My text inculcates the old Scriptural doc

crisis the second birth of Republican Liberty.

era of 10 Its first Eirtlf" with all its weight

who stood with anxious solcitude, beside the
cradle Of a newborn republic, IT'S father and
defender, after the dawn Of tlf,t &usPicious day
upon which the Declaration of Independence
was hcralded from the hOnored walls of old
Philadelphia, and pealed along the deep in
tones that shook the English throne? Need
ask you 10 trace with me the long and bloody
track Of the American Revolution, and recount
the valorous deed of nation of patriots, with
spirits too heroic and noble TO submit to British
tyranny, and hearts too brave and dauntless to
be conquered by British arms? Need point
you to that glad day when the thrilling mes
sage came across the dark sides of the Atlan
tie that European powers declare America
thou art free and independent, and England
cries, we cannot conquer thee,-Gol plant thy

dU4aD AoAINsT VULGAR LANGUAGE.

There is as much connection between the words
and the thoughts as there is between the
thoughts and the actions. The latter ire not
only the expression of the former, but they
have power to react upon the soul, and cave
the stain of their corruption there. A young
man who allows himself to use one vulgar or
3fOfane word, has not only shown that there
is a foul spot upon his mind but by the utter
ance Of that word he extends thlt spot and in
flames il, till, by indulgence, ii will pollute
and ruin Ihe whole soul. Be careful of your
words as we'll as your thoughts. If you can
control the tongue that no improper words are
pronounced by it. you will soon be able, also,
20 control the mind, and save that from cor
Fuption. You extinguish the fire by smoth-
ering Il, or by preventing bad thoughts burst
Ing out In language. Never utter word
anywhere which you would be ashamed to
speak in the presence of the most refined fe-
male, or the most religious man. Try this
practice little while, and you will soon have
e o1nmand of yourself.

RESPONSE OF y W. ssEN DENITAII..
Prior TO the Revolution, which resulted in
the establishment OF the Independence of these
United States the social, moral or religious
and political condition Of the greater part OF
the human family was pitiable in the extreme.
But few Gf the masses of the people in any
section of the Globe, or under any form of
government, occupied a higher position in any
aspect than the most abject servility. Few,
indeed, vcnturcd or dared give ulicrancc to
that innate feeling implanted by the Creator
in every huu9dIr heart, that man is endowed
from his birth with certain inulenabe rights,
among which are the rights to Life, Liberty
and the pursuits of happiness. Few ventured
to call in question the divine authority of Mag
istrutes Popes Popentates or Kings, to rule
with Il rod of iron, or to slifie the conscience,
or TO consume their substance nu@ oppresS in
every conceivable way, their subjects for the
gratitieuion' OF the most grand aud lofty am
bition or love OF fame, for satisfying the
most diabolical and selfish passions peculiar
to mans animal nature. Notwithstanding this
reign of terror continued TO oppress unto,d
millions for ages, man despite nil these ever
gave indubitable evidence of his love for, and
right to Liberty. There is an adaptation and
identity of mans nature with Liberty. He
may be destined to never ending bondage; his
reproachful condition may be met with voluh-
tary acuuiescence; admit him upou the turret
of fame, and there divest him Of the benefit Of

A prisoner in the camp Of General

that Mcbride and Parsons had 5000 or
10000 men Raines 15,000-ten thousand
Of whom only were effsctive-Cooper.
5000 and Coffea ov,I o. - --vua 7iOOO u
500, and Besides these Standwaite had
1900 Indians, and the plan of theinvasion
Of Missouri, was that the rebels would
march in three columns under Cooper,
Parsons and Rains. The first points to be
taken were Springfield, Mount Vernon and
Rolla.
They thought that there was only about
5000 Federal troops in the State, and
thought the capture of Jefferson City and
st. Louis an easy matter.
Hindman made a speech, in which he
promised the stars and bars would float al
along the Mississippi and Missouri rivers
before Christmas.
! The rebels are reported as in a frightfu
condition. Only about three-fourths o.
the men are armed at all, and many that
are armed are only provided with shot
guns and squirrel rifles. Dozens Of regi
ments are without tents, and the lack o
clothing and blankets is generally felt
| Hundreds Of men are barefooted, bare
beaded and ragged.
! Our informant was amused at scores o
cavalry who had large Mexican spur
tackled on their bare heels Provision
are very scarce among them. Bread ant
water, with an occasional relish Of bee
without salt, was their principal diet
There was no discipline or order with thes
portions Of the rebel army. Half of then
were drunk when whisky was to be had
and for blasphemy and general immora
conduct there, their equals were neye
known.
