is the leading organ Of the Union
movement, and opposes with all its
might and main, ritualism, close CON-
munion, exclusiveness and church
caste. 1t is the only paper that pub
fishes Henry Ward Beecher's sermons,
which it does every week, just as they
are delivered, without qualification or
correction by him. 1t advocates uni
versal suffrage; union of christians
at the polls, and the rights of labor.
1t claims to have the best agricultural
department of any paper in the world,
publishes stories for the family, and
for the destruction of social evils
Its editorial management is imperson-
al; its writer's and editors are from
every branch of the church, and from
every grade of society. 1t has been
aptly termed the freest organ of tho't
in the world. Its articles are we'll
written and bear the impress of firm,
honest conviction. 1t offers the most
munifcent premiums in sewing mach
ines, dictionaries, pianos, organs for
churches, &C., for canvassers, and 10
this regard distances all competitors.
