CHRISTIAN DIFFERENCES.

Nearly every mail that arrives from
Europe, brings some instance of dis
seusious among the clergy of England;
i Is either Il quarrel between the
High Churchman and the Low. or
against the latter and the Board-in
fact it seems to be nothing else from
month to month. and from year to
wear, but religious prosecutions.
These chickering's are between men
who are in different stages in II de
velopment of opinion. each marked by
the rejection or reception OF some
modifying truth, and each forming
the halling place of a different sect or
school. Nor is there any evil in this
variety. 50 long as the truths of mo-
rality and religion are not c~ontradicted,
consequently dissension has one
bright spot. for Christianity embraced
under one form might have been re
iected under another-all cannot see
through the same telescope. but dit
ferent eve, require the tube TO be
v~ariousIy adjusted. But is there
then, it NAV be asked, no evil in the
spirit of party? To this we answer, the
mischief is not Ia variety of opinion,
but in variance of heart not in theo
logical idioSvncrasies, but IN unscru-
pulous par sisan>hip. While civil dis
cord thus ~convulses the Church in
that fair country, many of her children
are falling away from her, II aban
doninc the distinctive doctrines of
Christianity. These unnatural hostil-
tiles. however, must cease, if England
IS ever to re convert the Pagans of the
factory. and the Pantheists of the
forum. How, indeed, can they hope
to move them, if they are unable to
answer the most obvious retort of the
unbeiiaycr. II will hearken when
o Christians can agree Surely
these differences should be banished
and a new batCle waged-a battle not
between AnglicanS and C~alvinists. nor
even between Roman Catholicism and
Professionalism. hut between Faith and
Atheism. We believe that the end Is
sure. and hat Truth will conquer.
But who can say how many ages of
defeat may precede that final victory?

The San Francisco Examiner of the
18th inst, says:
A case was commenced in the
Fourth District Court yesterday that
illustrates the high rates of interest
paid in early times. 1t is the suit of
John w. Geary, formerly Aicaide of
San Francisco, now Governor of Penn
~sylvania, to recover nearly a million
OF dollars from the estates of Simmons,
Hutchinson Il Co. The amount loaned
on llth August, 1850. was 5000, hear
ing interest at five per cent. per mouth.
The firm failed in September, 1850, but
Geary after getting judgment could
lind no property. He now brings suit
against the a~ssignees OF the firm to en-
join them from making any convey
ances of property OF the firm they still
retain. At compound interest, which
was generally the rule in early times.
this o would have nearly equaled
our national debt"

Another Convention and n New
Demand, AL

CINCINNATI, MaS In accordance
with the published call, the French
speaking delegates to the Liberal Con-
vention, from all the States, held NEE
ting this morning at College Hall. Af.
ter organization had been effected, the
following resolutions were presented
and adopted:
WHEREAS, The French speaking pop
ulation of the United States are con,
vinced that the time has come when all
liberal progressive citizens should unite
without regard to past political opin-
ions; and whereas. they, as American
citizens, always felt some delicacy in
participating in the great political move
menis of the country, but that they are
now convinced that the spirit as now
practiced by the existing political sr-
CARNATIONS requires all good citizens to
organize themselves in order to enable
them to aid in establishing fraternal
feeling, which is absolutely necessary
for the common welfare of all parts OF
the county; therefore be it
Resolued, That is the sense of all the
French speaking delegates assembled
at the Cincinnati Convention that they
shall give expression to the practicable
principles which will enhance the inter.
ests Of American citizens either native
or foreign born, who have their coun.
try's good at heart, and to have said
principles incorporated in the platform
to he adopted by the Cincinnati Con
vention.
Resolred, That deeming it necessary
for the good Of the country to erase all
political hatred between its different
sections, we will support the nomina
ton of candidate to the Presidency o.
the United States of America d North
ern man not>only known by his works
and writings, but also by his deeds, as
good statesman and staunch Union
man, in favor of general amnesty, thu
full equality Of all citizens, and opposed
to the military encroachments NANTES
ted by the present administration. Fol
the Vice Presidency a Southern maj
having equal qualifications; thus pre-
serving the laws and the lights of eacl
and every State of the Union establish
ed by the combined efforts of Wash
ington and Lafayette.
Resolred, That in order to carry th,
above resolution into effect the com
mittees shall form in all the respectiv,
States in the Union to organize the 800
600 voters of the French speaking pop
ulation.

The Suicide Of seiey Okey.

Our citizens were considerably startled
Oh Sunday morning last by the intclli
gence that SELEY OKEY, youth Of lif-
teen or sixteen years of age, son of Mr..
WooDMAN OKEY, who resides one half
mile west Of town, had committed suicide
by hanging himself in astable near the
house.
The boy had taken q rope used for a
halter, from one of the stalls, assembled to
the loft, made it fast to one rafter and
then across to another where he tied it
securely Before the moose was made in
the rope the end was certainly not more
than two feet from the floor Of the loft.
When discovered by his little brother, Al
FRED, his knees were resting upon the
floor, the body upright and life extinct
DR.. DILLON was Immediately sent for
and, assisted by Dr. WALTON, did every
thing within their power to restore the
vital spark, but in vain. The body was
removed to the house and again efforts
were made to restore life with no better
success.
Neither his parents nor the other men,
bers of the family can assign any cause
for the son committing the deed. He ap-
peared as well and cheerful that morning
as usual; quite number of persons are
of the opinion that he was merely exper-
imenting to ascertain what the sensations
produced by strangulation were, and
when strangulation commenced: was un-
able to help himself.

WASHINGTON, April 2s.-Major Nor
rill, commanding in South Carolina, in
his telegraphic dispatch to the Depart
mcnt of Justice, recently, stated that a
man named Minor Paris, indicted for a
Ku Klux murder, was shot and killed by
troops acting as posse to the United
States Marshal while escaping the efforts
of the Marshal to arrest him ON bench
warrant of the Circuit Court. Accor'
ding to the detailed information, Minor
Paris, who was everywhere regarded as
quiet, inoffensive man, was fishing in
the river when he was killed by the sol
diers. In the position in which he is
said to have been, he could not have
heard summons to surrender if tha
summons were given. There is reason
for believing that Paris did not know
that it was desired to arrest him, or tina
he made an attempt to escape. Indeed
it is denied that any bench warrant hac
been issued. These statements receiv
ed here give to the killing the appear
ance Of cold blooded murder.
