32. OF A LETTER FROM A GENTLEMAN IN NORTH-CAROLINA TO HIS FRIEND IN VIRGINIA, DATED IREDELL-COUNTY, AUGUST 11, 1801.

"The revival of religion in Cumberland has extended over a vast tract of country, and is still increasing. How pleading to the Christian to hear of the thousands of souls which are added to the Redeemer's Kingdom in that country.

"Mr. Hall, who went missionary to the Natchez, has returned, and gives a pleasing account of the prospects of religion in that lately savage country: a /60/ number of churches are formed there by him: about forty were added to the church at one communion, and there is every prospect that the Gospel will flourish there in a few years. O, may all the nations of the earth know and serve the Lord."
