Exercises;


The seventh annual Introductory aad sapp!e.
mentaYy exercises we're commenced at Evanston,
On Sunday, the 25th, with sermon In the morn.
ing By Bishop Simpson, On the Dutlesand Reepon

tione Of the ministry.
BISHOP s1MrsoN's SERMON.
The sermon Of Bishop Simpson was very able
one, abounding In practical sense and wisdom.
Bis text WAS Tim, ir, 12-16:

tion, II charity, in spirit, in faith, In purity.

Take heed nnto thyaelf, and unto the doctrine !
continue in them; for In doing this thou shalt
both save thyeen and them Tint hear thee.
The sermon is to be published complete. We
wll not, therefore, mar its beauty by IN attempt
ed synopsis.
pR. 11TFANT's SERMON.
In the evening, Rer. @. Il. Tiffany, DID,, de1iv-
cred very able eezmon. His text was from Mat,
xtii, 52.
Then eaid ho unto them, Therefore every Sc,ibe
which Ia instructed unto the kingdom Of heaven,
ia llEe unto a man that ia an householder, which
bringeth forth out Of his treasure things new and
old.
Methodism originated and grew out Of tho labors
Of one of the rfpeet scholars Of England. The
work the church has had to do, not less than the
circumstances formerly surrounding her ministers,
rrecluded, In other days, that degree Of mental
culture which has e1nco become an imperative
duty. 10 retain md educate those begotteD OF
her labose INTO a lively hope, she had to make
proof Of her competence and ability. Such step,
though msnifestly necessary, was TO considerable
cxteht unpopular. Erroneous opinions Of the re-
form contemplated were too commonly held, pro,
judsces againet human Intervention IN the pfeach
er'e work we1e too deeply seated, and the fear 0t
giving room to mere1y worldly ministry, too
jcalons1{ held b. the church to be done away with
out u careful examination OF the proposed. new
measures
A chief difficulty In thepopula1 mind arose from
the corruption or the idea that " Cod qualities
thoee whom He calls" Perhaps the root OF the
error is to be found In the stranger Idea that Ia too
commonly attached to the office and work OF q
preacher. We often ignore the TACT that God calls
some mtn to Be LAWYERS, some to be physicians,
&c as certainly az be ca1ls some to bs preachers
though the mode and authority OF the call may
be different. Now u God qualities because He
ca1la, or calls because he has qualified, the fac'

The revised Charter Of the city Of Chicago
contains the following provision: "And
whenever at any election it shall appear
that there have been more than six hun
dred votes pol1cd in any election precinct,
tits hereby made tho duty Of the Common
Council AT LEAfr TWO MONTHS before the
recurrence Of another election, to divide
such precinct into two or more districts,
and appoint places for holding elections
therein" To guard against political knav-
cry, the Legislature provided that the
changes in election districts should be
made "at least TWO MONTHS before an
<lection." The wisdom Of this is apparent
to ercry one; for a corrupt majority in
the Common Council should not be al
lowed to take snap judgementupon voters,
and change election districts and voting
places upon the eve Of an important cleo
tion, and place the polls in places which
their political friends alone arc notified
Of: Disregardlng the plain language Of the
Charter, md the rights Of voters, the Com
mon Council last evening, barely one
week before the election, carved the wards
Of the city into election districts, and fixed
voting places to suit their partizan purpo-
scs; and we hare no surety that they will
not change: them again before election,
for if they may change them one week
before. thev mav one 1avu or one honr
before.
In either casc the time is not sufficient
for The people to become familiar with
the subdivisions Of the wnrds, and learn as
to the voting places. The people must
expect just euch frauds as these from the
secesh party now in power; theT arc
driving their partizan measures with a
high hand, and will shrink at nothing to
further their schemes. Let honest citizens
search out the polls on election day, and
circumvent their designs.

itself:

RICHMOND, juno rs, 1855.
Mr.. William Fitzgerald;
letter yesterday that you we're still In prison,
and can asEure you that It ahall be no fault
Of mine Il you do not remain there during
your natural life. When promised to inter
cede With the military authorities In your be-
haH, believed your 2ssprluce that the sue-
picions asainEt you were without foundation !;
but on calling on Gen. Wlnder I found that
it bad been reported 70 him, by gentleman
ofundoubred loyalty and veraclty, thst you
have been for years IN enemy aud riifer Of
Southcrn Institutions
In 1856 you voted for the Abolltion{st, Ere
mont, for President. Ever since the war you
have maintained a sullen silence In regard to
its merits. Tour son-xho In common with
other young men, was chilled to the defence
Of his country-has escaped to the enemy,
probably by pour advice. This Is evidence
enough to safely me that you are traitor to
tlcicnt to justify me IN demanding you from
the military authorities to be tried mud execu.

ed UnIted STATES Senator.

% The Aboltionists in the Ohio Legisla-
ture have reelected that arbitrator and
disorganizer. Ben WADE, to the United
States Senate for six years from the 4th Of
March next. The Western Reserve has
triumphed. The voice of the conserva-
tive majority in the State has been disre-
garded. ODLIN and PATTERSON, in the
House, and GUNcKLE, in the Senate, Of
this county, all voted for WADE. Tie
Democrats voted for Hon. II. j. JEwRTr
A number of members elected on the fu-
sion ticket, unwilling to be transferred

tel for EWING.
Mr.. GUEoREL, of this couuty, is the
gentleman who offered resolution against
extending the compliment of a committee
TO wait upon Mr.. CRITCHFIELD and inform
him of his election, on the ground that he
was reported TO have said that one, half the
people were indifferent as to whether JEFF
DAVIS on ABE LINCOLN had charge of af-
fairs at Washington. He now votes for
II man for United States Senator, who
said he did not wonder at people deSerting
to JEFF DAVIS; he had brains he might
desert himself Aud besides, WADE is an
avowed disunionist So mnch for the

Great speech,

We conclude to-day the publication, in
The Daily EMPIRE, of Hon. @. u. VALLAN-
DiGHAM's powerful speech on the civil war
in America, lately delivered in the House
of Representatives. The eagerness with
which it is sought for by the people, as
sures us that no apology is necessary for
devoting. .our almost entire space to its
publication,
The speech is one of the ablest ever de-
liveed in the halls of Congress, and will
commend itself to the earnest attention of
{ the American people. 1t is replote with
historical and political facts and compar-
isons abounds in eloquent truths of
mighty import TO the nation it embraces
within It's far-seeing, and comprehensive
views the whole ground of our national
troubles, and boldly and forcibly points
out the only.saie and sure way to emerge
fnOm them with ourliberties preserved and
maintained. 1t takes the ground that
Abolitiahism, not,slaysiy, is the cause of

MIR, VaIIandigham's speech.

The Boston Courier, the old Webster
Whig organ Of New England, says Of
this great speech
We have read Mr. yallandghams speech,
delivered in the House on the l4th inst, in
full, and propose TO print as much OF it as we
can fud room for. 1t is an extremely able
aud very honest speech. No one can read
it aud help believing that Mr.. Vallandigham
is brave and honest man, and the speech
itself affords irresistible evidence that it is his
unfAlteriug devotion to the Union and the
Constitution which has led those less loyal to
either, to stgmatize him as a secessionist and
a traitor His opinions will answer for them
selves, but for its historical value aud its
strong grasp of The future, the speech ought to
have the widest circulation.

to be an able and powerful effort. The
