ide and socialist journal, the Tribune, expresses
delight at the division and quarrel in the Aletho-
dist Episcopal Church. Nothing better can be ex-
pected from q newspaper which has steadily de-
voted its utmost energies in aid Of the nide rhilo
sophers Of the day-which has exalted the merits
of such dangerous writers as Harriet Martneau
Frederick Bremen, Brisbane, Emerson, Andrew
Jackson Davis, and all the host of French and Ger
man socialists and infdel philosopher which has
aided in the mpostures Of the Fox girls on the
ligious feelings Of the communicated which, in
its direct political opinions, is devoted to the de
structon of the constitution of the Union. In fact,
this same Tribune is the grand infdel and anti
Christian press of this country. II is the nest in
which the foul birds Of nfdelity permitted to lay
their eggs-arc Matched and nourished into hardy
growth. No systematic wickedness, embraced in
modern philosophy, is too dangerous for its advo-
cacy and assistance-no opinions against the dyi-
nifty Of the Saviour are too outrageous for its
temptation and Recommendation; and in religion,
morals, and literature of the day, we find it the
grand patron Of every monstrosity and imaginative
dream
From such source, therefore, we must expect to
witness expressions of Joy at the quarrel in the Me-
thodist Episcopal Church. These infdel writers
anticipate from such disturbances in church organi
cations, similar results which they hope for in ex-
citing in society the employed against the employ
er-utimate destruction, and new organizations in
harmony with the dreamy theories of Fourier. They
are bent oyertuming all that is old and on re.
producing all the materials in a ne shape in the
"good time coming" 1t was only few days ago
that we saw the CADET community eulogized--a
community Of infdes and socialists established ut
Nauvoo, Illinois, which was organized without any
reference to Supreme Being, and which devotes
the Sabbath to amuscments, a. the aboltionists of
New England, which fraternire with the Tribune,
now devote the sacred day only to political meet
ngs. Here is the evidence Of the real opinions Of
that Journal and Of its tendencies on the young
minds Of the rising generation. For our own part,
we sincerely regret that the Methodist Episcopal
Church should have any quarrel to crafty these
abandoned inhdcls and hsters of Christianity, aud
We think that steps ought 10 be taken TO restore
this great religious body 10 Its original influence,
by healing the differences which now exist.
Mn. WEBsTrR's VISIT 10 ViEsINfA.--We per-
ceive, by the newspapers at the South, that Mr.
Webster has been invited by both political parties
in Virginia to visit that state; and there Is pros
pect that be will soon address the people Of Rich
mond. This movement Of Mr.. Webster towards
the South will be great eyent-as great a that
which has recently taken place in this State where
the speeches Of the great Statesman have produced
a profound impression, aud have brought about a
healthy reaction in favor Of patriotic public senti
ment.
If Mr.. Webster should really decide on accepting
the invitation to visit Virginia very admirable re-
suits for the country would be realized by extern
sion Of his Southern tour. Should he not stop at
Charleston he might at least pass to Georgia,
where bis great abilities would be generally re-
spectcd and appreciated. Georgia in its last State
election, contributed more political influence in "a
yor Of the Union than any other Southern state
and her citizens would gain new incentives TO pro-
serve the common glory Of the country BY listening
TO the frank and manly cloqucnoe of the Secretary
Of State. Georgia, next 90 Louisiana, il the most
thriving and enterpri-nz Of the Southern States:
and wasting time in idle spocula,ions, puts forth
her capital and energies uron factories, railroads
and commerce, which will yield abundant returns,
and at the time demonstrate that che receives
no unequal treatment from the federal government
In such a state, MIR. Wcbster's presence would be
hailed with great JOY; and the influence which he
would there exert would most cfectuny foil the
traitors t. the constitution, who leagued toge-
