that 1t would have caused rupture IN
the hitherto peaceful operations of the
Society. and that the unity existing be-
tween the two sections of evangelical
Christians, would have been destroyed.
What a shame for the north to attempt
To disturb the harmony of these Slave
holding Christians What au incal-
culable loss to the Society would have
been the Withholding the pccuniary
aid of the South which never has
amounted to one fourth the receipts of
the Society. In the first article of the
Constitution of this Society, its OBJ
ject is set forth to he ''to ditfuse
knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ
as the Redeemer of sinners, and 10
promote the interests of vital Godli-
ness and sound morality by the circu-
lation of Religious Tracts" DC
Christians, reflect for one moment
how important it is to have money,
the direct proceeds of chains and whips,
thumbscrews and theft, "to circulate
Religious Tracts to promote the inter-
ests of vital Godliness and sound NOR
atty" Take the pure Gospel of
Christ and erect the Christians stan
dard and see how "clean the hands and
pure the hearts" of these Evangelical
Christians who receive this money,
purchased by the betrayal of innocent
blood and all slimcd over with the de-
baucheries of the "sum of all villain
les" to send forth a knowledge of
Jesus as the Redeemer of Sinners
Alas how has Slavery corrupted the
fountains of religion and morality,
how has it hung the dark drapery of
crime over our nation's conscience, and
at each successive advancement its de-
mands have grown more imperative
and its influence has wilened and
strengthened until now this terrific
monster ascends the throne of the
most powerful Religious organization
in America, and with its sceptre all
recking in the blood of four million
Slaves, controls its action.
In proof of this statement, the at
tcntion of the reader is called to the
recent proceedings of this Society, a
partial account of which may be found
in my next article.

MIRACLES.

To deny the power of God to per
form miracles, is to deny His supreme
authority; to subordinate Him to the
force, and influence of material things;
to make Him the creature, and the
defenceless subject of forces beyond
his control; to measure The poiOer of the
h.fnay, By the conception Of the .fnite;'
and to appoint metes and bounds to
the dominion of Omnipotence: nay, in
effect, to deny the very existence of
God Himself, and to assert the su-
premacy and independence of the ma
terial universe; or otherwise to exclude
Him from all interest in, or government
over, the objects and creatures of His
creation. To suppose that He has
formed them as vast machine, and
then left them to themselves to move
forward by their own latent forces,
while He has withdrawn Himself en-
tirely from them, into some remote
space, resigning the reins of universal
government into the hands of senseless
matter, becoming Himself the ruled
instead of the ruler, and consequently
casting away the supremacy, of His
power.
III God then does not hold the rein
of universal government-if the forces
and influences of nature are not subor-
dinate to Him-if He can not suspend
accelerate, and determine their opera
tion-He can not be supreme in power,
consequently He can not be God: and
if lie is inferior to, and governed by,
the forces and influences of the mate
rial universe, He can not be their Gre
ator, for He could not create that
which is superior to Himself; He could
not create a power greater than His
own power; and if He is supreme, He
can not be subordinate. He, then, is
superior to the forces of the material
universe, and holds them all in His
own hand, or otherwise He has not,
nor ever had, any connexion with
them. If, then, He is supreme in
power--if he is the creator of material
things, and if the laws of nature are
His laws, the cmanation of His own
Omnipotent will, He has the power of
using those laws at His own discretion;
of governing the works of creation ac-
cording to the councils of His own
wisdom, and consequently of perform
ing all those wonderful works ascribed
to Him in the Sacred volume. The
Atheist, then, may consistently deny
all miracles, but he who holds the ex-
istence of God, can not. \.

gle now goes TO kanzas. The Le-
compton Constitution will there be re-
iected. \ new one will be nnmedi-
ately sent TO Congress, ahd fresh ap-
plication VIII he made for admission.
Here is another chance to wake up
the issue at Washington and through
the country. Admission can not be
resisted upon any grounds which will
not stimulate Northern feeling. and
keep alive the agitation which the
friends OF this bill profess TO deplorc.
And every man, with half an eve. can
see that every successive struggle gives
occasion for new victory OF tho
North.
The political effect OF passing this
bill, therefore, viii inevitably Ice TO
damage its authors and abcitors, and
to bnild up Its opponents. The Re
publicsns. and they alone. will reap
solid and substantial benefits from its
enactment. The Southern men who
have pushed and passed il will meet
the charge at home of having aban-
doned their original ground. and con-
sented 10 the submission of the Le-
compton No-Slavery ,asti.ution to
the vote of the people of kanzas.
The Northern Democrats who opposed
thep at the outset. and then lost
standing with the Administration par
ty at home, have alienated their new
friends by their retreat, and will fad
themselves overheard and helpless.
The Administration has all the odium
of attempting bad MEASURE without
the ability to carry il, and they will
all find the whole subject thrown back
upon them, just when they will be
most unwilling to meet it. This Is
very much like all the victories of this
most extraordinary Administration
every new one is worse than a fresh
disaster If the Republicans do not
reap positive and marked advantages
from the passape of this hill m will IL,
because they lack the ability to use
their opportunities Alright.

CHOW NOT TO DO IT,,

While our government remains in
the hands of the Slave Oligarchy who
thinks the prosperity of our section,
antagonistic to its own, who can be
surprised at its efforts to cripple that
prosperity, and bring us down to It's
own level? The following in refer
ence to the Committee on Commerce
is in point, and only of piece with
all the rest How audaciously and
shamelessly has this game been played
the whole of this session? How long
will it DC agreeable to our people to
have it so? So long as our masters
have place and patronage to hold out
to our self-seeking politicians?
"Mr. Clay from the Committee on
Commerce, reported against large
number of public improvements"
The principal function ofthis Senate
Committee on Commerce, appears to
be to obstruct Commerce by every
means in its power. 1t opposes the
bounties to the Fishing Trade. 1t op-
poses Navigation on the Lakes and
Rivers. 1t opposes necessary I'm
provement Of Harbors. 1t suggests no
protection against outrages on Ameri-
can Vessels. But what more could be
expected from such Committee? It's

continued from Ao. 8 Of tie Jomnal.
In a previous article under this head
promised to continue the sketches in
the future. But it was so long before
the paper in which the article was pub
lished came to hand, that | concluded
it was rejected, and SO dismissed the
subject from my mind. And when the
paper did come to hand, was so
crowded with business that l hardly
had time to bcstow thought on the
subject. Thus the time passed till i
found letters of inquiry reaching me
from other quarters, which reminded
me of the promise.
In my former article ] briefly de-
scribed our climate and soil The next
thing to be considered is our public
lands, etc. i am not fully appraised OF
the relative amount of land entered in
this part of the State in the past year,
as compared with the entries of pre-
vious years; but from all / can learn
on the subject, there were probably
more entries made between the first of
January, 1857, and the same date in
'5S, in the Springfield and Warsaw
districts, than had been made in the
preceding ten years altogether This,
if true, you will say is rather encour-
aging in reference to the interests of
this hitherto neglected part of our
country. As to the Government land
yet to be disposed of, | can inform all
who may be interested, that there is
now very little land at SIPS per acre,
that is at all desirable. Within the
bounds of the lands granted the Com
pany of the Southern branch of the
Pacific Railroad, there is yet good
land for sale by the Government, at
S2,50 per acre. Land warrants that
were granted by Congress before the
year 1880, can be laid on these { Il. II. J

laid on the amount of land lin one

paying in addition to his warrant.
Sl,25 per acre in specie.
In conclusion | will say that it is
truly gratifying to me to see the inter-
est that is being kindled in the East
and in the North regarding this part
of our country. In the JOURNAL issued
April 20. the cold, disagreeable wealth
er of the previous week was complain
ed of. At that time our farmers were
generally through with planting, and
good deal of corn was up. A large
portion of our corn has now been ''cul-

are looking fine To be continued.
