The little educntion nnd experience wc

what Mr. Lincoln is now attempting to

from tho London Chronicle, n paper of de

Mk!." Faithfully olrrdietit as true disci
ples of the 1'rinee of J'eace, the founders
of our model inktitutJons guaranteed 10
themselves and their descendants freedom
wf speech and of conscience. Thcgcnu!no
t-pirit of Liberty, as well as that of Chris
tianity, are receiving a new interpretation,
if they do not threaten to link into the
ocan ol' devolution, nnd finally Atheism
nnd Despotism.
The bladi hour of madness seems to
have descended upou us, to cover us as
with a pall Irom tho light and influence
of Cod's holy religion. We look back up
on tho indistinct phantismagoria of tho
past as io remembers only the monstrous
conceptions of a di eam. Our spiritual ad
visers have arrued themselves with carnal
weapons, which they flourish as lustily as
the tvildef t barbarian. "What nioro could
tho heathen do ?" For the past Tour iveeks
wc have heard nothing but war.wtr.war
with equal vindiUivcne from the sa
;:rcd desk, tho bar of justice, the rostrum,
and the corners of tho street.
When we enter the Temples of peace,
the first thing wo hear is a prayer offered
iip for the success of our army, the gtofy(?)
of our m urdoreJ Icllo.v men upon the
IwUjO field of sectional hate the waging
of which may soon provo a death Mow to
Christianity and Liberty. How ridiculous
it must sacn to -every leasooablecreature,
to listen to the prayers of our Northern
and Southern christians, each priying for
the triumph of cur arms, nnd each strive
ing to exterminate the other under the
plea of Justice and Cuhistumti.
We ennnot compreln nd hew tlie " God
T)f Rattles " can successfully dispose of the
petitions of those conflicting partics.unless
he ignores tho prayers of both, and per
mits riyht and juttke to asseft their domin
ion once more, among those who are
proving so rwkless and disloyal to both
their God and their country.
We can give no better solution ot the
present enigma of Christianity and Liberty
than the following which we take from
tho Baltimore Sun:
" We tdk of civilization, and in a sin

Kepoys in the Indian insurrection. Yet
instantly upon the ebullition of their hos
tiliy to their lite brethri of tho South,
Mio Northern press and pulpit cry aloud
together for the extermination of the
Southern people, ingenuity exhausts itself
in devising the moil terrible and remorse

the diabolical work. The eager lcirc that

proves that like murder, the deed was
fo.lt to be too revolting to bo long obout.
Humanity could not be trusted with a
prolong task of massacre, rapme atfl
universil defast-ation.
What is here related" or "our )uh'(
and pies es," will apply 'ith epuat truth
to the South.
Wo have but one suggestion to make in
this matter, so far a; onr religious fellow
ui:ij jitknutvli-dgcmeiit ot secession, nave
said "There are certain farts in the South
possessed by the general government for
tho protection of the Stales lroin foreign
invasion they vero never built for tiio
cocrciou ol tl.e people and as at present
tlieio is some danger of a riotous attack
on them, I will withdrawal troops from
them." By this means he would take
Irom tii o cause of recession nil the charm
ol'ilsring; Lin would remove that aspct ot
heroism which arises when hot South
erners defy Northern aggression. By say
ing, "I havo no idea ot sending a single ,
' soldier into the Scuth, though 1 still con-;
isidertlio Slates as not seceeded," tho
j people in the Confederate States would;
! say, "Now that all apprehension of lorco
! is gone, havo we gained Ly secejsion '!"
' Levies would havo been disbanded, the
war fever would havo subsided, and the
border States would have remained iu tho
Union. But by talking of coercion Mr.
Lincoln kept up a C3i:tiiiuul fever in tho
South, enabled the Montgomery govern
ment tc exercise a despotism, and to con -centrato
its energies on military prepara
tion, and forced
hostility to tho
erv lenuwarto lo tho same. let us, as
one man. unite in one urnnd effort to pro
vent the shedding of fraternal blood, and
