Well. them rejoice, and banter and }>»nn. Tney have a majority in Congress, but they obtained that majority by trampling the rights of the people hi the lust, and by resorting to a paver such a v ae but tyrants and usurpers ever use,— When they way that a nujorily of tbo North ern penvvle have sanctioned their treason and their villainies, they falsify, and they know it. Wnli the exception of three or four of iho negro-equality New England States, every Northern and every Border State, at a fair election, would give a triumphant Dem n*rutie majority to-day. It is double-distilled impudence in the Abolition members of Con gress to claim that tho people (who are nil ways Imnesr hut o/ten douched.) are with them in their assaults upon the Union of our (athci’s. But. the Abolitionists are in the majority in all bramdies of the G ivernment, and why should limy not rejoice?

UoTias the rank ofAfyor.— J'Jxc/mw/e. # Thus another pieachcrwho denies Christ has been provided for. In our last we called the attention of our readers to the'election of the'Kcv.

House of ItupresentaliveH. and now another anti-Christ man is advanced from the pulpit to “ |lie rank of Major” is the UVitanan to he the Government religion under the reign of Abraham the First? It looks that wav, and no doubt the people will soon be required to take the necessary oath on the subject of the “ loyalty” of their reli gion. We are now living under a despotism, and will .be required to submit to a despot's behests It is a historical fact that Abolitionism nnd infidelity are closely connected. The miniu ter who becomes a fanatic on the nigeer qinWlmn. preaches abolitionism instead of Christ and Him crucified. Ti e original ab »• litionists charged that Gi.d was pro-slavery nod that the Bible was the same. They caPed for an anti slavery 0-nl and au unti slavery Bible. These fuels are not nor can not be denied. Then comedown to tho death rifjuii* Brown, a coldblooded murderer, a thief and a villian, and you find Infidels com paring him to Christ, the son of God, on the cross. Is this not sufficient to prove the in fidelity of the abolition party ? If not, what will be the ppmf-? If you see a man stealing a horse, am you not convinced that he is a thiet? If John Brown was known to have killed men because of their holding slaves, was he not a murderer I If he did both, was ho not a villain ? If he was all these, and we know he was, is nut tho man who will Compare him to Christ an Infidel and a scoun drel also? The fanatical abolitionist is.nine times nut- often a‘confirmed lulidel„ Infi dels claim this fur themselves, and they know of what they speak. Then, we say, abolitionism and infilelity are closely connected. Tho abolitionists teach hatred against'tho slave owner. They do not reason, but like Joiin Brown, would murder men in the dark because those men do not endorse the abolition sentiment. » A SfeNAT .it UitiuEu—Mr. Hale’s Cask.-£- The case of Jou.\ I*. Hade deserves more at tention than it attracts. To our mitui it i» one of the most scandalous affairs in which such a man. could have been caught. Mr. Hals has long had the reputation of close communication with the lobbies, but never, before has ho acknowledged that he sold out his uxfluenee as a Senator to obtain the liber ation from the common jail of a person charged with having committed a crime against the .Go.v.er,p;sient. It is useless to talk of his having been counsel to defend the party in court, it was to keep hiw clear of the court that Mr. lla.de was paid and-ac cepted three thousand dollars ! No such re tainer is ever paid to legal counsel, and the party in arc i* rifted would not have paid it for all the knowledge of law .that -Jojin P. Ijl\di over had. U wis his political and not his legal intUiP.uue that was wanted and that was furnished for a price. Caw anybody now fail to sec .the motive which actuated nt least s »iue of die ilofeiiilor.s of the arbitrary *ysrem ofarrestand imprisonment which Inis brought disgiaeo, not up m nup conn try only, but up on our form of Government. Twenty years ago. a Senator, for such an act an iii.it of whiiih Mr; IJu.E has conlessed him«*olf guilty, would have "been expelled fortwith. We presume, of oounec. that Mr. Male will continue lo favor arbitrary ar rests, the su'peutiian of tlie hehtna corpus, •and ai) like measures, and will slip around by some hack door to liberate in private those whom he denounces in public! £7*.Our Pirate Legislature .met-a* Ilarris burgii on Tuesday.

We all-know with what reluctance our fore fathers took up arms against the British gov ernment anti sought to dissolve their uiiinn wtih the mother country. They petitioned, protested and suffered outrage for .more thah a hundred ■ years ; two passed, .-.way before the iron had sank.deep enough jiito their soul to enui calc their love for the old Union ; and even after blood had been shed the simple recognition of the just rights of the Colonies would have saved the uni«n with. Britain. But passion u-urped the place of reason; The fehef Colonists had “forfeited every right'cxcepc thiifof being hung to the nearest true.” . G .vornors landed on the count, and fulminating proclamations of emancipation to the negroes ou the Chores of the Potomac, proclamations of eonliseatjon, and everv other hellish device that bad then been invented for the purp- so "f goading men into a determined fight fur imlcpenden dence or death, proceeded with sword in one bmid ami lord) in the other, to subjugate three millions of people. Our grandfathers and grandmothers were all rebels, and were made such, not from choice, but hy Vita acts of British rulers. Mr, Lincoln's Adminis tration, in the place of pvoinmg by the les sons of history, has adopted the same blind and fatal policy ; and the fruits are the sumo. “Loyal” inhabitants of the South are driven by deception, wrong and robbery into rebel lion ; while a declaration that the rebels shall not eomo back into the Union on the old terms of compact .but as slaves and vassals, subject to the will of their conquorers, drives them to the alternative o( independence or never-ceasing war, "Wo object, to this, be cause we fear it ia making the restoration of the in any form improbable, if not impossible ; and in that respect is accom plishing the purpose for vfhich the Aboli tionists have been laboring for year*. We object to it also because we see in it the cer tain doom of republican, democratic form of .government • for it n president may dictate local laws controlling the domestic relations of one’State he can another.
