Publishing in Richmond. --The Baptist Church, chiefly through its home missionary department and very much under the impulse of the energy and pious zeal of Rev. Mr. Dickinson, is doing much in the way of publishing. We have before us two tracts, "I am a Soldier," and "Volunteers Wanted," gotten up in this way for the army. The Church has some fifty colporteurs in the field distributing their tracts and books. The most remarkable part of this enterprise, however, is the publication of the Testament. It was found suddenly that there were no Testaments to be had. There never has been an edition of either Testament or Bible published south of Mason and Dixon, a fact showing how complete has been our reliance upon the North in every branch of art. The Church determined at once that an effort must be made to supply such a want as the Testament. An edition was put in press, and is now in rapid progress. It is gratifying to see this evidence of a determination to supply wants
