/The IJay and its Sacred Duties.
BY GRATBEAKD,
On the sth of July, 1776, eighty-aeven years agb
to-morrow, John Adams, in a letter to his wife, used
the following language: " The 4th oF July will be a
memorable epoch in the history of America/ I am
apt to believe it will be celebrated by succeeding
generations as the great anniversary festival. It
ought to be solemnized with pomps, BhOws, games,
sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from
one end of the continent to the other, from this time
forward forever. You will think me transported
with enthusiasm, but lam not. lam well aware of
the toil, and blood, and treasure, that it will cost to
maintain this Declaration, and support and defend
these States, yet through all the gloom I can see the
rays of light and glory. I can see that the end ia
worth more than all the means, and that posterity
will triumph, although you and I may rue, which I
hope we shall not.”
John Adams wrote a prophecy when-he penned
these lines. Would to God that the descendants of
the men of ’76 could, in the faith which animated
Adams, say with him to-day, " Through all the gloom
I can see the rays of light and glory.” The Book of
books tells us that there is a time for all things—" a
season and a time, to every purpose under heaven ; a
time to weep, and % time to laugh; a time to mourn,
and a time to dance; a time to get, and a time to
lose; ft time of war, and a- time of peace.” Under
the overruling, or, at least, permissive providence
of God, the present anniversary of our national de
liverance finds us in the darkest shadow of this pa
norama—the time to weep, the time to mourn, the
time of war—beyond question the darkest hour in
our history as a nation. Let us hope that it is the
hour before day, The question presented to us for
immediate settlement is not can we, but .Will we
maintain for ourselves and posterity the liberties for
whioh our fathers fought and died! or will we earn
for ourselves the reproach of being a nation of in
grates and imbeciles, by surrendering our birth
right to traitors! There is some comfort in the
truth that all is not lost that is in danger. If it were
not so, we might well shudder at the prospect of
having our jubilant and joyous highways
days transformed into a via Dolorosa j of having
Independence Hall desecrated with the vaunting
emblem of treason, and of hearing from its
sYeeple, (whence, nighty-seven years ago, re
sounded the peal of " liberty throughout the
land,”) the deatlvknell of freedom—whioh Heaven
forbid I And yet we h ave no right to suppose that
Heaven will forbid such a calamity, unless we show
that we are in earnest in asking for such an interpo
sition. Not that we would endorse the maxim that
"Heaven is always on the; side of the heaviest
battalions." That is an atheistic conceit. "The
battle is not always to the strong." Prayer to God,
however, without faith, is mockery, and faith with
out works is dead, and we might as well attempt to
oppose General Lee’s invading army with a legion
of dead men as undertake to move the arm of the
Almighty with a dead, hypooritioal faith. That was
' notable example of living faith} when the other
srday, ;after bowing their hearts in prayer for the
defence of our city and the preservation of our im
perilled |the clergy of this almost
en masse , marched in a body to the Mayor for the
purpose of tendering their services, in the trenches,
if necessary. We involuntarily contrast the patriots;
ism of these men with the act of that procession of;
priests which, we are told by Josephus and others, ;
once upon a time went out of Jerusalem to
meet the invader Alexander, and offer him their
salutations. The moral effect of ;thiß example,
even iS* it should result in nothing more, can
hardly be overestimated, and it adds another
striking proof of the self-sacrificing loyalty which,
with a few ignoble exceptions, has characterized
the ministers of the Gospel throughout the
North, since the commencement ofthew;ar. Such
offers, made as thiß was, irrespective of sect,
creed, or denomination, adds to the dignity of a
minister the honor ot a patriot. Nor ought the
most scrupulous non-resistant'object to the charac
ter of the service tendered in this caße, intended as
it was, to prevent the effusion of blood. The exam
ple and exhortations of these gentlemen have been
consistent, constant,'and in the main timely. For
what they intend doing to-day the reader is referred
to the notices in another part ‘of this paper, The
Nopn-day Union Prayer Meeting in the Common-
wealth Insurance Company Building, Chestnut
street above Sixth, will doubtless be an occasion of
unusual interest. To-morrOw, in accordance with
an appropriate request of the National Union
League, there.will be a numberof sermons preached
from the text of Scripture inscribed on the old
State-house bell: “Proclaim liberty throughout
all the land, unto all the inhabitants thereof;” a
suggestion, by the way, which was made by us in
the Religious column of Tffk Press, in the number of
June 12, 1853, in the following terms:
“Thisyearthe Fourth of July willcome on Sun
day, and why caDhot ‘the day we’celebrate ’ be
made the universal pulpit theme on that occasion—
not onlyin this city, but throughout the length and
breadth of our country! Such an expression of
Bible patriotism, poured forth from the sacred desk
in a prayerful spirit, that it might be ‘for the heal-,
ing of the nations,’ it seems to us would fall fungti
ously upon the discordant elements which unprinci
pled men have nurtured into being, and which dis-
tract ub as a people. The sacred volume is full of
texts that could be Introduced with striking signifi
cance as a basis for such a discourse, among which
we may be permitted to name the molten inscription
on the old State HoustTbell, now resting in the Hall
of Independence, viz: -
“‘Proclaim: Liberty throughout ALL the
" AT ll! TffE reHABITAHTa THmmgd— -
“What itten thousand clergymen in this country—
North, South, East, and West—Bhould act upon
this suggestion by preaching as many telling ser
mons [upon this doubly prophetic passage from
Leviticus xxv, 10, so peculiarly incorporated in the
annals of our * history 1 Certainly such a discourse
could not detract from the dignity of the pulpit,
v > and if performed in a thoroughly Bible, anti-secta
v rian spirit; who can doubt that the offering would
be acoepted and blessed at the hands of Him who
holds alike the destiny of nations and of indi
viduals i’*
This suggestion was kindly received and promptly
acted upon then, and, ooming *b it does now, clothed
with the sanction of an organization which has
earned for itself the respect and admiration of true
men everywhere, we doubt not that the response. to'
it will be general and salutary, the more bo as the
keynote of Libertyi* now, for the first time, being
Struck to its depths. Future generations will
wonder how it was that the people of this land
could bo long persist in misunderstanding the very
principle upon which we rested our boasted pecu
liarity as a nation, The scales are at last slowly
being rent from our eyeß, by the blows of war, and
by the help of God the day is not far dis tant when
the phrase, “Liberty throughout all the land,”
Will be more than a mere rhetorical ornament to
adorn Fourth of July speeches. There is evidently
but one alternative : either we will emerge from
this contest a nation of freemen or a nation of
slaves. The man who pretends to doubt this is
either a'traitor or a fool. Indifference, in a time
like the present, is constructive treason, and the man
■who is infected with it, or who instils it into others,
.should be avoided as a leper. Every man can be of
some service, and he who allows this opportunity
to pass without in some way lending his aid to the
Government, will be self condemned while he
and will leave a heritage of shame to his children
when he is dead. If we fail to strike now, prompt
ly, vigorously, and to do so as a heaven
imposed, religious duty, the “glory” which theelder
Adams saw through the gloom of ’76, will end in
blight, and Ichabod will be inscribed upon our dis
honored banners. Let us, therefore, have no jubilee
to-day, for it is a time of sorrow and sadness—re
membering that it was amid the revelry of a court,
whileNdrinking wine and praising the gods of gold,
and silver, and brass, and iron, and wood, and stone,
that the handwriting appeared to Belshazzar upon
the wall.
Dratk of Rev. J. W. .TTkomans, D. D.—lt la
"rith profound Borrow that we aonounce the decease
of the Rev. Dr. Yeomans, at his residence in Dan
ville, Pa., on the 22d ult, Wc have not learned the
disease by which hislife was terminated, .but as we
had not heard of his illness, we presume it very
speedily did its work. Dr. Yeomans was formerly
president of Lafayette College, 1 but for a number of
years has been the pastor of the Mahoning .Church
an Danville. His health recently has not been very
iP 1 ’ ® u ffbring, no doubt, from the sharp and serious
attack of illness whioh he had on his vißit to Colum
bus, Ohio. during the meeting of the Assembly there.
Dr. Y. waß a ripe scholar, an able preacher, an ear
nest Christian, and a most agreeable companion, and
}he vacancy will be mourned by many which he has
left in exchanging the toils and conflicts of earth for
the rest and pease of heaven.— Am. Presbyterian.
Affecting Service.— On a recent Sabbath after
noon, Rev. Dr. McLeod, of New York, adminis
tered the ordinance of baptism to three children of
one of our volunteers recently fell upon the
5» ? in his own church, in
Twelfth street. The widowed mother, still in youth,
hau made a profeßPion of religion since the death of.
nerbusband. Her three beautiful' children, two boys
and a girl, who received the name of “ Hope,” her
own composed yet distressed demeanor, and the allu
sions to the,death of her absent parent, which were
made by the pastor, all conspired to make the scene
very impressive. Many were melted into tears.
The Independent says: "This journal haa
of Strain a ? y !? ritiels w ror ita obituary notice
of Stonewall Jackson. We have been charged of
speaking too well of that brave man. But '
IS! 1 ! 61106 iH e true whiflll ffe hear reported

ly justified. The Herald of Progress. Spiritualist '
paper of this city, says that Stonewall Jackßon haa
become_an. abohtiomet since his death, and has
joined John Brown b phalanx of philanthropists.
.What will our cntics say now?” ■
The War.— TheHev. E. E. Adams, pastor of the
North Broad*street Church, says of this war • There
3b going on a mighty conflict in the world. The war
which has been waged by the invisible powers swellß
up into our view, and its waves dash on mortal
shores. Thiß conflict is for man, for mind, for souls,
for law, for religion, for the word of God, for the
vindication of Providence, for the kingly claims of
Messiah, and, who smtll not say it? por tub
slave!
Liberal,— On Sabbath morning last Rev. Dr.
Campbell, after Bennon,'stated the clAims of Rutgers
College to the congregation of the First Reformed
Dutch Church in Brooklyn (Rev.. Mr. Willeta , )» fol
lowed with iome eloquent remarks. The result was
a subscription on that day of four thousand- eight
hundred and fifty dollars, whioh will be largely in
creased.
Dnitraro the rebel raii> into Frederick, Md., on
last Sabbath, week, the Rev, Dr. Zacharias, pastor
of the German Reformed Church of that city pray
ed for “ the Preßident of the United States and all
others in authority,” while the rebels were racing
and riding through the streets. This was an act ot
noble heroism.
Church Extension.— The first Sabbath in July
Is the day set apart by the ] General Assembly for
the collection in behalf of Church Extension, in
those churches whioh have appointed no other day.
The Case of Captain Massey*
. The hero of the elopement with the Canadian
heiress, Mias MeTaviah, appears to be in the most
serious dilemma. A suit has been brought against
him by the relatives of the heiress, and another
spouse has exposed'him in the Court of Probate
and Divorce, London, June 18 :
M»B«ey VB. Ma«aey. The petitioner, who was
Mias Caroline Sarah Turner, was married to the re
spondent, Nathaniel William Maa«ey, on the 21at of
.Tune,' i 860.. He was a captain in the 30th foot.
There had been one child of the marrlaKe.'and the
cohabitation lasted till July, 1862.. The petitioner
sought a dissolution, on the ground of her husband’a
cruelty and adultery. ' “ ' '. '
The principal evidence in support of the .former
charge was that of Mrs. Maasey.heraelf. She said: ,
Our marriage waa a privateone, and waa kept se
cret from our respective families. I lived.with Capt.
Massey at various places ill England till the 16th of
July, 1861, when he went ~with Ms regiment to
Canada, At the time of my marriage I had £1,106
in money, £1,700 in Canada bonds, and upwards’of
■£4,000 in India bonds, a 1 of which I gave up, to him
at various times. Captain Massey returned from
Canada in June last. I lived with him till July,
. 1662, when we left London. On our wav from
London to Newhaven I Baw Captain Massey put
something into the guard’s hand, that we might
have the carriage alone. . I said I thought it
was pleasanter to have some one with us, and
he replied,’ “ I dare say you do," and used most
abusive language to me. He also struck me with
the back of. his hand in the face. From Newhaven
we crossed over to Dieppe; and, on N the morning of
the 17th, he beat me with a strap; he struck.me with
a pillow, and used abusive language. I called out
for mercy, and he then stopped. He then went down
to breakfast. After a time he came back, and asked
-me why I did not get up. I told him that I could
not move, and I asked him to let me rest; he -took
up the Btrap again, but, seeing that I was already
marked with it, he did not strike me. On the 19th
we went to Paris, and stayed at the Hotel de la
Prix. I went into hysterica on accountof his treat
ment of me; took me up, and threw me from one
end of the room to the other; he put me on the sofa,
and tried to Btifle my screams by putting his hand
on my mouth. He then opened one of my eyes, and
put some eau de cologne in it. On the 2ist we went
to Havre. There he threw water into my face. He
abused every member of my family, and said that his
mother despised me. I said she did not more than I
despised her. Capt;Ma«sey leftme at Havre. I showed
the servant at the hotel the marks which he had
given me by blows and pinohing. On his return the
servant told him Lb ad been very dull. When she
left the room he oomplained of my speaking to her.
He Btruek me several times at Havre, and spat in :
my face. He told me that I was mad, and that I
wasalunatio. On one occasion when he came in
he found-me with Mrs. Atkins, and he said he
v wouldnot have me speak to anybody. He then told
me to ring the bell. I said that as he was so near it
he could do it himself. He then strode across the
room, dragged me off the seat, put the bell rope into
my hand, and made me ring it. He finished by pul
ling my noße and ears. The same night he called
me by his bedside and told me to sit down. He said,
"Now, Caroline, I think you will own that I have
succeeded in treating you very oruelly since I have
been with you on the Continent”. I said, "Yes,
you have succeeded." He then Baid, "Now listen
to me. It is not in my power to treat you
more cruelly than I have done; but if you don’t
sign a paper that I want you to sign, you shall go
with me to Trueville on Friday, aad undergo tor
tures you have not yet suffered. You shall be.
treated as a lunatic, have a nurse, and a doctor
shall come to see you twice a week. I shall give
you a month of that treatment, and if you don’t
sign the paper at the end of that time I will put you
in the lunatic asylum, and give the physician one
thousand pounds when he tells me of your death.
I will give you till 9 o’clock tomorrow morning .to
say whether you will sign or not." I laid my hand
on his shoulder and said, " Surely, you cannot be so
wicked!” He clenched his fist and said, "By all
the powers of heaven and hell I will! I have never
yet been, baulked." The next morning the paper
was prepared. He made me write a part of it and
sign it. I afterwards destroyed it. He. left me
again alone, and I quitted Havre without seeing
him. • .
Mrs. Massey’s evidence was corroborated by the
Bervant.
THE POLIGB.
[Before Mr. Alderman Battler.]
A Sgiisd of Professionals.
Yesterday afternoon a number of professional
thieves were arraigned at the Central Station, per'
order of the Chief of the Detective Police. They
were arrested by Messrs. Gh H. Smith and Joshua
Taggert, who had received orders to do so. The
following are the names and alias'es of the prisoners:
Peter Lewis, alias Pete Lynch, Ohnrlcs Williams,
■ alias Jacob Carpenter, James Carr, Alexander
Welsh, Henry Stafford,-alias. Morris Harris the
Sherry, John Williams, alias Jim King, Joseph
, Keyser, alias -Kid, William Biley, alias A 1 Biley,
George Jumpß alias Paul Clifford, alias Jerry Eaton,
Michael Cooley, Joseph Page, alias Dutch Ahern.
Of the whole of these young men, the officers con
sider Keyser the most adroit pickpocket in the'
country. He was dressed with a white cravat, and
his sanctimonious appearance would enable him to
pass for a young minister. ’
Mr. Joshua Kißterbock, who was robbed of four
41,000 treasury notes on Wednesday evening, upon
the arrival of some rebel prisoners at-Broad and
Cherry streets, was present at the hearing. He
scrutinized the party well, and, upon being asked
whether hecould recognize any of the party as having
been present at the arrival of the prisoners, as stated,
he replied that he thought-two or three faces were
familiar to him, but he could not locate them.
Joshua Taggert, on being sworn, said the prisoners
are all professional thieves'; one or two being seat
for, came to the office, the remainder were arrested
in different places in the city.
The prisoners were ordered to enter bail in the
Bum of $7OO each to await another hearing on next
Monday, to be of future good behavior and to keep
the peaoe.
[Before Mr. Alderman White.}
Scries of Charges.
Hugh McCann is the name given by a young man
who was arraigned yesterday.before Police Magis
trate White, of the Fifth ward, on the charge of lar
ceny, trespass, and assault and battery. It 1 seems
irom the evidence that some time since a colored
man died, leaving behind him considerable personal
property. McCann lived next door. A tew days
since, it is alleged that he and three other boys
forced their way into the house, and helped them
selves to the personal effects of the deceased colored
man. They also broke open a trunk belonging to a
woman named Jane West, and took therefrom a
considerable number of articles. It is alleged also
that they beat her badly, from the effects of which
she has not yet fully recovered. The magistrate,
after hearing all the facts, bound the defendant over
to answer the three charges as specified.
Civil Business.
; Notwithstanding we have war within the borders
of Pennsylvania, yet there is a considerable amount
of civil business transacted daily, as any one may
see who visits the office of Alderman White, on Li
brary street, This gentleman is often sent for from
various parts of the city to transact such civil busi
ness as an alderman is empowered to do. He U al
ways pleasant, and has the happy qualification of
blending gentlemanly deportment with his official
ÜBiness.
[Before Mr. Alderman Haines. ]

Germantown road, live two women, a mother and
daughter, named Margaret Smith and Mary Kelly.

ferocious attack upon Mrs. Kelly and stabbed her in
the breast with a pitch-fork, thereby producing a
painful, though not a very dangerous, wound. The
screams of the wounded womanjbrorightassistance,
and Mrs. Smith waß taken into, custody. Yester
day morning the charge was heard against her be
fore Alderman Haines, who committed her to pri
son.
[Before Mr. Alderman Massey.j
Alleged Horse Thief.
A man, giving the name of George White, hailing
from New York, was arraigned before Alderman
Massey yesterday morning, on the charge of steal
ing a horse, the property of the United States Go
vernment. The animal was one of a drove belong
ing to the remnant of General Milroy’s train that
arrived in West Philadelphia a few days since. The
accused was required to find bail to answer.
Police Officers Beaten.
The vicinity of Twenty-fifth and Pine streets was
the scene of a disgraceful disturbance on Thursday
evening. Three officers of the police—Messrs.
Newcomb. Yanhorn and, McKinney—interposed to
preserve the peace, and were driven off, the last
named being rather seriously cut about the bead.
The participants in the fracas were mostly laboring
under the effect of liquor.

Philadelphia, Hay 90, 18631
If. C. Sadler, Esq., Agent for Lillie's Safes :
Dear Sir : During the night of May 19. 1863, our Gro
cery and Provision Store, at North Second and Willow
streets, took five at about 2 o'clock A. SI., and as the
store was a two-story wood building it burnt rapidly,
and before ihe fire-engines could act upon the fire, our
whole stock of goods, including much combustible ma
terial, and amounting to over $2,000, were wholly de
stroyed. We had one of your No. 11 Chilled Iron Safes,
which was in the hottest part of the fire, and'it came out
of the fire pot in the least injured, except the melting off
of the name, plate and paint. The- contents inside were
not affected in the least, and we consider the Safe just as
good a protection against fire now as before, ana shall
nee it hereafter with increased- confidence. The lock
works as perfectly as before the fire.
lours truly, -McMANUS A CROFT,
-.Late 4»B/North SECOND Street
Attention to-the above certificate Is particularly re
quested, as it is the first trial of LILLIE'S SAFES man
accidental fire in Philadelphia.
I would say: to all parties who want a Fire *-»d
Burglar-proof Safe that LILLIE S WROUGHT AND
CHILLED SAFES are much the cheapest and the
only real Fire and Burglar-proof Safes now made; and
to those who want simply a Fire-proof, I would say that
LILLIE’S WROUGHT IRON SAFE is folly equal in all
respects to any of the most-approved makers, and is
sold at fully one-third less price.’
I also, am receiving daily in exchange for Lillis’*
Wrought and Chilled Iron' Safes other Safes, aud keep
constantly on hand a general assortment of HERRING’S,
EVANS & WATSON’S, and other makers, many of them
almost new, which I oner at, and even below, auction
. prices. ■—
An parties interested are particularly requested to ex
amine the Safeß above described at my dep&t.
