ONE FACE.

MASSACHUSETTS TO BE EXPELLED FROM The
UNION.
The moderate and discreet Richmond Va. }
Enquirer is of opinion that Southern members
at the next Congress should turn Massachu-
sets out of the Union. We hope they will
try. Its grievance is the Personal Liberty Bill.
"The slaveholding States can no longer, with
safety, delay to act. What course shall they
pursue? This is a grave question, but 1T must
be promptly and resolutely met. If the act OF
Massachusetts goes into effect, it will be the
duty of the South to resist the entrance of the
members of either branch of Congress from
that State into the Capitol, until it is expunged
from her code book The South remains III
its bearing to the North precisely where 1t
stood when Washington first entered upon his
Presidential duties. 1t has never been guilty
of the slightest aggression on any one OF the
so-called free States. From this position 1t
must not swerye a line.
The metropolis of the Republic is located
within its limits. That metropolis it must con-
troll, and expel therefrom the Cloths and Van
dals who are undermining our great political
edi6ce. No member of either House who
comes from State which sets at defiance
constitutional provision, or law palpably in
conformity with that constitutional provision,
should be permitted to take his seat"

THE HOUR COME.
From the Montgomery tAla-l Mail.

The Temper of the SOuh.-Concerning
the Slavery question, the South has not been,
for many years, in so quiet a mood. There is
perfect placidity of sentiment throughout
the slave States. We have no Indignation
meetings, no torrents of defamation and de-
nunciation, no fiery, threatening resolutions.
For all these, there is a deep calm. And the
reason is, that at length after decades of bick-
erings, the whole section is agreed that the dag
is at hand! At length, at length, and for the
first time in many long year, the South occu-
pies her position, untrammelled by thrlce-ac-
cursed compromises and looking only to the
Constitution for the measure OF her rights For
the first time too, she sees her fanatical enc
mics clothed with full power to do their will
in the House of Representatives of the United
States. And thus there is made, for the first
time the true issue between the North and the
South How it will be decided, is another
question but it is glorious that IL IS to be de-
cided that few short months will give the
conflict its elimination and that, whether the
hordes of Free, Sellers and Abolitionists are
driven back, impotent, overpowered by the in.
nate conservatism of the whole People, or the
South is compelled to withdraw from Gov
eminent which is fast becoming her greatest
enemy; in either event, our real relations with
the antagonist section will be brought out in
Doiu IoHci. IHc Ohy vi HyPoCiioy hHu uupiicity
will be over our friends will be our friends,
and our enemies, oar enemies.
"There never was a time so full of hope for
the South, and for the maintenance and the en-
tension of Slavery. The wit of man could not
devise for us a better relation than that which
we occupy to the forces of Free-Soilism. We
battle not for half our rights, but for the aclsole.
Our enemies have ample power in one House,
to do that thing which all parties in the South
have said shall be cause for dissolution; and
for all the purposes of detriment to the South,
the action of that House will be as potent as if
the deed could be carried through all the par
liamentary processes necessary to make it
law. The Representatives who thus control the
House are melted by frantic, bowling constitu-
ences at home. Can they recede? The South
cannot"
Brave words Let the two Parties, Pro-Sla-
very and Anti-Slavery, meet each other, fairly
and squarely, and test their strength. We 60
for a fair field, an open fight, and no favors.

SLAVERY IN THE CHURCHEs.-We notice that the
unfortunate slavery question has been creeping into
the New School Presbyterian General Assembly,
now or recently in session at ST. Louis. We notice
in the proceedings of the 22nd inst. the following
On the 22nd instant the Moderator, by request,
laid before the Assembly, the following preamble and
resolution adopted by the General Association OF New
York:
Whereas The silence of the General Assembly
of the Presbyterian Church. N. S. at its last
on the subject of slavery has seemed to this body to
be rerograde movement, calculated to excite alarm
in the minds of the friends of humanity and religion,
therefore,
Resolved, That our delegate to that body be in
struced to express apprehensons this subject,
and to assure them that we hold in adherence all
such naction, and that in continuing COrrespon-
dence with ecclesiastical bodies having churches in
slave holding States, do it the rather that we may
bear our continued and earnest testimony against the
sin of slave holding than to express the least acqui
escence in 80 great wickedness.'
Abolitionsm and every other ism seems to have
made its last and mightest stand in the churches at
the North, and if the Union should be dissolved
it will be mainly owing to the degeneracy and dema-
goguesm of the Northern pulpits We cannot say
that the tone of national politics has been I'M
proved by the infusion Of the preacherly element
neither do think that the standing influence of
our churches is much elevated by the mngling of
their pastors with the political contests of the day.
Some little amusement has been afforded OF late days
here by the earnest endeavors of reverend gentle
man to get up K. N. lodge in the neighborhood of
SCOTS Rill in this county Somehow or other he
did not quite succeed. We beg of him to keep 10
the legitimate duties of his honored and honorable
vocation, and not attempt the uncongruous mixture
of politics and religion. word to the wise ought
10 be sufficient. The Lord has called men of all
kndreds and tongues, and it is not for his proessud
minister to say that any whom He hath chosen is
common or unclean.
