Wednesday Morning, Nov. 28, 1866,
The ".MwmKi."
We wore censured by our neighbor,
Inst weok, for referring to tho course
of the Methodist Advocates. AVc sup
posed that it was our duty as a journ
alist to call the attention or tho pub
lie to the fact, that a leuding journal,
professing to be tho organ of a largo
class of roligionibts, was actually ad
vocating tho election to Congress of
two loading Infidels and avowed dis-
unionists the ono white and tliooth
er black ; whilo another of the same
litter was advocating the social equal
ity of the whito and negro races. We
may be n little nervous upon these
two points, and unnecessarily alarmed
at the bold allegations ot these organs
but we belong to the class that pre
pares for war in the time of peace,
and therefore merely called the atten
tion of our readers to the monstrosi
ties these modern Judas sheets were
about perpetrating upon the people
We publish the two articles referred
to this week. The Bishops named-
Campbell, Roberts and Payno are
negroes. The editor, however, states
that "a reasonable amount of sense
and piety and ton men, could settle
this question in an hour." This is an
admission that up to this time these
chips have possessed neither, and
therefore, they design to amalgamate
with infidels and negroes in the fu
ture, to acquire theso necessary attri
butes. This is a bad confession
make after a trial of a hundred years.
What blind old fogies the Wostlcy',
must havo been ! What a pity they
did not have tbo illuminating rays of
theso two Advocates to assist them to
increaso their "senso and piety !"
we find the flank movemont mado
by these raiders to bo generally ap
proved, we will notify tho men of
"sense und piety" to put their guns i
position.
Now, if any individual will tell us
why a professing Christian should ad
vocato tho election of infidels, or
man brim full of "loyalty" seek tl;
elevation of avowed diBunionists to
positions high in the Government, w
will know exactly how to attut-k th
hypocrites who havo been braying re
ligion, loyalty and negro equality for
the past few years. As the case no
stands, we are terribly befuddled.
Tho social equlity of the two races
in Church affaire, as advocntedby the
St. Louis organ, is not half us incom
prehensible and unnatural an alliance
as that advocated by tho New York
brother, which may perhaps suit tho
tasto of a large portion of his North
western brethren, who have never
seen a negro. We hold that the adop
tion of negro equality in church af
fairs, is not half so repugnant as that
cf political equality. If any or all of
the religious denominations sec fit to
come down to this point, those to
whom it is unnatural and repugnant
can withdraw, and remain srpnrate
and distinct; but in a political rela
tion tho negro would bo as potent at
the ballot and jury boxes as the "white
trabh," and would adhcro to it ns ten
aciously as tho seven years itch. We
must exclaim, from these things good
Lord deliver ns.

Tli shysters and srullywns who
now lend and control tho litunion
party are as prolitio in hatching and
propagating schemes ot political uo
baiiehcry, as a dog is in producing
eas. The glorious feast they enjoyed
uring the reign of A. L., by plunder-
ng tho Treasury and tho peopje, to
torward thoir infamous schemes ol
party success and consequent disunion,
has received a serious cheek sinco the
accession of Andrew Johnson to tho
Presidential Chair and Mr.' McCul
lough to the Treasury. Theso Provi
dential changes disconcortod the
Kumpers for a whilo. Defeat at the
then approaching election stared thorn
in tho faoo, unless they could concoct
some schemo by which they could, as
heretofore, corrupt the people. John

lough in tho Treasury wrts a Bull Run
to them. They tried for months to
remiin their lost position. Scouts

nothing but Quaker-gnus in position

assault, and Bull Run No. 2 was the
result. This ground was abandoned
Money must be had to carry the dec
. a . 1 1 . 1 t
tions. Six liunUrea inousana aouurs
was the sum agreed upon. The routo
to Richmond (tho Treasury) was
viewed and reviewed. Tho elections
were coming, and tho patriotic shouts
of "On to Richmoud" (tho Treasury)
reverberated from every quarter of
loyaldom. The Bull Run route was
decided to be impracticable. The
Wildornoss routo (Seward's Depart
ment) was next examined. Tho en
ginocr reported that it would take all
summer, and then probahly Kiclunond
(the Treasnry) could not bo reached
nntil too late for the election. The
Shenandoah Valley routo (Navy Do
partmcnt) was pronounced too great
a circle, and would take too long to
awinir around it. Tho election of
loynl Congressmen was at stake, and
the money must be raised. J ho
Christian Commission was approached
through Rev. James Harlan, Secretary
of the Ittorior, who promised to lur-
nish ono half the sum required. He
stated that ho had the power to sell
eight hundred thousand acres of In
dian lands, for which lie could got one
dollar nnd twenty-five cents an acre
now, if ho could succeed in cheating
tho Indians out ot twenty-nvo cents
an acr6, ho would close tho contract
A universal shout went np of "On to
Richmond." (cheat the Indians j) tho
sale was mado; but, to tho chagrin of
loyaldom, tho Government proclaimed
the salo n fraud. No money yet. Had
for tho commission, but bully for tho
Indians. Strategy was now brought
into requisition. The last ditch was
approached. Every fortification was
flanked, and tho money 8000,000
strong was raised bj 150 loyal mem
bers of Congress voting themselves
4,000 extra pay, which they used as
an electioneering fund.
High M'rirt.
We call the attention of our readers
to an article on our first page entitled
"High Price of Living," taken from
Porncy's Press. This is a remarknblo
articlo, for several reasons: One is,
tho channel through w hich it finds its
wayto the public; and anothor, that
one of tho authors (Forney)of "thiev
ing high prices," as ho properly calls
them, should, in this truthful manner,
upbraid himself and his confederates.
If this is not crucifying and putting
to 6hame tho politicul vagabonds who
arc devouring the country nnd its
inhabitants, we know not what is.
But why did not tho Tress talk this
way before tho election f Why was
not tho bread, butter, match, milk,
stamp and tax story rehearsed before
as well as after tho election ? Wo
fear that a stray calf has jumped into
the editorial pasture of tho Press.
Forney is good at slandering others,
but he seldom goes back on himself
in this truthftil manner. Ilo asks:
I tlirr. any an.r mon any ft nonnd f 'u
trr, formerly Mild at 12 to II rent, .hould now
folch 70 to lb. nr wtiy 1(1 to 12 nrnt, fthotitd ha
rharjprd for a quart of milk, whib ooft 4 to aoent
brfora the war?
We answer
Nothing in the world,
except the teachings and the practices
of your party. Put tho Democratic
party in power, and the Union will
soon bo restored ; money, instead of
rags, will become the circulating me
dium ; and the stamp and tax-gatherers
will becomo ns searco as before
the war. Your party is unfit to gov
a freo country, as has been demon
strated in a thousand instances within
the past six years.
Loyal Vlergymrtu
Tho Rev. Dr. Pressly, of Pittsburg,
ono of tho leading divines of the Uni
ted Presbyterian denomination in wes
tern Pennsylvania, has just been ex
pelled from the ministry for "inhuman
treatment of his wife and children, in
decent and blasphemous languago,
and for having illicit intercourse with
a portion of the femnlo members of
his congregation," Wo wonder if a
heavier charge could bo brought
against a New York Fivo Pointer ?
The Rev. John Douglas has also
camo to grief, having been censured
by the church officiary for general im
morality. What the specific charges
wcro wo have not learned. We ob
serve by our western exchanges that
these Wo gay and festive "cusses"
havo for several years past been very
"loynl," delivering lectures nnd stump
ing that section of tho Stnto for tho
candidates put forth by tho party con
trolled by "grand moral ideas." At
Franklin, says tho Spectator, they de
nounced Democrats and sinners terri
bly, and insisted that "Copperheads"
should bo expelled from the Church
for disloyal practices. Nice chaps to
talk about and denounce thoir neigh
bors.
We may bo called to an account for
this expose by some "loyalists, nnd
charged with assailing religion ; but
as wo have good authority (seo Mat
thew, XV, 0, 7, M , also XXIII, 13,
14, 15, and 23 to 33,) for denouncing
theso wolves in sheep's clothing, we
feel like warning tho public against
their insidious wiles. Tho great Apos
tlo, Tsui, seems, from the warning ho
gave, to have liau mem Hanging
around his flock, or anticipated that
they would arise, because in first Tim
othy, VI, 1 to 5, he depicts an Aboli
tion clergyman so minutely that every
reader of the IViblo cannot help but
discover them. And if the express
command given "from such with
draw thyself is not heeded by lliotte
who tako revelation for their guide,
tho Kallocks, Presclys, and his brim
stone highness, will rnn things to suit
themselves.

of Boston showed this in demanding

His popularity at Philadelphia sur
passed that ol all his delegation, and
of all other delegations. So would it
be in his district. Gerrit Smith' was
triumphantly elected years ago. It
would be a far less step to-day to elect
Frederick Douglass. We shall thus
answer tho taunt of tho rebels, here
and South, that we do not wish for
equal rights for ourselves. The abo

see him at Albany if he cannot go to
Washington. But the last is tho place
whero he must yet stntid, and the first
leads thither. In this appeal to em

preaching tho wholo Gospel, which
can and never will cease contending
till the policy and tho represcutativos
of mnn in every post of duty shall rec
ognize its laws nnd conform to its
God-ordained requirements."
That will do for the Slate. Now
for the Church. Tho following is
from the St. Louis Central Advocate.
in rcferonce to a proposed union with
the African Church :
"Tho question of the union of these
two bodies should bo discussed witn
calmness nnd common senso. Preju
dices should be dismissed and a tru
Christian spirit cultivated. We have
conversed with intelligent ministers
of tho African Church, and have trie
to seo and understand thoir wants and
fears. We had a pleasant co.ivorsa
tion with Bishop Canipboll on this
question, nnd we havo often tnlked
with our old personal menu, itcv. ir,
Revels. ith a full conviction ol Hi
importance of the question, and with
its diilieuiues, we venture somo sug
gestions which have grown up in ou
own mind after studying the matter
in all of its bearings.
"Conversing recently with Bishop
Ames on this question, we were glad
to find that wo agreed on tho main
points of a union that would be hon
orablo to both Churches. We do not
wish to embarrass the question by
thrusting upon our friends any theor
ies, nor mere speculations ; we prefer
to give what we conceive to bo a fair,
practicable plan of agreement, which
we submit to our readers nnd friends
with a sincere conviction that the
Methodist Episcopal Church ought in
some way efficiently to aid her weaker
sister, and both parties ought to bo
unitod. ne propose tho following
basis of union, not as on authority in
the case, but humbly desiring to do
good to all :
"1. Let commissioners bo Appointed
by tbo General Conferonco of each
Church, with full power to form a
union.
"2. Tho African Church would, we
think, bo willing to accept of our book
of Discipline, believing, as they do,
our doctrines and adhering to the
main features of our government. We
are all Methodists; we have our Bish
ops, as our chief pastors, elected by
our respective General Conferences.
We have elders and deacons, Quarter
ly and Annuul Conferences. There
noed not bo the slightest disputo about
theso matters.
"3. Tho Bishops of tho African
Church should still be Bishops, in fact
and of right. They could not with
self respect submit to any kind of con
ditions that would in tho lenst impair
thoir character as general siiprrintcn
dents. These Bishops, including our
own Roberts, should lo made uucon
ditional Bishops. They are men of
common senso. Their adherence to
their present orgnnir.ation shows that
they are impelled by an ardent love
of their pooplo to endure hnidshijis
as good soldiers of Christ. Lt tho
conditions which confine Bishop
Roberts to Africa be stricken out.
Ami let him stand simply as a Bishop
of the M. E. Church, whose residence
may be in Liberia.
"The Bishops ot the united Church
should meet in annual council and ar
range the work, according to their
Unctions in the law of the Church ro
gntding men. Wo go for Period
(quality before the law. Tho Alrican
Mcthtist Episcopal Church mil!

reasonable amount of senso and piety
to accomplish this work.

recollected that some time ago four
citincnsof South Carolina wore arrest

Sickles, and having been tried by a
military court, under the ordors of
that officer, wore sentenced to doath.
