CoiTC?pti)iCi7i! of 11k ftJluwrii1. i. i r 2X Aimc i s7 NCMnKU SEVEN. j fAvrr (Sir j r I u my last I stated that ymir argument in favor ol suppli riitinj; (lie assistance of Mary, instead of appealing to (!oJ Himself, seemed to no n very strong arirumnnt against it. Awl my first remark was that it dishon ors the character of Mary. In order to show that there is some . advantage in sr preaching God through her media tion, you represent her full of rucrey, but entirely wanting of justice. Con wjuctitly she wishes every sinner to lie loigiv-ii, without any regard to the rc- I'liriiiueuts of justice. If this were so, pud s.tic possessed Mich powers of inter cession as you oscrihe to her, then she would certainly ask that every man fhould be saved, and her request would be granted. Some ol our neighbors who do not care to be religious in this world, but wish some ground of hope for the next; would feel very comfortable il you could prove this to their satisfietion. Yet I think they would uot f'oel very easy in view of find's inflexible justice, if they regarded their salvation as de pending upon the intercession of a crea ture to whom ''docs not belong the attri bute of justice." Hut Mary is no such woman. If she were, her intercession would be of verv little use ; and she would be a miserable creature, charging (lol with cruelty ,v!vnofer His justice is honored in the nm.-liuieut of tiansgressors. Second. Your argument reflects great '-Honor upon God. You represent 'iitu as doing at the request of Mary what lie would not do if He acted in accordance with His own attributes. ou say " His Pivjne justice would of. tt"!i require the punislimcut of the sin. tier rather than li is forgivencs?;" but when Mary iutercedes justice is waived, for ''lie will refuse her nothing which she asks of Ilitn." A good mmi would lo almost anything for a woman, where there was no principle at stake. -1 right-minded magistrate would pardon any criminal at the request of a virtu, ous woman, if he could do it consistently with his oflicial oath. Rut if jttstia: requires the punishment of a criminal if he ought to suffer, and it would not be right topurdou him then we should say that a magistrate who should pardon not belong the attribute of justice,') ut the request of a woman, (to whom does who should yield justice at the request of one who had no regard for justice we should call such a man deficient in moral (vctitude. Rut by your argument this character is ascribed to the Judge of all the earth. Again : We are informed, on the best authority, that " Gjd so leved Ike Yt'orld, that Jfn iave JL's onlj hr-rntlin Sun, that V'UOfcOEVEtt BELIEVETII IS IltM skull not Jtrrish, but fume errrlattitvj Jife." In view of this declaration it is not dishonoring God in the highest da rec, to suppose that afrer all a sinner might be lost while believing in Jesu i, utile.? he should ask the mother of Jesus to intercede for him ! fio l has given His Son to purchase our salvation, the salvation ofrvery one that nilin' to lit sated, His word abound with iuvi 'tations, entreaties, commands, for nil to eoine, shall wo dare to imagine Ho is unwilling to forgive any that comply ? Third. In like manner your argument greatly dishouors Christ. lie is man as Well cs God ; and by reason of his -human nature he is able to "sympathize with our iulirmities," like auy human friend. lie was "tempted iu all points like us we are, yet without sin." He became a pattaker of flesh and blood, and though a Son learned obedience by the things which he sull'ure 1 ; and this was "that he might be a merciful and faithful High l'ricst. For iu that he himself bath suffered, being tempted, he is able to succor them that arj temp, led." Awl beeauso we have such a High Priest, able to sympathise with air weakness, as well as to make satis. .'notion for our sins, the apostle exhoris, lleb. 4, 1G) "Lot us therefore come "boldly to the throne of grace, that we jnay obtain mercy, and find grace to l.elp iu time of need. i ou discourage 4 big "boldness," or at least excuse the want of it ; and direct the sinner to Ma j-j rather than her divinu Son. But the apostle says, "Seeing then that we have a great High Priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God," who U ''able to save them to tho utter UwJt ;Latome ucto Godly bira, seeing !ie ever liveth to make inlcrcission lor them," "let us draw near with a true heart, in full iismrancj of faith." The Writer of tho Epistle to tho Hebrews, it is evident.Jwould regard "the idea of the sinner" begging tho intercession of Mi. iy instrnd of Christ, as anything but "beautiful." I fear ho would judge such a one destitute of that faith with out which it is impossible to please God ; and would remind him of that parable of the Good Shepherd : "He that enter, cth not by tho Door into tho Sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber., verily, ve. lily, T say unto you, I am the loor of the sheep." St. John, th. 10, -i. Your argument dishonors not only the person but the icor'i of Chiist It throws dis credit on tho Sacrifiio of Calvary, as if that were not sullieient to satisfy divine justice and secure the pardon of evert sinner that believes in Jesus. Divine justice dues indeed, not "often" but tt tatt, "demand the punishment of the sinner rather than Lis forgiveness" tin. til he Li H'.tw ri Christ ; taut i.'u-n justice and mercy unite in requiring his for giveness. It is abundantly set forth in the Seriptur-s that God can, consistent ly with his justice, forgive, every sinner that balioves in Christ; that he is willing that all should dine invites, entreats, yua oimnttiinh all meu to couia to Iliui by that "way" which he has provided. The only sacrifice indeed to expiate the guilt of and t ; man was offered onee for all on Calvary ; and the only wedia'or between God and man, that any sinner needs, is that High Priest who, having "offered one sacrifice for sins," has ' entered into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for u,s.,' The difficulty is not tha: God is unwilling to forgive sinners for Christ Vf sake, but that sinners are un willing to be forgiven for His sake alone. Christ Himself said, '-Ye trill not come unto me that ye might have life :" "this is tke condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men lured darh-ifms tailor l.'fin lijht. The idea that God "so loved the World, that he gave his only begotten Son, that ichoso. era- believeth iu him shall uot perish," that Christ, who "loved tho church atiu j ire himulf for it," should need the intercession of Mary to m.-.ke them will, nig to forgive a repenting sinner, is so preposterous that ii idiouid come only fiotn those who ate "euemiei of the cross of Christ." I trust you rtill allow that I am justi Ued in withholding assent from a doe. trine whose foundation is so shadowy, and even in protcstim against a mac- .. i tiee which is not supportcf l; any Scriptural jirccrpt or example, and which seems to me to cast dishonor upon the character of God and the cio-ss of our Lord Jesus Christ. Very truly yours, KVAXGKLIST. The Future of the Sort It. The Xatimvil Lttelliicnrtr utters but a trite sentiment, when it says that the I future of the South is in tho hands of its young men. How many of them are qualifying themselves to manage its factories, control its railroads, mine its ore, work its machine shops, and culti vate its plantations? Professional men it has in abundance able lawyers, ac complished physicians, cloqueut speak, era. These have their uses, but tho growth of a State depends less on them than the character of the meu who man age its industrial enterprises. What is mostjiceded iu tho South to day is that the young blood which fought for it so gallantly should work it as determinedly. Ou tho plantation, in the shop, iu tho factory, there the South is to effect its true restoration. Tho young men who dug trenches and fed on hominy and pork, who went in homespun gray, and slept in cold or rain or shine under the canopy of the heavens to further the fortunes, as they believed, of their ua tive laud, cau now do noble service by laying hold of its plough handles, turn ing its latches, guiding its spindles, handling its locomotives. Hut there is want of capital. No matter. They have youth, health, hope, ambition, and good abilities. They have every incen tive for which to .work. Rcg'm with a ill, and success will crown their efforts. Gen. SchoQeld has decided that Dr. Watson, who was tried by tho civil courts of Rockbridge county, Va., for the murder of a negro and discharged, shall be tried by a military commission ou tho 17th inst A New Jersey Central Kailroad train struck a agon iu which a man aud wo man were seated, at Round l'rook, kil ling both persons instantly. A break man of a gravel train on the Erie Rail way was killed by beiug run over near Peoborn City, ou Wednesday. ,1rresl of Snrrtitt, The evidence taken by the Military Commission in June, 1835, proved John H. Surratt in the assasinntion of I. in. coin. It was at the houio of his mother that tho meetings wero held ; up to the week of tho assassination ho had 'been journeying between Richmond and Montreal ; 15ooth was his constant com panion ; Mudd concealed him in the woods near his house ; Payne consulted with him ;-rIlzerodt confessed that Sur ratt induced him to join tho conspiracy. His name was the' first in tho indict. ment. Had there been any doubt of his guilt, his flight would have removed it, for though none of tho principals were more frequently seen up to the !5d of April, on the afternoon of the 1 1th he was scn for the last time, boated and spurred, ready for his escape. Prom that time tho very existence of John Surrat was a mystery. It was believed he was dead that lie had revealed the names of his fellow conspirators ties capo or that he was seeretely impris oned. It was noted that no reward was offered for his airest. Yet, as time pass ed on, John Surratt was forgotten, till the other day came tho startling news that he had been arrested by tho Auer ican Consul-General in Kgypt. Of his wanderings little is known. Tt is said that ho was rpengnizrd n n Liverpool Btcamer shortly after the mur der. Then came the rumor that lie wis serving as a private soldier in the Pi re's Guards at Rome. Wo know now that he had been a soldier in the Papal Zouaves at Vcroli, and served under the name of John Watson. The fact be came known to Mr. Rufus King, our Minister at Rome, who telegraphed to our Government, and was instructed to secure his arrest. Mr. King conferred with Cardinal Antonnelli, who issued an order for his seizure. Surratt was tak-' eu ; he was imprisoned, and oo removal from their hands, and jail, guarded by five soldiers, broke from their hands, and jumped, it is said, over a precipice more than one huudred feet high. id escaped into the Italian territory. Mr. Marsh,our Minister at Florence, obtain, ed telegraphic instructions from the Italian Government to have all the sea ports of Italy watched to prevent his escape. He wis soon supposed to have embarked in a steamer for Malta, and a dispatch, to that island arrived too la'e to detain him. Another was sent to -llexandria. and when Surratt stepped upon the shores of Kgypt, lie was seized by the strong, fiii--reaehing nrm of America. United A'tates detectives, it is said, have notched him since October. Upon (S'urratt'd presumed connection witii the rebel government. Andrew Johti:-oii charged Jefferson Davis with complicity in the assassination. New revelations arc exj eeteii fix in his trial, T he i ul.lie may be disappointed in that, yet, it' .I.ihii w'nrriitt could be io'du 'ed to confess before the death wl.'rli is al most certain to be his fare, there is no rca-oiiab! e doubt but that be might ti ll the whole story of Lin coin's assassina tion from the beginning to tho end.
