society will do when it turns out, re-
mains to be seen-we have no specu-
speculations to offer, and would'nt
offer any if we had. An application
for admission addressed to the best

meet attention. This much however

Their churches number 81. Proba-

re- There is one of our christian
denominations more liberal-prover-
bially SO, than others. We mean no

not be the charge to us, when proper

ton before it is permitted to enter the

We are fond of Great Moral Ex-
hibitions '-passiouately; but are In
clincd to doubt, if many Of the Great
Scriptural pictures, that travel through
the country, are calculated to give
any very exalted opinion Of the "Acts
of the Apostles" and the admiration
so lavishly bestowed ION paper) upon
them, "as exquisite works of art"
comes very near the market value of
other humbuggery. Every thing now
a-days, comes sailing along under the
''Great Moral Exhibition banner, and
carries the day. A few common stereo-
typed newspaper pufls-and compli-
mentary tickets-liberally bestowed,
lead the wonder loving multitude into
the trap. This however is an evil of
the times the result of morbid
sense of morality, and other causes
which cannot now be pursued.
To come to the matter in hand
We can see no excuse, to justify Civ

within the very handwriting OF grace,
where penitent sinners kneel to ask
forgiveness for transgressions, in order
to go with free conscience and trans
gress again.
