For this I have received final orders. A failure to comply with the same would produce without war, aud with a great power, the aid of Spain. In the rneau while I obey the iaw of necessity and the orders of the Spanish Republic. Let us deliver up the Virgiuius and the survivors of her passengers and crew. I have faith in the nobleness of our procedures in compliance with my words. (Signed) Boquin Jovellar.” Columbus Cotton Market. Market firm. Low middling 14c.; middling I4i c . .

By Rev. Dr. H. Birkenthal. One portion of our readings to-morrow, we commence with the following words: “And it came to pass after these things, God uid* tempt Abraham. And he said: no w thy sou and offer him there for a burnt of ter ing.”_ Gen. 21-1. The conception of the Deity by a na tion is also the best measure for its views of morality. The higher or lesser moral culture of a people is an infallible index of its more or leas enlightened religious convictions. As the savage individual, so also does an uncivilized people, living in a state of nature, honor only a superior force. The power which it exercises over others or which others can enforce against it, affords the measure of the estimation which it claims, or in which it holds oth ers. Neither justice, nor moral worth, nor purity of sentiment, is of any in its eye, but pre-eminently and essen tially, brute force, worldly power. An uneducated man, just as an uncivilized people, bows before his superior who can make him feel his power; and on the oth er hand, they are rude and tyrannical to wards their inferiors. A people which as yet has but a religious ^instinct and has not worked its way towards a clear con ception ©f Religion, which is not yet per rneated by a higher idea, and recognizes in God above ail, a mighty being, fears the power over it, which can crush it; it bows before this power just as it bows be fore a superior human being; but, on the other hand, its treatment of others whom it regards as its subordinates, shows what iow position it occupies with regard to morality. Judaism is a religion that adores God as the Holy One, as the very ideal of moral purity. This it has proven by the fact, that it invariably emphasizes moral worth also in its human relations; that it recognizes not the mighty ones as being exclusively entitled to power, but grants them their power only so fur as tied” they are rightfully and legitimately enti thereto. Justice, the pure, moral re lation between man and man, is its high est consideration, wherewith it measures the relations prescribed by it. This difference of culture among na tions preeminently manifests itself in their divine worship; the manner iri which God is worshipped must decide whether men have a presentment of God only as a higher power, tremble before Him, seek to conciliate Him, or whether they wor ship Him as the Holy One, look up to Him as the pattern of highest morality; the purest expression of mercy and benev olence. Whoever recognizes, above all, the power of God, will seek to gain His favor; men will bow before Him, that He may not pour His wrath upon them; they will try, by some act or other, to win His good graces, to procure His kind consider ation, to ward off His disfavor, by offer ing to Him gifts, and undergoing at the same time privations. 1 his is the origin of sacrifices. flee expresses the intention, by means of depriving one’s self of something, be it even his dearest object, to soften the pos sible wrath of God, or at least to show Him in what deep subjection one is to Him, since everything is offered Him as long as it is pleasing in His sight. The crudest manifestation of such a feeling exhibited in the lowest state of religious life is human sacrifice, especially the sac rifice of those dearest and nearest to us. Rude heathenism sacrificed children to its gods. The dearest and most priceless treasure—this is the meaning of that sac rifiee, I offer unto my God, and He will be pleased therewith, since I do not hesitate, in His behalf, to deaden every feeling and emotion within me, to de prive myself, for His pleasure, of the dear est treasure I possess. It is the lowest religious sentiment that is ever expressed thereby; a complete mis¬ conception of the Divine Being, that He is to be conciliated by slavish self-degra¬ dation, by self-imposed cruelty. • This iow degree of religion fears the cruel and arbitrary element of the Deity, and thus nurtures also cruelty aud arbitrariness in nian. This was the religion that surrounded Israel—the worship of God or Gods among those uations that now and then ruled over Israel, but were at all times in such close contact with them that their Benti merits naturally became known to, and now and then exercised their influence upon the Israelites. The worship of Mo¬ loch is known to have been one that de¬ manded human sacrifices; to burn one’s own children was the terrible sacrificial service designated as the worship of God. Judaism carried on an energetic war against this degredation of the Divine Being ; for this kind of sacrifice it knows no mercy. It is true traces of it are irn printed upon our history ; it did influ¬ ence weak minds that believed to perceive in this self-suppression of the teuderest emotions, an act of devotion to God ; but with what indignation do the prophets in¬ veigh against this most savage expression of crudest heathenism ! At its very threshold, Judaism makes the Patriarch engage in this struggle in his heart and gain a glorious victory —, “Elohirn tempted Abraham." Different names of God are employed in Holy Writ, and our ancient teachers interpret them very in gemously —, Elohim represents trod on the mighty One, the rigorous One, who is likewise worshipped in God, as whom riiso the nations recognize Him in one way or another, but the other name —, ■He is the Unsneakabie Oue. the Eternal Existence, „ the God „ j of the spirits for all , flesh, is the God of mercy of benevolence, of ardent love and goodness towards man.” ft was “Eiohim” that tempted Abrafiam. fho n. lde llnd ’ uu it then 1 dominated, . was uppermost also in tne , mind of Ahraham ■ the acknowledgment of e .u that . -r, Divine - Power animated . . . him . - to snch degree, that he was desirous to show himself as its faithful servant. “Offer thine only son, whom thou iov “StWhat greater ° treasure has thou ac qmred, , whereby , canst thou better manifest COLUMBUS, GA., SUNDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1873. thy submissiveness? He is ready for the sacrifice ; everything is prepared for its consumation ; then a messenger of God I he is “called from heaven —, lay not thy hand upon the lad.” The higher knowledge of God awakens in Abraham ; how God is mighty, but is He not also all¬ good ? God is all-powerful, but is that' power a tyrannical one ? Does it demand of man that he should not ennoble his feel lu « a ’ ... but that on the , contrary he . should , ,, deaden them ? Is this worship of God— to . ml *tilate myself, to immolate the ™ or on- „ ly treasure I call mine own? No ‘‘lay -thy band upon the lad”—this is true worship of the All-merciful One; and Abraham did not sacrifice his child. Not his readiness to offer that sacrifice consti tutes the true piety of Abraham, but his omission thereof; not that he blindly bowed before the Divine Power to tear his child from his heart, but that he re cognized God in His sublimer and truer nature, constitutes his true, enlightened piety. Hence it is not well, invariably, to point to Abraham's willingness to offer bis son as an act of extreme piety—he was, and still is, an example of piety, even be cause he omitted that sacrifice, Thus, we find at the very outset, the picture of this struggle, together with the victory of purer moral conviction, and this victory runs through the whole of Judaism. The service of Moloch is de spised as an abomination, which God ab hors, which degrades us very deeply, and whenever a horrible place is spoken of, the valley of Hinnom is designated, the location where sacrifices were offered to Moloch. “Ge Hinnom,” the valley of Hinnom Gehinuom, afterwards became the designation of the place where all evil is concentrated, where the severest pun ishmont is dealt out, where damnation dwells—it is Hell. This human sacrifice was 111081 energetically contended against ia Judaism—it would allow no com pro¬ arise. But animal sacrifice, also, ia no l e8S a token of a low religious sentiment; animal sacrifice has also for its object to win favor by giving up some property, 1 without tending to moral reform, without furthering moral ennoblement. Nor did animal sacrifice spring from the soil tf Judaism; it was tolerated, and only tole' rated; it was inveighed against by Israel’s j best and noblest men, the Prophets, who showed up its inferiority in the most em phatic terms—“To what purpose saith the Lord is the multitude Of your sacrifices un¬ : tome.” Isaiah says: And, “wilt thou offer I sacrifices unto me,” says the Psalmiat, 1 “am I hungry ? It I were hungry, need i tell thee ? Is not the cattle Upon a thou and hills mine ? Away with sacrifices’’’ Aud Jeremiah expresses himself with dry soberness—“I spake not unto your fath ers, saith the Lord, nor commanded i hem concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices.” It cannot be denied, the institution uf sacrifice was so deeply rooted in the uni venal conviction that it was adopted also in Israel. And if you wish a strong proof of this statement, examine the repetition of the Law, in Deuteronomy, and you will j see how the provisions concerning sacrifi fees have dwindled dqwn, are merely hinted at as some custom, but me uot ] elaborated as a branch of Divine worship. j During the period of the second temple, j numerous houses of prayer arose, as a victorious rival pofver, by the i side of the temple at Jerusalem ; wherein sacrifice was still retained. And i when the latter was destroyed, sacrifice j also was buried beneath its ruins. Saeri i flee is vanished from Israel, and will for j ever remain vanished. Every estabiish j rnent of religion upon the basis of sacri I ficial worship : every such acltnowledg j ment attributing spirituality to that wor ship, is a relapse into heathenism, Together with the animal which is offered as a sacrifice unto God, the loftier j religious knowledge is immolated—from the ashes, from the smoke of the saeri fioial animal curling toward heaven, rises an idol. But from the pure prayers soaring to heaven, a blessing i8 poured out upon humanity forevermore. Amen! ASSIGNEES SALE.
