gate from the Third Congressional Dis
trict to the Union Republican National
Convention, at Baltimore. in 1864 He
held at various times many important
offices Of trust in his own town and
community, but his natural timiditv and
retiring disposition kept him aloof from
the more prominent positions of politi-

executed with fidelity whatever business
was committed to his hands and was
very often the adviser of both parties in
a controversy securing the settlement
of their issues on a basis Of compromise
and neighbIrly accommodation without
recourse to embittering law suits. Thus
in his later years he became. hv common

putes that arose among neighbors in the
community. And in this way he con-
tributed materially to their benefit and
to the peace and welfare of society, as
well as to his own good name as a
wise lawyer and worthy citizen. FIRE

A Bold Attack ora the ministers.

Mr.. 7. Sayoie, who adds to his name
the title of missionary Priest and
makes Bakersfield Vt, his center of
operations, has recently attacked the
Protestant ministers in a shameful man
ner. Writing articles on the Family in
L'1Uenlr NdttOn0te a paper published
at st. Adams, he was naturally led to
speak of divorce, and took occasion to
attack, not only Henry VIII for whose
immOralities no one wishes to apologize.
but also Luther, Melancthon, Cramner
etc. Then, to vent out fully his bitter
feelings against the ministers of the
present day, he proceeds in the follow
ing terms
DO we not see to-day the Protestant
ministers OF almost every sect approving
divorce, rejecting marriage as a sacra-
mcnt, uniting without any previous in
formation all who apply to them, and
following themselves the beautiful ex-
amples given by their first patrons and
greatest saints, namely Luther Henry
VIII, Cranmer, Elizabeth, etc. etc. :
Yes We are obliged to acknowledge the
existence of these evils we see too
clearly their fruits in the multiplicity of
infanticidcs, domestic quarrels and the
instability of society i'll general.
Now, this sweeping charge must
either be sustained by facts or the writer
thereof will pass for missionary of
Islander. SO says DECEwCY.
