KIND EOITOK:-I thought would drop you

SAINT village, situated at the head OF naviga ton
on Corsica creek, which leads directly out into
Chester river. Its Inhabitants are noted for
their kindness and hospitality, and if you ever
happen this way, as | often have. you will ex-
perience a warm reception. Here are four
churches, one NJ. E., one p. E.. one NJ. p, and
cOlored peoples chapel. The NJ. E. church
is a most excellent building, 65 by 45 feet, plain
nwtside, and in, handsomely frescOed. 1t has
good lecture.room below, aad two class rooms
Itwas erected last season by Mr.Wm. H. Allen,
Of Baltimore, under the pastorshp of Rev.
Messrs. Simpers and Cooper. 1t is building
uf which the county may well be proud. The
Z. E. church stands at the south end of the
town, and is an old building remodeled. Its
present shape is that of a cross, it having pro.
lection at each side of one end The M. p
church is one of some beasty, having been re-
modelled and enlarged during the last season
colored peoples house, where, on many Sab.

This place has presented quite busy ap-
pearance for the last week or two. Court has
drawn many from ;heir homes through the
county to hear and see the law dispensed
Visiters from other counties, too, come of
course. Manufactures, also, were here with
the efforts of their skill and hand for show and
sale. Especially is court-Iims the time for ca r.
riage manufacturers TO make their appearance
here with their beautiful rockaways aud bug.
giss, and they often meet much success.
But that which stirred the town with most
interest this week, was, the assembling Of the
Association of Preachers Of Easton District oI

here on Tuesday last, and adjourned yesterday.

Mr.. ED1Ton,-Dear Sir: The gr,a, rf'i."
is over, as the politicians say.-he smoke c'ear-
ed away,-and we have breathing time again
time for reflection and the demoraliz'ng
effects of the last political campaign furnishes
material for painful reflection.
Who are TO blame for the painful! and fearful
falling away in the morals Of the people! Let
every protesting Christian, aud every temper
ance man, ask himself the question, where are
those noble bands of Temperance men that
stood so firm few years ago !-eeho answers,
where! The Goddess Of Temperance has
wrapped her mantle about her and hid herself
for shame. Her degenerate sons have disgraced
her name and brought dishonOT upon her fami-
ly. They have been worshipping strange gods
they have bowed at The shrine of party, and
left religion, temperance and morality to hide
themselves in the dust.
In reviewing a battle field, we look for the
slain and wounded. Where are they In
every town and hamlet, in every neighborhood
may be found the sad effects of the last battle,
the full extent of which eternity alone can uR-
fold. Who are the wounded lie who has
sacrificed his religious or moral principles to
political zeal or the blind behests of party
he who has used any stratagem 10 deceive and
delude those less intelligent than himself
Who are the slain lie who has sold his birth.
right for few dollars,--that right which our
fathers held so dear-the rights of freemen.-
What! sell their freedom OF Thought and action
and become the slaves of others to do their bid
ding! Shame on the name of American free
men! They truly are slain-slain of the man.
hood, selfrespect, confidence, integrity of cha
rscter, and everything that makes the man.
And yet we have many such among us
very many. And the number annually increas-
ing-so much so that if the increase continues
in proportion for the next twenty years, the
candidates for Governor will be trying to buy
each other of, as the cheapest and surest way
Of securing an election.
This buying of voters is becoming truly
alarming. 1t is demOralizing the whole COM
munity. 1t is bringing men to think lightly of
the elective franchise. 1t makes men loose all
selfrespect or respect for others. 1t places
gag upon the opinions of the virtuous aud hon.
est poor man; he fears to change his party,
though his opinion may be changed, lest some
may say that he too was bought, and it will
eventually keep this class from the polls alto
gether.
Now, what is gained by all their corruption!
NOthing-literally nothing. For, while enc
party is buying a thousand votes for twenty
thousand dollars, the other party can buy like
number for the same amount of money. The
politicians lose their money and the people lose
their morals, and perhaps the election not
changed one vote from what it would have been
had neither party used dollar for bribery. Is
there no remedy! We hope so,--this we pro-
pIse to offer in another letter.
