Rev. Mr. Sabine, rector. on the late General Episcopal Convention. lie spoke ot tin conflict, with rltu'alishT going 011 tu the Church of England and in the Episcopal Church of tbis coun try, and asked why it is that there m ho such eonflictin other Protestant Chorch s. The first failure, he said, ot tlie Con vention whs m tier duty to the other re named Churches. Tiiey might seek in vain in nil the proceedings of ihat body for one recognition of the Protestantism eiisti.ig around her. They mht look in vain for one act, one speech recogniz ing the great Protestant Christianity around tier. 1 he canon that has stood on the Piatute hooks of that Convention since 1868, requiring each Bishop to ex clude all un-Epiecopal ministers from en tering the pulpits of the Church, was permitted to stand. Not a voice was up lifted to ask for its repeal not one pro test against it. On the other hand mark the action of the Convention toward the Greek Church. On the first day of the session a resolution was offered inviting the Greek clergy to take seats in the body. Now, be it remembered, that there is but one Greek priest on this continent, and he is iu ibis city. And yet they re cognized the equality of this Church, which is corrupt as the Church of Rome a Church that worships the Virgin and the saints, thai baptizes a little infant, light days old, by immersion three times, thcu contiuns it, and afterwards adminis ters the Lord's Suppor to the little infant re- Tbe next failure of the General Con vent ion was in oer stern retusal to grant any relief to the consciences within the t i a i i mi a oosoni oi cer ioia. l here uas existed a body of men who loved the Episcopal Church, for her services, her grand old liturgy ; they believe it to be the Church of the Reformatio!), and yet in regard to some expressions in the Prayer Book in reference to baptism they sought some relief and were denied. In the next place the General Conven tion failed to provide an adequate remedy for Ritualism.

Since that time the question has been agitated until the last Convent ion found that they should do something, and they pissed a canon on Ratualism as it is called. If they examined that cation it would be found that it, aimed at. only one thing the ser vices at the administration of the Lord supper. Everything else was iguored. Altars may be erected still in every church. Stone altars, (which the Reform- Tbe Cheapest and Purest Family Medicine in I ers cast out at the Reformation) with can dlesticks blazing, may still be introduced in every church. Colored vestments may be worn, surpliced choirs, and bowing to ward the altar when there are no elements upon it. But they were greatly mistaken if they thought that eucharisiic adoration was Ritualism. He tbeu proceeded to say that the root of all these errors lay iu the prayer-book of the Protestant Episco pal Church, where the word priest instead of minister was frequently used. There was but one remedy, and that was to take from the Piayer-Book the sacerdotal principle as represented iu the term priest. Bishop Cummins closed by referring to the encouraging prospects of the Reform ed Episcopal Church. The signs of pro gress had multiplied in a wonderful m -inner. He had just returned from a visita tion in the Dominion of Canada, where there were seven congregations, and ttie news that greeted hint as he entered the ciiy of Toronto was that a wlnde cougre--gation connected with the church of Eng land, numbering 400 members, had just joined their ranks. Iu, the diocese of Illinois there were five congregation's. In the Slate ot New York there were four congregations, in Pennsylvania tour, and iu the city ot L nisville there was also a flourishing congregation r and in Pittsburg another. Ill all, tarty clergymen and thirty parishes were iu union with their Church. New York Observer penalties of actions for all damages to wives and families resulting fro ji die sale otjjjquor, but the sale has in no wft diminished. So thai the im potency of prohibitory law stands confessed. The reason for all this is not the power of the liquor setters and manufacture?, but the numerical power of the consumers. The former, as a body, have no such numeri cal strength as gives them control of pub lic opinion. It is the consumers that have to he reached iu order to promote the cause of temperance. Iu what important respect does the evil of intemperance diff.-r from other evils, or sin t WW should legislation be invoked to suppress this evil more than other evils ? Our ministers have a mission to preach morality and a religious lite ; they make wag upon all kinds of sin, and for that purpose they preach and pray for Divine aid in converting the sinner from his errors to righteousness. All men and women are sinners. A much smaller number are drinkers, and comparatively few are drunkards. .These ministers do not pretend to appeal to tbe State to com pel men to live Christian lives ; they do not appeal to the State to compel men to join tbe Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, or any other Church, or to compel them to believe io Christ, or to worship God in any form. But, like sensible men, de vote their lives to the persuasion of other men to lead, better lives, to abandon sin, to have faith in Christ, and to join the Church. Tbe success ot the Christian ministry is due to tbe fact that its appeals are to the reason and intelligence of the people, and are tv t made through tbe statute-book, or the Grand Jury. Uow many converts would there be made un- der a law prohibiting sin, infidelity, ra tionalisuvor indifTereutism How many real penitents would there be, if atten dance on camp-meeting or church-services were compulsory i Why the evil of intemperance should be distinguished from any other evil iu its treatment we never have been able to appreciate. Every Legislature that as sembles has its calendar crowded with petitions asking and demanding prohibit ory legislation. That to good comes of such legislation is almost a matter of uui- veisal remark.

It cannot be denied that many of the white planters firmly believe that the blacks are in every reappet an inferior race,5 but that they are hardly treated on that aceonnt fs not trne. i nave neen in almost ail parts ot the State. in eities and in villages, and on remote plantations and I firmly believe that the black men and women in Ala t i a . m i Da ma are generally netter ted and eniov more freedom of action than , any class of farm laborers in Germany or France. That they are more their own misters than people of the same class at the North is not to he disputed. It can, withont exaggeration, be said that they come and go as they please. In the midst of cot ton picking I have known hundreds of them to leave their work and go on foot to attend a political meeting, not return ing for one and sometimes two days. Would they have dared do this in New York or any of the New England States t They are not always well clothed, if is trne, bnt the snow never falls here, and ice is a curiosity. As stated above, they are exceedingly well fej. Cornmeal and b.icon are given to them in abundance by their employers, and they are not slow in providing 'hemsves with the fish and game which abound. Many persons will be surprised to learn that many of the negro laboreres cherish the belief that they are in reality their own roasters, and that they are at liberty to work oi not, as it snits their convenience and inclination. This feeling is, no doubt, attributed to the peculiar system under which thev work. . r . . . i t x x -i n - .viatnew s great temperance reformation. ad ,i,e n(VVej relntion which exists be We are told that the greatest progress lweeu maater aild gervaut. As already ever made in any generation in lue way of temperance was that made by Father Mat hew, who addressed all his preaching to tbe consumers, pointing ont to ihem the injury they received from the use of whisky, and the benefit to them, spiritual ly and temporally, of abstinence. His preaching closed, perhaps, 30,000 grog gerics, aud the effects ot that preaching are visible to this day, though he has been dead for twenty-five years. Liquor is sold for the resulting profits. Without consumers, there would be no sales. Appeals to the intelligence aud reasons of the consumers is the most ef fective way to promote temperance. The evil of drinking must be pointed out, and explained iu a former Tetter, the planters, soon after reconstruction, finding them selves unable to pay their laborers, agreed I to furnish implements, in return for which -1 US m . a tiiey were to receive a snare ot tne crop. This system is carried out iu various way. In some cases the land-owners give the negro one-fourth of the crop he cultivates, and feeds and clothes him. Another plan is to iet 'the loborer have one-third of the product of the land, one hundred ai.d twenty pounds of bacon and two acres of ground for his own use. In this way it will be seen that a field hand is, to a certaiu extent, the planter's part per iu business, and, consequently, not entirely under his direction. When thev likewise the beuefits of abstinence, through do not woik, tbe negroes say that they such powerful mediums as Father Mat hew, themselves are the losers, aud no one has aud not through incompetent, uneducated Hny right to interfere. This independence aud untrained lecturers, and book agents, has resulted in badly cultivated fields, aud superannuated clergymen. Lei our gifted preachers whose burning eloquence carries dismay aud consternation to the hearts of sinners aud drives them to a confession ut guilt aud a conviction of their sins, preach against this evil. Con viction must precede conversion. The drinking mail will never yield until his rea son is convinced ; no statutory coercion ! will ever change his habits ; moral suasion may and argument small crops and consequent poverty." Every Southern man will recognize the fidelity ot this picture. It is 'rue, as this intelligent correspondent asserts, after a careful investigation', - that tbe colored people are "better fed. and enjoy more freedom of any class of farm laborers in Germany or France.' It is a misfortune with the negroes that they do not appre ciate this fact. While slaver, they were forced to labor, aud thev interpret free Belle Boyd. Havannnh Advertiser.

An intelligent and esteemed correspon dent a ladyasks the ' Editor of tbe andmark" in a very patronising and eliug manner to "impress upon tbe present Legislature the great importance of some effective legislation in behalf of be temperance cause.' Our very clever friend can be assured that the "Editor of tbe Landmark" is a strong, frieud to the cause she nobly es pouses ; but that be differs with many of its most zealous advocates, probably 1 . at a . f a. . herself among the number, as to itie etn cacy and policy of statutory temperance. We differ, widely, too, with those who breath nothing but maledictions and threats, and appeal to coercive measures against intemperance. VVe regard tbU fanatical class of reformers a positive curse to the cause of temperance. Herein is the .grand fault of very many temper ance advocates, especially clergymen Intemperance is an evil -a wide spread evil ; tor the use of stimulants is univer-; sal ; it exists among all nations and at all times. It seems to be the result of a natural appetite, which, like all other hu man appeties, way be abused. Human ingenuity has never been able to devise an v law. regulation, or system of govern ment hv which it can be prohibited. If r - , ST there be any difference, the use of intox icating liquors If' more general in Chris tian countries than elsewhere. Tbe fail ure of all attempts to prohibit its use baa led to the more practicable measure of limiting its abases by rigid regulations for ui tale.

Iu this age, more than in anv oth er of the world's history, newspapers are the moulders ot parotic sentiment A large multitude of the human family have no other guide than their family newspa per. This being the condition of things, we desire to peo a few senteoeee - whoa modern weddings and funerals, in masV erM parlance, a. wedding, ia-a marriage party, and a fuuerii is a burial party. The guest who attend the former are all expected to laugh and make merry, and tne attendance on the latter, are an ex pected to make long fasti and be aad. Let all be glad and rejoice do have juat grounds, for rejoicing and let, all. be sorry and sad who have cause to gtieve, provi ded tbe joy of the former and toe sorrow ot the latter are kept within proper bounds. There is this difference between a mar riage party and a funeral party. To the former, only invited guest are expected to attend. Any one may attend the latter that feels disposed to do so. With this conventional arrangement we have uo particular objection. What we object to is the excesses which are practiced both at a funeral aud a wedding. There will be burials aud marriages in the world as long as civiliza tion exists. All the human family, by an unalterable fiat, must die, and civiliza tion, as well as religion, deminds that the bodies of tbe dead be iu some decent way removed oat of tbe sight of the liy tng. 1 here will, whilst the world lasts, be marriages ; for both good morals and a .4 tne interest ot civilization make Dtoding upon most men and women to marry Marrying, however, is one thing, and i marriage party is another. So also, bury ing a dead man is one thing aad the pomp and display of a funeral is another thing. Usually, a marriage is a cause of joy; but still it is a very solemn thin ; to mar ry. loo frequently it is the beginning of sorrows innumerable. It makes an epoch 4 1. II iii any man s lire, and not as seldom as might be expected, an epoch of sorrow a a i t m and shame. A morbid state ot society i demands that a marriage be attended with an expensive and lordly entertain ment. All tbe kin, and many of the neighbors, must be iuvited to enjoy the feast. All that is, if uot foolish, at least very useless. It entails upon tbe families, to which the bridegroom and bride be long, a heavy expense, and really profits no one anything. Nat ouly is the enter tainment a useless expense, but the dress of the bridegroom and bride is often nothing but a useless" extravagance. It often occurs that a young couple start in tbe world with no.bing bnt a fine and I W 111. graudy wa-d robe. It would be tar bet ter for young people, wbeu they detei niine, to marry, simply to marry and save tbe money usually invested in cakes and candy, and the same is true respect lug fu nerals. There is no sort of use or propriety iu surviving relatives' going to great ex pense in the burial of their dead. Much of the parade that is made over the dead is as empty and as transparently affected as air. It is right and becoming that the dead be decently buried ; bat it is un called for and a useless extravagance to put a royal robe m a body to be laid away in the ground to rot. Living bodies are clothed lor the purpose of making them both comfortable and decent, but the only object in putting clothes on a dead body is to make it decent. Funeral expenses often are really burdensome. The rich think, or seem to think, that they show their affection for their dead by placing their lifeless corpses in costly Caskets. This is all nonsense. Not un- trequently is the glaring inconsistency demonstrated by the bitter animosities which spring up in a few d tys about the estate of the deceased.

Religion Enhances Every En joyment. We may see how completly religion is adapted to tbe nature of man by observing that even the elements of enjoyment (and they are many, though fleeting) which this world contains are never fully tasted but by religious persons. Those abaodauts sources of pnre de light which are to be found iu the heart, the intellect and the imagination, are never received in their fulness but by tbem. And why t Because they are ibe germs of their future and more glorious being, aud can ouly nourish in a soil akta to that ultimately desti..ed for ihem. In a worldly mind, like plants removed from their original soil and clip ale, they exist indeed, but with a blighted existence; and produce, but how degeneraled is the production ! Everything that wants religion wants vitality. Philosphy, without religion, is crippled and impotent ; poetry, without religion, has no heart-stirring powers ; life, without religion, is a complex and unsatisfactory riddle; the very arts which address them selves to the senses never proceed so far towards perfection, as when employed ou religious subjects. Relion, then, can be no obstcale to en joyment, sirce the ouly sources of it, which are confessedly pure, are all enbauced by its possession Even in the ordinary commerce with the world, what a blessing awaits aa exemption from the low and sordid a Our Living and Our Wo are pleased to learn that ! teemed frieud, Col.
