: DAILY EXCHAN(
REPUBLICAN DOCTRINES BEFORE TIE ELECrIoy-
rhe following Republican titbt is taken from the
Chicago Democrat, one of Mr.. Lincolu's home or
gans 1t is report Of crowded Republican
meeting at the "Wigwam," in Chicago, to hear
speeches from the Hon. ohm p. Hale Of New
Hampshire; the Hon. James r. Doolitte of Wis
consin, and the Hon. Mr. NORTH of Minnesota
just before the election. Long Johns paper saws:
Mr.. Hale preached the whole gospel Of RepubH-
canism. He took up the slavery question in its
moral and social aspect, as well as in its political
relation, and demonstrated the daty of every good
citizen to light against this monstrOus evil, and to
It, He stated that "every being created
by the Almighty in the human form is entitled to
walk this earth equal in right before God and the
law" lie said this was the cardinal doctrine and
the chief corr er stone of the Republican party.
Mr. Hale took hold of the dsunOn humbug and |
exposed its utter hollGwness. He said that no
government the face of the earth so strong
this, and that after the election of Mr. Lincoln it
would be stronger than ever. He said that at no !
time had there been any danger of disuuion. 1t |
a humbug cry, used for the purpose Of soaring |
the North. Even in 1885, when this disunion farce |
was PLAYED with heavier cast ana with more ac- /
cessores than before, and when Clay and |
Webster making those renowned speeches for |
the Union with which every one is familiar, these
two statesmen could not have looked each other in
the eye without bursting out into a laugh at the
humbug they were practising. 1t Wa alt humbug
now, and the only difference was thai the people
knew it.
Every word says the Democrat, tim, Mr.. Hale
uttered, found echo is tn e breasts of his hear
ers.
REvIvALs Numbered EY PoMrcNL EycrEMaEr.-
The Observer depores the evil effect of the existing
political excitement upon the revival spirit. 1t
says:-
Professors of religion, plunging into the stream
ofparty excitement, neglect their own individual
religious interests, their personal, private social,
domestic and public duties and privileges. They
pray less, and with less zeal, faith and anxiety
They do less to bring others under the power of the
truth, and perhaps by their misconduct, b. their
violence Of language by their indulgence iii habits
OF doubtful prOprety, they do more to bring dis
credit on their professions aud to hind + those
who in the world from coming into the Church,
than they do at any other time OF course, ut such
! seasons of excitement, we expect that men of the
world will think more of the State and less Of the
Church. 1t is harder to arrest their attention by
| the preaching of the gospel, aud too often there is
| less of the gospel preached. because men less
disposed to listen to it. Heace, it is not strange
| that such years should be years of famine in the
| Church, devouring much OF the fruit OF former
| days OF plenty.
HORACE GREELEY's MoDE OF CoHING THE CoURrIER
| ON sir. AND Mrs. LTNCOLN.-At Girard, Horace
|
where he lectured Saturday night. After his lee
tuTe he was to proceed to Buffalo, there to join the
| Presidents party on the route to Albany. His
coat collar was partly turned in and partly stand
ing up, his pockets stuffed with papers and maya
zines, and his Quaker hat sat on the back of his
head in very jolly way. He walked into the
Presidents car entirely at home, and instead of
seeking Mr.. Lincoln, chatted at opposite end of
the car, and allowed Mr.. Lincoln to seek him
While in conversation with him, Mr.. Greeleys face
wore a very complacent smile, which seemed to
say 81 brought this thing around for you, you
know. How do you like it as far as you have got?'
| Mr.. Lincoln presented Horace to his wife, and it
| was observed that the broad brmmed hat never
once left its perch upon the back of the Horacian
caput. Politeness is not of Mr.. Greeleys ecceni
tricities.
THE IsRAELITEs AND THE SABBATH.-The Je,cish
Messenger is anxious that the Jews should be more
strict in their observance of their Sabbath. In
commenting upon note from Charles King & Co.,
stating that they will hereafter transact no bust
ness on that day, it says: We regard this the
harbinger OF a movement we have earnestly lopged
to see. We have noticed with pleasure, within the
last month or two, signs like the following on the
doors of our largest places of business-"ths store
closed on Saturday''-and really trust the example
thus set will be generally and speedily followed
There is no why merchants should
transact business on the Sabbath. BY united
movement of this nature, they easily prevent
whatever "inconvenience" might to them
for observing the Seventh BAY. If it is matter
OF common knowledge that lsraelites abstain from
business the Sabbath, they will not only suffer
no pecuniary loss, but they will be the more re-
speced by their tellowcitizens for their comp lance
with the Divine command.
