IiEiIGIOES INTELLIGENCE. Christian Commissions for Labor in the Army._ The army committees of the Young Mon's Chris tian Associations, of this and other cities, have dp ri Q geed ,service in the army by their systematic offortetoWiirrister to the spiritual wants of the sot- diem. It has been proposed that these associations throughout the whole North scud delegates to a general convention, to be held, soon, in the pity of New York, for the purpose of securing a more efft ' tient organization. A meeting preparatory to this contemplated convention was recently held at the Tremont Temple, Boston, the proceedingVof which, as - Published in the newspapers of the city, show that the eenlimont among the Christians of Boston, in favor of instituting missions of practical utility in the army, is enthusiastic and unanimous. The meeting, which was very large, was addressed by E. S. Tobey, Esq., president of the Boston Associa tion; Mr. Chas. Demand, Rev. Drs. Neale, Kirk, and .Newhall, and Gcorge,.l.l. Stuart, Esq., of this city. The following is an abstract of Mr. Stuart's re marks, as published in the Boston - Ton rnal : "George H. Stuart, of Philadelphia, chairman of the Commission, was the speaker, and dwelt earnestly upon the important duties which this or ganization must perform. Raving visited the camps around Washington, ho had corns bask with an awakeried sense of the magnitude of necessities which were opened before him. From the tower of the Smithsonian Institute the - gaze of the spectator rests only on the innumerable camps with which every bill and Alley is covered, and this is but a -part of the great field in which the Commission is called to labor. With the navy, the whole number of men now hi the service of our Government in its endeavors to put down rebellion, will reach very nearly MAO. The influence which may bo ex erted upon this vest multitude is almost incalcula ble. It extends to the battle field, and even be yond:that, into eternity itself. It is a question also, whether wo will have these men come backto us degenerate ,and degraded or under the impulse of Christian purposes " "Through the kirid sympathy of the President and other officers of the Government, it is also a most accessible field, and the men, whatever might have been their dispositions at home, are now ready and to listen to the Gospel and its teachings. They all want books to read, and in two weeks spent in aistribnting traots among them he had met with but two who refused to take them. The men have four or five hours leisure each day, and must have something to occupy their time. Some of the chaplains have organized union• prayer meetings, debating, societies, and singing schools in their re gimente, which are largely attended, and are occa sions of much interest to the soldiers. The men of the Massachusetts Fourteenth hold a prayer meet ing each day in ono of the bomb proofs of the fort which they occupy, end the average attendance is, sixty or more: " It is an agreeable field in which to labor, and great results are flowing from tho labor already performed. In his visits to the camps he had seen unmistakable evidences of this, and signs of great encouragement. '• The other departments of the army are all sup. plied—the ordnance department, the quartermass tees department, dcc., Ss., but the Government ap point.; a chaplain, pays him, and then leaves dim with no means by which to carry on the work: It is an object which commends itself to the heart of every man and woman. We must all make sacri fices, and can find no better cause than this." THE Wahl: or PIIATEIL—In conformity to a proposition which emanated frifrii certain Ame rican iniesionaries in India, the present week Ns been devoted by Christians, more or less generally, throughout the World, to prayer for the conversion of the whole human family. Tho chief centre of its outward observance in this city has been at the Noonday Prayer Meeting, Sansom street, below Ninth, whore the meetings during this week have been held from 12 AL to li P. M., in stead of the usual hour. The meetings, in conse quence of this special interestawakened by general announcements from the pulpits, have been very largely attended, and proseouted with commenda ble harmony and- unwonted spirit. In addition to these, union meetings for prayer have also been held every afternoon in various churches through , out the city. At the Noonday Meeting yesterday, the special subject of prayer was "The Word eft God; that it may bo received with increased faith, reverende, and- love ; that its assailants may be enlightened and brought into the way of truth; that the power of the Divine Spirit may attend its private study and circulation throughout the world." In the afternoon, at II o'clock, there was a union meeting held in the Rev. Dr. Taylor's church, Tenth and Filbert streets, for the same ob ject. Tie concluding afternoon mecting,of the I series will ho hold this (Saturday) afternoon in the Chetah of the Epiphany (Episcopal), corner of ... - __xusLwe-rith and Chestnut streets, to be presided over by Aw INDEPENDENT METTITTToi- - 74E 0 ,a i ,",,,,,„_ 14MM-1 - here has been recently held in John's Methodist Church, in New York, a " Con ference of Independent Methodist Churches in the United States," in which the representation con sisted of about twenty delegates, lay and clerical. This is the initial step of a movement which bids fair, sooner or later, either to develop a new and distinct branch of the Ifejledist Episcopal Church in this country, or else to cause certain reforms to be generally adopted in the Methodist Episcopal Church as it now exists. The peculiarities of this new body we believe are simply these : Whilst they adhere to the doctrines and mode of worship of the Methodist Church, they have no bishops or presiding elders, the churches being independent of the Con ference, owning their property, choosing their pas tors for themselves, and retaining them as long as they_please. Their Conferencri-:-whith posed of Ministers and lay delegates—is to have no legislative, executive, or judicial authority over the, local churches. At the Conference above re ferred to, the Rev. hi. Striple, of Brooklyn, was chosen president; Rev. 11. Mattison, of Now York, secretary ; and Mr. James M. Coburn, of New York, treasurer. Two young men were also or dained to t ho ministry by this new body, and arrange ments were made for starting aperisdical, to be called the Methodist Independent Ito be edited by Professor Mattison. NEW.REeTOR OF TUE HOLY TRINITY.—Tho Rev. Phillips Brooks assumed the resstorshin* are, Church of the Holy T_____d rinit '4,4 - 16 . r0i, - both morning on het Sureig , v w ,,,,, er a ocr i ng, - and the cervices Wm - Dilly solemn and impressive. Mr. Brooks is a graduate of the Episcopal Seminary, until lately in operation at Alexandria, Virginia, and has, during the last two yearn, served the Church of the Ad vent, in this city, as rector, with great acceptance. Ills call to succeed the Rov. Dr. Vinton in his now charge is a high, though well-deserved, compliment to so young a man. Tux Anent:mos , OF NEW Yonx.---The Paris correspondent of the London Tablet writes r " The Archbishop of New York preached in St. Roch on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, 'Jaen a crowded and proniiscuous audience. Ho made no al— lusion to passing events, much to the disappointment of the curious. We hear that his opinions on politi cal matters are to be produced in form of a pamph let, Ca be addressed to John Bright, and will appear in a few days. All hero. were much impressed with the calm dignity of his manner, and the select phrase and force of his argument. It seems gene rally understood amongst Americans that he is ac credited from President Lincoln with a secret mis sion to Europe." PRAISING 001. 111 , ELECTRICITY.—The last Yankee notion extant, in the religious world, at least, must be accredited to a now Unitarian Church in Boston, said to be the finest in Now England, in which they have succeeded in turning thunder and lightning into an instrument "of worship. This church is supplied with a full chime of belle in the spire, which aro to be played upon by moans of electricity, so that the performer may cause them all to sound while seated at a koy-boord similar to that of en organ. .Aprapo. , of this., we may also state that a new Methodist church in our modern Athens has also introduced a very singular improvement, consisting in the use of a stream of Coehituate water to‘blow the organ. - The organist has only to turn a stop. Mk which lets on the water, and the bellows are put in motion, and the instrument adequately sup plied with wind. CALL ACCEPTED.—MO understand that the Rev. Daniel March, of Wobarn, Massachusetts, has ac cepted the call of the "Clinton-street Presbyterian Chnich in thin city, late charge of the Rev. Dr. Dialing. Mr. March is expected to enter upon his new duties on the third Sunday of this month. Ile hes attained a high reputation and a wide celebrity as a pulpit orator, and will be a welcome acquisition to Abe already large list of enthient Philadelphia divines. GENERAL MCCLELLAN'S CONFIDENCE IN GOD,— The Rev, Dr. Thonipson reports that not long since, while in conversation with General llfcClel lan upon the goodness and mercy of God, the young commander-in. chief threw himself back in his chair, and said, with deep emotion * For what puree eau it be that one but lately engaged upen a railroad, so young, and having yet done nothing todeserve such a place,:should be advanced for the time to perhaps the moat responsible position in the country ?" But," continued he, gi it is of God, who often chooses the weakest, and even the meanest instrunients to acoomplish his 'purposes." SUNDAY-SCHOOL ANNIVEHEIARY AND EXHIBITION. —The fortieth anniversary of the sunday schools of the Presbyterian Church, Gorman street, below Third f will take place in that edifice tomorrow afternoon at half past two o'clock. On Thursday -evening, the 14th instant, there will be an enter tainment consisting of stereoscopic views, reci tations, singing, etc., given in this church for the benefit of the schools. • QHDINATION.—We understand the Rev. Francis Hoskins, of this city, lately admitted a Deacon in the Protestant Episcopal Church of this diocese, will .be ordained tomorrow, at Grace Church, Twelfth and Cherry , streets. The Right Rev. Dr. Stevens, the recently consecrated Bishop, will offi ciate; on this ocoeslon, assisted by other divines. The seivices will commence at 101. A.M. THE SECOND 'UNITARIAN SOCIETY..—The public sirroes of thLi sooiety, will be• rammed in Wash ington Bid!, Southwest coiner Spring Garden and Eighth streets, to-morrow morning. Preaching by the Rev. Frederic Frotbingham. ,LXY DELEGATION.--One of our Methodist ex 'Changes says : "It has been said that tho fooling of the Church for lay-delegation is confined to the large cities ; BO far from this being the case, when any interest Welt at all in .rural districts, the vote nearly always goes to favor of the reform." KENTECEY CONFERENCE, M. E. Cannon, BOUM—This body has sixty-four Union, and only eighteen or twenty Secession members, not one of lib= is delegate to the next General Conference, South, at its May session in Now Orleans. TENT FOR WORSIIIP.—A chapel tont for the Sixteenth Massachusetts Regiment, near Fortress Monroe, ReV. A. D. Fuller, of Watertown, chap lain, was dedicated Dee. 10. The tent was put.- chased and sent out by the friends of the regiment. Chaplains of the following denominations assisted in the service: Methodist, O. S. Presbyterian, N. S. Presbyterian, Unitarian, 'Episcopal, and Roman C tholie ; and an address was also delivered by Hon. Charles R. Train, M. C., from Framingham, Mass. PRIESTS DECEASED. The Irish papers an nounce the deaths of two prominent and greatly esteemed priests of the Catholic Church—Rev. Maurice Dowly, C. C., of Carriok•on•Suir, and Rev. Anthony Megan, P. P., of Killanan. FAST WOMEN OF TIIE BIBLE.—A New York publisher has received from a well known military gentleman the offer of an illustrated work on the Fast Women of the Bible. Mrs. Lot, Mrs. poti phar, Delilah, and Mrs. King Ahab (Jezebel)—cor ruptcd into our modern rubella—will probably figure among the prominent characters. DISTRIBUTION OF BIBLES.—The New York City Bible Society have supplied about ono hundred regiments, passing through that city, with Bibles. More than 80,000 volumes, in various languages, have been distributed in this way. REMS ABOUT SPI'RGEOn.—The Londoh COM spundent of The Presbyterian devotes his lastlettor almost entirely to that world-renowned Baptist divine, the Rev. Mr. Spurgeon. This writer says that the new "Metropolitan Tabernacle," in which he preaches, is capable of Heating five thousand per sons, and that its eremion, with the ground on which it stands ; cost one hundred and sixty thousand dot. late ; the pews throughout aro so arranged that every eye rests naturally upon the pulpit ; also, that Mr. Spurgeon pursues his ministry in the now tabernacle with amazing success; that his audiences fill the house to its utmostcapaoity ; that the exposition of the portion of Scripture read by him is a grand lea.: turo of his ministry—epigrammatic ; telling, simple, and instructive to a degree; that Mr. Spurgeon's health is not as strong as it was, whilst his labors, with a membership of nineteen hundred column:li cents, and constantly enlarging, are daily increas ing. Tie writer concludes by saying that: Mr Spurgeon generously surrenders, or rather devotes, a large portion of the pew rents to the education of students. Many of those are his spiritual children. He Lavery successful in discern ing adaptation in Christian yonng men. He thus selects a class likely to do honor to his zealous care. They have mathematical, classical, and Ifebretv tu tors, and Mr. Spurgeon himself teaches theology. AU these young men will be thoroughly Calvinistic, in the evangelical and Pauline sense of that word, and will, by God's grace, become a great blessing in an age when Rationalism is coming in, both into Established and Non-conformist pulpits." I - .Eloquent Speech of lion. Wm. D. Kelley, of Pennsylvania. On Tuesday last the Hon. Was. D. Holley, the Representative from the Fourth Congressional dis (riot in this State, pronounced the following speech. It is regarded. as one of the moot earnest and effective efforts of the session, and produced a fine impression upon the House : Mr. KELLEY. Mr. Chairman : I voted, in com mon with the whole House, for the thanks to Cap tain Wilkes. I know that since then the four per- EOM he captured have been surrendered, yet I do not regret that vote. It was well Cast, and I do not mean to say that the surrender was not well made. Captain Wilkes was an experienced of of our navy—a service deeply disgraced by a want of devotion to their country on the part of many of its officers. He saw .what, ho believed to be his duty, and he paused not to consider whether it involved personal consequences, but as he under stood it, performed that duty; he performed it in a manner creditable alike to his head and his heart; firmly, thoroughly, but in a manner marked by humanity and consideration for tbo feelings_ and interests of innocent passengers on board the Trent, and the necessities of an age of steam navigation. Congress, without qualification, endorsed that act. Not so with the Administration. While the Secre tary of the Navy approved the act, he admonished the actor that it must notbe considered a precedent for the surrender of another vessel under like cir cumstances. The Administration saw that Captain Wilkes' act of humanity might be taken advantage of by such a Power as England, and it marked at once its discriminating appreciation of the conduct of its officer and of the nation with which it has to do, by the just qualification of its approval. As a member of the American Congress, I do, from the bottom of my heart, thank Captain Wilkes fur his gallant and humane conduct. The gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Vallsonlighans) seems to be eager for a war with England. Sir, - as dire a calamity as can befall a people. It Inn - 5.." ,- exPrisaleasseme at which kings can play, the most destriiativirpmeoeitatuutssols-a_coeople can engage. The figure of a candle lighted et both ends affords but an imperfect illustration of the wastefulness of war. What is its object? The ex hibition and skilful exercise of overwhelming pow er. What its means? The ultimate use of the latest and highest inventions of man for the de struction of property and life. It takes from the belligerent community its productive pawer, its energy, its enterprise. It appeals to the mon of the country from eighteen to forty-five to quit their peaceful pursuits, to abandon the hopes of - life and civic duties, and engage in the work of destrue tiOh. Having withdrawn the vital power from the community, it taxes its accumulated wealth to food, clothe, arm, and transport these who in ponorm-m.ra the source of its increasing wealth and prosperity. We have a war on hand. We have, says one gen tleman, half a million, anqther. six hundred thou-- Siinrinerilifthe . field. We begin to know some thing of what war means—not much near our dis tant hones—bore and there a new-made grave in the churchyard, hero and there a vacant seat at the hearth-aide, and anxious hearts in every home •' but as yet few of the direst evidences of the exietenee of a state of war. Wo see it, in the deserted man done of the great city. We note it in the silence prevailing where we were wont to hear the ring of the anvil, and the hum of' the spindle. We find it in our commercial, our manufacturing, our busi ness relations. But as yet we have felt it in its last terrible results but slightly.. or I do not wish to son war en of the Trent do I feel hunciiiatAg o i=ii i an hour when our pride diffien . • ()uched, when the act seemed to be one o humiliation—we were able to maintain the posi tion for which our country has contended for more than half a century, and for the maintenance of which it had once involved itself in war. The Trent case is settled on a doctrine which has always been the doctrine of the American people. I cannot sympathize with those who say, Settle our do mestic, difficulties, and then [ turn on England for the insult and outrage she put upon us." Sir, let us settle our - .domestic difficulties. Let us do so promptly—the more humanely because so promptly and vigorously—with no reference to foreign na tions, but with an oyo single to what is duo to our own great country, its grand, though brief, history, its grander, end, I trust, more enduring future. Let us take care that, from this day henceforward, the country shall be ready to stand by the law as in its hour of need and wounded pride it settled IL Let us see that, when again the question of neutral rights comes up, the United States shall be ready with force upon the sea, and heart upon the land, to meet the world in arms in defence of their che rished doctrine, thus sanctified anew to the hearts of their people. War, sir, terrible as it is, has its laws. It is also said to have its amenities; and I believe it has, though the foe with which we are now engaged has found no opportunity to illustrate them It is said on this floor, by the gentleman from Ohio, Mr. - Vallandigham,j that the settlement of the .7'rent case will invite war or insult from England. I think that England would, for reasons of State policy, like very much to engage in war with America at this time—not tho English people, but the govern ing classes of England. And, air, I think our own course of action—or, to speak more precisely, of in aotion—invites them to declare war. I think that the condition of this capital to-day invites war from any Power that feels disposed to make its own terms with armed impotence. Look at it, sir. Tho City is surrounded with newly-imule earth works, scientifically planned and well constructed, well manned, and supplied with approved arma ments. Soldiers tell us that thirty thousand mon would hold this capital against any force that can be brought against it. It is environed within a narrow circuit 'by two hundred thousand mon in mica And yet, sir, the short river which leads to this capital of a zreat and proud country, thus de fended and encircled by patriot troops, is so thorough ly bleokeded by rebels that the Government, though ils army hes not en adequate supply of forage, (=- Mt bring opon it a peck of eats to fowl a hungry horse. Is not this a eight which jealous nationsmay behold with exultation, and from which they may deduce a want of spirit, courage, military capacity —call it what you'please ? Is It a sight at which men _may well wonder, and which the gods must pity ! We have six hundred thousand mon in the Wo have spent, I know not bow many hun dred millions of dollars; and what have we done? What one evidonee of determined war or military skill have we exhibited to foreign nations or our own people ? Why, sit, we are carrying on war on peace principles. We have been engaged in it for seven months; and - if the Government of England will infer from the conduct of this war what our treat ment of her Would be in the event of war, she will conclude that if she were to put her troops into Canada, the American Government would plant an army of a quarter of a million of men on the Ame rican shore of the lakes; whose sole duty it should be to prevent Canadians from deserting the English standard, and periling their lives in the cause of constitutional- republicanism. Our army does not seem to be engaged in war. Our mon, it is true, are liable - to be murdered when serving as pickets. They are liable to be slaughtered, as my townsmen were at Ball's Bluff. They are liable to encounter masked batteries, served by concealed foes. But they are not led to where they might hurt anybody. Their businesaseenis to be to prevent desertion from the standard of the enemy, to prevent men in the enemy's lines from quitting their work at digging the enemy's trenches, or bearing the enemy's arms, or serving,the enemy in any other manner preju dicial to our cause. Sir, this is a melancholy truth. But more than this, when it is necessary to invade a small portion of the soil of the enemy, we shrink from the dread necessity, and apologize so abjectly for coming that we fail to regard the truth in expressing the pain we feel. When it was necessary to plant email force on the soil of South Carolina, the (commander to whom the expedition was confided humbly apo logized for having invaded the soil of a sovereign State. the ready answer to his proclamation being, , "Well, if it boa sovereign State, what the deuce has brought you hero?" Logic could furnish no more responsive or conclusive answer. Our gene oils must learn that these are not the piping times of peace, and throw something of the vigor of war ' into their doings. England may not respect inter-sa, national law ; but she does respect power. Lot her ' hear by the next west wind the booming of cannon and the rattle of musketry. Lot her hear the shouts of a victorious army. Nay, sir, if it need, ho, let the groans of the dying, and the wailing and la nwntations of the bereaved go mingling with the shouts of the victors, and England and the Powers of the continent will pause with bated breath. Let the power of our army be put forth in the contest in which we are now engaged, and we shall have no trouble with foreign nations. But so long as our army is used,-as it now is, as n mere band of armed police to prevent the laborers of the rebels and the disaffected mon of their country from escaping and serving us, to secure the enemy plenty of men to dig their trenches and perform their labor ; long, THE PRESS.-PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, JANUARY 11, 1862. I say, BM we employ six hundred thousand armed men to secure to the rebels the laborers to raise their crops and clothes for the next veer, nations will insult and deride us, and we will be in danger of foreign war. Sir, it was said yesterday, that the last day had come. It was not on this subject. But my heart has been Bed for days past, for I have felt that the last day of our dear country was rapidly approach ing. Before we have achieved a victory wo have reached bankruptcy. We are to-day flooding the country with en irredeemable currency. In ninety days, with the patriotism of the people paralyzed by the inaction of our great army, the contracting channels of circulation will be gorged with this medium, and the funded debt of the country will depreciate with a rapidity that will startle us. In ninety days more of this mailed, armed, encamped, and entrenched peace, the nations of the world will, I fear, be justified in saying to us, a You have no more right to shut up the cotton fields of the world bye vain and fruitless endeavor to reconquer the territory now in rebellion, than China and. Ja pan had to wall themselves in." And in the eyes of international law, in the eyes of the world, and I fear in the eyes of impartial history, too, they will stand justified in breaking our blockade, in giving to the rebels means and munitions of war, and accomplishing what England desired when, with boastful hypocrisy, she added £20,000,000 sterling to her national debt in order to lodge free black communities near to us, and to excite agitation in our midst. In ninety dap—for, sir, lot me say hero that already complaints come, not from the mon, for they seem willing to perform any duty for their country, but from offloers, in the neigh borhood of the Charleston and Savannah rail road, that their men are engaged in digging trenches and performing the drudgery of unskilled laborers, while other men of darker complexion aro roaming listlessly about unemployed, though anxious to earn wages by such labor; nay, more anxious to give such proof of their devotion to our cause. We must learn that ono of the first laws of war requires a belligerent to cut off all the re sources of his enemy. Save life, (especially save the lii, es of your own men, but out off all the re sources of *our enemy, and, if need be, cut off life too. Such is the duty of the soldier. If you con conquer by taking away tho enemy's resources, humanity prompts to that course. But we are not, it seems, willing to avail our selves of their resources. We are too generous to deprive them of them. We are, as I have said, playing policemen to protect them. But, sir, in less than ninety days—to come back to the point of time—we shall be advancing in the mouth of April, when our . Northern men will begin to feel the effect of the bent in the neighborhood of Ship Island and the ,mouths of the Mississippi. Looking to that period of ninety days, I say that it is not a double but a triple-edged sword approaching perhaps the single thread of destiny upon which the welfare of our country hangs. Bankruptcy, miasmatic pesti lence, aro sure to come with the lapse of that period, and foreign war may add its horrors to theirs. I thank the Government that in the hour of its agony it stood upon our historical doctrine. I thank it that it honorably avoided war with England ; and I pray God that it may as far read the laws of war as to learn that it is the duty of Congress, the generals at the head of the several columns of the army, and the Government of the United States, to cut off all the resources of the rebels now in arms against us. It is the first and last law of soar. Its thorough enforcement is railed for by all the promptings of patriotism and hu manity, and promises internal and external peace to our distracted country.

Some of them answer in special cases, but more often the vehicle neutralises the usual effect of the Oil, proving quite as unpalatable and of less therapeutic value. The repug nance, nausea, dc., to invalids, induced by disgust of the 011, is entirely obviated by the use of our CAPSULES. COD-LIVER OIL CAPSULES have boon much used lately in Enrope, the experience thrro of the good re sults from their use in both hospital and private practice, aside from the naturally suggested advantages, are suf ficient to warrant our claiming the virtues we do for them, feeling assured their use will result in benefit and deserved favor.
