| THE UsIes Rev. Andrew Manship, preached Ia
very feeling and impressive sermon at the Red Lion
Camp meeting on Friday afternoon last The
| speaker when abiding to the distinctions OF So
| ciety and the objections made by many towards
becoming identified with the Methodist Church ow-
ing to the phrase siater'' and "brother" being
| common expression amongst the members was des
clnted upon with powerful effect and whitening
rebuke applied " those who are In the pursuit Of
this worlds goods to the exclusion of piety and re-
ligion, and believing themselves superior to the
| poor and lowly. In his pcreration he was truly
eloquent and referred to the fears entertained by the
| people of the dissolution Of our glorious Union
lie said he had no fears-the difficulties in Kansas
| could soon be adjustea-there was remedy, one
| that would never fail Let the gospel be preached
throughout the Territory and roigion predominate,
and quiet and order would reign supreme. He
hoped Achison, Stringfellow, the slsye'owners and
their slaves would get converted and become meek
| and lowly followers of the Lsrd, and brotheriy
feeling would soon follow In the United States
christianity was spreading and increasing like a
mighty avalanche, and In its march the Union be-
comes more firmly welded and strengthened, and
over this mighty Republic the ensign 50 dearly re-
vered and oherished by US would ever continue to
Wave DER tho land Of the tree and tho home OF the
brave"
