own works badly. Both boats then returned
up the river. During the engagement the

WAY MARKS TO THE "oLD PATHS.
Mr. EDITOR "A few days since you de-
voted a large space in your Journal to the
publication OF a very able Fast Day Sermon
on the "Old Ways" With a high apprecia-
ton of the many noble truths uttered therein,
it is my opinion that much of it will have a
tendency to mslead the public mind.
Why this everlasting talk about "consoli-
dating our Government and building up a
despotism" of suspension Of writ of habeds
corpusi Why this continued disputing
of States rights, and the "usurping" of the
rights and powers of one State by another
Why the perfectly ungrounded assertion that
the antagonistical interpretations of the con-
stituton have brought upon US the nameless,
shuddering horrors Of this war and that the
rebellion was engendered and developed by
two conflicting theories both Of which are
untrue to the real spirit and declaration OF the
Constitution; Can it be that pure, unselfsh
and highly enlightened patriots and christians
SO misunderstood the real cause, nature and
magnitude Of this hydra-headed monster, re-
belloni
1t is said that Franklin, Washington, JEFF
ferson, and Adams consented to the planting
of tree, akin TO those in the forests of Jea-

the virgin soil of the sunny South, and is be-
ing very prolific, and receiving the incessant
care and unremitting attention of very many

culture, it has finally shot its roots and
branches over the largest and fairest portion
OF our lovely land, blightng with its poison

reach The people, justly fearing its wide
spi eading, destructive and dAmning influence,
simply discussed the danger of its growth
(this wds turning 10 the old Paths) which did
not nor could not cause in urious results
Every Northern and Southern patriot and
statesman, whose name is worth mentioning,
has expressed his detestatlon of the institu-
ton of slavery. In this free Government, all,
but the dumb, have been guilty Of free speech.
Now, sir, the conservative class OF the
Northern people have always preponderated
and oyerruled the abolition party, and in a
measure have always submitted to the rule,
and granted the exhorbitant concessions Of
the South. Still farther from this, the
sagacity and patriotism of the largest
portion of the Northern people have
not been doubted by large portion of
the southern people. have before me i'm
portant testimony on the point in question. -
