INDIA.

Timour was Justly denominated the
frebrand OF the universe; the greatest
wholesale butcher that humanity ever
heard of. He plundered and nassac red
without distinction Of religion or sex, and
his track was marked with blood, desola-
ton, famine and pestilence. Arungzbe
was little better towards the Hlndoos.-
Tippoo Saib circumcised all the Brah,nins
he could get holdof, & it is said 10000
christians were subjected by him to the
same operation. Afier Abdella. captured
Delhi, 1861, he ordered great massa-
ere which lasted seven days his guards
were not even then glutted with slaughter,
but the stencil OF dead bodies drove them
out of the city. A great part of the
buildings were reduced to ashes, and
thousands who escaped the sword, suffered
"A lingering death by famine sitting upon
the ruins of their smoking tenements. -
Thus city, extending thirty-iour miles
IN length, and containing two millions of
inhabitants, became Il heap ofru,ns. The
historians Of the day have handed down to
posterity the most appalling descriptios of
human suffering, Of women and men
whipped through the streets with torturcs,
citizens fleeing from their dearest friends
as from beasts of prey, for fear of being
devoured amidst general starvation; wo-
men feeding OF their own children, ind
infants sucking at the breasts Of their do
ceased mothers. Fire and sword seemed
to contend for preeminence in the work OF
havoc and deslruc,ion; the work OF war
and blood was perpetual human heads
piled in pyramids, and the streets OF icities
and towns rendered impossible by heaps
OF slain. The country in many places
exhibited few signs of being inhabited,
save in the bones ofmurdered bodies, and
the moulderng ruins villages and tenn
pies. All law and religion trodden under
foot, bonds Of private friend ,hip as well
as of society broken, and every individual
as if amidst forest Of wild oeasts, could
upon nothing but the strength of their
own arn, or the deep villainy of his ma
ture.-HistOry Of The British Colonies.

POOR CHILDREN OFLONDON

The streets of London are fu9 OF poor,
and ragged, and untaught children, whose
parents, themselves poor, and ragged, and
as indsposed as they arc unable to provide
for their children, send them out to pill
fer, and to gather what they can from the
wretched g!eanings OF the streets ola city.
You see them every where. Like cer-
tain classes Of birds that follow the plow
for the worms that are turned up in the
new made furrow, or that wander over
the fields in pursuit Of insects, so these
creatures live on the crumbs Of the street. J..
They are ignorant, they are depraved,
they are thievish; there is nothing too
filthy or too wicked for them. They a
bound more especially in certain districts
Of tho metropolis, where the poor are
congregated. They are class ofhu,.'an
beings, as low and as bad as can be, and
for which, as yet, there,is no redemption.
Their misery, in the great mass, is unap-
preached and untouched by the schemes
of benevolen nee. Nothing can exceed
their degradation. There may be other
conditions of heathenism in pagan lands,
as low, because like exposures bring hu-
man nature to the same place; but moth
ing can be lower. The poor and the de-
PRAYED of a great city are the basest Of
human kind. A view ofthem as they are,
would doubtless be as frightlul as it wonld
be disgusting. TO think that our proper
ty, our comforts, aud our lives, are placed
in the midst Of such mass OF wickedness,
which nothing can restrain but physical
force, or the fear Of it, might well disturb
our tranquility for a moment, and induce
us to ask-ls there no help-no remedy
for such state of things? Is not the
community responsible?

sP Our correspondent =" Aeethias,"
will observe by the following article from
tho Christian Watchman OF Friday last,
that the error into which "Delta" had
been led into, has been corrected by a
correspondent Of that paper. 1t should
be remarked, however, that the article
alluded to by" Aleethias," originally ap-
peared in the Christian Secretary and
not the Christian Watchman, as would be
inferred from his remarks-the former
printed in Hartford, the latter in Boston.
i EDITOR.
To the Editor Of tie Christian Waichman.
MY DEAR SIR,- Allow me to correct a
remark which you have copied into your
paper of this morning, from the Christian
Secretary, relative to the Unitarianism of
the Stone Chapel, IN this city. This ar
ticle says, "the first minister in Massachus
sets who openly avowed Untarianisn,,
was DIR. Freeman, the Episcopal Rector
at the Stone Chapel-a proof that the
Liturgy and thirty-nine Articles are not
an ehec,ual safeguard oftruth, or bar
rier against error" IL IS not true that DR..
Freeman was ersr an Episcopal Rector /;
nor is it correct to speak Of the Stone
Chapel as an Episcopal Church becom-
ing Unitarian. Such case, (of an T.
piscopal Church becoming unitarian } has
never yet in one single instance occurred
Whether or not this is owing to tho Lit
urgy and thirty-nine Articles being " an
effectual safeguard oftruth and barrier
against error" leave your readers Is
judge. My only object at present is, to
state facts, and correct the impre ssion
conveyed by the article to which have
alluded.
It is true that the Stone Chapel, or
Kings Chapel, as it was then called, was
originally connected with the Church OF
Eng land but in the troubles ofthe Rev
olution, its members mostly left the coun-
try, and the Chapel was closed from Nov.
iI776, to the autumn of l777. and was
then opened, not Jor Episcopal serrices, but
for the congregation Of the Old South,
who occupied it till Feb. 1888. Then
but few of the original proprietors remain
ing, and these few, caring but little about
the Church, they declared the pcws OF
the majority to be forfeited, on account OF
their absence, and sold them to persons,
who, according to protest published at
the time, never were of the Episcopal
Church, and who hold sentiments diamel-
ricaly opposite to said Church" Un-
der these circumstances, Mr. Freeman
was chosen pastor, and applied for Epis-
copal ordination but h is sentiments M
being consistent with that " ehectual sale
guard oftruth and barrier against error, "
=" the Liturgy and thirty-nine Articles" "
his application was not successful, and he
received his sole authority to preach, from
his own congregation, no clergyman be-
| ing present on the occasion.
| These are well known historical facts,
which cannot be disputed ; and hence il
| is a misnomer to call the Stone Chapel an
] Episcopal Church, in any sense Of the
term OF to speak Of DR.. Freeman as ha,
ing ever been an Episcopal clergyman.
Yours, my dear Sir, with much re
spect, .. W..

The Globe says Of the North Ameri-
can:
The paper is got up, we have no doubt,
in the guise Of II Jackson paper, to enable
the enemy to make schism in the ranks
of the democratic party, by working thro'
n print sailing under false colors. 1t is
of piece with their attempt to divide and
destroy the democracy under the name oi
Wings.
The North American says Of the Globe
Neither are we wolves in sleeps cloth
ing sailing under false colors, to condemn
and destroy the principles and interests
we profess to support. And the base in
sinuutlon, without proof of the fact, is the
strongest evidence that those who make
it are themselves capable Of committing
the deed, if the temptation was only
strong enough or the danger not too
great.

Lying is a scandalous sin, a crime OF

it is the sleeps clothing upon the VOLTS
