RELIGION AND LEGISLATORS.

not every one that saith Lord, Lord, that
shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven; and 80
seems to think Rev. Mr.. Barrett, Swe
denborgian, who addressed the Swedenbor
gian publishing and printing society, in New
York, last week; fer among the multitude Of
anniversaries, this denomination had theirs.
The Rev. gentleman made remarkable
speech, in which he deplored the great vari
ETY. of Christian sects-said that the lack of
faith in divinity, is to be attributed to their
multiformity, and not the divine commenta
ries, but the commentaries of the divines
upon the Bible. He found ready consolation
for the small numbers of his own commun
ion, in the scriptursl quotation: "Wee unto
you, if all men think well of you" However
he said, that 81 500 spent in stereotype plates,
last year, had, he believed, been rewarded in
converts: quite business way of settling the
account. He took no blame to his church
for being one Of the great number of sects
whose existence he deprecated. All this is
very natural; but it is surprising, if not
alarming, to read what he says about the
Religionists and the Legislators. He declared
that true Religion was not always to be found
among the church-goers of the present age
and he added, to the startling nature of his
assertion, by coupling with the church goeri
the Immaculate law-givers; for he says true
religion is not even to be found in the halli
oflegislation! This is exceedingly irreveren
in the Reverend Swedenborgian; his educa
tion must have been, indeed, very loose, OF
he could not have committed the very high
national offence of expressing doubt in the
piety and devoutness of the alligators. 1t
must be confessed that it is sometimes diff
cult to distinguish by their actions, members
of the church from other people; but it is
strange that any body should question the
devotional character of Legislators and Con-
gressmen! We had though. their dependence
ON PrOvidence-their meek submission to
the honors and emoluments of their stations
were too plain and unmistskable to be cues
toned. They prove themselves, in their
daily lives, capable of martyrdom, by being
patient victims to the public service. Be.
ieying that the voice of the people is the
voice Of God-in their pious zeal do thew
not labor night and day to obtain its appro.
basion-aye, and do they not almost die Of
broken hearts when not approved by that
earthly echo of the divine articulation! How
the Swedenborgian could have the heart to
make his wholesale imputation upon the pie
ty and religion of Legislators. we cannot un
derstand 1t is too bad. He should be CON
denim, to listen to the debates OF Congress
for at least one day! He might be let off at.
ter that touch of purgatory.

VIRGINIA COMMERCE..

VIRGINIA COMMERCE.
The Dispatch. inthe course of its leading ar
ticle Saturday, remarked that the Commerce
Of Virginia now, was Coastwise Commerce.
and thstthe produce sent from her ports was
conveyed to the North. contributing more to
the wealth and growth of Northern cities
than to our own. This course OF trade must
continue until the amount Of produce accu-
mulating in Virginia is sufficiently large to
furnish ready freights to Foreign ports
Where freights do not so accumulate, the
shipping will not come, and produce must 20
In search of the shipping. So the bulk of
our produce now goes to New York to take
shipping abroad.
Suppose, thee, that by both Canal and
Railways our tide.water ports were connect
ed with the Ohio. Every one can see that
those ports would become at once the points
of accumulation of such a variety and
amount OF produce, as to give employment
for ships in the foreign trade. OF course,
then, the ships would come to those ports,
and we should see our cities growing with
rapidity. We should have an immense d.
rect foreign trade, and we should have great
cities with their hundreds of thousands OF
inhabitants instead of the small ones we have
with only their tens of thousands.
The most powerful agent in producing this
much desired result would be the water line
to the Ohio. Public opinion, however
seems to be bent on the Railroad first and
FIRST or last, of course, the Railroad must be-
The Railroad will prove the necessity of the
canal, and the canal would want the aid oil
the railroad to control the travel and trans
port the light freights.
The motives which should induce Virgins
to labor for the accomplishment of this OBJ
ject are ofthe most important character
They involve not only the increase OF he1
own wealth; but her political welfare She
is foremost of the Southern States and as
such should be strong in physical as well as
moral power; for the moral power that mas
physical strength to back it is none the worse
OF in these times. If the Union should De
dissolved, as We trust 1t may never be, it be-
comes all the more important that she should
be united with the West through the ties and
sympathies of an active and intimate com
merce-that she should possess direct and
independent foreign trade-that she should
be vigorous and prosperous and able to bear
the brunt of her position on the map OF the
Atlantic States
We consider these questions of the most
solemn import to Virginia and however
much the people may be absorbed in parti-
zanry, they should not be forgotten.

M'arthur Democrat. (McArthur, Vinton County, Ohio) 1853-1865, 1855-06-29
For The Demncmt

Ma, EDIroR:-We wonder what motive a
Democrat can have in subscribing for a ne W
paper, which it is said the Wings, after drum :
ming about town and throughout the country
for about four weeks, are intending to com
mence publishing, in short time?
The stock for that press has been subscr ibed
with, perhaps, two exceptions, by Old Line
Wings, men who never had Democratic i'm
pulse in all their lives. They tell you it is to
be neutral paper, do they2' That it will not
meddle with politics. May be so but why
do they tell you this? Simply, because they
know if they should establish it as Wing
sheet it couldn't stand six months; and for the
same reason they do not call it q Know Moth
ing or American (?) sheet. with the additional
reason that no one man or the men in Near
thur, or the county Of Vinton, dare to take
such "load Of poles" on his back as to pub
licly advocate or defend the Know Nothings
No, sir! that part Of the game must be played
in tne dark, covered up from the scrutinizing
gaze Of the public. Then why do they pub
fish paper professedly neutral in politics?
As we have before said, 10 Democrat thinks
neutral paper Of such vast importance to
Vinton county as to subscribe money to buy
press for that purpose. Mark it, Democrats:
they are doing this thing for the express pur-
pose Of breaking up the Democratic paper
and if possible, to break down and dsorgan.
ize the Democratic party, in Vinton. Will
,ou, Democrats, furnish your enemies with a
weapon with which to cut your own threatsl
They X. Ms. and Whigs-approach you
with the wiles Of the serpent. Embrace them
and it is your destruction. Beware then,
Democrats, how you handle the spatOn ol
these hypocrites. One thing more; a couple
OF renegade Democrats, one A. G. Hard, and
VIM. L, Edmiston, both Of whom have sold
themselves to the Know Nothings during the
past year, the latter for the paltTy considera
ton of the office Of Clerk OF the Court, and
the former for much less. consideration, are
actively engaged in starting this new press
Let them meet the fate they SO richly merit
the contempt Of all honest men, Of every par
ty, and especially of Democrats.
