Ouc of the most remarkable religious
Htwements Whiclr 1 haH r chftrctcii*(Ul tl»e

France.
FrfniT «U wc can gather, this move
ment u largely indebted for its origin
- and vigorous growth to the patriotic
contktions of intelligent !• rencumen
that there can bo no hope for rational
liberty and the permanency- of llcgubli-

« hard says, “ Through the fire of a living
faith, that element so indispensable to
the"life of nations;’' for, as Dr. Toc-
qmvSl'rt has wisely expressed himself:
Dlbpotistn may govern without fuith,
but liberty cannot. Religions faith is
more needed, polititally speaking, in
DontocraUp republics tbati under any
oilier f>rtns of goVemmfcnt. How is it
possible tfrtt sccifty should escape des-
Iructi m if the moral tie l<e not strength
cncd in proportioh ns (die political lie is
relnxeil? and what can Ire done with a
people which is its own wastor, if it obey
not God and eonsclchec ? ’
The two most prominent arm] rtalous
propagandists of the new i^ovetnent are
Paul Bouchard and Kugcnc Itcveilllmd,
the former a by preacher, proprietor of
extensive vineyards in the neighborhood
of Beaune in Burgundy and formerly
mpyot of that city; the latter, recently
ordiiued a preacher, though born and
educated a Catholic, has for many years
identified himself prominently with the
mo Jem school of materialism, and has
been until recently a professed free
thinker.
In the mtturan of 187# Reveilland
seems to have been the subject of a re
markable conversion, through a boatifle
vision, which appeared to him as sud
denly as to St. Paul on his way to Da*
mason*. Ascending one day a Protes
tant pwlpk in the south of France, Re
veilland gave ah' account of what had
occurred to him the previous night; he
spoke of n vision, of a sudden light, a
baptism of grate which was vouchsafed
to him. ,
Both these evangelists arc waging
a desperate warfare against materialism
on the one hand and Ultramontauism or
Teulr \o’*lk«iteter; Q $SViM M
and ablest statesman that France now
possesses, and who, as a materialist, tells
the mtittitutfc of his countrymen, “ after
fhw life annihilation, when the body
d es all dies.” Paul Bouchard, with
terrible earnestness, thus addresses the
skeptical President of the French it
semblv: ‘''And when you shall have
created! a nation of materialists, what
will yvtw have produced? Desperate
covetousness, insatiable appetites, un
restrained nmbition and incessant revo*
lution, arising from the conquest of the
good things of this world, not by slow,
persevering, honest work, but by po
litical games of chance, immoral enter
prises, deceits, robberies and lastly by
force. • * * * \
liberty cannot exist with Ultrainon-
tanism, whose principles arc doimuaiiV'Q
and servitude; neither can liberty exi
ist with Atheism,-whibh denies God and
the future life.”
This mighty contest may bd the dawn
of better things ih|!t unhappy France,
torn, al it fias been fot nearly a century,
by anarchy and revolutions. There is
much in the present moral and politb
osd condition of the Gallicsn Republic
both instructive and suggestive to our
pnople, and we‘earnestly inviter their at*'
tedtfon to the new movctoicut, Bou-
ohaiVTs interrogatory to Gambctfa, and
its soltttioft, seem worthy of being writ

Nationtl Capitol for the special edifica

loaders who lifeve so long aggrandized
themselves ns propagandists of the doc.
trine of 'hate, and wrtlo yet cling with*
th% desperate energy of despair to those
positions of plaoe and power which tficy
have acquired “ by political games of
chance, immoral enterprises, deceits,
robberies, 1 ’ and which they seek to
perpetuate “ lastly by force.’ 1

Of pulpit orators Dr. Biker, of Charles

of the renowned Dr'. Kngland, whose

generation gone by.
But to what purpose will this flood of
eloquence be poured out? Is it to win
a niche for the orator in the temple of
fame or to advance the cause of God and
man ? Mr. O’Connor is aa honorable
gentleman. lie could not bo induced**
uudor any possible circumstances, ever
to stoop to anything mean or despicable,
or to oppose anything that he couscien*

from the trammels of professional and
society aristocracy, and, whilst '•the

won a valuable acquisition in the man,
and whilst we, amongst others, must en

agreeable disappointment may be in re

adopted : '

whereas extreme extortion has been

whereas they have not been permitted

they have relied on the Federal arm

refugees have horror stricken fears as

and death by the way rather than re

calculated to move pitying Heaven and
to awaken all that is sympathetic and

claims for Immediate charitable relief
are eqlially Just and iinpafative. In
these Southern States conspiracy and

The Republicans of the United States
-'cnate nominated and voted for cx-Con-
gressmau Rainey, of South Carolina, for
Secretary of tho Senate, a position to
which they knew they could not elect
any person, with a view of exhibiting
their frien dly disposition to give the ne
gro an office. Rainey, however, was
not to be satisfied with an empty honor.
Ho has been so accustomed to enjoying
the receipt of Ins living from the pubTic
crib, that he does not see how it is pos
sible for him to get along without some
public position; and as the people of
Soutn Carolina were too ungrateful, as
he views it, to return hira to Congress,
he has in his extrem ity turned to the
President for an appointment, asking for
few oppoaera of the etock law* tratti* W 0 f Third Auditor of the
Treasury, which is a very comfortable
and desirable position. But the Radi
cals have no idea of giving a good place
to a colofted man ; and, therefore, one

8acrctary of tho Treasury, offered to
give the ex-Congrcssman a minor clerk-

and since his recent discomfiture it is
said that he is very much disgusted with
