Hails Skk VOL. ll.} Bishop Meade on the Spiritual Relations of Negro Slaves. It will lie remembered that a few weeks ago Bishop Meade, of Virginia, was at tacked in the columns of the Richmond Enquirer, for what it chose to consider “ a too encouraging strain of remark” employed by him in administering the rite; of confirmation to some slaves. The sermon having given rise to considerable discussion, the Bishop has prepared a copy of his remarks for publication. Wc find them in the Richmond Enquirer. It was for the views there expressed that it was proposed, through the columns of the En quirer, to drive the venerable Bishop from the State. He writes : “In my address at Lawrencoville, I adverted to the fact that a number of ser vants were about to be confirmed, eleven out of the twelve; that something suit able to them was proper from me; that God, who, of one blood, made all nations upon earth, had given us a religion suita ble to all, and that the Bible had many things addressed to all, rich and poor, bond and free ; that the larger portions of the human race had always been in some form of bondage to the other, being poor and dependent; that God in his providence had permitted a large number to come to this country from Africa, tend ing to make it a blessing to them, their posterity, and Africa itself, by bringing them to the light of the G ospel, and send ing it back to that country; that there were some persons who, by denying the unity of the human race and ascribing dif ferent nations to different origins, and not to the one first pair mentioned in the Bi ble, made an invidious assault upon our holy religion, for, in maintaining differ erent origins, and great original differ ence, a way was prepared for denying that Christianity was suitable to all, unless modified and accommodated to the varia tions in the human family, whereas one great argument from the divinity of our religion is that it is suitable to all, was received and understood alike by all, rich and poor, bond and free, learned and un learned. “ I exhorted the servants to rejoice that they had been born in this Christian land, and not in a heathen land —to seek that liberty of soul from sin which Christ alone can give, and which was infinitely better than any other liberty—to obey all those instructions which God had given to ser vants in his word —to be humble, faithful, honest, obedient to their masters, not eye servants, but doing their duty as in the sight of God. The whole address was based on the supposition that their lot was assigned them by Providence ; and that they should rejoice in the many spir itual blessings connected with it. Just in proportion as they rejoiced and obeyed by admonition, will they be happy, contented and faithful servants to their earthly and heavenly masters. “The above was written on hearing that something had appeared in a Peters burg paper on the subject, but not know ing the precise character of the article. Having now seen it, I add the following remarks: “ 1 have for forty-six years been addressing our slaves in the absence of their owners. Forty years I have been publicly laying my hand on them in con firmation, and as publicly addressing spe cial exhortations to them. During all the period of my ministry, I have never heard it intimated that a word was uttered by me which was found fault with by any. More than twenty-four years ago 1 opened one of our largest Conventions which met in the Monumental Church in Richmond, with a sermon on the religious instruc tion of servants. It was unanimously approved of, and a copy requested for general circulation. Several editions have been issued. “ I have never varied front the senti ment contained in that sermon. I have, on several occasions, of bite years, advert ed to the fact that there were two classes of persons who were making assaults up on the Bible, in connection with the sub ject, the one consisting of those, who, unable to resist the argument in favor of the lawfulness of slavery from the Bible, had gone to the extreme of denying the divine authority of the Bible; the other, consisting of those who, not satisfied with the sanction afforded to this institution by the Bible, sought to strengthen it by affirming that different races, and espe cially the. African, came from different origins, and that the latter were very di verse from, and inferior to the others. Os course, the same religion might not be equally suitable to all. “Against all such assaults upon our holy religion, 1 trust the ministers ol‘ the gospel will ever he ready to defend it. On the occasion spoken of, 1 briefly al luded to those assaults on our holy reli gion, and referring to the many notices of servants ill the Bible, and especially to what St. Paul had addressed to them, and his injunction to Timothy as to ex hortation to them, and that 1 never felt myself more as the minister of Christ and follower of the Apostle than when laying my hands on the heads of this por tion of our fellow-beings, i have ever rejoiced to say to those who upbraid us with being indifferent to the souls of our COLUMBUS, GA„ SEPTEMBER -2(>, 1856. servants, that our ministers generally seem to delight in preaching to them to do so. “On thta occasion, I said, that from the earliest period the more pious of our forefathers, who declared that they came to America chiefly to bring the Christian religion to the nations, also regarded the African as sent here, not merely to fell the forests and cultivate the fields, though this was part of the design of Providence, but chiefly for the far more glorious pur pose of hearing the gospel <>l’ salvation. 1 felt that while speaking, i was defending Southern Christians against charges of neglect from distant quarters, though l, by no means, affirm that they do half of their duty toward them. “ If I was not understood, I can only ascribe it to a most sensitive and morbid state of some minds on the subject. W. Meade.” A Capacious Carpet Hag. Meanness occasionally’ meets with a shock that is a lesson to all concerned, especially to the victim. On the Cleve land ears, a short time since, coming to Buffalo, was a stalwart man, going to New York to buy goods. He was not what might be called a stingy or close man, but lie was one who, when there was a cent due him that swindling might deprive him of, would sacrifice a fifty dollar bill to save the cop per. Our friend had started from Cleve land without any breakfast, and when Erie “hove” in sight, he gathered him self up for a general skirmish for any and all kinds of provisions. He had a car pet-bag witli him, and going into the din ing-room at Erie, deposited his carpet-bag on the chair, while he took another by its side. He was lost for about ten minutes, perfectly oblivious to anything, save that he had a blessed consciousness of some thing rapidly and agreeably filling up his “ inwards.” About this time the land lord came round, and stopping by our friend’s chair, ejaculated— “ Dollar, sir.” “ A dollar,” responded the eating man —“ a dollar—thought you only charged fifty cents a meal for one—eh !” “ That’s true,” said meanness, “ but I count your carpet-bag one, since it occu pies a scat.” (The table was far from being crowded.) Our friend expostulated, but the land lord insisted, and the dollar was reluc tantly brought forth. The landlord pass ed on. Our friend deliberately arose, and opening his carpet-bag, full to its wide mouth, discoursed to it, saying : “ Carpet-bag, it seems you’re an indi vidual—a human individual, since you eat —at least I’ve paid for you, and now you must eat,” —upon which he seized every thing eatable within his reach, nuts, rai sins, apples, cakes and pies, and amid the roars of the bystanders, the delight of his brother passengers, and the discomfit ure of the landlord, phlegmatically went and took his seat in the cars. There was at least $8 worth in the bag —upon which the landlord realized nothing in the way of profit. So much for meanness. — Buf falo Republican. The Vast ness of London. We Americans (says the Philadelphia Ledger,) are so accustomed to expatiat ing on the rapid growth of our cities, that most of us are surprised to hear that the capitals of Europe increase nearly as fast. The growth of Paris, Vienna, and Berlin, on the continent, and of London, Liver pool, Glasgow and Manchester, in Eng land, have been especially rapid. But no city in the world has thriven like the great British metropolis. In 1801, for example, the population of London was 1*58,868 ; now it is two millions and a half; in other words, at the beginning of the century, it was hardly more than a third as large as it is at present. We think Philadelphia, with its half a mil lion of inhabitants, a large town; but Loudon is five times as large. In lact, the latter city contains nearly as many inhabitants as the State of Pennsylvania, and more than all the great cities of the I nited States together. Nor does there seem, at present, any likelihood of this enormous metropolis decreasing in size. On the contrary, there is every indication of its continued growth. The sewerage commissioners, in view of its probable ne cessities in the future, are already pro jecting a drainage for six millions of in habitants, a population which London will yet contain, if the increase goes on for half a century, at the present ratio. “ I sees, Missus .lousing, dat you’,- got atioder white girl working fin’ you.” “ Yes, child, I’se had her dese free weeks!” “ What do cause for prefer ence ob dese white gals, honey“ W hy, do fact am, when you gets one oh do col ored gals, dey tink dar’s ekality, and makes deinselves too familiar like; but dose white gals don’t —dey keeps urn place.” New York Central Railroad.
