Wafsbetveen Pagans have grown very rare. They ïave left the Devil's great work to nominal Christians, who are doing it bettër tö nis satisfaction. The ualional Chrislianity of the three foremost "defé'nders of the f&iih" is being" prescnted to the hea thens by diagrams and other illustrationa done in blood and engraven whh the bayonet. Alost Christian Britain has aö India; France nn Alg'eria; yonng evangelicai America, Mexico and ihe land of tho Seminóles. France has ofTered up lier Te Dcuvis to the God of Battlss for the fire-brandsthat suffocated the helpless Arabs in the cave of Dahra. England has offered her mitered thanksgiving to tho Author of bnttles for the "glorious victory" vouchsafed on thè' banks of tho Sullej. Americ3, aröüaïngfrom trophies r&'iued by the aid of her blood-hound allies in Florida, may have a war-wboop of gratitude to the Almighty for reddehing llic Rio Grande with Jíexican bíood áhd "revelling in the Halls of Montezuraa." The terrible butcheries ia Ihdia cannot be iniputed to Romanism proper; neithef those that may be perpetraied under tho American eagle in Mexico; and it is doulnful if the affair of Dahra would not have come off, if the Protestant Rèligidfl had been the naiional creed of France. - Here then is a soberer matter of reflection for the Christian AHio'nce ih'án tho infiuence of Papacy. So long as the re ligion they cali Protestent can be tracked around the globe by ita foot-prints of fira and blood, let them rest assured that nei ther Papaey nor Paeanism can iniuro it
