ly encouraging report of the aspects

The canvass on the part of the Union
men is being conducted with great
activity and spirit immense and en-

BUTLER has just completed a pretty

which he has visited a large number

The Maryland trouble.

This difficulty may be explained in
a few words. The Constitution of
Maryland, by a very stringent clause,
excludes rebels from voting or hold
ing Office. The Commissioners Of
Police have, therefore, appointed men
who were loyal during the war as in
spectors of election. But such men
in Maryland happen to be about all
Republicans. Loyalty and Republi-
canism, there, are one.
Governor SWAMI complains that at
least one of the three inspectors ought
to be Johnsonese, and that the
Commissioners are guilty official
misconduct in Incorporating them so.
Under what law this claim of the
Governor is made we are not in
formed. The Commissioners deny
that they are obliged to appoint the
inspectors of election from different
political parties, aud affirm that all
the Johnsonese are in favor of admit
ting rebels to vote, and therefore UNI
fit, under the Constitution, to be APP
pointed. The Governor proposes to
remove them. They deny his power
to do so. He asserts his power, and
appointed yesterday as the day on
which he would exercise it.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN.-Jefferson
Vile is now the most extensive denot
of Government stores and ammuni-
ton in the West. 1t is stated that
two regiments of regulars are to be
stationed there for the protection OF
Government property.
This strikes us as little singular
just now. We presume Gov. MORTON
is posted, but it is certainly very re-
markable that arms and munitions of
war, sufficient to equip an army,
should be concentrated on the Ken
lucky border.

Democracy ana ChrIstIanIly.

The present position Of the Demo
cratic party toward Christian organi-
cations is without example in the
history Of parties. Since the subjects
of temperance, slavery, and the eivil
war have formed political issues, the
Democracy have been bitter in their
denunciation of the churches. Their
crv has BEN the churches and the
ministry have abandoned the gospel
for politics.
What is the explanation Of this
cutlery?
Is ia sincere interest for The purity
| Of he church? Their whole conduct
proves that il is not. Look at the
course of the Courier. Its editorial
columns within the last six months
have furnished examples Of profanity,
obscenity, Of opposition to the en-
forcement of Sunday laws and tenn
peranoe laws Can paper having
these Characterization be a friend 10
Christianity Yet this sheet reads
moral lectures TO the ministry and
the churches. The course Of the
Courier is the course of all the party
organs.
IL is not because they deem political
dctivity Inconsistent Nth The tOOrk Of
The ministry. Their own conduct is
positive proof Of this. When HEHRY
WARD BEEoHER and DR.. TYING took
political action supposed to be in ia.
vor Of Democracy, these papers copied
their letters and compt,mented their
action. The trouble is simply
this; Ia the loyal States nine
tenths of all professed Christians act
with the Republican party; that the
ministry, presidents, faculties and stu
dents of our colleges are identified
with il. Some individuals have left
the churches because they thought
them too political Have they been
remarkable for their christian zeal
and purity since they are rid of their
unworthy associations2 Have they
bettered their company
The real purpose of the party il to
ostracise the churches and ministry
from political rights; to silence the
pulpit on all moral propositions which
they choose, as party, to oppose.
Hence these incessant attacks upon
the churches-their attempts to intim-
idate the ministry-their self-consti-
tuted censorship upon the action of all
Synods, Assemblies and Con
'erences, Aside from political issues
.he course of these papers is antag-
'nistic to Christian morality. Breath
ng the hatred of all apostates from
he Churches and Christianity, they
epresent the pulpits of the land as
lbanioned TO political harangues.
The families of their readers naturally
row up the enemies of the Churches
nd their teachings. Those who
earn to hate the Churches usually be-
ONE lost to morality.
While scarcely once q year merely
olitical sentiment is uttered from
ny of our pulpits, their teaching
'ould make it appear that pol tics
re preached continually. In the
anne Of morality, we protest against !
his inoessant abuse of the cause of 1

Beecher.

Many Of Mr.. BEEoHER's old friends
find it difficult to pardon his recent
political conduct. They actually boot
at the idea of his consistency, which
the New York Times attempts TO de-
monstrate. The Boston Adyertiser,
an old fashioned Republican, is hard
ly pacified by Mr.. BEEcHER's last
speech. 1t says Of the distinguished
divine:
When Mr.. Beecher's Cleveland letter APP
peared. 10 was understood by It's general
tenor that The wrtter opposed Congress and
desired 10 be enrolled among The friends oTthe
President. Then came the letter TO Ply
mouth Church, and here Mr.. Beecher en-
ioressiy declared that he occupied a position
natdi0dy bet,oee1l the President and Congress,
that he w0uid not become a partfsa,a, and that
he would adhere 10 his opinions. On Mon
day evening Mr.. Beecher delivered an
elaborate address at the Brooklyn Acade-
my OF Music, before a large assembly OF
his fellow citizens, and here he advocated
the principles Of The Republican party so
plainly and emphattcdIIy that he received
the hearty Endorsement Of eUen ne editor Of
the Independent, loho spoke after him.
Here is Mr.. BEEoHER occupying
three different positions in as many
weeks. The advertiser adds:
The charitable will say that Mr.. Beech
er, although a practised speaker and wri-
ter, has been singularly unfortunate In
having been 80 srievously misunderstood
In the last two months.
