HISTORY of BAPTIST CHURCH.
DIR. Whitsitt to Spend Some Time
Abroad, Preparing for This Work.

DR.. Whitsitt is to write history Of the
Baptist Church, and will spend some time
abroad collecting data for use in this un-
dertaking.
The Louisville Courier Journal says.
touching this subject:
DR.. William H. Whitsitt, late President
Of the Baptist Theological Seminary, has
made known TO his friends his plans, for
the next year, at least. Next Wednesday
he will leave for Europe. While abroad
he will visit all the great libraries of Eng
land and the Continent, and from the
data obtained will write a complete his
tory Of the Baptist Church, which he viii
complete upon his return TO this country.
That the work will be a scholarly, fin
ished and minutely accurate effort Is a
foregone conclusion. He Is divine OF
splendid intellect, and so high is his rep
utation as a scholar that soon after his
resignation from the Southern Baptist
Seminary his services were sought for by
several colleges.
In view OF the fact that DIR. Whitsitt
win soon leave a circle in which he was
loved and revered, some Of his friends
have arranged for a farewell banquet 10
be given in his honor at tho Gait House
next Tuesday night, September 18th. The
following letter, sent to DR.. Whiisitt, eX-
plains itself:
Rev. William II. Whitsitt, d. d., LII D.,

IS wen. no pursuit 81 its Kind can COM
pare with stamp collecting. The names.
race. civilization, great men, and great
events OF the most obscure country on
the globe are brought directly 10 the
notice OF the philatelist. Many notions
Illustrate great historical events on their
stamps. such as the Columbian Series OF
the United States. tho Omaha Series
and our present war revenue stamps;
the English Queens Jubilee Series, and
many others of a like character. Great
men and women come In for the bulk OF
stamp illustrations. Wherever Eagiisn
is known will be found some one familiar
with the stamps OF England and her
colonies. bearing the head Of Queen VIC
toria. The names and customs. the pro-
ducts. ana people. OF many countries are
portrayed on their stamps.
The familiarity with colors Is OF great
advantage TO any one, and the average
collector can easily distinguish the
fairtest shades.
As a work Of art. the stamp collection
has no equal, exhibiting as it does the
very perfection OF the worlds steel en-
craving and lithographing. The great
variety Of shades and tints make a stamp
collection a thing TO be admired by any
one who has the slightest appreciation
Of the beautiful. The ability to distin-
guish between stamps printed from wood
blocks. steel. or autographed is a valua-
bic acquisition in itself. and this every
stamp collector Is able 10 do.
IN olden days stamps were stuck fast
in an old scrap-book, no attention being
paid TO dates or values. Now the collec-
tor can purchase elaborate albums, pro-
viding q space for every stamp ever
issued by any country. These albums
give much valuable information relative
to the government, history, geography,
people, money values. and other matters
| of q like character Of the various coun-
tries. The Gags and coats OF arms of every
country. with portraits OF their rulers,
are also given.
COLLECTORS ARE INCREASING.
AS an investment, a collection OF
! stamps is splendid. Stamps that have
! long since been supplanted by new issues,
/ daily become scarcer and scarcer, as the
number Of collectors IS steadily on the
increase. thus always making the demand
! far greater than the supply. That stamps
arc valuable the Post-Ofce Department
| fully recognizes. As the principal traffic
in stamps is through the mails. frauds
are always in evidence. but the active CO.
operation Of the post-Oiiice authorities
reduces the amount of swinding to q
minimum
Many millions of dollars are invested
in stamps New York has its stamp dis
trict on Nassau street, just as it has dis
trlcts devoted TO other lines of business
! In New York. Boston. Chicago. Paris

ing published in this city by Messrs.
Franklin Stearns, Jr., and August Dietz.
The stamps of the United states, In
Gliding those of the Confederacy, are, as
a whole. the most valuable in the world,
owing to the vast army Of collectors in
this country and their superiority In de-
sign and workmanship. and also their
freedom from speculation. Many small
countries support themselves by means
OF their stamps disposed Of TO collectors.
The late y. +. Seebeck, Of the Hamilton
