Talking cf sects quice late one ere, What ooeand another ot saints bel tere, That night I stood in a troubled drcim, - By the side of a darkly flowing stream, And a "Churchman" .town to the river came, Wheo I hoard a strange voice call hi* name; "(Jood father, stop; when y. u cross this tide You matt leave your robes on the other side." Bit the aged father did not mind. And his long gown floated out behind. As down io thc stn am his way he took, Dis band* heid finn a gilt-edged book. ..I ui boun<l for heaven, and when I'm there I shall want n y Book of Common Prayer ; And though 1 put on a sturry crown, I should leel quite lost without my gown." Then he fixed bis eyes on the shining track, But his gown wag heavy and held bim back, And the ].r old fm her tried io vain A single step io tbe fl'od to gain. 1 saw him ?gain on the other side. But his silk gown floated on the tide, Ari ! nu one asked in that blissful spot, If he belonged to the "Church" or not. Then down to the river a Quaker strayed; His dress ot a sober hue was reade. "My h;it and cout must be all of gray ; I cannot go any other way." Then be buttoned his coat straight up to his chin, An 1 staidly, solemnly, wr.dcd in. Ami bis broad brimmed hat bc pulled down tight Over his furchend, so cold and white. But a strong wind carried away his bat, And he sighed a few moment- over that; And theu as be razed to the farther shore, The coat slipper ott', and was seen no more. P>ior dying (juarker.' thy suit uf gray Is quietly Mittag-away-away ! But tboaPl gu to he i ven, as straight as an arrow, Whether thy brita be broad or narrow. Next ca<ne Dr. Watt?, with a bundle of psalms, ' Held carefully up in his aged palms, j And hymns as many-avery wise thing That the people in heaven, "all round," might j sing. But I thought that be heaved an anxious sigh, As he saw that the river ran brood and high, And looked rather surprised, as one by one j T..e psaltnns and hymns in the waves went down. And after him with bis M SS., Came Wesley, the pattern of godliness; But he cried, "Dear me. what shall 1 do? The water has soaked them through and through !" And there, on the river, far and wide, Away they went on tho swollen tide, And i ii e saint, aston i?!;ed. parsed through alone, Without his manuscripts, up to the throne. Then gravely walking, two saints by name Down tn the stream together came: But as tiiey stopped at the river's brink, I saw .m.? s.iinc irorn the other ?brink. "Sprinkled or plunged, m iy I ask ycu, friend, Have you attained to lite'.? great end ?" "Ti nt. with a lew drops on my brow;" ' Bu' I h.ive hem dipped, as you'll see me now. A if I reilly think it will hardly do, As I'm 'close communion,' to cross with you; You're hound, I know, to the realms of bliss. But you must go that way, mia I'll go thi?." Ana straightway plunging with all hi. might Away to the ?eft-his friend to the right---. Ap.irt ! ley w*nt Troin this world ef sin ; But together the brethren "entered in." And now wlare the river was rolling by, A PreshyrerUn church came nigh ; Of w..m. :i there seem?! an innumerable throng; But the men I could count as they passed along. And runcorniug thc road they could never agree, The oM, or the ?ctr way, which it could be ; Nor ever a moment paused to il,Ink Thal both would l?ad to thc river's brink. And a Sound of murmuring, long and loud, Came ever up from thc niovnigcrowd "You're iu the old way. and I'm in thc new Tun is the false, and ibis is the 'rue;" Or, .I'm in the old way, and you're in the new-. Thit is the false, and tk it is the true." But the bfth'en only s?cmed to speak Modest the fibers walked and meek ; At.d if ever one of them chanced to say What troubles she met With on the way, How ?he hinged to pass to the other >i'ie, Nor faired to cross over the swelling tide, A roi -c arose from t ie brethren then, ..Let no one speak but thc 'holy men.' Fur have you not hoard the word? of Paul? "Ob. let 'h.- w .trien keep silent alt."' "WHIPPER" LASH*.?? ?IR OHIO GOVEKNOH. Tim Harley think? the .Tleaeage Writer the Killer ol ?Jock Kubin. During a recent wiao^le io the FIou.se on the "bond swindle" question, our Ohio Governor was handled without glows. A number of spicey speeches were made From the (Jbariesfou Cou? rt'r's report, we fake those of \V. J. WHIPPER (colored ond) TIM HARLEY We J re sure our readers wili enjoy them : WHIPPER'S SPEECH. At the outset he disclaimed any in trillion, as the author of the resolution deferring the reading of the message on Tuesday la>t, to slight the Governor. There were but lew things to which he would refer in the message, which, io bis opinion, was not ?uah a message as an honest man would bare presented to a Legislature. Personally, he en'sr taiucd the kindest feelings towards R. K Scott, but officially, bis opinions would be seen in the remarks which he was about to make. The great question con'aioed in the message was the ques? tion of the finances The Governor had attempted to quiet the people ot thc State by what kt called "a true exhibit of the debt ol the State." This exhibii the speaker proceeded to dissect, arni show by figures and facts its falsity. Ht said, even taking the Governor's state ment, fioancial ruin was steering th? people in the lace. But what ramon were abroad io the land? He bad heard enough to believe that Governor Scott'i statement did not show half the actna debt of the State. The report ot th< Treasurer, which accompanied the mes ?age, shows, on the face of it, that it ii faUe. He then alluded to the repon o the "committee of citizens," which ha already been published. This report said he, is only based upon what account they were shown. How many of chi accounts they were allowed to see, Got only knows. The report ?hows, ii every line of it, a predisposition on th: parf. of the committee to cover up tb tracks of the monsters who have plas dered the Sute. He did not mean t impugn the motives of the committee But who were they but men who would most naturally, spring to the invit?t iou such as had bees extended them. The were of that class of Bea who were ic terested io the State hoods. The re port itself waa drawn out, he said, b the representativa o? ? bat*' which ba invested its money io booda, and it wu natural for them to attempt to bolate up their tottering fortunes. He honestly believed tbe debt ol the State to be $18,000,000 to ?20,000,000, and years faence, when the truth wonld have a hearing in thia matter, (ifs pre dictions would be verified. But whe ther trwas$ll.0fo.O?0, or 815,000,000, or 820,000.000, the result was the same -financial ruin. Ail this chowed that the Government had proved itself a fail ure. The question now wus, "Ia there a remedy, and. il'io', is the? General As? sembly educated up to the point of ap plying it " Figures will show (said lie) j to any calculating, reasoning mind, that i we caunot carry on the Government as? it now exists without laying' a tax of twenty or twenty two mills on the dol- j lar. Will you dare to Itvy that tat?' Your constituents will never stand it. It remains fer yon. then, to accept the only remaining remedy-there is one thing left us-we are driven to repudia tiou. We need no Act of the Legisla? ture to accomplish this; we bave but to submit quietly, and the result will bring on repudiation. We can forget to pass an Act to provide for the payment of the lVe-est on thc public debt, and this will be virtual repudiation. I am not inter? ested in bonds of any kind, aud, for one, ! I do not intend to allow the men to en? joy them whom I have assi.-ted to hoist in<? into puwer. The time has now come j when we mu-t either do something ot give up tbe attemp: to carry on the Gov? ernment. I, for one, will not share thc ignominy of this man, (the Governor,) and not share his bonds. Ile has shown in his message that he has violated the law, and it is now the time forac:ioo. I am ready for impeach ?cent ; r?ady to j sie thc guilty go to the penitentiary.- j Knough is known not only to impeach them, but to send them to some narrow confine?, there to meditate upou their past crimes. HURLEY'S SFEECH. He said that as a membor of the joint committee, which was to report io a few days, he had intended not to say any? thing on the subject, but lie was pre paied to say this much. A lie, upon my soul, a lie. That every statement con? tained io that message, in reference lo the debt of thc State, was a lie. lie was, moreover, prepared to say thai thc debt of the Mate Was more to day than Iv. K Scott dared to tell the people. He thanked God that in thc constitutional and otht-r conventions ht had persistently refused to vote f>r thc men who to-day ou-ht tote tn the peuitentiaiy. (Wheth? er 1 ought tobe there ornoi-v>to roce.)] Lust year I ??ave him thc t;atne of thc dog killer. This year he ht s earned the name of credit killer. ?Veil, this credit killer says that this will bc his last an- ' mi a I message. I duubt if fe is telling the truth in that fraud If there is ;.ny money left in the Treasury I have no doubt he will try to buy bims-lf in again, and the wires are cvtn LOW being laid. He will attempt again to foist hit !f on the State. There never was a Governor who made as m my differett statements concerning the finances ot the State. But that is not his fault, be? cause he can't tell thc truth, even if he were to try. Why, even ;he books which he exhibited so will ng'y to the Tax-pujers' Convention wtre prepared for the purpose. He then asserted th t the <i< cline in thc price of bonds waa caused by the Governor. The rapid de? cline was caused by Scott to enable him itti purchase bouds enough to cloak up i th?: over-i-suo. Re had stole:? 510,000, (JUD ai d run down the price in order to buy and cloak up his theft. He didn't know what injury the Governor ever djd to the mau that, wrote the message but that tran will certainly be able to write over his tombstone, when fie dies, I am the man who killed cock robin. He did not believe that 814.000,000 would cover fthc fraud He knew, for a fact, that a tuan was in New York last summer with a blank commission in his pocket, trying j to get some broker or banker to negoti? ate the sterling bonda\ This commis? sion was signeirj in biso* by the Govern? or, and was hawked around among the financial men, who were begged to take the loan and negotiate it. So far as the Legislative ?pensejs,. to .which, the Gov? ernor had referred, there was tnia to be said: If the Legislature were to remain tn session year in and year out, the ex? penditure would nor/be half as great as that caused by the Governor's stock ope? rations. He bt liev.ed that the members of the l?gislature had made np their minds to hoist one of those fellows in the ring, and if they were true to them selves they wou'id begin by impeaching the Governor.

Why should these rreat nscah go "scott free?" -, Why should the hon est laboring "meo of tho country b< compelled to pay taxes to sustain those who ride io luxury aod speculate in bonds stolen from thc State? It is time that these things cease. The cry ol Republicanism wilr not save these precious rascals in the future. That cry has lost its charm to the negroes,, who are now stsrviog for want of food and are half naked, after years' labor spent in following a half vagrant Jife, waitin? for the fulfillment of promises made but never intended to bc fulfilled by those villainous demagogues. Let tbetu be aware. The thunder cloud portends a coming storm which will sweep them ??.way. . :. ? . . . ?. . The editor of the Missionary Rcrord, in the same issue, continues as follows : Wno IS RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR FINAN? CIAL RUIN. Thc question of responsibility tor thc present condition of this State is one which forces itself upon every iutejli gent voter, upon every poor man, woman and child io the Commonwealth, because every interest is affected by thc financial wreck of this State. No one can scan thc reports mode by thc various parties relative to the expenditure* aud issues of bonds by our State offici.?'?. without discovering the intention of I rand and peculation, \, careful ex aniii.ntion into the tacts show that there must have been a deep laid plan to plunder thia State by a few leading tuen, whose whole aim was to posses 'lieinselves of the proper power through legislative enactments, and then ac con>p)i*h their purposes with impunity We trace their actions through a series uf measures, brought to tbej^gtslaturc by themselves, and pa>sed at their owu suggestions and argent requests, repre? senting that witIto t their passage the State could not succeed, and the Re? publican party could not maintain its power in tin.* State. Io 18?8the "Bill to redeem the Rills of the Rank of thc State," was presented to-the first Legis lat ure which assembled under Recon? struction. It was presented asa measure essential to the honor and integrity of the Stat'', and it was passed ; and it sub sequent ly turned out, that every one of those who urged its passage upon the colored members of the Legislature, wi'h so much vehemence, w_ere intt-r e-tedf: tmd had bonghc Q^ hur?dreds of thetill, aod held them awaiting the pas-age of the Rill. Through this action they made thousands of dollars. The uext Act of the Legislature which gave authority to issue bonds was at their instigation, and so of every act authorizing the issue of bond?, have been at the instigation of the State officials.. The Legislature have had too nindi confidence in those gentlemen, for the good of the State. Whatever of critic that tnfy attach to the cflrWials of this State is the result of their own actions, free,and -entrammelled by the Legislature. The responsibility reata with them entirely The regprt-states tb'attrrtrt ha? beon an orer issue of bonds to the amount of $8)10-',000, authorized by the Legisla? ture I* these officials proceed to this over issue without law, then they are guilty of malfeaseoce in office, and of high handed fraud. Now tbe Finaneial : Rea rd, composed of the Governor, : Treasurer and Attorney-General, they should have known of every issue of bonds in the name of the Stafe ; and the question forces itself bpoTt-os whether they are not responsible for this fraud' Nu booda could be issued without the i signature of the Governor and Treasur? er, ro that they at least are accessory to every fraudulent act committed by such ' issues.
