We are informed that three or four
preachers of the Methodic Episcopal Church
South came here from Texas on the lust
steam' r, probably at the invitation of Jo
Lane. They have their families with them,
and expect to nettle among ns. We pro
pose that pro-slavery men of all denomina
tions unite immediately with the M. E.
Church South. It must be a gratification
to them to be uboard of a craft destined to
a heaven where they can flog niggers.
Cornwall, of the Cumberland Presbyterian
Church, will probably seak for a front
seat, as he was sound enough on the goo
to support a resolution iu their late Presby
tery forbidding their preachers to either
rite or speak ognin.'t slavery. He alto
stated, during his remarks, that John
Xcwton, a celebrated Engliah divine, who
was engaged for years before his conversion
in the slave trade, hud dune inure good in
that eaprtrihj than he had erer done tinet
at a minister. c liave this statement
from a preacher of the same denomination.
We advise these Texas missionaries to hunt
Rro. Cornwall.' nnd see if they can't fit
out some sort of a ' dug out' for the African
trade. If they are too poor for that, they
can emigrate to the borders of Missouri,
and advertise themselves as "catchers of
runaway niggers."
