Tn, New Church Movement.

The New Church movement, in which
DR.. Edson B. 0lds and few equally big
oted partisRns embarked, has proved q
failure. The State Convention called at
Columbus, to give impetus 10 the enter
prise, appears to have been 30 inoonsider-
ably attended that the local papers were
not aware Of its sitting till it had trans
acted Its business and adjourned. Indeed,
it is not clearly esoertained that there
was any convention. 1t is only known
that call was issued, Sthe day fixed, and
the place Of session selected. The self
appointed delegates either came to the
conclusion that the condition Of the
churches is not SO bad as represented, CT
they manifested 8 moral apathy In the
highest degree reprehensible. The failure
Of the movement is probable attributable
10 the latter cause. There is net one Of the
projectors Of this enterprise, SO far as
they are known to the public, who is emil
nsnt for spiritual sttainments other than
| those derived from the bottle. The bull

For mere pot-house politicians, to under

their own benefit because the already
established churches meddle too much with
politics, is 30 pateus an absurdity that
sensible men, no matter what their politi'
cal associations and opinions, are not like
ly to commit themselves to Ii. If the
churches we're pro-slavery, and msde the
Democratic party the sheet anchor Of theil
hopes here and hereafter, DR.. 0lds and his
brethren would be the last men in the
community to deelaim against politics in

Vhurlsv weeds Proposition 70 AbOIis
the Homestead Law,


Mr.. Weed, fearful Of irritating the peo-
Dle Of the South in coming years, has made
4 proposition to abolish the Homestead
Law and pledge public lands for the pay
Rent Of the interest on our national debt,
which be calculates will be four thousand
millions ct the close Of the war.
Probably two thousand millions win be
sur annual interest. The South, he main
aains, having no interest in the payment
Of taxes on q national debt, will vote
against it. Therefore we need some other
security, and that is to be found in the
public lands. To this proposition 1t may
be objected:
First. The proceeds Of the sale of public
lands would net be sufficient to add much
10 the public credit. The income from this
source In years past has averaged less
Ahan two millions year. This would pay
she interest on one ssVsHty-fflh part oj tA'
debt
Second. By far the greater part of th'
arabic land has already been pledged fol
various purposes, such as schools, agrieul
aursl endoWments, railroads, SO.
Third. Congress will vote quarter sec
ton of land to the soldiers after the war
This il will be rather certain to do.
Fourth. The most reliable means Of Sc
curity is to increase our population AM
productive resources. Let the food gate
Of emigration be opened. The honor o
1oval men North snd South will prove al
efeotusl barrier against such insanity a
that Of depreciation.
The plan Of wise statesmsnship Is I
