so, at present, bat the time will
come when they will rne the day they
advised their Northern allies to let loose
the negroes and arm them with the bal-
lot to insure the loyalty of the so-called
rebel States. By means of the loyal
leagues and oaths and mummeries, op-
erating on the superstitious minds of
the descendents of African pagans,
they may, for a time, wheedle and fool
them into giving up for their use and
pleasure all the office* and spoils; bat
this, in the very nature of things, can-
not last long. The negroes will soon
seo and feel their power, and wül exer
cise it for their own profit. And why
not, so fir as the radicals yare concern-
ed ? According to their doctrines, the
negroes are their brethren and equals,
entitled to the same political rights and
privileges; and, if so, why should they
make themselves the mere slaves of the
radicals, work for them and give them
all the offices and profits ? They will
reason thus, and correctly, too, from
radical premises^ and the consequence
will be, that they will first demand an
division, and then, feeling more

independent expounder of the law can
be ascertained by application at the
State Treasury. Instead of no Court,
liad his Honor decided that he was no

found numerous white folks tb agree
with him in opinion. Hc>w his Honor
expects to draw his salary and get the
reward of his well known loyalty, is to
ns a mystery. According to Ms decis-

was evidently '• counting without
host;" It was one of those plea¡
illusions to which poets are subject, a
castle built in the air, to fade and van-
ish away. Two years and a half have
gone bv since the Confedérate forces
laid down their arms and surrendered,
and the " cruel war" is not over yet,
and, from present indications, not likely
to be soon. It is raging in some sec-
tions as fiercely as ever, although not
attended with as much danger and
bloodshed. In fact, it is now a one-
sided fight altogether. The one party
is down, begging for quarter, and the
other, bending over and pummelling
away and growing braver at every cry
for mercy. After the heroes of the
war—the great and successful Union
Generals—tí rant and Sherman quit
fighting, seeing that the foe had sur-
rendered and was powerless, the civil-
ians and soldiers, who had previously
been busy with cotton and spoons, took
it up with a noble rage for glory and
plunder. Their exploits have thrown
into the shade the daring deeds of the
great Generals. Banks, by screwing
his courage up with a little of the ar-
dent, has secured more bales of cotton
than he gathered in the famous Red
River expedition. Butler, who was
himself bagged in the first part of the
war, has succeeded ih bagging more
spoils than he knows what to do.with,
and occasionally shells Out a portion
by help of the law. General Stevens
has fought the mighty battle of recon-
struction, leading on several millions of
darkies to the conflict, with.his eyes in
" fine phrenzy rolling," and his mouth
foaming with wrath. He exhibits no
symptoms of returning reason and mer-
cy,'and is determined on haying all the
lands as well as the negroes of the des-
pairing rebels. Gen. Holt, although
his. operations have been confined most-
ly to Washington City, has shown a
gallantry and daring which places him
in the front rank of the late heroes of
the war. With the help of Stanton and
Canover, he has succeeded instilling

Their vociferous braying and the stu-
pidity of their sermonizing has had the
effect to empty most of the Church
benches and to deter cultivated and in-
telligent people from attending Divine
services. In Scotland and several
other European countries it was, nntil
quite a recent period, regarded as an
ecclesiastical offense, punishable by
Church discipline, for a person to fail
or refuse to attend Divine worship on
Sunday. But it is fair to suppose that
when such men as Knox, Campbell,
Flint and Chalmers officiated in the
pulpit, it required no outside "pressure
to induce people to attend Church.—

tacks of the invading anny, the " im-; hours discourse of the kind
pediments," the "disloyal" and the
"hostile,"^all so "well known," have
given way and been routed. In the
former part of the war, it was thought
remarkable that so many great bathes
should be fought on Sunday, and, per-
haps, it is worthy of note, that the last
decisive battle of Austin was fought on
the Lord's day. About the usual hour
of attending church, paper bullets of
the new invention, to which we would
call the attention of our learned broth-
er of tile Galveston News, who lately
wrote bis famous article on "smells,"
were discharged on the dwelling houses
. i 1 : «ate or
the sublime truths of Sacred Scripture.
The idea of a plain, ignorant and unso-
phisticated man being "called" to
preach the Gospel by direct authority
from Heaven is simply absurd. I care
not how sincerely ha believes in the
validity of the "call" nor how great a
number of dupes he may find to attest
its divine character. I only say that
such a pretense upon the part of such
men is simply absurd, and without any
warrant of Scripture. A "called and
sent" preacher ascends the Jjialpit, and
gazing around upon the vacant benches
and the-sparse congregation, takes his
text "in the hind part Of Jolai," as was
announced a few years since in Fayette
County, and then commence by bitter
lamentations over the spread of infidel-
ity, the public indifference to the great
subject of religion, and after the enun-
ciation of a few sober truths, Bucb as
that we are all born in sin, that we
stand ;Íb need of a Savior and that we
are bound to die, &c., the Divine am-
bassador closes with a rambling prayer
and the services conclude.
Now and then one comes aióng of a
very different stripe. He is a man of
strength and muscle. He has a lond
voice and a great deal of electricity
and fanatical enthusiasm in his nature.
There is no doubt of the divinity of his
call. Let any man dare question it in
his presence! He ascends the sacred
desk with a cool, defiant air, and, after
gazing aronnd critically upon his con-
gregation, he opens the Bible and, ad-
justing his spectacles, takes his text
somewhere "in thfe fore part of Matth-
ew"—say the following: "Oh genera-
tion of vipers, who hath warned you to
flee from the wrath to come 1" Our
"son of thunder," having thus broken
ground in the front of the enemy,
launches forth in terrible denunciation
of sin and Satan. His voice is lond
and terrible. He beats his breast. He
pounds his Bible. He foame. He de-
scribes Hell with such fervid declama-
tion that its flames seem to roar in the
ears of his shrinking .hearers. His en-
thusiasm becomes contagions, until
finally a loud shout from the congrega-
tion is the signal for a succession of
commingled shouts and shrieks and
ejaculations for mercy. And this is
the climax which oar preacher started
out to reach, and succeeds after a two
described.
There is stiff another class of clerical
orators whose advent into the pulpit is
generally the signal for an exodus of
all that part of the congregation seated
near the doors and windows. I mean
those profound philosophical men who
pretend to understand tiie deep myste-
ries and hidden things of Scripture;
who rise wife a quire of closely written
foolscap in their hands, and with great
deliberation, proceed to read in a drawl-
ing tone a dull homily upon the being
and attributes of God,—the Incarna-
tion,—the Trinity in unity or some
other of those profound subjects which
havé puzzled the brains of men from
the time of Alexander the Coppersmith
until the present day. The effect of
of drivellers were banished from the
pulpit by the force of public ' opinion
and that, upon each succeeding sab-
bath, the Gospel could be preached
throughout the State by snch eloquent
divines as the late lamented James C.
Wilson, or the late Thomas Castleton
or Dr. Kendrick of Bastrop, or Mr.
Carnes of Galveston ? Or suppose we
could be enlightened and edified by
the learned, logical and instructive
discourses of such men as Carrington,
Burleson and Phillips ? Or suppose
we could once * week hear the Gospel
as preached with the power and vital-
izing energy of Robert Alexander
BucknerHams, or G. W. Carter?

irreconcilable difficulty between
Grant and the President, and calcula-
ted to mislead the public.
The variance in the views of the Ex-
ecutive and the General of the army,
relate only to the details of the orders
relieving Gen. Sheridan, and the as-
signment of Gen. Hancock to succeed
him.
Gen. Grant is understood to be op-
posed to relieving Gen Hancock from
souri, and objects to directing General
Sheridan to go without delay to Leav-
enworth.
Gen. Grant also raises the legal qnes-
tion upon the paragraph of the Presi-
dent's order which directs Gen. Han-
eock to exercise any and all the pow-
ers conferred by the acts of
The authorization is cc
annulling section 5 of Gen.
der of the 17th inst., and
regards it as encroaching
tions as fixed by the
acts which give him
trol over the acts of the
mandéis.
The President holds that
gives the District Commander
and absolute discretion, and that, al-
though the General of the army may
annul or disapproveacts of the District
Commander, he cannot, in the first in-
direct that officer as to the
coarse he shall pursue, ¡as Gen. Grant
directed Thomas in section five, above
referred to. In other words, that Gen.
Hancock, as the successor of Géneral
Sheridan, has no power% «evoke any
order heretofore made by the latter,
such as the removal of the iate officers,

prove such action and thus annul it.—
