Ivot agreeing with this wholesale reproach upon Cleveland girls, one of them remarked that there wore two things she wished especially to do to go up in ft bal loon and to take ft long jaunt on foot, and proposed to her companion that thoy two should walk to Union villo, Lake Co., forty- five miles from here. The proposal, which was at first made in fun, was soon talked of in earnest, and when one present offered them S30ifthey would walk the distance in two days, the offer was taken readily. Thursday morning last they started, and many ft laugh was raised as they started off, clad in walk ing shoes and calico dresses, as to the appearance they would make when returning in ft bus after having walked four or live inilas. But the young ladies had more perseverance than they were given credit 'or. and Thurs day night found them at Montor, twenty-four miles from Cleveland, somewhat ired but by no means exhausted. Friday morning it rain ed, but having an umbrolla they started about eight o'clock, and at six o'clock that evening presented themselves at the door of a relative of one of them at Unionville who doubtless thought the girls were crazy to have walked that distance. The nsxt day, Saturday, they returned to their homes bv railroad and claimed their (30. ' The feet ol one of the pre-destrienncs wem somewhat blistered, but the other was perfectly well. .

As a matter of interest, at present, we give the following result of ' desperate battles (ought in Lurope since lb 11: On the heights, four miles from Salamanca, in Spain, tho English and Spaniards under Wellington, totally defeated the French under Marmonr, on tho Tld July, 1812. The allies lost 5,200 men, and the French 10,000. At the battle of Smolensk!, in Russia, in 1812, tho French loss was 17,000, and that of tne U:issianB lU.iAU. At llorodiuo, on the 7th Sept.. was fought a desperate battle between the Russians and French. The French lost in killed, woun. ded and prisoners, 50,000; and the Russians about the same number. The survivors ol the French army.from the Russian campaign. were not more than 35,000 out of an army of J"l : . ow.iAvmen. ., At Lutzcrn, in Russian Saxony, on the 2nd May, 1812, the allied Russian and Prussian forces were defeated by the French under Napoleon, the French losing 18,000 and the allies 15,000 men. At Iiau'zon, in Saxony, on the 21st and 22d May, 1813, a battle took place between the allies and the French.in which the French loss was put down at 25,000, and that of the allies 15,000. . . At Dresden, in Saxony, on the 2Cth and 27th August 1813, the allies were defeated by the French. The loss of the allies was about 25,000, killed, wounded and prisoners, and that of the French about 12,000. At Leipsic in Saxony, in October, in 1813. a desperate battle was fought, which lasted three days, and the French were totally de- leaten ny tne allies. .Napoleon lost two mar- 8lml8, twenty generals and 0,000 men. The allies lost 1,7'JO officers, and about 40,000 men. At Vittoria, in Spain, on the 21st Juno, 1813, the English and French fought a battle in which the French lost 7,1 AX) men, and the English O.iHU men. At Toulouse, in France, Wellington defea ted tne f rencn under Soult, on the 10th April, 1814. The French loss was 4 700; al lied army's loss 4 280 men.

The objects which he simultaneously beholds he will describe with wtnderful accuracy. In- oeed, he is remarkable for his descriptive pow erg. . ' , - Mr. Saul is ft man of extreme diffidence, and the peculiarity of his visual construction has been carelully concealed, and has heretofore been known only to some of his most intimate friends. The back of his head is nuito flat; but he has long hair, which effectually conceals the largo eyes, which are gor.orally proieiea uy a oanango. as ll tno above is not wonderful enough, the correspondent of the I'oal makes the following wonderful statement: "lie is highly intelligent and social in bis habits, and owns considerable property, which he has accumulated by honest industry." From Hie Now York Uorald of Jane 12th. Tt is understood that, a fow days since a Wall street broker.by name E. Belknap, of 60 wan street, was arrested at the suit or the Springfield Mount Vernon and Pittsburg Rail, way, on ft charga of disposing of bonds of that company. The person in question gave bail and was liborated. To-day further development appear In the ease. It seems that in Decembor last Mr. Belknap, who had been for three years, a customer of the Union Bank, and stood well in the opinion of the late President, Mr. Deming, presontod himself to that gentleman, and stated that he desired to pay off a loan of $78,000 whieh the bank had made him on stock sec lire ties. lie handed his check on the Union Bank (not certillcd)to Mr.Doiu- ing, who then returned him his securetics. On leaving the bank Mr. Bulknap stopped at the teller's desk, and presented a cneck for $00,000, observing that he had just been negotiating a loan. The . teller cortiliod the check without hesitation. At 2 P. M. that day. the then cashier discovered that the bank had - been thus drawn upoH to the extent of $1G8,0U0, and had no funds of Mr. Belknap's in its possession. On calling oil Mr. Belknap for an explanation, ho was told that he (ur.u.)had been disappointed in obtaining a loan from ft private banker.and oould not make good his account. - The secu rities which be had obtained from Mr. Deming that morning he slated . that he had forwarded to Boston, and would not have them again in bis possession until his father's estate had been divided. Alter some discussion the cashier at length obtained tho above mention ed bonds on the Springfield, Mt. Vernoo and Pittsburg tlailway. which are sud to be worth about $30,000. Mr. Deming then made a loan to Belknap of the amount obtamad by him, and awaited the course of events. The Bank has since obtained ft mortgige ou Belknap's share of his father's estate, which was worth $00,000. He ' is the son of the ' late John Belknap, of' Boston, and has for some years been engaged in bu.iinosii as ft bonk note broker, with extensive connections among ft certain class of country Banks. 0''IdoWish I could lie' cumd of lying in bed so late In the morning," said a lazy husband, turning round on his pillow.

The Free Labor Cause in Missouri The Freo Labor ssntiincnt is sweeping over Missouri like a whirl wind. Slaveholders are seoing that the "institution" don't pay that free labor fur excels slave and are becoming Free Soileis, and are sending their niggers down the river. As a late evidence of tho onward progress of the Emancipation cause, we would state that ft free labor organ the F. ee Democrat has just been established at St. Joseph, under circumstances that seem to foretokon for "it ft successful career. The St. Louis Denvwat, in noticing the Star in the West, says: St. Joseph is the second city in the Stale of Missouri. ' Relatively it is growing ts fast as St. Louis, and promises in ft few years to be a place of great importance. The appearance of the Free Domociat in such city is ft sign of the wholesome condition of the public sentiment in tho commercial centres of Missouri. The terrorism of tho border rutflun upoch is gone forever. Presses shall no more be thrown in the river. Free speech is tolerated now wherever commercial activity prevails. Light is breaking out in unexpected quarters. Calm reflection has taught even the prejudiced that the perpotuation of slavery in Missouri is incompatible with her development. Wher- evor intelligence and disinterestedness are found, the superiority of free labor is recog nized, The river towns especially realize the wisdom of encouraging immigration. The settlement of Kansas has taught them some useful lcssons, and shaken their faith in tho adequacy of slave labor to the performance of the task which demands all the energies of the State." This new organ of the right will undoubtedly effect a great and good work in western Missouri. Ignorance and slavery cannot Jong withstand the efforts of a free people, directed by a free and able press.

The Republicans o( .Kansas have carried ft majority of Delegate, U the Constitutional Convention. Theoleclionwas sharply contested, and the first reports, from the river counties were favorable to) the Democracy, bu full returns show ft majority of thftt lor the Republicans.. Coinniunira tions. For tht Republican, Review of Mr. Brewster's Reply to Mr. Whiteman Mb. EniTon: Mr. Brewster in bis published sornion charges Bishop Junes as northern man with being southern in all hit feeling. That is with be ing "in all his feelings" in favor of slave hold ing. Secondly; with being "cringing syco pliant." Mr. Webster defines cringing t mean shrinking, bowing servilely;, and syco phant to mean a parasite; a mean fiatlrrer of great men ; a deceiver ; an importer. That is. Mr. Brewster charges Bishop Janes with being ft mean fMerer of great men; a deceiver; an imposter. And yet, in his rojily be has the recklessness to say "I am ready to admit that he is a respectable man, and I never breathed any other sentiment about him." 0, TitUTn, WIIRHE IS TUT SACRKDNKSS O.SHASIE, WHERE IS THT BLUSH? He charged Bishop Janes and the members of the conference over which he was presiding with being so odiously and contemptibly, cringing and syco, bantic, that he ami they, ought to be mobbed; and yet he has the audacity to say I never breathed a disrespectful sentiment about him. He not only fully justified tho mob in what they did, but earnestly expressed the wish ".hat they would mob more of them." In his sermon he affirms that the conference over which Bishop Janes was presiding, was mado up of with out even one hnnerabb exception slave-hold ers or the defenders of slave-boiling; and that they, as well as he, are cringing sycophants; so mean and enntcmptibly sycophantic that ''wore the the south to.bray one of them ir. a mortar with ft pestle yet would not his cringing sycophancy depart from him." And yet in his reply he baa the 'strange assurance to say "I had no idoa of slandering the M. E Church or even of attacking it." Does he mean that he had no idea of attacking and slandering Bishop Janes and the members of the conference over which he was presiding? If so, the Lord pity him. The Lord knows, and you readers know that such ttatement would te untrue. If he does not mean this his reply is the merest evasion; for I had not charged him with slandoring the M. E church, but with slandering Bishop Janes and the members of the Arkansas conference. In bis reply Mr. B. retracts nothing. He iu-deed says as ft matter offoite" he willnot de. lend the charge of sycophancy against Bishop Janes; yet "os a maMer of fact" ho still main tains the charge. Not only so; but virtually brings the same charge against Bishops Wangh and Morris,and by implication against all the liiahops in the M. IS. Church. In his sormon Mr. B. not only charges the mo rubers of the Arkansas conference with being cringing syo-ophants, but affirms that they are all nf them either slave-holders or the defenders of slave- holding; yet in his rcply.while he admits that ho has no evidence that any one of them ever owned a slave, or ever in any way defended slave holding, he wishes your readers to bear in mind that he said what he did, not from any knowledge of the members ol said conference, "buttrom a knowledge of what more northern conferences of the M. E church are." His ftrgument.thrown into logical form, runs thus: I know that all the members of the more northern conferences in the M E ohurch are either sUve-holders or the defenders of slave-holding, "and presuming that the mem bers of the conference cer which Bishop Janes was presiding were no better."comes to the conclusion that they are all of them either slave holders or defenders of slave-holding. Now these charges against the more nor' hern conferences are as groundless and false, as those against the members of the Arkansas conlerence. W ill Mr. B. inform us in which of tha more northern conferences are all Its members either slave-holders or the defenders of slave-holding? He is well aware that there are no such conferences. How strangely opposite ultraisms meet and harmonize! The southern fire-eaters are vehemently exclaiming, these ministers of the M. E. church ought to be mobbed, because they are all abolitionists seeking tie destruction of our peculiar interests. Says Mr. B., (sus tained by the ultra-abolitionists of the north,) I agree with you exactly it ought to be dono; because they are all of 0tem either slave holders or (Ite defenders of slave holdinghut as it would be an unpleasant task for us in the north, 1 wish you would do it. "It is the only cure for them, and even this promises lit tle." " Now, Mr. B., do not be discouraged; could yon raise courage enough to mob all the minis tela in the north, and could you in duce the fire-caters to mob all of those in the south, it would promise much. We would have a fine time of it, and the promise of ft better time coming. Just think of It, the fire-eaters aro mobbing mothodist ministers; and Mr.' B. is echoeing back, "I with you wmtld mob nine uf them." .This hhydrcplio- bia abolitionism intensified. See how Ileiod and Pilate have made friends. - Mr. B., why nut call your brethren around you and do this work yourself? Cannot tho mercury in the themometer indicating your courage be raised - sufficiently high to wake so bold strike? Blow upon the fuse agiiu and see if it will not rise. Now fa your time. Such ft deed would render your name immortal Your aeaJfnr the condemnation bf Methodist Ministers Iscks nothing but knowledge. la coming forward to defend Bishop Janei and the motnbersof the. Arkansas conference against the groundless slanders charged upon them by this defamsr of Methodist minUterflt it is no part of my duty, and is, eertaim'y, no part of my design to attempt to ' prove (hem innocent. Erery man 1 entitled to b regarded innocent until he l proved guilty. He having made these charges, ban the affirms.-live, and is morally bound- either in the dm of induhittable evidence to prove them true, or openly to retract them. It i no difficult task to prove that all his pretended proofs an the merost fallacies. lie first introduces froar certain letters addressed by Dr. McFerriir , through the Nashville Advocate to Bishop-, Morris, several long extract to prove that Bishops Waogb, Morris and Janes, have of dainad Elders and Deacons who wereslave--holders, but brings noproof that nj minister or miniaters in the M. E. Church ever ad- 1 milted the truthfulness of his staUraentft.-' Unfortonatefy for Mr. B'i. witness, he, a well a Mr. BM was osee minister in the W, ' E. Church. , Both left bettuse they ima;." ' ined themselves too pure to remain in, tor ' communion. The one left because in his ea ' timation she now is, and ever has been, uncompromisingly opposed to slavery; and faf ever seeking its extirpation. The other left because in his estimation she is made np of slaveliohlers and the defenders of slavelMing, How strongly they differ, and yet bow exact' ly they agree! Is not Mr. B. aware that her apostate sons seldom speak of her either re spectfully or truthfully? The grossest misrepresentations, the vilest slander that haver ever been heaped upon her, have com from ( apostate sons. Of this Mr. 2. ia furnishing ample illustrations. . . ' Did you observ the empluitie faun, the sarcastic manners, the exultant modulations of bis voice, while enunciating ia reading in his sermon the defamatory statement object' ed to In this and in my former article? What was it that sweetened up hit soul so much just at this point? The deeper the vale of poverty, ignorance and degradation from which she has taken her apostate sons the more she has done for them, and the higher she has raised them, the more thoy' hate and love to defame her. Small as is ther communion from which Mr. B. hails, she has her apostates in the use of whose expart testimony I could prove ber lo tw exceeding ly vile. He next makes garbled quotation from Dr. Durbin, representing that when ministers apply lor admission into an annual eon- feience they are "met with tht usual question, (0 sltamt,) are you an abolitionist?" and if so they are rejected, etc. Now, Mr-B., does, or ought to know that there is not an Annual Conference in the M. E. Church that meet her applicants with any such question. All who know anything about the church know that all such representations are slanderous and false. There may be in the church ft lew hair-brained,hot headei ultrnists.who will soon - follow thi example of Dr McF. end Mr. B.in goiog out from us because they are net of us, who have proposed such questioiis;but no an nual conference docs any such thing. Bishop Junes, in common with the other Bishops, signed an address to the General Conference) ' 'n which doubts are expressed whether ft certain mode of excluding all slave-holders from the church would be constitutional; and so eager ia Mr. B. to convict him, that he infer from this that he is "southern in all his feelings." His zeal is truly worthy ot better cause. Again says 2ur. B.,"Bisbop Jsnes bat laid bis episcopal hands on the heads of slaveholders." Now, If Mr. B. affirms that b ha done so knowing them to be slave-holders. I simply dony it, and demand the proof. Instead of all the minister being either slaveholders or the defenders of 8laveholdnj, as Mr. B. affirms, if there i in the M. E. Church traveling preacher who ia a slaveholder (which I do not admit) he i such in violation of the express rv.U and lev of the church, and the Anneal Conference of which he is ft member i tlone responsible. On pago 215 of the Methodist Discipline we have the following rule; "'When any traveling preacher becomes an owner of slave or slaves,' by any means, he shall forfeit his ministerial character in our church, nnlesa he execute, if it Ve practicable a legal emancipation of such slaves; conformably to the law of the state in which he lives." If the members of the Arkansas Conference are, as Mr. B. affirm slaveholders or the defender of slaveholding why do the ilnveocrnls of Texas mob and drive them nut? Says Mr. B. because they belong tr ft church whose ministers are either slaveholders etc., , "This ia truly ludicrous and ab surd. If Satan cast out Satan how could hia ' kingdom stand? So far as Mr. B. i ft war Bibhop J; nes has neither said nor writU anything against slaveholding- and- hence lie infer that he i in favor of slavery. So far as I am aware Mr. B. has neither said nor written anything against IVlygsmy and bene 'n the use of Mr. B.'s logic I infer that he isin ,. favor of having plurality of wive. In ft ' letter written by Bishop Jsnes and publish in the Christhn Advocate fttxt Journal of , June 10th, lfleO, we havs the following at his opinion of the rctson why he was mobbed rn Texas: "What was the real mothe? Tht answer it found lo their (tb mob's)'ow declarations. Judge Robert aid;' "They (the M. E. Church) diCVred with the : Methodist Episcopal Ohurch south, only on th tlftrery question," thus admitting that W sbonli bt just as good as they if w egreed with them . on that question, that ther wm ner other wrong in n (lb Bishop ftad member of th Arkansas eon-Terence) except our dissent firtny' themon that question." . . ' ' Again; "The q nest ion is rspeatadtr saVed , Had the Methodiil Episcopal Church any agency in getting np thi movement?' Its my judgment loading member of that oh arch , were th principal Instigator." Andftgair; "when editors or others spologiw for Such lawlessness and wrong, or speak of the ap-provingly Uiey become morally jwriic'fcn'w-inia, and show that they only netd the op- . portunity to do the lik thetnMlvei."

But the young ladies had more perseverance than they were given credit 'or. and Thurs day night found them at Montor, twenty-four miles from Cleveland, somewhat ired but by no means exhausted. Friday morning it rain ed, but having an umbrolla they started about eight o'clock, and at six o'clock that evening presented themselves at the door of a relative of one of them at Unionville who doubtless thought the girls were crazy to have walked that distance.

Belknap, of 60 wan street, was arrested at the suit or the Springfield Mount Vernon and Pittsburg Rail, way, on ft charga of disposing of bonds of that company. The person in question gave bail and was liborated. To-day further development appear In the ease. It seems that in Decembor last Mr. Belknap, who had been for three years, a customer of the Union Bank, and stood well in the opinion of the late President, Mr. Deming, presontod himself to that gentleman, and stated that he desired to pay off a loan of $78,000 whieh the bank had made him on stock sec lire ties. lie handed his check on the Union Bank (not certillcd)to Mr.Doiu- ing, who then returned him his securetics. On leaving the bank Mr. Bulknap stopped at the teller's desk, and presented a cneck for $00,000, observing that he had just been negotiating a loan. The . teller cortiliod the check without hesitation. At 2 P. M. that day. the then cashier discovered that the bank had - been thus drawn upoH to the extent of $1G8,0U0, and had no funds of Mr. Belknap's in its possession. On calling oil Mr. Belknap for an explanation, ho was told that he (ur.u.)had been disappointed in obtaining a loan from ft private banker.and oould not make good his account. - The secu rities which be had obtained from Mr. Deming that morning he slated . that he had forwarded to Boston, and would not have them again in bis possession until his father's estate had been divided. Alter some discussion the cashier at length obtained tho above mention ed bonds on the Springfield, Mt. Vernoo and Pittsburg tlailway. which are sud to be worth about $30,000. Mr. Deming then made a loan to Belknap of the amount obtamad by him, and awaited the course of events. The Bank has since obtained ft mortgige ou Belknap's share of his father's estate, which was worth $00,000. He ' is the son of the ' late John Belknap, of' Boston, and has for some years been engaged in bu.iinosii as ft bonk note broker, with extensive connections among ft certain class of country Banks. 0''IdoWish I could lie' cumd of lying in bed so late In the morning," said a lazy husband, turning round on his pillow.

The Free Labor Cause in Missouri The Freo Labor ssntiincnt is sweeping over Missouri like a whirl wind. Slaveholders are seoing that the "institution" don't pay that free labor fur excels slave and are becoming Free Soileis, and are sending their niggers down the river. As a late evidence of tho onward progress of the Emancipation cause, we would state that ft free labor organ the F. ee Democrat has just been established at St. Joseph, under circumstances that seem to foretokon for "it ft successful career. The St. Louis Denvwat, in noticing the Star in the West, says: St. Joseph is the second city in the Stale of Missouri. ' Relatively it is growing ts fast as St. Louis, and promises in ft few years to be a place of great importance. The appearance of the Free Domociat in such city is ft sign of the wholesome condition of the public sentiment in tho commercial centres of Missouri. The terrorism of tho border rutflun upoch is gone forever. Presses shall no more be thrown in the river. Free speech is tolerated now wherever commercial activity prevails. Light is breaking out in unexpected quarters. Calm reflection has taught even the prejudiced that the perpotuation of slavery in Missouri is incompatible with her development. Wher- evor intelligence and disinterestedness are found, the superiority of free labor is recog nized, The river towns especially realize the wisdom of encouraging immigration. The settlement of Kansas has taught them some useful lcssons, and shaken their faith in tho adequacy of slave labor to the performance of the task which demands all the energies of the State." This new organ of the right will undoubtedly effect a great and good work in western Missouri. Ignorance and slavery cannot Jong withstand the efforts of a free people, directed by a free and able press. We are hopeful enough to believe that Missouri is destined soon to be redeemed from the thraldom of slavory. As a Free State she will become great in the sisterhood of States.

For tht Republican, Review of Mr. Brewster's Reply to Mr. Whiteman Mb. EniTon: Mr. Brewster in bis published sornion charges Bishop Junes as northern man with being southern in all hit feeling. That is with be ing "in all his feelings" in favor of slave hold ing. Secondly; with being "cringing syco pliant." Mr. Webster defines cringing t mean shrinking, bowing servilely;, and syco phant to mean a parasite; a mean fiatlrrer of great men ; a deceiver ; an importer. That is. Mr. Brewster charges Bishop Janes with being ft mean fMerer of great men; a deceiver; an imposter. And yet, in his rojily be has the recklessness to say "I am ready to admit that he is a respectable man, and I never breathed any other sentiment about him." 0, TitUTn, WIIRHE IS TUT SACRKDNKSS O.SHASIE, WHERE IS THT BLUSH? He charged Bishop Janes and the members of the conference over which he was presiding with being so odiously and contemptibly, cringing and syco, bantic, that he ami they, ought to be mobbed; and yet he has the audacity to say I never breathed a disrespectful sentiment about him. He not only fully justified tho mob in what they did, but earnestly expressed the wish ".hat they would mob more of them." In his sermon he affirms that the conference over which Bishop Janes was presiding, was mado up of with out even one hnnerabb exception slave-hold ers or the defenders of slave-boiling; and that they, as well as he, are cringing sycophants; so mean and enntcmptibly sycophantic that ''wore the the south to.bray one of them ir. a mortar with ft pestle yet would not his cringing sycophancy depart from him." And yet in his reply he baa the 'strange assurance to say "I had no idoa of slandering the M. E Church or even of attacking it." Does he mean that he had no idea of attacking and slandering Bishop Janes and the members of the conference over which he was presiding? If so, the Lord pity him. The Lord knows, and you readers know that such ttatement would te untrue. If he does not mean this his reply is the merest evasion; for I had not charged him with slandoring the M. E church, but with slandering Bishop Janes and the members of the Arkansas conference. In bis reply Mr. B. retracts nothing. He iu-deed says as ft matter offoite" he willnot de. lend the charge of sycophancy against Bishop Janes; yet "os a maMer of fact" ho still main tains the charge. Not only so; but virtually brings the same charge against Bishops Wangh and Morris,and by implication against all the liiahops in the M. IS. Church. In his sormon Mr. B. not only charges the mo rubers of the Arkansas conference with being cringing syo-ophants, but affirms that they are all nf them either slave-holders or the defenders of slave- holding; yet in his rcply.while he admits that ho has no evidence that any one of them ever owned a slave, or ever in any way defended slave holding, he wishes your readers to bear in mind that he said what he did, not from any knowledge of the members ol said conference, "buttrom a knowledge of what more northern conferences of the M. E church are." His ftrgument.thrown into logical form, runs thus: I know that all the members of the more northern conferences in the M E ohurch are either sUve-holders or the defenders of slave-holding, "and presuming that the mem bers of the conference cer which Bishop Janes was presiding were no better."comes to the conclusion that they are all of them either slave holders or defenders of slave-holding. Now these charges against the more nor' hern conferences are as groundless and false, as those against the members of the Arkansas conlerence. W ill Mr. B. inform us in which of tha more northern conferences are all Its members either slave-holders or the defenders of slave-holding? He is well aware that there are no such conferences. How strangely opposite ultraisms meet and harmonize! The southern fire-eaters are vehemently exclaiming, these ministers of the M. E. church ought to be mobbed, because they are all abolitionists seeking tie destruction of our peculiar interests. Says Mr. B., (sus tained by the ultra-abolitionists of the north,) I agree with you exactly it ought to be dono; because they are all of 0tem either slave holders or (Ite defenders of slave holdinghut as it would be an unpleasant task for us in the north, 1 wish you would do it. "It is the only cure for them, and even this promises lit tle." " Now, Mr. B., do not be discouraged; could yon raise courage enough to mob all the minis tela in the north, and could you in duce the fire-caters to mob all of those in the south, it would promise much. We would have a fine time of it, and the promise of ft better time coming. Just think of It, the fire-eaters aro mobbing mothodist ministers; and Mr.' B. is echoeing back, "I with you wmtld mob nine uf them." .This hhydrcplio- bia abolitionism intensified. See how Ileiod and Pilate have made friends. - Mr. B., why nut call your brethren around you and do this work yourself? Cannot tho mercury in the themometer indicating your courage be raised - sufficiently high to wake so bold strike? Blow upon the fuse agiiu and see if it will not rise. Now fa your time.

' ined themselves too pure to remain in, tor ' communion. The one left because in his ea ' timation she now is, and ever has been, uncompromisingly opposed to slavery; and faf ever seeking its extirpation. The other left because in his estimation she is made np of slaveliohlers and the defenders of slavelMing, How strongly they differ, and yet bow exact' ly they agree! Is not Mr. B. aware that her apostate sons seldom speak of her either re spectfully or truthfully? The grossest misrepresentations, the vilest slander that haver ever been heaped upon her, have com from ( apostate sons. Of this Mr. 2. ia furnishing ample illustrations. . . ' Did you observ the empluitie faun, the sarcastic manners, the exultant modulations of bis voice, while enunciating ia reading in his sermon the defamatory statement object' ed to In this and in my former article? What was it that sweetened up hit soul so much just at this point? The deeper the vale of poverty, ignorance and degradation from which she has taken her apostate sons the more she has done for them, and the higher she has raised them, the more thoy' hate and love to defame her. Small as is ther communion from which Mr. B. hails, she has her apostates in the use of whose expart testimony I could prove ber lo tw exceeding ly vile. He next makes garbled quotation from Dr. Durbin, representing that when ministers apply lor admission into an annual eon- feience they are "met with tht usual question, (0 sltamt,) are you an abolitionist?" and if so they are rejected, etc. Now, Mr-B., does, or ought to know that there is not an Annual Conference in the M. E. Church that meet her applicants with any such question. All who know anything about the church know that all such representations are slanderous and false. There may be in the church ft lew hair-brained,hot headei ultrnists.who will soon - follow thi example of Dr McF. end Mr. B.in goiog out from us because they are net of us, who have proposed such questioiis;but no an nual conference docs any such thing. Bishop Junes, in common with the other Bishops, signed an address to the General Conference) ' 'n which doubts are expressed whether ft certain mode of excluding all slave-holders from the church would be constitutional; and so eager ia Mr. B. to convict him, that he infer from this that he is "southern in all his feelings." His zeal is truly worthy ot better cause. Again says 2ur. B.,"Bisbop Jsnes bat laid bis episcopal hands on the heads of slaveholders." Now, If Mr. B. affirms that b ha done so knowing them to be slave-holders. I simply dony it, and demand the proof. Instead of all the minister being either slaveholders or the defenders of 8laveholdnj, as Mr. B. affirms, if there i in the M. E. Church traveling preacher who ia a slaveholder (which I do not admit) he i such in violation of the express rv.U and lev of the church, and the Anneal Conference of which he is ft member i tlone responsible. On pago 215 of the Methodist Discipline we have the following rule; "'When any traveling preacher becomes an owner of slave or slaves,' by any means, he shall forfeit his ministerial character in our church, nnlesa he execute, if it Ve practicable a legal emancipation of such slaves; conformably to the law of the state in which he lives." If the members of the Arkansas Conference are, as Mr. B. affirm slaveholders or the defender of slaveholding why do the ilnveocrnls of Texas mob and drive them nut? Says Mr. B. because they belong tr ft church whose ministers are either slaveholders etc., , "This ia truly ludicrous and ab surd. If Satan cast out Satan how could hia ' kingdom stand? So far as Mr. B. i ft war Bibhop J; nes has neither said nor writU anything against slaveholding- and- hence lie infer that he i in favor of slavery. So far as I am aware Mr. B. has neither said nor written anything against IVlygsmy and bene 'n the use of Mr. B.'s logic I infer that he isin ,. favor of having plurality of wive. In ft ' letter written by Bishop Jsnes and publish in the Christhn Advocate fttxt Journal of , June 10th, lfleO, we havs the following at his opinion of the rctson why he was mobbed rn Texas: "What was the real mothe? Tht answer it found lo their (tb mob's)'ow declarations. Judge Robert aid;' "They (the M. E.

' ' Again; "The q nest ion is rspeatadtr saVed , Had the Methodiil Episcopal Church any agency in getting np thi movement?'
