Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1849-12-29

PRAcTIcAL UNIoN.-A sermon was lately
preached in the first church, in Rochester,
by the pastor, on the subject of Christian
Union. Its persuasive powers were SO great
that a prominent member of the church,
who is also the Mayor of the city, felt in
stantly constrained to reduce its delightful
principles to practice. He accordingly invi-
ted TO his own house, all and singular the
clergy of the city, with other friends, for the
purpose of etfecting for once, a practical ex-
emplification of the ~scriptural assurance,
" Behold how good and how pleasant it is
for brethren to dwell together in unity"
The invited guests, most of whom were
present, make a respectable list in length
twelve Presbyterian clergyna~,con Con
gregational, five Baptist, eight Methodist
seven Episcopalian, eight Roman Catholic,
(of whom, however, but one was present.,
one Freewill Baptist, one Lutheran, one
Wesleyan, one Universalist, one Jew, one
Evangelical Lutheran, one Free Catholic
Three of these were colored men. The ed
itor Of the Geneesee Evangelist describes the
scene as one of great cordi atty and good
feeling, and the result very happy. 1t would
be difficult TO say whether McIllvane's SER
mon or the Mayors Slippers would best
promote this desirable state of amity and
union. The combination of the two could
hardly fail of success.
