To persons who are acquainted with the character
and objrets of the Chistiab Worlu, as they have.
been developed during the last six years, it is only ne
cessary to aay, that, as soon as one / o itanif paying
subscribers arc secured, the poper will he put topriss
regularly. The Old Subscription "List ought to
supply this number at once.
To other peraons, it is proper to remark, that the
Christian World, in prim, is intended to reflect the
Christian World, iV) action?-in a word, to daguerreo
ype it: and then, for purposes of common ail vantage,
to compare the organized and operative Religion of
the Age wiih the Religion of the Bible.
The enlarged liternry and business agencies of the
Establishment, are deemed amply sufficient to assure
the public of successful management. Its immediate
connexion with the Chihtian Athknkum?an Insti

cipal organs of the Church and Slate, both in Eu
rope and America,?will give ita conductors early ac

this responsibility will be regarded as equivalent to
