[snd sentinaenls at war with the institution

./ That latter o'suse, we take it, makes, a
.pretty clean sweep of&H Christian denotn
laations known jo the history of the Church
Ithsologieal dictionaries a* deciptaa of
^Christ.
"The sentrments enunciated
and the Aposilea were at war with the
institution of slavery, and the progress
L* developme.it of the ideas of Christian
ity eventually aeoured the entire abolition
•f the institution throughout Europe,
.where it prevailed universal/ at the time
of the^tntraduction of Christianity.
The' Church of Rome, in one of her
Grsnd Councils, six hundred years ago,
denounced the buying and aeliing of hu
man beingfs as n*farium negotium, a nefa
rious buf-iness, snd every Protestant de
nomination in the world, except the Meth
odist Church South, so far as we know,
has openly, again and again declared that
the "institution" is a violation of the laws
of .God and the rights of man.

The greut matter of chief importance
Ad universal interest in our community
at the present time, is the progress making
to obtaining subscriptions to the stock of
our Railroads.
A meeting, of a number of our citizens,
was had on Thursday evening, for con
sultation in reference to the Keokuk and
Fort Des Moines Road, which was ad
dreased by some of the officers of the
Company, the Chief Engineer, Mr. Eaton,
and others of our citizens, who spoke en
couragingly of the prospects ahead. A
very liberal spirit was manifeste in the
expression of a disposition to subscribe to
the Stock of the Company, and wc learn

last will encourage aU who are interested
