Whoseover.therefore resisteth the piniier. resistetif
the ordinance of God ; and they that resist shall re
ceive ttkthompelves danination.—ltumans 13: 2.
Wm 'Hebrews, like the haughty Cava
liers-of the South, were an uneasyand seditious
people, Their noted ifisubordin ation to heathen
governments arose from their vanity, and their
vanity .arose.from their fancied superiority. As
'the Hebrew Constitution was from God; it be
,came'a =mini with them that the whole world
, was theirs, and that they should have supreme
eontrol in all the earth. Now many of the Chris
'tia'ns• at „Rome, before their conversion, had
'been 'Jews, and were therefore liable to fall
into the great political error of their country
men. To prevent this seditious spirit, and to
enfold the peaceful character of the Gospel, the
apostle commands them AO be subject to the
higher powers, and 'stating "-that, there is no
power but of Gud." The following facts are
taughtin the text:
. That civil government is a Divine institu
tion. "Whosoever therefore resisteth the power,
resisteth the ordinance of God."
The good of society is the fundamental reason
en which all governments are based. It is
therefore a matter that cannot be dispensed with
at pleasure. God has ordained it, and the cou
atitutiou of the universe demands it. The Jew
ish was a divine instrument, but
with that exception, all other nations have been
permitted to form their own plans of govern
' Meat, and to select their own rulers. And from
this peintwe may view the fair proportions of
the Temple of Liberty, founded upon the rock
•of Freedom. Now-as the people cannot rule
by their unanimous voice, and to permit the
minority to rule would be manifestly unjust, it
therefore devolves uporrithe majority to govern
'the state. And this is the genius of the Consti
tution of the United States. There are two
ways in which the ChiSf, Magistrate may be
chosen, and these are either by Divine appoint
meat or by Divine Providence. When £he
Lord said to Samuel, "Arise annoint him, for
this is le,"then was David the .son of Jesse
made king over all Israel by Divine appointment.
And when Abraham Lincoln was elected Pres
ident of the • United States by a constitutional
majority of sixty-four in the- electoral college,
he became the Chief Magistrate of this great
• Republic by Divine Providence. But if after
' youliive counted the votes that elected 14M,•
you weigh them, you will learn that the intel
ligence and morality of this great nation made
biln President. Learn that it is sin against dod
to resist the civil government, because 'tis re
bellion against God. , ,
• In order to secure the blessings of the Con
stitution, a Legislative, Judicial and. Executive
Department of Government are appointed by
thef people, to make, ,explain and execute the
laws made in accordance with its provisions.
An oath of office is administered to the.Pablic
servant, binding him to be true-to the Consti-
tution, and to govern according to its spirit and
letter. Now if the Chief Magistrate is faithful
Whig oath, there is no just gloand. of opposition
tkihina v it, matters not what his opinions or mor=
shi may be; and every overt act committed
-against him is treason, and they who commit
;:stich tit are traitors, and all traitors are sin
ners iigarrist theTrecept of the text. Thoughts
of treaScianre the bloody initials in war's crim
40iiritms. Words of treason are dragon's
teeth sown thickly in human hearts; and acts
of treason are the hands of an assassin reeking
with a brother's blood. On the occasion of the
admission of Missouri into the Union,Mr. Cobb,
_of Georgia, said, "a fire has been kindled which•
Only seam of blood can extinguish." This was
• the kepi:llo.in the slaveholder's battle-cry, and
in a short time after the election of Mr. Lin-_
Gob i -the . brave cavaliers of the land of cotton,
fired the first gun at the Star of the West, which
was conveying provisions to a feeble and starv
.ing garrison of United States troops imprisoned
within the walls of Sumter. And thus the civil
,year was -begun which now spreads- its raven
• Wings over all this Eden land, and unfolds its
gory banner where once flourished the tree of
Liberty. And now, draped in weeds of mourn
_
pg,Columbia weeps for her children because
'they are not, and that those who resist civil
government shall receive to . themselves damna
. um' They shall be condemned and punished.
The COnstitution Which they seek to destroy
shall be their judge. This instrument declares
that treason against the United States shall con
fiat in levying war against them, in adhering to
their enemies, giving them aid and comfort;
. and every rebel has done this, whether he be-
anailedin iron or coated with copper. They
sludl be punished by the hand of the Chief blag-
Istrate. "for he is the minister of God to exe
cute Wrath upon him that doeth evil." And
now the armies of the Union are marching for
-Ward to conquer,_ and with the force of the
dieadfui Simeon, will sweep into oblivion the
curse of the continent. But will the Constitn
4ion 'condemn, the Scriptures- forbid, and the
litagistrate Punish an evil and God not requite
it I But lettis come to the point. The divine
institution of Slavery, so-called, is the rock upon
Which the soul mongers would build their tern
plehf Liberty. We have read of a man who
built his house upon trio...rock, and-of anothr
wt 3) built his house upon the sand, but.here are
so e who build their house upon nothing. •In
no part of the divine code has God ordered and
appointed the institution of Slavery. Itis there
fore no man's duty to become a slaveholder.
The Slavery which God permitted among the
ifebreivs was voluntary, limited to a certain
time, compensated, and consisted only in ser
vice. "Canst thou, and honored with a ehris
tian name, buy what is woman born, and feel
- no shame; trade in the blood of innocence and
Plead expedience as a warrant for the deed 7"

SPEECH OF *Lox. sconEim.
One oftheni‘ es' ipointed.and pimgentspeeches
41e4ered iia tlie,presetit'Congress, was madeby
Hon. Glenni Scofield, of Warren, during a
recent debate in Committee of the whole. We
subjoin the conclnditig portion of it:
Tbree'years have passed—years fraught, as it
seems to us at a distance, with great ruin to the
South, with loss and heavy sorrow, as we know
to the North. How stand the three parties
now 't The disunion emblem is still npborne,
less firmly than at' first; and the area on which
its hateful shadow falls is two-thirds less thanin
the beginning. Still it flies its signal word—
"division." All the proclamations andmessag es
of Davis, his Governors Mid Generale, all the
laws and resolutions of his Congress and State
Legislatures talk of nothing, ask for nothing but
division. 'Will the gentleman from New York,
(Mr. Wood,) who talks to us so much about
peace, take notice that in all those official doc
uments, if they can be called official, division is
the only aim and end proposed?
How stands the Union party? Well, sir, our
flag, I believe, is still floating, held more firmly
than in the beginniug,.sustained by the courage
—no, sir, that is not the Word I mean exactly ;
by the patriotism of the American people—and
that is not the word I want to express my par
ticular shade of meaning; it is upheld, I believe,
by a stronger sentiment than courage orpatriot
ism—by the sense' of duty - and stern conscience
of the American people. And if you want to'‘
find which is strongest, pride and courpe ou
the one hand, or conscience and'sense oeduty
ou this other, read the history of the Cromwel
lititi war, and ,- you will learn that the proud
Cavalier has to yield in' the end to the consci
entious Round-head. And so it will be now.
The motto of the Union party is the same as it
was in the beginning. We unite the language
of Jackson, "The Union must and shall be pre
served,".and the language of Webster, "Liberty
and Union, now and forever, one and insep
erable."
But where stands the neutral party; the par 4
of " "ands;' and excuses? Have you been
here for three months now, occasionally presid
ing over this House, and do not know that
there they stand—(pointing to the Democratic
side of the Htill)—asthey stood three years ago,
occupying the same- position of bloodless neu
trality? They have not changed their ground,
though they give a different reason for holding
it. They do not say that coercion is unconsti
tutional. They do not now generally say that
it is impossible, 'nor that anything you can give
to the rebels by, way, of compromise will make
their-condition any-better than it was before they
rebelled. They generally' concede that the re
bellion must he suppressed by force of arms or
the Union be divided. But they say the Presi
dent is always' so unfortunate as to select un
constitutional 'theorist to effect what they now
see, though they did not at first, Liu constitu
tional purpose. And so they remain spectators ;-
spectators in a war ;which involves the life of
this nation and the fortunes of forty millions of
people which interests are' associated - with it.
More than that; it envolves the fortunes of the
oppressed and middle classes allover the world;
for ours is the world's representative Republic.
But to do them justice, I must say, they are not
indifferent spectators. There they stand, glass
in hand, or "nose all spectacle bestrid," 'look
ing anxiously for some fortunate mistake in
council or some cheering disaster in the field,
which will fulfill their evil predictions and
justify their position_of neutrality before the
world. Their music is a line of Yankee Doodle
and a half line of Dixie, filled out with the "rub
a-dub-dub" of complaint and evil prophecy.
.But, although neutral, they are not idle.—,
They have a great deal to do. They have to see
that this war is conducted with Christian ten ,
detness on our part, though met with savage
atrocity on the other s They have to see that
treason-tainted,'slave-earned wealth escapes
confiscation, though it impose a heavier burden
on the honester earnings of loyal men. They
have to seethat your credit is decried, and the
taxeg necessary to ;support it denounced; and
then to complain to the country that " legal
tenders" are not equal to gold.- ThrOave to
ittic that a 'favorite General has an unlimited
and untrammeled command, and that he is 'not
held responsible for. opportunities neglected tir
battles lost. They have tccsee that all possible,
atleast all constitutional objections are thrown
in the way of the exercise of the elective fran
chise by the Union soldiers in the field; Mid
that the freest elections are secured to the un
pardoned secessionist in the rebel and border
States, They have to see :that practical amal
gamation goes on undisturbed by any unconsti
tutional interference with the slave system of
the South, while they falsely charge theoretical,
amalgamation on the virtuous people of the
North. ' They have, too, to see that that portion
of their followers who overestimate the abilities
of the negro or underestimate their own, or
perhaps have a proper appreciation of both, are
held to party vassalage by constant dread of
negro emulation. They have to see that their
weaker brethren are educated in the beliff that
the negro is only fit for a slave and can never
be anything else ; and then to distress them with
apprehensions that they may yet he compelled
to compete with him in the industrial and pro
fessional pursuits of life, where brains, not
color, will ascribe, to each his just measure of
success.
These are only specimens of the multitudinous
labers of this neutral organization. If I were
to go on with a full •catalogue I would exhaust
your patience and my strength. I want, how
ever, to call the attention of the committee to
one thing more. •
The main allegation,•the one always_relied
upon to justify their neutrality before the world
is that the war is conducted , with a view of
overthrowing slavery as well as the rebellion.
If this allegation were true, what a position for/
a statesman to take; what a position for any
man to,take who expects to leave a name that
will be. remembered when he iR gone, and a
,posterity condemned to bear it! It might do
for James Buchanan—for God in his infinite
.mercy has provided that no child shall wear
through his life a name of such deep dishonor—.
but for nobody else. But, sir, it is not true in
the-sense in which it is alleged. It is not true
that the war is carried on for the purpose of
abolishing slavery. Those who believe it mis
take an incident for the purpose of war , --the
means employed, for the end desired. You
might as well say when we battered down Pu
laski and Sumter that that was the object of
the war.
The President's great proclamatimi is urged
in evidence of this allegation. The President
saw that Great Britain was fiirnishing arms to
the rebels. He invited that nation to desist, and
accompanied his invitation with some promises
and some threats. Great Britain desisted. The
President; saw that the slave was furnishing the
rebels with food,• clothing, labor and fortifica
tions; and he invited the slave to desist, accom
panying that invitation with no threats, but with
a single promise, the promise of freedom. That
is all there is in the proclamation.
31r..WAnswortTE--The gentleman states that
the object of the proclamatrori of emancipation
was to disturb the labor which supplied the re
bels with food, &c. I know that the President
- has given that as the object of the proclamation;
but I ask the gentleman if that can be so, in view
of the fact which - he recollects, that the procla
mation itself advises the slaves to remain quiet,
and continue to labor for_ wages
Mr. Scortun--4 do not now recollect the
language of the proclamation, but I do not un
derstand that - he advised them to work for the
rebels. The advice given was designed to avoid
apprehended insurrections. The purpose of the
President was to diminish the support furnished
$o the rebel cause by the slave. This purpose
might have been strengthened in the honest
heart of the President by some kinder sentiment
etit frauktin Viepositorp, ,fitard) 23, 1864.
than a cold military policy, and if so I will leave
it to others to see that he is properly denounced.,
It is enough for me to know that it was a mas
ter-stroke of military strategy which no General
hair, fo my knowledge, as yet publicly condeniu;
ed. - As far as possible, the slave has since.
brought us not only his labor, but an army of
one or two hundred thousand men. Who now
wants his promise recalled? If not recalled,
who, wants it violated in the future? - Who
wants the colored army, disbanded and Sent back
to their rebel masters ; and white men drafted
in their stead? Will you of the neutral party
dare to answer these questions in the affirma
tive 1. If you carry the next election will you
violate the President's promise to the 'slave'?
Will you say- to the negro soldier, "Leave the
battle-fields of our country an seek again the
cotton-fields of your rebel master.. Your blood
has stained, though nut dishonored the one, the
unpaid sweat of your brow shall - hereafter
moisten and.enrieh the other?"
Again, tlei President saw, or rather the peo
ple saw—for our cautious President, I am glad
to say, does not attempt 'to do the. people's
thinking, and sometimes hardly keeps out of
the way of the wheels of rapidly advancing
popular sentiment-4hat every State redeemed
from this unrepublicati system of labor was thus
placedbeyond Confederate desire. Such aStitte
was considered by tlic rebel - builders unfit for
an edifice whose corner-stone, was slavery,—
They war ed no free State in their Confederacy
to preach anti-slavery by a prosperous example.
They said this at.Montgomerywheti they made
their constitution, and have always had it since..
Wekltew it was trne if they had not said it at all.
If - the Border 'States become frecrthey do not
want them in the Confederacy, while without
. them their territory becomes 8o insiguificent that
they do not want a Confederacy.-
The Administration, therefore, encouraged
emancipation in the loyal Slave States as the
best mode of bringing the war to a successful
issue. Under that encouragement 'Slavery has
been abolished in the District of Columbia and
three or four States. The neutrals have op
posed and denounced this progress.,step by step.
If intrusted with the power at the next election
they are pledged to undo all that has been so
Wisely done. They, will re-e - itablish Slavery in
the District of Columbia, and, so der as their
influence will go, in all the border States. They
must, to be consistent, re-enact the Slave code
and rebaild the Slave prison, and having got all
things in readiness, they must call upon their
panty friends, and armed with lassoes and hand
cuffs, start out upon a grand hunt for the eman
ciliated ana scattered bondmen. „
On the other hand, the Union party have re
solved'that, with the blessing of God, this coun
try shall not only remain an undivided country,
but, now that the necessities .of the war and the
humanity of the age requires it, it shall become
a free country. The shadow of your flag shall
never grow less, tier shall it darken the life of
the humblest man beneath it. The Union shall
be restored, and the United States, the simple
name that Washington gave us, -shall be the
name and indicate the character of this country
for all time - to come. And it shall be a name
that the poor will love and the proud fear all
over the world.

Nothing that is not wholesome, genial and restor
ative in its nature enters into the composition of
/19STETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS. This pop
ular preparation contains no mineral-of any kind,
no deadly botanical element, no fiery excitant, but
is a combination of the extracts of rare balsamic
herbs and plants with the purest and mildest of all.
diffusive stimulants.
It is well to be forearmed against disease, and, so
far as the human system can be protected byhuman,
means, against maladies engendered by an unwhole
some atmosphere, impure water, and other external
causes, lIOSTETTER'S BITTERS may be relied'
on as a safeguard.
In districts infected with FEVER AND AGUE,
it has been found infallible as a preventive, and ir- -
resistible as a remedy; and thousands who resort
to it under apprehension of an attack, escape the
scourge; and thousands who neglect to avail them
selves of its protective qualities in advance, are
cured by a very brief course of this marvellous me
dicine. Fever and Ague patients after being plied
fer months with quinine in vain, until fairly satura
ted with that dangerous alkaloid. are not unfre-
quently restored to health within 'a few days by the
use of IdOSTETTEWS BITTERS.
• The weak stomach is rapidly invigorated and the
appetite restored by this agreeable Tonic, and hence
it wads wonders in cases of Dyspepsia and -in
less confirmed forms of INDIGhSTION. Acting
as a gentle and painless aperient," - as well as upon
the liver, it also invariably relievet the CONSTIPA
TION superinduced by irregniart action of the di
gestive and secretive organs.
Persons of feeble -habit, liable to NERVOUS AT
TACI{S, LOWNESS OF SPIRITS, and FITS OF
LANGUOR, find prompt and permanent relief from
the Bitters.. The testimony on this point is most
conclusive and from both sexes. - •
The agony of BILIOUS COLIC is immediately
assuaged by a single dose of the stimulant, and by
occasionally resorting to it, the return of the com
plaint may be prevented.
