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

,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.

This book is a collection by the emin
ent novelist and poet, William Gilmore
Sitnins, of South Carolina, of tho war
poetry of the South, written during tho
terrible years of the "rebellion." A ! nn
index to the feelings and passions of the
Southern people during that time, it is
invaluable, showing tho intense and un
dying love for the South which was '.be
underlaying principle upon which tbey
acted throughout their grand and glori
ous struggle for independence. The
poems are all more cr less beautiful.
Sumo arc inaguificent, whilo none are
commonplace. All breathes a spirit of
intense patriotism a;d love of country,
which reminds one of the brave old days
of '7fi-"the times that tried men's souls."

work with the greatest rapidity and tho

The great speed with which this machino
performs work will bo understood from tho
statement that it is geared to give six strokes
