The Militant Church.

DR.. Cheever has gone to Europe. 1t seems
by the N. Y. Independent, that just before his
departure he and his particular friends held a
love-feast at the house of one of them, in
which they blew of, in parting blast at all
who do not believe that the Doctor is ..the
voice of one crying in the slavery wilderness,
and that his is the only pure anti-slavery
mission. The Independent had spoken kindly
of the Doctor, in an article reviewing the
difficulties in the Church Of the Puritans, and
recommended to British Christians, who have
been appealed to for aid, to make their dona-
tions directly to DR.. Cheever, instead of to
divided church, the control of which is now
in litigation. But il also denied the claim of
the Doctor, that he was the only minister
who preached that slaveholding is disquali-
fication for church-membership, and showed
by proof that many other churches not only
preached this doctrine before DR.. Cheever,
but that another clergyman in New York
had insisted on resolution in the General
Congregational Association, taking this
ground, when Dr. Cheever had introduced
one in language susceptible of less radical
Interpretation.
The question is chiefly important to DR..
Cheever from the fact that his appeal TO the
British aboitionists for money to carry on
the war, is based on the claim that he is the
first minister who has dared TO preach that
slaveholding is a sin, and that such a radical
doctrine arouses such hostility in this country
that his church can not be sustained without
foreign aid. Therefore, the Doctor over
hauled the Independent at his little love-feast,
and described its article as "a compound of
bitterness and -'misrepresenta-
tion, insolence and insinuated SANDERS and
the worthy man intensified these remarks at
ehurch-meeting on a subsequent evening.
The Independent had also said that in 1856
the Doctors views were so liberal that he
had slayeholding member in his church,
knowing her to be such. The types changed
the figures to 1866 taking advantage Of
which, the Doctor pronounced "the whole
charge an entire and perfect falsehood." /"
Another brother spoke of the bare-Gaced
talsehood, and the mendacious audacity
of those with whom we are contending,o .
meaning the Independent and the brethren on
the other side of the British aid question.
Having thus refreshed each others faith.
the Doctor departed, escorted down the bay
by his friends in another steamer, with pro-
fuse use Of pocket handkerchiefs. The Lnde-
pendent fred parting salute, after the
Doctor left, in which 1t proved the truth Of
all its statements, and put the falsehood
where il belonged, aud then heaped coals Of
fire on DIR. oheever's head, by praying for
him, and invoking blessings on him, and
beseeching 'the great Head of the Church to
guide, comfort, sustain and strengthen him,
and TO bring him TO US again in the fullness
Of the blessing Of the Gospel Of peace p
This stroke always takeD the wind out of an
adversary in pious quarrel. It is doubtful

Texas NOT ADAPTED FOR FARMING-A San
Antonio correspondent Of the Mobile ALA ]
Mercury writes as follows: "The experience
of the last five years is sufficient to establish
the fact that the country is not, and probably
never will be, farming one, and therefore
there are no profitable objects in which slave
labor can be employed. Our proximity to
the Rio Grande, the unsettled nature OF
affairs there, the facility with which slaves
escape into Mexico, make this species OF
property very insecure upon the Western
warmness of feeling on the present exciting
issues, it is only such ~ Indifference as must
always attend an absence of direct and per-
sonal ,interest-because the Importance Of the
principles contended for are not sufficiently
brought home to this country, isolated as Il
is geographically, and peculiar in many of its
features"

MENTION OF GUANo Two CENTURIES SINCE.
A correspondent of the Historical Magdzins,
for July, says;
In The Art of Metals, by Albaro Alonzo
Barba Cure of st. Bernard's, Potosi, trans
lated by Edward, Earl of Sandwich, and
published in London in 1874, the author
says at page l6: "0ut of the islands in the
South Sea, not far from the city of africa,
they fetch earth that does the same effect as
the last aforementioned. 1t is called guano
q. c. dung;) not because it is the dung of sea
fowls (as many would have it understood }
but because of its admirable virtue in making
plowed ground fertile. 1t is light and
spongy. And that which is brought from
the Island of Iqueyque is of a dark gray
color, like unto tobacco ground small. AL
though from other islands, nearer africa,
they get white earth inclining to sallow,
of the same virtue. 1t instantly colors water
whereinto it is put, as if it were the best
leigh, and smells very strong"

Proves too Much.

The Placer Herald publishes speech deliver
ed by B. F. Hallett, in June last, in Washington
ton City. Mr. Hallett therein interprets the doc
trine of "Non-interference with slavery by Con-
gress IN State or Territory and in the District of
Columbia" to mean that IN a ceftain contin-
gency Congress can and should interfere to pro-
tect negro property or, in other words MAINTAIN
negro slavery in the Territories. Whereupon
the edi or of the Heraid says surely it cannot be
denied that Mt. Hallett, the author of the Gin
cinnati platform, is ga proper person to coustrue
its meaning" With equal force we may say,
surely it cannot be denied that Mr. Douglas, the
atthor of the Kansas Nebraska Bill, is proper
person to construe its meaning. And we know
that he thinks it means just what it says,
viz: that "the true intent and meaning of
this act is not to legislate slavery into any Ter
ritory or State, nor to exclude it therefrom; but
to leave the people thereof perfectly free to form
and regulate their domestic institutions in their
OWN WAY, subject only TO the Constitution of the
United States"
And what is more to the point here, than any
recent speech of Mr. Halett, is the fact that his
views on this question, as uttered just about the
time the Cincinnati Platform was written, agree
precisely with those now and always proclaim-
ed by Douglas Hear him at that time We quote
from pamphlet copy of his speech published
at the time, now before US, and which any
Brecknridger can have the pleasure of examin-
ing;
alt 1.-THE question of slavery belongs to the
States, and the people in the States must take
care of it. The same principle is equally sound
tchen applied to the people Of a Territory Instead
of saying whether slavery shall or shall not exist
in the Territories, we will organize the Terrific
ries, and let the people there settle for themselves
They acH knO~ best Whatts for their interest. That
is THE PRINCIPLE OF THE KANSAS BILL
Here, it will be seen, Halett says the prin-
ciple of the Kansas Bill" was that Congress
would organize the Territories, and then-any
time after such organization-any time BEFORE
| they ask admission into the Union-dny time
while in their Territorial condition. the people
thereof would be at liberty " to settle ii for them
selres." Now he declares the principle of the
Kansas Bill to be that the people of a Territory
time after they have been furnished with Ter
ritorial organization, and not until they come to
adopt Constitution preparatory to asking ad-
mission into the Union as a State Mr. Placer
Herald, was Hallett right then, or is he righ,
| now?

The Election OF Col. Baker.

Al the last election in Oregon, there was a
fusion IN many counties, of all parties opposed
to the reelection of Gen. Lane and Dslazon
Smith This fusion secured some twenty mem
bers Of the Legislature. They were elected as
Jasl0a candidates, as anti Lane and anti-Smitb
candidates, and not as anti Breckenridge, anti
Seceder, nor yet as Douglas Democrats-for the
reason that the fusion movement had been con-
summated and the election held before ANYTHING
was known on the Pacific coast of the secession
at the Charleston Convention. Well, fifteen of
these fusion members voted for Baker, ire of
them took open ground for Douglas, avowed
themselves his earnest supporters, and refused
to vote for Baker. And yet the Breckinridpe
papers in this State are attempting to hold the
regular Democratic party responsible for his
election
Why even Delazon Smith, himself, in his pa
per, the Oregon Democrat, does not have the un-
fairness, not to say meanness, to accuse the
Douglas Democracy of his defeat, or of the sue
cess of the Infamous coalition Hear him:
"On Tuesday last the. infamous Legislative
coalition between the Black Republicans and
Bushies succeeded in their long meditated out
rage, by the election of J. w. Nesmith and L.
d. Baker to the Senate of the United States
for the respective periods of five and six
years"
While they are prating about this matter,
however, we will remind them of the fact that
Mr.. Buchanan, in the early part OF his admins
traton, appointed TO Office an out and out Re-
publican, who was an old personal friend. We
will also remind them of the fact that Mr.
Buchanan, Dan. S. Dickinson, and every Federal
office holder in Illinois sought to accomplish
the defeat of Douglas in his great race with
Lincoln in 1858. We will remind them still
further of the fact that Butler Breckirridgt
candidate for Governor of Massachusetts
Richard rockingham, Jr., one of the editors O
the Boston Post, administration organ,) ant
Whitney, Collector of the Port of Boston. wber
Democratic members of the Legislature O
Massachusetts, " fused and voted for the infa
nous Sumner the dirtiest Abolitonist il
America.

SQUATTER SovEREIGNTY.-There is not one
single Breckinridge speaker in the broad limits
of this Republic, who does not know, when he
asserts that Stephen A. Douglas is in favor OF
squatter sovereignty, that he is asserting SLAM
derous untruth. In no speech ever uttered by
that great State sman, in no letter ever penned
by him has he ever avowed himself in favor of
the doctrine of squatter sovereignty. On the
contrary he has ever opposed that dogma.
While Mr.. Breckenridge, in his recent Lexng-
ton speech declared, that Cass, the author OF
the Nicholson letter, and the great champion OF
naked, genuine " "seaatter sovereignty" in ls4s
represented his principles. rent for Cas- be-
cause Cas- represented my principles" is his Ian
guage. What principles did Cass represent ?''
inquiries Douglas in reply at Baltimore Why,
continues he, =" he had just written the Nichol-
son letter. The Nicholson letter was non-iater-
rentioH, nth squatter sorereigaty added"

EcoNoMY.- people of the eastern States
are compelled to exercise much greater economy
than those of California. There half bits.
three cent pieces and even one cent PIECES have
to be carefully nursed, by the humber classes.
ere they swell into dollars. Why according to
the Savannah republican, there is net a dog in
the State of North Carolina with long tail:
They are all cut off to keep them from thrash
ing down the huckleberry crop. And we have
always understood that in Eastern Virginia dogs
were taught from early puppyhood, to " banker
after persimmons and blackhaws and to the
end that they might the more ef1ectually avail
themselves of that sort of food, were trained to
climb trees with singular dexterity. That's the
region that Bill Nunnally and Ben Anderson
came from. That's so.
