All the mOuOpOlies with which
our dist essed people ar burthened
are the outgrowth of republican
rule. The republican party has
never abated a monopoly. The
democratic party has never created
one. The republican party always
muItiplies legislation. The demo-
cratic party PelsistentIy removes
bad laws from the Statute book.
We believe it is the Intention of
Brother Moody and Brother San
key, after they have flushed their
spiritual campaign in Chicago, to
lay siege TO the citadel of the devil
iD Boston. Before they enter on
that enterprise, We caution them
to lay IN a tremendous store of
spiritual ammunition and to make
arrangements for a constant sue
cession of new material for the
long conflict they will need to
wage. For if anywhere in the
country the devil is almost impreg-
rably intrenched, it is at Boston.
The Boston people think they are
good enough already-a little too
good to put up with the rest of us
and so far from wishing to get
any theological points from Bro
ther Moody, they stand ready TO
supply him with them Mt short no.
tice and in infinite variety. As to
Brother Sankey's singing, unless
he adapts his hymns to the music
of the future, Boston will paw no
attention to them, for next to
theology he9 strong point is mu-
sic. The Boston people enjoy 60
ing to church, but not to gain
spiritual edifcation. What they
are after is to sharpen their wits
at the expense of the preacher.
Brother Moody will at once see
that this is not a state of mind
which leads dstOcODyprsiODs. Instead
Of seeking truth at his hands, the
BostoniAns will undertake to put
him in the wav of finding it him
self, for they devoutly believe that
t is locked up in Boston and that
hey alone hold the key to the
strong box. Yes, Boston will be
stony ground for Brother Moody
o cast the seed of the Gospel
1pon. Let him begin by proceed
ug 10 take down the spiritual pre-
enoions of the people there, break
u2 their religious self-suficiency,
nd proving to them that they
lave no royal Boston road to
heaven. He must paint their cold,
and Hfeless spiritual state
n vivid coloIs and humble their
Intellectual arrogance without
percy. Only so can he do any
hing there. We shall watch Bro
her Moody's campaign in Boston.
