But, we ask, land we are not about to triAe on

just-righteouS. But if Christians utter this
truth, we are told it will distract the church Then
there are men in the church who want to keep
back the truth from its work of justice and righ-
teousness. Then there are men in The church
who take par. with the Shareholder, from sheer av-
Iarce. we care not how such men may talk of
their piety towards God, and their zeal to enlarge
His church with His blessing, we shall hope to
distract from them all that is honest and lovely,

is such material in every religious community, and
we claim it for the slave We attack no mans
religion, no mans creed, no mans church office
but we claim that no mans office, or creed, or re-

Of course, for which we are not responsible Re-

Iambassadorship Of Jesus Christ to be the highest
office that is borne on earth, we must say if there
are yet clergymen in Massachusetts, who are in
telligently opposed to the cardinal doctrines and
measures of the an-slavery cause, they need to
be taught what be the first principles of the doc
trne of Christ. We know how to make allow

brambles of the hot and dusty way side !! We
tell them that though they may be able to turn
our indiscreet attacks upon them to the disadvan-
tage of our cause, they will not be able on flu
ture day, to account for the enhanced degradation
of the slave, or the enhanced infdezy of the free.

The LADY OF THE FIRST Governor OF YER.
MoNT.--Thomas Chttenden, the first Governor
of Vermont, who was plain farmer, alike remark
able for strong native powers of Rind and the re-
publican simplicity with which he conducted every
thing in his public duties and in his domestic es-
ablishment was once visited by party Of travel
ing fashionabes from one Of our cities. When
the hour of dinner arrived Mrs. Cbittenden, to the
of her fair guests, went out and blew
a tin horn for the Workmen, who soon arrived;
when to the still geater surprise, and even horror,
of these fair cts, the whole, OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES,
his lady, guests Workmen and all--were invited
to sit down together to the substantial meal
which had been provided for the occasion. After
dinner the ladies were left by themselves, and one
Of the guests thought she would take Mrs. Chit,
tenden to task for this monsrous violation of the
rules Of city gentility to which she had been, as
she thought, so uncoureously made victim.

HOrrid Sentiments,

The following is from a speech delivered in
Congress by Henry A. Wise, of Virginia, on the
resolution of Mr.. Prentiss to expel Alexander
Duncan, of Ohio from his seat-and in reference
to the death Of Cilley.
Mr.. Wise, let it be remembered, with his hands
dripping, as it were, with the blood of the murder
ed Ciley, was employed to advocate the claims of
the Colonization cause, lately, at Washington,
when he declared, that the best way to put down
abolition was with gunpowder and the sword, or
words to this effect,
And observe too, what similarity there is be-
tween his manner Of reasoning in relation to du-
cling and the talk of anti-abolitionsts about sla-
very, Mr.. Wise abhors duelng-O, yes. So
do our opponents abhor slavery, but-they abhor
abolition great deal more.
Let puritans shudder as they may-l here

There's many dark cloud hurryng by,
Yet thy bright radiance breaks between,
And steals from yonder troubled SKY,
To rest upon this peaceful scene.
Beautiful star! all calm and bright,
With mystic charm are thou endued
For who, beneath thy hallow'd light,
Could let one erring thought intrude'
Thy pure and gentle ray was given
Amid soft twilight's shadowy sky,
To draw the mourner's glance to Heaven,
And court the lovers pensiye sigh.
