HARD on THE PARsoNs.-The editors Of
the Golden Era have one or two unsubju-
gated writers on their corps of regular
contributors who lose no opportunity to
hit the parsons. Professor ClearquiIl"
gave the readers of that journal the fol-
lowing last Sunday. which must have
served as a pleasant subject of contempla-
ton during the morning discourse "Not
long since, as l stood near n place Of
worship, and saw the elegant pastor alight
from his carriage and daintily ascend the
broad steps. and his flock of fashionable
peacocks following after, I imagined that
the devil was lcering from the belfry, and
the bell rang as if against its will, and
these words. which will give you some
trouble to End in Watts Hymns, ratified
in my brain:
None but the wealthy can get th" treasures here:
Slices OF Heaven. at nix thousand 4 year"

4 BLACK EDIToR's OPINION. The
Black Republican is n newspaper in New
Orleans, edited by a colored man IA cler-
gyman), who says:
THE colored man and the white man
can not live together in this country ; they
must, and will have to separate, unless
the Congress of the nation will give them
a place for themselves, for MS it was with
Abraham and Lot, so it is with us, and
the sooner we seek n home for our rising
generation, the better it will be for us.
Our final destiny, so far as l can dimly
see, is that in three hundred years it will
be q rare thing to see n colored man in
this country. Like the Indian, our race
is destined to become extinct in this coun-
try, unless we move ourselves"

GEO. D. PRENTICE, q recusant Yankee,
who advocated slavery for some time after
the institution was dead, is nov a red-hot
Aboltionist, and is making q tremendous
TODD about its. +. Flag.
That's so. If there is one above all
other editors in this Union whose public
course we have particularly watched, it
has been that of George d. Prentice. For
a year after the rebellion broke out, he
was all that a good and loyal editor could
be-but just so soon as the Government
found it expedient to arm the negroes to
fight for the Union, then he turned apollo
gist for rebels and slavery. But, to give
the devil his due, he is now on the right
track m he consistent.
