“The gold hill raised the price of gold in the United States, and fA»» predated Us shipment la other countries, and encouraged Us in/roducfion into this.’*

The Independent Order of Odd Fellows on Saturday last, during their procession, occupied tbs Methodist Meeting House in ibis place a short time, for tho delivery-of an address to the

Dear yitt:—I bate thin moment returned from bearing Ge tt . Howard deliver eos of the best and most impartial speeches oit the fiabjcr.t of Naliunal and Slate politic* I ever heard. Ha is certainly a dignified, patriotic and worthy citizen, ll you have an opportunity of bearing him, you wilt bo gratified beyond what your imagination can now conceive. His manner, bis appearance, bis voice! bis gestures, alt tend greatly to render him agreeable and interesting, tie has a dark complexion, very tall, with an eye as piercing as light; and hid manner is such'as to render every one easy in bis company. Ho ppokc so well and so much to the point, and removed so many of the a tumbling blocks,, that even the "toppir headed’ 1 Wings admitted lliat lie is a correct man, and they were troubled in ibeir beads about iho elfeci that 'Would be produced by ibis people listening to his speeches throughout the State. Not a word’was uttered\gainst an individual, not a Eculance in derisipfi; l|c established the leading measures of the General .Government and ael forth his views as to State* policy.—lie ■ays.stbp the works and.sell them'out to the best possiblo advantage to companies and let them pay our debts, fee. The gold spoon and ■landing army story vanished at a word. The reason he did not attend at Vevay, was owing to his being detained on his way, and his appointments having gone before him, he wa* obliged to hurry qn to overtake them at some point, and this was the first. ■ ' '

“This increase, sufficient to'derange the affairs of airy nation, must be attributed to the Government.”

for the me of which, nothing wts extecled nor intended to be charged. They how. jer, voluntarily took up a collection among the brethren of the Order, and presented the church with $19 SO as a donation; for which, the warm' est thinks of the trustees of the same, is hereby tendered toThem. J. B. L.

Such are the sentimenlsof the leading men of that patty. So long as gold and silver bears the same price here as in other countries, and our trade with those countries is kept in a healthy and sound state,.its shipment will be prevented;, consequently, those connected with tho banking institutions, will not be export it to other countries, because no profit would ayee from its exportation. :

“The General Conference of the, Methodist Episcopal Church, recently held at Raltlmore, took up the sunject of temperance in connection with church 'discipline, aud a- very interesting discussion ensued*—One.of the most eminent of thftir preachers. Dr, Coferi, of Sntjlh Carolina, took occasion to warn the assembly against the effect upon 'the temperance caase, of: making “Aorcf cider" the watchword of a party in the politics) contests of the country. *iFlls remarks are said to have been of tljV most direct and impressive character.

He represented it as one of the most potent modes of putting down the temperance ‘reform, tempting especially the young from the path of moral duly’, and leading them “drunkards to iljetr graves.” ’ - “The language of »<iis eloquent divine, who has never been, a friend to the Administration, was that, of for the cause of morality and rcl'n ion, now placed in eminent danger by “log cabin” and “hard cider”electioneering, producing riotous gatherings, drunkenness,, and all sorts of debauchery and, disorder.- Armedby the power of truth, his warning voice must sink deep into the hearts of It is hearers, and go far to convince them, that neither the 'cause of “/cmprranct" or "liberty" can be by the means now used to induce the people (o make a change in the Administration. —Religious and moral men every where will begin,io ask themselves, whether that political cause oan be a goad one which borrows from the devil i It meant of tup~ port!"
