Losing Faith.
+. GRIMES.

Henry Ward Beccher, who witnessed
The diegraceful scene in the senate cham
bcr at Washington, on the 4th inst, and
others OF his kind, vince under affected
mortiGcation. What is the matter with
them, have they lost faith ? But little
while ago these fanatics were loud in de-
claring the administration at Washington,
to be the special instrument of Providence.
Abe Lincoln, the smutty ioder, has fire.
quenly been declarged an inp!rumeut in
the hand Of God. Has there been a change
in that respect? Nay, nay, gentlemen, OF
the black robe, we have always been dis
posed 20 take you at your word; and we
arc not disposed to dispute it now. We
have a remarkable instance recorded in
Scripture Of the hand of Providence being
seen writing "Mcno, tekel, Upharsin,
when Bclshazzar and his friends were rev.
elling in dsunkeness. Aud certainly the
city of Washington has been the abode OF
filth and drunkenness long enough to favor
the idea that the aamo might occur again.
