Spirit Of the Morning Press.

oPNAt VI LILO 0VIulu6 1Ioss'
The editor of the Union this morning
answers himself in joking over the Jas
sumed) fruitless efforts of the opposition
to find an issue with the party in power;
holding that having recently essayed to
take ground against the Democratic pro-
pensity for land acquisition, they have
already backed out from that position
The same paper pats the London Times
on the back for its well-merited compli-
ments upon Gov. Marcy's now famous
general instructions to Americans repre-
senting abroad, of all grades. The Union
further grows eloquent over Secretary
Dobbin's efforts to initiate really eff
cient steam Navy for the United States
Government. Major B. B. French, too,
gets lick of the Unions barney brush,
for his labors in connection with the i'm
provements in progress at the Capitol, all
of which except the extension of the
two Houses of Congress" the editor tells
us, are under the immediate supervision
Of the clever Major.
The htelligeneer comes to the aid of
the Union in the matter of the General
Government right to construct the pro-
posed Pacific railroad; quoting to that
end from speech delivered in 1924 by
the Hon. John S. Barbour, then Demo-
cratic member of Congress from Virginia,
wherein Mr., B. stoutly advocates the
right in question.
The Republic again discusses the Pacific
Railroad project in an elaborate article, in
which the editor lays down his views as
to the best manner of constructing the
proposed work. So far as aid from the
General Government is concerned, the
Republic holds that it can afford to pay
for it a sum which will be the principal
of 100000 per annum Gnterest) for
transporting the mails to and from the
Western coasts of the United States; also
whatever may be the principal of the
probable cost of transporting men and
munitions of war for the proper defence
of California and Oregon, rating the prob
able cost aforesaid as interest.
The Clipper is again after the Roman
Catholics with sharp stick" The ed.
itor, taking occasion to express his dis.
sent from the propriety of the recent at
tack on Catholic procession proceeding
to Gainesville to dedicate new church,
intimates, very gently, that if the Catho-
lies will cut such antics as parading the
streets with banners flying, accompanied
by loud peals of music, on Sundays, they
must not think it very strange that they
are attacked once in while. The article
further reminds the public that while the
Catholics complain of such treatment
from Protestant rowdies, their rowdies
at times attack Protestant street preach
ers and the crowds around them. The
editor is, of course, against any such con-
duct practiced by any parties or church.
The Clipper further comments with some
severity on improper combinations and
concerted efforts to regulate the compen-
sation for labor.
The Suns editorial columns are barren
of interest this morning.

The ARABIA's IMPORTANT NEWS which
reached here at noon to day by telegraph, is
by no means implicitly confided in in diplo-
matte circles. 1t is not credited that Russia
will evacuate the Danubian Principali;ies
The Representatives Of one or two foreign
governments at this point received, by the last
previous arrival, news that tho British Min
lister at Constantinople had replied to the
Cars avowal that the position of the COM
bined fleet (of France and England) is equiv
alent to a threat under which he cannot re-
tire his troops; that their entrance into
the Bosphorus will be an infraction of their
treaty obligations, and saying that the feet
in question cannot DO withdrawn This En-
gish reply is regarded as certain to induce
the Czar to continue to hold the Principali-
ties; in which case the rumored declaration
from Louis Napoleon, that the continuance Of
the Russian troops in their present position is
regarded by the allies as war on Turkey, and is
to be treated US such, is exceedingly likely to
bring about speedy hostilities Thus, very
little faith is given to So much of the Pacifc's
news, as might otherwise lead to the impression
that the Russo Turkish question is about to
DO amicably adjusted.

Lewis.

BROTHER BoYNroN 81 learn that some Of
your brother editors refused credit TO the brief
account gave you Of n sale of woman and
child TO trader by member of the Metbod-
ist Episcopal Church. Ii is unpleasant for
mo TO write articles for papers. IL is not in
my line; and especially is it unpleasant to
speak OF wicked practices in church where
hnye been member for forty-fve out of
fiiiy-i years of my life. would far more
willingly, if the cause of truth and justice
would allow, take covering aud walking
backwards throw it over the sin, and hide il
at once from my eyes and the eyes Of the
world.
But the healthy portion Of the Christian
church should know what outrages nre per-
petrated within her pale, and with her sane
lion and il has therefore become my duty
to write the following statement, which you
lnny use as your judgement may suggest.
No disrespect is intended toward any of
the parties named. All except Brady nre
my acqunntances, and they have treated me
with the usual courtesics of society. MIR. ID.
lives up to the highest church standard
around him aud hls error is that he allows
the church to form his Christian standard,
instead of forming it HIMSELF from the Bible.
Mr.. d., prominent lawyer, and member
of the Nj. +. Church, resides in Kingwood,
Preston county, Virginia. lie purchased
slave woman aud infant child for 5000, to
whit OH most aniable aud excellent wife.
The difficulty of hiring good help WINS the
reason assigned for the purchase. Not long
after the purchase, suy one or two years, his
wife died; and some months after her death
Mr.. ID. sold the slave woman aud child TO n
slave trader named Brady, Il man well known
in Virginia, of great industry, aud an eXIen-
sive dealer in slaves. The price was $500.
The woman and child were taken away to
market, she leaving other children IN The neigh-
borhood.
The class leader of Mr.. d., most excel
lent mnn and devoted Christian, informed
me that this act of Mr.. ID. had been submit
ted to committee, according to the rules of
our church, and the committee had found
nothing in the transaction that violated our
discipline.
There the matter rests, and with all other
cases OF the Kind more or less aggravated
must rest so long as our discipline remains as
il is now.
repent that all the persons in any way
connected with the affair." including MIR. d.,
the the preacher, and committee, are men of
the first standing, and and would he the Inst
persons to do what they suppose essentially
wrong. But the law allows the slave trade
aud our members in the slave States find
nothing in our discipline against occasional
trading in such property by church members.
Il is proper for me to say the great major
of our church, especially in the free States,
believe such dealing to be sin and many
would so construe the rules OF our body.
Blu, in slave States, church members can find,

a free State; but they are, doubt, too little
disposed to labor without compulsion, as
well as too ignorant TO establish good Gov
ernment; aud the wild Arabs would soon
modest and destroy or ngniu enslave them,
While serving us, we take caie to provide
them with everything, aud they are treated
with humanity. The laborers in their own
country are, as | am well informed, worse
fed, lodged, aud clothed. The condition OF
most of them is, therefore, already inended
and requires no furtner improvement Here
their lives are in safety. They are not liza
bic to be impressed for soldiers, and forced
to cut one another's Christian throats, ns in
the wars Of their own countries. IL some
OF the religious-nlad bigots, who now tease
us with their silly petitions, have, IN fit OF
blind zeal, freed their slaves, it was not gen
erosity, il was not humanity, that moved
them to the action lit was from n conscious
burthen Of load of sins, and hope, from
the supposed merits of so good a work. to
be excused from dannution.
"Ilow grossly are they mistaken to suppose
slavery TO be disallowed by the Alcornn =
Are not the two precepts, to quote no more,
Masters, treat your sdres tcih kindness !;
StGUes, serue your masters ioiih eheerfutness and
Jfdeiity,' clear proofs to the contrary? Nor
can the plundering Of infidels lie in that
sacred book forbidden, since il is well
known from it, that God has given the
world, aud all that il contains, to his faith-
ful Mussulmen, who are TO enjOy II OF right,
us fnst as they conquer il. Let us, then,
hear no more of this detestables esproposition,
the inanuinission of Christian slaves, the
adoption of which would, by depreciniing
our lands, aud houses, and thereby depriv-
ing so many good citizens Of their proper
ties, creaie universal discomfort, and pro-
woke Instructions, to the endangering of
Government, aud producing general conlu-
sion. have, therefore, no doub. hut this
wise council will prefer the comfort aud hap
pness of whole nation Of true believers,
to the whin of n few Erikd, aud dismiss
their petition"
The result was, as Martin tells us, that
the Divan came TO This resolution: "The
doctrine, that plundering aud enslnving the
Christians is unjust, is, nt best, prObiemuticai;
but that it is the interest of this State TO
continue the practice, is clear; therefore,
let the petition be rejected"
And It was rejected accordingly.
And since like motives are apt to produce
in the minds of men like opinions aud reso-
lutions, may we not, MIR. Brown, venture to
predict, from this account, that the petitions
to the Parliament of England for abolish
ing the slave trade, TO say nothing of other
will have similar conclusion?

always, sufficient excuse for such trading
with impunity, without in any way affecting
their social or religious standing.
II should also be noticed that an increasing
number of clergy, laity, and conferences
among US are being undeceived about the
humbug of holding slaves for their good, aud
ure demanding our rule to be so altered as
to exclude shareholders altogether. When
the church shall adopt such rule, slavery
must cease, for with oil her defects the
church has still moral power that can put
down that "sum Of all villanies," American
slavery.
May that day soon come, is the prayer OF
your brother, SAm'L LEWIS.
