Ke Consecrate only what we OuSh


We Consecrate only what we ought
to Execrate.
We deem the following passage, from the
sermon Of Rev. Robert Collyer, Oh our na-
tional peril, worthy Of republication. It is
true as holy writ that We, as people, have
been in constant terror lest in trying to saTe
the Union We might destroy slavery:
Friends, this is the g1ave6t danger of all to
day, the surest indication that we have not
come to the kingdom for such time as this.
The foe is in deadly earnest to shatter tile
Union and preser7e slavery. We are In con
6tant terror lest in trying to save the Union
We should destroy slavery.
Only what belongs wholly to the devil Is
sacred. Indeed, it il to me terrible symptom
Of disease in some vital part, that nothing
seems to be held sacred but this most internal
cause Of all OUT agony and danger. We call
our Sabbaths sacred and We fight nearly ,eYery
great battle On Sunday. We consecrate oar
churches and then We turn tncal into hospi-
tails for the wounded, friend and enemy alike,
and let the congregations worship wherever
they ccn tind place, or not at nil. We shat

The Practical Test

an army correspondent writing from Nc
Clellan's headquarters, says:
After week Of battles, during which our
troops fought s1x Of European magnitude,
the wearicd men, without being per mit1ed
scarcely ID hours rest, were required to lay
down the musket, take the spade, and go to
digging trenches; and here they have rcen
working by the thousand, with scarcely an
opportunity to rest, adding to the fearful list
OF bruised and broken down men; while The
c1.eMy rested, au army Of blacks were doing
their digging. All theories or fine-spun OBJ
lcctions break down under arguments like
this, and the fact is too important to be
lost sight Of, that measures have been
taken to relieve our soldiers by employiug
negroes to build Notifications. l confess that
l have not yet yielded to the arguments in
favor Of arnaing the blacks; but as an obser-
VT and chronic1er ! cannot fo1hear to mention
tie progress Of this idea within the last two
weeks, I have heard officers of the army
formerly opposed TO such course, assert the
same conclusion, and declare themselves in
favor Of employing all TIC agencies 7eit+iH 7ed'h
to put t7ora The ubfNion. The negro can labor
aud be Of the greatest service with the spade.
This conclusion appears to have been adopted
il the army Of the Potomac, and there is no
saying that the negTo's adaptation 10 the h1NS1ft
may not yet be discovered by those whose
business It Is to get soldiers and fight OUT

proyal Of loyal men. The war Democrats
as well as the Republicans declare that Ills
