ai`The .'retliotlistGeneral Conference at
Indianapolis. has settled the question of the
-'Discipline of the Church," in the mutter of
slavery. The report which gave rise to the
discussion contained a resolution condemn
ing the buying, selling and holding of slaves.
The "Discipline," us it stands, forbids "buy
ing and selling human beings." It was
urged, in opposition to the proceeding, that
slavery is a civil institution alone, not cre•
ated by the church, and not to be destroyed
by the chpreh. Mpass - thiti required a two
third vote, and the vote being yeas 121, nays
95, the proposition to amend was decided in
the negative. On the 30th, an effort was
made to press through a second resolution
of the slavery report, rendering all slave
'holders liable to the Discipline for the sin of
slavery; hut it was finally laid on the table
by a vote of 123 to 92.
Ax rNFORTUNATE FAMILY.—The York'
(Pa.) ihilwate records the dwth, from sui
eide, of Mr. Frederick Latta's, an old and
respectable resident of Windsor township,
in that county. and then adds:—Nearly halfl
a century ago his father committed suicide
by poison. Since that time his brother and I
ghat brother's son hare hung themselves:
end a few years ago his own son drowned
himself. 'th e Jacob Laucks who shot Mr.
Henry Ilgenfritz, of this place, a couple of I
years ago, and is now in the State Lunatic
Asylum, lips a nephew of the Mr. Lnucks I
whose inPlincholy death we now record.—
lie was—what few men have been—the son,
grandson, brother,
,nephese,.. and cousin_aLl
td suicides.
Nfetamvs.—Every few (Lys companies of
Mormons, varying from two to seven hun
dred persons, are noticed as landing at some
of the Atlantic ports, and proceeding, west
ward. It seems that lowa City has been se
lected by the leaders of the 'Church as the
place of rendezvous for some 5,000 of their
adherents, previous to their finally !darting
for Utah,- in July or August. They are
principally recruited from England and Scot
land. The company which arrived at New
'York some months ago are temporarily
lodged in the railroad buildings in lowa
and an eneainpinent of tents has been
formai about two miles from the town,
Wtz AT CONSTITUTEq A RELATICIF:.—A great
deal of nonsense has been talked about the
relationship between Butler and Brooks, as
justifying the outrage committed by the lat
ter. Perbrips some of our readers may be
euriotts to know precisely what this relation
ship is. A letter received from Mr. Brooks
byy-a genticusan of Boston, last February,
says; "My grandfather married Senator But
ier's father's aunt." The closene , s of such
a relationship can only be appreciated by
one who is, like Brooke, "ball a ficutcli
man."

who wrote it, is the serest, safest guide; and
it is my humble Oplaihn,if then and women
will follow its requirements as they can unz
dorstand them, thai they will make long
steps in their progress towards grace and
heaven. We all know that it is the "best
of books"—so entitled by saints who have
left, as well- as the few still on earth. That
it is an inspired work, endorsed by angels
and men, and the only book that bears the
stamp of God himself—oven sceptics have
admitted.
What's the use of , controversies on reli
gious subjects:then? They are. always bit
ter and never do justice to religion. There
arediffercnt ways of getting to heaven,- (I
menu 'apart from the one only way of re
demption through the blood of the Saviour,)
and men and women will pursue such roads
as suit their different views. Let all keep
in sight the Lamb—Rim who suffered on
the cross—who voluntary came front heaven
to bear the sins of the world , and who en
dured more than span ever has.

What's"the use of controversy? of personal
spleen and sophi.tical reasoning? It is ad
mitted on all side., in every persuasion of
christians, that there is only one way of in
heriting eternal life—that way, in this land
of gospel light and privilege is known—or
ought to bc—to all.

Education, knowledge, "skilled industry"
—are the products of the bible; the natural
results from its perusal and acquaintance;
and, "in conclusion," I would advise all
controversialists on religious suttiects (and I
include those who have lately exhibited their
c/loris in the Spy) to peruse that work more
closely, nut only to benefit themselves, but
for the good of the rest of mankind.

noisy band, who make some pretension to
respectability, and eve n standing in society;
but I think such have very much overrated
themselves; for how any one possessing the
least possible amount of self respect could
become ()connected with such a gang, is really
more than I can comprehend. Their con

rently becoming bolder and more impudent
at e% cry repetition of their performances.—
They are, however, somewhat progressive,
and now, in addition to their usual infernal
noise, sing ninny indecent songs accompa
nied by corresponding off-'band remarks,
supposed to be witty.
The object of this lime-honored and very
respectable organization appears to be to ex
tort money or whisky, or at least a treat of
some kind, from the victim of their kind con-
Nideration. Generally they succeed in their
design and retire much pleased with their
success and very much to the relief of all
those near enough to be annoyed by their
musk.
For their last performance, however, 'I am

Now, Mr. Editor, as a means of abolish

by their nocturnal visits would allow them
to depart unnoticed and unrewarded. Bat
if this plan should not have the desired ef
fect, I would earnestly urge that the penalty

Tut: Sioux WAR PARTV.—The party of
Sioux 'Braves' who were last week dancing
over a Chippewa scalp, along the Minnesota
river, had been out seven tbiys, when they
came across a solitarY eitippetri his
little lroy, engaged in taking
up their traps.
The tether they shot down, but the son es
caped by fleeing to the house of a white roan
in the vicinity.
Awrrt.—lt is said that to raise the
"spirit of southern chivalry," it is only no
(qv.:try to shout "Summon-her." Its ap
pc:trailer is instant in the shape of a guttn
pereha bludgeon.
Day-We see that arrangement% have been
, made by a hieh parties who wish to see the
land of the Ittoovrsr Cosessr can go at one
time. A stage leaves Tyrone every Wed
! iosday morning. We would suggest that
I persons who cannot go themselves would
appoint a committee. It will be a beautiful
and interesting trip. and from' all we hear
we believe that visitors will be well satisfied
and highly gratified. It is mach better to
settle in our own Slate, where it is healthy
and a good -Nish market, than emigrating
to the far west. It is claimed that this is
as good as any western land, being limestone
soil, and being, underlaid with bituminous
coal. Parties eon easily tangly themselves,
and we reccommend them to go.

FOUND DeowNEn.—The body of a man
'named L. W. One, suptsesed to be from' El
mira, New York, was found in the Canal
above the Bridge, yesterday, about noon.
It is thought he fell in during the night
previous. From the •evidence before the
Coroner's Jury, as called by deputy Coro
nor Hunter, we believe him to have been a
man of steady habits and one genemlly . es
teemed by those who knew him. Several
accidents of this kind have occurred at the
seine place, heretofore. Over three dollars
were found on the person of Mr. Giles; and
a certificate of deposit from the Columbia
Bank, for seventy-five dollars, one dollar in
gold and various papers which he had given
to a gentleman named Spriggs front his
neighborhood; a week before, were shown
to the jury. :Verdict—accidentally drOwned.
Ma. Tcnxit's CONCERT.—We know it will
gratify the citizens of our town to be ad

but with the faculties of the auditor. Any
person that hears him sing "The Old Arm

SatacE.—The Cecilia Musical Association,
at its soiree, on Thursday evening, per
formed admirably:. All the members who
appeared did well, and the ckbutanis proved
satisfactorily, the skill of their teacher as
well as their own musical powers. We un
derstand this society will shortly give another
grand concert, when even better things may
be expected. Our Musical Association will
favorably compare with those of any other
place.

the Rev. John Coffin Nazro will lecture from

mine and I 'claim the fight to utter them,
however humble my - position may be, al
though Mr. Erskine, bi li Ts Jotter, seems' to
say that none but the. "nistry has a right
to think on subjects oft lie - kind. Now, Mr.
Editor, I have been tght to believe that
the essential elemen t - the distinguishing
feature oP Protestantism, 16 the right of pri
vate judgment in questions of theology, and
I hold, that the man Who. denies this right
to the humblest, even though he be a "Bo
rough 'Squire," repudiates the Protestant
principle, and attempt4'to set up a theologi
cal oligarchy; and if this principle be emir
tied out in its full cxtoht in a country like
this, vrtmld soon establish dogmas more po
tent than the thunders bf the rittican. Un
der 'the present eircumetanees, Mr. Erskine
i essurnes a very high pcaition.
Let it be examined for a moment; first,
be sends a request to; attend his church,
why? because - ha sernion will. "cross my
path." I attend,mccoritingly. I happened
to think that his reprefentations of a man
of great intellectual poWer and moral worth,
it
were unfair, and say so a newspaper, using
most respectful langn sin stating my ob
jections. The next w k is spent by Mr.
Erskine in hunting upAvideneo by . - which
1 4 6
he ,expects to natural , rue, and not sue
seeding as well-as ' ted-rhe assnmes ,
the dictatorship, and vtualiv says, lion
dare you,.a mere "Boroireh 'SqUire," pretend
to call in question anything that I, a man
of the sanctuary—a - vicegerent of heaven—
a
teacher of the true faith—clothed with the
panoply of rightooniness, covered all over
with zeal, and labelled' "Orthodox," may
please to say: it is your place, sir, to 'sit at
the feet of Gamaliel, and ]earn wisdom of
me. Well, Mr. Erskine, it may be pre
sumption in me, but I cannot help it. You
undertook to ?criers...44- you say not to re
view, but merely to ratite the moral princi
ple of certain lectures, and as I thought and
still think, did injustice to Dr. Elder, and I
said so; and see whatla tempest I have
misled. Mr. Erskine, after a great deal of
labor, has succeeded in getting a few ex
tracts .from certain lectures of the Dr.'s, de
livered at Allentown, Banton, and I believe
Baltimore, in which 64 discovers an im
mense amount of heresj. With those lec
tures I hare nothing to do; ft is the ono' de
livered here, that, demands our attention;
but Mr. E. insists that the same doctrines
were inculcated here, A elsewhive. Now
1 1 .
suppose I grant it—wh then? why, I say
that even in the .extra given—unfair a
mode as that is to get a scan's - meaning,
there is no• terrible heresy. Dr. Elder in
speaking of the Reformation, it is true, at
tributes its success to, e nlightened state
of society in England, iny. and' else
where;previous to the Assaf Lutlie,Wiek
'life, Buss, 3lelanethon and others, and
doubts whether they . coati have been sue
ceasful unless the wirndirisf err peopla had
previously been prepared. to some extent,
for the advent of so great,* +change' in their
theology. I think Mr:Erskine, himself,
will hardly deny this. Sup be wets to

All ecclesiastical -writers, "the witnesses for
tinth.". Now here wo see a sect of -re
formers who existed for nearly 300 - years
before Luther; and `ue genuine christianity
has always been the ea-worker of the arts
and sciences, is it too much to say that a
groat deal of Luthefis success depended
upon the collateral aid derived from those
people? Ido not understa.nd, even by the
extracts picked out of Dr. - Elder's lectures,
anything like a repudiation of the bible or
the efforts of Luther and others, but merely
this idea, that the efforts of the reformers
would have been camparativelyfrnitlass, but
from the fact that owing to the skill which
had been intermixed with the industry of
the people of those times, a train of thought
' had been aroused which prepared them to
grasp, as a reality, the sublime truths ut
tered and taught by the reformers. Now, 1
Mr. Erskine may say that the reformation
was a miracle, but, I apprehend, he would
laugh at such a thought were it not neees
sarj to keep up his position. I am very
Tree to admit the intervention of Divine
Providence, and to my mind there is a gran
deur in the thought, that I do not think. Mr.
Erskine with all his superior knowledge can
realize; it is this, that by the power of that
overruling principle which we call Provi
dence, I see the final .overthrow of all evil,
and the establishment of a tiniversal reign
of holiness andlutppiness; and this I regard
as the crowning glory of the christinn sys
tem. and without it, let me say reverently,
I look upon it all as a grand failure.
But suppose Dr. Elder did' teach such
monstrous heresy; does not Mr. Erekirm t 6

But seriously, I wish now to ask the can
did reader, which of the two following sys
tems is the mast likely to encourage the
spread of infidel sentiments—that which
encourages the culture and development of
the faculties God has graciously given us, by
advancing in science, literature and the arts;
by seeking out and apprying chemical agents
in fertilizing the soil and causing the earth
to bud and blossom as the rose; in planning
out iisefulinventions to aid in the perform
ance of the drudgery of everyday life; look
ing through all these agencies of our own,
forlfeavep to crown the efforts of man with
*a choicest blessings and thus making the
earth, when divested of its most cruel bur
dens a paradise;—or that system which says
—"By the decree of God for the manifesta
tion of his glory, some men and angels are
predestinated unto everlasting life and others
fore-ordained to everlasting death?"
"These lien and angelstbus predestinated
and fore-ordained are particularly and un
changeably designed, and their number is
so eertatn that it cannot be either increased
or diminished."
"Those of rnankind-thataripredestinateil
unto life, God, before the foundation of the
world was laid, according to his eternal and
immutable purpose, and secret council
and good pleasure of his will, bath chosen
in Christ unto everlasting glory, out of his
mere free grace and love, without any fore
sight or faith or good works, or porseverenoe
in either of them, or any other thing in the
creature, as conditions or CllllBOB moving him
thereunto; all to tFe praise of his glorious
grace."
"AS God bath "appointed the elect unto
glory, so bath he, by the eternal and most
free purpose of his will, fore-ordained all the
means thereunto; wherefore they who are
elected being fallen in Adam, are redeemed
by Christ, are effectually called unto faith in
Christ.; by his spirit working in doe sea
son, are justified, sanctified, and kept by
his power through Stith unto salvation.—
Neither are any other redeemed by Christ,
effectually called, justified, adopted, • Ponca
fied and saved - but the elect only."
"The rest of mankind, God was pleased,
according to the unsearchable counsel of his
own will, whereby he extendeth or with
holdeth mercy as he pleaseth, for the glory
a his sovereign power over his creatures, to
pass by, and to ordain them to dishonor and
wrath fur their sin to the praise of his
glorious justice." See Confession of faith
of the Presbyterian Church, Chapter 3, sec.
1,2, 3, 4 and 0.
"Elect infants, dying in infancy, are re
generated and gored by Christ through the
Spirit, who worketh when and where and
how he pleaseth. So, also, are all other
elect persons, who are incapable of being out
wardly called by the ministry of the word;

have some common opers'fions of the spirit
yet they never come to Christ and therefore
teeter% and now imp he can got half a
dozen who will say that he represented the
Dr. fairly. Well, I don't doubt it, but all I
hate to say is, they are exceedingly loose in
their orthodoxy, or it may be they had not
"knowledge sqfflcient" to detect the heresy.
Until Mr. Erskine who did not hear the lec
ture, pointed it out to them.
Mr. Erskine .must possess remarkable
powers of understanding, for it appears he
understood Dr. Elder, not hating heard him,
much better than those who did hear him.
In fact, he says he understood- him better
than I did; this I won't . pretend to deny, but
he intimates that: he understood him better
than any who were there. What a pity it
is that those clergymen and elders who sat
aud.listened with such interest to the lec
tures were not, aware that they'were drink
ing in heresy as the "ox drinketh in water."
It would be well to place a guard around
those weak lambs of the flock, so that they

If you can find better fatalism ' than 'The
above extracts show , shoul d . be glad-to see
it, and I-apprehend that nothing 'has done
more to foster andencourage infidelity, than
the preaching of the foregoing beautiful
doctrines. It was this that drove 'the 'philo
sophical mind of Voltaire to doubt and faint
ly to discard as fictitious the whore: Chris
tian system; and it is tlfhtthat has driven:
thousands to - madness and suicide, and them

of justice, thatitrequiresniore nerve than'
most divines are master of, to preach them
at all.
Why is it that Presbyterianism has not
made more rapid progress in this coun
try than it has? Surely not for any want
of talent and respectability in its ministry,
for in these respects it is fully . equal to any
other denomination, and-its form of govern
ment is as republican as we can well con
ceive au& bodies to be. What then has
kept it back, whilst Methodism, which in its
early stages here. had neither the wealth,
power, or talent that its older sister boasted,
has gone far in advance of Calvinism in,-all
these. respects? There can be but one an
swer and tbat is that its doctrines as set
forth in the above extracts are so—at 'war
with every principle of justice and human
ity, that the mind naturally recoils from it,
and seeks something snore in accordance
with the teachings of him who "spoke as
never man spake. '
It will be seen by the above that Mr. Ere
kine's.ground of not having invited me to
his church is _hardly, tenable; 'also, that his
reference to Dr. -Elder's lecture being a sec
ondary coneidess*is, • isiiardly - borne 'out,'
from the fact VII tTsewritten invitafoas
contemplated that as the primary object of
the discourse.
I now wish to say herethat if Mr. Erskine
wishes to procure a lot of funny anecdotes, I
shall be happy to furnish him with several,
cut out of newspapers aid laid by as very
good ones. The style of my friend is much
to be admired, but low as my office appears
to be, it is two high for me to deal in per
sonalities, and I cannot consent to introduce
any word into my communication which
would detract from the position to -which I
have been twice called .by the suffrages of
my fellow citizens. -With regard to Rev.
Abel. C. Thomas, all I have to say is, that
he has been much longer i (and quite as fa
vorably) known to this community as
Mr. Erskine, and as he is abundantly -able
to take care of himself,. I shall not volunteer
a defence of him. To use the language of
an eccentric and very zealous divine, who for
merly lived in this place, "the red marks of
hit ecclesiastical claws are quite visible in
the face of Rev. Dr. Ely, (a high dignitary
in Mr. Erskine's communion) and if he
(Mr. E.) wishes to encounter him, I have no
doubt such an opportunity present it
self at an early day. I said nothing about
ministers attending lectures in my letter, nor
do I insist on their going, but if they do not
attend, and after the lecturer is gone, they
put what I conceive to be wrong construc
tions upon the lecture, I think I have a right
to say so.
Mr. Erskine says I have no moral stand
ing in the community; that being the case it
was hardly necessary for him to inflict three
pondrous columns on the readers of the Spy.
Ile also intimates that I did not stick to the
truth in my former article; of this 1 leave
the reader to draw his conclusions, especially
as to the primary or secondary object of his
reference to Dr. Elder's lecture. But this
communication is already longer than I in
tended, but, I think, not quite as long as
Mr. Erskine's; but *bat it lacks in measure

-7 7 ; ' • " -TOE. 7,
Mn. - EDITOR:-.111 . your paper of last week I
noticed an article over the initials "E. F," in
which the writer starts out in the following
wonderful manner:—"Who is Fiat Justitia
that would correct the errors of the pulpit,
and set in judgment on John Calvin, he."
Sure enough Mr- Editor, who is this Fiat
Justitia that he would dare in this nineteenth
century,..to open his mouth or employ his pen to
"correct the errors of the pulpit?" that would
dare in this land of liberty, where freedom
of speech and freedom of the press are rights
inviolable, to say aught against the errors of
that awful and that mighty power—the pulpit?
A man taking such authority upon himself,
your correspondent "E. F.," impliddly says,
I should be stricken down, bound hand and
foot, and cast away; should he Sumner-an/
'with a gutta-percha cain, and laid insensi
ble at your feet. Truly, this is charitable,
and in perfect accordance with Presbyteri
anism, as manifested by its teachers, for
several years, in this borough.
But again; a little further on in this same
article, "E. F." relieves himself in the fol
lowing manner.—" The persecution of the
Quakers and, other religionists, it is true,
was 41 blot on the character of our Puritan
Fathers, which all now lament and regret;
but how much is the world indebted for the
profound discovery that 'this - persecuting spirit
was a result of the operation of the catechism
and not attributable to the intolerant - spit* of
of the age." This, Mr. Editor, is equally wise
and profound. The persecution of the Qua
kers, we are told, was not the result of the
operation of the catechism but is attributable
to the intolerant spirit of - the age. This
solves the question at once, in the opinion of
my friend "E. F." but for myself, I must
confess, that I am not so easily satisfied.—
Instead of being an - explanation to, it only
confirms the assertion of Fiat Justitia; be.
cause every eject must have a cause and as
that intolerant spirit above referred to is an
effect, pray what was the eau* I incline
to the opinion that the main and' principle
cause of that intolerant spirit was the result I
of the doctrines and dogmas believed by the
Puritan £atkc ,ai etahodied in their cate
chism ntrd.'the Minims and bigotry , with
which they maintained them. And if "E.
F." ira plain, sensible man, and posted' up
ip the history of our country, as he pretends
to be, he cannot and will not deny it. Even
to this day, where the doctrines of the cate
chism are taught and believed, this same
spirit of persecution is rampant among its
advocates. To prove this point I would
most respectfully refer "E. F." to his own
article of last week, in which be attempted,
by his defiant manner, to suppress the free
dom of speech of any person who might dare
to say a word against the errors of the Pres
byterian pulp it . I would also most kindly
refer "E. F. " as another instance of perse
cution to the review of Dr. Elder's lectures,
by the Revs Mr. Erskine, in which the lat-
ter gentleman attempted to excite a feeling
of prejudice against Dr. Elder, because be
bad the audacity to show to the public the
convictions of his own mind. Why did not
the Rev. Mr. Mecaskey, the Rev. Mr. Men
ges, or the Rev. Mr. Clawges—gentleupn
who heard the lecture of Dr. "Elder--do
nonnee it as advocating infidel notions?
surely it was because that' intolerant spirit,
was not there.
One thing more and I have done; "E.
F.," at the close of his article rays, that he
ease "heard or read of a little .dog, which,
alarmed perhaps at its own shadow ran out
fronajaa kmmel and furiously barked at the
moon; bat the moon shone on in all its calm
and"pliciddignity,-smdisturbed and unstop.
