out necessity.

following mournful picture of prison life. 1t is from

folly and crime, could, before yielding to temptation

JOHN RANDOLPH'S RELIGIOUS SENTI-
MENTS

" In the course of conversation he told me that in
early lie he had been influenced by the infdelity
which prevailed among many of the leading potl-
clans in Washington and his fanaticism continued,
with occasional doubtings up to 1916. In that year,
he said, during fit of sickness, he had
markable vision, which completely dispeed the de-
fusion under which he had previously surrendered
his faith, and since he had been firm believer
in the truths Of Christianity
questioned him as to the VISION" and asked
him If 1t was not some imaginary working of the
BRAIN He said No, it reality" and to prove
this, he showed letter which he had written
flom his sick chamber, addressed to bosom friend
IN Virginia. In which he gave circumstantia detail
of his conversion" In this letter he gave the
rery acords which uttered in his by his invs-
IDLE monitor.
4" This letter." continued he, "contains nothing
but the TRUTH strange 1t may appear to you, and 1t
would make me miserable to doubt it' H.: uttered
this last sentence with much fervor did not, by
either word or look give him to suppose that
doubted the narrative; for hold that little super
stition is vastly better than an mixing of nfide-
iy!
Hrs REpRooF OF AN ATHEIST" Shortly after his
recovery from Sickness in 1916, he was dining at the
house of distinguished politician with large and
mixed company. Amongst Them to use his own
words a hoary headed debauchee whose vices
had cou pietey shattered his const tuon, whose days
seemed to be numbered, and yet, sir, he had the au
dacy TO call IN question the existence of the Deity
presuming suppose, that there were many kindred
spirits there happened 10 sit directly opposite to
him, and felt SO disguised at his mpety could not
avoid saying, think, sir, you might better have
been silent on the subject, for, Judging from appear
you will have in short time, ocular proof of the
power of that God, whose eriStence you now boldly
question? You afford to watt sir, for the few
remaining days of your life, and in common courte
sy should not shock the feelings Of others by the ex
hbiton Of your blasphemicsn He turned pale with
anger, and even trembed, but made no rejoinder
and the company soon separated. We met than

lance whether his courage 'braved death, | cannot

From the Petersburg ia. Republ can.
TEXAS.

We pleased TO learn that at the dinner given in
kiag William to Mr.. Hunter, the important subject
OF the annexation of Texas occupied much of the
attention of the meeting.
friend has promised us sketch of Mr.. Hunter s
speech, which bore mainly the necessity of pre-
| venting Great Britain from acquiring any hold on
this important territory.
We deeply regretted that il out Of power to
| attend the King William dinner; and, also, that the
circumstances which hindered u.s. occurred at late
period, that unable TO respond in time TO
the kind letter of the committee. We shall endeavor
| TO publish the proceedings on Thursday.
| In the meantime we give the letter Of Mr.. Wise,
| addressed to the Committee of Invitation. We are
proud TO find this gallant and high-minded Virginian
with on this subject. 1t is on which Patriot
ism should call the whole country to unite to us
Of the South, it is which not only interest
but safety requires that should present an I'M
divided front.
A friend in Richmond who agreed with us entirely
in our views, said, but do not let this have any
thing TO do with the Presidential question" We
asked him if he was afraid of Mr. Van Buren, ?
he said no, but that the Wings would make capita
out of it." We told him, say now, on this
question we know party, but the party of our hie
sides and homes the party OF our friends, oul
associates our relations. Let it have anything tC
do with the Presidential election"-not we. All ac
ton bearing on our domestic institutions is above
beyond, the party contests OF the day. he TIES th'
duties, the affections they involve, place them in
position where every Southern man should learn t
consider, that other institution can compare witt
their importance, and that he is bound by every prn
cple of honor by every association OF feeling, to lie
them stand alone, pre-emnent above all other consid
erations, and commanding from him the most solicit
ous care, the most vigilant watchfulness, and tht
most determined support.
None need entertain fear that we will ever allow
this question to be mixed up with the principles in
volyed in the Presidential contest. He who is no
with us here, is against us every where. If We
thought that Mr. Van Buren,, any other Presi
dental candidate unsound on this vital point
we should forget all else, and he could re
ceve from US aUght save the most unrelenting op
position.
Our object at present is to bring the subject full,
to the view Of the people-to direct their attention
to it, when it is clearly before Them, to suggest such
action as may be deemed most requisite.
