5Iot of the ecclrslustical organizations of the
Btnt"3 lately In revolt have chosen not to renew
their lormer iralernal relations with the like
orirtml nations In the loyal Stales wherewith they
formally dissolved connection at tuc outbreak ol
the Rebellion. For this decision they are
answerable only to God and their own con
sciences. It would be a bitter mockery to pro
fess to love where they really hnle to cotitido
where tbey profoundly district. Still, some of
their resumptions and reasonings seem fairly to
Invite criticism. For instance:
The Southern Presbyterians (Old School) held
a General Assembly at Macon, Gcoraia, three
weeks since, aud, refusing to reunite with the
Presbyterians ot the North, dis-oarrted their do
lilnrately chosen designation, "The Presbyterian
'bureu of the Contcderate States," and took in
stead that ol "The General Assembly of the
Presbyterian Church in the United States." As
that was already the established, recognized
title of a much larger body, we think this as
sumption uniustitiable; and it is certainly calcu
late to breed confusion and mischief.
Alter resolving to have no more cordial or
Intimate relution9 with Northern Presbyterians
than witb other ecclesiastical bod'es whoso
creeds are noi specially objectionable, they
further
Jieso vrit, That our ministers and chu-ohos bo and
hereby itre warmd ai-alnst all ministers or other

sclit-m in our beloved Zion; and, owing to tho pecu
liar reasons for prutlonco winch now exist, we enjoin
it upon our mimstois and sessions to exorcise spociat
caution as to whom tliey admit to their pulpits, and
in oases of dcuot 10 relcr to tho Judgment of the
Presbyteries the wliolo quostion ot tlie nature and

ministers oi other denominations Moodily 10 occupy
nyof our pulpits witnout tho content ot the Pre
lytoilcs, anu the known purpose of such ministers,
at the earliest suitable opportunity, to unitu with us
in ecolesiasxical relations.
Such Is the sanctimonious way of savin?
, that any church w hich fdiall ullow a Northern
Presbyterian to occupy its pulpit will pet into
trouble. We do not think the caution was
needed, but its animus is unmistakable. This
General Assemly then proceeded to deliver the
following testimony coucernina slavery:
"Tufa relation is now overthrown suddenly, vio
lently) whether Justly or uujustiy, In wrath or in
mercy, for woal or tor woo, lot history and the Judtro
of all the earth docido. lint thero aro two conside
rations oi vital interest which still remain.
"One is. that while the existeuco 01 s avery may,
in its ctvil aspects, bo regarded as a civil question,
an Issue now couo, vet the lawiulni ss of the relation
as a question ol social morality and of scriptural
truth has lost nothing oi its importance. Wheu we
solemnly declare to you, brctiiron, ttiat tho doirina
which asserts the inherent sinfulness ot this relation
is unscripturnl and lanaiical; that it is condomued
not on y by the word of God, but by the voice of the
Church in all npos; that it is out) of tho most perni
cious heresies ot modern times; that its eounco
nance bvan church is a just cuuso of separation
from it (1. Tim. 6, 1-5 1, wo have surely said enough
to warn you away from the insidious orror as lrom a
lata) shore.
' Whatever, therefore, e may hare 'to lamout be
fore God, either lorneguct of duty towards our
servants, or lor actual wrong while tho relation
kstcd, we are not called, now that it has boon abo
lished, to bow the head in humiliation before moil,
or to admit that the memory ot many ot our do:v
kindred is to bo covered wilh sliamo, becausa, like
Afrabum, Isaac, and Jacob, they had bouU-nervnt9
born in their own house, or bought with tlieit money,
and who now, redoomod by the same procious blood,
sit down together in the kingdom of Uo.l."
There are several misstatements of fact In
this tesiiuiont, the most, material of which (that
respecting "the voice of the Church in all agoj")
might be refuted by citations lrom the recorded
testimony of the "Presbyterian Church alone.
But the tact that "Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob"
were slaveholders is cited most inconclusively.
They were slaveholders alter a sort, no doubt;
but w ere not the tirst and the last-named poly
jraun'sts as well? Aud will the Southern Old
Schools insist that anti-Poivfiumy is "oue ot the
most pernicious' heresies of moiteru times," as
well us anti-Slavery ? If not, why not?
The Richt Rev. John Henry Hopkins, Pro
testant Episcopal Bishop of Vermont ('!), has
been trying hard to coax his pro-slavery
brother, Bishop Wilmer, of Alabama, back into
the silken bonds of church fellowship. Wilmer
is sweet on the "pood Bishop" of Vermont; but
lie won't be coaxed; and here are his reasons:
"The Southorn'deputios themselves may
very naturaiiy be snppusod to have sum i seuumoiit
in this matter. Their sons and brothers ho in
bloody graver ; thoir land is deso.ate, aud strangers
devour it in their presence; ti.eir emancipated
slaves pan ison their cities; they live themselves, as
yet, uuder the ban; their representative mm, no
guiltier than themselves, is in bonds, and may huvo
to die an ik'nomtuious deu'h. The whom .Southern
people, tho-elore, are at this moniiiut awaiting trial
in Die person of thoir representative head; they
are denounced as felons, an1 a shackled press is
lorbii den to epouk a word of vindication or romon
stiauce. 'Your own heart, pood Bishop, will tell you that
men in such a condition are in no mo d to join iu
jubilate over a restoration which is sealed bv thoir
degradation. Tho peace, lor which le Douuh will
be chanted, is purchased bv the loss of their inherit
ance, and they are now sitting in tno deep valley
Of humiliation.
"The men oi tho South have no desire to proton?
the hopeless conflict, l'lioy aocont the lailu.o of
tbeii ellorta as a tact, and, as Christian men. will
render a faithful allet'ianco to 'the powers that he,'
lor God's suke; but it is asking too much of them
that they shall swell the pugoant wliicu celebrated
their subjugation.
"Some time, Bishop, must bo given to tho hart to
school itse f. Our poop.e aro in no mood for Joyous
congratulations. J hey are not yot out of mourning
lor their dead. It in easy tor you to come together
aud to join heartily in laudaies tor poaco aud re
union. Yours is tho victorious section. It is easy
iorlinnwho triumphs to forgive; and from your
staud-pomt you can thank cod with a lull heart.
We are irying to torsive and forget, and biting up
our hearts lrom the dust, we are trying to say, 'Thy
will be done.'
txcuse some of us, Bishop, for proierrinpt just
now to stand aloof lrom the discussion ot those
subjects. Our wounds are too reoout to bear rough
handling. We have no heart lor them. We have
110 wi-h to discuss tbom, for there cau be no tree
discussion Nor can we, by our nieut proscueo, be
faithless to the memory ot our dead, nor consent to
Stand by whilo others inscribe 'traitor' on their
gravestones."
Supposing this were sound logic, would it
not coudemu tbe loyal (that is, Tory) Episcopa
lians of our Revolutionary era for unltintr. as
they generally did, in oi'trtnizinfr the Protestant
Episcopal churches in the United States 1 Thev
might nave stood out aud insisted on maintain
ing the former state of ecclesiastical dependence
on Enelend. By umtiur with "Rebel" Eplscopa
linns, like George Washington and John Jay. to
form an independent American Church, they
may or may not nave consented to "stand D.y
while others inscribed 'traitor on tho grave
stones" of their deceased compatriots. At all
events, thev did precisely what Bishop Wilmer &
Co. now refuse to do; aud the world has judged
irrevocably that iney aw wisely.
But this is not the more essentfal matter or
rather, not that in which we take the deeper in
teiest. What strike us as offensive and inexcu-
sablv arrocaut In the Bishop's letter is his com
plcte ipnoriug ot uny Southerners but those who
threw themselves headlone into the Rebellion.
Now the Southern churches peneraily have for a
century had more black than white members,
aud have far more to-day; yet these are no more
lenorded bv Wilmer than though they were
d.c's. "The whole Southern people," he assert
"tire at this moment awaiting trial in the person
ot ihetr representative head." No, they are not.
Bibhop I and you, us a Christian pastor, ought to
know it 1 Of the three sml a half millions of
8outh?rn bl( ks, not one Is "awaiting trial" iu
the porson of Jeti'crson Davis; not one fee a him
self denounced as a ielon; not cue is now "Jit
ting in the deep valley of humiliation ;"' not one
lecls that his "oimd' are too recent" to al!ow
ns rough handling as may be re piir"d for na
tional restoration and pciu'c. There are many
other hearty Southern Unioniits as white as
BUhop Wilmer but he- sees nobody m the South
but Confederates, and insist. that other shall
use Vis spectacles. We cannot consent.
We might ask the Bishop to consider that there
arc unhealed wounds North ai well as, South
that wo, too. have been called to make saciirices
Hint we, too, moiiru oxr dead. Let nil this
jinss; mid itic'ee ciilmly nnl Justly whut liarht is
thrown by tho' Bishop's letter on the temper of
what he considers the "South," and on tho
grave problem of reconstruction. .
Mr. Seward's Diplomatic Expedition
Governor Cox, ot Ohio, on the Monroe
Docti me-Probable Partition ot Mexico.
From the Htrald.
The Secretary of State and his assistant are
off in the United States steamship De Soto on au
excursion o' a few weeks to warmer latitudes.
It is understood ut Washington that the south
ern limit ot this voyage of dUcovry will bo
Vera Cruz, und that en route Mr. Seward will
touch at the little island of St. Thomas for a
confidential conference with General Suuta Auuu
on Mexican affairs.
This is an important fact; for It must be re
membered that (ieneral Santa Anna is iu exile
at present, mrler the orders of Louis Napoleon
and Maximilian, and that the distinguished
Mexican r x -President is a zealous supporter of
the republic and a believer in the speedy down
tall ot the Umpire. It does not lollop, however,
that Mr. Seward in this mission contemplates
the reinstatement of tho Mexican republic or the
removal of Maximilian. On the contrary, we
are strongly inclined to the opinion that tha
result ot tliis expedition will probably be a divi
sion of Mexico between Maximilian and the
United States.
We have had some hint. of such a propoiel
settlement, and that it embraced the cession to
the United States of the Northern Mexican pro
vinces or States ot Tamaulipas, New Leon, Con
bulla, Chihuahua, Sonora, and the loutf peniu
stila of Lower California, and the great gull
which divides it from lhe mainland, compre
hending an area of land equal to eiirln States of
the size of New York. This i generally a tim
berlcss and waterless region; but it embraces
many fertile districts and h rich in the precious
metals. Its mineral resources ai.d commercial
advantages to us lor overland communications
with the Pacific, via the Unit ot California, would
be immense; while, (rom tue wild Indians and
irrepressible guerillas roaming over this vast
section, it can" never be anything but a dead
expense to Maximilian. Hence he will be the
painer by a bargain whih cedes all this north
ern division ot Mcsico to the United States.
Why, then, should not such a settlement lie
made? It appeurs not only feasible from tho
solid advantages it oilers to both parties, but
very plattsiole from the Withdrawal by Maxi
miliun of his troops lrom sonora. Chihuahua,
and other Northern provinces. In this move
ment he is probably carrying out a condition of
an agreement already entered into, aud which is.
pcibnpe, to be consummated in a meeting with
jvir. bow arn at vera ltuz. The strenrrtheiuns o
the delcnses ot that phce, tmd the almost daily
arrival there ot French reinforcements tor Maxi
milian, can be reconciled only with some such
theory as this of the object of Mr. Seward's expe
dition. It is clear that Maximilian is shortening
his military lines to strengthen himself, and that
wnat ne leaves outside tie is prepared to relin
quish; and we think that Mr. Seward is not igno
rant ot, and is not opposed to. these movements,
from the very tact that ho proposes a visit to
v era m-uz.
But, in 8iipportot this idea ;ha a partition of
Mevico is contemplated and actually in progress
we nave other eviaeuce ro oner, it is not di
rectly to the purpose, but it is very significant.
tJovernor Vox. the new Kepublican Governor of
Ohio, and a cordial supporter of President John
son's Southern restoration policy, uttered some
very no id opinions on tue Mexican question in
tes
message the other dav to the Ohio Legisla
ture. He strongly objected to the detention of
the Ohio troops on the Rio Grande to watch
those Of Maximilian. He repudiates the Monroe
doctrine as n matter of moonshine. He savs that
Mexico never cau be a republic uuder the exist
ing Mexican people. He contends that self-gov
ernment with them and all those Spanish Ameri
can republics means nothing but anarchy vio
lent, bloody, and incendiary ; that, us a republic.
Mexico bus continually injured all nations hav
ing any dealings with her, "has ruthlessly ruined
and oppressed her own people, and has brought
disgrace alike upon the sacred name of republi
can liberty and oi human nature." And hrinllv,
uovei nor cox is not only opposed to going to
war with France, but is o'oposed to the nolicv of
bullying her iu behalf oi such a monstiosity as
the Mexicaa republic.
Now, we believe that Governor Cox. standing
as the otlicial head ot the Republican party of
the great State of Ohio, would not utter such
opinions without some powerful supporters ;to
duck mm. lie is not speaking at taudora, but
lor a purpose and a new movement with which
he has become associated. We think it very
likely that Chief Justice Chae and Mr. Seward,
strange as rnav seem this conjunction, are in
this new movement, and that it comprehends a
financial and political scheme agaiust General
Grant and the army and navy as elements of
political power. General Grant poes for the
Monroe doctrine; the urmy Is for it. Let it be
enforced to the extent of a war with France.
and Grant and the armv may carry off all tho
honors of the next Presidential election. No
thing more probable. But, with a settlement of
this Mexican imbroglio by a partition of Mexico
between the United States and Maximilian, tho
uungers to our mucinous civuiaus irom a n"w
crop of laurels to General G rant and a new batch
of available generals lor political purposes may
all be avoided.
This theory of the politicians against the armv
is very suggestive. , It may result in the settle
ment indicated, or it may lead to a new organi
zation ot parties, with the rmseuibling of
Congress on Friday we may have eome interest
ing developments beariu? upon this southern.
sea excursion ot Mr. sewurd. I- rom all the lucts
and evidence before us we conclude that he is
charged with the business of a compromise with
Maxim iliau ou the basis ot the partition of
Mexico.
The Cunencv.
From the World.
Tncre is no question awaiting tha action of
Congress of greater urgency than the restoration
of the currency to a healthy condition. It mani
festly takes precedence of measures looking to
the payment of the public debt, Inasmuch as the
debt mu6t be paid out of the surplus profits of
business and the surplus earnings of Industry,
and business and Industry cannot be re-established
on a stable foundation until the currency,
which U its life-blood, Is reduced and purified.
If a man rising from a sick bed is to pay a debt
out of his subsequent earnings, his creditor has
a greater interest in the recovery of his vigor
than in his wages duriug convalescence.
This complex question is so hemmed in with
dill'ioulnc, that any man would evince more
Bclt-suUiciency than Judgment who should be
very confident he had discovered its true solu
tion. But thU is no reason why any on? having
ideas on the sublect should not freely state
them. The question needs to be considered in
all its aspects; and even imperfect aud one-sided
views may have their use as contributions to a
complete examination.
We shall be better prepared to ludge of the fit
ness of the means, If we cun tirst get a clear Idea
of the end to be attained. Happily, this branch
of the mquiiy is not difficult. Excepting a small
number of visionary people who set theiuselve3
up tor a sort ot financial c, w lights, it is agreed
that when the currency is restoied to a normal
condition, the greenbacks will have been retired,
the bunks will redeem their notes in specie, aud
only coined money wid be a legal tender for
debts. Taking this as the condition which it Is
necessary to restore, it is easy to dispose of a
ci eat mass of cloudy crudities put lorth bv lea
soncrs whose pride of singularity, or Iar of im
liiedinte consequences, lead tbr'm to oppose nil
measures tor the withdrawal of the legal-tender
notes. (Mice grant that these notes are ultimately
to 1)0 withdrawn, and that their redemption Is to
be one ol the principal evidences of restored
health, and thero is only lelt a question ot t.ie
most suitable time and the most appropriate
means. When it ii said that the wl'hdrnwal oi
the greenbacks will reduce prices and inflict l ss,
it 1 not ncedfiil to dispute the conclusion, but
only to a.ik whether it can evtr be done without
causing a decline iu the value of property? If
not, why should we be making ry faces at the
medicine when, sooner or later, we shall be
compelled to take?
Assuming, then, as proved that tbe greenbacks
nie to be redeemed and retired, tbe question
next in order in, whether it shall Jbe done at
once or gradually? To this question there are
two sides; but it will not be diliicult. we think,
to find ou which the reasons prooondcrate. The
main argument for the Immediate resumption of
specie payments is, that the business of tho
countiy cannot be conducted with advantage
wbilo it is sliding down a declivity of gradually
decreasing prices. The soundness oi this idea
cannot well be controverted; tor why should
men purchase or produce commodities to be
sold in a tailing market ? But tbe exaggeration
of a truth may be as misleading as a downright
error. There' is not a inroi or a plantation in
the country but will be equally cultivated,
whether prices advance or decline. The price
ot cotton and of other Southern staples will,
under any circumstances, be high enough to en
courage production.
The price of grain, which is our chief staple,
is regulated by the foreign demand; its prioe in
Liveipool determines its price in New York. As
the cost of transportation will go down with the
general decline, the farmer will receive for his
giuin nearly as much value, though less nomi
nal money. Manufacturers could protect, them
selves ughinst serious loss by the smallness of
their pi oductiou, which would, in sortie degree,
correct the mischievous effect of thi tariff winch
diverts cupitul and industry from more profitable
branches of industry. It" is as certain as any
thing in the future, that iu a few years the tariff
will be recti lied and reduced, and it is we'd that
menn'ime there should be some check to the
stimulus ot high duties In drawing capital into
oraches ol business not productive enough to
be telf-siipportiiig.
Having pointed out these mitigations of the
undeniable evils of a falling murket, we will
stuto some of the objections to an attempt to
return immediately to specie psymeuts. We
astiime that it caii be dono only by the with
drawal of a very considerable proportion of the
legal-tender notes. Gold and silver will never
circulate side by side with any currency not re
deemable in the precious metals. Neither the
Goverume.it nor the banks will redeem in coin
so long as the currency is redundunt. When
the currency is in a norinal state, men wanting
gold take bunk notes to the institution which
issued them and demand payment. But till the
greenbacks nrc. withdrawn, the banks will p;iy
in thtrn; and gold can be procured only by pur
chasing it at a premium. Kvou the Immediate
repeal of the letul-iender net would not re-toie
t-peeie payment-, except t creditors making au
oppressive use of the legal light-1. Legislation
can no more control the natural laws in this
lespect than in others; us is cxempliJed by the
history ot our New York State bauks.
Our Constitution i.f 184 i was so rigorous and
stringent as to ordain that no bank should con
tinue to do business longer tnau it redeemed iu
specie; and it prohibited the Legislature troin
directly or md recti y permitting any bank to do
so. When the financial crash ol ls57 came, the
State banks did suspend; and, by continuing to
do business, demonstrate i tue poWerlessness of
the legal enactments, even thouah taking tho
ioim of Bolcmn constitutional provisions, to
maintain a specie currency against the neces
sities ot society. The State courts invented
subtle and ingenious reasons to explain away the
undoubted meaning of the Constitution: and
both belore and alter their decision, the notes of
tuc suspended bauK3 continued to circulate pre
cisely as belore.
For similar iousous, the greenbacks and legal
tender notes would remain our sole currency,
until other changes hud taken place rendering
resumption possible. The choice would lie be
tween the currency and none; and as it would
remain good lor the payment ol taxes, to the
amount ot to or three hundred millions a year,
it would h-ive tin element of value sullicient to
keep it in circulation; i ust as the nasty, sticky
posture-stamps supplied the place of small
change, till a substitute for silver ws issued by
the Treasury.
We regard it as clearthough the reader,
perhaps, may not think it sullieiently proved
that the nitre repeal ol the legal-tender act
would not restore spec e pa mcuts. Bui if he
will not accept it as a conclusion, let him at lea it.
9 runt it to us as u postulate, and accept the con
sequences which must follow irom itsudoiissiou.
If the immedial" resumption ol specie payments
cannot be compelled by the repeal ot the legal-
tenuer act, then no sudden resumption is possi
ble, lor the entirely conclusive reason that thcie
is no possibility ot w i'udrawing at once a large
portion of the legal tender notes. The monev
which is paid into the Treasury in taxes is paid
oui upiuu in me current cxpcnuit tires nun inter'
est on lhe debt. It will thus be kept in circuld
tion till the Treasury can borrow other money to
use m its stead.
Beioto there can be redemption there must be
heav loans; loans, in the first place, sullicient
to take up aud dispense with the further issue
oil certificates ot indebtedness: and loans, in the
next pinee, equal to the amount of the green
backs redeemed. When the Secretary of tho
Treasury comes into the market asking a loan
lor this latter purpose, he will theieby produce
a stringency which will render the success ot the
loan nioie or less slow and diliicult. If he should
apply lor enough lor the immediate redemption
of all the creeii Clicks, he would nrobablv get
nothing. 'Uie thing i not susceptible of being
none except bv foinc gradual method.
As the withdrawal ot the greenbacks must
nccesMuily take time, it ought to be begun at
once, and prosecuted wi h steadiness and cau
tion. The particular steps require more 6nace
