for our cnllghtewnent and for transmission to pos*
terity for Its entertalnmont and instruction. : As it 4
is, we must ,obtain*our information Ohiefly froms
tho nCwspapert of the land 1 , arid their records of
the multifarious political mbyementsoonstantly'pro
gressihg, and'from tho eUbtion returns, which-, Jiko
the bliloial’ reports of a battle, toll us, after a great
eohfliot Is over, who was killed and wounded, and
who was friamphanh' , ;
are howso many discordant elements at
work In all parties and In aU soctions of the Con
federaoy—such wide diversities .of opiniopj and
1 apparently differences even' among
members of ths '&ame parties—so ipany
oonflioting views as to'men, policy,; and. principles
—that tf any intollfgent foreigner, unacquainted
with the rapidity with*,which in cases of emergency
partisan ranks Ore closed' up, should oome among us,
he would oomiderthedleotionof aPresidontiu'lB6o
by thepbpuUryote/or by electors chosen by the peo
ple, abutter impossibility; and, indeed, some of our
ifaahington politicians even :now regard it sot im
probable that the election may be thrown into the
House, as It was eftor tho Presidential campaign
of 1824.
The' “Opposition ” have by so means yet folly,
determined upon their plan of notion in 1880; add
the bulk of them still hesitate‘between trusting
their political fortunes to Republicanism, (~ pure
arid Simple,” arid uniting in a general volunteer
movement to prevebtthn election of-a Democratic
Presidetatial candidate.- The' polioy: prop©** to bo
pursued nowf'boiDg'warmly ducusseil by
lending Opposition presses thronghout tho country,
and many of their arguments for and, against fu
sion evince a close study of the question and intense
interest In its final decision. -Thor* fsnolaolcof
candidates among 4h«aa *dapt*<l .to either policy,
and their friends are daily growing more and more
activo in pressing their claims upon the considera
tion of the American people.
As th 6 Charleston Convention will no doubt be
hold before hriy Opposition nomination (s made,
its action will exoroise great influonoe upon their
polioy; and all parties will, therefore, await with
deep interest the result of its deliberations. ; If at
the time j£'assembles tbo Republicans havo not
faliy determined whether to .coalesce with the other
Wings of the Opposition or to Fjjn a straight out Re
publloan tiokot, as in 3855, the IrtMtotloao at
Charleston maybe so significant os to solve all
their doubts et pDce. :
Tho Democratic rflnjkajjftvo beensoaadly thinnod
by the hnfbrtanaU policy of tjuo Rational Adiain*
tratton, and it has brought so much 4j«rc4it and
so many dUhoartonlng defeats npon Die party by
its treacheries, iti proscriptions, and tbenneAvl
able notoriety it has gained, that tjibro is no hope
whatever for Doinocratio success inditftr, unless the
existing Admiaistratioaia utterly ignored, and tho
American people thoroughly satisfied that thoro is
h 6 probability of a dlreot 6r indixoot continuation
from 1861 10'3805 of the rigiin« of 1857 to 1801.
But not only do wide' diversities of opinion about
men ejist'in its' ranks,'-but also well-settled
convictions in'’ yejgard' td principle, the most
important differences bojng-’aeourately atatfd in
the three 1 classifications of Demeo/atio sentiment
in'Judge Douglas’ Harper's Magazine afucle.
Of these three dessesr, those who hold that the pop
ple of 'a Territory i; right to form and
regulate their own domestic loatttuUonfl,’ 1 aro con
stantly Increasing with'groat rapidity throughout
the whole country; and they have the great practi
cal advantage of being well-assured that, however
agitators may rave against their doctrine and Cor
Congressional intervention,' the Territorial ques
tion will Inevitably be Bottled upon the just and
equitable basis whioh they advocate.
The doctrine pf (he late long article in the Con -
stttution\ from the p*u pf Judge Blaok, when
briefly ezpressedt'amountsto this; that Inasmuch
as the Constitution,' permlts slavery in the Territo
ries, tho common law affords a sufficient protection
for it, andt therefore, that its existence is secured
until the peoplo, at the time of forming a State
Constitution, acquire a right to exclude it. But
this doctrine is contrary to tho experience of every
slaveholdtng community’; for they ell posses?, and
absolutely'require ft variety of-local statutes for
the protection of slave property. Bren thobistory
of Kansas afiords a proof for One inf the
first acts of the Legislature, when it was under tho
control of the pro-slhvory party, was' to' pass a
eerie* of laws for the protection of slavery; ,Now,
since the free-Stat* party has
there, these laws have been repealed ; and although
Kansas has twt yet been admitted Into the Union,
the contest as to her future character is virtually
decided,'and no BlareHolderh&fl tho Slightest dis
position to remove there with hla slaves'
Notwithstanding -the violence which has, it
times; disgraced the history of Kansas, and the
great mleorios which-bare been inflicted upon her
people, frbm a peculiar .combination of causes
which,' in all human probability, will peycr ope
rate upon another Territory, the great foot re
mains that tire people of Kansas, during the con
tinuance of her territorial have vir
tually deoided that she should bo a nomslavehold-
Ihg political .community. -Tho people of Nebraska
have douo the same thing. The people of- New
Mexico have chosen to declare, by the action of
their Territorial Legislature, that local laws for tho
complete^protection 6f ’slave should exist
among tiiem; a pro-slavery sentiment con
.tinuos to prevail, she wj)f doubtless eventuolly be
comb a slave State: Thus theillustrations
furnished by our history since the passage pf the
Kansoh:Nebraska octclearly indloato, not only that
thb i.ntorpretfltton put Upon it by its distinguished
author 1 is the correct end; but that the people of
>ur Territories are carrying It opt precisely as ho
contompfated, and making 'Territories fre&'pr
slave-hol<ling\ according to their own good will
'and pleasure; ‘ No'-'olose observer of events
can ddubt 'that % similar 1 privilege will be
exercised by the people of all ppr Territories lii
future; fend that, too, without waiting for tho mo

whlohTlooked for In that indiscriminate multitude'
and wns surprised not to find. I alludo to th&t of
tbo distinguished Stephen H. Branch—a celebrity
worthy of ; Gotham, and who drew crowded houses
last winter, on the occasion bf hisemergenoofrom
the walls of that penal strneturo which, adorns
Blackwell's Island. Branch beat Beecher out of

be considered ( the , test of a lecturer’s ability.

hesitate between Branch and Beecher; but I should
bet on Branch. ; The Rev, Henry Ward’s hearers

. , . OF KBNTUCKV.
The Riglit Rdverefid gentleman announced tho text of
his discourse to bo from Corinthians i, IS. 23,2 i, as fol-j
lows:
“ For the word of the Gross, to them indeed thatpo
. rish, is foolishness j bat to them who aro saved, that is,
tops, it is the power of God. * * * For the Jews re
quiro signs and the Greeks seek after wisdom: But we
proaoh Christ crucified; to the Jews a stumbling-block,
and lo the Gentiles foolishness. *'
-Tiieyrodp/ the Cross waaa foolishness to them that
to the Jews it was a stumbling-block,
Gentiles folly.‘To such as did
it exemplified the power and wisdom oFUoiK 'The 4 xnen
who , looked on the Cross of Christ divided into two;
a lasses', tlidse who boliovedana those who bplieved nof.
To it was as the power of£od and the wis
dom of God, to the Utter it was either a stumbling-bloCk,
causing them to fall, or,downright folly.
We .vrho believe, who belong to thq Cross of Christ, to
us it la the word of power, the'ford; oPtr umph, the
wordofgoodpeu. tho wont of wisdom, we can have
no better model for the -view We take of the Cross of
Christ then that token by the.inspired Apostle Pah), He
was full of the Cross of Christ. U was forever on fits
lips, forever *t the end of his yen. forever in his heart.
Uod formd»eaid ho,‘that we should glory in anything
save in the Crpsspf Christ. by which l am cruclfied to
tho World add the world ercflifisd to me. !
*, No, we care not for tho words of bumqrt wisdom, but
the words of Jesus cnioiflad. We ore saved by the blood
of the Croat, by Hie blood of Him who died upon the
Progs 5 in Him alone is salvation, and life, and reiurec
tton, by Him we ate saved anu delivered. The Cross of
Christ was the burden of the inspired eloquence of iVil,
the*all absorbing ♦oploof hiameditation, wellmljht
we glory in the Cross of Christ. Foolishness it wnsi to
thewoTld. yet it had conquered the world. A stuißbline
block it was to the Jews.-yet tboqth jt did not convert,
it &ro)fd'down the pride and Spirit of that nation which
had reared tins an Instrument of ignominy and death.
Never in the world a history vq* there* more Kloudua

there was no civilisation as we understand tho-term.

glory in the Cross of Christ. Never «as there & more

umphedover every oppositinn. Eighteen coiUuries had
not dimmed its glory, but rather rendered it more brUht
in the eye of the believer, it hod gainod the greatest
triumphs in the days of the Roman Emperors. The
eloquent, Ctooto, said, “As to the Crow. 4 roust
