Newton, Alexander, D.D., a Presbyterian di- vine, was l)orn in North Carolina, Dec. 15, 1803. In 1808 his father removed to Bedford Co., Tenn. Under a careful training at home his studies were carried for- ward, both classical and theological ; and thus fully pre-
pared for the ministry, he was ordained in 1824 by Shiloh Presbytery. In 1829 he emigrated to Living- ston, Madison Co., Miss., where he taught school and preached until 1835, after which time he was employed in the work of the ministry, as stated supply to the fol- lowing churches successivelj' : viz., Osborne, Sjjring Ridge, Shongalo, Oxford, Middleton, Grenada, Clinton, and Brandon. He was a close attendant upon all the
judicatories of the Church, and took an active part in all the subjects brought before Presbytery, Synod, or General Assembly, in all of which he was acknowledged to be a leader. He died Nov. 27, 1859. Dr. Newton possessed genius, with a large amount of common-sense. His attainments were varied : an accurate scholar, an original thinker, and a terse writer. At one time he edited a periodical entitled The True Baptist. He wrote much for the various papers, religious and secular, and in The Eagle of the South he published a series of arti- cles on the Presbyterian Church (O. S.); these he after- wards issued in a pamphlet form. See Wilson, Presb. Hist. A Imanac, 1861, p. 192. (.1. L. S.)

Y., and in 1836 of the Church in Cambridge, N. Y. ; in 1843 he was electefl principal of Cambridge Washington Academy, and filled this position with great efficiency and suc-
