LAST Saturday afternoon the young
democracy Of Plymouth raised the finest.
old-fashioned, hickory pole we have seen
Tor many day. The democratic young
ladies' prepared beautiful flag and presea-
ted to them; and after the polc-raising a
general jubilee was INDUCED in, consist
ing Of music, speaking and firing big
guns.
The young gentlemen most active Ia
the work were Messrs. George Fleming,
Nathan Dickson, Orlando NJ. Packard and
Eugene Lewis.
This is the first pole of the campaign in
this vicinity, and the boys are entitled to
much credit for leading off in so good
work.

Political matters are waxing warm
Our neighbors Of the Grant and Ceilax
club are discussing the question whether
a man can be a christian and be a demo
crat, Some Of the speakers have said 1t
was impossible, while no one has said he
believed otherwise. Both Of our local
preachers are engaged in the interest of
God and humanity" preaching politics
for the Grant and Coifax club; and unless
appearances are teceitfuI their congrega-
tons will soon be composed only Of truly
loyal persons, who would as soon listen
to the preaching of Sambo and him cruel
fed, as to what they shall do TO be saved.
In our opinion, GA clergyman should
so paint goodness as to charm all who see
the picture, and make them resolve to be-
come really good. Vice should be SO ez-
hibited as to provoke disgust and abhor-
renee, aud induce mankind to avoid it.
Subjects OF Illustration are daily found in
the streets. Sermons that d. not SO pre-
sent virtue that We naturally love it, and
vice so Tat we instinctively detest it, al
ways fail in predicting any useful effect.
1t is implanted in the heart IF man to adj
mire what is pure and lovely, and to
loathe and detest what is the reverse and
wit this thought in mind the clergy
should present the Christian religion,
learning and all those imaginary matters
often heard which prove destructive al
10y to pure religion. Mankind do not di-
vide on what We nave said but upon Pc
i.tical and / outside questions they ever
have and ever will and upon all such as
men differ, wise teacher of The Christian
religion Will take sides with neither. II
his commission is-from God he Will find
no authority in it for his doing so. He
is employed to teach religion and not poll
lies or other irrelevant matters. Ills

truth and Importance of vital religion,

guarantees to every inhabitant the ''free

of this freedom in his ministerial capacity
the preacher must expect the results that
materially follow in the wake of such a
course. at cannot be disguised that our
country is more domoralized than at any
former period in its history. Murder, ar
son, robbery, bigamy, larceny, and every
other crime punishable under the laws,
are infinitely more common than at
any former time. Frauds have multiplied
and intemperance increased. Church es
have become divided, many are without
support, and some are unoccupled, while
vast numbers of people decline to attend
