It was the first prayer ever puhlicly offered in that church for the success of the Democratic party and its nominees, though hundreds of prayers and cxhortntions had been made against that party. When the old mirn finished, there wnsa silence of half an hour. and the meeting then adjourned, And thus ended the political preaching in that church. From that time forward the min ister attended to his Gospel duties, and left all political questions to besetued by the people outsidoof the church. Again the society prospered, and there was a better feeling among its members~mtre Christian charity, more Motherly love.‘ The old man’s earnest prayer was answered in more respects tlmn Jne. ~ PLAYED om.

[From the New York Cancasinn.] COLONIZING THE ABOLITIONISTS. The Philadelphia Journal suggests the idea of colonizing the Abnlitionists instead of the negwea. The suggestion is a capital one- {lt Is it wonder it hasnot already been thought of” by our..sagacious Chief Magis trate. Thehe are numerous considerations which rendifr this pxojebt more feasible that Lincoln’s lan of colonizing the negroes.— In the firs}: place, there Are not so many Abolitigmis as there are negroes: and sec ondlyrthe gntry could a“ great deal better afford to snare them than the Degrees.— Thpy could also, at any fair valuation, be obtained and much cheaper rate.

Indeed, there are obvious tens us why the cbuntry would be infinitely better ofi‘ without. them. Ever since they st i'ted ufiin New England. some thirty years nee, they havelbeenn pestilent. mischief ma ing setuf fn'nalies. They kept the country i con tinual-hob water before the war broke o t and were not. satisfied until they brough that on.

The little success that has attended fiheir plans for suppressing the rebellion, compared to the means employed and exhausted, shows that its sectional and political efl'orts have not met with Dixine favor. ‘ @Speaking in relation to a sermon by one Dr. Price, on the French reVolution, Burke says: ‘ “Politics and the pulpit are terms which have no agreement. No voice ought to be heard in the church but the healing voice of Christian charity. The cause of civil lib erty and civil 'gOVOment gain as little as that of religion by this confusion ofduties. Those who quit their proper character, to assume what does not belong to them. are for the most part ignorant both ofthe char acter they leave and the character they us sume. \Vholly unacquninted with the worldin which they are so fond ofmeddling, and inexperienced in all its affairs on which they pronounce with so much confidence. they have nothing of politics but the pas sions they excite.
