found names who have friends and re
lations in your church. A son Of youl
most gifted deceased minister is to be
found among them. Could their mo-
tives be jesuitical or hostile to your
denominations Your wound, Mr..
Knight, is based upon a most unjust
suspicion and most unkind and un-
,corthy imputation.
No motive under heaven was theirs,
but to remove prejudice and spread the
glorious temperance reform. If after
this disclaimer the wound still troubles
you, Mr. Knight, all we can say is,
that you must bear it with becoming
fortitude
All your talk about intolerance and
persecution, the faggot and the stake,
are "spirits drawn from the vastly
deep" You would have us believe
that the days of the Inquisition were at
hand; that second Torquemada with
his troop of fierce Inquisitors were soon
to override the land. 1t is really anu
sing to witness how far mans preju-
dices and feelings will blind his judg-
ment, and we have before us a most
notable instance.
The poetical portion of your commu-
nication Con which we will not comment,
it speaks for itsclf) dismisses Tom quite
summarily with the compliment (ironi.
cal of course) of learned" but Honest
Joe comes in for little of your Spleen
Is it in good taste Mr.. Knight to tug
in domestic allusions in public print?
If SO our tastes materially differ. AS to
ranting, raving and serving the devil
the question comes up, who is serving
the devil, "honest Joe" or Jesse c.?
Here is wide field for discussion which
we are not disposed to enter, leaving the
public to settle the question between US
The most surprising part of your pro
duction Mr. Knight is now before us,
that God would not permit the profana-
ton of his house on the memorable 4th
March, interposing rain to prevent the
appointed meeting. Is it possible that
the reasoning faculties of any man liv
ing can bring him to such a conclusion.
By parity of reasoning Mr.. Knight
you must conclude that every rainy
Sunday is to prevent the worship of
God. 1t follows irresistably, you cant
get round; we did think, that the ligh
of the 10Th century was fast dissipating
the mists of superstition. But we

md the vile, are banded together and
become arrogant and presumptuous, and
/ wise above that which is written. Ad-
hitting for arguments sake the truth
of all this, precisely the same may be
said of all organizations. We thoug ght
it an undisputed fact, that there were
"black sheep in every fock," and why
attempt to taunt our Order when the
same thing may be said of yours?
Need we remind you Of the old adage,
that "they who live in glass houses
should not throw stones
You are most uncharitable, Mr.
Knight, in your illusions to those of
us whose misfortune it has once been
to belong to the class of inebriates.
Probably ten per cent. of the Edge
combe Divisions were once dissipated,
but surely there is no dishonor in be-
longing to band of reformed drunk
ards, Gas we have been called.) If
there is, awe opine" there is dishonor
likewise in belonging to band of re-
formed sinners. They differ only in
degree and that very slight, for all re-
formed sinners are not reformed soak
ers. AS to the odious epithets which
have been 50 freely banded, the fault
is on both sides and the question is,
who began the war? We are willing
to abide the issue Of an investigation.
You complain, Mr.. Knight, that
wound has been inflicted upon your bo-
som by the recent Temperance move
ments. We take this occasion to say
once, and for all, that the appointments
for Mr.. White to lecture at the points
named, were not made in spirit of
hostility to your denomination. The
places were selected because they were
known as places for public gatherings,
and with no view to wound or irritate
the feelings of any one. 1t was our
wish and desire that every man, woman
and child in the county should hear Mr..
White, to remove the prejudice which
existed against him and his cause,
which prejudice was not confined to
any particular class or sect, but seemed
in some neighborhoods to be entertain
ed by every one. All they ask for is
hearing without interruption. The
cause comes home to mems bosoms and
tiresides and will take care of itself.
You are perhaps not aware that more

White for his services, was the contri.

tains a communication over the sigma
turc of H. g. Knight, which deserves
passing notice at my hands. Mr..
Knight opens his case with the remark
that the fact of p S. Whites having
appointments to lecture, at several
Primitive Baptist meeting houses, has
caused much excitement among peace
able citizens and savors much of the
spirit of jesuitism.
Here is quite grave charge at the
very Threshold, for if we understand
the meaning of the term "jesuitism,'
as respectable people as live in the
county Of Edgccombe are charged with
doing that which savors of cunning,
deceit and hypocrisy. Surely, Mr..
Knight, you did not mean to make
such charge as this, and did not
weigh we'll your language. We are
disposed to consider you too high-toned
AMI honorable a citizen to indulge in
such filings, at portion of your fellow
countymen. Jesuitism! why that is
word we have been taught to despise
from our cradle up, and we will not for
a moment believe it an appropriate cpl
thct for proud freeman of the Old
North State.
You state that your church are op
posed from principle, (not to tempe
rance or temperance reform,) but to the
enactment of penal laws restraining
freemen from pursuing any occupation,
&c. Here We shake hands, Mr.. Knight
The Order of the Sons of Temperance
are with you there, letter and language.
They are law lovers and order Lovers,
ond propose to do nothing 'oit1out first
con<~'tiny the hiyhcst tribunal known to
the had-fhe popular voice. Without
that sanction their hands are tied and
fall they must, aud with cheerfulness
and resignation will they meet their
fate. The Order know and appreciate
full we'll the blessings of this free gov
ernnent, and are not disposed to inter-
fere with the beautiful framework in
the slightest particular. Mr.. Knight
now goes into a eulogstic history of his
church, none of which are we disposed
to gainsay. With no taste for, or in
formation necessary to engage in reli-
gious polemics, we turn that matter
over to divines and the pulpit, their
more appr opriate sphere.

istrates, we were panied to see you in
concluding give such prominence to the
disgraceful scenes enacted at Ellis
Meeting House. We cannot beNeve
such was your purpose, but the effect
will be to encourage similar scenes.
In conclusion Mr. Knight, let me re.
cur to the fact, that some where in your

May l now ask you to join us in try.

softening down those prejudices, and |
have confidence enough III the good cit
liens of our "beloved Edgecombe, to
conclude, that when they are convinced,
that it is only prejudice by which
they are actuated in their opposition,
they will come in by tens Anl lo1"n> to
unite with US in pushing on the good

convinced of this fact, still persist ID
the same course of opposition, that It
then no longer prejudice, but assun5

Now lastly, Mr.. Knight allow me 70

THE SLACKWATER.

A correspondent Of the "Republ''
can" replies to writer in our paper
of tho week before last, as follows:
Mr.. Howard-T see n communion
ton in the Mirror Of last week, from
Rinaldini,' stating that "when | was
summing up the reasons why this
county should take $4,000 stock in
the Slackwatcr improvement, | had
overlooked an important item, viz -
that the capital of the Virginia aud
Pennsylvania Improvements would
be united, and the per cenrage would
he drawn from the revenue arising
from the whole work" admit that
this would very materially change tho
matter, and make it still much bet
ter investment for our county to make
than had supposed. But that being
the case, Rinaldini has overlooked all
item of no small importance, viz:-
The Improvement being extended
from Brownsville to Morgan,own,
would, undoubtedly, greatly increase
the revenue from the work below. 1t
would add to it at all events not less
than six per cent, Gift was extended
it would pay not less than 80 per ct.)
which would make the whole work, if
Rinaldini has made correct estimate
pay nearly 224 per cent. Is is posi-
BILE, that Monongalia, one of the lar

Western Virginia, will refuse to take
this stock, when it has been demon
strated 10 the entire satisfaction of
every citizen that has minu;ely exam
ined the subject, that the county at the
above rate, would get her money back
in less than ~ years; and afterwards

Farm Productions in Calif1raia.-
C. S. Weller, who lately arrived out
at San Francisco, wrote home to his
old paper, the Hamilton Telegraph,
concerning mattersin the Pacific State
in which he spoke thus ofagriculture:
Farming is the best and safest bu-
sincss in the country, and the agricnl-
,ural reputation ofthis State is dcs,in-
ed to assume high position in very
few years, and l believe, to finally
out-rank any other state of our Union.
Why, Sir, from three to four crops, tho
smallest of which would be called all
average crop in Ohio, can be raised
from one sowing. a farmer here may
nut his ground in order, sow it thick
with barley or wheat, and lift be tho
best soil here he will get from IS 10
100 bushels per acre. Next year it
springs up spontaneously, if left Gu
tircly untouched, and will yield from
so to rs bushels per aero, and the
third year, ifstill untouched, will yield
from 80 to 50 bushels per acre, and
even tho fourth year will, in the same
way, yield from 90 to 80. Now, your
farmers of old Butler, know, will
not like to believe this, but have it
from those III whom can coniidc, and
who have witnessed it.
