venient to spend yesterday-the Sabbath at
this place-Plymouth. Indiana,-and in
accordance with my usual custom / atten-
dcd church. 1t happened to be the Bap-
tist Church. there saw-what for the
sake of Gods holy religion. trust | may
never see again the house of God prosti-
tuted to base political purposes. The first
thing noticed on entering were two large
Rails wrapped with red and white Ribbon,
and close to them was banner on which
was inscribed in large letters "Noe Negro
Amalgamation.' On looking around the
room. saw another Banner on which was
inscribed Freedom is National. Slavery
Sectional, while Immediately in front of
OF the Minister'S desk, stretched along the
side Of the room was piece of blue mus
lin about 3 feet by ten. on which was in
scribcd in large red letters. "Lincoln and
Han,lin." In the name Of God, is there
no limit to republican fanaticism! Must
the feelings OF pious, respectable people be
thus outraged and insulted when attending

that the Hall in which the services were
held was occupied for other besides reli-

not adjourn until late hour.--too late for
those whose business it was to remove
the banners and other ornaments that had
been taken there for the occasion, after
cleaning up the room and replacing the
seats. without fatigueing themselves more
