The Daily NeCs, Dickens newspaper, is severe on
the clergy of England. One Rev. Mr.. Arden, called
on in a recent trial when Earl Ferrers was defendant,
testified as follows =
81 did duty at Stowe and Stanton Harold. Lord
Ferrers has only a room or two OF Stanton Harold. l
suppose he disguised himself only in a bit of fun. 1
hare been disguised myself many a time. Ihare taken
my shirt off and pat at outside my coat, and a hand
kerchief orer my hat. 1 beiere l have sailed out in
this disguise at night. | do not think | wore it the
whole night. My disguises acere different"
Still Rev. Mr.. Arden ~testiies that he "was not
careless of his duty" In abiding TO this case, the
News says that there is nothing to prevent this person
from entering the pulpit, and remarks
There is no dirt, however filthy compounded,
and however thickly ~plastered on the CLOTH, that a
few months, or years, arenot deemed sufficient to dry,
and when dry to brush off; so that the foulest delin-
quent is in due season cleansed the mire-polluted
coat is again all raven glossiness.''

ANOTHER OPEN QUEsTIoN.-Where's Sam Brown !

ANOTHER OPEN QUEsrIoN--W here's Sam Brown!
We clip the following from the Boston Post.
Samuel Brown, late convict of our prison, ought to
have the credit of doing the neatest thing, in the pc
destrian line, of the century. He contrived to slip
out of his work shop in the prison into a lobby, ap-
prOpriate a pair of %overallS, a coat and cap, become
a veritable teamster, and walk into the street. "How
come you in here ~ said an officer, as the teamster
coolly put his hand to 60 out (as any satisfied visitor
would do) on the iron door leading from the prison.
a. Came in at the big gate with the team, and they
don't want me any more" was the ready reply. And
so he passed officer after officer, through the guard
room, and the outside gate, not forgetting, as the
last one politely and promptly gavehim pass through
to freedom, to say Good bye" Once in the street,
he dropped his dignity, and found active use for his
legs. He ran in the direction of the Fitchburg de-
pot. In ten minutes after he left he was missed, but
from that time to the present he has eluded a most
vigilant and veteran police! Where's Sam Brown -!

" Pray for Rulers"

Our attention was called to the Importance of
ing for rulers by an editorial article in the last N
Evangelist, under the above caption. In our little
perience we have found that most men are more
ling to pray for good rulers than to UOte for them.
is much easier to carry out their own selfish inter
rant and then ask God to convert him and make
an honest and good man. than to sacrifice party pl
lections, and use the means He has placed in
hands to secure the election Of just men, and then
heavens blessing to rest upon them. 1t is like pray
for good harvest after sowing tares-asking God
give them new hearts, and at the same time givi
their whole time and influence to the service of Sat
like praying for God to convert the world, after e
acting laws to deprive men of the gospel and putti
out the Lamp Of Life. mans vote is Il better crit
rion by which to judge of his real character a
test his sincerity than million of faithless prayers.
Any base hypocrite may pray for good rulers, but
takes an honest man to vote from principle, and not
men and party One living deed-one soul-inspir
act, does more to recommend an individual to the
vor of heaven than a universe full of formal, soue
God-cursed prayers, which men belle by their incC
sistent actions, 1t is insulting the Almighty to ;
Him to give you rulers after His own heart while y
vote for duclists, men-stealers, women-whppers a
sou-buyers. If He should attempt to do it, you ma
it morally impossible by your votes.
How long will men be guilty of such Pharisai
hypocrisy as this' Do they expect to deceive tn
Maker and that He will hear their prayers while IL
are aborng continually to defeat the object prayed
Let no one, then, pray for good rulers so long as
has not principle and moral courage enough to uote
such men.

. Whie Allies

The wings, in every part of the country are reoic-
ing greatly over the wonderful victory they have a
chieved in New Hampshire, as though they had gain
ed the ascendancy in the State. They even deign
to call the Liberty party their ''aes" bu: despise
the name-we scon to be called the allies of either
party, SO long as both are allied to the slave power
We have as little confidence in the anti slavery feel
ing of the wings in that State, as in the most rabd
radicals. It is not because of the old parties has
gotten any advantage the other that we rejoice at
the result of the last election but because freedom has
triumphed over slavery 1t is in fact nothing more
less than glorious anti slavery victory. The wings
as party, have gained nothing by this conquest SC
far as obtaining entire control in the State concern
ed Their relative vote has not been smaller for many

There is one fact studiousy concealed from the peo-
ple while, placing their seal of condemnation on the
Liberty party that should be known No free State
has been ardent in her support of southern democ-
racy and southern principles and measures, as has
been Hew Hampshire. The annexation of Texas, a
scheme which had its origin in the South and was the
legitimate offspring of slavery, received the warm sup
port of New Hampshire, with the exception of one of
her representatives, John P. Hale. No sooner than
it was known that Mr. Hale was opposed to the annex
alton of Texas with slavery incorporated into her con-
stituon, than an effort made to bring him to vote
with the party upon this question But like an honest
and eares statesman he gave his vote against annex
alton And what was the result?

whether the plaintiffs acknowledged habtual violation
of Law, in selling intoxicating Liquors without cense,
did not deprive hin of all legal remedy for whatever Ii
bel might be uttered of him in respect to his illegal bu

and presented exceedingly forcble as we'll as elo-

the subject matter of the alleged libel refuses to bear
the burdens which the law imposes Why should he
enjoy its benefits He SCOTS at its requirement of
bedence. Why should he be sheltered under its pro-
tectng wing? He breaks loose from all restraint up
on bis conduct in this regard-hurls ruin and death
round the land-defes the penalty for his crimes
Why should the law, which he thus despses and con-

instructed the Jury that if they found that the plaintiff
was engaged in selling liquors in violation of the stat

solely in regard to his agency in that business, Their
he could not maintain the action, even if the article
complained of in itself libeous and the defendants
had failed to prove true The verdict of the Jury
was in accordance with these Instructions This is
an important decision, and MIR. Staunton deserves
