TIIK CHRISTIAN'S WALK.
I walk as one who knows that he is treading
A stranger soil;
As one round whom a serpent-world is spreading
Its subtle coil.
I walk as one but yesterday delivered
From a sharp chain;
Who trembles lest the bond so newly severed
Be bound again.
I walk as one who feels that he is breathing
Ungenial air;
For whom, as wiles, the tempter still is wreathing
The bright and fair.
My steps, I know, are on the plains of danger,
For sin is near;
But looking up, I pass along, a stranger,
In haste and fear.

For the Gazette.
The Churches and Slavery.
Messrs Editors: —lnasmuch as, in these
times especially, the question is frequently
asked and debated, "Is slavery a morai
evil, and ougbt it to be got rid ot, now
thai there is an opportunity of doing so
in a constitutional way?" aud inasmuch
as many good and intelligent people
desire light upon this question, not be
ing exactly able to determine it satistac
torily tor themselves, for the want ot books
and time at hand tor such purposes, I have
thought it would be an advantage to them
to know what is the testimony upon this
subject of the different principal deootni
nations of religion in our country, as ex
pressed through their chief or General
Assemblies, Synods and Conferences. It
will be remembered that these bodies ex
press the views of the denominations re
spectively, and exercise over them chiel
I control. That the ministers comp sing
them are delegates chosen from the sutior
dinate bodies ol ministers throughout the
land, and chosen in view of their uiatusit.
in years, deep piety, general learning, and
especially because of their thorough ae
quaintance with the Divine wor It w-n
be perceived at once that the views ot such
men are entitled to more than ordinary
weight upon this and all oiher mural que*
tions, and this, not only because of the
considerations above named, but because of
the tact that they are not politicians but
ministers, and so not personally sway d by
hope of gain, or office, or emolument of
j any kind whatsoever The testimony of
other denominations than those that follow
might be given, but not having them just
now at hand, the following will sutiiee as
they represent the whole. Let it be oh
served that the following is not only an
annunciation ot their sentiments, but eon
tains also their recommendations to the
members of the different churches Then
let it be re uembered also that St Haul,
wiitirig to the membership, says in He
brews I3th chap 7th ver., u Remember
them which have the rule over you, (or as
it is translated in the margin, 'wito are the
guides,') whose faith follow." &c \nd
then in the 17th verse oi the sunt chap
ter, "Obey theiu which have the rule over
you and submit, yourselves." Ami tie n
! also the language of Christ to the inmts
j try in Luke lU 10, "He that heareth you
| heareth me."
We subjoin first the testimony of
The Presbyterian Church. 0 S.
Through its General Assembly held at
Newark, N J , in May last, which is as
follows, (.2 ;
" lti the opinion of the General Assem

stances of cur times, the state of our court

uiand a plain declaration of its sentiments
I upon the question of slavery, in view of
its preseut aspects in this country.
" From the earliest period ot our church, !
the General Assembly delivered utiequivo- |
cal testimonies upon this subject which it
wilt be profitable now to reaffirm "
In 1(87 tiie Synod of New York and
Philadelphia recommended it to alt t> eir
people to use the most prudent measures
consistent with the interest and state of
civil society in the countries wheie they
| live, to procure essentially the abolition ol
| slavery in America.
Iu 1795 the General Assembly assured
| all the churches under their care, that they
j view with the deepest concern any vestiges
I of slavery which may exist in our country.
| In 1815 the General Assembly expressed
; their regret that the slavery of the Alri
i cans and their descendants still continues
j in so many places.
In 1818 the General Assembly said,
| 44 We consider the voluntary enslaving of
! one portion of the human race by another,
as a gross violation of tne most precious
t and sacred rights of human nan re, as ut
I terly inconsistent with the law of God,
which requires us to love our neighbor as
j ourselves, ami as totally irreconcilable with
' the object and principles of the Gospel ot
' Christ, which enjoins that all things what

them as dependent on the will of others,
whether they shall receive religious in
srrution ; whether they shall know and
worship the true God ; whether they snail
enjoy the ordinances of the Gospel; wheth
er they shall perform the duties and cherish
the endearments of husbands and wives,
parents and children, neighbors and friends;
whether they shall preserve their chastity
and purity, or regard the dictates of justice
and humanity. Such are some of the
consequ rices which connect theiu>eives
with its very existence. From this view
of the consequences resulting from the
practice of enslaving a portion of our
brethren ot mankind, it is manifestly the
duty of all christians to use their honest,
earnest, and unwearied endeavors to eor
rect the errors of former times, and as
speedily as possible to efface this blot on
our Holy Religion arid to obtain the com
plete abolition ot slrvery throughout
Christendom, and if possible throughout
toe world."
They further exhorted tl ose portions of
the church where the evil ot slavery had
been entailed upon them,to "continueand
if possible to increase their exertions to
effect a total abolition ot slavery, and to
suffer no greater delay to take place in this
interesting concern, than a regard to pub
lie welfare truly and indispensably de
tuands."
Having thus quoted its previous leliver
anees. the General Assembly ot the jfes j
ent year te affirm the above action ut 1818.
adding "that the present condition of our j
church and country furnish manifest to ;
kens that the time has at length come, in j
the pruvid rice of God, when it is his will |
that every vestige ot human slavery amongst J
us should be effaced, and that, every chris j
tian man should address himself with in
dustry and earnestness to the performance
of his appropriate part of this great duty."
That 41 whatever excuses for its postpone
merit once existed, no longer avail*" that |
44 under the influence of the most incoui j
preheusihle infatuation of wickedness, those
who were the most interes'ed in the per !
petuatiou of slavery have taken away every j
motive tor its further toleration." Tli-t !
under existing circumstances, 44 the contin !
uancc ot negro slavery is incompatible with
the preservation of our liberty and inde j
pendeuce,' and 44 that the interests of j
peace and social order are identified with j
the success ot the cause ol emancipation
They finally close with the following lan
guage :
44 In view therefore of its former testimo
niais upon the subject, the General Assem
bly does hereby recommend to all in our
communion to labor honestly, earnestly and
unweariedly in their respective spheres for
this glorious consummation, to which hu
man justice, christian iove national peace
and prosperity ev. ry earthly and every re

passed the following:

And at its session the present year in

the same subject says,

The Baptist Church,
At the session of its Annual Missionary
Union in May last, at Philadelphia, took
the following action, viz:
' 4 While desiring as a religious body to
abstain from ali expression of opinion on
matters purely political, yet, organized as
we are for the extension ot the Gospel
throughout our own ounitry, we cannot
but feel that we should he wanting in pat
riotism and Christianity alike, were we to
fail to put ou record our sentiments in ref
erenee to the fearful lile struggle through
which the nation is now passing, and the
great principles ot justice and right which
underlie, that struggle. Therefore, lie
solved.
1 That we regard the rebellion inaugu
rated by the Southern States lor the pur
pose of destroying the Union which our
fathers founded and establishing a slave
holding confederacy, as utterly causeless
and inexcusable—a crime against civili
zation, humanity, freedom and God, unpar
alleled in all the centuries.
2 That we tender to the President and
the national authorities the assurance of
our confidence and of our sympathy with
their efforts to maintain the integrity of
the Republic; of our prayers for their sue
cess; of our readiness to sustain them by
the sacrifice of property and life ; aud of
our hearty assent to conquering disunion
by reproving slavery its cause."
The Methodist Episcopal Church,
Contains in its book of discipline the
following chapter:
Qudstun What shall be done for the
extirpation of the evil of slavery ?
Answer We declare that we are as
much as ever opposed to the great evil of
slavery We believe that t.l>e buying, sell
iug or holding of huuian beings, to be
used as chattels, is contrary to tbe law of
God and nature and inconsistent with the
golden rule, and with that rule of our dis
cipbne which requires all who desire to
continue amongst us to 4 -do no barm,"
and to "avoid evil of every kind." We
therefore affectionately admonish all our
preichers and people to keep themselves
pure from this gieat evil, and to seek its
extirpation by all lawful and christian
means
In addition to this chapter, the last Gen
eral Conference of this church, held in May
last, at Philadelphia, passed amongst others
the following resolution:
Resolved,\ That we are decidedly in fa
vor of such amendment of the Constitu
tion and such legislation on the part cf the
States, as shall prohibit slavery orinvolun
tary servitude, except lor crime, through
out all the States aud territories of the
country.
Now, Messrs Editors, such being the
tenets and recommendations oi the churches,
1 would simply call the attention of the
readers again to the scriptures quoted at
the outset. A LOVER OF TRUTH.
A NOBLE KENT (JUKI AN ON THE
COPPERHEADS.
.Speech of Rev Br Breckinridge at
Lexington.
The Rev. Dr Breckinridge, the uncle of
John C., in a speech delivered s few days
since in Lexington, Kentucky, said that
his nephew was more honest and brave
than the Copperheads, because while those
1 rapscallions are neither honest nor brave
enough to take up arms ou side, he
exposes his life for the cause in which he
is engaged.
He :hen continued: Every time I use
the word Copperheid you will understand
that 1 mean a man who hates fbe Govern
tnent, because he loves tbe negro better
iban his owu soul. These are the men
that have fallen under this temptation; and
when we condemn tbe eminent meu who
were courageous enough to take up arms
against us, don't let us leave out nt our
condemnation the great mass wtio are left
behind as bad or worse than they are.
When Simon de Montfort was slaughtering
the Protestants in the South ot France, he
was appealed to by certain persous, declar
ing that his meu where mistaken, that they
were killing many who were good Catho
lics. To whi :h he replied, 4 -Kill them all;
God knows his own." And this is the way
we should deal with these fellows; treat
them all alike, and if there are any among
them who are not rebels at heart, God
will take care of them aud save them at
last.
Dr. Breckinridge then made a brief re
view of what the Administration had ac
complished with the rebellion in less than
four years. Instead of carrying out the
do nothing policy of Buchanan, who al
lowed secession to go on unmolested, with
out hesitation, he set to work and bas
recovered the major portion of the seceded
territory, and it the people would be true
to themselves and their President a little
longer, the rebellion would be dead
1 made a speech here, continued the
Doctor less thau two years ago, for which I
SEEFJHt.IIST CKlitSJSnnrs SHEinBo
was hooted at as a coercionist; and I re
member too, that Judge Lusk, than a can
didate for Congress, wi*? also charged with
the same thing. He replied that his
accusers were mistaken; he was no coercion
ist, but an extirpationist And this is the
true doctrine to go on. This thing of
revolt, secession, or rebellion, whatever it
may be, must be exterminated root and
branch. It is n< t necessary that every
man should be killed, but the rebellious
spirit must be crushed out and removed.
In this lies the only safety of the country.
Lincoln has proved that this is his doctrine,
his fixed purpose, and we don't know that
any new man could be trusted in this re
spect As for myself, I will forgive him
ten thousand times it he will go straight
along and do it. 1 will forgive the mis
deeds of all his officers here and elsewhere,
illegal arresls include!. Aud as to these,
all the fault I have to find is, that more
should have been arrested than were, aid
many of those that were arrested were set
at liberty too soon It is the idea of some
religionists that the best evidence ol God's
goodness is, that after beginning to punish
the sinner he lets him off as soon as he
repents. But Lincoln begins to punish
the rebellious rascals, and then lets them
go before there is any sign of genuine con
version. This is a great error, and proves
to me that he don't love them as he ought
to. My mother used to switch me until I
was content to kiss the switch, and the
the rebels must be punished until they
cheerfully yield to the powerful and kindly
authority against which they rebelled. It
is a dread'ul remedy, I admit, but when
undertaken it must be carried out, or worse
consequence will follow.
Mr. Lincoln is a lair sample of an honest
American citizen. You all remember
Henry Clay? The greatness and graudeur
of Irs character was, that he was a fair
though favorable specimen of the glorious
American citizen. That was the reason of
the love cherished lor him by the people.
Lincoln without all the talent of Clay, or
the advantages of education, is just such a
man. He is a favorable specimen of the
great mass of the people, and your politi
cal leaders know it; ana tnat is tne reason
they don't want hiui elected.
What is it you are asked to do in turning
him out? Consider, as wise meu, what
you are called to sacrifice. In the first
place, look at the platform of Chicago.
Let me toll you a secret about the platform.
It was made long before the Convention
j met, at tbe Clifton House, in Canada; made
| by the representatives of the Confederate
I Government, in concert with the leaders of
the Peace party in tbe North. You ask
how 1 know this.'' On the Bth of August,
twenty days before that Convention met,
the correspondent of the London Times,
the European organ opposed to the loyai
States, wrote a letter which was published
iu that sheet, stating precisely the leading
; terms ot the Chicago platform as agreed on
there aud then, and as to be adopted at
Chicago. There were three propositions
distinctly stated by him; Fust an armistice;
second, a demand tor a Convention; iti'rd,
peace on any terms; and, in addition, the
turning out of Lincoln and the puttiug in
ot somebody who would stand on the
platform designated. Here it is: two weeks
before the Convention met in Chicago, the
terms of that platform are published in the
London Times, on the other side of the
Atlantic, and it comes back here just as
you received it from Chicago.
More than this : It so happened that I
w..s at Niagara at tbe time; it happened
that I saw the gentlemen there who were
makuig these terms. 1 was satisfied they
were for devumenr, and not for good. The
i talk oi peace was mere bosh. They didn't
want to make peace with with us; they
! wanted peace for their Conlederaey. It
: was that portion of the Democratic party
figbtiug us at the South, and the other
portion supporting them iu the North, who
weie negotiating terms ot co operation.
The one half, I say, are fighting us at the
South; and the other half tormiug conspir
acies and arming their secret soos in the
North; aud i hey of the No'th send com mis
sioners to the Cliftou House in Canada,
auu they of the South already have their
commissioners there. They met and agreed
upon a .-ommon piatfotm, which is takeu
to Chicago aud ratified by the Convention.
The people of the United States are
j never going to stand that sort of a thing
! —the coucocting of a platform by reoels,
its approval by our violent enemies in
Europe, agreed to by disloyal meu at the
North, and then brought to be run down
our throa's, willing or unwilling We
ain't goiug to swallow it, you may rest
assured. 'lbis is the way it was done in
the Chicago Convention. There was one
ot ihe Kentucky delegations, gentlemen
who have been the most furious negotia
tiooist on earth, if you could believe their
I declarations; and there was Gen. Coombs,
I that has not allowed tbe grass to grow on
any stump in his district for years, by rea
sou of bis war speeches; the one accept
ed a war caudidate, and the other a peucv
platform, and then promised McClellan
SU,UUU majority in Kentucky. 1 reckon
J you have ail seen a little instrument lying
! on the table of some neighbor, by which,
| if you look at a thing with both eyes at
the same time tbe thing changes to some
, thing eise. At Chicago they fixed up their
Nev, Series—Vol. XVill. No. 50,
platform iu the same way. If you look at
it with one eye it is one thing, and if you
look at it with the other it is another thing;
but if you look at it with both it is some
thing else ! So, if you look at McOMlan
with one eye, sud at Pendleton with the
oilier eye, you don't see either McClellan
or Pendleton, but the one runs into the
other, and you see the platform. But if
you shut the McClellan eye you don't see
the platform; and if you open it, and shut
tflre Pendleton eye you don't see the plat
form You have got to look with one eye
at McClellan and the other at Pendleton, #
or you will not see the platform The
whole thing is a cunning, swindling trick
that does not suit this latitude, and will
not go down
I cannot now go into a consideration of
the platform in detail. But theii great
cry is an armistice and a Convention of ths
States. \Y hat after that? They u.ay not
make peace, and then what is to he di nc ?
But, lirst, how is the Convention to be Called?
It requires two thirds of (!• ogress to vote
for such a cail, which must he ratified by
three fourths of the States; and these
votes you never can get. What chance is
there of getting three fourths of the
States to go for a Convention for the pur
pose of bringing us under Jeff Davis, or
for dividing the Union? The thing is
absurd If it cannot he done, what then?
f hen we are in favor of any other peace
able remedy Dear, blessed souls ! Any
other peaC' able remedy; nothing that ia
not peaceable. Now, for God's sake, and
for your country's sake, look at it. Here
we are, after between three and four years'
war; after spending two or three thousand
millions of dollars; after spilling the blood
of a million of our brothers, and consign
ing five hundred thousand of them to their
graves; after conquering an extent of terri
tory 1,500 miles in leugth by 600 in
breadth, have an army in every State of
the Confederacy, and the majority of them
under our contiof; we have every strong
hold taken iroui them, except Mobile and
Charleston and Kichtiioud; and notwith
standing all this, we are asked, as if we
were a set of poltroous, to di-grace our
selves to the latest generation of mankind,
to sacrifice everything we have fought for,
and make all the world say free Govern*
meut is worthless, that it cannot take care
of itself. God Almighty in heaven grant
that every man who utters such a thought
may be choked until he becomes a penitent
and better man.
No, sir! no. sir! we will never do any such
thing. We love peace—love it for its own
Isike. They love peace because they are
I afraid we will first whip the rebels and then
j punish tbem They want pcuee that will
[ make new conspiracies, and the peace they
i propose is disunion peace, which means
i separation of the States and endless ruin to
| the whole country. Ten thousand times
I better would it have been for us to have
! acquiesced at first, and never shed a drop of
I blood, than under these circumstances, and
at this time, to make such a peace as that.
i Another Deserter from the White Flag,
j As fust as the color of the flag under
which the supporters of McClellan are
invited to rally becomes known, de
sertions become more frequent. The
truth is, loyal men have no liking for
the White Flag raised at Chicago, and
there is a general disposition to repu
diate it. The Boston Herald, a pa
per of wide circulation; a supporter of
j .Douglas in 1800, has come out against
| the Chicago doings. We quote a single
| paragraph from its article repudiating
j the entire concern ;
The talk about free speech, a free press,
and the Constitution, is very pretty, and
these are capital catch words to deceive
honest voters. But how is it in the do
minion of Jefferson Davis? How about a
free press and free speech there? If a man
in Virginia should dare to utter one word
against Davis or his plaus, he would be
hung to the first tree or most convenient
lamp post for his temerity. Yet these
leaders are the men tbat the Chicago Con
vention propose to restore to power in the
nation to wreak their vengeance upon thoso
at the North who have opposed them.
What kind of liberty of speech and of the
press would there be then? The success
; of the Chicago ticket would be but the
beginning of a series of disasters horribie
to contemplate. For ourselves we support
1 no such doctrines and no such ticket as
j those made and put forth at Chicago, and
which we believe will be repudiated by the
people at the polls.
