THE BiBrE IN THE SCHOOLS, AND THE BIBLE IN
THE PRocEssIoN.-Oae Of the most melancholy
dissertations that we have seen IN the way OF
political matters is that of the Holy Bible mixing
In public PROFESSIONS, and bearing the wa'ch-
word OF men. many OF whom utter the most visien'
and atrocious language, and violate openly 'ne
great precepts of the holy book, which they nave
dared TO take as the Shibboleth OF their party.


We like the Bible in schools. There is Its pro-
per place. We like the Bible in the parlor-in the
closet in every private apartment. We like the
Bible in the Church We like the Bible in every
quiet place of sober and rational thought. But, of
all thiags that Is hypocritcdl and insulting to the
majesty of high heaven, we think the casting OF
the Bible INTO the dirty pools of politics, and mix
ing OF itup with the revelres and basphemies ofsec-
tarlan aud political loaferism, is the revolving.
That is not The place for the Bible, no more than
the dirty Of politics is the place for the robes
Of him VINO ministers at the altar.


The ABOLITION CLloyE IN The DEMOCRATIC
PARTY We are very saach amused with the con-
trnlions Of the abolition clique belonging Co 'hA
democratic party, who have opposed the annexa-
non of Texas, attempted TO throw the State into
disorder on that question in the recent election,
and who are represented by the Eveniwg Post and
its coadutors. This concern ought, however, to
be properly set down as third abolition, and two
thirds "speils," so that on every occasion where
the prospect for the spos s better than abolition,
they are very willing to postpone the aboltlonlsm
untilsome more convenient opportunity, In order
that the thirds appetite for the spoil snav be fully
satisfied. They have been very busy, during the
last few days. attempting to explain the discrepancy
between the vote fer Slas Wright, and that for
Mr. Polk, in this State. They endeavor TO show
that, but tor the popularity of Mr. Wright and the
sinking Of their anti-Texas opinions for The time,
Mr.. Polk could not have got the State OF New
York, and could not have been elected President.


All this very idle now, appears by the re-
cent returns that Mr. Polk would have been elected
without the State of New York, his majority being
two to one over Mr. Clay-one OF the largest ever
given in this country, and equal to any that Gen
Jackson, the " old hickory" ever got. So "youns
hickory is not at all indebted to these good friends
of his the abolition diq~es of the democracy OF
New York, and we have no doubt that when he
gets to Washington he will properly appreciate the
conduct Of these anti Texas men in this region
