A PROTEST AGAINST Politics IN
THE PUIpT.-Rev. James G. Ham
ner, D. D., of Baltimore, has with
drawn from the association with the
Northern Presbyterian Church. DR..
Hammer is native of Virginia, and
will return to the South. He ays:
'My settled Judgment told me that
y could not remain identified with
the Church North without being par
taker of their sin in debauching the
Church by courting the embraces Of
Cesar. In doing this, in my best
Judgment, they have taken shame-
less and daring stride, not only to the
decentralization of the whole body
ecclesiastical, but to strike down and
destroy all religious liberty. T have
read the histories of the past to but
Little purpose, if I fail to call to mind
the evils which the Church has
brought upon herself by submitting
to- political assumptions for the
achievement of the ends of unprinci-
Pied demagogues. I wash my hands
OF the soil of all such evil doing"

FMLD EoR PHmANrERoP1sTs.- Mr..
Bright, who has given us so much
attention Of late years, and shed SO
many tears over slavery, finds no end
to his labors. On Good Friday, he
presided at Sunday School meeting
at Rochdale, at which some statistics
were made known that caused Mr..
Bright to look at a very dark side Of
the home picture. In the towns of
Manchester and Stafford, which join
each other, it. appeared that there
were 50,01O children receiving no
instruction. The locality is regarded
the most liberal and enlightened
part of England. Mr.. Bright is con-
siderably famous for nosing out evils,
and his everlasting cry is, 'sLook at
America" He told these Rochdale
people to ''look at America, and so
he tells everybody. He ought to be
sent to America. All the philanthro-
pists find that it is easier to discover
evils than to cure them. They can
not fail to discover, too, before they
are done, that the more powerful and
opulent people become, the more
poverty and ignorance there must
be-the more suffering and vice. To
politicians and demagoguAs, these
things are stumbling block

sou Davis, than boy seven or eight
years old, who never, ins all proba-
hility, heard of Scott's strong article,
written at the time, or of Lieut.. Coz.
John Merryllion Wilson; or that he
could, in any way, be effected by it;
should make ita cause Of persecution
thirty years afterwarded? or is it at
Eall probable that Scott believed his
own statement?
/ t will be remembered that what
the Lieutenant General calls stper-
secution," was the refusal of the
Secretary of War to allow claim for
back pay as Lieutenant General from
the time Scott was in Mexico, and
which the Secretary showed conclu-
siyely he was not entitled to. This
resulted in an angry correspondence,
in which the peculations and frauds
upon the Treasury were exposed to
such an extent that it was believed if
the frauds had been known, he could
never have been a aLieutenant- Gene
rail-; but, as it was, he only obtained
it by lmportunate solicitations, not
only by himself and others, but even
by ladies, engaged to go to the CAPT.
tai and use their influence to obtain
votes. It was also said it would en-
tail no charge upon the Treasury; was
intended merely as compliment to
crafty an old soldier; but no sooner
was it obtained than he presented a
claim for back pay, for rations, To-
rage, transportation, etc.
70 the Lieutenant General acting
as kls own trumpeter, and drawing
upon his imagination for facts, lau-
datory of himself, there can be no
objection; except that it is humiliat-
ing to every American that an officer
OF his rank could make such an ass
OF himself; but the malice and re-
venge, that after the lapse of ten
years, could induce him to select a
time when Mr. Davis is powerless,
and the ISLANDERS unknown to him, to
utter such falsehoods, must be re-
garded by all who value honor, truth
and manhood as below even contempt.
This is now published in the place
where the facts and circumstances are
Known, and can be established by any
of the people who took part in the
politics of the time.

WHEAT PROSPECTS, The Nashville
Gazette says it learns from Mr.. John
M. Berry, of the firm of Berry & Co !,
home, Ga, that the prospects of the
wheat crop in Georgia are most fiat
tenng. From Mr.. Lollar, who has
been travelling extensively throughout
Alabama and Mississippi during the
past few weeks, we have similar re-
port IN regard to the prospects of the
wheat crop in those States. A much
larger amount of this staple cereal
mas been sown this year than ever
before, and the blades are ALREADY
two feet high. This is gratifying in
teillgence, and betokens a determine
slon on the part of our Southern peo-
pie to depend no longer on the North
and Northwest for the necessaries of
life. 40 -

CRINoL1NE is DEAD. again have
the report that crinoline is dead. But
having heard this SO often, it will be
now received with doubt. Crinoline
has been endowed with as much vi
talty as any of the mysterious be-
iong1ngs and arrangements constitu-
ting the lower strata of fair woman S
drapery-that drapery which modern
fashion has displayed in relations so
tantaliz'ng to curious eyes, but the
exact mechanism of which is still a
secret to the uninitiated. Whether
an article which has been supplied
with such enduring animation and
existence, and which has sustained so
faithfully Its delicate relations, is now
really dead, need confirmation. But
we give positive statement on the
subject from a London letter, which
our fair readers may take for what it
is worth. The writer says (undcr
date 31st march,:
"Ia king of fashion, crinoline is
done for. 1t has gone out of the
fashionable world all at once, like a
melting snow or vanishing rainbow.
how could a poet say, a thing of
beauty IS q Joy forever?' Only the
servants and very common people
now wear the wonderful expansions,
and they will drop them as soon as
they get good look at their slim
betters. The sudden change is very
drol. You meet lady in the street,
and look behind her to see if she has
not dropped something. The rotun-
d1ties gradully collapsed, and all at
once vanished, and are now, though
lost to sight, to memory dear But
what is to become of the manufac-
turers OF those wonderful articles
which the French call cages? Can
they be used in the fisheries, or for
hen-coops? Now we have the gored
dresses and trains Of the first empire.
which, i'll a months time, will seem
so becoming and beautiful that we
snail wonder how We could ever have
admired any other fashion"

LYSoHrNa IN MIssoURr.-A short time
since. one Robertson killed Capt. Hunter.
In Atch!son County. Missouri, and es-
capped to Iowa; but last week he returned
to Missouri, was caught. and placed in
the hands of the Sheriff of Atchison
County. Pending his preliminary ex-
animation, en- infuriated mob forcibly
took him from the custody Of the Sheriff.
and hung him.
There have been times. when we have
thought lynch law justifsbIe; but we are
getting pretty much over it. In very
rare cases, it may be necessary; bat it is
generally punishipg ons crime by COM
mittins grester one. Cspt. Hunter was
man who had many friends. while
Robinson did not stand high; and Of
course, there is not much sympathy for
the latter. But strangers, who witnessed
the affrsy from a steamboat. say that
Hunter was the aggressor. having struck
Robinson number of blows with stick
OF cord-wood, before be fred; and that it
would have looked like the meanest COW.
ardice. had he not defended himself by
any means in his power.

DIED OF "MAcCoMBIE "A Scotch
man named Young. resident of Iowa
Point, was fonnd dead, on Sunday morn
ing, near hay-stack on bis premises.
he was hopeless inebriats. and was SO
far gone that he drank anything called
liquor. Not being able to procure
wbiskey, he had entered the distillery on
the sly. AMI drank quantity Of stuff
sometimes known as "backings," or the
leavings after the whiskey is run of.
which is simply poison. This dose
proved the death of Young.
We are glad to learn that the prnprie-
tor of the distillery has determined to
stop the business forthwith, and to turn
his attention to other and useful work.

How II Makes U. Feel.

We can hardly account for it, but the
events Of the present time have the same
effect upon our feelings that events dur
ing the rebellion did. For example. now,
when we hear of q signal victory over
Andy johnson. ae in Connecticut or New
Hampshire. il makes Us feel just as we
did when we heard of the battles of An
tietam and Gettysburg. When we hesr
Of the johnson men and Copperhesds
carrying o municipal election. We think
of one Of John Morgan's guerrilla raids
into some unsuspecting and unprepared
town. When we hear of the veto of tn,
Freedmens or Civil Rights bill. it calls
up memories Of Fort Pillow. When VIC
hear Of the failure to pass bill over The
Presidents veto. it brings vividly back
our feelings upon hearing Of the repulse
at Fredericksburg. when it was thought
all was favorable. When We hear of the
passage of bill over The veto, it recalls
such events as Shiloh, where our arms
triumphed after q temporary reverse
When we hear Of the failure to elect 9
Senator in New Jersey. by means of The
President bribing Republican member
of the Legislature to prevent it. we think
of grand victories thrown away by the
trsschery of Mcclellan and Fitz-Jobu
Porter. When the President makes one
Of his imbecile harangusa, we think of the
impotent rage Of jeff. Davis, when de.
tected and captured 10 disgracefnl con
di,ion. And it seems to us. that about
the Alb Of March. 1869. We shall feel like
when we hesrd of Lees overthrow and
the occupation of the rebel Capital. Bn'
lastly, when we come down to the present
stern reality, we feel strangely as if Abra'
ham Lincoln were assassinated. and the
country left at the mercy of rebels.

An Abjcct Spectacle.

One of the most disgusting exhibitions
OF the times, wse made in the United
etstes Senate. on Friday lat, by Gen
Lane. on the occasion of the passage Of
the Civil Rights bill over the Presidents
veto. He made one of his characteristic
bowling speeches but be soon discover
cd that be was not desling with the gull
lible people OF Kansas, and had to aban-
don that game. Then be undertook to
abuse Ben. Wade. bnt was soon in the
plight of the Irishman who attempted to
pull the elephants nose. He next PRO-
clsimsd line of policy. and gave ont the
impression that he spoke by authority Of
the President. inst as be does when he
comes home to Ksnsss); bat Trnmbull
and others rmoksd him ont of that. nnd
made him acknowledge that he was hum
buggipg. Trumbnll then charged him
with having. the night before. pledged
himself to vote for the bill over the veto.
and intimated that some extraordinary
means must have been resorted to, to
produce this sudden change. Lane un.
blushinsly admitted that the change was
the result of bargain which he had en-
tered into. He furthermore declared that
the Republican party was broken up !;
and that hereafter he would be found vo.
ting and acting with such men as Doo-
little, Salisbury, and Hendricks
We gather the above facts from the
St. Louis Democrat, a paper that aided
in forcing Lane upon Kansas wheH her
people were sick of him, and were trying
to get rid of him. We have q distinct
recollection Of how every man who op,
posed Lane was denounced as Copper
head. and how his followers claimed to
be the trre-blue Radicals. When Lane
comes home and goes to bowling for
johnson. we want to see whether those
men will sbut their eyes and follow him,
and go to abusing those who refuse to do
80. Such is the spectacle presented by
the Senator of State that has always
prided herself On her Radicalism

fol State; but this year. in addition to the
usual enemy. the Republicans had to fight
the President Of the United States, who
had been elected as 8 Republican. The
President had a tool of his, named Cleve-

at Hartford. upon the ground that be was
supporting the Copperhead candidate for
Governor. Tho President refused to ac-
cept the resignation. saying that he ap-
proved Cleveland's course. This affair
was Of course all made up. in order to
give the President pretext to make it
known that he desired the election Of the
Copperhead candidate, and as a hint to
bis office-holders, that if they desired to
please him. they must so vote and work
From that time. the Republicans had to
fight Government patronage; and they
have nobly overcome it. Guess the Presi-

that the people have undertaken to run
