 We are informed that there is a so-called "SanCLihed Holiness" negro preacher in town, who is doing a great deal of harm among the negroes. He is gathering around him all the vicious negroes from the overflowed country and city, and preaching doc trineS of "santitied holiness" as he calls it. Among the articles of his creed is one permitting free love, or "wallowing" as it is called, and sever- al negroes, of perhaps a better class, are lamenting the loss of their wives. The colored preachers are incensed against this fraud and if such is real ly the case, it seems to us that there is some law which would put a stop to his hellish teachings.
