"While crowds of wretched outcasts1 are liiroiigiug the "broad road," with no mau to 'Jty them, there is a furious discussion on oth sides of the Atlantio on the mere moon shine of robes, candles, incense, and sing-song In ihe house of God. It is our opinion that an humble and earnest effort to reclaim a Magdalene or a prodigal is worth all the church tapers and genuflections in the world. .And jet we are not surprised at these discus sions. They are only abuses and exaggera tions of a just and essential principle of church Jife. Men of but little spiritual life, and per haps unconsciously affecting n-sthetio culture, deploring tho want of true power in their churches, feci that they must hold the people by- the eyes and ears. Music and pictures and dres and acting must supply the place of that which grapples with the understanding and the affections. In the Uomish communion this tendency finds a systematic development. The pomp of Judaism is repeated with the addition of a iiumber of pagan tricks. Everything is Strictly in keeping, excepting sometimes the Teoplo. The churches are generally costly; the altars dressed profusely with an array of yold and silver ware, and pictures and crucl iixes; the music aspires to equal or surpass that of the stage, frequently employing the Stage-singers; the walls are hung about with noble pictures of martyrs and saints, represented with upturned faces in the direst conjunctures of trial, or in rapt and transfiguring devotion. Most frequently, In our own country, there is only an audience to gaze upon all this con sisting of Irish or German immigrants, with the lowest possible taste in any and every thing relating to art. Indeed, ritualism and its attendant artistic displays in the Komish Communion do not seem to aim at a'Sthetio results. There is but little taste among the worshippers even in Europe. There church goers, for the most part, are the lower classes; and the intent Beems to be to furnish a rather nice puppet-show, which shall correspond with the power of the confessional and the jnagnilicent claim of priestly power and infalli bility. In proof of this view, we may note that 1'rotentant ministers who are perverted to jopery never seem to be attacked or entrapped on their aesthetic side. They always profess to find the shores of the Tiber as the result of a search for authority. Now and then, indeed some gay Lothario of an artist is caught and carried over by the spectacular display; but the cases are rather rare, and always shallow. There is, upon a slight view of the case, an incongruity between the two sides of the char acter of the Church of Rome namely, the artistic and the moral. The same institution that delights in beautiful Madonnas and good Shepherds rejoices in the dungeons of the In quisition. Art is mild, genial, tender, refin ing. How, then, should the fell spirit of per secution seat itself for the creation of beauty T How came Rome to be the patron of art f The answer, in part, is that Christian art antedates Home's cruelty. Rome was first Christian, then papal. Christianity, in its purest and lest moods, produced the early forms of art, and thus created a demand for the future. But farther than this, Rome developed in ordinately the miraculous side of Christianity. She kept open the spiritual world to the gaze Of her children; she watched for portents and ghostly wonders; and hence, in an age when only art and the priesthood were open to the ambitious, the visions of tho heated imagina tion sought expression in painting. Among the Episcopalians, the case stands somewhat otherwise. Here there is no l'ope and no.out-and-out claim to infallibility, and yet the sermon has been losing its hold upon the church people, so called, more and more. Some boast that they do not go to church to liear the sermon, but only to join in the ser vice. The clergyman is something only as he is a priest. lie . wins reverence for himself and gains respect for the Church, therefore, only as he adds dignity to that part of the ' service which is considered worship. It is easy to see the drift of this view. Nothing being left but forms of worship, these must be made interesting and attractive, or all is lost. When the people weary of repeating the prayers, which good churchmen assure us increase in beauty with every repetition, they must be galvanized into life by intoning. When the responses of the assembly grow stale, the choir must fiin back at the altar a musical amen instead. When the common light, even through stained glass, becomes familiar, tapers must assist. When one priest becomes too Small a point for the eyes of the whole con gregation, he must have a train and get up a procession. The problem is to keep up inte rest in mere forms, and to do this there must be a ceaseless change ot dresses, movements, music in a word, of sensible representation. Let this go on a while, and things will reach a strange pass. The Church, given up to art, and converted into a place, for the most part, of refined entertainment, all the amusements will be baptized and consecrated. Dancing is ' the aesthetical form of walking; why not a sacred dance in the Church ? Did not David danoe before the Ark, ami Miriam lead the host of God, on the banks of the Red Sea, in a sacred measure ? And as dress is one of the . great Church powers, why not all the people dress up in the style of those who serve the ,altar ? Are not all the Lord's people priests ? .'Why not have a grand church masquerade? Certainly there were processions about the .Temple in the oldun times. And why might not every worshipper, thus robed, carry his own taper to church, as Gideon's men carried their torches ? If these changes, growing gradually into use as old forms wear out, should be considered improvements, they would have at least one auvantage that is if tlie churches were open at night, the thea tres would feel the competition. This too youlc? have the advantage of disposing of the . knotty question of the relation-of the Church to amusv-mouts. Now, it is said that we scold ; the ordinary amusements as inconsistent with , onrisuaniv.wimout giving the people any thing in the.'r place. If ritualism should ad , vance as we feuggest, the strife would be ended r by converting amusement into religion, aud using reiig'"" ' ""uaement. , ; What Ikt ttuih Nd,, jPVom the Tribune. we nave receive. many letters from dif ferent portions of the South, setting forth the fearful destitution there prevalent, and its inevitable tendency to paralyxa the energies 0f the people for the growing season now fnlly upon us. Here is a sample of the representa )le of the represonta - important class who ut who wish to be tions of that large and trill accent no alms, but enabled to employ , their still more nocdy neighbors, makfl a crop, and thus contribute to tbe restoration of prosperity and plenty. Writing from Tort Gibson, Miss., April 22, a planter says: . , ' "Wd failed Inm fear In lnaklng crops, at you are awnre. We now have ethatistoa all our mean In carrying our crops thus far. On our place we made corn enough to do us to mane the present crop; but we will want meat, and tbe tirgroea reqnlre a little flour, molasses, tohncco, etc., and wearing, apparel, medicine, and a little liquor; hut I thlnlc they are bolter oil' without the last, having rather veered around to the Maine law policy. Now, I want to find Home one who will advance dry goods and supplies to the value of $100(1, to parties who, or a reasonable calculation, will make two hundred bales of cotton. We are working tho DCKroes upon bhares, as U is allied, they taking part of the crop for their labor. We want goods, akl of American manufacture, some cheap, good prints for a Sunday dress for the women, and good coarse fabrics to work in for both men and women shoes, hats, coarse boots, handkerchief, shawls, aud a few other articles, such as plain work people In the con dition of lately liberated slaves ought to have. I do not think It good policy to encourage them to spend their earnings In 'finery,' as it Is called, but to teach them the value of money and encourage them to lay up a little every yeur. The laws of this Htate give a Hen upon the crops for supplies of this sort," We ask the merchants and capitalists of this city and vicinity to judge whether they can atfvrd to lot such appeals pass unheeded. Leave charity, pity, mercy, etc. etc., wholly out of the account, and consider that there are hundreds of thousands of people white and black loyal and ox-Rebel, who are willing and eager to work and make a great crop, but cannot do it for want of bread and other necessaries of life. If this city were to lend them $100,000,000 to-morrow, they would want it all in corn, Hour, meal, cloth, implements, groceries, and whatever we have to spare and want to sell, reviving our languid trade and giving assurance of future prosperity. For this loan would double the crop of vast re gions every $100 adding at least 100 to the staples which we shall buy of the South and sell to all the world in the course of the next winter and spring. Idleness, vagrancy, out rage, crime, misery, would be signally dimin ished, while industry, thrift, and comfort would be increased and diffused over a region larger than New York and New England, if such a loan could be effected. Why not the banks and the merchants of our city move in this matter 'I Wo only ask them to regard it in the light of their own interests and those of the community. We are well assured that there are thousands of instances where a bare $100 would be so in vested in bread and bacon as to help a planter through with a good crop; whereas without it he must tell his laborers to go anywhere they can find bread, for he cannot supply it. Is it possible that whole counties are to be given over to famine and industrial anarchy for want of an advance which would enrich the lenders while saving the borrowers ? More Indian Atrocities. From the Times. By the way of Salt Lake we have the report of another horrible Indian massacre. A man and his two daughters, fifteen and eighteen years of age, living near Glenwood, in Severn Valley, were murdered by a marauding band of Indians led by the chief Black Hawk. The old man was clubbed to death on the spot, but the young girls were taken captives and re served for a more horrible fate. They were led away a short distance from their homes, where their persons were violated, after which they were put to death with all the excruciat ing tortures which savage ferocity could in vent. Among other things it is reported that rough pine knots were driven into their bowels while they were in the agonies of death. These atrocities were committed at a distance from any garrison, and in a locality where the settlers are lar removed from each other too far to' render timely assistance in case of Indian raids. The Cheyennes, whom General CuBter was reported to be pursuing on the Smoky Hill route, had not been overtaken at the latest reports, but had taken the war-path, and were murdering, pillaging, and burning wherever they went. They are supposed to be making their way to join the mtre northern Indians. Our cavalry is not in condition to pursue, being without forage, and the grass not being sufficiently forward to afford subsistence to the horses. The hardy ponies of the Indians, inured to prairie lite, will thrive and grow fat where horses accustomed to feed on grain will starve to death. General Hancock is reported to have burned, on the '20th inst.,. the Cheyenne village near wliich he had been enoamped for several days. This is the village whioh was so hastily aban doned by the Indians immediately after their conference with General Hancock. They pro fessed to him that they were desirous of living peaceably with the whites, but a few hours afterwards abandoned their village and started upon their career of murder and pillage. They attacked the stations on tne overiauu route, killing the men found there, and securing fresh horses. Tne more northern nanas are still threatening various points, although no recent outrages have been reported as having been committed by tliem. Nearly all the troops we have on the frontier are shut up in forts, being surrounded vj nosiue muiuus who are striving to entice them out of their works for a light. Such troops as are at nueriy to seek the Indians are held in check, and ndered almost useless, by the want oi iorage for linrKes. The conseuueuco is that tne In diana roam about as they please, driving the settlers from their fields, aud carrying devas tation along the border. , ' The truth is, there are not troops enougu iu the Indian country to give security to tue settlers, or to intimidate their treacherous enemies. The Indians laugh at and deride any force they have yet teen, ana win con tinue to do so until they are taught better. While soldiers by the thousands are mung in the fortifications about New York, Boston, Philadelphia, and other northern cities, a few paltry Indians are devastating our bor der, and decorating their weapons with the scalps of peaceful settlors, or the few soldiers who are sent out there to whet the appetite of the bloodthirsty foe. Ihe hor rible atrocities of the Indians call for prompt YM,nin r,Hon. and our coast aeienses should be drained of the last soldier, if a sneedv end to such necessary, to put baibarous warfare. Bad laitn wiia tne Indians has led to this unhapy state or affairs, and in permitting it to continue, the Government is breaking faith with those pioneers of civilization on the border rhom it has promised to protect. Justice and humanity to the Indian, as well as to the white man, demand that the Indian campaign this summer should be " short, sharp, and decisive." Tht Wool Tariff". Prom the Tribune. The passage of the Wool tariff by Congress has been called remarkable legislation. Many 1 other interests claimed protection, anc I r&l iui bad been introduced. But Enemies existed and were created, other interests claimed protection, and a gene- so many aud the East and West became so jealous of each other, that the pnssinge of the bill was found impossible at'a late hour, and as a last resort tbe clauses relating to wool and woollens were introduced as a separate bill, and passed. This left the iron, as well as a - variety of other in terests and industries, without the special pro tection which I hey needed, for, by reason of currency inlluu u, of internal taxation at home, and the competition of cheap untaxed labor abroad, they stand an unequal chance with foreign enterprise. Some Congressmen say they only voted for tho Wool tariff because the wool-men "clam ored" so loudly. There is no doubt that the wool-growers were well organized. Dr. Ran dall, as President of the National Wool-Growers' Association, led the way. Turbulent Western spirits were quieted, and wool-manufacturers wore made to see. Really, there was new light. Western free-traders, of the strict est sort, were made to labor for protection, be cause they had a few thousand sheep. This good management will furnish an example for others to follow. If "clamor" will do so much in one direction, it will be as effective in another. After all, this special legislation seems to promise good results. Notwithstanding an increased duty on foreign wool, woollen goods are no higher than before ; and, although it is supposed the tariff was anticipated, they are no higher than they were a year ago. Our fanners are so rich that they constantly hold large quantities of wool. It is not likely that woollens will be any dearer hereafter. This fact is instructive. The tariff encourages every branch of the wool, business. It has become a fixed fact that wool will not sink below a certain sum. Should it be proposed to repeal these duties, that clamor will arise doubly loud. Sheep-owners know what to depend upon. What next? Sheep will increase fast; in the same proportion, the wealth of the country will increase. Thousands of acres of prairie grass, which before grew and died untouched, will be eaten close. The corn which would be sent to Europe to pay for wool or woollen fabrics will be fed to sheep; wool will be raised at home, the soil will be enriched, and there will be a vast saving in freights and commis sions, and in the unproductive labor required to handle a cheap, heavy product like corn. A bushel of corn weighing 50 pounds will be transformed into one pound of wool worth more money. At the same time, the labor be stowed on the extrn amonnt of corn required to buy wool abroad, will be transferred to the taking care of sheep, and to the building of manulactories for working up wool. When built, there will be new employment, particu larly to young persons, and our youth will engage in more varied industry. Instead of woollen fabrics being dearer, rela tively, they will be cheaper, because, with ample employment, they can be more easily bought. When we fix a point below which wool will not be sold, we not only give the wool business great encouragement, but give life to many other industries. We cease to give a premium to semi-civilized laborers, with few wants: instead, we give it to civilized laborers with many wants. All our other in dustries can be made to prosper in the same way. England, in pursuing this course, laid the foundation of her vast wealth. The free trader who does know this, or, who, knowing it, cannot tell why the same course will not do us as much good as it did her, has better keep still. ' The Loudon Conference. From Vie Herald. For the present, then, we are not to have war. Prussia and Prance are not going to fight. Luxembourg is not to be a casus belli. The gentle voice of England's Queen has in terfered; and like true chevaliers, as they are, Napoleon and William and Bismark have consented to a conference. This is as it ought to be. The Luxembourg difllculty, for reasons which the Herald has already explained, should never have been allowed tu have had even the appearance of disturbing the peace of Europe. Seriously speaking, however, it is well that a conference is to be held. Great dangers, and even catastrophes, have more than once in the world's history arisen from little causes. The threatened cause in this instance was undoubtedly trilling; and although we are not to have war, war was never more immi nent. Nor is it too much to say that if the torch had been applied to Luxembourg the conllagration must have grown until Europe, from the North Sea to the Mediter ranean, and from the Eaxine to the Atlantic, would have been wrapped in its destructive embrace. In a recent speech Sir Archibald Alison, the world-renowned historian of Europe than whom, notwithstanding the many and even serious faults of his history,no man living is better qualified to speak ef the conflicting elements of European society well and truthfully showed the dangers to be ap prehended from the inordinate growth of any one power. Absorption might go on, annexa tion might follow annexation, until the nation alities bhould disappear in one powerful and grinding despotism. We apprehend no such danger until Europe throughout all her bor ders becomes wedded to republican institu tions. But then we shall have nothing to apprehend; for when that change shall have passed over tho public mind of the various nationalities, unity aud centrali zation will be blessings rather than the reverse. In the meantime, however, the ' inordinate growth of any one power is to be looked upon as a real source of danger. Its certain effect would bo to foment heart-burnings and jealou sies among the different powers, and to keep the entire continent in a state of continuous excitement and terror. If, in spite of the civilization of. the nineteenth century, the reign of the sword were to be resumed and might were to become right, the weaker powers would have good cause to be alarmed lor the continuance of their separate and in dependent existence. They would one by one be absorbed; and although the conllict be twixt the greater powers might be long and doubtful, that very conflict is the thing which the European populations have to dread. It would ruin their property, cramp their ener gies, decimate their population, desolate their hearths, bring sorrow to their homes, and throw their civilization backwards for a long andindefinite period. It is well, therefore, that a conference should bo preferred to an open appeal to aims. It may be instrumental, not only in averting pre sent dangers, but in establishing the peace of Europe on a more solid and enduring basis. The treaties of 1815, it was supposed, had, if not permanently, at least for a period of in definite length, settled the question of the balance of power. Prance had been for a season the scourge of Europe. France was accordingly narrowed in her boundaries, and in a variety of ways crippled in her strength, The events which have transpired within tin) last few years have to manv minds rendered it doubtful whether, after all. the balance of lower was not too much in tin. hands of Krauce With a disunited Italy ou the oue hand aud a disunited Germany on the other, Franoo cer tainly bad little caupi to be dissatisfied with her position. The treaties of 1H15 are now no more. Italy is no longer a number of diverse and conflicting principalities, but a united and powerful monarchy. . Germany, from being prostrate, helpless, and at the mercy of France, has risen into a" bold and resolute attitude of defiance. It would be strange If France were not giving signs that she feels hor altered position. Tho treaties of 1815, which she so much detested, are gone; and Frenchmen of every class and of all shades of opinion are surprised that their country has not been made stronger, but rather weaker, by the change. It is this circumstance which renders a new starting point necessary, both for France and for Europe. The balauoe of power, therefere, will be the principal ques tion which will command tho attention of the London Conference, and which, more than auy other, will give tone and character to all their proceedings. As it is little likely France will take exceptions in Germany to what she en couraged and aided in Italy, the unification of Germany, under certain qualifications, will, it is all but certain, receive the sanction of the London Conference, and by fresh treaties the equilibrium of power in Europe may be more effectually secured than for many years has been deemed possible. It is not to be ima gined, however, that concession will all be on tbe side of France. ' There are many outstanding questions which demnnd attention, and tho solution of which may task to tho utmost the skill of the pleni potentiaries.. The Schleswic-Holstein affair is not yet settled; and it is not to be doubted that one of the results oi the conference, unless its proceedings be altogether fruitless, will be the concession of their rights to the inhabitants of the northern part of the united Duchy. The treaty of Prague, it is not impossible, may. in more than one particular, be reconsidered and even modified. The Eastern question, though not. perhaps, formally, will be certain to be considered; and it will not surprise us to find that one of the first fruits of the conference is a joint movement by which it is hoped to bring the affairs of the East to a definite and perhaps permanent settlement. On whom will devolve the duty of presiding in the conference we have yet to learn. Lord Stanley is in many respects the most likely man, not only in the Cabinet, but in the coun try. To have brought about such an event is a proud triumph to the present Govern ment, and reflects no small honor on him who is its virtual head. To the many honors lie has already won, Benjamin Disraeli, the Jew Chancellor oi the Jsnghsh Exchequer, can now add this other, that in a crisis of great and imminent peril he was instrumental in avert ing from Europe all the horrors of war. and. perhaps, in laying the foundation of a firm and lasting peace.
