SENsIBLE.-Our brilliant newspa.
per friend, Sam. b. Evens, of the OF.
tumwa Qowa) Democrat, thus
prodsup Mr. Underwood, the athe.
lst who recently debated with Prof.
Campbell at Eugene: An Atheistical
lecturer was here last week endeav-
oring to pile up the distresses of poor
suffering humanity, to a greater de-
gree, by urging them to doubt the inn
mortality of the soul. Now, if there
be one more unthankful and ungra-
cious task than another, it is in try
ing to induce people TO believe that
their woes are greater than they seem.
The question Of Immortality will al
ways be controverted one, and the
best Of us will sometimes have doubts
in regard to the matter, but why
should these missionaries be sent
around to increase our dependency
or awaken our fears. God knows, we
have enough to bear in this world
without adding to them the dismal
prospect of annihilation after DEATH
If Immortality be true, it is a blessed
thing that we believe In the truth; =
and, though it should prove false, it is
q pleasing fiction in which to indulge
and can do us no harm. On the
whole, we think Mr.. Underwood
might be engaged in better business,
