Pairifk Henry.

The English church having been estab.
lished by law in Virginia, became, as all
such establishments are wont to do, exceed
ingly intolerant towards other scots. Iu
prosecution Of this system of conversion,
three Baptist clergymen had been indicted,
at Fredricksburg, for preaching the gospel
OF the Son Of God contrary to the statute.
Henry, hearing this, rode some fifty miles
TO volunteer his services in defence of the
oppressed. He entered the court, being
unknown to all present save the bench and
the bar, while the indictment was being
read by the clerk. He sat within the bar
until the reading was finished and the kings
attorney had concluded some remarks in
defence Of the prosecution, when he arose
reached out his hand for the paper, and
without further ceremony, proceeded with
the following speech:
May it please your worships: / think

tered this house, the paper now hold in

problem. Judging from the alGcri.y { =
displayed in furnishing rs with the necesSa-
ry transportation to the Indian country, it
would be very soon indeed. But we out.
sj@c deriis should not presume to judge too
much.
Another subject Of speculation is, what
is to be done with the northern Indians
employed as soldiers in this battaliCn.--
They expect to be discharged soon, and
they tue fools y expect CASH, in return
for their services, as promised them. viii
they get it? | hope so. They are now
W II posted up in our affairs, and will make
excellent leaders for their people in their
little predatory iucursons into tie Sound
and it wouid bc as well to send them oil
with good feelings towards us, as to give
them no cause 10 seek for redress Of grew
lnceS.
l believe, Mr.. Editor, l have now given
you the correct position, and gossip Of the
northern battalion; and believe, the stu
alton of the country is much the same, as
heretofore. The prairie is still here; also
the falls, and the vine Maple land is still

slowly waved the paper three times around
his head, wh"a, lifting his hard5 and eyes
to heaven, with peculiar and Impressive en-
ergy, h. cXclaimed; " Great God - The
cxclamation-the burst Of feeling from the
audionce--werc oyerpowering Mr.. Henry

alliance of ecclesiastical and civil power
are about to be dissolved; at such period,
when lberty--liberty Of conscience lis
about to awake from her Slnmberings, and
inquire into the reason of such charges as
! find exhibited here in this indictment ~
Another fearful pause, while the speaker
alternately cast his sharp piercing eyes on
the court and the prisoners, and resumed
" If | am not deceived, according to the
contents of the papers now hold in my
hand, these men are accused Of preaching
shS SOoHSi VI NuC Gun vi NOu htGut
God !" Another long pause, while he
again waved the indictment around his
head, and deeper impression was made
on the auditory Resumng his speech:
May it please your worships: there are
periods in the history Of man, when corrup-
ton and depravity have so long debased
the human character, that man sinks under
the weight Of the opprcSsor's hand--bc-
comes his servile, ahject slave; he licks the
hand that smtes him; he bows in passive
obedience to the mandates of the deSpot;
and in this state of servility he receives the
letters of perpetual bondage. But, may il
please your worships, such day has pass
ed away From that period when our
fathers left the land of their nativity for,
settlement in these American wlds-fOr
libcrty--ior civil aud religious liberty--for
liberty Of conscience to worship their Gre
ator according to their own conceptions of
Heavens revealed will; from the moment
they placed their feet upon the American
continent and in deeply imbedded forests
sought an asylum from persecution and tyr
anny--trom that moment despotism is
crushed--the letters Of darkness were bro
ken, and Heaven dccreed that man should
be free--frce TO worship God according to
his conscience. Were it not for this, in
vain were all their suffcrings and bloodshed
TO su6jugate this new world, if we, their
offspring, must still be oppressed and per-
secuted. May it please your worships,
permit me to enquire once more, for what
are these men to be tried This paper
says, for preaching the gospel Of our Saw
ior to Adams fallen race" And in tones
of thunder, he exclaimed: IPha hW
hare Mcy rioiqied" While the third time,
in slow, dgnifed manner he lifted his
eyes to heaven, and waved the indictment
around his head. The court and audience
were now wrought up to the most intense
pitch of excitement The face of the pros
ecuting attorney was pallid and ghastly,
aud he appeared unconscious that his whole
frame was agitated with alarm, while the
judge, in tremulons voice put an end to
the scene, now becoming excessively pain

From the Oregon Weekly Times.
Is the War Ended

1t would seem from the news recently
received from the North-that the war in
that section is not ended The threats oi
the Upper Nez Perces, and 'Cayuses, Of
hoStlites-and their insolcnt treatment Of
Capt Robic, who took up to them the
treaty annuities from Gov. Stevens, seems
to portend a gathering storm, which many
have not looked for. The Lower Nez
Perces are disposed to friendship but it
will at once be seen that. they are likely to
be forced into hostilities by the Upper Nez
Perces and CayuseS, under the lead Of
such Chiefs as Looking Glass Three Feath-
ers, Eagle From The Light, Stock Whit
ley, Red Wolf, aud Kamiakin as their great
war leader. Kamiakin with his choice
band Of Yakima warriors, are supposed to
be in the vicinity of the Grand Ronde-
aad it is thought that portion of them
are the Indians whom Maj. Layton and
Col. Shaw, of the volunteers, met and dis.
persed on the 18th and 18th Of July, as
related in another column.
From the best information VIC can get,
kamiakin is stronger now than ever for
war. He has his own band of Yakimas,
the Snakes aud the Cayuses, with a pros
pect Of the Nez Perces and Spokans join
ing him.
Kamiakin acknowledges that he signed
the treaty last summer with the intention
Of breaking it; this he teld Col: Wright, or
his messenger. lie is determined on war,
as is young Pee-peu-mox-mox.
We have the most reliable Information
that these Indian hostilities have been well
planned, and that they extend from the
Missouri river to Oregon and Washington
Territories and that the Mormons are
aiding and abctting the Indians, and are
cognizant Of all their hostile movements
That the Mornons furnish them powder is
manifest from the capture Of twenty-five
lbs. by the volunteers, whom the Indians
owned up that they got Of the Mormons
In support of our conjectures tina; the
Mormons are giving aid and comfort to
the enemy I'VE have reliable information
that over year ago-an express mesSen-
ger came TO Brigham Young, at Salt Lake,
from q leading chief of one of the Rocky
mountain tribes-stating that this chief had
been travelling all summer, endeavoring to
unite the different tribes against the Gen
tiles (whites.) Soon after, another express
messenger came in from powerful Rocky
Mountain tribe, saying to Brigham Young,
&" That he and his people were to pass
through Salt Lake City, on visit to Hum.
boldt river, and that he need have no fears
Of injury to any of his lthe Mormon) peo-
ple-that they could an travel in safety in
his country by giving the secret signs of
the MormonS."
This shows>that the Mormons and Indi-
aus understand each other-that they pro-
tect and udyisc each other and there is
good reason for believing that the Nor
mons are aiding and hbeLliug the savages
in war of determination Of what they
designate-Gentiles.
With such facts and other information
as we have before Us, We reasonable con,
clude that the war is not ended yet-and
VIC are more and more confirmed in our
opinion heretofore expressed-that these
savages must be whipped in a way that
they will stay whipped"
