Of Democratic antecedents—one of
those • men who laboring with 'and

sentiments :
RAYMOND, `.II:, April 2 41852.
In past times, say twenty-five years
boo and more, the Methodist, Baptist,
Tree Will Baptist, Christian, and Uni
versalist ministers of this State,. em
bracing nut far from two-thirds.of the
'whole number in the State, were most
ly Democratic in polities. The Con
gregationalists, Presbyterians,a nd Uni
tarians, were mostly Whigs. In those
times many ministers of the Democrat
ic party were active politicians. They
discussed politics in the circles • they
:tuet; voted at the polls, were often
;chosen legislators, made fervent pray
'ers fur the perpetuity and spread of
-out glorious liberties at military re
-Views, Fourth of July celebrations,
and at political conventions. When
Jackson, Van Buren, and others were
candidates for the PreSidency, some
ministers nttended meetings at which
political addresses wcr:e given, and
offered p 1 aver. SI, late as ft:so, at a
political meeting addresed b s't mop
orators ;f the Democratic party, a Min
ister (Jl'ered prayer, which was con
bidered• 'sir valuable that it was •pub
lished in a political paper. guy one
Who read it could but t - ee that. it was
quite political. Democratic ministers
within half a dozen years, have attend-.
td, its members, political conventions
for the nomination of State, county,
and other officers: Even in the pres
ent year, in one county, a minister
Who was the only one that voted with
the Democrats in that part ell the Sta:e,
attended the caucus just befor? the
election„ and was-an active 2:l;riber.
In all l'.!e,e and ether
might. la: !:':tried, there was no cola
plaint that ministers were nleddling
with poi:tie , . \o, no; that was all
very well. They were patriotic, and
"fur their country." - •
. But since 1 :3r) a change has been
taking place. The Democratic party
proving recreant to the true principles
of Democracy as they were maintain
ed in the days of Jefferson, ministers
have left it. The party becoming
prostituted to the upholding of Slave
:ry and to the extension of it, preach
ers have been leaving it, so that at
'present but very few support it. Per
haps out of G5O ministers now in the
state. there ale not fifty that arc of
the Democratic party. Hundreds of
the ministers are opposed to Slavery.
They are f Temperanco, Peace, and
Lilf4Aty. They do nut make these the
subject of their discourses ; they pray
for these in bond:,. and occasionally
some of them make God's vielated law
speak out in tones of thunder. This
is more parlieularly the case on an
nual fast and thanksgiving days. For
merly those days had become seasons
for amusement and feasting. so that
churches obtained but' few hearers.
Now more attend.
sut while ministers have bean Wit
coune, some of the people
have l:een ;n agony. Ministers could
be active in, politics while I)einocrats,
but to be active for the cause of Free
dom, Uh, "that alters the case F' And
such ado, perhaps, NVIIS never heard
on such a subject I,el;sre. "Church
and Stao united!" "Ministers preach
ing politics !" Ministers electioneer
ing !" and the like, have been vocif
erated loud and lono..;.- Editors of
•
political papers have called upon the
people to leave the miniArations of
such politiCal priests, and some of the
people have declared they would not
hear nor help support such ministers.
- But the heavens have not tidien, as
yet.
Quite a number of ministers in the
State have gone into the Know Noth
ing Of this 1 have
nothing to say, as to defending them.
A." little time will show whether the
course was wise or not. .
The cla'ss wholave denounced min
isters for - meddling with politics, as
described • above, and who have left
tneeiings, now feign themselves as
hungry for the 'Word of Life. They
tnay say in public that Slavery must
be let alone ; that the Ftpzitive.Slarp
Act iA a law and must be obeyed ;
they.may attend 'political conventions,
if they are of the Democratic party ;
but •farTher than these 'they must 'not
go. If any know of some such out of
employ', mill they not send them -This

A - TOUCHING CUSTOM.- A common
tuitOm,i? Paris, which impresses' a
stranger iavorably, is that of lifting or
taking off the hat when a funeral pass
e's'. 'A :writer vn this subject relates
the felh;Wing :
. - Some years since, we were one of
that rushing crowd ever pouring up
Broadway. When in front of old St.
rauro, Fill. eyes were attracted by the
appearance of the crew of the French
war veoki4; l Rolle Poule, which then
risitrd lh Trnittql states under the
command' of alsi Prince r
The CreW werein their naval,uniform,
bright and 'beautiful, and were , saun
tering along' seeing sights,
- "All at once they stoPped and form
ed.a. line, faced inward, and,uncover
ekqUisite and touching was
the scene when we discotered in that
thoughtless, . busy; hurrying 'crowd, a
man of, ibreign birth, evidently poor
and. friendless, under whose arm was
a tiny coffin, and by his side the strick
en mother. They were in search of a
burial place for their babe, and were
jostled and:unheeded in that gay tor
rent of humanity, until they met those
'hardy, tempest-toSsed. mariners;; who
on the instant, with bared heads, stood
in silent respect, while the sacred ash
es of the unknown infant were passing.
Such are French .Manners."
The newspaper is* law hook for the
indolent, a seimon for the thoughtful, a
library for the poor. It may stimulate
the miist indifferent, it may also instruct
