To say that this splendid work Of
science and art is finer aud better than
ever is stating it mildly. The demand
for il is far beyond all previous years.
To say that such results, reaching
through THIRTY YEARS, are not based
upon sound sense and usefulness, is an
insult TO the intelligence Of the millions.
Prof. Hicks, through this great Alma
nae. and his famous family and scienti-
fic journal, WORD AND WORKS, Is doing

Editor Herdid:-A correspondent Of
the Farmyille Herald, who resides nj
Spring Garden, on the 18th Of October,
attended meeting ola body he de-
dominates lizard shell or Primative
Baptists." at place known a. "Moun-
tain SPRING" This body, as he states.
after the sermon, and communion, Oh
served the rite Of EJECT washing, (which
to him was a novel church service.
The preacher prefaced the performance
of this ceremony by the command Of
Christ after having washed his dis.
ciples feet. "If / then, your Lord and
master. have washed your feet, We
ought also to wash one another's feet. "
Your correspondent asks why Ian
guage so direct, and a command so
emphatic, should not be observed by
all professed followers Of Christ, and
seems to call upon some preacher to
answer as to the neglect. AS probably
the Oldest Baptist preacher in this vi.
cinity, and the only surviving member
of the Presbytery Of the Appomattox
Association Of thirty-fve years ago, l
have felt inclined to say a word or
two with reference to this practice Of
"feet washing which was observed as
an ordinance equally binding as that
of the supper, and, it may be, is still
observed.
Some five years ago, a Presbyterian
mission church was erected in this
place, and on its completion, Rev. Mr..
Miller, Of the Presbyterian church here
and myself were invited to take part in
a meeting held by the colored Presby-
terry Of this section, under the auspices
of the mission. Bro. Miller gave an
address on the policy Of the Presby-
terrain church. ] had aided i'm the lay
ing Of the cornerstone Of the building,
aud after some remarks as to the new
structure, proceeded to set forth some
Of the objects for which a church edifice |
was erected, and the order to be OBJ
served, based upon the ordinance oftie |
supper and the washing by Christ Of
bis disciples feet
Christ, stated, had established his
house, had given his disciples bread al
bis table, and taught them if washed
by his blood, and thus incorporated as
MS body, they needed but to keep
heir feet clean, or to maintain an Of
ierly walk. He had abolished jewish
ordinances. They were to bring into
his house nothing to delile it Of world
mess or ceremonials, or aught save what
ie had taught them that thus, as re
presenting his body, they shOuld pre-
ent themselves as one Of the apostles
las expressed it, ga sacrifice holy and
acceptable to God"
send you this, Mr.. Editor, as ex-
PRESTON Of my view Of what this ac-
ion and command ofChrist is designed
o convey, as understood by the great
'ody of Baptists in the past, and 50
ar as know, at present.
Most Respectfully,

FarmvilIe's Welcome TO Lucena.

We take the following from a Rich
mond exchange.
Lucens, the twice blue-ribbon horse
Of w. Bailey Saunders, was sold to
Col. G. NJ. Walker. of Farmville.
Mr.. Saunders said that Lucena
was the best horse bred in Virginia,
having for a sire Wicklif and dam
Happy Princess. The pedigree Of
Lucena goes back to the well-known
Wilkes stock. He was sorry to part
with his horse, but he knew it was go
ing into good hands. Col. Walker, it
is understood, bought Lucena to match
with another Lexington horse which
is close kin to the new purchase.
