'! h'-y are compared to rockets that no
up in a blaze an I come down and
the brevity of the:r career is ultilantiy
prophesied. If it be a denomination
witii bishops, a bishop is implored to sit
down heaviiy on the man who will not
be molded . or if a denomination with
out bishops, some of the older men with
nothing more than their own natural
heaviness an I theological avoirdupois
are a I - dto flatten out the innovator.
I i con'er -uces and presbyteries an i as

> -n t •• •: o-t la inn ible ea o .sy. Such
ecc epiasti, al tyrants would not admit
i that i'-alonsy had any possession of them,
! and they take on a heavenly air, and
talk sweet oil and sugar plums and balm
of a thousand flowers and roil up their
eves with an air of unctuous sanctity
w hen they simply mean the destruction
of thos 'over whom they pray an isnutfle.
I her • are cases w here ministers of re
h.-ion are derelict and criminal and they
must be put out.
lint i:i the majority of cases that I
have witneg-e I in ecclesiastical trials
there is a jea'ous atteuipt to keep men
I from s their theological fellows,
an l as at the Presidential elections in
counti v places the people have a barbe- *
cue which is a roa-ted ox round which
the people dance with knives, cutting otf j
a slii e here, and pulhnsr out a rib there, i
and saw a beefsteak yonder, and
ha-.'ing a hi.-h time so most of the de
-1 no ninat ons of Christians keep on hand
j a barln-cue in which some minister is
roas'e while the church murts dance
i around with their sharp knifes of attack,
; and one takes an ear, another a hand.
I .II >ther a foot, an 1 it is hard to tell
, whether the ecclesiastical plaintiffs of
this world or the demons of the nether
wori I most enjoy it. Albert Harnes,
tlian won no mftn has aec«implished
in.-re -jood in the last thousand vea-s,
; was de. i ed to sit silent for a y ar in the
1 p k w of his own chun h while some one
1 el s;. occupied his pulpit, the pretende I
oTens.' lh.it he did not bclievj in a
li uited atonement, but the real oM'ense
the fact that ail the men who tried him
put together would not equal one Albert
l»;i mes.
Yes, amid all professions and busi

] ami 1 all circles needs to be heard what
i io I savs in regard to envv an ! tealousv,
w ii h, though not exactly the same, are

bone :ere envy anl Ir.t- * i- there
is con usion and every evil work."
"Jealousy is the raire of a man."' My
hearers, if this evil passion is in any of

there is no nation so low in civilization

could enact high tarift laws or pro

that it raises revenue by taxing th*»

that it keeps our money at home and
maintains the balance of trade in our
favor. Whilst it does all this, the*
say at the same time it is no tax at
all. and that the tariff duty does not
enter into the price of the article on
which it is imposed ! It is mere pre
