PR1YERS IN DRESDEN.

IL isa mOurniul fact that the modern BrtOn,
with a decided propensity to go everywhere,
should make social trouble wherever he goes.
1t seems to us that no is not, at least as TO his
head, so much bovine as porcine in his nature;
and the curiosity of it ia, although no is orc of
the Most religious animals in existence, that he
frequently manages 20 miss all the humility of
Christian doctrine and all the courtesy of
Christian good will. If there is place in the
world in which a man should DO civil and
courteous and charitable, and should sternly
keep his angry passions from rising, that place
is q church; for to carry there personal pride
and national notions is to travesty the most
familiar admOnitions of the Holy Scriptures,
and to change the humiliations and confessions
of the service into farce, which can only
escape the imputation OF blasphemy through
the plea Of piOus intention. Get ont of my
"way," old Bishop COrbet used to cry, when
the crowd about the altar became too great
"get out of my way, or III confirm you with
"my crozicrw Something like this we hear of
in Dresden There is in that city, for the bene-
fit of tourists and foreign residents, an Epsco-
pal church, in which twothirds of the worship
ers are Americans, who pay their proportion
PRAYER for the President and others i'm author
ity here at home included in the service. The
Obliging incumbent accedes to this request,
and almost throws piOus English gentleman
into commissions Of surprise and Indignation,
Shocked out of all decency of behavior
he thumps the floor of his pew with a
cane, and exclaims, by no means in
whisper 81 thought this was an English
church, We will do him the justice to say
that he could not possibly have known how
much the present President Of the United
States needs praying for. With sufficient
knowledge Of the facts, he could hardly have
had the heart to object 90 an entire service in
behalf OF that unfortunate individual. How
ever rather than hear tho President prayed
for, the British cOnfessors of the congregation
took their departure for another temple. For
n while the prayer was continued; but, tho
British element once more predominating in
the church, we now learn, TO our great grief
that the obnoxious prayer has been abandoned
and they only pray in that divine edillco for
the Queen of England and the King of
Saxony! The ecclesiastical views of the noble
Briton with the cane have prcdominated.
"An American who writes TO The London
Times concerning these wonderful events is
good enough TO give us one Of the reasons
which have been assigned against the intro
duction of the prayer for the President lie
is nominated" say tho Bulls, revery four
years. and we do not desire to pray for such
a number of nobodesw To this it may bo

Mr.. Reverdy JOlmsOn's last speech to the
Freedmens Aid Union will surprise those OF the
American people who are familiar with his life
long labOrs in defense of and apology for the
institution of Slavery We now for the first
time learn that Mr.. Johnson has distinguished
himself in advocating the claims of those who
were asserting their freedom that Slavery has
at all times been q social, industrial, and polt-
zeal evil that its abolition was not an uncon-
stitutional usurpaton, but that God IN his
providence so directed the blow that what
"was designed to continue it ended in its de-
" structiOn.r lie expresses his belief that the
blacks are as capable of receiving education
Z" as the whites and assures the abOlitionists
of the Freedmen's Aid Union that upon the
"great subject which has interested them he
feels precisely as they do" 1t would have
been gratifying if this leader Of the pro-
Slavery party and apologist of the Rebellion
had attained to and avOwed such pretty sentl-
ments when they were needed. But we can
not wonder that one over whom so great a
change has come should avow himself happy
" from the first, getting happier every day, and
"never mere happy than now Seventeen
thousand five hundred dollars year in gold,
besides outfit and secretaries. with nothing to
do hut talk buncombe, sawder, and blamey,
agrees hugely with Reyerdy Johnson.
