A CHRISTIAN VIEW OF ABoLlTIoNIsM.-The New
Orleans Chistinn AdU0cGte, in commenting on the
"conspiracy in Texas" uses the following appropr-
ate language, to which we wish to draw the a:ten.
ton of many people within reach of our Publica-
ton -
"Southern slavery as rule, is the mildest and
most benevolent system Of labor in the world, and
the slaves, without abolition temptation, are the
most happy and contented la5orers. But, granting
it the character attributed to it by the aboitionsts
1t is even then, in comparison with abolitionlsm
most sanity and holy There is not an evil to char
acter and home to society or country, attributed to
slavery by an ignorant or lying press, that abolition
ism does not produce hundredfold. 1t is the life
of modern politics, the falsehood of modern phoso-
ply, the apostacy of modern civilization. If ever
men deserved the doom which Benedict Arnold es
capped W. H. Seward, Horace Greedy, Charles Sum-
ner Wendell Phillips and their abetters, political
and clerical, are the men. And yet, Southern men,
and patriotic Northern men, too, who are determn-
ed to resist the demon of abotionism in every FORM
and to make no compromise with the insidious mon
ster, and who simply contend for the constitution
of their country, and the Union based upon it are
denounced sometimes by Southern men as fire.
eaters, extremists, ultras and disunionsts! Shame
on the ignoble souls who thus attempt to weaken
the public confidence in reference to the monstrous
iniqu,ty of abolitonism. This indirect support of
in their aggressons than anything else. Even now,
Lincolns organ at Chicago, John Wentworths pa
per, boldly advocates the overthrow Of slavery in
the States as the doctrine of the republican party
and shames the republican leaders who are too timid
to avow it 1t quotes Lincoln's language, embody
ing the same sentiment. But so far as we can see,
nothing but defeat, andthe election of an abolition
list, will teach Southern men, and constitutional
men generally, the lessons of patriotism and politi
cal wisdom. United, black republicanism could be
easily defeated. The people are willing to unite,
but the demagogues and Office seekers, who curse
the country, will not let them. And thus we are
divided into three parties when ought to be one;
Just as the Jews were divided into irreconceable
factions when Jerusalem and the temples were tot
tering to their fall. Our country has fallen upon
evil times and nothing but the providence of God
can save US, for vain is the help of man. While
Christian men should use all the political means in
their power the present should be time of general
humiliation and prayer"
