K Nortir British Review." on the Arne..
nean
From time to time, as our readers may re
collect, perhaps, we have placed before
them the opinions of the leading British
newspapers and periodicals, upon Allied=
politics—more especially on the present r
ealer' of the United States, as affected by
the formation of what is called the Southern
Confederacy. Of course, there is nothing
like unanimity of opinion upon such a sub
ject. The London Times, which is written
with great ability and power, bap shown no
small ignorance, and has exhibited no limited
partiality. Whatever the cense, it is de
cidedly in favor of the seceding States. It is

Two of the great British Reviews bare pro
nounced upon the position and prospects' of ,
our Union. The other two have not yet
tenehed upon the question. We may expect,
however, that the Quarterly, organ of the
Conservative party, will hold the opinion,
lately expressed by the Earl of Derby, in the
House of Lords, that the interests of humani-
ty, civilization, and religion unite in having
the Union upheld. The Westminster Review I
has shirked the question hitherto, but that
matters little; for the ultra liberalism of tbat
journal, to say nothing of its notorious latitu.
dinarianism in religion, combine to make its
opinion upon meat subjects a matter or infi
nitesimal importance.
Last week we placed before our readers the
substance of au article, (on the a , Election of
President Lincoln and its Consequences,")
which had appeared in the Edinburgh Review,
which appeared to tis to indicate the policy of
the Palmerston Administration on the sub
ject—the Review being the accredited semi.

whose leading members, a=ir George Dorn

article," The Arrierican SeceesiOn."
For many reasons, the North British Review
is entitled to consideration. It was corn
meneed as the organ of the Free Church in
Scotland, and has bad a strong body of able
contributors. For some time Dr. Chalmers
had its theological department in charge,
while Sir David Brewster presided over the
scientific. A few years ago it was suspended
for a short time, but wa speedily revived,
with even more spirit than before, There has
been-a recent change of editorship, which is,
understood to have leased into the hands of
Mr. J. S. Blackie, Professor of Greek in the
'University of Ediatairgh, gentleman of higlri
attainments, sound judgment, and large know.f
ledge of the world. i

highly they prized reptiblican ititititntione,
they prized slavery more, and that its increase
established it permanently as a commercial as
well as a social institution, allying iteelfwith
political power. The Reviewer considers
Nallification, in 1832, as foreshadowing Seces.
aim in 1860. The addition of Texas; as a
slave State, we are told, tc was a most: im
portant step in Southern advancement; for
not only did the South acquire an enormous
tract of rich and fertile territory for a- new
slave State, but the right to create four now
States out of It, as it filled up with population.
Then, after stormy +Noontide= on the subject
of California, and the rise of the 6 Free-Soil ,
party, in all the Northern States, in 1848, the
South demanded and obtained, in 1850, a I
more stringent fugitive-slave law, by which it
expected to bind not only, as agreed; upon,
the Federal Government, but all the State
Executives of the North. Then came the
repeal of the solemn but unreal t Missouri
Compromise,' the Kansas-Nebraska act, the
Dyed Scott decision, the bloody territorial
conflict on the plains of Kansas, when ma
rauding bands in slave interest inaugurated a
reign of a Border Ruffianism' in the Territory—
when Federal officers, tools of the slave
power, attempted by fraud and foree to defeat
the will of the people at the ballot-box—when
Buchanan sought to force the infamous Le
compton Constitution upon the citizens by
the military forces at his disposal; and the
Federal Government so'far truckled to South.
ern interests, as unjustly to refuse to admit
Kansas into the Union, lest she would swell
the vote of a Republican President. So suc
cessfully had the South consolidated its
power, that in late years President after Pre
sident entered office merely as the tool of its
Sectional interests,"
The Reviewer does not exaggerate when he,
declares that tc the Southern doctrine of 1861
is, that slavery is right in theory, ordained by
God in the Old Testament, au4 fostered by
Christ in the New—that its extension is the
noblest fulfilment of humane and Christian
principle—the very best thing for the negro,
his master, society, and Government ; and that
the highest civilization and most perfect cul
ture can only exist where the laboring class is
awned by the thinking and governing class I
The conclusion which the South draws Trout
these premises le, that slavery shall be every
where respected and fostered under the United
States Oonstitation, and that slave property
shall be tolerated and protected in the terri
tories,- as a Nerthern emigrant's property in
oxen and sheep is there protected." --
The Reviewer, with etetable force, dO''
nonnees the New York Herald as a Northern
journal gt of blasted reputation and infinitesi
mal influence," so much in theluterest of the
South, as to rr advocate pro.slavery views,
either openly or insidiously." He bad not
learned, when be wrote, in what a remarkable
manner the said Herald had soddenly bolted'
its Secession opinions and, throwing a rapid
somersault, bad created considerable mirth, but
small surprise, by the transaction.
The election of Mr. Lincoln, we are told,

annihilate the power which the South had long'
wielded at Washington—an aggressive and
restless power, to which 14 the Union owes the
Mexican war, the scarcely checked filibuster
ing attempts on Cuba, Mexico, and Nicaragua,
the civil war in Kansas, and the clandestine
attempts to revive the slave trade which have
brought American institutions and the Ame
rican Executive into disgrace in the eyes of
the civilized world."
The treachery which culminated ft little be.
fore Mr. Buchanan's term of office expired is
done justice to here : The Reviewer says
r 4 We are loth to bring grave charges against
public men ; but nothing can he clearer than
that the Southern memben of Buchanan's
Cabinet, during last spring and summer, were
secretly aiding the Secession scheme then ma
turing, and that Mr. Floyd, Secretary , of War,
is actually guilty of treason. During the year
1880, from Springdeld armory alone, 125,000
muskets were sent to the points where there
were not United States troops enough to keep
them from decay, and where Secession made
its that appointnients, and sot a single musket
to any Northern arsenal, except 20,000 to New
York, with the secret understanding that they
were to be sold to the South for the paltry
tan of e 2.50 each. The Southern leaders

• One of two courses is pointed out by the
Reviewer as inevitable : The first, to regard
the seceding States as still under Federal au=
thority, and by naval blockade close the
Southern ports of entry, or collect the tariff
does on board; the second, to recognize ne-
cession as an accomplished fact, and treat with
the Confederate States fer an amicable and
nallahle solution of existing ditßoultles.

The Reviewer shows some skill in character-
Aetching. Mr. Buchanan, it the panic-stricken
helmsman of the ship of State," is described
"the special providence of the Secession
movement," and it is added, tt Buchanan,
aiding and fostering treason till he shrank
from the menacing spectre he had raised;
yielding and temporizing when firmness was
required, firm when firmness only could ex
asperate ; finally neutral, irresolute, mil
'sting." Mr. Seward is admiringly spoken of
as follows
"'The political significance whioh attaches to the
appointment of the profound, astute, and compre
hensive Now York Senator to the position of Secre
tary of State, and chief adviser of the new Clio
vernmeht, eanoot be overlooked. Rising like a
giant above the horde of public men of mean
ability and easy virtue,. Seward, with the single
exception of Crittenden, is the only man in Ame
rica who displays a genius fer statesmanship, as
distinguished from political adroitness andjagglery.

liberty and right whion are the fouttdation of no
tonal prosperity,—fit him, better than any , other
public man, for the helm of affairs in these tron
blow times. For thirty years he, has been eminent
in the national history, eschewing the ephemera of
the hour, disdaining all appeals to popular passions
and prsjadicas, and standing firmly out against
those frantic impulses by which the country has
been ormasionally lumped, earning itiolusien from
the Presidential chair, but a universal reputation
for far-seeing and eampreh ensivejedgment, causing
his utterances to be received as oracles in all pro
blems of State."
The writer, however, han.evidently reserved
himself for Mr. Lincoln, tho inlbjottied sketch
of whom, considering that it emanates from a
British source, will be considered fair :
The leading features of Lincoln's career could
hardly have been exhibited under out Old World
institutions. • Born of humble Kentaeky parents,

quence of the poverty of his widowed mother, he
spent his youth in farm labor, rail-splitting, and

on a farm, then beoame shopmen in a miscella

learned land-sutveying, served in the State Legis
lature, studied law, and in 1845 was eleotedAo

which, he opened a law officio in Springfield. He
'had oonsiderable legal practice, and his power with
juries was great, as be never uodertook a cause of
the moral right of which he wee notoonvineed, In

ewe interest. His Blimp amebae were published
as a campaign document in 1860, and gave evi
dence of a facility in debate, a legal acumen, and

tory, very remarkable in a man who had not the
advantages of education. His oratory became
famous in the Eastern States irk 13.50, when he de
livered political lectures in the large towns ; but
his chances for the Presidency were never discussed
until the Republican Convention met at Chicago;
and though be permitted his name to be brought
forward, probably no one was so surprised as him
self when it rose hither and higher on the ballot
ing list, till it was dually shouted in triumph by
10.000 voices.
" Although Locooln possesses extensive informs- I
tion, and has hewed his way from manual labor to
a learned profession, his abilities are by no means
of the highest order. He has the perceptive rather
than the reflective faculty ; his views are deficient
in breadth, and he ie a politician rather than a
statesmen. His forte is in stump oratory and po

writer, Goethe. • -He wearfra white cravat and
gold spectacles, and looks the clergyman all
over. His manner, both in the pulpit and on
theplatform, in this day of stadied oratory, may
be aknost described as nonchalant.' It is said
hat this somewhat Gamlen habit of tho 'Pro-
Idesor was; if not .contracted, at leut augment
ed by hie having been obliged to-dellvorlis
lectures to the studeuts-in.the seminary for a
considerable time in areolining posture, in con
sequence of physical inability; His platform
addresses are usaally'made'with hie left hand
in his pocket, and•holding in his -right some
book or document, and Ms irorils, no matter in
what presence, are seldom more than seriously
conversational. -Thaugh rarely, andonly on ex..
tinordinary occasions, he does, attunes, exhV .
bit considerable atdor, when his style becomes
marked and electrical; If he possesses any
tareial power„'he does not employ it - in speak-
trig. His usual, expression of lane while
preaching is a suppressed a wile,.border-ing on
the sorrowful. In the pulpit he manifests an
utter indifference' to display_; gesticulates lit
tle ; maintains entire control of himself, and
the' attention of his heareis I uses language
easily understood ; avoids . unnecessary ver-
biage ; employs no repetitions, and aims at
perspicuity rather than, elegance. , His high

As a writer on theological subjects,. Dr.
Hodge is cogent, analytical; and intensely sys.
lematio, and this is. - equally trne of-his pulpit
discourses. His sermon, ou:Sunday..morning,

The learning, force of character, and intel
lectual power of Dr. Hodge are fully indicated
in his rabliehed works, and the . positions of
eminence and responsibility whioh he has' eo
ably filled. At eighteeitt Para of age he gra
dual ed at Princeton Gellege, and at the heo-
logical Seminary at that place three years
afterward. In the latter institution he became
Af3Bistant Professor of Oriental and Biblical
Literature in 1620, from which he wan pro
moted to a full professorship in 1822. After
occupying this high, and honorable post for
eighteen years, his rare abilities as a char and
powerful writer upon the Saered Sciriptures
pointed to' him as' the proper person for the
Professorship of Didactic and Exegetical
Theo/ogy ia the same: institution, to which he
was accordingly oloretoti in 18.49, In 18 5 2 hie
duties were increased by the addition to hie
professorship of Polemic Theology, which po
sition he stid holds.
As an exegetical writer, Dr. Hodge has
probably few living - superiors. There is the
same breadth and symmetry evinced in his ex
pository logic that characterize his face and
person. The Biblical Repertory and Prtnre

in 1829 he enlarged its plan, and, with a single
Short interruption, has cont nued ,as its editor

published in the Edinburgh Christian Fireside{
Library, in 1854; his "rc-Way ot 'Life" was re,

officiated as one of a committee to revise the
Book of Discipline of the Old School Presby

There are few men in any religions denomi
nation at the present day who occupy posi
tions of equal influence, and with equal satis
faction to all concerned, with Dr. Hodge.
His discourse at the Arch-street Presbyterian
Church on Sunday morning impressed ad who
heard it with that profound respect which su
perior moral worth and real ability can alone
inspire, by a single bearing. The system and
perspicuity which mark his addresses were
beautifully exemplifie 1 in his opening prayer
from which, even by a stranger at all familiar
with the theological complexions of the vari
ous schools, his system of Bible interpretation
might have been correctly inferred. He
opened reverently, by adoring God in his in
finite majesty and power--notbing was too
vast for his comprehension; nothing too mi
nute for his condescension. Next, man's ut
terly dependant state as a creature was ac
knowledged ; then, hie lost and degenerate
condition as a sinner, self-condemned and con
demned of God ; followed by giving thanks
for the, sinner's pardon and salvation through
the meta/3g blood of christ, the Son of God,
who took the sinners' place, and died, .4 the
just for the unjust," and concluded with a pe
tition for our country, and the Church, and
that wherever the gospel of peace was pro_
claimed it might be applied to the heart and
conscience of men, by the quickening power
of the . Holy Ghost.
His text was taken from the sixth chapter
of Mark: "And whithersoever be entered,
into villages, or cities, or country, they laid
the sick in the streets, and besought him that
they might touch, if it were but the border of
his garment and as many as touched him
were made whole."
The discourse which followed was in the
highest degree analytical and lucid; it.was, in
fact, a semen of analogies. All effects, be
*said were susceptible or being divided into
three claims Ist, Such as are brought shoot
by the ordinary operations of second causes;
2d, The effects which are due to the immediate
agency of God, but not wholly dissociated
from second causes; - and 3d, Those effects
which are due to the immediate agency of
God, and involve a suspension of the ordinary
course Of nature—as e. g. Miracles. For this
reason Christ's miracles were a powerful proof
of his divinity, as Be bad wrought by his
own power, and in his own name. Those
miracles, moreover, bad never been wrought
for himself, but always for the good of others.
They were wrought for all, irrespective of
their penury or merits. The text was used as
an illustration of the simplicity of God's plan
of salvation.
There were, be said, some points of analogy
betweso the spiritual condition of We sinner
and the physical condition of those whom
Christ healed. let. Diseases were not origi-

with the disease of the semi. 2d. The disease%
of the body were incurable, i. e. the paradisai
cal estate could never be regained. So the
corrupting power of sin In the soul, while the
latter continued in the flesh, was an incurable
cancer. And, in the third place, these dis
eases were Atha; all must die. So, et sla p

As Christ had shown himself the great Phial
clan of the body, so He was the great Phy
sician of the soul.
From the analogy time found to exist,
, the next point .considered was, (a clues.
tion of jealous import among theological
doctnnatres,) what the arrow has io DO
when he is convicted of sin. In the first
place, the 1 4 sick" spoken of in the text
did not attempt to heal themselves, in applying
to tbo Pwolag Josue. The OA:46k° of the
convicted sinner too often was, that be would
make himself better. in order that °twist might
accept biat i , by resolving to set a guard over
his Winne and watch over bin heart. All
such efforts were the saran barrier against
ever co m ing to Christ at all ;. and all push
preparation on the part of man, "dead in tree
passes and sin," was like arraying a corpse in
beautiful attire as a preparatory step to having
it brought to , life. In the next place, those
icsiek" persons, in going to Jesus to be
healed, did nut pretend to -writ any ouch
terposition in their behalf •, their only plea
Was, wretchedness ; nor did they say what they
would do, if Christ healed them. So,, now,
Acre .the sinner tcr, coda%) with any auch, f nental.,,.
offering in his heart, to, obtain God's love, .
.was like offering to recompense God Air the
light of the sun! Then, again: those-healed •
persons did not co-operate with Christ, in tin:Hi' '`
healing; it was not partly his work and-partly ,
theirs. tclf thou wilt thou mist make me
cleast,” was their language. So much, then,
fOr - what the convicted sinner ebould not
NOvii as to what 'he should do. Ad. soon 'as
they heard that Ile (Jesus) was near, they went
to him. They did not stand, andmonder, and
deubt, but each one touched" the Physician
tor himself. This, in tint', taught us, in`the
first place, that it was not enough to be whore
Christ is, or to witness his works upon Others
brit each must appropriate him for himself:'
See.ond, It taught us the nature of this appro.
.priating act; in other words,
the nature of

Itself. .The "touching" by the etch had an
Aject-,—namely, to. be healed. They came,
therefore, with a sincere desire to- he healed.
So must the sinner come to Christ. Third,
They mutt come with the assurancelhat there
is no other way of being healed'; and in the
fOurth place, as the leper had sought the heal
log:power ,of Obrist under the conviction that
He could and would heal, so must the sinner
kook to the Saviour not doubting that in that
hoer he should . be is made whole." Nothing
in all this World was so simple as the Gospel.

Inspection of Army Provisionsi
[For The Pram]
In one of our leading works on military
atil t irs, I find the following under the head of
the Lc Duties of the Commissaries of Subsist
ence:" sg When provisions nave been irtspdded -
and de/ivered, agreeably to the terms of the
contract, they Will give to the contractor a re.
ceipt therefor, together with one of the cer
tificates et the inspector ! stating, at length, the
quantity and qualify of the articles delivered."
It is currently reported, Mr. Editor ; that the.
Comnbissary Department of this city has bad
no. inspector; and that men a thing as a con
'tract is unknown there ! ' L can scarcely credit
this, and yet we have no evidence to prove
the existence of an inspector. Who is ihe
inspector of provisions? When was be ap
pointed ? Where fire the certificates of this
officer setting forth, . 1 at /ehgth, the quantity
and quality of the articles delivered ?"
there has been or is an inspector, why have
such enormous frauds been permitted ?
Why
have men been allowed to tile bills intim de,
pattment, the prizes charged in which are
double those at which other parties would
have been glad to, furnish the articles?
,•If

resisters were almost stifled by the stench
while it was being roasted) passed and sent to

oftentimes, very powerful, particularly when
the hides are not well dried. This stench or
smell, unpleasant and unwholesome as It is,
-impregnates the coffee so thoroughly that It
can never be removed. When coffee thus im
pregnated is roasted, the ofiecaiie Mel' is
overpowering, as in the ease to which I have
