" EASING CONSCIENCE,

When | sec female, professor ofrc-
llglon, one who claims TO take Christ for
all example, wearing from tc 25, or even
fifty dollars worth of jewelry, and at the
same time, doing but little for tn" cause
OF Christ, | am compelled to think that if
that sister would lay aside her jeweIrv,
such as silver and she'll combs, gold beads,
rings. &C., and devote the proceeds to the
support of the gospel at home or abroad,
She would ease her conscience.
When | see brother carrying an ex-
pensive watch, and in addition to this an
expensive appendage, in the form OF
chains, safeguards, keys and seals, which
cost from twenty 10 one hundred dollars,
| think if that brother would be content
with a watch worth from ten to eighteen
dollars, and give the dit1e. ence tor the
spread OF the gospel, he would ease his
conscience.
Again, when have seen christians,
whose profession requires that they be
not contormed to this world, spending sew
cral dollars annually, for dress, more than
their real wants demanded, have thong hi

quentlv when | have seated myself at
their tables, | have thought that if they
would be content with less costly food and
a much less variety, they would not only
promote their health, but they would case

When l have seen professors ofreli-
glon habitualIy making use Of tobacco,

rem and sisters would renUuncv this I'M
| pleasant and improbable habit, they
would not on y sata better example before
the world. but they would case their con-
science.
Lastly; when have seen small por-
ton of the christian church contributing
literally for the spread of christianity, l
have thought that if every christian would
do what he could, though it were not more
than the widows mite. they would mani,

innate the two congregations on Sunday

The number on Monday was not quite so
great as on Sunday, the deficiency being
caused by some managers certainly very
illegally and injudiciously, having per-
emptoriIy directed the people to goto work
on the Monday, and in consequence they
had to leave the town after the services on
Sunday, so that they might be at home to

TROUBLE IN THE WIGWAM 4!


Notwithstanding the stately gait and port
ly mein Of Van Burenism since its raptur-
Gus and fortunate alliance with antimason-
ry, its mongrel offspring does not seem
to thrive. Tnis is clearly verified in the
course lately pursued by that party, relative
to the would be-llon Mr. Kinsman's nom
inalion as Senator for Washington County.
This discrepancy must be rather humil-
iating to the .ge conductor of the Patriot /;
considering his almost iniallble deXterity
in political marshaling. Here comes
the catastrophe. MIR Marston, full of thrill
ling emotions inspired by a sense of his
greatness, and his usual efficiency, comes
out--mir0bHe dictu with the astounding
protestaton that he "will not vote for adj
herring mason to the end of time" He
apologies with the winning modesiy of a
true courtier, that lie was not aware that
MIR X. had any connection with the mason
ic fraternity, at the time of his nomination
and calls on the gentleman, Mr. X. whose
name occupies very conspicuous place in
his paper, rot far below the 'uncomprom-
ling motto to throw offthe mask ofsecre-
cy, and give through the medium of his
friendly paper, frank disclosure of his
masonry. But abating somewhat his usual
severity, he presumes Mr. X. to be one of
those mild freemasons who are not much
in favor of masonry;-bu rather, us he
tain would have it, little enamored with
antimasonry.
All, why does not Mr. Knsman relieve
his editorial friend from the bewildering
mazes of hypothesis and conjecture! Is it
not because he considers his political char
acter will appear better little rmbellshed
with the romance of Imagination? But a
political brother of Mr. X. who is accus-
toned to form his conceptions from the
stern realities of cultivntng the soil, and
from the simple dictates of honesty and
sobriaty said few days since that he saw
MIR X. about the time OF the Morgan out
rage, with all the pOmp of a Mogul
marching in Il masonic procession, com
pletely decorated and equipped with ma
sonic emblcns, according to the law and
custom of the exalted brotherhood.
Since that time. it is well known that he
has remained constant TO the barbarous and
terrific obligations, which he took while
wrilhing in the coils Of the cable-tow and
under tile gloomy observation of the hood
