t For the Palladium. That TJalnae Snrarn Preeentatlan- j ' As the editor of . the Palladium has kindly forwarded to me a copy of his paper containing the communication of "One who was There," in ' reference to an "essay" which first appeared in the Palladium of
the fifteenth instant, my attention is called to the subject again, and some thonghtsare suggested. . Will
the editor allow mo to say something more on the subject? ' I am . glad my 'essay" . was re
published for one reason, it shows
the connexion in which those paragraphs, were used, which my critic calls attention to. The meaning and intention is often lost by sentences being taken out of their connexion. That is the way some people quote and apply the sacred scriptures. I am glad also, that my "essay" was republished for an other reason, the public have already answered that by demanding its republication. , There is an old saying which may apply here: "straws show which way the wind blows." Most gracious reader, don't you like (?) to explain a joke or jest? Since I came to think of it, it is hard hearted, it is "awful" as the
children say to talk about "sticking a sword through a missionary," and more "awful" yet when you think of the "fat baby;" poor little
thing! There are those who still have to : "tabernacle in the flesh," however much they live in the "Higher Life," and on the summit of Mount Pisga, who are so hypercritical and so hyper fas tid eons that they are shocked at any reference being made to that long eared gentleman with a disagreeable, voice. How mortified Balaam would hare been at the angel that spake to him at a certain
time, in a certain way, if his eye of
prophecy could have een our day!
Yet, "One who was There" finds an
apt heading for an essay, in this of
fending paragraph. Let me call
your attention to the closing sen tenceof my critic's essay:
"Now, it ecms lo me, the heart from
There," gives the words of the 2'2d verse, by mistake, instead of the 27th verse. Let ns see what else the people brought besides those things enumerated in the 22d verse, " for the
work of the Tabernacle of the congregation, and for all His service, and for the holy garments;" (not a word about giving to the heathen. ) " And every man with whom was found blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair, and red skins of rams, and badger's skins, brought them. Every one that did offer an offering of silver and brass brought the Lord's offering; and every man with whom was found shittim-wood for any work of the service, brought it And all the women that were wise hearted did spin with their hands, and brought that which they had spun, both of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine linen. And all the women whose hearts stirred them up in wisdom spun goats' hair. And the rulers brought onyx-stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breast-plate ; and spice, and oil for the light, and for annointing oil, and for the sweet incense;" and so on to the end of the subject. If I was an Israelite, I could better appreciate the paraphernalia of the
Jewish Tabernacle, and want noth- ! ing better' than the Old Tes
tament. If I was a Soman Catholic I would see reasons for keeping up some of the old dispensation' usages. If I wa an Infidel I
would like to see the scriptures per
verted.
But what has all this description of
how the tabernacle was set up by
Moses, to do with establishing a precedent for certain things which came to pass in a Quaker meeting, on the ninth of Nov., A. D. 1873?
What has this to do with the nine
teenth oonturj of the Christian era?
How does this apply i the ceremonies and performances of a Christian church, most especially of the sect called Quakers, who have come oat from forms and ritsiiim, and have
set aside cerentoaies that are generally
practiced by other Cferktiaa sects and
which were instituted by Christ?
I leave people food natural sence,
as well am biblical scholars, and those
who have known the wriptures front
their youth, to decitie the question.

Ames in person at 4 p. m. Juno 22, 1868, and also that this money went to pay a debt duo Amos B. Merrill, an attorney for Mr. Ames at the time. As an instance of the . injustice -of the warfare upon Mr. Colfax, we take the following from the St Louis Dispach: The Globe has settled the Colfax Oakcs Ames business for the fiftieth time. Mr. Colfax caff now quit talking to Sunday schools, and make another drive for the pedestal of a Christian statesman. The Dispach knew it could neither dispute the statement nor impugn the motives of Mr. Drew,' who is neither a personal nor political friend of Mr. Colfax, so, as is usual with that class of journals, it falls back upon the fling at Christanity The only question in this
whole matter was one of veracity, or rather of memory, between Mr. Colfax and Mr. Ames. Mr. Ames testifies that he gave this identical check to Mr. Colfax,' while Mr. Colfax just as positively denied ever having reoieved it or the money. The bank account of Mr.

financial depression. -They would tend to encourage thrift, industry, and wise economy. They would af ford'the Government an opportunity of saving millions in the item of interest alone, by refunding its present high interest bonds with

For the Palladium. William Kaxtar. No doubt many of your readers arc
interested in hearing from William
Baxter, the indefatigable laborer in
the cause of temperance, through the
columns of the Palladium, who has
been traveling throughout onr State leaving the comforts of home, and aa interesting young family, for no
other motive than to fortify and build up the good cause in Lhe minds of the people, that they may defend and sup
port our excellent temperance law, that friend Baxter was so instrumental in placing on onr statute books at oar last Legislature. Too much praise aad appreeiallea for his untiring labor in the eas.se of temperance in our own community, juj well as the State, can
not be bestowed. Especially are we pleased with the disposal ear friend Baxter made of the proffer of an ovation tendered him by - oar citizens, to eoue off oa the eveaiag""of the 3d of
December next,by decliniag it peremp

and its cost appropriated to the poor
of the city. This saugestion, we un-
deniaad, will be carried out; bat a temperance meeting in Lyeenni Ball, on Wednesday evening next, we are
informed, is resolved on by the com
mittee, to which all our citizens are
invited. This is a sensible change, and we trust the hall will be crowded
to hear from onr friend Baxter, and
to take the proper steps to enforce the law against those who axe engaged in
manufacturing drunkards, by appoint

There was no request for secrcey, and only a statement that it might be prudent to withhold the publication until he could see if the man who received the money from Ames could be found. Mr. Drew's statement was clear, specific, and backed by circumstantial evedence of great impor-

a hostile press failed to shake either his statement or his standing.

The Democratic press, from one
end of the country to the other,
demand the resignation or deposition of Secretary Fish. The trouble with the Democratic press is that Mr. Fish has not embroiled the countty in a war without the assistance of Congress. Had the Administration been so hot and unwise as to precipitate a war with Spain before the assembling of Congress, the Democratic press could have enjoyed the rare privilege of charging upon the head of the President Csesarism, despotism, and a violated Constitution, all on account of the affair of the Virginius. The responsibility of declaring war is placed by the Constitution in the hands of Congress. That body will meet next Monday, its members fresh from their vavT" ons constituencies. As the President and his advisers hare been
free from haste and passion in the treatment of an exceedingly grave question that of peace or war so we expect Congress will deliber ate calmly and act with vigor if offensive action becomes necessary. Meantime, if President Grant wants to reorganize liis Cabinet, he probably knows how to do it without advice from a partisan press universally hostile to his administration and to the wisdom of its gen eral conduct

Disputes are not settled nowaday by a personal encounter between the opposing chieftains, bat by battalions that shake the earth with their tread. If it were a question with Kings, Presidents, and Ministers whether, incase of hostilities,
their own lives should be sacrificed

Under ordinary circumstances the
power of declaring war rests with Con
gress alone, cut it tne not-beaded Spaniards should attack one of our vessels now cruising in the vicinity of Cuba, the President would haTe a right to declare a state of war by the act of Spain. If it does come, this country will gobble up Cuba bo quick as to make the Spanish head swim. In the vicinity of Janesville, Wis., is an old farmer, who waited till his threshers bad got through, and then tacked a notice on his barn door to the effect that he had suspended payments. Ue says all the money is locked up in grain, and bo recommends calmness and coolness until he can realize on it.
Hints for taa Season. Push forward the fattening of beeves as fast as possible. The best flesh is laid on before the coldest weather. Give the shelter of good warm sheds to your stock, and stable the milk cows. If this be not possible, give them the best protection you can. Poor fences are a temptation to peo
ple to steal rails for firewood, and the careless farmer is in part answerable
for the crime.
