of All Saints, In Lambeth, one of the Lon
don boroughs, has been for some time the
object of interest on this subject, while it
has been the theatre OF very disgraceful
and outrageous mobs. On the Gath utimo
it was the scene of great uproar.
The pious opponents of Ritualism made
q gallant attack upon the church, its min
listers, and its religious emblems, including
the "cross"! Aprocession of clergy and
choristers was Kissed and hooted. During
the reading of the lessons for the day there
were groans and other manifestations OF
disorder. The divine who was to preach
the sermon was forced to cut short after
speaking for six minutes. When the Eu-
charistic service began, general riot took
place, with shout of three cheers; a rush
was made upon the altar, one of the crosses
swas broken and kicked about, the beauti-
full font was broken, and general fight
ensued amidst cries of "Down with ritu-
alism!n "Shame! shame!" "God-eat-
ers!" Traitors !" &c. And thus ended
the worship in All Saints.

HUNNIcUTT, who has turned a whining
hypocrite Of negrophilism, was once the
severest denouncer Of negroes. He voted
for the ordinance of secession, end long
before had been noisy and passionate
secessionist. He was BRECKENRIDGE De-
mocrat in 1860, and the Democratic organ
in Fredericksburg having espoused the
cause of DOUGLAS, he entered into an ar
rangemeit to publish BRECKENRIDGE
paper, to be called the Exposition, which,
possibly for want of funds, was never. pub
lished. WARDwELL thinks HUNNICUTT a
great rascal. WARDwELL is right. Had
the Confederacy succeeded, HUNNICUT1
would now have been an orthodox expo
sitor,"

The South and Congress.

The oppressive reconstruction measures
of the last Congress were the result Of!
passion and precipitation. The extreme
Radicals were aided by the more cOnser-
vative Republicans under the impulse Of
excitement which grew ont Of the war
with the Executive, strengthened by the
system Of falSehood and fraud to miSrepre-
sent the conduct and dispositions Of the
southern people.
Measures so matured and passed cannot
be sustained when calmness and conside-
ration resume their sway. Although there
may be no immediate probability that the
reconstruction measures may be modified
or interrupted from Washington, we have
no doubt that the moment question is
raised in Congress by the action Of State
touching the matter Of reconstruction we
shall see a state Of feeling in that body
very different from that which prevailed
there last winter. There has been one
division in Congress which no doubt has
created permanent reduction OF the
overwhelming force that sustained recon-
struction. There are other questions to
be brought up this winter which will tend
to divisions still further weakening the
party of oppression and tyranny. The
Presidential question. which will be vital
in the present session, will beyond doubt
occasion new array of forces.
These matters operate not only as di-
version from the business Of prosecuting
the South, but will in time break down
the persecution and put an end to the
prosecution Of her people. In the mean
time the white people of the South should
never rest from the discharge of their du-
ties to the State in endeavoring to save it
from the misrule of ignorance and dis
honesty. They viii thus have stronger
claim to the aid of the Congress (under it's
better Influences and the white people of
the nation to deliver them from ruin and
barbariSm. Virginia, if her sons are true,
can save herself; and in that stage of the
restoration to equality of the States which
may bring her again before Congress she
will more than likely command degree of
consideration and respect for her rights
not accorded TO her since the war, The
Welfare Of the nation demands that the
present order of proceedings shall not
continue, and this Congress will ere long
acknowledge.

Fenian Sympa thies in Great Britain

Feuian Sympa thies in Great Britain.
The executions Of FenianS in Lon
don and Dublin have called forth demon
STATIONS of popular sympathy which, for
their immense numbers and the earnest
ness and order that prevailed, may be re-
garded as amongst the most imposing
arrays of their kind that have ever taken
place. In London funeral procession
was gotten up on Sunday the Oath of No
yember for the three Fenians who were
hung and buried the day before. In this
PROCESSION there was an immense con-
course of citizens, Fenians, and Chartists.
Speeches were made in Clerkenwell
green, and there the procession was
formed. The speakers were for an Or
derby exhibition Of sympathy, but deemed
it due to the nation and the cause of hu-
man rights that such demonstration
should take place for if, said one, I" Irish
"men could be executed on the evidence
{" of the perjured witnesses who had been
"suborned at Manchester, Englishmen
"might expect that the political scaffold
"would soon be erected for friends OF
"freedom here, and that Mr.. ERNEST
" JONES (Chartist), or some other cham
"pion Of the peoples rights, would be
4" chosen as the victim"
Speeches of remarkable pith and point
were made after which the procession was
formed, and marched through some Of the
principal streets of London. Some 1000
people joined it. A large black banner
was borne in front, with the inscription:
"Man's inhumanity to man.
Makes countless thousands mourn"
The movement Of the procession was
solemn and funereal-the band playing the
"Adeste Fideles F." Of the Catholic Church
and the "dead march in SAUL" The pro-
cession, after passing through the principal
streets, entered Trafalgar Square, where
the "de profundis" was recited and q
prayer offered up. The multitude, con-
sisting of many thousands, then dispersed.
On Sunday the 9Th instant the obsequies
of the executed Fenians were conducted
with great manifestations Of sympathy in
Dublin. They were similar to those in
London, Manchester, and Cork; but in
numbers exceeded them all. 1t is said
that $4,000 people joined the procession;
which was conducted with perfect order.
The orderly character of these process
sions perhaps occasions much more anx-
iety in the British mind than turbulent
and violent demonstration would have
done. There is a widespread discomfort
and feverishness in the British mind that
must be met with the most consummate
Judgment and prudence, or England will
have much trouble ere long. The present
dynasty has no certain guarantee against
disturbance, and may yet share the fate of
some of the most powerful monarchies in
the world.

Eunn;cutt,s Rand.

The pious HUNN1CuTT is endeavoring
to bring the Convention to the support
Of negroes who have lost their situations
upon the ground that their political opin-
ions don't suit their employers. Promising
that every employer is master of the stu
alton " on his own premises, this PROPOSE
ton opens the way to fraud and imposi-
ton of the grosseSt kind. Every lazy
rascal who won't work, and wants rations,
would say that he was discharged for his
opinions, and would demand that he should
be allowed to fasten himself like leech,
upon the public treasury. A commissary
department Of the hugest dimensions
would be necessary to maintain such good
for-nothing wretches. An army of them
would be soon quartered upon the State,
who would do nothing but eat, and riot, and
read the Ne,o Nation. We may easily see
to what g length assimilation and fraud
would be carried. Had all the negroes
who promised to vote the Conservative
ticket at the late election in this city, or
who said they had so voted, fulfilled their
| promise or told the truth, there would
have been at least five hundred negro Con-
sentative votes. Whereas there were only
t,oenty t,oo, Thus would the number
really discharged by their employers for
voting for the wretches who were elected
from this city be magnifed by the lying
| blacks.
But the absurdity of attempting to foist
any such provision for lazy and good-for-
nothing negroes upon the State is too ap-
parent to be debateds Thousands Of white
men at the North have been turned away
from employment for their political OPT
mons; but was there ever even sug-
gestion that they ought to be sustained by
the State Never. Why should negro
any more deserve support in such case
y than white MANI Every man has right
ITO discharge laborer or any sort of en-
| ploye for any reason to himself satisfac-
| tory, or for no reason at all, and to ques-
ton that right and say that the discharged
must be supported out of the public trea-
sury would be to unsettle the whole
ground work Of social industry and plunge
the country into anarchy and ruin. Such
a scheme should be Indignantly secuted
by even the negroes. If they accept it
they will but add another reason to many
others now meditated upon by the world
that they are not even fit to take care Of
themselves, much less to manage the affairs
of the State.
HUNE1CUTT, in his paper Of yesterday,
makes statement which shows that the
negroes are wiser and more manly than he
shows himself to be in proposing foray
upon the treasury for their support. He
says that number Of the discharged
| 0heir number is greatly exaggerated)
have held meeting, at which it was
determined to establish a mandatory
Of tobacco on the principle of aSso-
citation, the laborers being the stock
holders. This is creditable and courage
Gus, and shows the negroes superior
to HUNNICUTT, with his canting hypo-
crisy and scheming, intended to maintain
his popularity with his deluded followers
and aggravate their ill-feeling toward white
