-GOD IN TOM CONSTITUTION."
IVe publish in The Sun some
points made in the remarks of some
THE
WEEKLY
SUN.
VOL. 3, NO. 421
ATLANTA, GA* TUESDAY, MARCH 11, 1873.
t »*2>i>146
of the speakers in the National Con
vention in behalf of the religious
amendment to the Constitution, held
at Cooper Institute, New York.
These selected remarks show the
drift of sentiment that prevailed in
the delilterations of that body of fa
natics.
The cause of religion has been
more or less retarded always by the
spirit of fanaticism in Borne sort of
form or other; and this fanaticism
now finds expression in a struggle for
the recognition of God in the Federal
Constitution. While a firm and un-
yieldiug believer in the Christian re
ligion, we are opposed to any move
ment looking to anything like mix
ing the afiuirs of Church and State,
and thus, to that extent, infringing
upon the rights and liberties of oth
ers who muy think differently.
It was one of the first principles
that actuated our fathers, in the
formation of the Federal Constitu
tion, that all men should be protected
in the right of free speech and of
opinion; and that those so inclined
might worship God under their own
“vine and fig tree,” and according to
their own notion ns to what should
he the character of that worship.
One of the shakers referred t v
says the Constitution, as drafted in
the Mayflower, in 1020, was in favor
of Protestant Christianity, and he
thought that no one opposed thereto
had any rights in this country.
That speaker is, no doubt, a Puritan
descendant of the Mayflower crew,
and would unhesitatingly suppress
the freedom of opinion and of speech
if he could force all to become Puri
tans like himself, lie would drive
out of tlie country everybody disa
greeing with himself, not even ex
empting the Catholics who claim to
be Christians.
“Freedom of speech and the liberty
of the printing press,” was one of the
controlling ideas of the apostles of
liberty in this country in the forma
tion of the government, and they
wisely protected it in the draft and
adoption of the Federal Constitution
That meant to secure all persons in
i lie freedom of opinion. A man has
a right to believe or disbelieve in the
existence of a God, according to his
own conviction. A man so believing
could not affirm his support of the
Constitution when that Constitution
contained an acknowledgement lie
could not make.
Let the American people remem
ber that this is a free country, and
that if the Christian religion cannot
stand upon its own merits and upon
its owu truths, its claims upon the
confidence of humanity are not what
they are said to be. “ Christ’s king
dom is not of this world,” the Scrip
tures tell us. It is not intended that
Christianity shall assert any domin
ion over the people of this world ex
cept that of spiritual dominion. That
dominion cannot be established in
the hearts of any people by linman
legislation. If it exists in the hearts
of men at all, it finds its way there
from divine inspiration.
Without discussing this part of the
subject further, we conclude by say
ing that this movement for a recog
nition of «• God in the Constitution”
is prompted by the spirit of fanati
eism which has given us so much
trouble in the last twenty years; and
that this cannot be a free country if
it does not tolerate al! citizens in
their freedom of opinion.
SA VANXAH RErU3LICAX.
Under the heading of Pons Asino-
rum, we regret to see our confrere of
the Savannah Republican exhibit
spirit of ill-humor about one or two
playful paragraphs in regard to an
article in its columns a few days pre
viously. When The Sun made the
playful remark that ‘.we conldn’t
think of lending the Republican our
ears we certainly had no intention of
irritating our good brother.
When the editors get older in the
editorial harness, they will learn not
to take these little newspapers squibs
*o heart so serlouslv.
"MI IS fC7T.~
Last week % very sensible article
from the Washington Gazette, under
the above caption, was reproduced in
The Sun, and a few comments of
endorsement made upon it in the
editorial columns. The Carrollton
Times takes exception to both the
articles upon the ground that they
were uncalled for under the circum
stances, from the editor’s observation
of the Georgia press in reference to
the straights, and that they sounded
like a cheap bid for sympathy, by
setting themselves up as the persecut
ed, so that they might preach long
sermons to imaginary persecutors,
about the great errors they had made,
and bring in the same old cant phra
ses, “I told you so,” etc.
The editor of the Times read the
two articles to very little profit, and
has a very poor understanding of
what he does read, when he puts such
a construction upon either of the ar
tides referred to. The object of the
Gazette and The Sun is to forget the
past and to heal up all the wounds
produced by the errors of the past,
and unite the Democracy upon its
ancient line of principles.
The Times thinks nobody wants
to persecute the Gazette or The Sun,
and cites the election of Mr. Stephens
to Congress us an evidence of that
fact. The editor forgets that all dif
ferences of the past in the Democratic
ranks are to be forgotten in the resto
ration of the harmony and unity of
the party upon its ancient line of
princples.
••S ta U« CtofUtattoB.
The National Convention in behalf of
the religions amendment to the Consti
tution held its seoond session in their
greet hell in the Cooper Inrtitutf, New
York. While the reeolntious «nen rder
discussion, Prof. Jonathan E l wards said
that the aarth would soor t>_*<*otne e hell
if the Constitution was not «oou amended
so as to recognize God as the source of
all power.
Miss Swisahelm, of Pennsylvania, said
that the politiea of to-day leave God and
women oat in the cold. She was thank-
fnl that women were &bub cat with each
oompeny.
Mr. Holmes said there were no choice
la this ooantry Detween Atheism and
Christianity. He prophesied that New
York would yet see the day when its
streets would flow with blood, even worse
than in Pans in the days of the French
Commons, if Jesus Christ is not Boon re
cognized in the Constitution.
Mr. Mil
Or. Larkk Merer,
Of the veneral "Father of Israel,” the
Columbus Sun says:
This venerable and wonderful man is
very near ninety years of age. In s short
talk that he made in St. Lake’s church,
last Sunday, ha stated be had beea
preaching aixty-eight years, and if he
lived uml the 15th of Angnst next he
will have beau a mesaber of the churob
seventy years, and on the 24th of the
same month he will have attained his
eighty-ninth birthday. His only regret,
is this oenneetton, is that he did not
sooner embrace a religion. Sunday be
fore last ha preached a forcible aennon,
of nearly an hour and a half duration,
and yet did not show any sign of ex
haustion. His voioe retains all its
strength and volume.
MR. BECK AND 2HE SALARY VOTE.
In commenting upon the recent
speech of Hou. E. W. Beck in Con
gress a few days ago, The Sun stated
upon the authority of another paper
that “Mr. Beck is one of the three
Georgia Representatives who op
posed and voted against the proposed
increased compensation to the mem-
ters of the 42nd and future Con
gresses.”
We have since seen what purports
to be a correct list of the yeas and
nays in the House on the salary ques
tion. From it we observe that Mr.
Beck did not vote at all. The vote of
the Georgia Representatives stood,
yeas: Bigby, DuBose, Price, White-
ley and Young—Col. McIntyre’s
being the only vote cast by said dele
gation against the increase of pay.
This much we say for the purpose
of correcting an error into which
we had fallen, and to “vindicate the
truth of history.”
THE SALARY VOTES.
The following is a classification of
the vote given in the House of Rep
resentatives, United States Congress,
on the adoption of the conference re
port on the Legislative Appropria
tion bill, this being the test question.
The vote was as follows;
Of the 102 yeas, 52 were Republicans,
and 50 Democrats and Liberal Republi
cans. Of the 95 nays, 58 were Republi
can, and 87 Democrats and Liberal Re
publicans; of the 52 Republican yeas. 23
were Southern members; of the 102 yeas,
55 were outgoing members, not elected
to the Forty-third Congress.
It is stated that there is a very
strong and sincere disinclination on
the part of some Senators as well as
some members of the House, to taking
the back pay allowed by the increase
of members’ salaries.
The New "Stork Times says that in
asmuch as it would seem over-virtu
ous for any member to singly take
the position of refusing it, there is
some talk of securing united action
on the part of quite a number, who
feel opposed to the principle, and
thus muce their disapprobation the
more emphatic.
AtlMlm, Gtorgik.
We perceive by the Constitution, that
one Dr. Webster mm been preach mg in
that city. He is said to tbe “down upon
the Bible,” and is styled a Universal isti
There is no such man in our (fellowship,
and we caution the publio against hold
ing our denomination responsible tor
what be may say or do. Will the Atlan
ta papers please copy.—Nrtasulga Her aid.
Milligan said that the Constitution,
as drafted in the Mayflower in 1620, was
in favor of Protestant Christianity. He
thought that nc one opposed thereto had
a right in this country. He concluded
by saying: “If the nation forgets its
duty, it will be turned to hell.” This
last remark was the signal for load and
tumultuous thumping of nmbrellas, and
several voioee cried out, “ Amen 1”
Dr. Wardell said that the late rebellion
would not have been possible if God was
in tbe Codstitution. and that the debts
incurred would not have to be paid by
the tax on rum and tobacco. “ If God’s
name,” the speaker concluded, “ was en
grossed in the Constitution, that heart-
blending wife would not kneel at the
condemned cell iu the Tombs praying for
mercy.”
A gentleman here desired to oiler a
few words of explanation, which Prof. G.
P. Hays, of Jefferson College, said was
not possible, inasmuch as Republicans
would not listen to Democrats at a Re
publican convection, neither would Re
publicans be heard at a Democratic con
vention.
Miss Swisshelm moved that Congress
. be petitioned to amend the Constitution
! so as to meet the requirements of the
convention. It was moved that the co
operation of Christian women be solicited
to join the movement advocated by Miss
tiwisshelm. tine said tnat when druukt u-
ness, debauchery and Credit Mobiner
frauds were cursing the nation, it was
time to open their eyes to the fact.
Dr. Treat, of Vinelanu, N. J., wa3 per
mitted to enter his protest against the
proposed seventeenth amendment. He
was frequently hissed and hooted during
the delivery of his address. Cries of
“Put him out!” came from all quurters
of the room. A youthful delegate in
sisted that he should oe shot. Alter this
the resolution allowing the reverend gen
tleman to express his views was with
drawn. Great excitement prevailed.
MaDy demanded that they be heard on
the suoject, but they were quickly ruled
out by order. In the evening session
several addresses were delivered by dele
gates, after which the officers fer tLe en
suing year were elected, and the Conven
tion adjourned sine oie.
CompIImeat «• Mr. Hipkeai trow*. Mu-
■Mkuau.
We find the following handsome trib
ute to Mr. Stephens in the Boston Ad
vertiser:
The election of Mr. A H. Stephens to
the House of Representatives at Wash
ington, and nomination of ex-Uovernor
English, of Connecticut, for election to
that body this spring, are events upon
whieh the ooantry may be congratulated.
They are both statesmen—a class of men
whom toe results of the late war have too
long kept in private life. "The canker?
of a long peaoe” are nothing to the
cankers of a long war. The ooantry will
mprove as we get farther and farther
Lorn the war.
Amendments to tl>e lSanlti upt Law.
There is some enquiry regarding the
two recent amendments to the Bankrupt
Act. They are two. The following will
become a law, it having passed hot ■ Hou
ses and only awaiting the signature of
the President:
That it was the true intent and mean
ing of an Act approved June Stli, 1S72,
entitled "An Act to amend an Act enti
tled ‘An Act to establish a uniform sys
tem of bankruptcy throughout the Uni
ted States,’approved March 2d, 1867,”
tuat the exemptions allowed the bank
rupt by the said Amendatory Act should,
aud it is hereby enacted that they shall,
be the amount allowed by the Constitu-
tion and laws of each Staio, respectively,
as existing in the year 1871; and that
such exemptions be valid against debts
contracted before the adoption and pas
sage of such State Constitution nnd laws
as well as those contracted after the same,
and against lier.s by judgment or decree
of any titate Court, any decision of any
such coart rendered since the adoption
and passage of such Constitution and
laws to the contrary notwithstanding.
The following, having been signed by
the Piesident, is already a law. It was
printed in the Congressional Globe of
February 7th, bnt appears to have passed
nnnoticeid elsewhere:
" That whenever a corporation created
by the laws of any State, whose business
is carried on wholly withiD the State
creitingtbe same, and also any insurance
company so created, whether all its busi
ness shall be carried on in such State or
not, has had proceedings duly com
menced against such corporation or com
pany before the Courts of said State for
the purpose of winding up the affaiis of
such corporation or company and divid
ing its assets ratably among us creditors
and lawfully among those entitled thereto
prior to proceedings having been com
menced against such corporation or com
pany under tbe bankrupt laws of the
United States, any order made or tnat
pb«li be made by such a Court agreeably
to the State law for the ratable distribu
tion or payment of any dividend of assets
to tbe creditors of such corporation or
oompany while such State Court shall
remain actually or constructively in pos
session or control of the assets of snob
corporation or company, sbaJl be deemed
valid, notwithstanding proceedings in
bankruptcy may have oeen commenced
and be pending against such corporation
or company.
Death of Willie Ecboli.
The ruthless hand of Death has at last
entered the house of Rev. P. W. J.
Echols, and taken off one of the brightest
and loveliest of his family. On Sunday
evening at 15 minutes to 9 o’clock,
Willie, a brother of the Manager of this
paper, breathed his last, and on yester
day he was buried in the churchyard at
Dtcatur. His funeral was attended by a
large concourse of friends at that place
and several irom this city. He was well
known and loved throughout the com
munity in which he lived. No boy of
ni8 age ever gave promise of a brighter
or more useful future. Gifted witn an
excellent mind—frank, affable and indus
trious, he was the pride of fond parents,
brothers and sisters, and admired by all
who knew him. To the bereaved we
tender our heart-felt sympathies, and to
the aged and grief-stricken patents, com
mend the Great Physician, who alone
can heal the broken-hearted. *’
“O stormy winds of winter-time,
Moan wildly as yon will;
His rest yoa .an not tronble now,
His heart you can not chill.
Draw your red shadows from the wall,
O beauteous ember-glow;
Drift cold about his silent house,
O white December anow.
Across the spirkle of the dew
Dry dust in whirlwinds ponr.
Hide, new moon. In the cloudy skies.
He needs roar light no more 1”

tTHE FERKO-PHOSPHOEAT
ed Elixir of (Julisaya bal k made by Caswel,
Hazard & Go., New York, is a delicious
cordial, made of the Pyrophosphate of
Iron and Calisaya Bark; it is the most
valuable tonic now in use for dyspepsia,
nervous affections, wakefulness, debility,
depression of spirits, &c., &c. The pale,
the nervous, and the debilitated should
not fail to take it; particularly females
suffering from those complaints incident
to the sex. Physicians now give it the
preference to all similar preparations. If
taken during exposnre to malaria it
strengthens tbe system to resist this poi
son, and prevents chill and fever, bilious
lever, and other intermittent attacks.

Perils of the Season.
Tha inhospitable winds and chilly logs cf spring
are unwelcome visitors to the feeble and ailing, and
are by no means congenial to the healthy. If there
is anv germ of diseaee lurking in the eyBtem, they
are sure to develop it, unless proper precautions are
taken to prevent snch a misfortune. Bilions com
plaints, dyspepsia, nervous debility, rheumatism,
irregularities of the bowels, and disorders which
affect the kidnejs, are aggravated by the peculiar
condition cf the atmosphere at this season. In
valids who are subject to any of these disorders, or
have a predisposition thereto, should therefore
forearm themselves against danger by strengthen
ing the digestive organs, the nervons system and
the muscular fibre with daily doses of Hostetter’s
Stomach Bitters. There is no period of the year at
which a stimulating tonic and regulating medicine
is more urgently required than in the spring; and
there is no preparation ef that class te which so
many valuable restorative and preventive proper
ties are combined in such a perfectly safe and harm
less form as in Hostetter’s Ritters. It may be stated
positively, as uncontradictmble fact, that a course of
this agreeable vegetable specific, commenced now
and continued through tbe spring months, will ef
fectually shield the inhabitants of marshy aud mi-
aamatic localities from the intermittent and remit
tent fevers caused by unhealthy exhalations from a
wet soil.

Is Sozodont, and if you cse it daily, the
white gleam of tbe pearls between the
parted rubies will prove its excellence as
a dentrifice, and the sweatness of tbe
breath will attest its purifying properties.
An invalntblo remedy for emigrants
and perbons traveling or temporarily
visiting malarious districts, is to be found
in Simmons’ Liver regulator. If taken
occasionally it will prevent chills, fever
and injurious effects fiom change of

keeping the bowels in natural motion
and cleansing the system of all impari
ties, and a positive care for constipa
tion. They restore the diseased liver,
stomach as 1 kidneys to a healthful ac
tion, while at the same time they brace
and invigorate the whole system.
