CONVOCATION OF THE EPISCOPAL CHVRCH.— Several clergymen connected with the Epis copal church in this and adjoining counties held a convocation in the Lutheran church here last Week which was kindly lent for the occasion, the services were very interesting, and sermons were preached by the Rev. John F. Esch of Paradise, Lancaster Co., Rev. J. Newton Spear of Altoona. and Rev. John Cromlish of Columbia. Episcopal services are being held in the Lutheran church everjjj Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock and at the Springs every Sunday morning and evening. Efforts are being made to erect an Episcopal church edifice in this village. BsJX.We would call the attention of our rea ders to the fact that Prof. J. W. Taverner, the distinguished teacher of Elocution is staying at the Springs. We hope that the Professor may be prevailed upon to give sonie Readings frutu Shakspeare in town and at the Springs during his stay. As regards his reputation we need onlv call attentiou to the following high testimonial from Right Rev. Bishop Stevens : H'M. Bacon Stevens, l>. D. PHILADELPHIA, 12th Jan., 1857. Pear Sir: —Having gone with you through cirtC course of your Instruction. I am happy to testify my appreciation of your abilities as a Teacher," ana of the subject matter of your teaching. Having been myself a Professor of Belles Lettres and Oratory in the University of Geor gia for five years. I carefully scrutinized and sified your instruction in every possible way, and am prepared to say that your system has in it more true philosophy, more real excel lence and more practical value than any 1 have tier met with. Your lessons on the graces of Tiiud, on Flexibility of Voice, on Melody, on Oratoric al Delivery, and on Gesture, are invaluable, for the sound principles and deep philosophy which they contain. The nj:pi who thorough ly masters these, possesses the instruments whereby he can become a superior reader and qieaker. Army Correspondence. THESTON, N. J., July 13, 1805. KIUTOKS IXQUIKER: About five hundred ra. ii of the 2nd N. J. Cavalry, whose term of service expires prior to the Ist of October, arrived here on the evening of the 13th. When I wfote last we were near Ply mouth Landing, on the Tombigbee river. I will try and give you, in as few words as pos sible. an account of our trip from there here. Drawiug ten days rations for the men and the -ame amount of forage for the animals, we left camp on the 6th of .Tune with orders to proceed to Yicksburg, at which place we ar foed on the lfitb, coming via Goodman, Kos ciusko. Benton and Mechanicsburg, crossing the Big Black at the former place. The heat was intense and the men and animals suffer ed much for want of water. T_ nlike the State of Alabama, there are but few running streams; people depend mainly upon cisterns and wells for a supply, and the latter is mostly of a very , of quality. The land; the route we travel led, is generally of a poor quality, and partic ularly so after getting some twenty-five miles west of Columbus. It seems to have been tilled successively in cotton and corn so as to render it totally unproductive, unless it be for the raising of blackberries. We mainly 'ubsirted on the latter during the trip, for little cottotl witt planted this season, their attention being directed principally to the raising of corn. Wheat was being har vested. but of such a quality that farmers in :r section would scarcely think it worth har vesting. Well, Tennessee, Louisiana. Alabama, and Mississippi may be very fine States, but I sfe not vet seen any pfirt of either that I *ou!d rather live in thau the '"Old Key : stone." % : We went into camp at Bovina, on the southern R. R., ten miles from Yicksburg. a the immediate vicinity there was much to 1 o-cn. The situation of the old camp can be distinctly traced out, and, dotting the hills, w? the graves of those heroes who sacrificed 'neir Ibes for the COmtnOn country. Many have been taken up, itat many there fife -Iceping there who are unknown. Peace to their ashes. Here we laid until the 29th of June, when *e were mustered out ot the service. The wxt day we Went aboard the '".Maria Den ning.' at Yicksburg, landing at New Orleans '-ii the 2d of July. The glorious 4th was pass ed in the "Crescent City." I have not the 'pace or I would give you an account of the proceedings. Speeches were made by prom inent military men and the day wound up by grand display of fireworks. 'I he shipping presented a splendid spectacle. I shall ever remember the AOth anniversary of American Independence passed in the "Crescent City. On the sth we embarked on the steamer "Atalanta" for New York. Y\ e left New Orleans at 6 P. M. the same day, crossed the l| Sr at the mouth ot the Mississippi at 6A, M. 'he next morning, passed Key West light house at 4 P. M. of the Bth. reaching New York at 1 P. M. the 13th, just in time to wit ness the total destruction of Barnuni's Mu seum. Mc had a pleasant passage until reaching 'he vicinity of Cape Hatterus. The stor A commenced on the night of the 11th, and lastt-d some four hours. All ou board tho't 'he would go to the bottom, certain. "Life on the ocean wave" may all be very nice, but '<r me give me the dry land. Three of ou/ "umber died during the passage, two off the toast of Georgia on Sunday evening and one the night of the 12th off Cape May. Their ■•dies were sewed up in a blanket, the steam -r stopped, they were lowered over the side the steamer into the "deep blue sea, hree volleys were fired and the vessel again proceeded on her way. Twice ou a quiat Sabbath evening did this happeu. It "tmed hard, but it had to be, and they "sleep he lust sleep that knows no waking,' f in the l.niet depths of the sea, with the waves to " their last sad requiem. ! esterday about 2000 of the men attended Hetehel Hall to partake of the entertain -■ent provided at the expense of the State. te a number of them were also entertained i'e Soldiers' Rest, where tfie ladies had -de abundant provision for their reception. ■ - men are mustered out and are only wait - fur their pay, which, we understand will ' Stven to them next Thursday; iti the niean time all who desire will haTe an Opportunity to visit their hpiqes.i *,, ■ Yesterday we had the pleasure of seeing our oM mess-mate, Jacob Deremcr, who had come from home to procure his pay. Yes terday evening he succeeded iu obtaining his greenbacks sind left for home. From him 1 learned how the 4th was passed in Bedford, and of the utter insignificance of the Copper head demonstration. Another kick and they will never have resurrection." Ai.BEHT SMITH. General News Items. A I. A nor. lake of petroleum, fed from an cx haustless soarce, is said to exist on the Isth mus of Tehanntepec, not tar from the old Transit Line. Among those who have recent ly gone out there is John McLeod Murphy, Esq., formerly superintendent of the Transit, who claims to have been the original discov erer and explorer of the lake. It being but a few miles from navigable waters on both the Pacific and Gulf sides of the sthmus, its con tents could readily be shipped at small expense to all parts of the world. # THE statement, in some of the papers, that Admiral Dahlgren had realized an immense Amount of prize money, turns out to be incor rect. The whole of his proceeds will not be more than a thousand dollars. So efficient was the guard maintained along the twenty one ports sealed by the Admiral's squadron, that the blockade runners were afraid to go near him. IN a trial iu progress iu one of the courts of Sweden, a series of the most appalling crimes has been brought to light. A clergyman named Liudbaek, is charged with the murder of several of his parishioners by administering to them poison in their sacramental wine! The proof is so conclusive against him that not the slightest doubt of his guilt is enter tained. HON. ASA IbyrXEit, ot Mauch Chunk, has set apart the sum of five hundred thousand dollars to establish and endow a college near Bethlehem, in this State. He has given also fifty-seven acres of land, on which the college buildings will be erected. Judge Packer is now in Europe, but previous to his departure he communicated to Bishop Stevens his inten tion, and will superintend its organization himself.

The specie belonged to the treasury of the State of Tennessee when isham Horns was its Governor. When the State was captured by the Union troops, Governor Harris fled, taking the specie along with him. General Upton followed the fugitive rebel. The run away escaped, but the gold was returned--to Nashville, and Parson Brownlow decided to convert it into United States Bonds. This has been done by Jay Cooke, and the bouds have been forwarded to Nashville. THE Mormons are proved, by all recent and foriflgf" testimony, to be faithless, cruel, and full of treason. Outside of South Carolina we had no bitterer enemies than the Mormon leaders, and although like conquered slave holders they profess to be friendly now they are not to be trusted. The Daily Union \i detie, published at Salt Lake City, ami con ducted by a brave Union man, brands the whole crew, without fear, favor, or affection. These facts deserve to be known and recorded at a period when the government is girding up its loins to purge the whole land from ev ery element or symptom of an attempt to dis turb or interfere with its mighty progress. CURTAILING THE CURRENCY. —The frac tional currency is undergoing the process of curtailment. quantities are redeem ed daily at the Treasury Department in Washington, and at the various sub-treasu ries. It must be put up in packages when sent for redemption, containing even hun dreds of pieces—that is to say, each package of five cent pieces must contain fire dollars; of ten cent pieces, ten dollars, Ac. Differ ent varieties of tlie same denomination of curreuey must be sent in separate packages, faced uniformly upwards, and mutillated currency must be kept separately from the the whole. Thus arranged, if these packa fea be addressed to the Treasurer of the 'nited States at Washington, and register ed at the Post-office, returns by chock may be expected in from eight to ten days. This is all very well so far as it goes, and we hope the business of adding it in for redemption will be increased. But we should be glad to hear that the printing of three and five cent notes has ceased entirely. While they arc kept in circulation the one, two and three cent coins that are in large supply at the Mint, will not enter freely into circulation — not' for the reason, however, that some ar gue, that the people prefer tlie paper to the coin, for the very opposite is true. The pa per being loss valuable, every trailer pays it first away, thus keeping it steadily in circu lation, while the coin, as a thing more valu able, is snugly ensconced in some out-of-the way pocket. Remove the cheap, dirty, 'small three and five cent notes, and the coin will at once couie forth, and gradually break tlie way for the retiring of the ten cent notes. — 1 h ifatMpli m Lmger. THE GREAT PENSION LIST.—It has been many times said, now that the war is over, we must set about paying the expenses. The national debt will soon be placed in a position to be constantly diminished by the methods of taxation now in use. But there is one obligat ion which we cannot so readily discharge, which will be valid against the na tion for many years ; and that is, the obliga tion to pension those who have deserved well of tneir country. We can hardly judge of the extent to which this will reach, but since the war has closed, the claims arc rap idly accumulating and are arranged as rap idly" as possible. It Is stated t hat since, the war began 84.(X *1 pensions have been issued; 54,000 to invalid soldiers, and 50,000 to will ows, mothers and minor children. The payments to pensioners the past year have amounted to $9,000,000 and when all pen sions arising from the war shall have been granted, tlie annual expense will be about i13,000,(K>. "KEEP THEM OCT." —The New Fork Herald certainly has a very concise way of putting foots. It says: "There never can be a party successfully constructed at present, unless such men as Vallandighani and Pendleton of Ohio, the Seymours of New V ork and Connect icut, the Woods of New York, poor Pierce and musty old Buchanan are left out of the ring. That may be set down a- a fixed feet. This crowd will kill any party." RESTRICTIVE FIRE IN NEW YORK. Biirniim-s -Hnseum destroyed.—Suppo sed work of lie be 1 sympathizers,— Fromiiient.llebels applying lor pardon. Carl Schura on a lonr ol observation. NEW YOKK, July 13th.— A fire broke out at noon in Barnum's Museum, and ex tending rapidly to the adjoining building on Broadway and Fulton, streets. The Muse-' -emn was totally destroyed. Numbers 12, J4,16 and IK Ann street,occupied by various parties, including Dnnnhoe's store, Grant's restaurant, French. Wheat, Dick and Fitz gerald printers and others, were burned. Number 21fi Broadway, occupied by A. White, hatter, and Van Names restaurant, weie destroyed. Number 214 Broadway, occupied by Holers ft Raymond, clothiers, and Reeves' billiard saloon were consumed. Number 21 1 Broadway, occupied by Knox, hatter, and others was destroyed. The fire men were iu force and the flames were here stayed, no one was injured. The loss is said to be one milion, on which there is half a million insurance. The lire originated over a boiler in the Museum basement, NEW YORK, July 15. —The Tribune says; It is now declared that the famous Museum was fired by incendiaries in a half-dozen pla ces simultaneously. It is suspected that the guilty parties .were rebel sympathizers, who j were offended by tire prominence Barnum j has given to the manner of Jeff". Davis' cap- j tare. Barnum has received letters of sym pathy, and offers of curiosities for his new Museum. Tlio proprietors of the Winter Garden have tendered Hie use of that estab lishment for a few weeks. The proprietors of other theat res have offered wardrobes and properties. Prominent actors offer to ap pear at the benefit to Barnum's company. Ex-rebel Congressmen Garnet, of Virgin ia, and A vary and Henry, of Tennessee, are in Washington applying for pardons. All of these gentlemen were formerly in the United States Congress. Geu. Carl Schurz has been sent by the President to travel through the South en a tour of observation as to the working of emancipation, loyalty of the whites, the con dition of the blacks, and the fitness of the States for immediate restoration to their status prior to secession. He will visit every State lately in revolt, Texas included. TIIK PretsD F the 7th inst has the follow in? sensible view of the Oil trade and Oil stocks:—The oil-stoek business is still in its transition state. The wonderful success that many of the companies have attained in the past, the remarkable swiftness with which fortunes were made, by the lucky, stimulated speculation to an extraordinary extent. In tne beginning everything was favorable, but too much speculation has affected the whole oilpioducing occupation, and at the present time the petroleum inter est is flattened out. Oil stocks are discour aged, and buyers are cautious. Undoubt edly many of the moonshine corporations which have been started will have to fail. They will exhaust the means and patience of their stockholders. The latter will resolve to pay no more money, considering what they nave already contributed as inevitably 10-t. Either a few men wi 11 get the manage ment of them, or they will be sold out, and those who come in at the death will bag the game. And yet, with all these disadvantages petroium, per se, will uot suffer. It has be come an object of worth to commerce, and the demand for it will be steady. If the number of producers decrease, the value of the productions increase. The companies organized for the production of oil, which have avoided the arts of the stock exchange which have at all times paid attention to the development of their lauds, and which have been managed with patient industry, will rnp thu bonrfif. Ttkeir eouts from the first. It was to attend to their own business, unmindful of the turmoil around them. They are now approaching the time when it will be demonstrated that this policy will pay. As the number of flimsy companies fade out —as the chaff is riddled from the grain—the old-fashioned, honestly conducted companies will rise in estimation. They will find their reward in good prices for their oil and enhanced value for their stocks. Happy they who have in terest ia such concerns,for they will undoubt edly receive the benefit of their patience and perseverance. The general depression in all branches ot business has seriously effected the stock market, and oil stocks have been extremely dull for some weeks past. Indeed there are very few sales of any stocks, and there will lie but few until the summer months are passed. But while stocks are dull in specu lative channels, there never was such earnest, gigantic and diversified development in the oil region as this summer. Despite the se verity of the winter, which. stopped all op erations preparatory to bovine, and the des tructive March flood, wfcrch carried off half the derricks on the oil streams, the work of developing has been prosecuted with bound less energy-, and must soon tell Sensibly on the value of all stocks which have any sub stance in them. All the leadiug commercial journals predict a degree of activity in oil stocks this fall surpassing anything we have yet witnessed. They will then bo better un derstood —the worthless and bogus com panies will lie exposed and driven from the market, and the good companies will gener ally have tested the quality of their lands. The sooner the bogus, companies are exploded the I tetter, as the jaiblic will then be able to invest with much more saftv and the stock of reliable companies, which is now pros trated with the bogus organizations because accurate discrimination is impossible, will advance in value to a just standcred. We .are glad to see the officers of several swind ling concerns in the courts now in Philadel phia and New York, and the more vigor ously that work is pushed by defrauded stock holders, the sooner will holders of good stocks realize a just value for them. All the indi cations point to the production of vast quan tities of oil this summer and fall, and many stocks which now hane sluggishly oath* hands of owners will attain vast value. There arc over twenty welLs in various stages of progress on the Imperial property, and four on the Sterling—all of which must be tested within sixty days, and some of them sooner. An 800 barrel well was struck on Pit-hole quite near to the property of the Sheridan and Cherry Run property last week, and that stock is consequently held at an advanced rate. GET OFF THAT mr.Mp.—Atuongthe parol-; led rebel prisoners who came up on the rtea mer Lady Gay on Tuesday, was a man lit tle over seven feet and a half in height. He started out with the Missouri troops at the commencement of the war. and stuck to then* until the "dog was. dead and never received a scratch, Soon after he was mus tered into the rebel Service, the regiment to which he belonged appeared before the Col onel on dress parade, and the Colonel, who prided himself on the fine appearance and good si/.e of his men, cast his eyes along the line with a smile of self-satisfaction, until they rested on the towering form of the tall Missonrian, when he knit his brows, and called out fiercely in thunder tones, "Get off that stump, you impertinent scoundrel, or I'll order you under arrest." The soldiers looked at each other, wondering what the Colonel meant, hut no one moved. Finding his authority treated with disrespect, he fairly boiled with rage, and, advancing to the l>ig soldier. he exclaimed, "What in the d —l arc you standing on?'' The soldier re spectfully replied, On my feet, Colonel.' The Colonel was completely taken back, as he surveyed this tall specimen of humanity from head to foot in blank ainamement: he mnmbled an apology for his rude remarks and hastened away leaving his men convuls ed with laughter. "Get off that stump became a byword with the uissouri rebels and it will no doubt live as long as the long Missourian.- Cairo fhmocrat, Copperhead lies about Catholics. We clip tie following from the A". Y. Tribune. To the Editor* of the N- Y. Tribune. Sir: Soon after the arrest of the eonspir -8 trs and would-be assassins of the late la mented President Lincoln, a reporter of The N. Y. Wrrfhl stated that they were all with out an exception, Catholics. This assertion was extensi 'ely copied into the papers of the country, and was looked upon as true, for no Catn< lie paper here in .New York attemp ted to refute, live Catholic Telegraph of Cincinnati denied its truth,but the World did not make the correction. Now, what is the fact? Four of the conspirators were yester day on the gallows expiated their awful crime, but only one of the four died a Catholic. Of those imprisoned, on ly one. l)r. Mudd, is a Catholic. Now, what I wish to say about this is, that if The Tribune has made the statement The World did, we would not have yet heard the last of it: for The Tablet, The Freeman. Irish American, &c., woidd have written columns in reply, and would have denounced it as a Black Republican, Abo lition lie! You would have been abused by these organs ol Irish Catholicism (?) through all the moods and tenses; and it would be adduced at the next election as an evidence of the anti-Catholic and anti-Irish spirit of Abolitionism. But The World being a good sound Oopperhead-Pro-Slavery-Democratic paper, it has I suppose, a special license to say whatever it pleaae* about Catholics.— Oue thing is certain, Democratic papers can abuse the Irish and the Catholics to their hearts' content, without a protest from the would-be-Catholic press, which shows plain ly enough that the Democratic-ridden Cath olics of New York think more of their pol itics than they do of their religion. I came to that conclusion years ago, and even,' day confirms it more and more in my miud. &tr York. July 8, 1865. A CATHOLIC. Democracy* It is 1 'Democratic'' to assail and malign soldiers of the Union, who have sacrificed in its eause—who have borne the brunt of danger on the field of battle —who have sav ed our institutions, while copperhead press es and disloyal orators doing every thing to divide and distract Northern senti ment and to render possible a triumph of Rebellion. It is "'Democratic" to assume an advoca cy of the course of every General who quar rels with the War Department, and tojeon c-lude that the Government must be wrong whenever an individual wearing two stars on his shoulders choses to dissent from its policy. It is "Democratic" to allude to United States Judges and other Federal Represen tatives iu the South as "ignoraut pettifog gers." "cotton swindling vagabonds," "'ex alted ignoramuses;" ana so on, while taking care to sjieak of Gen. Lee in no terms less complimentary than "retired hero," or "chivalrous soldier." It is "Democratic" to urge measures of the largest liberality for restoring to proper ty possession, civil right and social stand ing, Rebels who have shot down our soldiers in battle, while denouncing as "fanaticism" any proposition to ameliorate the condition or increase the privileges of loyal Blacks, who have fought under the banners of the Union—steadfastly and uncomplainingly making every required sacrifice in its cause. It is ' 'Democratic'' to ridicule the freed men because they do not immediately de velop the best qualities of free laborers, while at the same time applauding the reso lution of their late masters not to hire them or permit others to do so, but to drive them from the Southern States if possible. In sh"rt, it is "Democratic" tu, ovary measure wuiuu iwm Co n completion of our triumph by the extinction of those elements at the South which initiated war, and waged it with such brutality and feroci ty. The same causes which made the last "Democratic" Administrations pliant tools of Slavery propagandistn, forbid the leaders of the party from taking any ground which will increase the embarrassments of their old time associates iu the Rebellious States. The future strength of the "Democratic" organization (if it is to have any.) will be imparted by the fourteen classes exempted from general pardon in the President s am nesty proclamation. That accounts for the "milk in the cocoanut,"— Sovicrsct HeraiiJ. Emigrants Wanted. The Richmond Republic , (quoting the ac counts of emigrants arriving in New York, says: "Bend them South. We are hunger ing and thirsting after these stout, healthy emigrants. Our fields want them; our for ests are sighing for them; finance wants them; the fireside wants them; politics wants them. We have broad acres and a welcome for many a day's importation of them —yes, many a month's cargo even at this high rate and we have a genial country? a hospitable people, easy employment, indulgent task m oxters, and abounding room for all. Let them come, with their healthy country blood and stout country limbs, their new ideas and new systems of labor, with their intelligence cleanliness, thrift, sobriety, industry, theilr virtuous habits, their respect for authority, .their obedience to law —and we will make room for them gladly. All that is.needed to turn the current of migration southward, and especially towards Virginia, is to con vince the workingmen that they will have equal rights there. They object to "task masters," no matter how "indulgent" they may be; and while there is any air of task masters about Virginnia. no inducements will gel free men down there. — JV. Y. Pott.

After the expiration of this term, he re-enlisted for three years more, and served until the close of the war. This brave and daring soldier deserves more than a passing notice. He entered the ranks as a pri vate, but owing to the integrity of his charurtor and gallantry in action, he was proinotod until he ranked as Ist. Lieutenant. He was a pure patriot, and entered the ariny because he loved the Union. He was highly esteemed by officers and men, and distinguished himself upon many a battle-field. God protected him amid the dangers incident to a soldier's life, and permitted him to die in the bosom of his family.
