THE CLERGY OF IRELAND.

The last Christian Witness, the Episcopalian
organ in this this city, says that the people of Ire
land ground to the dust by their priesthood y
Not So Mr. Christian Witness it is the prosecuting
Protestant government of England and the bloated
lazy, fox-hunting hierarchy OF the English Church
whom the poor Irish have to support as well as
their own clergy, that has ground Ireland TO the
dust.
Hear what the Boston Courier says of the class
alluded to-
Fast and Prayer IL England for the Suffering
Poor-We learn by the papers, that the British
government has ordered aday of fasting and prayer
on account of the distress of Scotland and Ireland
This cheap remedy has probably been suggested by
the noble seffdenying Lords, and the humble and
pous Bishops. Now, may it not be reccremfy
asked, whether such an act might not have been
advantageously preceded by some small curtail-
ment of Injuries the part of these opulent
bcrs of the government? The Strengthening few
thousand of their fat horses and hounds, would have
done much towards saving from starvation the poor
Irish and Scots. That the food is not very bad, !
know by experience as others may learn by living
in Paris II one horse consumes as much as nine
men, of the products of the earth there would be
so much added annually TO the food the poor, in
addition TO the flesh proceeding from the first
rifce: and the dogs food in proportion. But then,
what would the sporting Lords and Bishops do with
their time?
If il be true that England is the best cultivated CO.
untry in the world, and that China supports popu-
Tation five times great, IN proportion to its ex-
tent as England does with less crimes and no star
vation we must conclude that China is better gov
erned, morally and physically, than England. But
their Bishops are probably not so rich and fat
and their Lords, we know, do not keep horses and
hounds to hunt with
The fasting and praying, coming asst does from
rulers, seem to imply that they arc exempt from all
blame in this matter; they would have 1t under
stood that the suferngs of their poor subjects is
visitation of Providence But why, in the name Of
Justice. human or divine, should that visitation
come upon the poor and ignorant alone and
leave unscathed the opulent and powerlul' DO they
mean to say that Providence is partial, and visits
the poor alone with its vengeance! Why not ALL
indiscriminately, as with earthquake, and the
plague Perhaps the favor which Madame de Mil
braie expected Tor nobility in Heaven, is expected
by the noble Lords and pions Bishops on earth
That lady said once in relation TO noble Lord IN
France noted for his wickedness, "that God would
think twice before he damned man OF his rank.

"COmeOutiSm and COmeOuterS."

We designed referring long ere this to an
article which appeared in the Oberlin Quar-
terly for Nov, bearing the above caption,
and enanating from James A.. Thome, but
other matters more important has prevented
its notice until now. The fact that a " Pro-
fessor of Rhetoric and Bellies Lettres in Ober-
lin Collegiate Institute" should deem it worth
while to devote a long and labored article to
the demolition of Comeoutism, is certainly
cheering evidence of the progress of its prin-
ciples. 1t is not our intention to attempt an
answer, but merely notice a few points which
seem to claim especial attention. The arti-
Gle, for aught VIC know, may be very logical
in construction, but to our mind it appears 10
be a sad lntermiNture Of truth and error, of
sound reasoning and ingenious sophistry.
The author in the commencement states nine
propositions which refer mainly, if not entire
ly TO the relation which truth and light sus-
tain toward each other. In order that he may
not be inexperienced, and to let the entire
world understand what he means by Come
outism, and what kind of Comeoutism he
wishes TO destroy at this particular time, he
enumerates the different varieties, and then
dashes OF a sketch of what he calls a~nli-sla-
very Comeoutism- giving its character under
seven heads. He declares,
LIST. The religion Of the Comeouters, which
is one of their own fabrication, is based upon
two commandments which enjoin supreme
love for the slave, and supreme hatred for the
STAKEHOLDER.
We are loath 10 believe he made this as
sertion knowing it to be false, yet are certain
he had not the least vestige of proof TO sus-
tain it, for Comeouters have uniformly shown
they were actuated by the kindest motives
toward the STAKEHOLDER, a desire to emancipate
him as well as his bondmen-to benefit the
oppressor as well as the oppressed. The evil
dent tendency of such an unfounded and reck-
less assertion, is to embitter the STAKEHOLDER
against the anti-slavery Comeouters, and en-
kindle, if they have not before been lighted,
the lurid fires Of hellish hatred in his bosom.
Thus does James A. Thome bear false wit
ness against his n~eighbor.

tied dregs of society. Tho ministers have
preached and prayed at the volunteers, and
the Boston Post has commended their pious
zeal. The godly Olive Branch has implored
and cursed the Chronotype and the a%nti-sla-
very papers that have discouraged enlistment.
The Bible Society has given the soldiers BIZ
bIes. The Tract Society distributed tracts.
Some Of the ladies', with immense pomp and
circumstance, presented the Colonel a gold
ring. Citizens have presented the officers
with the most costly swords. Others have
with immense solemniiy, presented sergeants
with six barrelled revolvors, and corporals
with Bowie knives. A mammoth Dali with
five dollar tickets, was given in Faneuil Hall,
in aid Of the volunteers. Private subscrip-
tons have flowed in by thousands for the
same object. The Theatre, too, has lent its
aid. A monstrous benefit was given under
the direction Of a large committee, last Fri
day night. The age or height of volunteers,
is now no more a consideration than their
character is or has been. Such are but a por.
lion of the means the state and church have
used, TO baptIzo and sanctily volunteering in
this daring crusade against justice, liberty,
and humanity, and yet the regiment lacks
hundreds Ct being full-so a~tleast l am told.
SO is God defeating the c]ounsels of the wick
ed. But ! will tell you more about it next
time.
Yours, dear friends, as ever.

I'd Baptist Church.
FRIENDS EDIToRs:


FRIENDS EDIToRs
An ~allusion is made at most OF the anti
slavery meetings to the cause of the diyisio,
of the Baptist Church in this place in 1910
1t is generally supposed that the division wal
on the slavery question, which is undoubted
ly a great mistake.
The undersigned was then a member and
attended all the meetings of discipline, and
can affirm that abolitionism was never aoi.
lated save at one meeting, and then a promi.
nent member offered a resolution worded thus
" Resolved, that abolition be put out of the
Church." This was lost by a good MAORI
ty. The same brother who offered this used
all his ability after the division to prejudice
his retained brethren and the public against
the seParatists, by urging the slavery ques-
ton as the great primary cause, and thereby
exciting a sympathy in the breasts of the pro-
slavery churches in his favor.
The leaders of the separatists subsequently
used the same means to create an interest in
their favor. The fact is, these were merely
expedients. The difficulty began and ended
in a conflict for the pre-eminence between a
few of the separatisis and the person who Of
fered the above resolution.
Any person acquainted with the members
at that time can easily perceive that some of
the best anti-slavery sentiment remained in
fhp cid nhprcb ,ylilo ~ ,Io c,,,o it,. o.,,
of the most confirmed pro-slavery members
seeded and were attached to the new church.
My word for it, Mr.. Bugle, there is much
better anti-slavery feeling in the old church
than in the new. The good book says
"There is more hope of a fool than a hypo-
critic" The old members are honest in re-
ference to this subject, and are making a slow
but healthy progress; but the new seized an
opportunity TO aggrandize themselves by a
deceptive use of the nam of anti-slavery.-
They, 10 be sure, engrafted an anti-slavery
article into their creed, but soon after r%eceiv-
cd into the church persons notable for their
pro-slavery. What did they care for the slave
when their real purpose was to Increase their
numbers and pcwer-top pull down their breth-
rem on the opposite side of the way! /
heard a worthy official on Saturday night
proclaim himself wonderfully well pleased
with free discussion this same good brother
some time since offered a resolution in the
church for my exclusion if did not promise
TO cease the advocacy Of the articles of the
fraternity.
Indeed, this Church was conceived in sin
md born in iniqnity. 1t is an illegitima,e
'hild, and no act of legislation can be OBJ
aimed to legalize it.

FRIENDS JONES :

Having observed in the Bugle one or two
notices Of commentator of the American
House kept by Isaac Webb of this place ;
and as Anti-Slavery men generally prefer pa
tronizing temperance houses, | deem it nv
duty to them and to the public, TO state the
following occurrence that illustrates the treat
ment those may expect at the hands of Isaac
WeJb, who may happen to differ with him In
opinion.
While ]. w. Walker was holding mee-
tings in Salem, | was sitting in Webb's bar
room' hearing a discussion against the aboli.
tionlsts by an ex-slaveholder and Others
Webb turned TO me and asked if | was not
one OF them, and if SO, | was an inGdel. 7

an inhdel supposed | was one. lie there
upon told me that he did not want any ona
holding such sentiments about his house.
Should Webb carry out toward others tho

give any clear idea Of the invention with

American Institute in October, it forced a

being acted Oh by fall of eight feet only.

Making Candles.-Many farmers are
accustomed to make up their supply of
candles for the year abou, this time; and
the common mode is to make them by
dipping. The New York Farmer and
Mechanic gives the following rules for
doing this, which are declared 10 be a
great improvement upon the common
method. 1t is common, with unsklled
persons, in making candles, 10 heat the
,allow boiling hot, and to dip the wicks
into il very rapidly; and the consequence
is, that the tallow runs down the candle,
leaving the top Of il very small, and the
bottom with an immense butt, which is
further formed into bell shape by the
dripping from it. The rule given is tina,
the tallow should no, be SO no, bu, tina,
the finger may be dipped into i, without
Inconvenience; and the dipping should
be done in very deliberate manner, par
,icularly tho lifting out, which should nc
cupy nearly a minute each time. Th,
tallow will thus be taken on readily, ant
will cool a, once. wi,hou, any runnn,
down, and the candle will be Of even size
and without the useless butt, which is I,
be cut away, before il is used.

We see thu, measures arc on foot for {
Wool Depo, a, Buffalo, to be under the
charge OF +. G. Peters, Esq, of Darien,
N. York. We earnestly hope it will be
carried out. and that as soon as practica'
bic Ike establishment may find its place
here.
There is no proprieiy in the way il
which wool is sold at present. II i,
bought up in the fleece, either on the
farm or in the market town; all the did.
ferent sorts or grades Of wool which com
pose lsece-being from forr to seven
passing through the same hands.
Now no factory pre,ends to work up
all these different articles Of wool. Each
establishment works particular sort, iiso
particular kinds Of goods to which its ma
chinery is adapted--diilereut grades Of
wool requiring dlieren, kinds of machin-
cry. Consequently. when the agent Of
factory purchases lot Of wool for the
use of his company, he naturally wishes
10 obtain such as his company manuflr.
lures, and none other. Blu, if it is sold
in the fleece, he must buy, 10 obtain wha,
he wishes, five or six soils which he does
not want. Now when a man buys. an
article he does not use himself, he sells
again, and advances the money upon il.
he must have profit on the article: and
il j, passes through half dozen hands,
each one claims his profit. The farmer
can readily see that the flr,Iler his wool
has 10 travel, the less he can get for il in
the first instance; because all these profits
must come out of him. His Interest i,
10 have his articles pass through as few
hands as possible before il reaches those
which work il up.
Now supposing we have a Wool Depot
under competent management. The far
mer carries his wool there, anal it is al
once staplcd; each sor, being put Up By
itself; and the farmer is credited so much
for so many pounds Of the first quality
so much for SO many pounds of the sec.
ond quality--lnd thus on through all the
grades into which i, is divided. Wool oil
lhe some grade is all mixed togeiher;--
aud when manufacturing Company wish
a quantity of particular kind Of wool,
their agent proceeds to the depot and Oh.
tains ii, without being obliged to buy any
other sort with it. II the farmer wishes
Tor an advance when he deposits hi.
stock, he can have ii by paying interest
and he. pays ,riAing per ceniaye. such
as cen! a pound or SO, for storage and
stapling.
Such an establishment we understand
TO be in successful operation a, Kinder
hook, N. Y, and to give the hghes, sat.
isfac,ion. We look to see them eslah.
lished at every considerable poin, where
wool seeks a market. so soon as the ben
ehls Of the measure arc understood.
