Il
/ Beschsr.~-The Two Sections will sep.
crate; and two nations will be the re,
suit of that separation. The South viii
retain slavery with sill its horrors bal
the North will have gained great poinl
in not being compelled to return fugitives
from labor.
The New England States with them
principles of pisty and pssritsase freedom,
mechanical skill, and mercantile enter
pslse, added to their great manufacturing
interests, necessarily mast control the
new government, of whatever form it may
be. The agricultural States will bs osm-
pellsd TO permanently become tributary
to the manufacturing States, to q greater
extent than shsy now are. egold pro-
dasing States will pour their gold into
the strong box of these States in uncount-
ed millions, while the statesmen will be
enabled 70 continue thsir control Of the
Legislation to far greater extent than
| nov.
Then will the good old puritan religion
be re-establiahed; and the Clergyman
will be raised to the dignity Of the
Statesman, and made eligible to all the
offices of the State and be provided with
ample mesns of living BY Iap, instead of
the preoazious, and very degrading pro-
vision nov made BY frse-will offarings Of
the money seeking community. Then
will the parisioner be compelled to do
honors to Church dignitaries.
Religious worship now 90 much neg.
lectsd will be enforced by law, under
pains, and penalties. Good and whole
some moral latos will be enacted and en-
forced and finally, the return of the
good old systsm Of puritanie eivil and
religious liberty and free ioru, with i'm
proOs1asHts will be hailed With joy and
| thanksgiving, and praise to God by all
who hold our religion dear TO them. New
er since the landing Of the pilgrims has
there been day when the prospects of
the churches (E) were as aattsring as at
the present; and surely the long sought
deliveranse is at haal!
Ghost of Moses.-If you divide the
Union, have you any assurance that it
will not be divided again, and again !;
and I'D infHitum Can you say from
your heart in case of division that YOU
would feel justified in Withholding a fu-
gitive from labor. from neighboring na-
tion or subject thereof? Surely if the
I Angel of the Lard soald BE- seat frem
Heaven to "hunt" Ehe slave Hager, and
return her to her mistress, and ST. Paul
found it to be his imperative duty to re-
turn the slave Onesimus to Philoman his
owner. / will quote again the history
Of the return of Hager the slave of Sa-
ran. Genesis XVI, ! 3 and I0th
verses, "And when Sarai had dealt
hardly with her, she fed from her face
And the Angel of the Lord found her By
the fountain of water in the wilderness,
BY the fountain in the way to Shar; and
he said Hagsr, Sarai's maid, whence
contest thou ? aud whittier wilt thou 20 Z
and she said fee from my mistress Sa-
raj And the Angel Of the Lord said
unto her, return to thy mistress, and
su|is thyself unto her hand.") A NOR

an account before his puuy judgment

The New England States, you say are
to rule the new goverement. Can you be
| fool hardy enough, for one moment TO be-
lie7e that New York, Or anyother agricul-
tural State will consent to become tribu-
tary to any one or more States after the
present war ceases? or that the people
of any one State are 10 be controlled by
the States named. What, the Pacific
States remain vassals to the six puritan
ic States VITO have plotted treason to the
Constitution almost from its adoption
And what of the great West, East from
the mountains? The traitors of New
England control the legislation of the
great West and compel tribute to the six
mountains Of rocks including plymouth

ner, Philips, and three thousand Rev. in
