The New Church Movement.

The New Church movement, in
which Doctor EDsoN B. OLDs and few
equally bigotod partizans embarked,
has proved failure. Tho State Con-
vcnton called at Columbus, to give
impetus to the enterprise, appears to
have been 80 inconsiderably attended
that the local papers were not aware
of its sitting till it had transacted its
business and adjourned. Indeed, it is
not clearly ascertaincd that there was
any convention. 1t is only known that
a call was issued, tho day fixed, and
the place of session selected. The self
appointed delegates either came to tho
conclusion that tho condition of tho
churches is not so bad as represented ;
or they manifested moral apathy in
tho highest degree reprohcnsiblo. The
failure Of the movement is probably
attributable to tho latter cause. There

torprise, so far as they are known to

The Rnfter Snecnlafnrs.

Best butter now sells at retail in this
city at forty cents per pound, and no
article called good butter can be had at
less than thirty-fve cents This is the
highest price in the memory of the
oldest inhabitant.- Rochester Union.
The Bath (Me.) Sentinel and Times
says:
The butter recently brought into the
market has not cost the farmer any
more than did the butter which he was
glad TO sell last Fall for % to % cents.
Let the public resolve that they will
have nothing TO do with butter, as did
our fathers in l779 in relation to tea
let them resolve they will not use it, or
suffer it to be used in their families, and
there will soon be a coming down in
} price.
The Salem Mass. )Gazette says people
are getting into the habit of using
syrups as a substitute for butter. 1t is
found easier to contract such habit
than to form the habit of paying fifty
cents pound for butter
Butter is dispensed with by many
Boston families, on account of its high
price That's the only way to secure q
reduction

And will stamp it with blistering, burning

You trembling and trading pack
Crouch away in tho dark like q sneaking
hound,
That its master had beaten back
You would barter the fruit Of our fathers

And sell out the Stripes and Stars,
To purchase place with rebellion's votes,
Or escape from rebellon's scars.

By the orphans who cry for bread,
By our sons who fell, we will never yield

Heavy Charges.

The use of Jifty pounds of powder as
a service charge in the fifteen zach guns
with which the Monitors are equipped,
has inaugurated q new era in Naval
warfare. All experiments with guns
against iron targets have clearly shown
that all attempts 10 produce a gun to
be really effective on iron-clad vessels
except by making them capable Of
being fred with enormous charges of
powder, have been and will be- futile
Patent projectiles and ingenious me-
thods of riding will not crush in the
sides Of the iron-clad; that wonderful
agent, gunpowder, and plenty of it, too,
alone can accomplish this The engi-
neer may as well attempt to propel a
large steamer at high speed without
consuming coal in proportion to the
result obtained, as for the artillerist TO
produce the effect he is striving for on
the sides of the iron-clad without using
charges of powder.

thirty pound spherical ball fred from

the sides of the iron-clad Atlanta. is
well known IL was the SMASHING effect
Of the enormous projectile that carried
the day.
When Ericsson designed the Monitor
he stated that il was part of his system
that guns Of large calibre, using enor-
nous charges of powder, should be in

Now this desirable end has been achiev-
ed.
