Striking Conversion.

The G0zstte regards the cessation Of the
Sunday PREss and the remark of this paper
that "the human system requires one day in
seven for relaxation, rest and recreation as
q remarkable conversion; some thing equiv
nlent to That Of Saul of Tarsus, and as being
of Considerable Importance" to the Sabbath
cause; and in order to make it the more
striking, it says the Press has always Cd.
posed the observance, as a civil or religious
institution"
So new converts, in seasons of great re-
fresbing, exalt the wonderful work Of grace
in their cases, by reviling their previous
character, and accusing themselves of having
been the chief of sinners. In point of fact
the PREss has always held that Sunday
should be o day for relaxation, rest and
recreation !" and has further declared that it
should be spent in such manner as will be
most refreshing to both body and mind
and that in the nature of things each must
Judge for himself what method of spending
the day would best promote this end.
But will the Gazette inform its con6ding
readers whether it advocates the observance
and enforcement of the Sabbath y aud
whether as q civil or religious institution
and If the former, whether it disclaims re-
lipious authority for enforcing the observ.
ance of the Sabbath as a civil institution
and il it advocates its observance and en-.
forcement as a religious institution, will il
state specifically on what authority

FoRT KEARSEY, March 2.-The following
items of news were received by the Pony
Express yesterday, but their transmission
was delayed in consequence of an Interrupt
ton of the wires:
The resolution which passed the Assembly,
indorsing the Crittenden plan and the patri-
otto support thereof by Douglas and Breck-
inridge, is still under consideration in the
Senate. 1t was drawn up by Denver, adj is
advocated by a portion of both wings of the
Democracy as a basis for reorganizing that
party in California. The proposition in the
Senate is to strike out the names Of Douglas
and Breckenridge, and then indorse the SIM
pie Crittenden plan.
The Douglas Democrats have concluded
to nominate a Senatorial candidate, and en-
deavor to get a Joint Convention after ward.
A caucus had been held at Sacramento, at
which two ballots were taken for United
States Senator. On each Denver received

Liberal RengIous Journalism

The free Nation, which started with pro-
fuse promises of liberal religious journalism,
comes out in its fifth number with a bitter
personal attack upon Satan. Certainly the
liberal religious promise of that journal is
coming to a premature end. What has
Satan done to the Free Nation? They have
only to resist, and he will fee from them.
We would modestly suggest that, according
to the Scriptures, Satan seems to be entitled
to respectful consideration from a liberal
religious journal.
True, St. Paul speaks harshly of him
but st. Paul never saw him face to face;
nor do we believe the Free Nation has, how
ever much it may have felt his influence.
But ST. Paul did not profess liberal religion.
He was exceedingly jealous for his W dog
mas, and denunciatory toward heretics and
schismatics. In the Old Testament, where
his character was better understood, we find
Satan accredited with q high origin, and
associating on equal and friendly terms with
the highest society. Thus we read:
Snow there was q day when the sons Of God came
to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan
came also among them"
ahouf Then Satan answered the Lord, aud said,
ffom going to and FRI In the earth, AMI from walk
ing up and down in 1t"
1t seems to US presumptuous in the Free
Nation to revile q character who appears to
have associated on equal terms with the
O n of God then on earth, and to have en-
loved the same consideration.
But we suspect that the Free Nation has
confounded different characters, and that its
accusations apply to the devil of an evil
heart, of pride and uncharitableness, which
proclaims: "Stand apart for l am holier
than thou" and which would estimate all
earnest labor for humanity by its tithing
measure for the mint, rue, annise and cum
min of undefnable DOGMA and which re-
CARDS the charge of "unbelief" as the first
and last controversial weapon; as if man
could control his belief: aRd as if it was
within the capacity of the human mind tc
disbelieve demonstrated truth.
But the Free Nation accuses the Press o
sueering at Noah. Certainly, we intended
nothing of the kind; for we abhOr snesrert
az much as Dame Quickly did "swaggerers.'
If any thing said is susceptible of that con
struction, we retract it. We said tina
Noah was drunk and exposed himself. Doe
the Free Nation deny it7 But there wer
validating circumstances. This was the re
action of his protracted abstinence. Their
is a deep moral il that. We said, too, tina
/ in ore drunken curse, Noah fixed the fate o
one.quarter of mankind in perpetual slavery
Does the Free Nation deny that7 We Ger
tainly hope that in the looseness Ofliberalisn
the Free Nation is not going to deny tn
divine origin of slavery.

A Defense of the Cincinnati Doctrine and
Practice Of Resurrection.

A Defense of the Cincinnati Doctrine and
Practice Of Resurrection.
We publish in this paper the remarks of
Judge Key in the Senate of0hio On the trade
in the bones and graves of the. pioneers and
patriarchs, which has been carried on by
several of the Protestant societies of Cincin-
natl with much profit. The trade consists
in receiving buryiDg grounds in trust, and
then when they have become well stocked
with pioneers and saints, and the growth of
the city hes made them valuable, selling
them out for building lots, and investing the
money in pretentious churches.
Ofcourse a removal of the sacred remains
is effected; or at least ofsuch cases as make
any outward claim to it. Where there are
friends TO superintend this disturbance, it is
made with some ceremony. But as the ma
jority Of cases are otherwise, the removal of
remains has been reduced to a fine art in
this city. The transfer of a pioneer from his
final resting place to another final resting
place is done with the ease and expedition of
o hocus-pocus.
Judge Key rpugnates at this, calls it desc
Grafton, the love Of mammon in the
churches in6dtity to sacred trusts, and
even goes so far as to advise the people to
commit sacred trusts to business corpora
tions, instead Of faithless Protestant
Churches. 1t Is easy to see by this that
Judge Key is in an u~nregenerate condition,
ard therefore unable to perceive the beauti-
full symbol Of the Christian faith, in the
glorious resurrection Of a snowy, fashion
able, Pswed, exclusive church, rising like a
Fbenix from the ashes of the dead pioneers.
Emsisos, the Yankee Plato, says: "The
tIish millions have a good deal of guano in
their destiny : a rather unsaEory smile Of
the great works Of internal improvement in
America that have sprung from their sin
eWs and along which their bones lie buried.

The Sunday Enquirer, which announces to
the public that it is printed on Saturday
night () says that Mr.. Buchanan 'bids a
final adieu to the White House, generally
execrated by the people of all sections of the
Union, as one who has powerfully contrib
utsd to bring about the ruin Of the country
and that "his condition is now calculated to
disarm luminosity and soften it into pity, for
the humiliation and shame which he has
brought upon the closing portion of his
career"
Butbefore the Enquirer gets through the
article, it finds redeeming feature in this
very 'closing portion of his career" which
it had Just sunk in Humiliation and shame"
This is in his maintaining the peace and
fa1oring compromise. Thus we see how
short a journalistic circuit may be made.
Mr.. Buchanan has maintained the peace by
continual surrender TO rebellion and by vir-
tually abdicating the Government. This has
brought humiliation and shame upon the
closing portion Of his career; and this the
Enquirer regards as a redeeming virtue.
The country atlaree regards Mr.. Buchanan
very much ss the Enquirer says, but the
moral sense of the readers of the Enquirer
will none the less repel its attacks on him.
The course of Mr.. Buchanan, which has de-
stroyed the Government, is just what the
Enquirer advocated while he was doing it.
It applauded every surrender to rebellion,
and every mark Of imbecility in the Ad-
ministration, and never had a word of re-
Duke for the treason in the Cabinet. 1t de-
precated all maintenance Of the laws, as
coercion, and approved every symptom of
the helplessness and final dissolution of the
Government. The whole people, as the
Enquirer says, execrate Mr.. Buchanan, as
the one who has permitted the Government
to be destroyed under his Administration;
bat the Enquirer, by joining in this execra.
tioD, has only pronounced sentence on itself.
