear-rence. The rcadin that the Lord
sin me, and which reckin is in the original Ian
guage lf 1t amt it ought to bel SIS and SO they
oloPpSu 'uS A"oois uP t7pitJ lAtu nOWy utclii-
ren, with this tex, and ergument gin me will
bile up ther false doctrine worsner pot er soap,
and Pie beat il over the head worsner Sally Smith
beat Sam Pfichet with the broom stick, when he
tried to kiss her. And here it are This world
am great big brier patch, and the sinner he am
a rabbit, and the minister of the Gospel he am
hound, and the Lord he am a huntsman, and the
gospel am holler log lspit.) Thdminister, which
am hound, he smell about and about, aud around
ali the old logs, until he git on track of Sinner
which am a rabbit. and he run him around, and
around, and around, and around, and around, and
around, and AROUND. and a-r-o-ll-n-d. and he
keeps sunnin him around, und uround, md around,
until the rabbit he gifts tired aud takes refuge in
the holler log of the gospel! (spit and the hound
he lay down by ther log; and he keeps the rabbit
| in ther log, and arter while the huntsman he
come along, and he see ther hound er lying by the
holler log; and he see the rabbit and he take a
| plug and put in ther log, and in ther log, now,
me brethern, the rabbit are in the log, and the
plug in the log, and the rabbit be cant lspit)
| git out unless some body take the plug cut, and
| nobody taking the plug out; therefor the rabbit
stay in the log. Now, my brethren, don't tha;
prove the doctrine of final perseverance! Don't il
make er smash of these false preachers worser
smash than the tree made of Brother Carpenters
COW aud calf when it fell on ums III it warnt sc
| conjurious to mans institution to preach thS
gospel Id foller these preachers, and run um Out
of the United States away down to Mississippi
and If they war to decave the Mississppians, il
wouldent make any difference, tcf they're expudi-
| ated and cant be saved.
