Letter from Hon. Alexander H. H.
stuart.

Letter from Hon. Alexander II. H.
stuart.
In recent letter, Hon. Alexander II.
II. Stuart says he feels satisfied that it
is the true policy of the people OF Vir-
ginia to strike out the test oath and dis
rranchising clauses, and then TO vote
for the adoption of the residue OF the
constitution. He Gays:
II we strike out the restrictive fea-
lures, and then udOnt the residue OF the
instrument, while we do not gain all
we want, we at least place the political
power Of tho State in the hands of the
better classes of the people of Virginia.
We snatch it from the hands of the car
net bagRers and their allies, and we
withdraw il from the control OF u radi-
cal Congress. We will entItle our.
selves TO u restoration OF our rights in
the Union, and to the withdrawal of
military supervision and control over
it. We can elect officers and enact
laws of our own, and within year or
two, after the excitement Incident to
these political struggles shall have
passed away, we can call new con-
VputIOn and form new constitution
adapted to our existing condition. By
striking out the acknowledgements and
test Oaths, almost the whole BODY of
our population will be clothed with the
power TO vote and be rendered eligible
to Office The principle of popular SOW
ereigntY will be- established ON n firm
basis, aud the voice of our own citizens
will be potential in flaming our future
policy.
But it is all important Inat we should
spare no pains 10 secure good legislu-
ture and good Governor. The reasons
are too obvious TO require enumeration.
They will readily suggest themselves to
every intelligent mind. If we expect
good laws we must elect IL COED legia
laiure. If we desire aud wish au hon
est execution OF the laws we must
choose wise and honest Governor. And
while this is at all times necessary, it is
especially so now. The new Legislature
will have to enact all laws necessary 10
put the new government into operation.
The constitution is not self enforcing;
it requires legislation to give effect TO
it. The new government will be
clothed with the veto power to check
hasty aud improVident legislation.
Need say anything to show 10 the
people the necessity of making wise
selection of those who are to WELD
powers fraught with so much veal OF
woe to the state?
Very truly yours, &c,
ALEX, II. 81. STUART.

ers. They are always safe, and sure to do
you good. They are purely vegetable, and
diminish the death principle; some think
they increase the principle OF life. But in
taking out bad humors from the blood, they
do make the body lighter. and thus seem to
add energy. Many families have used them
for upwards of forty years.
They are the best medicine for Colds, for
all Bilious Affections, for Fu1lness about the
Head or Heart, and in all Cutaneous and
Contagious Diseases they are unrivalied. In
all cases where purgattvs is indicated, no
medicine yet known can be compored 10
them. Two hundred physicians have testi-
fied that Brandreth's Pills are superior to
all other purgatives whatever. Sold by all

A CORRESPONDENT who has been
studying the legal complexion OF the
Cardozo-Townsend-P eRrsall~O'Connor
case is forclbly reminded of certain
Justice of the Peace who got himself
elected Constable. He had debtor
who would not pay, and he applied to
himself for a summons which he issued
as Justice returnable before himself.
AS Justice he heard the case, rendered
judgmentIn favor OF himself. and Isl
bile, collected and paid over the judg-
ment to himself, putting the principal,
interest and costs into his own pocket.
Judge Cardozo by his crooked policy
got himself arraigned before himself,
employed counsel or friends to try him
hearings before himself, allowing no.
body to take part in the trial but him
self and counsel, and yet was compelled
to beat himself before himself.

The Irish Church Bill.

The following protest was entered in the
House Of Loras against the third reading
Of the Irish Church Bill
DiSSsatisat-l. Because this Bill, for
the first time since the foundation Of the
British Monarchy. introduces. so far as
Ireland is concerned, the principle, unre-
cognized in any other country in Europe.
of an entire severance Of the State from
the support Of any and every form OF re-
ligious worship.
?. Because the adoption Of this prinei-
pie with regard to Ireland, can not but
give great encouragement to those who
desire its extension TO every part Of the
United Kingdom.
). Because u is violent stretch OF the
power of Parliament to resume grant
made by itself in peFpetuity; still moro to
confseate property held by long prescrip-
ton, and by title independent OF Parlia-
ment.
4. Because if this principle be well
founded as regards private property, it is
still more SO with regard to that which
has been solemnly set apart for the pur-
poses of religion and the service of Al
mighty God.
5. Because the legislation attempted in
this Bill tends TO shake confidence in all
property, and especially in that which rests
upon Parliamentary title, heretofore con-
sidered as the most unassailable Of all.
o. Because it is impossible to place u
Church. diseStabliShed and diSendowed.
and bound together only by the tie Of u
voluntary association, on footing of
equality with the perfect organization Of
the Church Of Rome, whereby. especially
in Ireland, the laity are made completely
subseryient to the priesthood, the priests
to the bishops, aud the bishops themselves
are subject to the uncontrolled authority
of foreign potentate.
!. Because this Bill will be felt as
positive injustice by the Protestants Of
Ireland, who, through their Irish Parlia-
ment, surrendered their political independ-
enee by treaty, the fundamental eondi-
ton of which was the greater security of
the Protestant Establishment.
S, Because while this measure will tend
to ALLEVIATE those who have hitherto been
the hrmest supporters of the British
Throne and British connexiOn. so far from
eouciliating, much less satisfying. it will
only stimulate to fresh demands that large
portion of the Roman Catholic population
of ireland which looks forward to Interior
and very different objects, and above all.
to ultimate emancipation from the control
of the British Legislature.

\ NEW Religion" Babism" is the
name given t. a new religiOn-or rather
to modification Of an old one-which is
now radidly spreading over Eastern Asia,
and which, it is thought, may ultimately
supplant M0hammedanism itself in regions
long cursed with the doctrines of the False
Prophet. Babism is not Christianity. nor
d very sensible approach to it; but it ap-
pears to be great improvement on Mo-
hammedanism. 1t does not even claim to
be 4 perfect system of religion itself, but
rather a John-the-Baptist to a system
which is yet to be fully revealed to the
faithful. 1t teaches the Divine Unity but
not so as to exclude the Divinity of Christ,
as Mohammedanism does; for it maintains
that God may, at his will, either partially
or wholly communicate his attributes, with
out diminution of his own divinity. At
the day of judgment every thing is to be
annihilated save what is divine; and God
will then draw unto himself everything
that is from him-everythin pure and
good. To obey God, TO love him, to aspire
to him, is the duty OF man, rather than to try
to penetrate into the mysteries of his char
acter. Marriage Is a thing of the highest
Importance, as q means for establishing
family ties, now the great want of Asiatic
society. Polygamy is not absolutely for
hidden by the new religion but it is dis
eountenanced, and is but little praeticed
by the believers Coneubinage, however,
is strictly condemned and divorce, which
is the great social curse of the country, is
absolutely prohibited. The use Of the veil.
which isOlates the women Of the East from
the amenities of social life, is also prohib-
tied.
The new religion was first introduced by
a young Persian, of Shiras, about 1913

its originator assumed-that Of the Bah,

to reach the presence Of God.
At first quietly taught, the religion gain
ed friends and converts, and teachers, male
and female, until it spread far and wide,
evoked persecution from the Persian gov

which was put down with cruelty aud

Of his chief disciples persisted miserably.
