Vrtss. 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. Literary Notices.

The drawbaoir - on this edition is that the illustrative engravings are mere caricatures, coarsely executed, and incorrect in costume and other details. "Father Tom" did r/ot Sport a shaven bullet head, like a "Briar of Orders Gray." However, it is easy to improve this cheap edition, by tearing out the engravings.

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. ASA Texecuann.

EDITOR rnsis : As the afternoon is quite warm and old Morpheus does not appear inclined to receive me in his fond embrace, inclination "as wells daty prompts me to write and let yourrutgaerons readers know a little about our Present prfice_edings. 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 terial aid" . for the rebels in the coming con flict, and, , after' being warned of what they might expOct,,, ; if found cruising around: the Southern ports, lot proceed.

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 our uotzree and seen.. Ili - pursuit. On ap. eeehing e.es a r eie far Lk.avc, to. Tile iirst*one oes.tded Woe ellefemexican colors—the Gen. Parkhill, of Charleston. from 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 !"

TWO CENTS. RELIGIOUS. 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.
