BY A METUODIST CLERGYMAN
WILDS OF CIIECACQUE, lowa.
- October 7. 1634.
.211 y Very Dear Friend :—Before 1 left
Dubuque, yourself and several other gen
tlemen of various Christian churches re-
Quested the publication of my sermon de
livered on the 4th inst. A long habit of
speaking extemporaneously has made me
careless of the preservation of either ser
mons or speeches which I am . called upon
to make from time to time. Therefore, to
give you. my language or to transfer to pa
per my allusions to civil and religious
libern would be impossible. But, with
every possible desire to Re brief, 1 shall
give my opinions to yourself in regard to
right of every man worshipping God accor
ding to the dictates of his own conscience,
and just as freely express my fears of, and
opposition to, every organization either se
open which looks to the abridge
ment o this great principle, which is es
, sential to the very existence of republican
Government and the uncorrupted worship
of the living God.
You, sir, are a Catholic; 1 am a Metho
dist. Your faith 1 believe to be the result
of a deliberate judgment formed after a
careful investigation. Your convictions
and devotions are conscientious. Just such
are my faith and my devotions, and the
faith and devotion of every true Christian
everywhere. I suppose you could not for
sake your religion and remain an holiest
man; I am equally clear that I could not
abandon my principles and retain for a mo
ment my self respect and enjoy the appro
ving smile of my Holy Maker and Judge,
who kindly regards the infirmities of his
creatures,. and scrupulously abhors pre
tence or deceit. Then, my dear friend,
what are we to do ! On the details of our
respective religious creeds we can never
agree. Shall you, therefore, destroy me ?
or shall I, with a superior charity or en
lightened faith, seek your annihilation, be
cause we differ concerning matters which
none but the wise and eternal God can cor
rectly determine ? Is it an injury to eith
of us that the other, standing upon his re
sponsibilities to the Supreme Judge of the
universe,cliooses to consult Him alone,and
disregard the opinions of men, merely re
lating to thingsnot of this world ? It would
insult your good sense to tamely answer
these inquiries in the negative, for you had
anticipated them all. There is only one
answer, which has been conclusive to every
reasonable worshipper of. God. “Let every
man befullypersuaded in his ownmind.' The
Constitution of the land, wisely providing
for the political agreement of a multifarous
religious sentiment, has guaranteed to
every man a right to worship God accor
ding to the dictates of his own conscience.
And, for the very first time in the history
of modern civilization, our national govern
ment has not only permitted, but has en
couraged, by her liberal ,legislation, the
growth of every sincerely devoted body of
Christians; irrespective of their name or
formulas. It is with regret that I sec an
attempt made in various portions of the
country to create midnight censorship and
star chambers, for the avowed object of
disfranchising the Catholic population of
the country, and waging a war, of all oth
ers the most fearful and vindictive—a war
fare against religion. In the'whole history
of the world there never has been a time
when such secret organizations as the Know
Nothings were left with so shallow a pre
tence for their combination as at the pres
ent, never a tithe when so -little has been
threatened by any organized form of Chris
fumity as now.
; In - the first Olace, there is not a majori
ty of the United States in communion with
any church. There is a very clear major-'
ity who are not members of any religious
body, and this majority would resist to the •
death the least squinting at an encroach
ment upon the right of opinion. In thesecond
place the government does not, directly
or indirectly, support by gifts or fees any i
bne denomination of Christians, and of
course can have no preference in her choice t
among them. Moreover, the numerical
strength of the communicants of the seve
ral denominations is very nearly the same,
and kept in awe by mutual watchfulness.—
A mutual forbearance, continued since the ,
organization of our government, has crea
ted a Christian fraternity of feeling among
conflicting opinions unknown before in the
history of Christianity.
The population of the United States was
in 1850, 23,191,918, and is now about 26,-
000,000; of this number about 1,600,000
are Methodists of every order, 1,200,000
are Baptists.
Who, then, that is not afflicted with ai l
superstitious monomania, can offer a rea
soaarde pretence for a formidable organi
zation of a religious power in the United
States g Indeed, sir, if there has ever been
a time when infidelity and contempt for all
religion had an ascendancy, that time is
now.
But, should a time ever come when re
ligious intolerance threatens the existence
of free institutions, and resistance to ec
clesiastical power becomes necessary, even
then'Know-Nothingism, or any other se
cret political organization, ought not to re
ceive the countenance of any lover of free
government. Secrecy and hypocrisy are
the favorite instruments of kings and des
pots. No country can long remain free
after its great principles are abandoned,
andthe government itself becomes the spoils
of the tricky, skulking politician. I con
ceive the Know-Nothing organization of
this character, or why the organization at
all in a country like ours,where every man
has a voice in the legislation of the land
Where no privileged order is established
or countenanced by law, I cannot conceive
of a single thing affecting those gentlemen
as citizens which does not in the same sense
affect every other man in the country. If
their designs are just and patriotic, they
are surely sustained by reason ; and I think
the same reasons which have convinced
them will also convince us of the same
things, and there can be no necessity for
secrecy in the prosecution of honorable
purposes.
But there are evils resulting from such
associations which ought not to be over
looked. In a republican government the
basis of our security is public confidence.
Whatever strikes at public confidence,
strikes at republicanism. When the Whig
party beats the democratic party upon an
issue made public, the defeated party gives
up the contest ry.s. honorably settled. In
turn he openly gains for his own party an
equal triumph, and the opposition as quiet
ly acquiesce in their overthrow. .It was
done openly; they saw how it was done,
and are satisfied.
But in the success bf secret political so
cieties public confidence is undermined; it
gives way; a reign of terror commences;
another SECRET organization, know-some
things, are organized; and they, too, may
triumph, and the dismayed know-nothings
may not so tamely submit. They, in re
venge, apply the munitions of secret war
fare. Long before the charter was granted
to any of these organizations, midnight
was deemed an auspicious time for secret
depredations, and no more powerful means
than the spark of fire, or the simple mod
ern invention appropriately called lucifer
matches, would be needed to assist in se
cret resistance to the superior trick of the
victorious party.
No less sacred a citadel than the tem
ple of worship and family altar will be
lighted up and illumine the earth with their
fires. Aye, sir, already has this infernal
work begun under
. the auspices of this
modern institution of reform—already
have. Catholic churches been burned to the
ground or battered down by the hands of
the lawless, irresponsible mob, patronized
by those graceless demagogues who would
reform the world and maintain the super
excellent character of Christian gentlemen,
whilst they use for most enormous crimes
minions heated by mad fanaticism, the
worst and basest of the whole family of
man.
Where is the church-burning to end un
der the auspices of such an extended, and
powerful, and siy, and heartless band ?
All of your churches may lie in ruins upon
the earth. Then may your monasteries and
nunneries share the same fate: By this
time church-burning may become faShion
able, and the hand long trained to incen
diarism may with the same facility try his
experiment upon the Methodist churches,
which, like Catholic churches, may be de
voured by flames. But the dwellings of
priests and the houses of Methodist preach
ers, may endure a similar fate, as they be
come subject to the overruling mandates
of King Mob. Indeed, the forebodings to
one accustomed to melancholy feelings are
truly frightful. To the sober-minded the
fearful results of such organizations prom
ise no less than the overthrow of our free
government. It was their secret political
reformation which preceded the French rev
olution, and contributed to the trophies of
Marat and Robespierre. The , results are
plain and natural, and it requires far more
of fortitude than wisdom to forsee a nation
of Christian republicans giving way to van
dalism until she is overcome with a pure
barbarism, and seeks protection and pleads
for quarters beneath the hospitable throne
of an absolute despotism. It surely re
quires no vast stretch of imagination to
travel back to the reign of our Catholic
and Protestant English Kings and Queens,
who have left nothing to posterity but a
loathsome memory of their persecutions in
flicted upon conscientious men for no other
crime than the voluntary worship of the
living God. indeed, sir, the memory of
the iliutartous Calviet has been soiled by
the reflection of persecutions inflicted upon
his dissenting contemporary, Servetus.—
New England, both the cradle and the
grave of true liberty, destroyed the por
trait of her Plymouth landing by interpos
ing the frightful spectacle of hanging Qua
kers and Baptists for their opinions; and
who that has had absolute power has not
thus appropriated it I and with a generous
forgetfulness these our mutual wrongs and
mutual sufferings are consigned to obliv
ion.
What high-minded, intelligent Catholio
or Protestant would see these scenes re
enacted upon the continent of America,
though they.were regulated by law 2 Who,

in the name of liberty, would seek their
introduction by mob violence, under the
sacred garb of religion, wearing the sacer
dotal robes of the temple of God? There
may be wrongs in every ecclesiastical or
ganization. If they conflict with the rights
of citizens, the law under our constitution
is abundantly able to correct the evil; if
they do not conflict with these rights, it
remains a question with man and his Ma
ker without an intervening power.
There may be a wrong in our laws which
isinot sufficiently scrutinizing and severe
inf the prohibition of the emigration of for
eign paupers and foreign criminals; if that
be so, let those laws be amended, and ev
ery honorable foreigner will rejoice in the
distinction which is made between virtue
and vice. That would be a leveling blow,
indeed, which at one fell stroke struck
down the good with the evil, the wise with
the foolish, indiscriminately. But such is
know-nothingism in its inception. God
only knows the end, and may He in mercy
forefend us the worst!
. I am your sincere friend and fellow-cit
,zen, bound by the fraternal feelings of a
iberal and holy `ihristianity.

A. P. Gr.egoire, Esq.
HERE SHE GOES, THERE SHE
The following amusing and well told
story was published in one of the city pa
pers of Gotham, about a dozen years ago.
It Occasioned at the time a good deal of
merriment :
Not long since, two stylish-looking per
sons put up for the night in the upper part
of the city. On the morrow, after order
ing their bill they sent for the landlord,
who was not long in waiting on aristocratic
guests.
"I wish to purchase that old clock up
stairs will you sell it ?" asked the elder,
while the younger lit a cigar, and cast his
eyes over the columns of a newspaper
which lay upon the table. The landlord,
who had set no great value upon the clock,
except as an heir-loom, began to suspect
that it might possess the virtues of Mar
tin Heywood's chair, and be filled with
coin; and almost involuntarily, the three
ascended to the room which contained it.
" Tho fact is," said the elder, t , I once
won twenty pounds with a clock like that."
"Twenty pounds !" ejaculated the land
lord.
"Yes ! You see there was one like it in
a room down in Essex, and a fellow bet me
he could keep his fore-finger swinging
with the pendulum for an hour, only say
ing. "Here she goes, there she goes."—
He couldn't do it. I walked the money
out of him in no time.
"You did ! You could'nt walk it out of
me. I'll bet you ten pounds I can do it
on the spot !"
"Done?" cried the "knowing one."
The clock struck eight, and with his
back to the table and the door, the land
lord popped in a chair—
“ Here she goes, there she goes !” and
his finger waved in curve, his eye fully fix
ed on the pendulum. The fellows behind
interrupted. _
"Where's the money Plank the mon-
The landlord was not to lose in that way.
His fore-finger slowly and surely went with
the pendulum, and his left hand disenga
ged his purse from his pocket, which he
threw behind him on the table. All was
silent; the dapper man at length exclaim
ed—
"Shall I deposit the; money in the hands
of the waiter I"
"Here she goes, there she goes!" was
the only answer.
One of the wags left the room. The
landlord heard him go down the stairs;
but he was not to be disturbed by that
trick..
Presently the waiter entered, and touch
ing him upon the shoulder, asked—
" Mr. B—, are you crazy? What are
you doing?"
"Here she goes, there she goes!" he
responded, his hand waving the fore-finger
as before.
The waiter rushed down stairs; lie called
one of the neighbors and asked him to go
up. They ascended, and the neighbor seiz
ing him gently by the collar and in auim
ploring voice, said—
" Mr. B—, do not sit here. Conte,
come down stairs; what can possess you to
sit here." •
"Here she goes, there she goe's!" was
the sole reply, and the solemn face and
the slowly moving finger settled the mat
ter. He was mad!
"He is mad," whispered the friend in a
low voice; "we must go for the dotter."
The landlord was not to be duped, he
was not to be deceived, although the whole
town came to interrupt him.
"You had better call his wife," added
the friend.
"Here she goes!" repeated the landlord,
and his hand still moved on.
In a minute his wife entered full of ag
ony of soul.
"My dear," she kindly said," look on
me. It is your wife who speaks !"
"Here she goes, there she goes !" and
his hand continued to go, but his wife
wouldn't go; she would stay, and he tho't
she was determined to conspire againt him
him and make him lose the wager. She
wept, and she continued—
" What cause have you for this? Why do
you do so? Has your wife—
" Here she goes, there she goes !" and
his finger seemed to be tracing her airy
progress, for anything she could ascertain
to the contrary.
"My dear," she still continued, think
ing that the thought of his child whom he
fondly loved, would tend to restore him,
"shall I call up your daughter?"
"Here she...goes, there she goes!" the
landlord again repeated, his eyes becoming
more and more fixed and glazed, from the
steadiness of the gaze. A slight smile
which had great effect upon the minds of
those present, played upon his face, as he
thought upon the many unsuccessful re
sorts to win from his purpose and of his
success in baffling them. The physician
entered. He stood beside the busy man.
He looked .at him in silence, shook his
head, and to the anxious inquiry of the
wife, answered—
"No madam ! The fewer persons here
the better. The maid had better stay
away; do not let the maid—"
"Here she goes, there she goes !" yet
again, in harmony with the waiving finger,
issued from the lips of the landlord.
"A. consultation I think will be neces
fiery," said• the pb.yeiolan. •c Will you
rum tor Dr. A--1"
The kind neighbor buttoned up his
and hurried from the room.
In a few minutes Dr. A—,with
other medical gentleman, enterd.
"This is a sorry sight," said he to
doctor with him.
"Indeed it is, sir," was the reply.
is a.sudden attack, one of the—
" Here she goes, there she goes!"
the sole reply. The physicians
into a corner and consulted toge ier.
"Will you be kind enough to 'run fl
barber? We Inuit have his head slu,
and blistered," said Dr. A--.
"Ah, poor dear husband," said the 1 dy.
"I fear he will never know his miser ble
wife."
"Here she goes, there she goes!" aid
the landlord, with a little more emp sis,
and a more nervous, yet determined Iwa
ving of the finger in concert with the pen
dulum; for the minute hand was ear
a l
the twelve—that point which was to put
ten pounds into his pocket, if he had rri
ved at it without suffering himself td be
interrupted.
The wife, in a low bewailing tone, Con
tinued her utterances.
"No! never; nor his daughter."
"Here she goes, there she goes!'! al
most shuited the landlord, as the minute
hand arrived at the desired point.
The barber arrived; he, was naturally a
talkative man, and when the doctor made
some casual remark, reflecting uponthe
quality of the instrument he was about / to
use, he replied.
Ah, ha! Monsieur, you say ver bad to
razor—tes beautiful—oh !—look-- 'ery
fine,isn't her
"Here she goes, there she goes!" sere ni
ed the landlord, his hand waiving on on
his face gathering a smile, and his whole
frame in readiness to be convulsed with joy.
The barber was amazed. "Here ishe
goes, thereZshe goes !" he responded In
the best English he could use. "V re?
vare shall I begin? Vat is dat he s y?"
"Shave his head at once!" interupte the
doctor, while the lady sank into a c air-.
"Here she goes, there she goes!" for
the last time cried the landlord, as the
clock, struck the hour of nine, and he
sprang from his seat in an ecstacy of de
light, screaming at the top of his voic , as
he skipped about the room—
"l've won it!—l've won it!"
"What?" said the waiter.
"What?" echoed the doctors.
"What ?" re-echoed the wife.
"Why, the wager—ten pounds !"
casting his eyes around the room,
missing the young men who induced
to watch the clock, he asked—
" Where are those young men who
ped here last night? eh? quick—w
are they ?"
"They went away in their pheaton n
ly an hour ago !" was the reply ol
waiter..
The truth flashed like a thundem
through his mind. They had taken
pocket-book with twenty one pounds ti
in, and decamped—a couple of swim
sharpers, with wit to back them.
MINISTERS AND POLITICS.—The
people of this country have usually
greatly averse to Union of Clinic'
State. From present indications, it
seem that some sort of an alliance
progress between the two powers. The
pit in certain sections has certainly
its fingers very deep into politics of
A New York writer in cue of the moll ,
papers states that there were no less
nine sermons advertised to be preach
a
that city on last Sabbath, in refererk
the then approaching State election ;
among the speakers at a political me
held in New York last week, we notic
names of two city pastors. Neither of
however, we are happy to say, were
School Presbyterians. It is true tha.,
object ostensibly aimed at was the pi
tion of temperance—a good cause, ce
ly, but in this instance so connected
political partizanship, that it was- im
ble for ministers to take a public par
out entering the arena of political str
We have our doubts whether the can
self will gain by clerical advocacy in
a conneetion ; and we feel assured
mingling in platform discussions,
such circumstances, will not add mu
the weight, and influence of minis
character. Even those who are to
litically benefitted by such aid would I
ably prefer that the clergy should cC
themselves to their appropriate sphert
to preaching the gospel, and leave tli
litical electioneering to those whose ,
ince it mere appropriately belong
ministers may interfere in one ins
they may in others; and if they are to
the pulpit to drag their garments i
mire of politics, we fear there will'
gloomy day both for the Church ant
the State Presbyterian.
At the anniversary of a religious sol
lately held in New York, the Revf
Bethune said:
“If this were a political meetint
might perhaps allow ourselves to dill

part, I do not believe in•olergymen atjti

TEE GREAT PLAGUE
In Dickens' Child's History of England,
.Vol. 2, we find the following respecting
the Great Plague that prevailed in the
city of• London in the seventeenth centu
ry
"During the '• ter o 1664, it had been
whispered about at so e few people had
died here and there a disease called the
plague, in some of the unwholesome su
burbs of London. News was not publish
ed at that time as it is now, and some be
lieved these rumors, and some disbelieved
them, and they were son forgotten. But
in the month of May, 1664, it began to be
said all over town that the disease had
burst out with great violence in St. Giles,
and that the people were dying in great
numbers. This soon turned out to be aw
fully true. The roads out of London were
choked up by people endeavoring to escape
from the infected city, and large sums
were paid for any kind of conveyance.
The disease soon spread so fast that it
was necessary to shut up the houses in
which sick people were, and to cut them
off from all communication with the living.
Every one of these houses was marked on,
the outside of the door with a red cross
and the words : 'Lord, have mercy on us !'
The streets were all deserted, grass grew
in the public ways, and there was a dread
ful silence in the air. When the night
came on, distant rumblings used to be
heard, and these were the wheels of the,
death cart, attended by men with Veiled fa
ces and holding cloths to their mouth, who
rang doleful bells, and cried in a loud and
solemn voice, "bring out your dead !"
The corpses put into the carts were buried
by torch-light in . great pits, no service be
ing performed over them—all men being
afraid to stay for a moment on the brink
of the ghastly graves. In the general fear
children ran away from their parents, and
parents from their children. Some were
stabbed or strangled by hired nurses, who
robbed them of all their money and stole,
the very beds on which they lay. Some
went mad, dropped from their windows,
ran through the streets, and in their pain
and frenzy threw themselves- into the riv
er.
These were not all the horrors of the
time. The wicked and dissolute, in wild
desperation, sat in taverns, singing roaring
songs, and were stricken as they drank;
and went out and died. The fearful and
superstitious persuaded themselves that
they saw supernatural sights—burning
swords in the sky,gigantic arms and darts.
Others pretended that at night, vast crowds
of ghosts walked round and round the dis
mal pits. One madman, naked, and car
rying a brazier full of burning coals upon
his head, stalked through the streets cry
ing out that he was a prophet, commission
ed to denounce the vengeance of the Lord
on wicked London. Another always went
to and fro, exclaiming :—"Yet another for
ty days and London shall be destroyed !"
A third awoke the echoes of the dismal
streets, by night and by day, and made
the blood ,of the sick run cold, by calling
incessantly, in a deep, hoarse voice
the great and dreadful God !"
Through the months of July .and Au
gust, and September, the Great Plague
raged more and more. Great fires were
lighted in the streets, in the hope of stop
ping the infection; but there was a plague
of rain, and it beat the fires out. At last
the winds which usually rise at that time
of the year, which is called the equinox,
when day and night are of equal length all
over the world, began to blow and purify
the wretched town. The deaths began to
decrease, the fugitives to return, the shops
to open again, and pale, frightened faces
to be seen in thg streets. The plague had
been in every part of England, but in close
and unwholesome London it had killed
one hundred thousand people."
