Political Preaching.
We regret deeply, says the Baltimore Ameri
can. to see an increasing propensity among
tlergymen cf the Northern States to dehble in
politics. We have long since recovered from
she shock given to our old fashioned ideas of
propriety by the harlequin performances of I].
W. Beecher, who has now become the. profes
sional clown of the pulpit, and whom we ex—
pect, as a matter of course, to see as oi‘scn
standing on his head as on his feet, and enter
laining the spectators of the Sunday amuse
ments in Plymouth Church with regular exhi
bitions of ground and lofty tumbling. All the
sinners in Mr. Beecher’s congregation having
been saved long ago, it is of course eminently
proper that they should now devote themselves
altogether to repeating of the sins of other
people, and he himself being freed from the
bondage of all grovelling prejudices, all unfor~
giving feelings, and all unholy ambition, is. at
perfect liberty, instead of crying out, “ oh,
wretched man that I am,” with that old fogy
apostle, who feared lest when even In: had
preached to others he might one day become a
castaway, to go cheerfully turning summer—
saults up the road to glory. We look naturally
to Beecher for all sorts of spiritual easualities,
religions frolios, and sacred profanity, but we
had not supposed that any clergyman in the
Northern States, of really solid parts and con
sistent Christian character, would, even by im
plication, justify the Sunday stump speeches of ‘
Republicans preachers, delivered by those j
“ Sabbath-loving” sons 'of the Puritans, amid 1
shouts of laughter .at pulpit clap-trap and huf- {
foonery.
We regret, however, to observe that, in a late
volume of Addresses by Dr. C. S. Henry, a.
clergyman who has hitherto enjoyeda high rc
putation as a scholar and divine, political
preaching, such as that of Beecher and Chapin,
(though he does not mention them by name) is
justified. Dr. Henry declares that the country
is gmwing worse rapidly, and says it is “infi
“ nitely important to the salvation of the nation
“that. the pulpit should be free, that its voice
“should be heard—one great, strong voice—
“ against all public wickedness ;” and he warns
the clergy that if "they do not thus speak
‘~ out,” he is “not sure but. they will have to
- “give way to something better, or to some—
“ thing worse.” If Dr. Henry includes slavery
in the wickedness against which the clergy are
required to cry aloud and spare not, we cannot
but- admire the improvement he has made upon
the practice of Christ and his Apostles in their
preaching, who, surrounded by slavery in its
worst form, not only never preached against it,
but enjoined slaves to be obedient to their mas
ters, and declared that “ if any man teach
“otherwise, and consent not to wholesome
"- words, even the words of our Lord Jesus
“ Christ, and to the doctrine which is according
--' to godliness, he is proud, knowing nothing,
“ but doting about questions and strifes of
“ words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings,
“ evil surmisings, perverse disputings of men
“ of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth,
‘~ supposing that gain is godliness; from such
“ withdraw thyself.” (First Timothy, sixth
chapter, third, fourth and fifth verses.) It will
thus be seen that Dr. Henry assumes to be wiser
- and better than the Divine Founder of the
Christian _Religion and His inspired Apostles,
and, we may add, 01‘ the whole Christian Church
for eighteen centuries, including all the great
lights of the Church of Rome, the Greek Church,
theChureh of England; including all the great
doctors of the Reformation, and all the critics
and commentators who have ever lived, from
the time of Christ to the beginning of this sn
perticial and fanatical century. If the age is
growing worse, it is certainly not for the want
of political presehing, of which the North has .
gm; ,1 sin-foil. m years, nnd which has produced
“suns altogether dillerent from those which
Dr. Henry indicates. “ A Layman,”in :1 com
municntion to the London Ciel‘fslizv'lz o%ol‘o‘,
“if,“ that tluring the last fourteen years,
whilc monsoon-3' has increased In}; ant/flung in
I-{Y}llllfiilllln. the New School Preshyteries have
(in-roan! hy the loss of "€53 [lune-am! commuti
esztts, .‘L decline which began with the introduc—
tion of abolition preaching in that. body:
whereas, in the seven years precmlingthnt date,
during which it steadily excluded from its pul
pits political agitation, it added to its commrr
nion fully-seven thousand. The Methodist. and
ilnptist Churches have been rent. asunder by
the some cause, and the New England Congre—
gationalism have been so dosed and tlruggcdby
the some clerical empiricismthat they are spi
ritually and ecclesiastienlly at death’s door, and
those of them who are not are seeking refuge
in those churches where political preaching has
not yctl.»ecn introduced. if Christianity were
not. a Divine rook against which it. is not pos
sible that the gates of hell shoult‘. over prevail,
it would have been destroyed long ago by the
wolves in sheep’s clothing who prowl about. its
sacred precincts. No one respects political
clergymen; if they know their own hear I
they cannot respect themselves. It. is the lust
of power and secular influence which has been
the curse of the Church in all ages; it is a. (le
sire to serve two masters, and not. the love of
God or of man, which is the secret spring of
political preaching.
In this connection we must also be permitted
to express our profound sorrow that reputable.
clergymen of the church in the Gulf States,
who have hitherto confined themselves to the
proclamation of the Gospel of Peace, and been
eminently useful both to their denominations
nndto society in consequence, are now buckling
on the armor of the church militant, wearing
cockades in the pulpit instead of the Cross. and
consecrming liberty poles and other emblems
of revolution with prayers to that God who has
said: “Render unto Crnsar the things that are
Caesar’s.” Not a liberty pole can be raised, nor
5» cannon fired off, but we hear of some clergy
man “improving the occasion” by giving the
sanctions of religion to war in its most horrible
form, to civil war—the nearest approach to a.
hell upon earth that fallen humanity has ever
sufi‘ered. We are persuaded that. these estima
ble clergyman have not deliberately weighed
the character and consequences of a. position
into which they have been hurried by the pop
ular excitement. Let the cause of South Cores
lino he ever so just, the place of her clergymen
is in the pulpit, proclaiming the Gospel, and
they are as much out of their proper sphere
in figuring at liberty poles and artillery parades
as Yancey 01' Keith would he in the sacred desk.

INCREASED Dlzouxn FOR. Fin.nAlt:~lS.——While
most branches of trade are declining under
the depressing condition of political ati'airs, it:
is curious and significant to observe that. the
sale and manufacture of all kinds of weapons
and munitions of war have increased ilt’ll’nensel-V
in every parlor the country for the past frw
months. Since the Presidential campaign
commenced there has been an advance of two
hundred per cent. in the number or" arms man
ufaczured and sold—the largest increase being
observable since the election. -
rl‘he demand for erms- in Europe—which may
be said to be on a war footing from north to
souihahas drained the. stock of these articles,
and eompleiely tested the activity of the manu
facturers to keep up with it. The arming of
volunteers in England prodnce‘l a. like result. in
that. country. Then the condition. of Italy,
Where the people are new free to carry arms,
has produced a. large demand. The troubled
position ot‘ our own country, too, has kept. our
manufacturers so busy that. they are not at the
present. time able to fill the orders on hand
from the Southern State governments, and the
difi’erent. associations and individuals from
whom they come pouring in everyday. These
orders vary from a single gun or pistol up to
scores and hundreds, and come in so fast that.
they can with difiicult-y be met. Many of the
disafi‘ected Southern States, it is known, sent
agents to Europe to purchase arms ; but. they
found it impossible to procure them there, and
had to fall back upon our own manufactories.
Gov. Brown, of Georgia, in a recent message,
declared that. the contracts for arms with the
North had not. been fulfilled, and urged the
immediate establishment of factories for the
manufacture of firearms at. home.
All these facts show that. the whole world at.
the present. time is engaged in furnishing itself
with weapons of destruction. to be used be
tween man and man in direfnl conflict—al
though with the exception of Italy alonethere
is profound peace everywhere—a sleep, it may
be, that forebodes a. terrible awakening—N.
Y. Herald.
1n the New' York Herald of yesterday our
citizens were surprised to find a telegram from
Washington, announcing the resignation of
Chief Justice Taney, and also a. notice of the
life and services of that distinguished Judge.—
Whether the telegram was, like the biographi—
cal sketch, manufactured in the [feudal office,
we cannot say, but the unscrupulous character
of that journal certainly ‘j ustifies the assertion
that a full knowledge of the falsity of such a
report would not have prevented the [Jerald
from publishing it as a fact. That the rumor
is, however, utterly destitute of foundation, we
need scarcely assure our citizens. We merely
contradict it so promptly in order to relieve
our readers elsewhere from any suspense upon
the subject. The Chief Justice, we are grati
fled to learn 7 enjoys now betterahealth than he
has done fora. long time past. He has been
for some three weeks engaged in the discharge
of his judicial duties here, disposing of the ap
peals in Admiralty from the District Court,
and he has not only heard, but has decided,
every cause upon his docket. In one or two
of these cases, several new questions of mari
time and international law have been presented
for his consideration, and the opinions he has
delivered upon these points have been marked
by all the clearness and vigor which are so
characteristic of his decisions in the Supreme
Court. We are, therefore, glad to repeat that
the Herald’s statement is absolutely without
foundation; and We may say, moreover, that.
we have reason to believe that the Chief Justice
does not contemplate handing in his resigna~
tion to Mr. Buchanan now or at any other time.

Honmnw ACCIDENT TO A CHILD.——ln Boston,
a day or two ago, a bright little boy, only four
years of age, while gamboling in the vicinity
of a glue factory, accidentally fell into a. vat of
melted glue, sinking up to his waist in the in
tensely hot liquid. When taken out, the skin
peeled from his legs, presenting a horrible
spectacle. There was also internal injury, as
he lived only about twelve hours, apparently
without any suffering, however, and retaining
his consciousness so as to give the particulars
of the accident.

Mr. Mann, in his letter proceeds to refer to
the advnxiiage which Milford Haven commands

of six days would be effected in the passage to
Milford Haven, of a. week in docking vessels,
of £6O sterling a trip in the item of wages to
a ship of one thousand tons, and upwards of

in insurance on ship and cargo, while avessel
will make one round trip more to Milford lla

the superiority of Hampton Roads over New

saying that. the Great Eastern will want a. freight

will amount to $75,000. if it, be furnished by

DEATH or THE FAMOUS EARL or DURDDXALD.
The. English papers record the death of Thomas,
Count. of Cochranc, otherwise known by the
title of Lord Dundonald. The «incensed was
one 01" the most celebrated and suecessfui sail~
ors that. the world ever saw. He was born on
the 14th of September, 1775, and was descended
from an ancient Scottish family, the principal
member of which was elevated to the rank of
Count in the year 1613-3. Up to the your 1831,
the period at. which the deceased succeeded to
the title of his father, at which iime he had
already wasted all the estate by chemical ex
periments, he {ms known by the name of Lord
Thomas Ccc‘nmne. Referring to his services
in the British nary, tho Loni-Sm: Times says:
Young Cochranc joined his firsi ship exactiy
at the time that; the Revolution was triumphant
in Fran-2.9. and its principles were proclaimed
in tones of thunder to a terl‘iiietl worm. I: was
an age of adventure, and he turned the opening
to good account. In five or six years’ time he
was the idol of seamen and the Wonder oi" the

mouths accomplished greater feats of urine than
the most pompous inscription ever ascribed to
Louis XIV. He actually captured no fewer
than 50 vessels of the enemy, mounting botwuen
them 132 guns, tin-. 1 one of these prizes was a
powerful frigate oi" 32 guns and 5111! men.
But (he little cruiser‘s own turn came at lasri,
and she was seized by three l-‘renc‘n line-of—llat
tlc ships. Lord Cochrane thus became :1. priso

in the French navy, and investigating the
sources of that superiority which the French
vessels undoubtedly possessed. He seems also

occasion, he was again chased Ly three ship-'5

Finding that he could not escape by speed,
he hauled down every soil at, the some minute,
and brought his ship abruptly to :1. stand still.
His pursuers, surprised by so unexpected a
trick, shot past him by the impulse of their own
speed, and before they could turn upon their
anticipated prize, lte'was oil“ and away. His
resources, indeed, in such straits, were inex
haustible. Once he deceived an enemy of su
perior strength by hoisting false colors. The
pretence passed muster, but. the enemy pre
pared to send a boat off, which would have ex
posed ihe trick. Lord Cochrane upon this, ran
up the yellow flag, to denote that there WlLSlD

slood aloof accordingly.
A ROMANTIC .‘MAID 0N HEP. Tuners—A.
young man, named James Graham, arrival in
town yesterday morning, in search of his
sister, a young woman of about seventeen
years of age, who had run away from home,
and neglected to leave any trace of her where
abouts; She had been gone about. two weeks,
and the chances of finding her were very slight,
but the young man was sanguine, and displayed
a daguerreotype picture of her faircountenonce,
which attracted universal attention by its stri
king beauty. The face had a dreamy, senti
mental cast, and the languid blue eyes gave it
and expression which would have insured the
picture a run in the print shops, under the
popular title of Meditation. The assistance
of an officer was procured, and. with the aid
of the delicate tracery of the sunbeam—roman~
tic medium between extremes—a haehman, or
some other species of public conveyancer, was
found, Who had “hauled” the runaway beauty
from the ferry boat to It hoarding-house. 301111
was familiar with the locality, and moreover
was positive that the fugitive was still there,
1 as he had' seen her pensive eyes gazing through
i the third~story blinds betimes in the morhiug,
i when he came down town after breakfast—-
i Romance suggested that she was pining for a
1 lover, but the driver said he guessed the hash
1 made her sick. In consideration of a dollar
or two he volunteered to find the place, and in
a few minutes the sentimental young lady was
‘ locked in the arms of her brother, who stopped
to its]: no questions, but seized a valise and
packed up her little duds in no time at all."-
She demurred slightly; he expostulated, and
promised all sorts of things, to which she lis
tened very unconcernedly, merely interroga.
ting in a quiet way, when he got. through,
“Can I have Billy?” " Have the devil if you
want to I" shouted the excited young man, “so
you only come home.” A sudden light gleamed
in her line eyes, and, without. further demur,
they made a vigorous start for the Queen’s do
minions. No explanations were made, but
there was something about that “Billy” that
threw a, world of light on the case. She had
subsisted on a small amount of money which
she had brought with her, and was intending
to teach school, or indulge in some recreation
usual to the flummery ideas of young ladies in
the bud. Her schooling would probably have
been in the capacity of a learner rather than
ateacher, but for timely interference of her
relatives.—~-deit -4a’i't'rfs-W, 93'3-

renowned Dr. EATON ’s IxrsleFE COBDIAL, which every
mother should have. It contains no paragoricor opiate
of any kind whatever, and of course must be invaluable
for all infantile complaints. It will allay all pain, and
soften the gums in process of teething, and at the same
