DR THOLUCK AND INI VERSA LIS.M
To the Editors of the Southern Tribune
A Pamphlet is circulating in this coni
muuity, containing the recent controversy
between Dr. L. Pierce am! the Rev. C.
F. R. SiiF.HANB. The latter gentleman, in
commenting on the tbiiiy-sixth verse of
the eleventh chapter of Romans : “For of
Him, and through Him and to Him, area//
things,” 6cc., remarks : “This is one of
the passages upon which Tholuck, the
great German ’1 heologian relies, fur his
faith in Universulism.” (See pamphlet,
pages 29 and 30.)
The purport of this statement of Mr,
Shehane, is, to strengthen his argument
in favor of Umversalism, by quoting the
opinion of Dr. Tholuck. In other words
Mr. S. wishes to make it appear that Dr.
T. is a Universalis/. Ido not know upon
what authority this assertion is made. 1
cannot think that Mr. S. designed to misre
present Dr. TANARUS„ and 1 am therefore inclin
ed to believe, that he has heen misled by
others. It is riot the first lime, tiiut Dr. T
has heen accused of holding views in con
sonance with the Univeisalists. Some
few years since, he was so confident'}-
claimed by the advocates of that theory,
that some of his friends in this country,
wrote to him on the subject. 1 need hard
ly say, that his response was perfectly sa
tisfactory. I have not his letter now,
which was published in the Lutheran Ob
server, at Baltimore, but I recollect dis
tinctly his position as stated by himself.
It was in substance as follows : “That al
though there were a few passages in the
New Testament that seem to favor Univer
6alism, and which might lead some to hpc
that that system might he true, yet he re
garded the general teachings and tenor of
the Scriptures as adverse to that system.”
With a view however, to place this matter
beyond all doubt, I will embrace this op
portunity to show what is Dr. Thoi.uck’s
true doctrinal position. This I propose to
do, by a few quotations from his own wri
tings. To accomplish my design more
effectually, I will take up several of the
leading doctrines of Universalism, and see
how they are sustained by Dr. T.
1. As to the reality and personality of
the Devil. —Universalists deny the exis
tence of the Devil, as that doctrine is
generally received amongst Evangelical
Christians. Dr. T. in commenting on
John viii. 44 : “Ye are of your father the
Devil, and the works of your father ye
will do,” See., remarks : “He to whom
you bear a spiritual kindredness is the
source of all evil ; into his disposition you
willingly enter—For the tet7 to do what
he desires is sufficient to constitute a son
of the Devil.’' * * * “An allusion to
the first temptation of man by the Apostate
is natural, since that act of the Devil, was
the great and chief one, of which all others
are merely the consequences.” * * *
“Christ in a general way, calls lying the
crime of the Devil ; but Satan’s propensi
ty for lying appeared directly in the fall of
man. In immediate reference to man’s
fall, the Devil is called that old serpent.”
* * “Your fleshly, arrogant disposition
prevents you from understanding and re
ceiving my doctrine—nay, you even per
secute me on account of it. This proves
your relationship with the fallen spirit ;
your heart takes pleasure in entering into
his desires. He was from the beginning
appointed to destruction, and has always
shown himself to be the enemy of holy
truth. For Sat3n never generates aught
save lies and sin.”
So much for this point. It will be seen
that Dr. T. believes in the existence of
the Devil and attributes to his agency the
fall of our first parents, and by consequence
all the moral evils which exist in the
world.
2. Universalists teach that the judgment
threatened againit wicked men, is executed
alone in this world —And quote in favor
of their views, John ix. 39 : “For judg
ment am I come into this world,” Sec. ;
and John xii. 31 : “ Now is the judgment
of this world,” Sec.
I will quote Df. T’s exegesis of these
passages, to show how widely different are
his views from those of Universalists. In
commenting on the fiist passage he re
marks "This is an expression of the Re
deemer pregnant with meaning. The
whole history of the Gospel selves as a
commentary upon it, Here, as in all
ether eases, the external act of Christ
shadows forth his spiritual agency ; as his
divine eye universally sees the inward in
the outward. He causes the blind man to
see, first bodily, then spiritually. This, he
adds is his great calling ; “to give sight to
the blind” in all places ; but on the other
hand, to make blind those who think they
sec without him : and indeed, so far as
they are awake to self-knowledge in their
own eyes, so far as they persevere in their
blindness, to increase and strengthen that
blindness. Christ calls that the end ofliis
mission, which was per accident, necessa
iily connected with it, as in Matthew x.
3 J : “’1 liink not 1 am come to send peace
on the earth; I came not to send peace,
but a sword ;” and Matthew xi. 25 : “1
thank thee oh Father! Lord of heaven and
earth, because thou hast hid these things
from the wise and prudent,” &c. The
Redeemer calls this a divine tribunal; but
as with all other divine tribunals, it is at
the same time a self judgment. He who
will not come to the light damns himself
to darkness, and God gives him over to it.”
From this it will lie seen, that in the opin
ion of Dr. T. the judgment spoken of in
this passage, means nothing more than the
judicial blindness, to which all will he giv.
en over, who wilfully reject the Saviour;
or as Dr. T. expresses it in another place :
“God gives them over to the judgment of
hardness of heart.” Every divine judg
ment is likewise a self judgment, in such
wise however, that on the other hand eve
ry self judgment is at the same time a
judgment from God. When the increas
ing hardness of man and his faithlessness
to the truths he has received, diminishes
bis susceptibility to religi' us impressions,
and prevents him more and more from ap
prehending the Deity, this is a judgment
of Goil —or if you prefer the expression,
“ a judgment of his moral government
\ person thus hardened can no longer be
lieve, fir this very reason, that at an earlier
period, when he could have dune so he
would not.”—Rum. viii. 7.
In regard to the other passage, "Now
is the judgment,” &c. he remarks, “What
is the (krisis) judgment exercised over the
world ? The ordinary fotce of the word
is entirely adapted to the whole context
here. When God judges wickedness ob
jectively, his judgment is that of rrj ction ;
lint the power of that which God objective
ly rejects must also perish objectively in
the world. For if the power of the king
dom of evil is broken down by Christ’s
redemption, then is the power of Satan
also, who is the ruler over this kingdom,
broken down with it,” &c.
3. Universalists deny a future state of
punishment. — I)r. Tholuck, commenting
on John hi. 15, says: “He who remains
in the Redeemer, becomes
a prey to destruction —he who believes in
him, has eternal life. The Scriptures men
tion two kingdoms; the one of life and 'tight
Ihe other that of darkness and death.—
The first, is where the life is from God ;
the second, is where men continue in a
selfish life. These kingdoms exist in the
present order of things, but they extend
also into futurity. The first kingdom forms
a spiritual union with the invisible realm
of unfallen spirits ; the other with that of
the fallen ones. It is always necessary to
remember, the complex character of these
ideas, when John mentions the opposition
between life, and death,” &c. But I need
not to multiply quotations.
It will thus appear, that in regard to
three of the leading doctrines of Universal
ism, the views of Dr. Tholuck and Mr.
Shehane are totally at variance.
In making this correction, I wish not to
be understood as expressing any opinion
in relation to the merits of the late contro
versy between Dr. Pikkce and Mr. Sm:-
hane, and I regret that a sense of duty to
an absent brother, lias constrained me to
say this much. Dr. Tholuck is a Minis
ter of the Evangelical Lutheran Church,
and Professor of Christian Theology at
the University of Halle, in Prussia. Asa
Biblical scholar he has no supeiior—his
Commentaries are eagerly sought by
Christian Ministers of all denominations,
and there are few men whose opinions
have more weight amongst Theologians
both in Europe and America.
Asa member and Minister of the same
Church with l)i 1., I could not consent
to see him misrepresented, how uninten
tionally soever it may have been done,
without endeavoring to exhibit his true
views upon the questions at issue. Ami I
sincerely hope, that whatever authority
may heteal'tcr be sought, to strengthen the
peculiar tenets of L niversalists, Dr. Tho
luck s name will never again be quoted
as one who advocates that system,

Wesleyan Female College.
Asa Visiting Committee, at the late
Annual Examination of the Wesleyan
Female College, we beg leave to present
the following
REPORT:
We take pleasure in expressing our
high gratification, at the very handsome
manner in which the different classes ac
quitted themselves, in the various and
thorough examinations to which they
were subjected. We think we can safely
assert that the classes generally would
favorably compare, without regard to sex,
with those of any College in the land.
Their thorough instruction in Geometry,
Trigonometry and Astronomy, was de
monstrated before a large audience be
yond a shadow of doubt. We were
especially gratified with the graceful
ease and adroitness, with which problems
were solved, und explained upon the black
board.
We further remarked that the young la
dies expresesd themselvvs, very
in their own language, with great accuracy
and promptness, in answer to questions in
variably propounded with all possible
fairness, and in such forms as to elicit
a thorough exposition of the principles
involved in the subjects. Nothing could
be more manifest than that the young
ladies were thrown upon t.ieir own re
sources; and that all collusion between
professor and pupil \\ as out if the question.
The inference we draw is, that there is on
the part of the Faculty not only sound
scholarshipin theirrespect've departments,
hut likewise great tact in communicating
instruc ion. They do not (as is too fre
quency the case) drill the memory at the
expense of the judgment. We take it
that their method is out and out analytical,
l’bo favorable impression we hitherto en
tertained of the high, claims of this institu
tion upon the public generally,and upon the
Church particularly, under whose foster
ing care it has been founded and sustained,
lias been greatly heightened by the ordeal
of examination, which we have witnessed •
and we can, in all good conscience, and
with unshaken confidence, commend this
nursery of science to all who desire to
lurnish their daughters with a sound,
thorough education . and that too, where
attention to their morals is scrupulously
given.
W ith regard to the musical department,
we are of the opinion that this institution
is second to none in the Union. Profes
sor Guttenberger, and his acc< mplished
daughter are, not only amateurs in this
interesting branch of the fine arts, but they
also attest by their performances the ut
most artistic skill, bes ; des the happy facul
ty of imparting to their pupils a thorough
knowledge of the science. These facts
were beautifully and happily demonstrated
by frequent interludes of rich and varied
made, both vocal and instrumental during
the examination exercises. \Ve hesitate
not to say that in this department most
thorough instruction has been imparted.
The concert on Tuesday night, amid so
much beauty and enchanting music, beg
gars our humble powers of description. It
vv as one of those scenes which could be
felt, but not described.
In conclusion your Committee feel assur
ed that they are not alone in their high
commendations of the performances on
Commencement Day. Thefrequentplau
dits of a crowded audience, made up of
the elite of the city and surrounding coun
•ry, together with many strangers from a
distance, are corrohrating and satisfactory
testimonials of the high order of intellect
and classical taste evinced by tho eloquent
themes, so beautiully read by the graduat
ing class. Their subjects were happily
chosen, their style easy, and their language
chaste and rhetorical. It is true they are
now no longer of the College, but written
epistles of her usefulness. Having now
her highest honors they will reflect the
lustre they have acquired upon the respec
tive cities of society to which they may at
tach, and will also, be the best possible
recommendations of their Alma Mater.
All of which is most respectfully sub
mitted.

The death of Zachary Taylor, P resi.
dent of the United States, haviving been
announced by Telegraph, the citizens of
Macon and vicinity are respectfully invi.
ted to meet at the Court House, at 5 o’clock,
this evening, for the purpose of taking
j suitable action in regard to the melanchc.ly
dispensation of Providence, which has de
prived the nation of its Chief Magistrate,
and the country of a citizen who has shed
undying lustre upon its arms.
GEO. M. LOGAN, Mayor.
Mayor's Ollice, July 11, ISSO.
In obedience to the above call, the citi
::ens of Macon and vicinity, assembled at
tue Couit House at so’clock, when oil
motion of Washington Poe, Esq., His
Honor, the Mayor, was called to the Chain
and Dr. E. L. Strohecker appointed Sec*
ret ary.
On motion of the Hon. Eugenius A.
Nisbet, the Chair appointed a committee
consisting of E. A. Nisbet, Washington
Poe, A. P. Powers, C. B. Cole, I.L. Har
ris, andß. K. Hines, to repoit Resolutions
suitable to the occasion.
1 be Committee, after consuHtion, re
ported through their Chairman to follow
ing preamble and resolutions, viz :
But a few moths ago «e were called up
oil to mourn the death of a Statesman,
whom we had long delighted to honor—
one of the loftiest in station, in talent, and
in character, of whom the Republic could
boast. Again does the samesad summons
call us together, again lias the destroyer
been among us, and bis hand lias fallen
upon a victim whose exalted position could
only he equalled by the talents which a
durned it. The President of the United
States, is no moi e. The Chief Magistrate
of a pure and mighty people, has been
suddenly called fiom the pinacla of earth’s
fame and honor. His place is filled by
am tlier, but his memory will live in the
hearts of his countrymen. Well has he
deserved his renown. In courage a hero,
in character a patriot, incorruptible in hon
esty, unswerving, in truth, devoted to his
country, his life was a living example of
the pure and lofy. That people for whom
he had risked every danger—and gained
every triumph, will never forget him.
He lias succeeded to the heritage of im
mortality, and while his spirit has depart
ed from amongst us, his name will live
torever on the tablet of America’s best be
loved sons.
His deah happening at this juncture
gomes to the hearts of all with a tone of
solemn warning. It bids us forget the
struggle for selfish and sectional advance
ment, and meeting around the grave of
the departed hero, to bury the animosities
which may soon be quenched in the daik
ness of the tomb.
Be it therefore Resolved, That we deep
ly deplore the death of the late President
of the United States Zachary Taylor,
a soldier, to v\ hnm his country owes a debt
of deep gratitude, and whose memory
her Sons will never cease to chei i>h.
He ohed, i hat in the loss of General
Taylor the Republic has lost a son whose
every action was devoted to her service,
and whose eve y thought was for her wel
‘ate —one who hud mingled his name with
hers in the glory of many a hard fought
bailie field, and many an action of undy
ing honor. His name and fame are identi
fied with theirs, and they will go down to
posterity together in the halo which sur
rounds the fields or Pa'o Alto, Montery
and Buena Vista.
Resol,red, J hat the death of such a man,
at such a time, is not without its purpose
and its lesson. 11 teaches us the fast chang
ing aspect of life ; the want of stability
in things which engage us here, and urges
upon us moderation in Council; and con
ciliation an action —that it is wisest and
best to cease the bitter strife—the selfish
struggles which are carried on upon the
threshold of the grave.
Resolved, That we sincerely tender out
deep sympathy to the family of General
Taylor. Their loss we feel is irreparable,
yet may it be a consolation to know, that
with their tears, are mingled those of a
sorrowing nation.
Resolved, That a Committee of Thir
teen be appointed by the Chairman of the
Meeting, to make arrangements for the
delivery of an Eulogium, upon our illus
trious fellow citizen, at such time as may
he best adapted for that purpose. And
that they be, and are hereby requested, to
invite the people of the adjoining counties
to attend and patticipate in the exercises
of that occasion.
Resolved, That the Secretary of this
meeting be requested to forward a copy of
its proceedings to the family ofGeneral
Taylor, and to each of the papers of the
city for publication.
Judge Nisbet prefaced the report with
some appropriate and touching remarks,
after which the preamble and resolutions
were unanimously adopted.
The Chair then appointed the following
gentlemen as the Committee of Arrange
ments, viz : Washington Poe, R. K. II ines,
J. H. It. Washington, A.P. P iwers, J. J.
Gresham, Geo. \V. Fish. W.K. De Graf
fenreid, Thaddeus G. Holt, Simri Rose,

Piiuik Roads.
Their Construction. — In the most gene
rally approved system,two parallel rows of
small sticks of timber (called differently
sleepers, stringers/ir sills) are imbedded
in the read, 3 or 4 feet apart. Plank
eight feet long and three inches thick, are
laid upon those sticks across them, at right
angles to their direction. A side track of
earth, to turn out upon is carefully grad
ed. Deep ditches are dug on eacli side,
to insure perfect drainage; and thus is
formed a plank road.
Laying them out. —ln layingout a plank
road, it is iudispensible, in order to secure
all the benefits which can he derived from
it, to avoid or cut down all steep ascents.
Avery short rise or even considerable
steepness may, however, be allowed to re
main, to save expense ; since a horse can,
fur a short time, put forth extra exertion
to overcome such an increased resistrnce ;
and the danger of slipping is avoided by
descending upon the earthern track.
A double plank track will rarely be tic
cessury.
No one without experience in the mat
ter can credit the amount of travel which
which one such track can accommodate.
Over a single track near Syracuse, 161.000
passed in two years, avaraging 220 teams
per day, and during three day 720 passed
daily. The earthen turn-out track must,
however, he kept in good order ; and ihis
is easy, if it slope off properly to the ditch,
for it is not cut with any contiuu us length
wise ruts, hut is only passed over by the
wheels of the wagons which turn off from
the track and return to it. They thus
move in curves, which would very rarely
exactly hit each other, and this travel,
being over the earth, tends to keep it
in shape rather than to disturb it.
Covering. — Tne planks having been
properly laid, as has been directed, sheuld
be covered over an inch in thickness with
very fine gravel or pebbles, from which
all the stones or pebbles are to be raked,
so as to leave nothing upon the surface of
the road that could be faced into and in
jure the fibres of the planks. The grit of
the sand soon pene rstes into the grain of
the wood and combines with the fibres and
the dropping upon the road taform a hard
and toughcovering like felt, which greatly
portects wood from the wheels and horses’
shoes. Sawdust and tan bark have also
been used.
The road is now ready for use.
Laying. —The planks should be laid di
rectly across the road, at right angles, or
•‘square,” to its line. The ends of the
planks are not laid evenly to a line,hut pro
ject three ot four inches on each side al
ternately, so as to prevent a rut from be
ing formed by the side of the plank
track, and make it easier for loaded wag
nns to get upon it, as the wheels, instead
of scraping along tlie ends of the planks
when coming towards the track obliquely
after turning on, will, on coming square a
gatnst the edge of one of those projecting
planks, rise directly upon it. On the
Canada roads every three planks project
three inches on eacli side of the road al
ternately.
Durabiln'y. A plank road requires a
renewal, either because it has worn out at
top by the travel upon it, or because i;
has been destroyed at the bottom by rot.
But, if the road have traved enough to
make it profitable to its builders, it w ill
wear out first, and if it does, it will have
earned abundantly enough to replace it
twice over, we shall see presently. The
liability to deeay is therefore a secondary
consideration on roads of importance.
Decay —As to natural decay, no hem
pek road has been in use long enough to
determine how long plank can he
preserved from rot. Seven years is per
haps a fair average. Different species of
hemlock vary greatly, and upland timber
is always more durable than from law and
wet localities. The pine roads in Canada
generally last about eight years, varying
fron seven to twelve. The original Toron
to road was used chiefly by teams hauling
steamboat wood, and at the end of six
years began to break through in places, and
riot being repaired, was principally gone
at the end of ten years. Having been
poorly built, badly drained,not sanded and
no care bestowed upon it indicates the
minimum of durability. Oak plank cross
walks are in Detroit, the plank being laid
flat as on those of pine. It is believed that
oak plank well laid, would last at least
twelve or fifteen years. One set of sleep
ers will outlast two plankings. Several
Canada roads have been telaid upon tho
old sleepers thus much lessoning the cost
of renewal
Correspondence of the Charleston Courier.
Washington, July 13.
This is the day fixed for the funeral ob
sequties of the late President TAYLOR
Ten days ago, he was perplexed with
present cares and anticipating a tempo
-1 ary relief from them upon the adjourn
rnent of Congress. Ten days ago, he author,
ized a message to Congress on important
subjects, and accepted an invitation to an
agricultural fair ; now toiling bells and
minute guns announce the preparations
t r his funeral. The city will b e very f u ||
of people. Many arrived here yesterday
from the North and the cars are'bringing
them in rapidly successive trains. The°bo°
dv was, yesterday, laid out in stale in the
east room, and was visited by a lame c n
course of people. The features were as
natural as in life. The slight contraction
of die brow, which was usual with him
was still marked. Gen. Taylor was born
in 1784, and was therefore two years
younger than Mr. Calhoun and Mr
Webster, aud eight years younger than
Mr. Clay now is. Gen. Washington
between whose pursuits and habits of |jf e ’
and those of Gen. Taylor, there is much
similarity, died at sixty-eight, two years
older than Gen. Taylor. Gen Harrison,
who had led also a military and agricultu
ral life, varied by civil employments,died
in his sixty eighth. General Taylor bad
hardly passed the period of the grand cli
macteric, in all countries, and especially
in this. Few safely pass it; but Gen. Tai
lor was of so good a constitution, and had
lived so temperately, that he might have
gone on, but for the confinement and care
of his new du ies.
Gen. Taylor wrote a message to Con
gress, which was finished and c< pied by
some hand, in the early part of last week,
upon several important topics. Had it
been communicated, it would have caused
a profound sensation. It urged his views
as to the adjustment of the territorial ques
tion— and the immediate admission of Cal
ifornia. It importuned Congress to pro
vide the necessary supplies for the govern
ment. It declared his detrminutinniosup.
port the present state of ihings in New
Mexico, against the pretensions of Texas.
The message, as 1 have learned, lies in
the State Department. That the new ad
ministration will carry out such a policy
in every particular, is not he supposed.—
Mr Fillmore cannot take so bold a tone.
He will be obliged to conciliate and even
temporize. He will rely en the pas-agel
of tiie Senate adjustment bill, if pass itl
ever sh.-uld, to settle the New Mexican!
dispute. j
The Remains of Gen. Taylor Thcl
Washington correspondent of the PliiiaJ
delphia Bulletin says : I
“The body of die President will rel

when it w ill he conveyed to Baton Rnuciß
Louisiana. If no vote is obtained upoil
the Compromise bill until that period, isl
will be postponed until the after the Cnml
mittee’s return—some time in AugiwH
Mrs. Taylor and family will vacate iLA
W hite House almost immediately. TANARUS; jB
