Perversion Of the Scriptures is not, BY any
means, confined TO this country-though in thst,
IS in other matters. We do the thing on some what
larger scale than elsewhere.
Many learned Doctor, Of Divinity among US have
proved, and are in the daily habi. of proving, that
Slavery is a divine institution, sanctioned by the
Scriptures. In England they scarcely carry mat
ters 30 far. They are content there to prove on.
Of Scripture that man has the right to beat his
wife. The case is thu. stated in The London Illus

We publish this morning detailed account OF

nounced by telegraph. 1t is stated that Walker
left Granada on the evening of the 18th inst, and
after marching all night, met the allied Central
American army at Masaya the next morning The
two forces Joined battle at once, and continued
fighting throughout the day and evening. About
midnight the tdings were received BY Walker that
Granada had been attacked by portion of the
allied troops, who, after feeble resistance, had
gained possession Of the city, Upon this announce
ment, Walker evacuated Masaya with his whole
force and took up the line Of march for Granada
lie arrived there On the morning OF the 18th, and
succeeded in dislodging his enemy. Meantime, the
soldiers of the allied army had commenced sacking
the city in search of plumber, and committed the
usual outrages in such cases on the inhabitants
After the engagement with Walker, they retreated
in good order, taking away with them all the sup
plies, money and other vauables which had fallen
into their hands. Walker thus left without the
means of subsistence for his men, and as he could
only obtain provisions by another successful con-

the United States with respect TO Slavery and it's
Extension, as set forth in its formal declarations

Presbyterians whose conscences have been drugged
