The American Baptists possess a rich inheri- tance in the name and fame of Roger Wil- liams. Rather let us say, this inheritanos en- riches our whole country, and the world; for in establishing the principle of Religious Tol- eration, Roger Williams became the benefac- torof hisrace. The American historian has done him justice. Behold the picture of this brave and noble leador, as drawn by the glo +- ing pencil of Bancroft: . “In 1631 he was but little more than thirty years of age; but his mind had already ma tured a doctrine which secures him an immor- tality of fame, as its application has given re- ales peace to the American world. He was a Puritan, and a fugitive from Eaglish perse- cution; but this wroug had not clouded his ac- curate understanding; in the capacious recesses of his mind he had revolved the nature of in- tolerance, and he, and he alone, bad arrived at the great principle which is its sole effectual remedy. He announced his diseovery under the simple proposition of the sanetity of con- science. The civil magistrate should resirain crime, but never control opinion; should pun- ish guilt, but should never violate the freedom of the soul. The doctrine contained withia itself an entire reformation of theological juris- prudence: it would blot from the statate-book the felony of non-conformity; would quonch the fires that presecution had kept so long burning; would seal every law compelling attendance on public worship, would abolisn tithes and forced constributions to the mains tenanee of religion; would give an equal pro tection to every form of religious -faith; and never suffer the authority of the civil govern: ment to be enlisted against the Mosque of the Musselman or the altar of the fire worshipper. against the Jewish synagogue or Koman cuth- edral. * * * * “Bat the principles of Roger Williams led him into perpetual collision with the clergy and government of Massachusetts It had ever been their custom to respect the church of England, and in the mother country they frequented its services without seruple; yet its principles and its administration were harshly exclusive. Williams would hold no communion with intolerance ; ‘fur, said he, ‘the doctrine of persecution, for cause of con- science is u.ost evidently and Iamentably con- trary to the dectrine of Christ Jesus. “But tho controversy finally turned on the question of the rights and duty of magis. rates to guard the minds of the people against cor- Tuption, and to punish what would seem to them error and heresy. Magistrates, Williams protested, are but the agents of the people, or lls trustees, on whom no spiritual power in matters of worship can ever be conferred; since conscience belongs to the individual, and is not the property of the body politic ; and with admirable dialects clothing the great truth in its boidest and most generai forms, he asserted that - the civil magistrate, may not intermeddle even to stop achurch from apos tacy and heresy; that this power extends only to the bodies end goods and outward es- tates of men.” With corresponding distinet- ness, he foresaw the influence of his principles on society. ‘The removal of the yoke of soui- oppression,’ to use the words in which at 2 later day, he confirmed bis early view. ‘as it EVENING to the enslaved nations, so it is of binding force to engage the whole and every interesi and conscience to preserve the comuon liberty and peace.’’’ * * * * a When summoned to appear before the gen- eral court, he avowed nis convictions in he resence of the representatives of the State maintained the rocky strength of his grounds.” and declared himseli - ready to be bound and banished, and even io die in New England.’ raiher than renounce the opinions which had dawned upon hismind in the clearness of light. At a time when Germany was the battle-field for all Europe in the implacable wars of reli- gion; when even Holland was bleeding with the anger of vengetul factions; when France was stili to go through the fearful struggle with bigotry; when England was grasping under tue despotism of intolerance, aluiosi halt a century before William Penn became an American proprietary, and two years be- fore Descar‘es founded modern philusophy on the method of free reflection, Roger Williams asserted the great doctrine of intellectual lib- erty. It pecame his glory to found a State on that principle, and to staip himself upon the ins\itutions in characters so deep that the im- preas has remained to the present day, aud can never be erased without ihe total destrue- tion of the work. ‘Ihe principles which he sustained amidst the bickerings of a col- | parish, nex: asserted in the general ourt of Massachusetts, and then introdecei into the wilds on Narragansett bay, he soon found occasion to publish to the world, and to defend as the basis of the religious freedom of mankind; go that, borrowing the rhetoric em- ployed by his antagonist in derision, we may compare him to the lark, the pleasant bird of the peaceful summer, that, ‘ affecting to soar aloft, springs upward f, the ground, takes his rise from pale oe) and at last, sur- mounting the highest 8, utters his clear cnrols through the skies of morning. He was the first persun in modern Christendom tu as- sert in its plenitude the doctrine of the liberty of conscience, the equality of opinions before law, and in in its defence he was the harbin- ger of Milton, the precursor and the superior ot Jeremy Taylor.” * - * * * {After being expelled from Massachusetts, Roger Williams went out to seek a home for himself :| “It was in June that the lawgiver of Rhode Island with five companions, embarked on the stream; a frail Indian canoe contained the founder of an independent State and its earliest citizens. ‘Tradition has marked the spring near which they landed ; it is the par- ent spot, the first inhabited nook of Rhode Isiand. To express his unbroken confidence in the mercies of Ged, Williams called the luce Proviveck. ‘J desired, said he, ¢ it might be for a shelter for persons distressed for conscience.’ ”? The Isms of the Day. The following, taken from the Boston Chron- icle, shews up an tsm which is just about as good as others that are more prosperous, and what take in more rogues and fools : Srrnituat Discourse oN Marriage.—Mr. John Orvis, of the Fountain House and Spirit- ualists’ Home, preached yesterday afternoon at the Melodeon, on Spiritualism, and on the subject of Marriage. The topic being one somewhat interesting to most people, a large audience was in attendance, both of believers in the doctrine and those curious to know their views. ‘Ihe discourse, in part, was somewhat unintelligible to unspiritalized hearers, but much of the language was eloquent and ex- tremely well delivered. In relation to the subject, the speaker proceeded to state that none of the present human institutions were repugnant to the angels in Heaven. or more wondrously imperfect in the sight of common sense, than the institution of marriage. As av present conducted. everything was world!y, and hence everything was wrong. Man, in the mundane should be wedded to man in the supernul sphere before twain humanity could properly become one. The speaker here di- gressed a little to show that the prevalence of slavery and war, the universal prevalence of duplicity in trade, and the degradation to which we compel women to submit, prove us to be nothing but a race of pagans Every- thing was wrong, und among the complicated evil, none stood out go full of bitterness and falsity as that called marriage relation.

Ss —— | cor joined in eternal truth no marriage could be righly celebrated, and none other would prove aught but miserable. As there can be, continued the preacher, but one propor mer- Tiage, 80 there can only be one mariage on the earth. Man and woman drawn togothor by the moral interior of their natures, and driven onwards from the bosom of the Father to the eternities, shall be united to the eter- nities and never severed Marriage, not thus consammated, will exist but for a time, but when eternity breaks upon our race, every man and every woman sBall see his own, aud hor own to be united forever. As to the doctrine of Free Love, he declared his adbesion to it; but it was no such thing as its maligners and treducers had called it,—it was not licentiousness, it was pot sensuality, that deserved the name, but tree love was like the “outgushing of water that bubbles from out the fountaia to Kiss the merning air’ —that gives itself to its own in holy marriage, frev only from the tiem of manneriam, and from care of the thoughts and opinions of an unrighteous suciety. These, the speaker stated, were bis views as a spiritualist, and he affirmed that be knew of the truth of what hespoke. The other ser- vices of the oocasion eonsisted in singing ‘rom @ spiritual collection of bymms, and the au dience throughout appeared interested, if not edified. iue preacher contiawed bis dismourse in the evening, enlarging om the affection idea, but expressing a fear that the world is not ready for the full consummation of the doctrine. Ag humanity, however, isan eminently progres- sive institution, he hed ardent hopes of the eventual realization ef bis blissful ure. Mr. Orvis will leave the city to-day to en- “nage acompetent corpsof mediums, with whom he will hold a series of public meetings at the ‘Home.’ What Can be dene by Strong Hinting. Mrs. Hogan avd her husband were neither of them over-fond of work. They were per- fectly willing to live upon the generosity of their neighbors, which ey were by no means backward in soliciting. One day Mrs. Hogan dropped into Mrs, Farn- ham’s, her next door neighbor, just as the family were sitting down to supper. Of course she was invited to supper. Your tea’s very good,”’ she said; “I wish Mr. Hogan was here. He's very fond of tea, but we're very poor and can’t afferd to get it #0 expensive.”’ This hint wa- considered rather a strong ene, so Mrs. Farnham hended Mrs. Hogan, just as she was going, a pound pareel. ~Thank you,” said Mrs. Hogan; I’m glad to get tea, butitaint of much use without the milk" A quart of milk was also consigned to her charge. »Weli, says she, ‘now if we hed some sugar, we should be provided * Mrs. Farnham procured a pound and gave it to ber “Now,” said Mrs. Hogan, we shall stand a chance to havea good cut of tea. Tuere’s nothing relished with tea like apple pie, as Mr. Hogan often says.” This bint was strong enough to bring out the article desired “After all.” said Mrs Hogan, as she took tthe pie in her heads, “pie aint pie, unless a ly has cheese to eat withit. Ifthere’sany- thing I love, it’s cheese.”’ {t was imporsible to resistsuch an appeal as this Anample slice having been pi. ced in ¢ possession, she paused a moment as if oor- cring whether there was not ecmething else emightcallfor. Failing to think of any- thing, she was about te move off, when a thought struck her “These things are rather heavy, and I sint so etrong asLused tobe I don’t know as I hall be able to get home.” Mrs. Farnham volunteered tocend her sun, Jub, to carry a part of the articles—an offor which Mrs. Hogan accepted without the least hesitation, When John had landed his load, Hogan hinted that she had got sowe od che would like to beve aplit, Sue John didn’t believe in hinte, and left without .ak- ing it a a A GooD WAY To FIGHT TgB IxpiaAms.—The folowing isan extract from recent intelligence f.om Utah, to the date of August 30 : ihe crops in [ron county look weil, and the iron works are advascing finely, and health was good.
