The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1860-10-12

ST. PAUL AN ABoLIrIoslsr. picked up
well authe nticated and valuable fact 10
exegesis. A man ignorant OF the New Tesla
ment--a pro slavery man, We believe came
TO Methodist minister, saying that be had
heard that Jesus Christ sent back fugitive
slave. From bis efforts to pronounce the
name Of the slave, the minister concluded
that he referred to the case OF Ouesimus, and
he replied, "No, it was not Christ, but ST..
Paul Of whom this is asserted, and will read
you ttho letter whom ne wrote about it, SO
he turned to the epistle to philemon, and
read it without one word Of comment. The
man listened all through, and then exclaim-
ed, els that il? Why that St. Paul must
have been an abolitionist." That such an
impression should have been made on the
mind Of plain man the first time be ever
heard that epistle, is worthy.the attention Of
exrositors. IL is said that unsophistcated
children are the best judges Of portraits; and
so plain men may sometimes be the best
judges OF the meaning of the Bible.

The Mexican mails Of the 18th contain the
intelligence that tile military conference had
agreed upon terms for an armistice, but
Juarez disapproved Of them because they did
not sufficiently guarantee the constitution Of
1877, which were the conditional principles
Of his government.
After three meetings the conference was
dissolved.
The garrison reopened their FIRE on the
morning Of the 18th, which was quickly re-
turned, two shells bursting in the palace.
The French feet were constantly commu-
nicating with Miramon, contrary T. Juarez' )
orders.

Nlr. Berry responded that the vote would
be by counties
&. " Brent then contended that the al
sence Of any one delegate would yitate the
whole scale system, and thus il practise oper

After further debate,
}. III. Brent said that 2. +. Stuart wa
proposed as a delegate Before he voted for

solution; c,
Resolved, That any democrat Of AeSan-
dria County, present at the Warrenton con
vention, be entitled to act a 4 delegate from

". F. Carne contended that the resoIu-
ton was one that had passed every demo
cratic meeting called upon to select delegates
Tor this county for ten years past--that u
was security against packed meetings and
trickery. and that the meeting hy adding
seven additional members to the delegation

BRocKLIss BRIDGE.-Mr. Massey, Toll.kecpcr at
Brocklss' Bridge, paid into the County Treasury on
Monday q ,S74 O5 tolls collected during the month
Of May. Mr.. Massey is making the most iudicious
efforts to put the road, leading to and from the
Bridge, in good condition. Fifteen men are now ut
work on ii daily From n personal inspection, we
feel authorized to speak on this subject II Gun be
safely asserted, that the road from Placerville to
Strawberry las far the stages have run this sea
SOM is equal 10 any mountain road in the State,
which tTaverses any similar region Of country. The
constant storms this spring have much retarded the
improvement of the r0ad not only Of course through
the fundamentally of their natural effect upon it,
increasing the mud, &C., but have prevented the
bestowal Of that amount Of labor, which would
otherwise have been expended upon it. A little at
tention To the erection Of small cuvers at different
points, where mountain springs flow into the road,
and to the proper guttering Of it, would give the
travelling public Q highway during the entire year,
over which passengers aud freight could be trans
ported with the greatest facility.
