These words are wonderfully prophetic, and they who read the signs of the times must see that the period 0 their fulfilment draws near. In regard to ecclesiastical societies, the division foretold ls alreadyln a great measure accomplished. Three of our great religious denominations have been rent in twain by the simple question, “Is slaveholding a am i" It yet remains to be seen whether the American Tract Society, and the American Board of Foreign Missions, will be revolu tionised and ismembered by a contest which, we are told, is to be annually renew ed.

There was a time when the constitutional quations between the North and South—the conflict of material interests growingout of their differences in soil and production— were discuased in thespirit nfsmtesmanship and Christain courtesy. Then, such men as Daniel Webstser on theone side. and Gal houn on the other, stood up face to face and ‘ defended the rights of their res the con stituenciee in words which will mooted“ long as the English tongue shall endure as a model of cloguence and a pattern ofman ly debate.

It came first as a purely moral question; but very soon its doctrines were emmed by a sufficient number to hold the balance olfower between parties in many districts an States. Aspirants for the presidency seized upon it as a \reapen for gratifying their ambition or avenging theirdisappomtmenta. Under the shadow of their patronage, ain cere abolitionists became more bold and a busive in advocating their principles. The unlawful and wicked business of enticing slaves from their masters was pushed tor. ward with increasing zeal. Men whopin the better days of the Republic, could not have obtained the smallest office. were dust ed to Congress upon this single issue-rand mini~tcrs of the Gospel descended from the yulpit to mingle religious animoaity with the boiling cauldron of political strife.
