In additioii to this, we fi ii vo now on file wvtral lellers from infidel", niid'n jrreut fault with im far now and then publishing u Htruy uif froiuMJine philosopher' note-book eulojriisiiijf tlio Ii ide. Our corrwioinl;ntii tliiik wo ouirlit not to comuH iirl a book which nuudioin mich a great wronj as tniinteiiliiifr. Now o huve often wondered why ' free-thinb r' should come lo nm h a couel.tsiou. They certainly never frot it fifiin tho Hook itself, but arc entirely drpendunt ujioii pro-slavery piirsoim for their information. Now, it docs loot: a little inconsistent for nil ' inde pendent freo-t liitik.-r,' who wouldn't give un old button for audi a l'u.-son Corn wall' opinion on nny other brunch of ' theolojfy,' but who prideH himself on doin' his own ' thinking' then, hhould let such parsons do ull his ' thinking' when it eoincit lo proving the Uiblo to be a very bin bonk, and when these divines tell him " I'm Hilihi Hiinctions limn stouliii''" lie oprns his moiitli ami kwiiIIowh it down without tvpr stojiping to examine, to sec whether tho ' preaching' is correct or not. Wo huvu thought it not un improper thing, nt tli's particular juncture, lo lay by our political pen, inn sharpen up our old tli'.o logicid quill, for the double purpose of re moving a very great objection which pome ' free-thinkers' make to our publishing flut tering notices of the liible us u book of morult, to say the Icn.-t, ns ul.-o to 'slop tho mouths' of ci'.cll 1 vuiu talken and do eeivers' ns are, undi-r pretense of being 'culled nnd .sent,' trying to niuko nil the iiifidi.ls they can, by nvcrring, every where they go, Hint tho Ibblu justifies ' the jinn of nil villainies.' The proposition that wc ure di inoiislrat ing is, that property in man, or ahivery, is ablinrrcnt to the teachings of the whole. Ilible. And Ju.t liers wc iiflinii, what we n.ight have .slated before, that the Wold ' slave' i.s nover found but twice in that book, once in Jer. i: li, nnd once in I!cv. IX: lit. Iu the former piisace, " Is Tsno-1 ufervnul? i.s ho u homo-horn slave?" the word ' slavo' is not in tho original, but is incornctly supplied by tho tran.-lulurs for ' servant.' The Creek word tluulm is hrre nmlcred servant.' This word in ulwavs remlereil scrvont, iii.d never means a tlave iu the wholu book. litv. 18: 13 is thou really tho ouhj phico where 'slavu' occurs in tho Jiuok, and there very properly oc curs, ns both the original and sense pf the pc-fiigii show. "And I heard another voice from heaven, kuving, Ccm out ol her, mij people, that ye I,- uut partaken of her piiiuea. Therefore, t-hall her pl.igurs conic In one tiny, death, and mournm;.', nnd famine; nnd she shiill bo utterly burned with (ire, I'or strong is tho Lord Cod who judgeth In r.

I'cv. IS: 4. . 1 1 1:1 Here, iu tho person of the givut harlot llahvlon, we find the only slaveholder men tioned in all tho lulu that claimed abso lute property iu man. H,c dealt in the souls ami liodict of men ns ' mcrc!nunliie' and' protected shivu propel !y just us she protected oilier properly" in u r l(,n.j. one?. Nio not only did this. lint, nhicil t.iem in In r inventory of ' merchandise with " boasts, and sheep, nnd horses," ju-t as Cornwall and other Democratic parsons ulwayK insit that tho pious, harlot should hnvo done. Hut we find, by lookim; inlo ouriiivek lestaiueiit, Unit tho word don- l. iisi-d clscwlier.! for 'servuiit, is not the word used here, but ' sama,' which means a slave, Hiiro enough. Cornwall eertainlv had the scarlet-colored harlot in his eve when he told ns nl out tho great slave holders of the liible time who owned some twenty thousand head or more a piece, mill counted thi in ns no men, but ns beasts, and killed them nt pleasure a stub? of tiling which Christ mid the Apostles saw, and still left the world ns to slavery just where they found it. It uuU have been Hahv- Ion ho had in his eve. I'or wc read in Iter 18: iM, " And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that trere n.uoi upon the earth." Tho nuia-l that came down from heaven " erii-,1 ml., 1,1 ly with a strong voice, Comk oi r ok hub, UV I'KOI'I.K llllt noor I m C.irnu-ull lands up iu the pulpit, crying with a we'ak voice, " l,a into her, go into her, tin breth ren, Jar she's the true chinch, and moth, " all Prmcerah.'.'" Mr. Stephens, of Georgia, made n speech ut l ongress a few years uo to prove that n very was a liible institution. Jo I.nne sent a hnikaire of tlniM so ln. i. i... t very man iu the lountrv.

' The next .step in 'proiiss'vc Democracy' und 'growth iu grucc' was, these parsons iu;i.-t tuko the ground thut 'slavery is a Bible in stitution, and right of itself, but must be regulated by Biblo rules.' This is the ground taken by McKinney, in common with most Northern Democrats. But Mr. McKinney iu going to Texas found that progressive Democracy had got ao far ahead of lam that in teaching his views he was liable to " chastisement, which to us seeineth grievous," but which iu him has probably 'yielded the peaceable fruits of obedience.' In speaking 011 Iho ' relativo duties of matter and slave.' it seem? ho 're- Ikcted severely on the inhuman treatment SL-rvanU sometimes receive' Mr. McKin ney probably told the) ' brctheren' that the passage " Masters, give unto your servants that which is just and equal," stopped them from working them fifteen hours a day nnd feeding them on cotton seed. If he had knowu what Democratic theology wmi is, as well as some of our Oregon divines, he would have told them that such was 'too rigid an interpretation of Scripture,' that it was res.it towork niggers fifteen hours a day, an 1 Iced them on cotton seed: ns 'nee ther Christ nor tho Apostles had ever said they shouldn't,' and that by ' that which is just and equal,' we were not to understand, as 'a too rigid interpretation of Scripture' might lead us to believe, that we were to give them equally ns good as wfi had our selves, but that we must give one nigger as good ns another. That is, if wc feed one uigger on cotton seed, nnd thrash him well for not performing his daily task, 'jus tice' and christian 'equality' requires us to teat all the mggers on cotton seed, nnd give them all an equal number of lashes on the bare back. When will Northern doughfaces learn t keep up with ' progressive' Democratic theology? To SUay HrtaaoU. " K...
