He was recently nominated for the State Senate by tho Meck lenburg Populists. The practice of opening political conventions with praye'r i9 a hol low sham aud a mockery of sacred things. The like has been done twice here of late. The invoking of a divine bleesins on a political meeting undr certain circum stances might be in order, but it was evidently not in order here last Saturday to -ask divine guid ance for men w no. had already made up their miuds how they were go ing to be guided, long before the Lord was asked to take a hand. they workfor I ho defeat of the Re publicans ?

I ; 1 . i ihe ix ew iorK &un, tne censor of everybody and everything.lately talked about "the Classis of the Lutheran church.'' The fact is that the Lutheran church has no such body, and never did have. The News and Cbserver, of last Sunday, referred to "Rev. Sila3 McBee of Lincolnton ' in connec tion with what it termed the "gold fiasco" at Greensboro. The fact is that gentleman is not a preach er, nor did he say anything to shock the "reverential nature" ot the righteous editor-of the News and Observer. The gentleman in question is just" plain Mr. Silas McBee, and is a very lovable and accomplished gentleman, and an architect of rare attainments, but not a preacher. es of the community were suiTering greatly from the inroads the new sect were making, and that thi prompted tne violence.. inose who claim the constitutional right to worship God as they yleaje ought, in reason, tc allow others the same right.
