the inYariaole custom, during the time Of those

THE NEW CHURCH.-The State Convention
for the purpose Of organizing the proposed
New Church--te be placed under the spirit
ual guidance of Bishop O1Ds, late Of Fort
lafayette, sam NEDARY, of the Columbus
Crisis, and Rev. J, F. GIVEN, lately dismissed
from the Ohio COnfsrSnse for dislsyalty-
was appointed to be held at Lancaster, the
present residence Of 0Ids, on the 14th iBSt.-
We have seen no account Of the deinss of the
convoeation Of these " Latter Day Saints, but
presume it's proceedings were harmonious, and
that the object in view was accomplished in =
satisfactory manner. After the style of the
bogus Southern Confsdsracy the cornerstone
OF which is slavery, devotion to that "sum Of
all villainiOS" constitutes the fundamental ar
ticle in the new faith and the foundation of
the church, and as all the managers are thor
Oughly orthodox on that question, there
was no room for disSension among the brsth-
ren. Rev. GIvKN, who announces through
the last number: :Ofths "Urisis" that his new
paper will appear in a few weeks, will doubt
less give the official proceedings at length in
the first number of his Journal, which is to
be the recognized organ of the new organiza-
tion.
1t il understood that the new establishment
is to be a methodist" church but it will
probably, Whsn fully organized, assume a coz
mopolitan character, in order to admit the
faithful Of all other PsrsuasionS. Certainly
provision should be made fer Bishop HOPKINS,
Of Vermont, whose abjsct devotion to slavery
and labored defence of the infamous institu-
tion has secured him the laudatiOns of the dis
ciples Of Medary, Olds and Vallandigham, of
high and low degree, and obtained him the
votes Of Ben. and Fernando Wood, Sam Cox,
and their cOnpesrS, for Chaplain of the lower
bransh' Of Congress. The organization win
lack completeness should he not find admit
tance to prominent position.

Athens the younger is waking from her hi

eral appearance of life and reiuvenation.
The promotion of Gen. Grant has given a
new thrill of hope aud promise to the whole
people-how could it be otherwise? We have
waited for il long, as we have done for all the
great and important movements of the Ad-
ministration; but il has come at last--and for
this, and all other mercies, let us be thankful
1t was the voice of the people, and it is pres
tige OF new and grander triumphs in the COM

ties, is our trust.
The Legislature has discussed a great many
ponderous questions, during their session,
among which, is the proprie y Of giving the
members a free ride upon all the railroads in

arrangement-for them. They have also dis

large and enthusiastic audience at fremont

suffering from a severe illness, he held his
hearers for more than an hour, enraptured
with his thrilling pathos, keen humor, and in
imitable power of personation, and though
his subject was the trite old theme OF Tenn
perance, such was his strange influence over
the hearts of his audience, that the applause
was often tumultuous, and at the close they
gave him three hearty cheers, with unani-
nous invitation to speak again upon his re-
turn from New Jersey, whittier he has been
invited by some of the prominent men of that
State. He will then visit Portland, where he
will, no doubt be as cordially welcomed at the

SENATOR FEssENDEN.-We clip the fol-
lowing from the Washington Correspondent
ofthe New York Commercial Advertiser OF
March 9th:
Senator Fessenden, who has been confined
to his rooms for week past, was in his seat
again this morning, and was warmly greeted
by his brother Senators. A few may regard
him with Jealousy because of his superior a
bllity, or because he is not willing, as leader
OF the Senate, to humor their caprices, but he
enjoys well-deserved popularity in the
north wing ofthe Capitol. His views on H.
nanclal matters are generally regarded as
sound, and there is not a more incorruptible
and unchanging statesman in the Republic.
AS leader of the Senate, charged with the
double, and at times, rather conflicting duties
OF securing appropriations, yet guarding the
public purse, Mr.. Fessenden displays marked
ability. No man is better versed in the art
OF putting facts, nor has he many equals in
reach of thought, versatility of resource, and
power Of diction.

SANITARY CoMMIssIoN.-The Collector of
Bath, Roland Fisher, Esq, has handed US 500

er says 1t is a contribution from Capt WILL
LAM BARNES, of Woolwich. Capt. b. is a
gentleman with whom we have long been ac-
quainted. In the war of 1Sl2-15 he was in
the service, and was on board the Enterprise
at the time of her fearful encounter with the
Boxer off this harbor. True he was but a boy
then, but he has vivid recollection of the
bloody issue of that battle, in which both
commanders fell, though they have since slept
peacefully side by side in the Eastern Gene.
terry in this city. Capt. Barnes has been
lifelong Democrat, AMI never dotted an or
crossed on the regular party ticket till
about year since, when sense of duty to
his country and the promptings OF patriotism
compelled him 10 cut loose from associations
OF long standing that he might give aid only
to loyal men and TO loyal cause.

We propose that the debt which is now so
rapidly accommodating in this country, is to be-
come one of the strongest bonds of union :;
tending to make the people loyal, patriotic,
and Interested in the management of public
affairs more than they have previously been.
This proposition is the very reverse of the
general tone of remark aud publication We
are all apt TO consider that debt is a weakness
and hiudrance; and while this may be true.
partially, as regards an Individual, il is differ
ent in the case Of community, of course
having regard that the debt does not reach
out OF proportion to the property pledged.
Let US illustrate: At the outbreak of this
war, the Indebtedness OF the government was
very small. The bonds were held by corpora
tions in limited quantity in this country, and
the greater part of the loan was in foreign
countries. When Secretary Chase began the
issue of his first loan, the people of the North
were at great distances of opinion and feel
ing Pro-slavery and anti slavery doctrines
had among the masses nearly an equal mum
Der of followers.
The stability of government itself was seri-
ously discussed. and the loan of 1851 was car.
ried through with mach caution and consider
able depression in price. Bonds which to-day
sell for ITO, sold for IS. But with each success
siye loan, the wants of the Treasury have
been supplied, until to-day the announcement
comes that even the five per cent. legal tender
notes are exhausted. Now why is this? 1t
is folly for US to say that it is all owing to the
imitation of the currency.
The tact is, the people have been converted.
We cannot disguise it, that three years ago we
doubted whether we had government or not;
not that every man felt so, but the majority of
the people who had the money acted as IL
they believed it. Our debt has increased
every day since, and for a year to come 1t
promises to keepincreasing; and yet to-day,
loan of five hundred millions can be placed
with the people at better rates, and in quick
er time than was one hundred million, three
years ago. Thousands of valuable lives have
been sacrificed en- the altar Of our country,
and yet the Presidents call for two hundred
thousand men, does not create more thaffA
passing remark, and the men will come in
obedience to the summons
Debt is strength. Let the war close in one
year, and 1t will close on a North united nv n
stronger bond than any geographical or polit-
ical tie. Republican and Democrat alike
hold the obligations of the same government
Sustain this government, and your securi-
ties are good. Destroy it, and you ruin your
selves This debt will knit the country to-
gether SO that secession viii be impossible.
we hazard nothing in saying that had the
South held large amounts OF United States
ponds I'VE years ago, there would have been
no rebellion. RANKrp

MYSTERIOUS DIsAPPEARANcE.-Serg
Major Frederick Todd ofthe 18th u. S. infan-
try came to this city from Portland on the Sth
inst on his way to Washington to be exam
ined for promotion, and having in charge a
detachment of recruits. He took lodgings at
the Adams House, and in the evening dressed
himself mostly in citizens clothing and went
out since which time nothing has been heard
of him although the most diligent inquiry
and search has been made. He had but about
$40 in money in his possession. His disap-
pearance is the more mysterious as he was a
steady and temperate man, who has been
for some time in the service and the promotion
which he anticipated from his visit to Wash
ington had long been the object of his amb-
ton. He has wife in Portland to whom he
has been married but few months.-[ Boston
