MR. BArtnr~:rt.—As you have lronored

me with an attack in the columns of your
-paper on Saturday, for a sermon deliver-

ed on the day of the late Public Fast, wlr.
you had neither seen nor heard; and as
you seem anxious that I should “ place
the‘ democratic presses on the right,” l
have to request that, along with this, you
will publish the following extract front the
sermon referred to, which contains, ver-
batim, all that was said on tlratoccasion in
regard to the public press. ‘

By this extract it will be seen that, un-
less “the democratic presses" “have uni-
ted their power against every benevolent
1novemt:n.t of the age .'—unle.ss they have
vilzfiecl the c_~_;‘/'ort to suppress and annihi-
late intcmpcrance .' the distrilmliort of re-
ligious tracts ; the efforts to suppress the
mutation of the Saboat/r of the L.or¢l,nnd
the circulation of the Bible, as the meas-
ure oj hypocritical men designing to rob
the people of their political rig/its and
liberty ;" unless those presses have char-

" god “the free prerlch-tug of the gospel for
successive days, and the revivals of roll-

gion consequent upon it, and the conver-
sions to Jesus Christ produced by the Ho-

ly Ghost sent tlownfrom Heaven, to the ~

account of political chicancry, and Jesu-
itical irnposture .-”-unless "it has been
the grand object” of those presses, so for
as this subject is concerned, “to iderrtify
thcsc movements of bentvolence with the

. political conflicts of the day, and thus by

Ul7l1tC7l(l0, and dar/c surnzisings, and open

iu'cclarat2'on, to carry over against those

nrovcnzcnts the z'ntcr_cst, and rcc/.‘lcssncss,
and v.-rulencc ofpor'z'tical hostility :" noth-
ing that 1 have said has any application to
these presses.

And by the following extract, it will, I
trust also be seen, that whatever presses
have adopted this course, have employed
influence against righteousness, for which
the Holy One may now be desolating the
land ; and that the caution to such profes-
sors of religion as patronise such “vehicles
of ungodlrncss,” was neither unnecessary,

-nor ill timed.

l have tr ‘right to the presumption, that
you will not even pretend, that it was any
part of my object in the sermon referred
to, “to enumerate the reasons why every
body except _those who go to (his)—my—

. meeting, should be chastised” as you have

sold, in your firs: assertion. V
'1 he irrsiuuation which publicly irnpieaclb

' es my integrity, 1 leave to be enjoyed by

the mind base enough to conceive it.
C. A. BOARDMAN.
New Haven, July 26, 1832, '

The sermon was founded on Lamenta-

lions 1lI:_4O ; and the following is the
EXTRACT.

“4, Another way which maybe con-
nected with judgements from on high, has
been,to cherish, and deepen, and extend
a spz'~r2't ojjealousy and /rostility to mean:
and measures to convert and sanctrfy men.

“It is a matter ofgratitude that this sin
in at least its tangible form, lies principal-
ly out of the church. -Would that we
could say wholly ! An effort has been
making for many years, to call out into
unitedand persevering action the benevo-
lence oftlie friends of God, and man, for
the purpose of diminishing the woes, and
elevating the character , and sanctifying
the hearts of men, and of pushing the con-
version of the world, as the great and
grand enterprise which Jesus Christ ha!
casrupori the hands of his people. _ For
this purpose, associations have been form-
ed to check the progress of the mast des-
tructive vlces, and most daring violations
of the law of God :-—to fill the land with
divine truth in various forms, and its turn-
isters ; to educate the children oftlns gen-
eration for God ; and to send forth, wide
over the world, the heralds of the salva-
tion of God. That all these are good o_b-
jects—-good only, no man pretends to dis-
pute. That, in proportion as they pro se-
cured, the power of benevolence IS aug-
menled, and Christ glorified ls cqually
manifest». But, these measures have all
been opposed, and great pains taken to
extend and deepen the hostility to them.
So far as the prosecution of these objects
has required pecuniary aid, and the appeal
has been made to public charity, the ob-
’ects have been assailed by men in the
Church and out of it, as an extended
scheme of fraud or svrindling; and_ the
men employed in conducting them virtu-
ally, and in some instances clamorously,
branded as hypocrites. Some Churelresin
our country, and someassociatrons-of mur-
isters have not hesitated to lendtlrerr in-
fluence to-check and prostrate these efforts
ofhcaevolenoe. The grand object has
been, ‘.0, identify these movements wltlr
the political conflicts of the day, and thus
bv innuendo, and dark surmisings, and o-

 declaratioa to carry over against those
moyemgznts, the interest, and reckless viru-
lg);_c._o of political hostility. The [W888 has

lent itsaid in this work of opposition, and
has wielded its power-against every 6-
rrevolent movement of the age; and pro-
fossirrg clrristiarrs are found to patronise

‘ public papers which thus attack the cause

of Jesus Christ in sonre of its most vital
interests. The effort to suppress and n-
uihilate irrtcmperance’; the dislributir-n
of religious tracts—-the efforts to suppress
the violation oftlre Sabbath eflhe Loril--~
the circulation of the Bible, have all been
vilified as the measures of lrypoctilicai
men, designed to rob the people of their
political rights and liberties : while even
the preaching of the Gospe'l;—',the free
preaching oftlre gospel of Jdsiis Christ,
for successive days, and the revivals of
religion consequent upon it--tlre conver-
sions to Christ produced by the Holy
Ghost, sent down from heaven, have been
charged to the account of political chican-
ery and Jcsuitical imposturc; and pro-
fessing clrristians are found, who patronise
the vehicles of this ungorllirress, & spread
them before their childr‘cu as if uncon-
scious‘ that it may work tlrcir eternal Ull-
doing and srnilo complacently at the sin.

“ "l he question is, does this conduct
provoke the vengeance of the Most High .7‘
Go look on ancient Egypt, who in the
pride of her power and oppression, vilified
the people of God as idlers; for asking
permission to woraslrip '_(_lod, and refused
ll’lCll_‘ request, and britrgi_\or_r_t' answer from
the bottom of the sea, in iwlriclr her king
and her glory per lsllt.‘(l. Go look at the
nations of Carmen, who refused to grant
Gud’s people permission to execute his
high comlnand,ar’rd in their deptnpttlatcd
citit-s,'nnd tvasled lands, read the record
of God’s avenging jrrstice on cflirrts to ar-
rest the cause of 'trrr lr and riglrtcnusrress
and salvation. Look again, at the exhi-
bition.of'clrarnc'er which lsraol made be-
fore the storm ofdivirre indigrratiorr burst
upon their nation, when they said to the
scers, “see rrol, and to the proplrets propit-
esy hot, rrnto us right things; speak unto
us smoozlr things, prophecy dcct-its.”--—-
Loek over the cities and countries which
opposed, and drank the blood ufApostles,
and did not their hostility take hold on
God’s retribution? Look on Erxglautl,
when to minister to the depravity of her
strlrjects, and tojuslify the corruption 01'
her court, she converted the Sabbath uftlre
Lord into a day of sports, and forbade the
assembling of her most devout and loyal
subjects for purposes of devotion by pub-
lic authority, and iuthe groans and flame.-
of her capital, desolated with the plague
and burnt with frrc, read the provocation
which God feels, when power is ernplnyeti
to check the atlvarrrt-nrerrt of his salvation
in the world. Go then and look on l"r':.rrce,
when in the madness oflrerprllitical plrr‘cu-
zy, she blotted llltlsarlrbatll from the list
of days, and clesecrated her sauctuarie.~r,
and strucltoffrlre heads of the nrirzlsters
of religion, and dishonored the l}‘.b|(-, and
proclaimed from the grave yard “ there
is no God, and death is an eternal sleep,"
and fell down and worslrippetl a tlebased
female to mock and defy ’Ilre God of Is-
rael,—antl in her blood and groans, take
your answer to the qtrestion, will God in-
deed avenge injrrdgenrent resistance to his
gospel, and hostility to man’: salvation.-—
Ah, will God be silent at this way 5"’

DEFICIENCIES OF l’.\RIt‘.N'.I'S

A correspondent ‘communicates to us,
in strhstance the following ' specimen’ of
family.governmont. Making an excursion
into some part of the country, among the
farrrring population, he stopped at amon-
sion where a woman was btrsily occtrpied
in housewifery,é with her littloisirn near
her at play. John wasa hopeful lad; and
his ruotlrcr was tr professor or religion ; but
of what denomination is not rnentir ncd.-
The latter saw at a little distance a chick-
en in mischief, and told John to drive it
out. John wastoo busy to obey. “John
drive that chicken away," said the mother,
John paid no attention ; and soon the
chicken got dceprr into mi'clrief.' The
cornmand was repeated in a loader tone ;
blll l‘lC scarcely noticed lris'mother’s.voice.
Tire mischiefwent on at a greater rate,
which at length threw, the mother into a
passion, and led-lrer to cry out vehement-
ly to her son ; but all to no effect. Step-
ping up to him, and raising her voice to a
still higher pitch, slarnping up"o't'r the floor,
she vocift-rated. " John a’nt you going
to drive that clricken ‘away P or have I to
flog youfirst, you little rascal :9” John
felt himself rather imposed upon, raised
his head a little, and with a nrirrgled look
‘of impudence and defiance, swore roundly
that he would not gtf

Who could hear such words front tr
child, says the writer, trnd not shudder "r
The language of profaneness was evident-
ly familiar to him ; wlrtle yethis mother
was a professed disciple ol the Lord Jesus
Christ. Our correspondent tlrnuglrt this
no place to visit, and soon left the house.
And now, iftlro same mntlrer should chance
to read this statement in the newspaper,
he would be gratified.

Now, hating the circumstance of pro-
faneness, how does this statmrrent differ
from what is often witnessed at the pre-
setrt'day, in many families that are pro-
fessedly Chr'i:.lians? Immediate, implicit,
uniform and cheerful obedience, we fear,
can be seldom found, even in families that
are presumed to be well governed. The
subject deserves greater attention, than
perhaps it has ever received ; and the
simple fact, that this kind of obedience is
just what our heavenly Father requires at
his children, is not among the league give
it importance.--E(Iuca’t€on Reporter.

From the Boston llftulicul Intotligcrrcer.

As fruits become plenty, children be--
come victims of derreases of the bowels ;
but not so frequently in consequence or

d

using it too liberally, as from being per-

when in a crude state ; ripe fruit seldom
injures any body ;:._*'5‘ "I as made for man;
and a kind Provi ‘ ‘e lrasbestowed it
upon us at that peculiarseason, when, in
fact, it is not only necessary, but when it
is in its greatest perfection ; and those who
use it freely, ifcnly ripened well, will gen-
erally enjoy the best health. Eastern na-
tions have no such erroneous notions about
fruit, as have crept into the pericraniunrs
of our mothers and nurses ; nor is there
any evidence of its injurious effects on the
health ofindividuals of any grade, in the
West Indies, where the inhabitants could
not subsist without it.

Apples, pears, peaches, melons, &.c,
should be served up on the table, every
day, while they are good, and whenever,
in our climate, they are no longer suita-
ble,arrd would prove detrimental to‘ health,
by interrupting the ordinary functions of
the system, nature invariably admenislros
us of the danger, not,only~_hy lessening the
abundance, but also by',tlrg.d_iseases which
are resulting from a continued use of them
at ln'rpl0pc'l' times. People are governed
in this enlightened age, by art and arbi-
trary customs, rather than by that sage
plrilr-sophy which results from ‘rcfason and
expofierrcc. _ It is. ridiculous as well as
provoking, in the estimation ofthosc phy-
sicians who have a comprelrcusivc view
oftlre structure, habits, and constitution of
original beings, and who have exzrrnirred
the maclrincry of man witha microscopic
eye, and studied. the diseases to which
each portion of his beautiful and compli-
cated fabric is liable, to hear those grave
observations on ails and food, which have
originated’ in ignorance, and which have
been propagated front geucratiorr to gen-
eration, without truth and without judge-
urenl. . V
Acid drinks and acid fruits, the.-present.
and the ensuing months, are the "real saun-
trvos of health, and no prejudice should
prevent their use. 'I'lrese should not be
denied to’ children, when their appetite
craves and their nature rt quire that which
uaturcordairred for their consumption.—--
Eat or be calm is one of the first laws of
animal life ; eat those things which were
designed for food, but be temperate ; and
health will be promoted, strongtl,r will be
accumulatetl, and a long and courfortable
life may reasonably be arrtitipalctl.

I’ulrrronary consumption, that insidious
disease, which is continually sweeping
from existence the fairest flowers of earth,
those interesting objects of our care, those
solzrces ofnrerr in weal and wo—women—
and often in the very morning of their days,
when youth and beauty lreiglr on all their
innate rlrarm:-3, has often had an origin in
St'lIl(.' false nranagenrcrrt in diet. Women
of delicate constitutions should habituate
rlrernselves to a variety of ediblcs; they
should try to live on almost every tlrirrg
which has a place in cookery and suits
their slonraclr ; and its tone, lrowever deli-
cate, will soon acquire new and vig7rrous
powers. Pain in the side, llro invariable
concomitant of some irregularities the
p-imce v3t:.c,will oftcrrer yield to agenerous
and nutritious mode of living, than to be-
luses and powders. 'l‘o be well, eat well,
and almost anything which relishes the
best ; but still remember temperance.

 
 
 

 

USE OF SULPIIUR IN CHOLERA.

At Three Rivers and one or two other pla-
ces in Canada, Sulphur has been used in va-
rious forms as a preventive and cure of chole-
ra. The Boston Gazette irrquires—"'Under-
the strppositiorr that the clrelera is contagious,
may not sulplruric fumigations be useful ?—
Take the example of these diseases generally
admitted to be admitted to be contagious~tlre
small pox, tlregitclr and the plagtre. , The of-
fc’ct of sulplrurous ftrmigat:on in désttiryirrg
the contagion "of small pox is universally
known; indeed it is doubtful whether. any
other mode is sulhcient. The same observa-
tion may be applied to the plague. Letter:
or other ‘articles supposed to be infected by a
touch or persons with the plague, are purified
by the smoke ofsulphur-_—antl the itch can on-
lylbeietfectually cured by that agent. _ 'l'lre
Clrolera may lrereafter be proved to be in this
class of rrraladies—-under such at supposition,
is it trnrensonable to suppose that sulphur in
some form or mode of use, may prove benefi-
cial ? Under the presumption that the chol-
era isfdissemirratesi by the atmosphere--and it
is a favorite theory Wllll some that it is spread
by animalculae existing in the air we breathe,
nray not the fumes ofsulplrur destroy them as
in other cases of iuscct lire ?

all of which he offers for sale on the most rea-
sonable terms. , His stock of goods is entire-
ly fresh.,_and consists of the latest importa-
tions and most approved and fashionable pat-

terns. _ ' A ‘ " '
Experience has long since convinced him,
that a business conducted wholly on the cash
principle may prove mutually advantageous
both to the seller and the pul'chascr,—-as by
confining sales entirely for,ca.9h, the seller a-
voids all risk, and insures a speedy return of
capital, and is thus enabled to supply his cus-
tomers at a much smaller advance than if he
were to sell on credit. The subscriber has
tlrerefore concluded to pursue this course;
and he trusts the public after examining his
goods and prices, will approve of the measure.
Having been for years engaged in the same
business, he flatters himself that his experi-
‘ence has enabled him to succeed not only in
fur'nishirrg" his store with goods of the best

and he respectfully invites an examination of
his stock and terms. CHARLES PEG K.
