6Lef Us Have Peace. f"

THE DUTY or THE CHURCH AND CHRIS
TIANs IN THE IMPENDING POLITICAs
CRISIS.
Rev. DIR. OTIS, of the West Presbyterian
Church, last night preached i'll relation
to the present political crisis, taking fo'
his text, .sBlcssed are the Peacemakers,
for they shall be called the children OF
God" Matthew, 9th chap, 9th verse.
In his remarks the Reverend gentlelnM
took the ground:-
That there is pending q grave crisis ~
the political history of this nation. TEat
free government, by the people, is the
palladium of our national existence, and
the foundation of our REPUBLIC when 1t
fails the Republic falls to the ground
That the whole country is now shaken to
its centre by the question as to whether
in the recent political election, there had
been free vote and fair count.
This question, in its peculiar relation to
the people, is one which should be con
sidered by the church. This is Chris
tian nation, and Christian people should
ever stand forth in tho interest of peace.
The church and her ministers should
stand out boldly as peacemakers, AND
counsel patience, fOrbearance and endu-
rance in this grave crisis. Peace is tho
essence of Chrfst's teaching, and it is the
duty of all of US to be theipromotelS aad
conseryators of peace.
| cars nave paSSeu sluCc tiic CiosC VI oho
war for the preservation OF our glorious
Union, and yet thorough reconciliation
has not yet been effected in the seeding
states Eight years have passed since the
present ruler of our nation gave utter
ance to tho famous expression, "Let us
have peace" and yet we are no nearef
peace now than then. But We must have
lpeace. The people demand it, They VIII
rise above party in this crisis and demand
that the wisdom and statesmanship OF the
country be directed to the peaceful settle
ment of the political difficulties. There
will be no war, my friends, in the settle"
ment of this question. Whichever party
may rise or fall, the people will abide b.
the result, and our glorious country
which has just closed the first century o.
its national existence, will continue TO
live and prosper as the foremost nation
of the world.
Therefore as this question should pt
settled in peaceful manner, now is tne
: time for peacemakers to come forward
,, and the Church, as in all times of trouble
should now prove the great paciticator oil
the nation, and diffuse the gospel OF peace
among all the people.
In his prayers, DIR. Otis fcrvently al,
,, luded to our President and our rulers and
at the conclusion of the services dismissed
The audience with an appropriate oene.

before they were fred upon by party of

by six musket balls. Baker was severely
wounded by small shot, but escaped with
his life. The negroes belonged to one of
the State militia companies, and were
armed with the rifles belonging to the
State. The murder took place on pub
lie street in Lowndesville, in front of the
Presbyterian church.
The reports of the rifles attracted sew
