1.-THE PRINCIPLES Of CHRISTIANITY" AND
THE SYSTEM OF SLAVERY"

1.-THE PRINCIPLES OE CHRISTIANITY" AND
THE SYSTEM Of SLAVERY"
The following extract which we take from an ar.
tcle in Socktons Bible Times" for August, entitled
1.-The Pulpits of Conscience,' serves us as con-
venent text for a thought or two, which we do no
know We can express in a better connection
"Then Conscience asoends his Northern State puL
rit. Iie says he has been in the South and found
many exemplary Christians there, and advises the
cultivation OF charity. Turn him out turn him out
A South.sider A dough.face! A man stealer The
very coat on his back was stolen from the toll of the
slave, sponged with his sweat, aud stained with his
blood No such preaching here
"Then Conscience ascends his Southern State pull
pit. He begins by saying that although not an ultra
Abolionist ne is an anti.Slsvery man, and feels it
his duty to apply the principles of Christianity to the
system of slavery, and ts preceps to the conduct of
both masters and servants. Ride him on rail !!
Give him coat of tar and feathers. Hang him on
the next tree We would sooner listen to the devil
than to such preacher as that
1t will be seen that this assumes "tho principles Of
Chrstiantyt be opposed to "the system of slavery"
and that "auti Slavery alone deem il. their duty
to apply" these liberal principles" and sacred
"precepts to the conduct Of both masters and ser.
wants."
Without stopping to enquire how far Christianity
would apply principles" and "precepts to the con.
duct of both masters and servants" if Christianity
condemned the relation of master and servant, we
desire TO say with reference to the main idea of the
author, two things -
LIST. Slavery is not inconsistent with Christianity;
and
I'd. No people on earth, more than Southern mas
ters, are aborng to apply the preceps Of Christian
tv TO the conduct of both masters and servants
The very same paper from which we cut this con-
Trajectory sentence about the Christian regulation Of
an anti Christian institution, coDtains among i,a
thought crystals" beautiful expression of great
truth which ia resstlessly at war with the hackned
idea that "the Institution Of Slavery" is sinful. No
iastitption is sinful. Man s sinner and often vio-
ates the pure law of bis righteous Maker, but in
stisutioa has no SOUL 10 brain, or heart or moral
