The Cincinnati Enquirer Snowing its Colors. The following, with much more of the same sort, is from the Cincinnati Enqui rer of Sunday, the 26th of April: The Church is now embarked in poli tics. The religious scepter has departed from the Ceristian Israel, and it has taken on the political. To be a "Christian " seems equivalent to being a rampant and bigoted partisan. The Christian minister is a stump-speaker in a house with a steeple. The bitterest party har angues come from the pulpit, and senti ments that might put barbarians to shame are delivered in what purports to be ser mons. anH blasphemously in the name of a holy and mrriful GoJ. This i-xtract shows what no one who has carefully watched passing events can have faih d to see, that Northern sym pathizers with treason are fast becom ntiDj opt-n infidels. The Chriidian Churches, in the loyal States, the Christian press, the Christian ministry, the Sunday schools, and the puMic schools are almost unanimously loyal. Hence all these come in for their share of hatred from such papers as th. Cincinnati --E-rtintrtrr.--Tip- structions are steadfastly opposed to the schemes of Jeff. Davis to break up the Government of the United States. So the Enquirer denounces them. We are rlad that that sheet is at length throwing off the mask and appearing in its true colors as an enemy to religion and to the common school system. We have known, from the beginning of the present strjggle, that the virtue and intelligence or the country was nearly all'on one side. The Churches of the country and the schoolls of the country must pe destroyed before the schemes of sncessionists can succeed. Heme the Enquirer says: "We have been for some time aware that the machinery of party was at work in our conmon schools. The schools are, in ready every; instance, under the con trol of members of the Republican party. The teachers are mostly Repub licans or abolitionists, and generally fan- ' aucs By the machenry of party the Enqui rer means influence for the Union. In Dayton, where there is a larger secession element than usual in the public schools, numbers of children have been expelled because they wore on their clothing the emblems of our nationality, such as buttons with the American eagle, flag pins with the stars and stripes, and red, white and blue rosettes. These, by the satellites of Jeff. Davi's, partisan em blems, and generally in public schools their is not treason enough to expel the pupils for showing there zeal for the cause of their country in this way. The Eoquirer says: 44The time is not far distant when it will be obvious that the people of this country must rise in their strength and nut down this vast and rrpidly-growing array of party machinery, or be put down bv it. It will come to be understood that schools and bjate it even more aanger eous to popular freedom than Chuich and State. In the South, where the rebellion has had free course, they have not been tro ubled with this hated commen school sys tem. .If the system can be destroyed at the North, there is a good prospect that the Enauirer's. proiect of leaving New England out in the cold, and joining the West to the Confederacy, can succeed. People can be duped by the enemies of the country in proportion to their ignorance- The rebellion could never have been successful, in the South, had the blessings of general education prevailed there as here. The course of the Enquirer and kin dred papers is rapidly separating the vile from the good in what was the old Dem ocratic party. As soon as a man de clares unconditionally for the Union these sheets denounce him as an aboli tionist, following the advice of their Southern lords. In this way parties are rapidly ranging themselves into their two appropriate classes, of friends and e&emies ot the Government, uenerai B-side's order Number 35 has so far operated on tbe ft-ars of Northern rai - nrs that they '.'are not p nly utter L , c.i ... j ThP.r iliir tn-siifiri as 'Lev U-ed to do. lueir iiJa j , only cour.- -e now is to lock around an1 . h lLQSl powerfuU support of occ r free institutions, and cVwhatthey cm to weaken this support. Tney jude rightly that Christian morals and Chris tian education are the most powerful auxiliaries in a Governtr.ent whose motto is-Liberty and Union." So..nnv. they turn their guns against the Chrtitian Church and the public retools Verily these men ar' making a rec ord for themselves, which ihtir chi' iren will wish most betterly to biot lorever from the pages of history. Cincinnati Ghrhtian Advocate. Terrible Tragedy In OMo. On the 26th ultimo a terrible tragedy occured a few miles from Toledo. C)hio, resulting in the death .of Mrs. Sarah Brown, wife of Amos Brown, their two daughters, five and eight years of age, and Alonzo Brown, the murderer. Mr. Amos Brown, who had been absent from home some two hours, retjrned and was met at the door by i.i brother, who had a rifle in his hand cocked. The murderer then informed his brother thatFhe had "killed his wife and twa daughters, and intended to kill him &ho. On this Alonzo drew up his rifle and snapped it at his brother, and soon after snapped it again, when he retired to another part 01 the house, and, talcing a dose of strichnine, was in a few minutes a corpse. . Mrs. Brown was stabbed four times in the brest, Ker fore finger was nearly cut off. and there were injuries upon her head, the result of blows or cuts with the knife. The youngest child was cut on the brest. The oldest had a gash across the breast six inches in length. Mrs. Brown is said to have been an estimable lady, espec ially well regarded for her kindness of heart and attention to the sick. She was about forty years of age. Mr. Amos Brown, her husband, had'been in the army, from which he returned adont three months since. Alonzo Brown had been a reident of the vicinity about fifteen years. He was a man of bad character, and had been released but a short time from the State prison at Jaokson, Mich igan, where he had served out a term for horse-stealing. He came to rside with his brother aboir he time of the re turn of the latter frcm th- army. Mr. Amo:' Brown is a farmer and highly re spected by his neighbors. He says he had no difficulty with his brother, and is not aware of any cause which could have prompted him to the commission of the most terrible deed. The murderer, how ever, is said to have declared that he had his revenue. Irish I The warm heartedness of the Irish especially on the arrival of imigrant ships from across the Atlantic. The Philadel phia Gazette noticing the arrival at that port on Tuesday of the ship Tonawanda. from Liverpool, with 4-11 passengers, principally Irish imigrants, notes the fol lowing affecting scenes: Upon the dock there must have been several hundred people, friends and rela tives of those now for the first time touch ing American soil. To describe what followed passes our powers. In the crowd wore servant girls by the dozen, who by their scanty earnings, had saved the mo ney by which was paid the passage of no inconsiderable number of those who now descended from the decks of the Tona wanda to the dust of Walnut street dock. Among those whom he saw in the crowd, was a deaf and dumb man. He had come to meet a widowed sister with several children. He waited with feelings under control, until he saw the woman corning over the ship's side, with a good nalured fellow-passenger helping the children af ter her. He made a rush at her, took her in his arms, mumbled inarticulate sounds, and then gave expression to hi? feelings by lying on his back and kicking upward in very joy. He sprang up in a moment or two and went to the children. The youngest one he stood ou its head against a wharf post, and was about to toss another into the air, in the exhuber- ance of his iov. when an officer restored him to his wife by tearing off part of his coat collar. There was a girl there who had brought out from TiDDerarv an old mother. At 1 the joy of seeing her the daughter faint ed, aud was kindly carried to the Ridge way House for restoration. Excessive joy afiected her as the opposite extreme excessive grief. Her transport had al most proved to be productive of serious consequences. People who dishonor the fourth com mandtuent should witness the landing from an imigrant ship of a concourse of the Irish peasantry. If they knew the manner in which most of the passages of such people are paid by the slowly ac cumulated savings of laborers, male and female they would perhaps learn a les son not always to be learned in the high er walks of life.

During the next two or three months the term of service of many of the sol diers now in the field will expire. This will leave many skeleton regiment, as the men in the several regiments have been enlisted at different periods, there being in some case over a year's differ ence in their time. These skeleton regi ments will no doubt be consolidated as provision has been made for this in the act for enrolling and calling out the notional forces. The following are the rules to be observed in consolidating the regiments: Infantry. Each jegiment will be con solidated into five or less numberof comp anies, and ihe celonel. major, and one assitant surgeok shall be mustered out. Cavalry. Each regiment will be con solidated into six or less number of comp anies, and the colonel, two majors, and one assistant surgeon mustered out. Artilltry. Each regiment will be consolidated into six or less number of batteries, ond the colonel, two majors, and one assistant surgeon mustered out. Companies and batteries, lormed by con, solidation, will be of maximum ttrength and will be organized as now directed by law and regulation. The fifteen letters of the alphabet will be used to designate companies. All compnny officers commissioned and non-comrnissioned, rendered super numerary will be mustered out of service at the date of consolidation. All other officers and non-commissioned officers will be retained. Officers to be retained will be selected by division and corps conunhnders, nnder the instructions of the commanding general of the army or department, from among the mostefficien officers of the respective regiments. After the consolidation it is directed that the reduced proportion of officers will be maintained, and no appointments to vacancies will be made except upon notification from the ad utant general of the army. To this end commanders of armies and department will report week ly to the adjutant general all vac-mcies to do filled. Said reports will be separata for each State and must embrace name, rank, and regiment of the party crerting the vacancy, with the date and cause thereof. The men raised by conscription will. no doubt, be placed in regiments by themselves, while the old veterans in the field will be massed together. Artificial Butter. We have some hesitation ih publising the following information, lest some enterprising Yanke e takes it into his "oT oti tne sumeci. oumc ui i-unn i - . 77 v i- ,i.k i,nirur the sold in this market at the preent ti.ne would rppear to have gone through some such process as described beiow. . A writer in a London periodical says: Cream is very delicious oood, yet it is only the fatty substance of the cow with a peculiar flavor superadded. If our chemists can take the whole tat ot tne cow, after slaughter, and add to it an art ificial .flavor, and thus convert it into an artificial cream, it will surely be a great gain. There is little doubt that a large amount of London bntter is manufactur ed artificaliy. but the ocjection is, that it is a very bad and unpleasant imitation of natural bufter The present writer was riding behind an engine on a railway, a short time back, when there stole on him a strong odor of red herring. "Why, guard, is the driver cooking his breakfast at the fire-box door?" No, sir ; that is where it comes from," pointing to a huge factory on the left of the road. -what are thep doing there ?" "Melting down iat." 'For the candle-makers ?" "No, sir; for Dutch butter." "What fat is it?" "Oh, they pretend it's all flares ;' kind but they put in old greasof any old railway greas and tone tat "But why for Dutch butter ?" "Because they can't make it into but here, as Dr. Letheby and Dr. Hassall would be 'down' upon thorn. So they send the fat over to Holland ready melt ed, and make it into butter there, and send it back here, when nobody can say anything against iL But. sir, I am tolJ They use arsenic in purifying that fat and it they don't get it all out before they make butter of it, all the worse for the poor who eat it." If the English manufactures produce edible and nourishing fat from waste and other materials, and Dutch chemists so flavor it so that it tastes like butter, and the effect on digestion is the same, there is no apparent harm in the process.
