persons present were over ten thousand.

when morals are not taught from the pulpit
What guarantee can we have of genuine social
reform, when the cushions Of the sacred desk are
regularly beaten by the doubled fists of men in a
rave of partisan inf1ammation? Why should
not laxity prevail, and crime abandon its hiding.
not the charities, and sweet amenities, and
serious duties of life to be thought lightly of,
when those who profess TO have been specially
called to give unwearied instruction in these mas-
ters, abandon their posts to pursue calling for
which they never were fitted, and one which can
give them but fruitless and temporary employ
ment at the best I? We do not expect these in.
terrogatories to be answered by the men of
whom they are made. The course of human
events is sure to supply the answer at last and
they as well as we win be ready to accept it as
the only true one.-Boston Post

A Fair Retort.

Col. Fosney is quoting largely, in his
Chronicle, from the savage war speeches OF
Andrew johnson, and the Iatelligencer has re
oiprocated by reproducing a neat eulogy OF
Jefferson Davis, from the pen of Forney.-
The following is an extract:
"He (Jeff.) was close student, a chivalric cp
ponent. a steadfast friend, gentleman in all his
relations, and in his own family singularly kind
and genial. Although undoubtedly the head and
heart of the southern rebellion, he went into i,
reluctantly, as all who heard his last speech in
the senate will remember, when with broken ac
cents and fearful eyes he bade farewell atonce to
that body and all true greatness. jefferson Da
Wis was blessed with many accomplishments
He was alike soldier and statesman. Nc
public man of my acquaini ance was more devot
ed to scientific pursuits, and more familiar with
the abstruse teachings of political philosophy
No bl anch of human knowledge seemed to be I'm
worthy of his Investigation
