serve this purpoas than the circulation of the pamphlet
whose title is quoted above, 'which is one of the ablest
and most interesting doeumente that have ever appeared

SATURDAY, JUNE 1, 1861
A Leading French Journalist,
Lon% Venillot, born in 1.813; at Boyneo en
Gatenus, near Orleans, is one of the most
celebrated Journalists in France. His lather
was a poor coOper, who removed to Paris
when the child was live years old. During
the next eight years the boy was a regular
gamin, rollicking about the streets with other
ittle rapscallions. When he was not acting
as garqon servant in a gargotte, or low tatting
house- for boatmen, which his mother had
established in the Rue de Bourgogne—his
brother Eugene also being engaged ) in the
same establishment, washing p/ates and dishes.
Somehow or other he learned to read and
write—an accomplishment which, sagacious
Dogberry informs us, at comes by nature."
At thirteen, he became a minor clerk, or
ratber,—not to put too fine a point upon it, as
Hr. Snagsby, says,—an office-boy in service
of a petty attorney. Here he passed his time
between reading bad romances and listening
to worse plays at small theatres. Gradually
awoke the desire for knowledge, and with it
the ambition of becoming somebody. Without
any other instructor than himself, he picked
up a variety of miscellaneous information,
copying law-papers by day, reading a great
deal at night. He had low birth and humble
fortune to contend with, and manfully battled
with both, At the age of nineteen, he believed
himself prepared to depend upon his pen for
future subsistence and reputation. So, he
quitted the lawyer's office, and boldly set up
as a man of letters—a calling more honored in
Paris than in any other place within the con
fines of civilization.
His first articles were published in a Minis
terial journal, at the commencement of Louis
Philippe's reign—say, early in 1882. That
was the time when the crafty son of Egaliti,
the promoter, and the victim of the Revolution
of 1789, was working remarkably hard to per
rude Paris, which means France, that he was
indeed a Citizen-King, or, as deluded Lafay
ette bad styled him, cg the best of republics."
That was the time when Louis Philippe walked
in the sleets with an umbrella, as shabby, di
lapidated, and plethoric, as Mrs. Cramp's, and
played the make-believe game of pretending
to be only a crowned democrat. That was the
time when this Citizen-King kept a sharp look
out for sharp and clever young writers, who
brought enthusiasm as well as talent to the
editorial bureau. That was the; time when,
by some fortunate accident, Mr. Lonii Venil
lot was pressed into the service, and Found
himself writing leading-articles, critiques,
puffs, paragraphs, jeux d'esprit, epigrams, and
so on, in the Ministerial Echo de /a Seine
inferieure, published at Rouen, in Normandy.
The hereditary peerage had jest been abo.
lished in France, and certain able edlters---
among whom MM. Armand Carrel, Gamier
Pages, and De Cormenin—strongly advocated
the suppression of the Monarchy and the esta
blishment of a Republic They protested
against the extravagant civil list settled upEn
the Citizen• King ; which was 18,535,500
francs a year—more than double the State al.
lowance to the British sovereign, thirty-seven
times as large as that settled_ upon Napoleon
as First Consul, and a hundred and forty-eight
times as large as the salary of the President
of the United States. This, too, when, in
addition, the F..ing's private property was not
less than 6,600,000 francs a year.
In truth, there was cause for complaint.
With a strong constitution and regular life,
which combined to create such rude health,
that he had not even a catarrh during his
eighteen years reign, the apothecary's - bill
of Louis Philippe was 80,000 francs a year,
being quadruple that of the gouty and decre
pit Louis XVIII. 'No one accused the Citizen-
King of showing even much outward respect
for religion, yet the charges of his chapel-royal
were ten timer; greater than they had been
under prieat,ridden Charles X. Three hun
dred horses in the stables of Louis Philippe
cost 1,000 crowns a head, being twice the
annual salary of a member of the Privy Coun
cil or a member of the Institute. The anneal
allowance for the personal service of the King
was 3,773,000 francs (equal to $764,600),
though he affected a philosophic contempt for
all physical enjoyments, dining off a single
joint, and wearing his wigs until they were
foxy, and his uniforms until the gold lace be
came thread-bare and tarnished. Lastly,
though the Civil List of Charles X. was charged
with numerous expenses thrown on the nation
by his successor, his Civil List never exceeded
11,600,000 francs, while Louis Philippe's was
18,685,510 francs per annum!
To defend the Citizen-King was M. Veull-
lot's earliest editorial labor, and be did it
"with a will," as sailors say. He wrote
boldly, and soon had two duels on hand—one
with the republican editor of the /aurae/ de
ROU.C7I, whose anti-royal articles he had roughly
answered ; the other with an actor, whose
ability be had. ventured to estimate at its
actual value. A man who could light as well
as write is well calculated to make his way in
France. Before the end of 1832, Louis Ten
illot was promoted to be redacteur-en-chef of
the Memorial de la Dordogne, in the south
west of France. Here, again, he was engaged
in a few duels, arising ont of his bold and
satirical writing. In 1887 he was recalled to
Paris to assist in conducting La Charts dc
1830, a journal founded by the Government,
and soon after became principal editor of La
Pain, a Doctrinaire newspaper.
All this time, Louis Teuillot had no fixed
principles either in politics or religion. He
was one of the condottieri of the press—his
pen at the service of the highest bidder. But
he wrote well and . boldly-5o boldly, that be
speedily bad more duels on his hands, and, it
must be admitted, Billowed a great deal of sang-
/red on each occasion. He was rapidly oh.
tabling the reputation of being impracticable,
offensive, and quarrelsome, when M. Oliver
Pulgence, his intimate friend, who had in
duced him to become a journalist, euggested
that he should visit Italy. He arrived in Rome
during the Holy Week of 1838, in his twenty
sixth year, but pretty old in the experience
of life. The imposing splendor of the reli•
gions ceremonials in the Eternal City vividly
impressed this careless, skeptical man. He
W 45 presented. to Pope Gregory XVI., (much
about the time that (=Father Tom" spent MAI
Night in the Vatican,) and when he returned
to Paris was not the same man. He resolved
to devote himself, as a writer, to the service
of, the Catholic Church, and straightway set
about writing various religious books—some
of which have gone through eight editions,
He even wrote canticles,—badly onough, let
us own, for his conversion had not made him
a poet. Very soon, he abandoned verse
making, and returned to prose. In 1841, he
published Rome et Lorette, an account of his
Italian tour, with an autobiographical intro
duction, containing an account of his conver
sion, now in the ninth edition. Ho had the
opportunity of writing at his ease, for he was
made Prefect of Pe'rigeux soon after his re
turn from Italy.
At PArigeus he made the acquaintance of
General Bugeaud, whom he accompanied to
Algiers, in 1842, in capacity of Secretary.
Two years after that, on his return, appeared
Les Fratssais en .11gerie. About this time, he
was made Chief Secretary to the Minister of
the Interior, and, immediately after the Revo
lution of 1848, succeeded M. de COLIN., as prin
cipal editor of L' Univers, a journal established
for the sole purpose of promoting the interests
and progress of the religious party called the
Ultramontane.
With the proverbial seal of a convert, M.
Veuiliot assailed universities, professors, phi
losophy, philosophers, revolutionists, imolai
lots, and any or every system not immediately
conformable to the dictates of the Vatican.
He was assisted in this by his younger bro
ther, Eugene Venillot—the plates-and•dishee'
washer already named—author of Histeire des
-Craerres de la Venda et de /a Bretagne,l7o
1882, who was knighted In 1860, by Plus IX.,
for his devotion to the Church.
More Montalembertish than Montalembert,
(as John Wilkes was less of a Wilkite than
many of his followers,) Louis Veuillot was
very free in his editorial comments - upon such
of the French bishops as did not go fully with
him in favor of the sovereign supremacy, of the
Pope: The Archbishop of Paris and thirty-two
.Bishops censured him for his violence, and he
appealed to the Vatican—but without obtain
ing a direct Papal approval' of his zeal. He
continued, in the Univers, to war with liberty,
reason, scienee, and progress, thinking them
_hostile to the Church. At one time, he sided
with the adherents of Henri V. ; at another,
when Napoleon was sustained by the prayers
and good wishes of the clergy, declare& that
Bonapartism was the torch of Civilization, and
that Henri Quatre was a hog (am pourceau.)
To be sure, ha was not very choice in his epi
thets,'sceing that ho called Madame do Stacl,
a dragon; Rousseau, a rascal; Byron, a goat;
Lamartine, a fit'er ; and 3loliere, a Erparrovr!
Earli , in the present year the Usivera was
suppressed, by Imperial authority, for itg at
tacks upon the Imperial policy towards Rome..
The wonder is that the most violent and ag :
gressive Journal in France should have Icedrr
tolerated so long as it was. M. Veuillot
moved to Brussels, where, a few weeks
ago, he:completed a pamphlet bearing the
suggestive title of ig Waterloo," of which we
shall &Oulu° account on Monday—for it is
indeed a literary and political curiosity.
M. Louis Vealllot hufpublished, besides his
newspaper articles, nearly twenty books and
pamphlets? Travel, literature, fiction, pole
mios, religion, biography. He even took part,
once, in the authorship of a vaudeville, called
Les Via.? de France, which failed, very de
cidedly, on the first night of its representa
tion. M. Veuillot is one of the most noted
and remarkable among French journalists.

NO. 1..-CONCERNING CHIVALRY, OLD AND NEST.
(Correspondence of The Prete.]
Wasumoros, May 30, 1861.
I notice it stated in several tellable newtl
papers that Wigfall, with a company of Texan
Rangers proposes celebrating the coming
fourth of July among the broadbrims of the
city of pepper and salt.- The notion is charac
teristic. And whilst I think the latter part of
it, relating to the rangers, a matter of some
doubt, it would not startle me greatly to hear
of the actual presence on the day specified,
of the renowned Sender in your most mei
lent quarter. Wigfall is in every way a nota
ble and noteworthy person. He is a little,
squatty man, with hair all over his face. You
have seen a plump Er,.lish bull-pup, half
grown. When such op grew you iffy
easily imagieo' the nol . ea - Wia-fah, ++,o l ll- , 0 f.-
sound and fury." I will not add cc signifying
nothing." Wigfall is hill of meaning, inex
plicable ateelrieg, to judgO by the very small
portion which has escaped him. He belongs
to that mysterious, crusading blood, which
boils within so fiercely, that nothing but frost
ever comes out. Maybe you are not aware
that he shot Brooks (Mr. Sumner's assail- -
ant) in a duel some twenty years ago. And
thus far he has his claims to regard. He
is moreover a man of rare accomplishments,
is efficient as a champion against the desperate
tiger of King Faro, and can drink himself
blind drunk as quickly as any man. Moreover,
Wigfall is an expert broad-swordsman, a keen
pistol shot, and a terrible swearer! Ah, but
yon should hear him swear. Such a variety
of oaths—oaths sentimental, oaths referential,
oaths common and oaths proper, oaths, in
short, masculine, feminine, and neuter, of all
sizes, shapes, and for every emergency, real
or imaginary. YOU straight-laced Quakers
can't altogether appreciate the full force,
effect, service, prestige of a full, round, un
varnished oath. With the chivalry It fa a
staple commodity of most excellent quality.
With our ancient cavaliers, you remember, it
was a weapon of wonderful prowess. It has
not degenerated. From "by my halidom !"
to "damn your eyes!" the expletive lum
gained strength, versatility, melody of rhythm,
music of diction, and force of character.
Wigfall could illustrate the entire science,
philosophically treated, if he chose, with ex
amples, elucidations, and imitations. When
he arrives, you had better send a committee,
and request a lecture of the sort; I've no
doubt Dr. Mackenzie would undertake a re
view of it for the benefit of posterity. And
perhaps our old friend John Chambers could
be induced to deliver a sermon on the moral
deductible therefrom. Wigfall, believe me, is
no coward. He is what might be fitly denomi
nated a poetical bully. Last fall, out in
Texas, he got into a dreadful row with A—,
friend of his. Straightway he sent a note,
to wit :
" Compliments of Wigfall to A., and de
sires to know if be will accompany him out of
the limits of the State."
To which A. replies, instanter--
cc A.'s compliments to Wigfall, begs to as
sure him that he (Wigfall) is too d—d
toward to fulfil any such engagement,' if en
tered into."
Several days [elapse. A. hears nothing of '
'Vlgfall. At length one rainy afternoon, as
he was sitting; alone in his room writing, a
gentle rap came upon the door—a rap as soft
as the tap of a dove. " Come in!" The door
slowly opened and there stood Wigfall !
a Well, A., " said he, meekly, a the lion and
tee lamb will sometlma meet, you know."
you," retorted A., " which is the lion,
and which is the lamb here ?" Wigfall studied
a Moment ; heavenly smile mounted his
unusually ruby countenance; magnanimity,
amiability, and pliant condescension beamed
eat of every pimple ; he paused—but for a
moment ,- --and replied
" Weil, A., old fellow, you shall ha lion, and ,
be lamb."
Quoth A., thereupon " Sit down, then,
mid take a little of that whisky, and quit
making a. jack of yourself."
On my honor, I record but the simple truth
of history, when I complete my story, by as
suring you that, before leaving the room, Wig
fall had obtained a temporary loan (not yet
liquidated) of five hundred dollars!
The thing called "Chivalry" is a queer jade.
I know of no more tilting, jilting, flirting, de
lusive substance. It is a good deal like the
toast of Meal himself, " invincible in peace,
invisible' in war!" The chevaliers wear long
hair, like Samson of old, and Roger Pryor.
They swear, too, like forty-seven pirates, and
drink whisky worse than a Comanche. They
like a cock-tail better than a cockade, but do
not object to the latter, if it is tipped with
ermine and turned up with gold lace. They
like to be patted upon the back, cheered and
encouraged, and don't object to a puff well
worded in the newspapers. Chivalry is like a
wasp, biggest when in the egg. Witness
several illustrations. Ancient chivalry was
marked for ardor, modern chivalry for adroit
ness; the heroes of the Crusades exhibited
much boldness and little discretion in getting
into a fight; the modern hero illustrates the
inverse rule, and is much guided by one guar
dian principle, bow to dod g e a bullet."
Robin Hood was an ancient member of olden
chivalry; Wigfall and Pryor of the modern.

We left New York, as you are aware, on
the sth of May, under sealed orders, and
soon dame Rumor, with her thousand tongues,
began to whisper about our destination. After
many speculations, it soon became a settled
fact that we were bound for the harbor of
Charleston, there to blockade until further or
ders. On our road, all vessels met were order
ed to hetiVe to, and boarded and a strict exami
aation maga, that they did not contain any "ma

flict, and, , after' being warned of what they

"'"
' On the night of the..loth of May, we drop
ped our - anchor just ;Mtside of Charleston bar.
The following morning dawned upon us clear,
calm, and pleasant, and as Kr. Sun showed
himself above the horizon, we discovered the
now world-renowned Fort Sumpter. My feel
ings at the first sight of this place could not,
at one time, have been aught but pride, as one
of our beloved country's defences. But do
circumstances alter cases as well as feelings!
I could now 'View it only with disgust as the
spot in which our time-honored flag was tramp
led in the dust. And by whom? A parcel of
curs, whom " it would be base flattery to call"
men.
After breakfast we up anchor and com
menced duty, cruising around to intercept any
vessel which might attempt to proceed in or
out. During the morning we spoke one or two
vessels from Liverpool, bound for Charleston,
and warned them off. While we were at din
ner we were all startled by the drum beating
to general quarters. Every thing was in con
fusion. The news ran like wildfire through
the ship that two steamers bearing she Confe
derate flag, and behind whom were a number
of armed launches, were standing out of the
harbor for us. The ship was, in an instant,
cleared for action, and the scene, which but
a moment before presented nought but care
lessness and ease, assumed a spirit of war.
Both batteries
.loaded;with 15-seconds shell,
men, armed to the teeth, standing at their
several stations, in death-like silence, waiting
to drop the ports and run out the guns.
The command was given. Down drop the
ports, out go the guns, and up runs the dear
old "Star-spangled banner " to the peak, and
as it unfurls to the breeze, none could but feel
the reseoesibillty that was placed upon him,
and V lateed right he was to fight for. Vain
were hopes. No sooner had the steamers
notice}; our readiness to meet them than they
halted:; one returning at her best speed into
port, the other keeping in shoal water, down
the coast, the launches keeping inside the bar.
We continued in chase three hours atter the
steamer, but to no avail, as they would not
come out of shoal water, so that we might
bring our guns to range on them, and they at
last turned and proceeded back to Charleston.
The retreat was beat, and all left their quar
ters with feelings of bitter disappointment, for
as expectation had run so high, all were "spoil
ing for fight;" as we learned afterwards
from a schooner we boarded from Charleston,
we had been taken for a large transport
loaded with troops, and trying to land them,
and this force had come out to attack us, but
found they were coneee for more than they
bargained for. Bed e pt our rerta np half
an hour longer, I could Lew have the pleasure
of writing that we bad eater minuted that batch
of rebels, but too mr,:e caused our cheap
pointment.
At daylight the folio:ripe ...orning, May 12,
three sails were reported from the masthead,
all standing in for Cletriesten, We changed

Liverpool, bound - for Charleston. We in
formed them that they would not be allowed
to enter, but must steer for the North, to
which they consented. We then proceeded
to board and examine the two other vessels,
which both flew the English ensign at their
peak. On. informing them of the state of
affairs they willingly assented and headed for
Boston. We then had our attention drawn to
the General Parkhill, who bad changed her
course, and was laying close in, exchanging
signals with the shore, upon which, feelieg it
oar duty, we gave them acc quid pro quo, in
the shape of an eleven-inch shell from our
forecastle pivot, which struck in the water
close under her bow, showing her we were not
to be trifled with ; so' she again hove to, and
we sent an armed boat alongside and took
possession, bringing her out where she might
feel the protecting influence of our peace.
makers, if necessary. Her master was then
brought on board for examination, and as her
carpenter (who is a stro Union man) ave
, hints that he thought ho ng
might throw some
light upon the subject in hand, he was also de
sired to Come aboard, and he testified that the
captain had flown the Secession flag publicly
in Liverpool, and was a rebel—in proof of
which he showed the Secession and Palmetto
flags, which bad been used. We immediately
put a prize-crew on board, giving the old crew
a chance of taking the oath of allegiance to the
United States and joining us, which six of
them did. The rest were put in irons, and the
General Parkhill, in chirge of Midshipman
Schley and a prize-crew, filled away and
headed her course for Philadelphia, where
I hope she is new anchored safely—the
Niagara's first prize. Our whole proceedings,
no doubt, were seen from Fort Sumpter and
the shore ; I can imagine their chagrin and
rage, but we are not done with them yet ; but
will act the Shylock to the last farthing.
In the afternoon we boarded the English
bark Monliguna, from. Liverpool to New Or
leans, putting into Charleston for water, but
would not allow her to go in, so supplied her
ourselves, warning her off. Whilst supply
ing her with water, a ship was noticed stand
ing in, and as soon as the boat could be
unloaded of the water and hoisted to the
desits, we started in pursuit; as there was a
fine breeze blowing at the time, and ahe had
considerably the start of us, but was to lee
ward of the Light, we waited for her to
make another tack, knowing that she could
not go in on that one. She guessed our mo
tive and preferred running ashore to being
overhauled, so they beached her, and as she
was too close in to the fort it was useless to
send boats to her. Oa Monday afternoon (the
13th) a steamer stood for us from the harbor,
carrying English colors, and a flag of truce at
the fbre. On coming close to, she proved to
have the English Consul on beard. A boat
was lowered, and he came aboard us and
transacted. his business, which was of a pri
vate nature. On leaving, be received the
salute of nine guns. Whilst the Consul was
on board, some of Our boys got into conver
sation with the boat's crew alongside from
the steamer, and they were informed that it
was the intention of the rebels to arm every
thing they had and come out and attack us
the following day. So we waited in expecta
tion for the aforesaid attack, but were doomed
again to disappointment. They had, I sup
pose, after sleeping over It, come to the con
clusion that dleeretion wan the better part of
valor. The evening of the day of the great
combat which did (not) take place, we de
scried a steamer coming from the North,which
upon near approach proved to be the United
States steamer Huntsville, from New York,
with despatches ordering us to proceed to
Havana and fill up with coal, and then to Pen
sacola, to take part in the bombardment of
the forts there held by the rebels, the Hunts
ville to accompany us as a tender; and here
we are steaming it along, side by side, under
the rays of the hottest kind of a Southern sun;
but this, instead of melting away our ardor,
rather cements it more strongly, and I hope
that in my next I may be enabled to quote
the great speech of Gasser, cc Veni, ma, eke !"
The officers and crew are all well, full , of fight
and most sanguine expectation.

Action of Southern Baptists.
BT GRAYMEARD.
Theoretically, we have in this country a/Proroe
ment of Church and State. The wisdom of this
has been demonstrated ; so mach eo that any at
tempt at this day to unite them, would be as un
popular as Secession itself. For years the cry has
been, North and South, that there was too melt
meddling with po Moat affairs in pulpits and
rooltelastioal bodies. Doubtless, there has been
some ground for this outcry, but there has cer
tainly been great Inconsistency on the part of some
who have joined most loudly in it. Crimination
and recrimination has been the rale; the South
charging the ministry of the North with turning
their pulpits into political rostrums, for the pur
poSe of abolishing slavery, and their own clergy in
turn prostituting their office by attempting to bol
ster up and deify it as the king pillar of their:deal
political fabric. The wrong tendency of this med
dling has in every inntanoe resulted in the mischief
predioted—namaly, alienation end secession among
those professing the same creed Generally this
misohiet is perpetrated is the name of patriotism
—love of eountry—loyalty to the powers that he.
Now n man may be a true patriot, and yet not be
a Cferintam ; in fact, some of the pureet patriots
that have ever lived were heathen ; but he mast
read the Bible carelessly, indeed, who does not
know that every true Christian must be a Wrset,
from the last that refusing to be 'subject to tb.
Government under whiob a man lives is on ;
a virtual "resistance of the ordinance of God,"
as it is expressed in Romans rail.
It is singular, therefore, that men professing
supreme allegiance to the Xing of kluge—which
of course involves all such minor duties as being
law-abiding eitizene—should at such infinite cost
to their sacred calling, stoop to participate in
matters foreign to their sphere, and intrude their
counsel where it is neither asked nor wanted.
What would a General Synod, or a Religious Con
vention, or a Yearly Meeting, or . a General Az
sombly, or any other august ecclesiastical body
think of the National Congress, or the State Legis
lature, that would spend days in controversy over
some ecclesiastical measure intended to direct, or
in any way control or affect, the future actien of
either of these bodies? They would regard it as
an unwarranted interference, if not an undue as•
sump lion of power. On the same wimple ex
aotly, the State neither asks nor requires the
counsels of the Church. she invariably tenders it
at her peril, sad if ever the day arrives In this
country when such interferenoe 'than he recognized
as right, then good-bye to our national boast of
practical separation between Church and State.
Conservative men in all denominations are well
aware of this feet, and spare no efforts on all fitting
occasions to counteract the tendency in that di-
reotion.
The diametrically opposite action of religious
bodies, who have for centuries professed the same
form of faith, whenever they descend into pclitiae,
Is itself sufficient proof of the impolioy of such
action, and we cannot but think, after reading the
recent proceedings of certain Southern religious
organizations, that tbe Father of Lies gains a sig
nal victory whenever ho succeeds in sectionalising
a church. The published proceedings of the late
Baptist-Convention, held at Savannah, Georgia,
including their address to the country, and the
resolutions adopted, are now before us, From the
"Address," it is evident that the clerical leaders
of the South were as little prepared for the uneai
mity of sentiment in Northern pulpits, on the side
of law and order, as were their political allies to
hear of the enthusiastic unity of the Northern
masses against treason. We quote from the docu
ment as follows:
"While the two sections of the land are thus
arrayed against each other, it might naturally
have been hoped that at least the chalrehes of the
North would interpose and protest againet this
appeal to the sword; but with astonishment and
grief wo find churches and pastors of the North
breathing out slaughter, and clamoring for san
guinary hostilities with a fieroenees which we
would have supposed impossible among the die.
oiples of the Prince of Peace."
Here we have araisrepresentation to begin with,
uttered by a convocation of ministers against their
brodiran ordained to the same office, I have hoard
clergymen of almost every denomination preach
since the war commenced, and without an ex
ception their prayer has been that the effusion of
blood might be averted, and that peace might be
Speedily restored. And why should anyihing be
deemed 'impossible among the disciples of the
Prince of Peace," when these professing to be
plait could, in Southern pulpits, thank God, ex
ultingly, for his blessing (?) upon the cause which
a few days before bad, without provocation, under
taken to murder Mope Anderson and his IMOD ?
The resolutions are a strange medley of bad prin.
olploe, bad blood, bad politics, and worse theology,
and fittingly open with the following palpable
falsehood :
"Resolved, That impartial history cannot Charge
upon the South the diadolution of tho Union."
Perhaps not; but impartial history will hardly
acquit the South of having attempted a dissolution
of it. There are many good men among us, who
sincerely sympathize with those in the South who,
against their own moral convictions of right, are
obliged to render obedience to a usurpation, and
thus, apparently, to sanction the iniquitous mea
sures of traitors; but let no such sympathy be
wasted upon the members of the Savannah Con
vention—representing, as they claim, " a constitu
ency of six or seven hundred thousand Baptists."
They, to quote their second resolution, " most cor
dially approve of the-formation of the Government
of the Confederate States of America, and admire
and applaud the noble course of that Eloverriment
up to the present time." Here we have a aped.
men of the real " Simon Pure" Secessioniet, The
Kingdom of Glory, judging from thee. resolutions,
would seam to have dawned upon the "Southern
Confederacy" with the advent of Jeff. Davis, and
hie immaculate Cabinet, who are in some danger
of being canonized, even before they can be pro..
perly numbered among the suglorions army of
tt martyrs " to the cause of Secession. In the
third resolution, the sanction of Heaven is implored
upon treason, legalized piracy, and repudiation,
and prayer Is devoutly offered that those who are
guilty of these things may be rewarded—as they
doubtless will be, though, perhaps, not in the man
ner indieitted in the resolution, which we quote as
follows :
Resolved, That we will assiduously invoke tbe
Divine direction and favor in behalf of those who
bear rule among us, that they may Blip exercise
the came wise, prompt, elevated Statenltariehip
which has hitherto characterized their measures;
that their enterprises may be attended with suc
cess; and that they may attain a great reward,
not only in seeing these Contederate States pros
per under their adminietration, but in contributing
to the progress of the transcendent Kingdom of our
Lord Jesus Christ.
In Gila - same religio.prolitico series of TO
solves their di hundred thousand oonstituente
are toll that there is a " reign of terror at the
North ;" that " violence is committed upon un
offeriding citizens ;" that " the North threatens to
wage a warforei upon the South of savage bar
barity, to devastate their homes and hearths with
hosts of ruffle= and felons, burning with lust and
rapine." It will be seen from thin how thoroughly
these Southern evangelists mistake the spirit and
temper' of the free, civilized North for the Beret
barbarism of their own section. No such brutality
as they allege we intend to oommit, hRs entered
the mind of Northern citizens. General ]lioCel
lan'o noble proolamation to his troop and the
citizens of Virginia, on entering their soil a few
days ago, may be regarded as oharaoteris Go of the
temper of the North and the General Government
in this respect. What a wide difference between
the high Christian tone evinood In the proclama
tion of that gallant young chieftain, and the low,
vulgar epithets of this religions Convention in
descanting upon matterd with *Melt they have no
business to meddle !
But in the next place, not to lose sight of their
cloth altogether, these gentlemen, become devout
and religious. They "resolve to pray for their
enemies," and wind up with a recommendation to
the °hurdles of the Baptist denomination in the
Southern States to observe the first and second
days of June (to day and tomorrow) as days of
humiliation, fasting, and prayer to Almighty God,
that lie might look with mercy and favor upon
them
Some persons are exceedingly sensitive—per
haps properly so—about speaking disparagingly of
anything religious. We must not - forget, how
ever, that the most religions people on earth, in
the days of our Saviour's incarnation, were the
Pharisees, and yen know how terribly Lie de
nounced them to their faces: " Woe unto you,
Scribes and P'aarisees, hypocrites! for ye compiler
sea and land to make one proselyte ; and when be
i s m ade, you make him two-fold more the child of
hell !" And who doubts the applicability of this
to every convert to the doctrine of Secession?
Again,' Woe unto you, Pharisees, hypocrites! for
you pay tithes of mint and anise, and onminin,
and have omitted the weightier matters of the law,
judgment, mercy, and faith. Woe unto
you! for you make clean the outside of the oup
and of the platter, but w ithin they are full of en
tortion and excess. * You are like un t o
whited sepulohres, which indeed appear beautiful
outside, hut are within full of dead men's bones,
e n d of all uncleanness." snolt was the fi n ed
picture drawn by the Seemlier of beasts of the re
ligious hypoorites of his day. Chrsittanity is
always right ; religion is often wrong.
Of oonraa, it would be unjust is moms that the
Convention which pasaed these resolutions were all
hypocrites. If they are :tot, however they have
