RELIGION AND POLITICS.

Here is an extract from Judge A
Negroes View of the Race Problem"
at the last Mohonk conference 1t
will bear rea ding and thinking about:
II confess, l have never been able
to distinguish between them. With
out religion, politics is simply the
hot-bed of iniquity, the stamping
ground of devilish impulse; and,
without politics, religion is as dead
as faith without works. When
Christianity quits the field of political
relation, or politics discards the
tenets of Christian philosophy,
have little use for either.
l have sometimes thought that the
Christ l worship is not the Christ
upon Him as merely a weak, tender,
plying nature, who stood beside the
seething tide of human life and tear
fully dropped anasthetics on its
woes. My Christ is He Of the knot
ted whipcords, who pitied human
wofulness less than He hated the evil
conditions from which it springs.
To my mind, the Christ was not
more a saviour than a politician
studying first the facts of human life,
tracing the causes of evil, imposing
on every one the duty of considering
the welfare OF others, and making
DO unto others as We would that
they should do to you,' the golden
key by which alone the gate of
heaven may be unlocked l do not
believe that this Divine Thinker, on
whose heart the burden of human
anguish forever rested, meant mere
sympathy when He asked the weary
to come unto Him because his yoke
was easy, and shouted down the CEN
turtles the universal and memorable
command, Bear We one another's
burdens He meant not pity, but
healing-the amelioration of human
made that the sole
lesson of human duty, the universal
principle on which collective as well
as individual conduct is rightly
based, the truest policy, the grandest
selhshness, whereby the highest hap
piness is made to depend on indi-
vidual effort to uplift humanity.
This, to my mind, is Christianity, the
kernel of civilization, the handspring
of popular government, the only
practical politics-no more to be
fully achieved by US than the purity
of the Christ-like, yet ever to be
striven for as the one pearl of price
in the worlds social philosophy. So
far as l am concerned, therefore, re-
ligion and politics cannot be separat-

Outside Expert Comment on the White
River Junction Fair.
In its report of the Vermont state
fair the New England Farmer had
this to say of the change of base to
White River Junction:
For several years the Vermont
state agricultural society has held its
Champlain Valley association at
Howard Park, Burlington. While
excellent exhibitions have been held,
it has been thought by many MEM
bers and friends of the state society
that it was not just right to continue
to hold its fairs on the west side of
the state, and more than year ago
efforts were made to find a suitable
place for holding the state fair on the
east side. These efforts were heartily
seconded by the efficient president of
the state society, Col. George w.
Hooker of Brattleboro. White River
Junction was finally selected as the
best place for a fair-hrstly because
of its unequaled railroad facilities,
secondly because of ample grounds
lIdl Souiu DC Hlleu up ioI d IdTSe eA-
hibition, and last but not least be-
cause of the push and enterprise of
its citizens. AS result the Con-
necticut River Valley fair association
was formed and a large amount of
money was raised for fitting up the
grounds, new buildings, etc. This
was supplemented by a generous APP
preparation from the state society

The Adjutant and Inspector General
The report of Adjutant and In
spector General T. S. Peck covers
thoroughly the work of the state
militia through the year. The two
separate companies have been at
tached to the First regiment, which
now has the three-battalion forma-
ton recommended by the secretary
of war. The new light battery equip
ment is spoken of in the highest
terms. The work on the new roster
of Vermont troops in the war of the
rebellion is we'll under way. The re-
ports of Brig. Gen. William L. Green
leaf, commanding the First Brigade,
V. n. G., are included in the report,
as well as those of other command
ing and inspecting officers.

companies are now uniformed in the
regulation blue, three still having
the grey He notes this fact: 'Now
that the state is in a situation to
draw their credit from the United
States war department, it will be a
great help to our national guard and
help to decrease the expense of the
militia" The current expenses for the
two years (less one month"; ending
June 80, 1860, were $17,O97.41.
