He was drag ged round till nearly dead, and when he thought he could hold no longer, he nrrde up his mind he had better “ hol ler.” And now we will let him tell his own story: So looking at the matter in all its bearings, I cum to the conclusion that I’d better let some one know whar I was. So I gin a yell louder than a locomotive whistle, and it warn’t long before I seed the deacon’s two dogs a cornin’ down like as if they war seeing which could get thar fust. I knovv’d who they were arter—they’d jine the bull agin me, I was sat tin, for they were orful wenomous, and had a spite agin nte.

Tisdale, Esq.—Dear Sir:— I received yours the day before yester day, and have been reflecting upon the subject of it. I have watched the late movements in the political world with deep con cern. 1 would not indulge in despond ency, yet thero are features of the times of a strongly discouraging character. I have not the leisure now to give my views at length, but there is oue dark spot in our political horizon, to which I must allude, and which threatens de struction to all that as Americans and as Christians we hold dear; and that is, in one word, the rabid Abolition spirit which intrudes itself through the deep cunning of European intrigue, into every question, great and small, religious and political, and in comhiniug with the mixed good and bad anti-slavery feeling of the country <>n all occasions. I speak now of a fact, without going into the philosophy or causes of the fact, when I say that the reckless spirit of a wild and truly unchristian Abolitionism is that which I belirve Jesuits may, and do, use as one of the most efficient means to accomplish their great end, a r, .d the end for which they have been sent here, to wit: “ the dissolution of the Union.” Look at the distraction and the dissen sions in every Christian denomination, as well as in political parties; in every benevolent association, feuds created by this black apple of discord; and now in a movement which held out but lately to the patriot some hope of successful resistance of foreign conspiracy, what is killing it, not with a slow poison, hut with an almost instant death ? It is the same impo ted disease; for, however cunningly covered up from.view, it is an imported disease. It is part and parcel of the same Foreign Conspiracy. No organization to resist Foreign aggres sion, and the ev’.ls which threaten to de stroy us, which does not resolutely eschew all sympathy with these disorgan izes, can have any success, lu that direction, among abolition fogs, I see nothing but certain shipwreck Leave i Slavery, which is directly a moral ques tion, and on\f indirectly a political ques tion, where the Constitution leaves the subject; let the South manage it in their own way. The attempt to organize a Southern and Northern party, to make a geogra phical division for the mere purpose of attaining the ascendancy or control of administrative power, is to me one of the most pitiful, as well as dangerous aud suicidal courses that the American people can adopt; it is dangerous, be cause of its geographical character is suicidal, because of its inevitable re sult in the ruin of both sections, which ever section shall attain power at the expense of the growth of irradicable CRUELTY OF ROMANISM. The history of the Romanish Church is a history of cruelty and bloodshed.

If the celibacy of the Popes is an es sential doctrine, and if Peter was the first Pope, is it not strange that the Scriptures should be so- particular in speaking of “ Peter’s wife’s mother?” If the Virgin Mary is justly styled the Queen of Heaven, is worthy of adora tion, and is the most effectual interces sor, is it not strange that the whole New Testament is entirely silent on all this, and furnishes not even a single text to sustain these doctrines ? If Popery be the Holy Catholic Church, wherein consists its holiness! In its head the Pope? when, as is well known, many of them were monsters of iniquity, in its members! when in all Popish countries, the people are notori ous for their lax morality ; in its practi ce? such as its disregard for the Sab bath, its withholding God’s word from lint the force modifies- it utilization Lang^ and jjp yield-* to fire outside prfes- sure, hoping thereby to secure 4*is elec tion. wanttgk votes.

If the gospel he “ on earth peace and good will to men,” how can Popery be the Gospel, when its history is written in blood, as witness the Inquisition, the per secution of the Vaudois, and the St Bartholomew massacre ? If not a trace of what is peculiar to Popery is to be found in either of the three most ancient creeds, via; the Apostles, the Nicene, and the A i lianas ion, has it much right to boast of its anti quity ? If it be possible, as Popish doctrine asserts, that a man may lay in a greater stock of merit than is Accessary for his own salvation, is it nolstr.mge that even when the best Roman Catholic Bishops die, the prayers ofthe church are enjoin ed to deliver their souls out of purga tory ! If Popery can prove its identity with the early Christian faith by what it calls “ the marks of the true church,” would it not be well to strengthen the argu ment by adding to these marks its pri- DANGEROUS DOCTRINE.

In the “ Catholic School Book, (,agc: 171) this direction is given to every scholar, “ Offer you prayers to the bles sed Virgin, your patron, and all the Saints together,” As Protestants,we are taught different ly in the Bible. St. Paul, in writing to the Phillippians, says, “ In everything, by prayer and supplication, let your re quest he known unto God.” . In the first chapter of the book of James, this general direction is given—“ II any one of you lack wisdom ; let him ask of God.” And in th«#65ih Psalm, David cries out. “O Thou that hearest, unto Thee shall all flesh come.” Now,this praying to saints and angels-,- is an article of faith in the Romish we wish particularly to call the attention of the reader to, in connexion with the settlement of this colony by our fore fathers, is what was said in England, while the subject cf getting it up, was For in nothing am I behind the very chiefest apostles,” or how could he he suiuptous as to withstand Peter to face because he was to be blamed !
