PROVIDENCE AND PoLITIcs.-The church
from the days of the Crusades has taught
the doctrine of special Providence. 1t is in
its rituals, songs and sermons, and is an es-
sential part of its creed. Upon this belief
is founded the duty of prayer. 5EJf
In the late campaign this dogma has
been put to the severest test. > s
Priests, praying men and praying women
have presented the bloody issue Of "bleed-
ing Kansas" upon their knees, and after
posting their God in regard to the doings
of the Border Rufians and the wickedness
of the Democratic party, called on Him as
the unerring Judge of all hearts, and the
omnipotent dispenser of human events, to
put down the powers that be and 60 for
"Fremont and Freedom"
The thirty-fve hundred clergymen who
attempted to arrest the legislation Of this
country by threatning Senators with the
wrath of the Almighty, their imitaters and
sympathisers throughout the land, the for
ty thousand deacons and five hundred thou
sand feeble minded men and sickly women,
who, trembling under the lash of these die
tatorial priests, all joined in one general
supplication to put doa0n the Democratic
party. Every fact, every argument, every
consideration that could be brought to bear
upon an AIl-wise and Omnipotent Being
was piously presented and aid devoutly ask
ed. Here was case that called for the
especial interposition of Divine Power, the
strongest case ever presented by mortal
THE dloodiest picture in the book Of
time," and yet what is the sequel. The
people of the United States, it seems,
"were left to regulate their domestic insti-
tutions in their own way, subject only to
the Constitution" The principles of the
Nebraska Bill were not only endorsed by
the people but by the Almighty himself
if there is any truth in the dogma of "spe-
cial Providences." Either Beecher and
his satellites were mistaken in their facts,
or else deceived as to the character of the
Almighty in interfering in such matters.

From Nicaragua.

The last advices from Nicaragua are,
that General Walker had appointed Fer
min Ferree, a native Niearaguan,. as Minis
ter to the United States. Col Wheeler,
the American Minister, was still in poor
health, and was about to return home
q Reports favorable to Walkers continued
success in Nicaragua are sent to the Uni
ted States, and among them, is one to the
effect that peace will soon be proclaimed.
The following which we take from the
Panama Star, of October 23d, gives diff
ferent account of Walkers late victories,
from those already published.
From a private letter received from Grey
town by the Royal West India Steamer
Dee, we have been favored with the follow
ing extract:
"From the interior there are so many
contradictory statements that really none of
them are reliable, the most SO is, that on
the 11th, Walker marched bis forces to Ma
saya, and when within two miles of there
the allied forces came out to meet him and
after some skirmishing retreated to that
town, where Walker received very warm
reception, so much SO, as to think Granada
more hospitable quarters. On bis return,
which was most unexpected, he found the
city in possession of party of Chormorrists
from Chantacles, numbering some 800, who
had sacked the city, even Walkers private
papers coming into their hands, and Grana-
da was theirs were it not that in their ca
gerness for plunder they neglected the nee
essary precaution for defence. They strip
ped Walker of all his clothing and provis-
ions, as well as those belonging to the ar
my. Walkers position is critical one, and
on his next battle depends his fate. He
receives numerous augmentations and plen-
tiful supplies by every opportunity, never
theless the desertions from his army are nu-
merous. In the last battle he was $50
strong; the 800 who occupied Granada
made bad use of their time, and thought
more of plunder than of duty; had they
burnt the town, Walker was completely
ruined. The few Americans who were in
Granada behaved well, defending the ordi-
nance, guard house and hospital.

Freezing.
The Detroit Free Press of Saturday
morning has the following items, furnished
by the arrival of the propeller Gen. Taylor,
not before noted: H--aa
The Gen. Taylor passed the North Star
near White Fish Point, bound up. She
also reports the propeller Mineral Rock
aground on the Saut Flats. A scow was
procured to aid in getting her off; which
undertaking was probably affected soon af-
ter the Taylor's departure. The propeller
B. L. Webb. which was repairing some
of her machinery at Whisky Bay, was ex-
pected to leave on the 1lth inst, bound up.
The Gen. Taylor brought down all the
survivors from the steamer Superior, but
one. Mr.. Rice has kindly furnished
free passes to them over the Michigan Cen
trail Railroad. She brought down the body
of Austin W. Lester, mate and pilot of the
propeller B. L. Webb, who was frozen to
death at Whisky river, Lake Superior, on
the night of the sth inst The propeller
was lying at Shaw's landing on the 7th
inst. Mr. Lester, the steward, clerk, and
one # the wheelsmen went early on the
morning of that day in the small boat to
the Saut, for the purpose of getting bolts
for one ofthe wheels, and other necessaries.
They started on their return the same
night, during heavy storm from the west,
which soon drove the boat ashore. The
party then proceeded on foot, wading
through water middle-deep, till they reach
ed Whisky River, which they could not
cross, and where they remained in sight of
the propelleril Sunday. Mr.. Lester died,
from freezing at half past 9 o'clock Satur-
day evening. His comrades had their
feet frozen. Mr.. L. was citizen of De-
troit, and leaves, we believe, family.
