THE WISDOM OF OUR ANCESTORS.
It is satisfactory to find that, step by step,
the Parliament and Government of England
are reducing obsolete observances down to
common sense practice—correcting, altering,
improving, and sometimes even abolishing
them. We may not live to witness It, but our
children will probably hear of the abolition of
a great many useless absurdities which oven
yet are slurs upols the political and social aye
tem of England. The time may not be far
distant when Royalty, challenging respect for
its actual merit rather than trying to exact It
on account of its external trappings, will be
content to do the magnificent on state•occa
slops only—will dispense with the attendance;
as servants, of a nobility considerably
richer than itself—will abolish the debasing
practice of making every one retire backyard
from its presence—will put such aril:kale
as "Grooms of tho State," and de gold
and Silver Sticks in Waiting," quietly upon
the shelf—and will travel hem place to place,
just as comfortably and unostentatiously as any
of our Presidents have done. Perhaps, igno
ring the antiquated legal dogma that gi the
wisdom's in the wig," such of our children as
visit Westminater Hall, when they pay_their
visits to cc the old country," may find Chan
cellors,
1 1
Chiefs, Puisne Judges, Attorneys, and
Solicitors General, Sorgoants-at-Law, Queen's
Counsel, and utter barristers pleading, argui
ing, cross.examining, charging juries ' and
passing sentence, without having their limbs
encumbered with stuff or silk gowns, their
heads lost in huge perukes of horsehair.
These and similar absurdities have been per
petuated in England, chiefly because they are
old. Thirty years ago, when that intolerant old
bigot, the late Sir ROBERT HARRY 'Nom,
spoke in Parliament of "the wisdom of our
ancestors," be got a rap on the knuckles hem
HARRY HAI:011011AR, 80 pointed , !MOTO, and true
that even we, whose memory Is but Imperfect,
(es our readers and the world know,) recollect
it yet. Baorarram spoke to this effect, and
we quote the words, because in our own coun
try there are a good many persons, with anti
quated notions, who look upon all innovation
as symptomatic of ruin and revolution:,
"The honorable baronet says: 'I do not like
to talk so slightingly of—l do not like
to disparage—the wisdom of our an
castors.' The phrase, however, I consider
to have been one of the most fruitful
sources of mischief to the country; but
I einst inform the honorable baronet that
that phrSse had been disparaged long before
the existencd Of the test and corporation acts—
not by ridicule, but by sound argument—not
by the sneers of the senseless, but by the
soundest wisdom, the greatest knowledge, tho
highest intellect, that England ever produced:
I commend the phrase to the mitigated cen
sure of the honorable baronet. For it was a
Lord Iligh•Chancellor of England—a person
by the name of BACON, or some such name—
a name, perhaps, which has no respect in the
eyes of the honorable baronet—who first
stamped the seal of disparagement on the
phrase which the honorable baronet brings
forward ibis evening to fright thl House Rom
its propriety. He It was, sir, who first repro
bated the eternally recurring phrases of the
,wisdom of our ancestors.' He it was , Who
laughed at the phrase of , expertence of PaSt
ages.' In truth," continued BROUGHAM, "ir not
a contradiction in terms, it is the grossest abuse
of language ; for it proceeds upon this basis,
that the world was older and wiser when it
was younger, than it now is, when every
youth knows more than the gray hairs of
former times."
It is a common and conventional error, in
all countries,
to laud this "wisdom of .our
ancestors." We bavo less of it than almost
any other people, but still we aro not wholly
free from it. But the British aro decidedly
addicted to it. With them, it is quite a
fashion to be eulogistic on the social virtues
of "bluff King lIAL," and to the golden days
of "good Queen BEss," and to speak of "the
good old times" as if the Present were in no
way equal to the Past, as if Men/ VIII was
not a wife-murderer, ELIZABETH TVDDIL a
despot, JAMES I a pedantic fool, and his son,
headless CHARLES, a weak tyrant.
What are admiringly called "the good old
times" beautifally illustrate the boasted " win.
dem of our ancestors." They were times in
which arbitrary power was all, and the com
mon rights of man were nothing. The won•
der now is, monarchs and nobles being then
so weak and wicked, that the people should
have endured them. Think of that purple
tyrant, nanny VIII, of whom it was truly
said that he never spared man in his wrath
nor woman in his lust; of that cruel creature,
his eldest daughter, chronicled to all Limo as
" Bloody Mary ;" of that wilful tyrant ELIZA
BETH, who murdered her cousin MARY of
Scotland, because she was beautilbl, and de
capitated her own lover, ESSEX, because she
WAR jealous ref him; of JAMES STUART, " the
wisest fool in Christendom," whom even the
courtly pen of WALTER SCOTT could not re
present as other than mean and cowardly; of
his children, who expiated their crimes—ono
on the scaffold, and the other in miserable
exile. Think of these rulers, and ask how
" the good old ,`lmes" can be praised.
The historic pogo records how deficient In
all that makes a p. topic happy, intelligent and'
prosperous, the Ee:glish were in those lauded
times. The luxuries,. the comforts, the very
necessities of our daily life, were wanting
there. Rank and Wealt b Loaded it over honest
and humble industry. The Ration was in a
state of serfdom. RoTaitY ,and nobility
dealt with "the lower orde.'s" astif they were
brute beasts; they buffeted' them, .despised
them, persecuted theca, viciously bated and
strongly coerced them. And," In the good old
times," this was humbly subru.itted to. Mie
speak not of the earlier perlot.is of British
history, when the WILLIAMS, the lisaurs, the
EDWARDS, and the RICHARDS roughly ruled,
but of later periodi of the time a ten vir
tuous Moss was sacrificed, when STEN,int and
SHARSPEARE wrote, when lista= fought
and was executed, when MILTON compos,sl his
immortal epic, when SIDNEY fell on the OW
feld, when DRYDEN flourished and Benxi
starved—of the two centuries which includ,sd
the events of British history, from the acces
sion of the Tunorts at Bosworth Field to the
deposition of the STUARTS, consummated by
the defeat on the banks of the Boyne Water.
In those times, women of even the more
exalted ranks could do little more than barely
sign their names. A nobleman was consider
ed erddito who could spell with comparative
correctness. The bulk of the middle chums
were ill-informed—the laboring masses were
almost wholly unable to read and write. Pro
fligacy was the practice of the higher ord urn—
intrigue the apparent business of their life.
Cdatitas II increased the peerage by making
Dukedoms for his illegitimate children, a.lid
set public example of debauchery unprece
dented, even in France under the Regent Oa-
LEIIIII. Yet every Sabbath this man was
prayed for, by order of an act of Parliament,
as the people's "most religions and gracious
King," the liturgy thus making clergy and
congregation utter a glaring falsehood. Tho
evil example infected all classes, and spread
all through the social system. But "the
good old times" saw nothing wrong in this;
they folly adopted the State aphorism that
"the Ring can do no wrong." A slavish doc
trine this, and a fitting subject for future illus
tration—it is too copious for us now.
Arts, science, Government, letters, and,
above all, the popular knowledge of popular
rights, were kept under in It the good old
times." Such a thing as a Free Press could
not exist in those days. There was neither
freedom df action, speech, nor thought. One
unfortunate printer who had published tour
►inea of Fluent rhyme, exprosolog a hope
that Queen ELIZABETII would marry, to pro
ride an heir and successor to the Crown, was
considered to have treated " the Queen's most
excellent Majesty' , with too much freedom,
was taken up, prosecuted, tried, and con
demned to lose his hand. This cruel sentence
was actually carried into effect, in the heart of
London, (on a scaffold in Charing Cross,) the
public executioner chopping off the victim's
right hand, which severed member was subse
quently presented to the Queen, who had in
sisted on seeing that the sentence had boon
carried out.
We take leave to think that the times in
which we live are better than those in which
our ancestors existed. We feel thankful, for
example, that the practical enormities of re
ligious intolerance could not be submitted to
now, as they formerly were when the Council
Of Constance sent Joint Huss to the stake, as
a heretic, on one side, while, oil the other, on
the prosecution by Caivix, the distinguished
SERMON was burnt alive at Geneva. We now
have liberty of speech, a free press, equal
laws, and a full share of personal freedom. If
wo want to travel, the steam locomotive takes
us es far in one hoar as sometimes was pain
(idly performed between sunrise and sunset,
On bad roads, in the time of the Teem, or
oven of the STUARTS. Do we desire to cross
the world of waters which divides the New
World from the Old, we can do it in ten days
—a period often consumed, before FVLTON'A
application of steam as a motive power, in the
transit between Liverpool and Dublin. If wo
want•inteliigenco, the electric fluid itself—that
which our FRANKLIN snatched from Heaven—,
is our vassal, and brings us news ahnost as
rapidly as Thought itself can speed.
If wo desire to obtain instruction or enter
tainment, for the studious or the leisure hour,
machinery cheapens, by multiplying the pro
ductions of human intellect, and books—a
rarity in former days—are at our hand at a
cost which is marvellously low. Or, if we
ask for a record of occurrences, which corn
meets on the transactions and politics of the
whole world, there are newspapers, nearly un
known and always shackled in the olden time,
which spread knowledge through the land, and
are themselves the handmaids of civilization:
particularly and disinterestedly we can com
mend gf Tuf Pawls" in this respect!
In a word, the day-laborer of the present
day is happier, wiser, freer, better informed,
better clothed, better housed and better fed
than oven the proud nobles of England were
under HENRY TIIDOR.
Who, with such advantages, can be content
to bo a more ‘, lanador tereporis actiP' In
preference to the traditions of tho• Past, how
ever venerable the duet which gathers over
them, give us the present time of Progress,
and the future of something even more supe
rior than what we now enjoy. To the ser
vants of a fading monarchy we leave all re
grets for the days gone by. We are proud to
battle under a banner which covers humanity
at large, and is inscribed with the noble mot
to—" Excelsior."
RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE.
The Welcome News.
.To herald the success of the Sub-Atlantic
Telegraph enterprise as even in the remotest
sense an item of religious news, we admit
might, with some show of propriety, be re
garded as a far-fetched Idea; and yet, who at
this age of the Christian era can for a moment
doubt that any enterprise, over the success of
which the great heart of the two continents
beat in rapturous unison, will eventually
bear a marked influence upon the chiefest in
terest of tuition/ and ofrnen—fer adramement
of true 'Glider this improsion more
than any other, we doubt not that devout
minds all over the land have at least mentally
expressed their sense of gratitude for the al
most unexpected success with which this ef
fort has at last been crowned, if indeed a suc
cess it is .
Of the twenty.threo Jubilant despatches re
ceived on Thursday night, and which appeared
in this paper of yesterday, tho ono from An.
dover, Hass., was exceedingly felicitous on
this point. For the despatch as received,
and the striking contrast between. it and
the one from the doubting Thomases of Rut
land, Vormoat, the reader is referred to the
record. The acknowledgment of the thousand
at the semi•contennial dinner of the alumni at
Andover, in a prayer of acknowledgment to
Providence for the success of the telegraphic
enterprise, and the singing, by tho whole
audience, of the hymn of praise,
"Praise God, from whom all bleulaga ow,'!
was certainly a most pleasing Incident to re.
cord in connection with ' that wonderful
achievement. This subject wilt doubtless con
stitute a very general theme of reference in
our various pulpits to-morrow.
PUILADELPIIIA MlNrsr aiAL UNION.—The
fourth meeting of the Ministerial Union since,
and including the one on the date of its final
organization, on 'the 17th of May last, was
held on Tuesday of this week, at the rooms of
the Young Men's Christian Aeseciation, Chest.
nut street, above Tenth. Tho Union" now
numbers seventy-five members—clergymen of
various denominations. At the meeting oa
Tuesday the proceedings wore of a most in
teresting and harmonious character, the ses
sion having been mainly occupied with devo
tional exercises. The statements made by
members respecting the condition and pros
pects of the Divine work in their several fields
of Inner were mutually encouraging. One no
ticeable feature in their deliberations was, the
fact that all speculations concerning the past
and the present have ceased, and the univer
sal theme now is, not how far the present work
of grace shall extend into the future, but how
they can be most efficiently employed to have
it continue forever.
A GREAT UNION BOILDINO.—From the
American Presbyterian of this week wo learn
that a movement is now on foot to purchase a
house en Chestnut street for the Young Men's
Christian Association. As a great Union
effort—as such an enterprise unquestionably
would be—the consummation of this move
' ment would be most desirable. A house, for
°sample, centrally located, and containing, in
addition to the rooms requisite for the busi
ness and c onvenience of the Association, an
audience .chamber of sufficient capacity to
contain thousands, who should there assemble
from day to day for social communion with
their Maker, would, doubtless, be an important
auxiliary to the .Union mauls which have been
already so effectually disseminated by this
excellent association. Of all the substantial
projects yet inanger4ted by this society, the
' consummation ,of ttbia vitri)res as of Para
mount Importance; and with its thousands of
Mends, Including a large proportion of our
wealthiest citizens, who stand ready to do any
service to testify their appreciation of its la
bore in 'the cause of religion and humanity,
our word fir it, it needs but a unanimous de
cision on the part of the association itself in
favor of the movement to Insure its success.
BEDMRD SPRINOII.—Soon after the opening
of the se aeon at this delightful summer resort,
a daily morning prayer meeting was com
menced in the dining-room of the hotel,
which wits largely attended. Some time
during last week, we learn, an opposition was
manifested on the part of some toward this
religious part of the Bedford Springs pro
gramme, And accordingly an effort was mado
to have the meetings discontinued. This in
terference was, however, promptly counter
acted by the guests of the hotel, in an ex
pression of opinion, stated by a visitor to
have been five to ono in favor of their continu
ance; and the result of which has been that
t'ne meetings ore much more largely attended
than before.

new zeal into the devoted Christian men wbo

Letter from Newport.
Notreipondence of The Press.)
NEWPORT, R. 1., Augnet 4,1858
Yon have passed a year of most successful
journalism; you have more than fulfilled your
promises and the expectations of your friends.
The public have responded so unequivocally to
your fearless and independent course that, for the
first time in the history of Pennsylvania, ehe pos
sesses a Stare newspaper, whose influence can be
exerted for her benefit and progress with. an3'
hopefulness of making an impression upon her
people. You have spent much of your .time in
Washington, and have no doubt seen:the abeenee
of the warm, patriotic State pride in citizens of
our State whloh is manifested from other,. Tho
mention of Kentucky and Virginia Sonde a thrill
to the hearts of any of her absent eons, while
there always appeared to be a , madam and
lietiommess when our good old State claimed
homage from her sons. Yours is a Philadelphia
journal,. but you are identifying yourself witk
every Interest of the State. This le a wits coarse,
and if persisted in Will give you Memo° for go-id
never before wielded by any other editor,
They say Newport is dull. What a. whirl tfs
must have boon in the pest years of extravagance
and folly if this Is dull! Wealth seems to have
tartan enduing record of its work.' I doubt if
the world can show a concentration of seek pale- .
dal private residences and exquisite rural re
treats; such exquisite arboroul tura and refined gar
dening The wealth of our land imams to have
concentrated its energies to adorn and beautify
this spot, whose climate is, beyond comparison, the
only delightful one in our land. Newport numbers
thousands of transient visiters, all bout on self-in
dulgenee, with a round of life diverelfled by all the
amusements invented by a social circle of cultivated
tastes—the bathing, the visiting, the dancing, the
gaming, the balls, and, above all, the drives. And
such drives! No exhibition that I have ever seen
in Hyde Park can equal the glittering show of
three hundred carriages on the beach or in the
fort, where a band of music delights the ear, while
magnificently dressed women, in luxurious coaches,
circle round to see and be admired ; certainly, no
where la Anodes can one see mob a spectacle.
Your numerous correspondents from the mountains
of Pennsylvania have Nature in all her magnificent
!Inlander; but bore are grand old ocean and the
perfeotion of arts, A vast number are wealthy
men from the South, who remain here to escape the
climate of their homes, and it has made me think
and feet that if a little enterprise and public spirit
Icould be started in Philadelphia, to induce them
to sojourn with us in winter, we could make our
city the Paris of America. Three hundred and
fifty thousand rtrangers are now in Paris; snit
by liberal ordinances fur legitimate amusements,
and reform in some of our puritanical legislation,
which makes that beet of days for 'the poor a day
of pain, with some groat enterprise, We would en
courage, in a few years, a population which would
make our retail trade sales and subordinate
branches of industry proeporoos beyond belief.
Work at this, and keep thelphjeot before you. Make
the people of Pennsylvania love Philadelphia ;
make them proud of her, and eceourege them to
make her the splendid inland capital of our
entire nation. They will have more than an
equal share in the profit In the market she will
afford. Tux Corowzr..
News from Lancaster.
(Correspondence of The Prescl
latiOArren, Aug. 4, 1858.
Never, within the recollection of the "oldest
inhabitant," has Lancaster presented no dull an
appearance. Business of all kinds is etagnant,
and the prospect of revival exceedingly gloamy.
Added to the " pressure of the times," the failure
of the " Lancaster Bunk and the Savings Institu
tion" has operated injuriously to the business of
the city. The farmers have not only become sus
vicious of the institutions, Jwit of the residents of
the town. and have invested their surplus moneys
in the West—or in their own neighborhoods—
which formerly found its way hen. Some of
them, however, have been " nipped" in loaning
their funds, at 30 per cent a year, to Western
land-speculators, and are now in a ° perplexing
predicament" as to the'proper course to be pursued
in the future.
The crops have nearly all been secured, and the
yield has been more than an average one. It is
true that the white wheat has suffered from the
weevil, but the damage done to it has been more
than made up by the extraordinary fullness of the
grain and weight of the red. The oats Drop, al
though not all cut, is fully up to any former year.
The corn and potatoes look beautifully, and the
supply, both in quantity and quality, will be one
third greater than last year.
The political cauldron has not yet begun to boil.
From present indications, the opposition to the Na
tional Administration will have a "good time" in
the selection of a candidate for Congress—there
being no less than ten aspirants. The most pro
minent are Hon. Thaddeus Stevens. E. O. Darling
ton, Esq , of the Examiner, and A. Herr Smith,
Esq., formerly of the State Smote ; with the
dances greatly in favor of the first named gentle.
man. It is the desire of the Opposition not only to
sand one of their ablest men to Congress from the
" President's home," but ono who, of all others,
14 most obnoxious to the present occupant of the
White House.
The Democrats are not so fortunate The diffi.
catty is to obtain a gentleman who will wept the
nomination on the platform established at Wash
ington. Before the change of the Kansas policy
of the President there were several prominent
Democrats exceedingly anxious for a place on the
ticket because there was a fair prospect of an
election. "But," to use the expressive language
of one of them, an intimate personal friend and
ardent admiler of Mr. Buohanan, t'Lecompton has
knocked h—Mont of the Demooratio party of Lan
caster county for the next ton years." It is more
than probable that Gen. Geo. M. Steinman, one
of our most consistent Democrats, will be indueed
to accept the nomination out of personal regard
for the I"resident, but without the remotest hope
of an election.
Notwithstanding the strong anti•Lecotopton sen
timent of the mass of the Democratic party of this
county, the drill-sergeants of the Administration
—the postmastert—will insist upon LoCoMPlen re
solutions being passed by the County Convention.
