Divine Protection.

We have here the moral sublime. Lu-
ther was one of the grandest of men. He
ranks among the first and foremost of
moral heroes, with Daniel of Old Testa-
ment times and with Paul of New Testa-
ment times. He was pre-eminently a
man of faith. His courage has seldom
been equalled; he feared neither men
nor devils. To the messenger sent to
warn him not to proceed to Worms at the
time of his summons there, he nobly re-
piled, go tell your master, that though
there should be as many devils at Worms
as there be tiles on its roofs, would en-
ter it" AT another critical point in his
history, on being asked, when all for
sake you, where will you take refuge ?"
smiling and looking upwards with the
eye of faith, his calm reply was, "Sub
celo" (under heaven) His favorite
Psalm was the 10th, commencing with
the words, God is our refuge and
strength, very present help in trouble"
He firmly believed in God Almighty,
ever present. and faithful; and, staying
his mind on him, he was kept in perfect
peace He feared not in the midst of all
commotions and perils. Though the
earth should be removed and the noun
tains be carried into the midst of the sea,
though the waters thereof should roar
ana De LrOuDleQ ana the noun CalnS snake
with the swelling thereof, he was calm
and undisturbed. He felt assured that
the Lord of hosts was with him and that
the God of Jacob was his refuge Above
all the tumult his voice might be heard,
singing with an unruff1ed composure:
"Lord may the troubled ocean roar;
In sacred peace our souls abide;
While every nation, every shore,
Trembles, and breads the swelling tide"
Under the protection Of the Almighty
there is perfect security. No harm can
befall US there. Not a sparrow can fall
to the ground without him. Sub cello the
humble believer abides in strong pavil-
ion. The name of the Lord is strong
tower the righteous runneth into it, and
is safe" The angels of God have his
people in special charge, to keep them in
all their ways. The exceeding great and
precious promises of his Word are theirs
Relying upon them, they stand upon a
firm foundation and well may they be
calm and courageous. HE that dwell
leth in the secret place of the Most High
shall abide under the shadow of the AL
mighty" And thus assured, well may
he take heart and respond: II will say
of the Lord, He is my refuge and my
fortress, my God; in Him will trust"

Rebel Threats.

1t is high time for the South to say to
these fellows (the Yankees): "Thus far
and no further" We must unity and
solidify against their aggressions. We
must spit upon and trample under foot
everything that bears the Puritan brand
and flavor, and if they put this latest
Yankee notion in the form of law (re-
ferring to the plank in the platform of
the recent New Hampshire Republican
convention, providing for compulsory ed
ucation), we must stand prepared to null
lify it in any and every way.
"a Soldier" in the Allegan (Mich.)
Journal, desires to know if the late Macon
letter of ex-President Davis is "a fair ex
preston of the feeling and sentiment of
the Southern people at this time" 1t is.
When we have obtained the upper
hand we propose to undo what has been
done by the Radicals since 1861, as far as
lies in our power. We propose to tear
the negro amendments out of the Con-
stitution. We propose to restore the
Planter Republic of our fathers in all its
purity and simplicity.

THE OBSERVANCE OF SUNDAY.
Rev. DR.. Potter Arguing that the For
eign Population Have No Right to
Secularize the Day.

Grace Church was crowded yesterday
afternoon, the fact that Rev. DR.. Potter
would discuss the latest aspects of the
Sunday question having been announced
in advance. The reverend gentleman
took for his text the words of st. Paul in
his epistle to the Romans, (xiv: 6, among
whom the question of observing the first
day of the week, or the seventh, accord
ing to Jewish custom, had already become
an agtating issue. After going over the
whole ground carefully, Paul sums up as
follows: He that regardeth not the day.
unto the Lord he doth not regard it"
After detailing the circumstances under
which these words we're written, and the
controversy they were intended to settle,
DIR. Potter observed that Paul had al
ready abandoned the observance of the
Jewish Sabbath and adopted the first day
of the week as holy day. But he ex-
horts those who have been converted
from paganism IL Rome, and therefore
prefer the first day of the week, not to
force upon converts from Hebraism the
necessity Of conforming to the new
usage. Having disposed of the exegetic-
al questions raised by commentators of
different denominations respecting the
real pozition Of ST. Paul concerning the
observance of Sunday, DR.. Potter passed
directly to the discussion Of the Sunday
question IN this country. America is,
he said, an Anglo Saxon country, speak
ing the English language, holding Eng
lish traditions, taking its traditional OBJ
servance of Sunday from English ances-
tors. Our laws, our institutions, our
habits of thought are inherited directly
from English ancestry. The institutions
and the traditions, the laws, and social
and religious observances which they
LETT to their posterity were political and
social factors which they had sealed with
their blood He did not and would not
underestimate the value of the Irish,
German, and other immigrants to this
c:'un'ry; hut the foreign elements re-
c,.lved on these shofes should remember
that they are our shores, not theirs, and

The Sentiments of Every Southern Patri.
ot

Southrons, watch We did not know
the extreme warlike sentiment of our
memorial poem last week was absolutely
necessary for the safety of our people,
but we believe it now. A united North is
bowling Revolution p "Treasonable Con-
spiracyF' "Damnable Rebels !" &c, and
say that before Hayes shall have to re-
linquish the Presidency they will deluge
the South with blood fiercer than before.
Be watchful, therefore, and prepared
Let the solid South meet the united
North with bold, undaunted courage,
for we are just as confident as we are that
we edit this paper that a division OF
States will be attempted again in the fu-
ture, just as sure as it was in 1861, when
the tocsin of war first sounded at Fort
Sumter. The North is too tyrannical, too
aggressive, too jealous, too vindictive, too
suspicious the South too lofty, too
naughty too ambitious, and too proud.
A union of States is and always will be

ST. LOUIS, Oct. ga dispatch from Muk-
cogee says the JOINT Indian commission of
congress, appointed TO investigate the ques-
ton of transferring the control of the Indi-
ans to the war department, reached there
this afternoon. They were received at the
depot by delegation Of Indians, represent
ing the leading tribes, and escorted to the
fair grounds, where the annual fair of these
tribes is being held. After inspecting the
display of agricultural and mechanical pre-
ducts, the committee were invited TO
the main stand, where addresses
were made by several Indians
and by members of the committee. Senator
Saunders said so far as the five tribes repre-
sented here were concerned the committee
had but little to do. They had already ad-
vanced in all the habits of civilization, and
were abundantly able to take care of them
selves, and would be benefited by the ad-
vance of the tide of civilization. Senator
McCreery, OF Kentucky, followed, and said
the Indians must accept the inevitable, and
abandoning the habits of savage life, labor
and develop the country like their white
brothers. The change must soon come and
Indians must at once get ready for the bless
iDgs and benefits of the new development
General Hooker, of Mississippi, and Judge
Boon, OF Kentucky, followed in interesting
speeches. All the members of the commit
tee expressed surprise at the fine display OF
products of the Indian territory exhibited
The party go south in the morning, and will
consult with the Indians south of here. All
the indications now point to a satisfactory
settlement of the question of opening the
territory.
