nal says:
AN article lately appeared in the
Monitcur upon tho naval strength and
resources Of the United States, and
showing that although our sctual force
on the war footing was small, we had
tho great elements of naval strength
in our vast commerce, in the charac.
ter Of our naval architecture and navi-
cation. and in the number Of seamen
that we could command. The tone Of
this article was strikingly in contrast
with the f1ippsnt style Of the English
papers, and showed how deeply the
Freench government disapproved Of
the embodiment which the English
press was foolisbly encouraging"

AZ the hands of the time-piec gave notice
OF the small hours, in the midst OF our
slumber and a dream, we were COM
pl;mented with a surprise serenade.--
We were metrimented after the perform
.nce of that sweet and chivalous air, which
IL so much cherished by every American,
the "Star Spanglcd Banner" that we
sprang to our feet, and peeped through tho
window; when welrecognized the familiar
faces Of some of our good and jolly fellows,
whom old age will never BE- an obsticle to
them for their fun and frolic. We thank
cd and welcomed them for their musical
compliment, & hoped that we might rneel
them, in the still hours Of night, on many
.ueh-not rainy, but on 500 more beautiful
eve. We enquired, who were the gentle
men composing the Band, for to our knowl-
edge, we have not had the pleasure OF lis
tening for many years, to brass band
performance that equals this one, at present
in our city. The answer of our query
was, that they were (sorry to learn! the
unfortunate German Band of the Inflated
Nay Flo,cer, at Memphis, Tenn; we Also
learn that they will remain for couple of
weeks in this city. Now, that the holly
days are at handy hope to hear it in con-
temptation the giving Of some merriment
or another and that the services Of these
truly talented musicians be secured. We
feel satisfied that such corps will not
leave this place urappreciatcd by our citi-
Gems. We may here announce also, that
those who may wish any information in
connection with the band, can obtain it
from the Leader, by leaving word with
Mr.. F. Tilman, or Of Mr.. F. Kretz.

~ The American Erponent, takes

of the Rev. Bishop Hopkins, Episcopal
Bishop Of Vermont, who is now lec,ur-
ing in that city. in the right sort Of
talk. We fully endorse the sentiments
express by that paper, in reference to
the priestcraftry and tho interference
of the clergy, in political Matters
Bishop Hopkins. strenuously I'D
vocates political action against Catho-
licism, or what he styled the assump-
tons of Papal power. Is this not the
same clerical interference in politics,
that has heretofore been the subject Of
80 much animadversion -? "Sauce for
tho goose is sauce for the gander." If
it is wrong for Catholic ecclesiastics to
NEEDLE in and preach politics. it is
equally SO for Protestants and ono
wrong does not justify another.
Christ said. my kingdom is not Of
this world" He particularly avoided
interfering in politics, and told his
disciples not to do so. We believe
the tendency Of all their teachings was
20 the same effect. Their invariable
and unceasipg efforts were to operate
on the hearts of individual men, to save
their souls. We sincerely wish tho
priesthood Of and clergy the present
day would follow the example Of the
originators Of Christianity, which was
unquestionably right, because inspired
of God.
The statesmen, politicians, and edi-
tors Of the country, who are employed
and supported by the people, for the
express purpose Of attending to politi-
cal matters. are generally as well in
formed, either on the dangers Of Po-
perry, or the horrors Of slavery, as
clergymen are; and they probably
love their country as we'll, and are rs
ready to save it j.; and what is better,
they are probably not so likely to be-
come enthusiasm and fanatics-not so
likely to be bigoted and intolerant, and
to arouse the people to sectarian heart
burnings and religious strife.
If we ever have civil war, growing
out Of religion. in our now happy and
peaceful land, We fear much Of the
responsibility will rest on those, who
step aside from the proper calling of
e1pounding Gods word, and saving
the souls. to preach on political sub
jects The pages Of history are red
with the blood of religious wars, that
might have been avoided, ifthe Heralds
Zion had confined themselves to
preaching the Gospel, and proclaim
ing peace to all men," The apology
given by the learned Bishop for preach
ing the crusade above mentioned, is
the same given by Archbishop Hughes,
for his interference in political matters,
by three thousand clergymen Of New
England, for meddling with the Ne
braska affairs and by those ministers
of the Gospel, who have been recently
so active in the Kansas emigration
business"
