PROSPECTUS.

1.-THE Free Christian Commonwealth"
Published weekly at Louisville, Kentucky, under
the editorial management of Rev. STUART ROB-
IYsoN, is a Family Religious Newspaper, devoted
exclusively to the dissemination of religious in
teligence, to instruction in practical religion, to
the exposition of true Evangelical Professionalism,
and more particularly to the exposition and de-
fence of the great gospel doctrine of the non
political character of Christ's Kingdom on earth,
against what the editor conceives to be the de-
fections of the American Protestant churches
during the past twelve years.
While, in accordance with the editors charac-
ter and position as publicteacher IN the church,
The FREE CHRISTIAN COMMONWEALTH will be
Presbyterian in its general spirit and teaching,
and have special reference to the detections of
his own church, yet in no partisan sense will it
be unconditional; but aim so to discuss the
great truths of practical religion and the great
principles of free unsectlonal, on'pohtcal
church, as TO instruct and unite true evangelical
Protestants of all denominations In support OF
the American theory of nOn-political church
and non ecclesiastical state, and In defence OF
this truth against the dangerous tendencies OF
the times.
Having at much sacrifice every way kept open
a channel for the testimony of true Protestants
against coniounding the secular and the ecclesi
astical powers, during the troubles of the late
civil war, the editor now appeals to the friends
of truth and righteousness to support him in the
effort to introduce into the Christian households
of the country every week, instead Of every other
week as heretofore, paper, which aims, not tc
ansuSe them with mere religious gossip, but with
