Of love, and by it introduced into such a
tender feeling for mankind, that they
unanimously refused to fight, or 60 to war
on any occasion although for refusing,
grieyous suffering were the consequence
and even the loss of life itselfto some. II
we compare their conduct with that OF
christians ofthe present day, who, though
making the same profession of religion,
yet advocate war is there any alternative,
but to conclude, that those early followers
were In an error, or that they who advo-
cate war now, are in one; or that time
has changed the nature of the gospel2
Processing christians in the more cor
rupt ages since, having engaged in war
can by no means justify those ofthe pres.
ent day, because. if example is to be fol.
lowed, it ought to be the example cfthose
who lived nearest the commencement OIL
the christian era, and whose conduct in re-
fusing to fight, is certainly most consisten
with the doctrines Of the New Testament
1t is indeed lamentable, that men, and
even men of penetrating minds, shoulc
suffer themselves to be so influenced BY
prevailing custom and public opinion, a;
to conclude that war is allowable; with
Out investigating whether these are con
sonant with the principles ofchristianity.

Another argument advanced, is the ex-
preston Of our Savior to his disciples.
He that hath no sword, let him sell his
garment and buy one" That the dis
ciples understood this direction literally,
as they had done some Of his other say
ings, which were not meant so, is evident
by the reply they made; "here are two
swords ;" Of which it does not appear that
he took any further notice than TO say it
is enough. Were only two sufficient
for their defence But does not our Lord's
reproying Peter for cutting off the ear OF
Malchus by healing the wound, and or
dering the sword to be put into its sheath.
with the addition ofthis denunciation, "all
they that take the sword, shall perish with
the sword" render this passage decided
testimony against war, even in selEde-

The leaves from the trees
Are all dropping away,
Like the friends Of my youth,
They are gone TO decay:
Vain world that | dwell In
My spirit Is free,
From thy spells that once flung
Their entertainments DER me.
We dream away life
From the minds very birth,
And worship, as idols,
The nothings of earth,
Till Time rings the kneu
Or our Youths dying years,
And thought. like the sere leaf

Reflection comes late,
But Il larries full long.
When LIES banquet is stript
OF It's garland and song
Yet wisely doth God
In his mercy decree,
That our feelings should change
Like the leaves Of the tree.
As the worm, that will turn
TO q butterfly gay,
Spins its own snowy shroud
So we creatures of clay
May weave such a garment
Of light, for the tomb,
As will lay on the soul
'Gainst a season of bloom.
The leaves from the trees
Are all dropping away,
Like the friends Of my youth,
They are gone to decay:
But hope points 10 me,
As to nature, a spring,
When my spirit shall rise
Like bird on the wing.

EDITORIAL PRoMlsEs.-Thee editor OF
new periodical says in his Introductory
address" We shall avoid the discussion
of every excited and exciting toplc"-
we interfere at all with the excitements and
popular prejudices OF the day, it will be
BY way ofconciliation" Then, in the very
next sentence, he adds" Vice and i'm
morality will be rebuked with severity,
yet with candor, moderation and forbear-
ance."
How an editor can rebuke vice and
immortality with severity, and yet avoid
every exciting topic, we do not exactly
understand. He who rebukes vice and
immortality with severity, will not fail to
rebuke incompetence, RIGHTEOUSNESS, rob-
berry, and man-stealing But all these are
"exciting and excited topics.'' And the
editor says he will "avoid the discussion"
of them. We do not see how the editor
can redeem both his promises. Candor,
moderation and forbearance will do a
great deal, "by way of cancellation, and
are excellent things in their place. But
they cannot reconcile "severe rebukes"
otsin, with such forbearance as shall en-
tirel "avoid' discussion" ofthem. ID.

A REV. BARNABAs PH1NNEY," for
mer y minister at Pawtucket, r. l., and
more recently at Westborough, Mass, has
been found guilty Of licentious conduct,
and is deposed from the ministry-where-
upon all classes of lcentious men, scep-
tics, scotters, and enemies of moral refor-
nation, both in and out of the church, are
raising loud triumph, and inundating the
land with false representations. Some Of
the papers have it that Barnabas Phinney
of Massachusetts, is the same Individual
with Rev. Charles c. Finney, Professor
at Oberlin, Ohio! Others, equally accu-
rate in their information, represent the
delinquent as having been an active friend
of Rev. J. r. M DowaIl, the pioneer of
moral reform. The Boston Recorder
lends its sanction to this latter report
Now it happens that we resided in and
near Pawtucket the summer before last,
while the same "Barnabas Phinney"
was preaching there, and we never heard
him claimed by the friends of any species
of moral reform in that place, and never
saw or heard of his taking an active par,
IN any of the efforts then making in that
village, to break up the system of licen.
tionsness which condemns one sixth part
| OF the females Of America to the condition
oil bruteS No: he was not prepared to
say that such change should take place
immediate y-and the "prudent" ones in
Pawtucket, who were forever finding fault
with Elder Ray Potter and Req. c. SIM
mons for their ultra views, ultra ethics
ultra theology, and ultra measures, were
ever ready to designate the same Rec
BGrma6aS Phlnney" as a model of all
that was "Christian-like" and pruden,
IN such matters; one who never carried
things "too far" The ministers JUS
mentioned were too denunciatory. Blu
Mr.. Phinney never denounced. He aoa.
no uttr0lst," OF all the ministers of thai
region protesting any attachment to vita
goddess, and any concern for public NOR
ale. we know of no man whose influence
was accounted by ultra reformers to be
more injurious, whose policy was accoun.
! ted TO be more compromising, and more il
accordance with the standard Of the n. Y
Observer and Boston Recorder, than thi,
same Rev. Barnabas Phnn:ev" These
are the facts of the case, and the Boston
Recorder and the infdel papers may make
the most of them. Mr.. Phinney may
have attended some moral reform meeting
for aught we know, though we never
knew of it-as we believe he has atten
ded anti-sIavery meetings, with friendly
professions, at the same time laboring tc
produce compromise, and lower down the
standard. Iflhe Boston Recorder wishe:
to guard the churches against such men
and characterize them as "1MPosToRs,"
we shall not be careful 10 counteract its
warnings.-Friend of Man.
