We copy in another part of this paper a
beautiful and affecting tribute which Gen. n, F.
BANKS paid TO the late JouS A. R,wLISs, in his
excellent oration recently delivered at Boston
before the Society of the Army and Navy of the
Gulf In few pregnant sentences he does justice
to the noble character and enlarged intellect of
RwLIYs, as well as to that great heart and that
irrepressbe love Of human freedom which in.
spired him 70 the very close Of his life, In
deed, as Gen. BANKS says, he reused himself in
his last moments from the apparent unconscious
ness Of dissolution to exclaim to those surround
ing him, "Cuba must be free" Truer words
were never uttered, nor is there recorded any
where Il prophecy more certain of tulflment.
But how sad the reelection that many of those
who formerly were among the most ardent cham
pions Of American liberty, have now turned their
backs upon Cuba and willingly see her con.
signed to Spanish chains, an3 70 the extreme tor.

An esteemed correspondent from Minnc

An esteemed correspondent from Mime
Gotta informs Ut that the reports winch have been
put in circulation that the crops of the West have
failed arc utterly untrue. In Minnesota the yield
Of wheat in 1869 was fily.two million bushels,
while this year it will be fully sixty-Gve millions.
The same Is true Of Wisconsin and Michigan.
The quantity in those States is fully up to the
average, while the quality is above it. Iowa and
Kansas will also largely surpass their usual yield ;
and the only region where there seems to be anv
considerable falling of is in some parts of ILL.
nois where severe drought has prevailed
Upon the whole, however there can be no ques-
on that the wheat crop in this country is largely
in excess Of that of ordinary years so that if
there should be any considerable demahd for this
great staple in Europe, we shall be abundantly
able to supply it.

say that as clothing and houses were in.
vented 10 satisfy the necessities Of shelter,
language 10 communicate thought, and the
arts and sciences 10 minister 10 mems physi
cal wants, 80 religions grow up by the exer-
else Of the human intellect on the facts of
nature and its own experience The sources
of rel & ions being in every case Of similar
character, the religions themselves, we are
told were necessarily formed with an equal
similarity or, where they vary, it is because
of the variety in the minds which gave birth
to them. Thus, both the excellences and the
defects of every form of religion are accounted
for by reference TO the constitution OF man
alone, and lie supposed agency in con
structing his belief for himself.
But to argue that because all religious
resemble each other therefore the truth
which they in common cmbody is of human
and not of divine origin--is merely natural
and not supcrnatural-is altogether falla-
cious. II is much more reasonable TO believe
that this resemblance is the rcfult of an
effort constantly making by the Divine Be-
ing to impart to his children true ideas con-
corning himself and their own spiritual ma
turc and that the superstitions and falsi-
ties relating 10 these subjects, which are 30
generally met with among men, are alone
the product Of human agency. For no one
doubts that 1t may be nbsractly possible to
conceive Of o religion which shall be alb
solutely true but in our actual ex.
periencc, tho dullncss and tho perver.
sty of human nature prevent the
realization Of this ideal. There have
been from time immcmor1 not only
various forms of belief. but numerous sects
Of believers Of the same general doctrine.
This diversity has been likened TO the rays
Of the sun shining on a stained glass win.
dow IL comes pure and white from the sun,
but after it has passed through the window
IT takes on the hues of the pieces of glass Of
which 1t iscomposed. So, divine truth, which
is one and indivisible in itself, is broken and
distorted by the human mediums who receive
and transmit IL.
The practical value Of this acknowlcdg.
ment Of the one divine source Of what
is true in all religions is that ii
teaches at once fidelity to the truth and
tolerance OF honest error. Only a bigot will
contend that no alone is right in his reli-
gious opinions, and only fool will, out Of
opposition to bigotry, believe nothing. We
are all bound to exercise our understanding
in adopting religion, and our perseverance
in adhering to our convictions in regard &c
II afterwOrd; and we shall do this the better
the more thoroughly we are persuaded that
the inmost principles Of our religion are not
of human invention, but come from above.
