PROSPECTUS
THE BAPTIST.

'NE PROPOSE to publish WEEKLY
wv PAPER, devoted to the diffusion of
the principles of religion and the interests
3ot the Baptist denomination. We have
been moved to this undertaking by the
2sollcltatlons of brethren in various por-
3hons of this State, as well as of other
Estates, among the readers of the late
3Confeder0te BAPTIST, and by our own con-
'vlchon that q paper of high character
would contribute largely to the intellectual
Improvement, the religious progress and
3the general welfare of the churches. The
field is large, atfording ample room for all
sincere and Jealous laborers
The Baptist will be printed on sheet
about twenty-five by thirty-two inches, and
Twill contain twenty-four broad columns,
llegible, so that it may be read with com
fort, even by the aged. Its entire mecha-
snical execution will be of the highest order.
3Our columns will be enriched by cores
1pondenco and contributions from the
jother Southern States, and, occasionally,
from Europe and our missionary stations
ABROAD. The entertainment and instruc-
7tion of the young especially the child
Sren-wlll not be forgotten; and our vene-
3ble friend, "Uncle Fabian" so we'll and
jfavorably known to the readers of the
3Contederote Baptist will resume his labors
lin their behalf. In short, we possess all
sthc facilities requisite to produce paper
!of the first rank. AS such, we offer it to
jour brethren, and solicit their generous
3co-operation.
The Baptist will be issued as soon as a
sufficient number of subscribers have been
secured.
TEhMs-S3 a Year, payable on the rccep-
5tlon of the first number.
All communications will be addressed to

Dies Irm.


In this translation, the aim has been to
make it, line by line, literal; to give tho
exact idea Of every line-no more, no less
and as help to this, to render the Latir
into simple, monosyllable English, the
original measure, not suited to monosyila
BILE, had to be given up:
A day of wrath and woe that day!
The world to ashes melts away;
SO David and the Sybil say.
How great our trcmor, sad our fear,
When stern the Judge of Men draws ear
And straight to view brings all things
clearl
The trump, with spread of wondrou
sound
Thro' graves i'll cv'ry region found,
Doth bid all souls the Throne surround.
Death stands in stupor, Nature too;
Creations dead rise up anew,
To give their Judge an answer due.
The records in the Book are sought,
Containing all, decd, word and thought,
For which the worlds to judSmen
brought.
Thus when the Judge His seat hath taken
Whatevers hid shall be made plain.
And nothing unavcnged remain.
What am / then, poor wretch, to say?
To whom as guardian shall pray,
When scarce the just can sec their way?
King of tremendous Majestyl
Who sav'st thino own, they grace mad
free;
OH source Of holy love, save me.
O loving Jesus! think on me,
Though Of my woes the cause be;
o! lose me nos, that day, from thee.
Thou me didst seek, with weary care;
For me thy heavy cross didst bear;
Shall toll be lost, SO great, so rare?
Great Judge of vengeance, just and true!
For gift of pardon free l sue,
Before that day of stern review.
I groan alou !, as one accused;
My face by conscious crime suffuscd;
Thy mercy grant, tho oft abused.
Twas thou madest Mary free from sin,
The dying thief true life to win,
And gav'st me hope to theirs akin.
Unworthy are all prayers of mine;
Thy goodness make on me to shine,
Lest l, in lasting flames, repine.
Among thy sheep let me find room,
And, sever'd from thy goats in doom,
On thy right hand my place assume.
The cursed to confusion given,
To fiercest flames by sentence driven,
Call me among thy blest in Heaven.
Fore Thee I bend in pray'r profound,
My broken heart to ashes ground;
My death-bed let thy love surround.
Sad day of tears for sinful flesh,
That from earth's ashes springs afresh,
When culprit man for doom shall stand:
Him spare, God! hold thy just hand

The Mississippi in 1871.

It was in the year of 1911 and
1872 that SO many earthquakes oc-
CURED in the Southern and Western|
country, causing villages to tumble|
in ruins, an entire change in the face]
of the country, and vast destruc-
ton of property. On the line of the
Mississippi, particularly, one of these
dreadful phenomena of nature oc-
CURED in those years, which was dis
tinctly felt in st. Louis and caused
much alarm to its inhabitants.
An eye witness, who was on fiat
boat at the time, on his way to New!
Orleans with a load of produce, and
afterward returned to St. Louis, de-
scribed the scene as heart-rending,
and filed every living creature with
horror. His boat at the time was
about forty miles below New Ma
drid.
The first shock took place in the
night of December 16, 1911, while
the boat was lying at the shore, in
company with several others. Att
this period there was danger appre- !
hended from the Southern Indians,
it being soon after the battle Of Tip
pecanoe, and, for safety, several
boats kept in company for mutual
defence, in case of an attack. In|
the middle of the night there was a!
terrible shock and jarring of the
boats, so that the crews were ALL
awakened and hurried on deck With
their weapons of defence in their
hands, thinking the Indians were!
rushing on board. The ducks :,
geese. and various other aouaticI
birds, whose numberless fiocks werel
quietly resting in the eddies of the
river, were thrown into the greatest
tumult, and with loud screams ex-
pressed their alarm in accents of
terror. The noise and commotion|
soon became hushed and nothingI
could be discovered to excite appre- 1
hension, SO that the boatmen con1
cluded that the shock was occasioned|
by the falling in Of largo mass of
the bank of the river near them. As|
soon as there was light enough to|
distinguish objects, the crew were all
up making preparations to depart
Directly loud roaring and kissing
was heard, like tho escape of steam
from boiler, accompanied by the
most violent agitation of the shores,
and tremendous boiling up of the
waters of the Mississippi, in huge
swells, rolling the water and tossing
the boats SO violently that the men
could, with difficulty, keep their feet.

was tolerably clear, being rather low,
changed to reddish hue and be-
came thick by the agitation of the
earth beneath, was covered with
foam, which, gathering into masses
the size of barrel, foated along on
the trembling surface. The earth on
the shores opened in wide assures,
and, closing again, threw the water,
sand and mud in huge jets higher
than the tops of the trees. The at

Total ABsTINENcE.-A young lady,
who was q firm advocate of total alb
istinencc, when riding from her fa-
;ther's country seat to neighboring
Village, met n young man on foot,
lwho was carrying a suspicious looking
bug. She at once reined in her
horse and asked him what he had in
his jug.
Looking up with comical leer,
he simply winked one eye and smack
led his lips, toindicate that itcontain-
led something good.
The young lady, supposing he
meant alcohol, Immediately began
ito talk temperance, but her auditor
requested the privilege Of first asking
ijust one simple little question.
"What is it?".she Inquired.
cit is this" lie replied. ''Why is
smy Jug like your side-saddle?"
She couldn't tell.
Its because it holds a ged-ou, !"
said he
"What trihingp' exclaimed the in
sdignant young lady, and then con
stinued: Young man, do you not
sperceivc-'
"Just one more question: inter
srupted her auditor, ''and then Tn
done Why is my jug also like the
assembly room of q female seminary
lat roll-call?'
Tim sure I don't know" petu-
slantly replied the young lady.
FWell, it's because it's full oNusses, :
said the incorrigible auditor.
The fair lecturer touched her spi-
!rlted horse with the whip and was
soon out of hearing of the rude
3young mans laughter.

Hard Shell Sermon.

Hard Shell Sermon.
"There's nine men standin' at the
8dore; they all sed they'd take shugar
in ther'n.''
Sich, friends and bre, herring, was
the talk, in a wurdly cents, wunst
common in this our ainshunt land
but the dais is gone by, and the sun
runs dry, and no man can say to his
5naber, hoo art thou, man, and will
you take any more shugar in your
3kaughey?
But the words of our tex has q diff
grunt and more pertickerIeer meening
than this. Thar they stood at the
jdore on q cold wintur's morning, two
Babtiss and two Methodies and five
Lutharians, and the tother one was o
publican. And they all with one
vols said they wouldn't dirty their
feet in dram shop, but if the pub
lican would go and git the drinks
they'd pay for EN-.
And they all cried out and every
( man sed, ''I'll take mine with shugar,
for it won't feel good to drink the
| stuff without sweetnin." SO the
spublikin marched in, and the bar
Keeper sed, twhat want YEP" and he
answered and sed, GA drink" GLOW
will ye have?" ''Plane and straight, -
says he; ''for it amt no use wasting
shugar to circumsalivate akafortis.
But there's nine more standing at the
9dore, and they all sed they'd take
sshugar in ther'n.'
Friends and brethering, it amt
3only the Ticker of sperits that is

If we desire angels for guests we
must prepare for them, and look
