The CHRISTIANITY OF THE CHINESE REBELS
EsTABIIsnED-CuM0us LETTER FROM THEIR
LEADER TO LORD EIGN.--In another column
will be found an interesting narrative Of the
interview which took place at Soo-Chow on the
22d of September last between the Rev. J. J.
Roberts, missionary, and Chung Wang, "the
Faithful King" and commandcr-iu- chief of the
Chinese rebels. If. a. there is no reason TO

occurred, it places beyond all controversy the
fact that the latter are Christians, acknowledge

Mr.. Seward ON the Crisis.

The Senate chamber of the United States
presented on Saturday one OF the most in
tcresting scenes in the history, not only Of the
country, but Of the whole civilized world. The
Senator from New York-the leader and founder
of the great party which is about to assume
power over 50 many Of the States as remain in
the Union after the 4th Of March next-pro-
nounced most elaborate speech-a speech
which bears all the evidences Of careful prcpa-
ration, and which We, in view OF Mr.. Stewards
position, must accept as an indication OF the
policy Of the incoming administration. On yes
tcrday we gave Mr.. Stewards speech in full, and
we purpose this morning to spend short time
in the consideration Of the Senator's views.
Mr.. Stewards exordium is devoted to re-
view of the various Union saving plans which
have been suggested from time to time in
Congress and elsewhere. lie does not believe
in any of them, neither has he any immediate
measures Of relief to propose. With regard TO
the seeding States, Mr.. Seward believes in
kindness, forbearance and Cancellation. He
states that ''discontentcd citizens have obtained
| political power in certain States, and they are
using this authority to overthrow the federal
| government assertion which is open to
doubt II would appear rather that the discon-
tented masses in certain States have forced the
authorities TO attempt to resume the sovereign
power delegated under the constitution TO the
federal government This, however, is not i'm
portant We have to deal with effects
rather than with causes. Mr.. Seward
believes that the Union can be dissolved.
not by secession or force, but by con-
vcntion in which the people Of all The States
shall be represented; and that just now Congress
ought to supply the President with all the
means necessary TO maintain the Union in full
force; and, at the same time, If possible,
~edress any real grievances OF the
Ted States. After this has been done

lrert is so unanimous Is ii has been represent
ed In Alabama the vote for delegates to the
State Convention is twenty-five per cent less
than that for Presidential electors and we have
no doub. that absention was general in Missis
sipp. ana lorida This proves that there is still
q strong Union or anti-secession party 10 the
slave States, but that the hostile or Indifferent
attitude OF the dominant party in the North
paraIyzes the friends of the Union in the
South Once let Mr. Seward who il Ia under
stood Is The incarnation Of the views Of the
next adm:Distration-in fact, the administra-
ton itself -place himself in antag9nism to the
extremists Of his party, and he win rally
around him The conservatives, the property
holders. the ~ abiding, Union loving citizens
OF the Eastern, Middle, Western and Central
Southern slave States. He would lose tho
radical republicans, but would gain ten
recruits to every deserter. The whole question
lies in this nutshell. Mr. Seward comes down
to Weeds platform, and, rather than risk civil
war, win give up all his party distractions
That is what he means by treating the
question Of slavery in the Territories
from a practical point of view, and his
declaration on this point is equivalent
to one of war upon the no surrender section
Of his party. We may now expect that this
speech will give new hope to the friends Of the
Union, and that it will create tremendous
roy among the sentimental republicans who
will charge Mr.. Seward with Inconsistency and
yacillation. Mr.. Seward is not inconsistent
The statesman who is equal to his responsible
ties is obliged to keep pace with the progress
Of events, to he guided by the lessons Of the
past and the prospects Of the future. Mr.
Seward has not turned political summerset
but he has detached himself 10 q certain ex-
tent from his political friends. AS the re-
sponsble man in the next administration, he is
right in preparing to throw off all party tram
mcls, and to stand before his countrymen
"clothed and in his right mind" 1t is to be
hoped now that Mr.. Seward will so far mode
rate bis views as to advocate the immediate as
scmblage of a National Convention. 1t can
not be possible that he wishes to carry the
matter over to the next Presidential election.
1t must be settled now.
