Kirwan ON Revival Preachers.

Rev. DR.. Murray. of Elizabeth, N. j.. bet
ter known as Kirwan, has article in the New
York Observer, Of June 16, on Revival
Preachers"
"The men," he says, "who exhaust their SEN
sation sermons, their anecdotes, and meta
phors in two weeks usually exhaust the real
spirituality of the Church at the same time.
II have known a great many revival
preachers 81 the Presbyterian Church. An
accurate history of the most conspicuous of
them would have its warning lessons for the
future. Que of them, at least, was sent to
states prison. Another was deposed from
the ministry, and under an alias went TO the
west, where be died. Another was deposed
from the Church, and died in a poor hOnse.
And where there was piety at bottom, which
prevented shipwreck of faith, they became
imperi0us, defamers of their brethren. aud.
with scarcely an exception. have sweryed
from the faith, and become teachers of errors.
They have unsettled pastors divided Church
es-degraded, oftentimes, the pulpit by their
Vulgar phrases and illustrations, have sown
broadcast the seeds of error, and have given
rise to a religion of excitement which is to
the steady influence of Christian principle,
as is the scarlet flush or fever to the uniform
glow of h-alth. Some of them devoted their
winters to getting up revivals. and the other
seasons of the year to some worldly pursuit
And they made more money in the winter
than throu gu the remainder of the year. One
was an evangelist through the winter, and
spent the remainder OF his time in cultivating
farm-another in selling receipt for max
ing compost. The greater the excitement
they could create. the greater the demand for
their services; and it was said of one that be
would labor for so much a head for all he
would convert One came into little
Church, aud putting the pastor aside, said he
would pillow, sow and reap that field in three
weeks. He did SO; and added nearly one
hundred to its commandments 1t has never
recovered from the blow. a.E

down a heavy gain for the Opposition in East
Tennessee, for speak the things / know.
In conversation with number of the voters
here to-day, they informed me that they were
Democrats, but that made no difference with
them, they were going to vote for ''E. It's
noble son, Col. JOHN NETHERLAND." ] tell
you the heretofore strong arm of Democracy
is very much palsied in this section. the
people are for change in the affairs of
Government. The only excitement seem TO,
be for NETHERLAND and BRABsoN in this Sec

just disposition to get rid of the bungle-
some followers of the cross-cut administration.

A convention of the Democracy of Dallas

Resolutions were adopted against supporting
in any form, admits the doctrine Of. squatter
Sovereignty or the doctrine that Congress
may intervene, in any way, to prevent or
abolish slavery in the States or territories of
this Union; declaring themselves unalterably
opposed to any other compromise or conces-
sion on the subject of slavery; that the Eng
lish bill was an abandonment of "fnality', of
the compromise. of 1850, and, therefore, they
demand a repeal of SO much of said compro-
mise as puts stop to the slave trade in the
district Of Columbia; opposition to the bull
ding of railroad to the Pacific by the gen.
eral government; opposition to tariff dis
eliminating for protection, and to specific
duties. The closing resolutions are as fol-
| lows ~ -A@ St
| 2. That the great fundamental article OF
| The creed of the Democratic party is the per-
feet equality of the sovereign States in rights
\ and privileges, immunities and bonors and
| the indispensable complement to such prin-
ciple as this is the right ofeacb State to annul
| the compact of the Confederation whenever
| il shall solemniy deem the same compatible
with its liberty or honor.
8. That the citizens of the Southern States
are entitled to the amplest protection of their
property Of all kinds in the States aud Ter
| ritories of the United States, and upon the
high seas, and that the failure of the Federal
Government to give such protection will
justify the Southern States in throwing of
| such government.
Abovewe have what is considered democra-
cy in Alabama; and it is the kind of demo-
crazy which is overrunning the party in the
South. 1t aims at dissolution of the Union

which it is said-''YOu may set down Brad

our information is, that there will be a hand
some Opposition gain in Bradley. The edi-
tor OF the Knoxville Wing was pres mt and
heard the discussion at Cleveland, and he
states that Ten democrats called upon Col
NETHERIAND and Informed him of their in

Opposition bear of the fruits.

two since in the Asylum near Nashville, was
formerly Tutor in the University of East

recently that the tutor and the lawyer were

as he appeared to us at College, we could
not, except upon the most positive and indls-

would have been guilty of the crime with
which he was charged. With some eccentrici-

The sloop-of-war Germantown came very
near being lost on coral reef on her way to
japan from Hong Kong, near the Loo-Choo
Islands. She was in so bad position that
the guns were got ready to be thrown over
board, and preparations were made to leave
the ship. The means taken to tighten the
vessel caused her to roll of into deep water,
aud she came to anchor near the islands
above named. The officers and crew enjoyed
the prospect of what might have happened to
them If they had abandoned the ship, as the
natives stood on the beach with spears TO
tickle their ribs on landiDg.-

IMITATION.

At o'clock, p. NJ, we entered the grounds,
and found the imitation far advanced. 1t was
the intention to fill the balloon to only one
half its capacity, or 90 900 cubic feet of gas,
leaving plenty of room for expansion in the
rare atmosphere of the upper regions. This
was likely to be accomplished before 6 o'clock
P. NJ, and the flow of gas was decreased. Dur
ing this process the liveliest interest was man
ifested by the spectators in attendance. and
the eronauts. sanguine more than ever OF
success, were kept continually busy in dis
cOursing with their friends on matters per-
tanning to the air ship and the long voyage
on which they were about to embark.
The swelling volume of the balloon. and its
perfect proportion was admired, and the
beautiful boat which was soon to carry the
daring voyageurs, was examined infinitely.
The operation of the wheels to be used in the
management of the vessel was explained, and
all was enquiry, animation and satisfac-
ton.

WHAT THE CAR CONTAINED.

A peep into the boat or car, revealed a
strange medley. The most noticeable article
was an Express bag. labelled as follows:

was $50 worth of provisions furnished by

tain champagne and other refre. hing bever-

BUSINESS PROGRESSING.

Time few, and halfpast i've O'Clock ar
rived. Expectancy was on tip-toe, and the
balloon was pronounced sufficiently inflated
orders were given for the ring to he
cleared-and two men were posted at each
cord connecting with the net wolk of the bal
loon (so numerous were these cords that &C.
cupation was thus given to more than one
hundred strong armed men)-the sand bags
were unlocked from the mesbes-a and the
buOyant vessel rose from the ground. The
eronauts stepped into the ring beneath It,,
aud Professor Wise made a few appropriate
remarks, stating that he was not certain of
success, as the ascension depended as much
upon the friends around as upon the aro-
nauts themselves. He requested those in
present charge of the balloon to follow or
ders, which they all agreed to do. The air.
ahp vas then towed to some distance from
where it had been inflated, and the boat was
brought into the ring and made fast. Above
the boat was suspended the car. a capaci dls
wicker basket, aud about 1000 pounds of
ballast were placed in the boat and basket in
addition to the articles they already con-
tanned.
