PRESBYTERIAN.
The Synod of Kentucky, 0. S., held its regular
meeting two weeks ago, and was fully attended.
With Dr. Breckinridge at its head, it is trying very
hard to maintain a “conservative” position. It
gravely disapproved the action of the late General
Assembly as requiring or advising “Sots of disobe
dience to actual Governments, by those under the
power of those Governments; and still further, it
was neither wise nor discreet for the Assembly of
the whole Church to disregard, in its action, the dif
ficulties and dangers, -which render it impossible for
large portions of the Church to obey its order, with
out being liable to the highest penalties.”
The Synod “ contents itself with this expression
of its grave disapprobation of this action of the Ge
neral Assembly (whifih thuSytrtJd judges to he re
pugnant to the Word of God, as that Word is ex
pounded in our Confession of Faith)."
As to the schism now taking place, they say among
other things: “While, In this deplorable schism,
this Synod sees a sad proof of the wont of wisdom
in that aotion of the Assembly, which has been a
chief pretext of it, it decidedly condemns the schism
itself—as being without sufficient justification, and
in its results portentous of incalculable evil. Am!
as concerning the posture of this Synod, it seems
timely to declare, that it adheres, with unshaken
purpose, to the Presbyterian Church in the United
States of America’, and hereby enjoins upon all its
members, and upon all who are under its control and
care, to avoid all divisive and schismatical courses,
to cultivate the peace of the Church, and to prac
tice great mutual forbearance.”
The Louisville Presbyterian Herald says that Dr.
Breckinridge's speech on the resolution “ was of the
most conciliatory character, exhorting the churches
to stand together until the war is over, and not to
allow their political differences to rend them asun
der, or even to excite bickerings and heart-burnings
between theif members. Presbyterian preachers,
the Dr. remarked, are a hard-headed set of men,
who will do and think pretty much as they please,
no matter what the circumstances may be which sur
round them. Those who are secessionists will gene
rally remain so, and those who are Union men will
continue so, let things go as they will. It does not
matter much about theqi. If affairs in the State do
not. go to suit them, they can pack up their traps
and move off to some place more congenial to them.
But it is not so with the churches. You can not
move them. They own the soil, and must generally
remain upon it—go where it goes, and stay where it.
stays. The War must have an end sooner ot later.
All things earthly have an end some time or other.
The churches, therefore, should cling together, at
great sacrifice, and not allow themselves to be split
up by differences in regard to the war, so that they
will be ready to go forward, without let or hindrance,
in the great work assigned to them when it doses.
We give simply the spirit of the Dr.’s speech, not
its language, nor the arguments in detail employed
iait.”
The Synod of WiscQnsia*(O.S.),took the fol
lowing action at its recent, meeting, on Slavery and
the “Spring” Resolutions: In reviewing the past
history and deliverances of the Presbyterian Church,
and its uniform tendency, for nearly a century,
against African slavery, as “a gross violation of the
most precious and sacred rights of human nature,”
and as “ utterly inconsistent with the law of God;”
and its declaration that it is the duty of Christians
"to use their honest endeavors to efface this blot on
oar holy religion, and to obtain the complete aboli
tion of slavery throughout Christendom, and, if pos
sible, throughout the world - ” We see no reason to
depart from these, or any other testimonies of our
Church on this subject, but, on the contrary, to
avow our satisfaction with all those testimonies; and
in reference to the late action of the General Assem
bly, in adopting the resolutions of the Rev. Dr.
Spring on the State of our Country; and also in its
exceptions to the records of the Synod of South Ca
rolina, this Synod does not see any justification for
the schismatic'and unseriptural course of those Pres
byteries in the South who have declared their sepa
tion from the Assembly, and are attempting to di
ride the Church.
Departure of ©ssfonaries.— The ship Po-yang,
which sailed for Hong Kong on the 26th, took out
a party of missionaries, consisting of the Rev. Messrs.
George, Roberts and Janvier, with their wives and
families. They go out under the auspices of the
Presbyterian Board. A number of clergymen were
present to bid them God-spebd in their work, and
some very interesting exercises took place.
Hey, S. Woodbridge, D.D., for the past twelve
rows pastor of the 0. S. Presbyterian Church inße
tioia, Cal., wo are informed, has accepted a nomina
ti.on for the Legislature from the secession party of
Solano County. In Benicia, his trustees have re
signed, choir given up singing, Sunday-school left,
EPISCOPAL
Assistant Bishop of the Diooese of Pennsyl
y&nia.— At a special convention, held in this city
W week, Rev. W. Bacon Stevens, D. D„ rector of
Andrew’s Churoh, Philadelphia, was, on the
13th ballot, elected Assistant Bishop, in place of
■Bishop Bowman, recently deceased. Dr. Stevens
B6 out of 119 votes cash The Bw says:
consequence of an unfounded rumor relative to
loyalty of Dr. Stevens, which had gained con
siderable currency since the meeting of the conven-
K ’ n ' the lay members of tbe body expressed them
,ts desirous of some official information which
’right counteract the evil influence at work- When
’he name of Francis R. Brunot, of Pittsburg, (the
r,t of the laity, in alphabetical order,) was called,
?, at gentleman arose and addressed tbe Bight Rev.
tHop Potter, who oeoupied the chair, requesting
s ° me declarations as to the loyally of the nominee
t ‘ clergy.
The Reverend Bishop answered that, so far as
he was informed, Dr. Stevens was entirely loyal.”
Dr. Stevens, we believe, is a Virginian, mid has
the reputation of being Evangelical in his views.
His standing as a clergyman has been veiy high in
this city.

The General Theological Seminary of the P.
E. Church at New York has. for some time, been
laboring under very great embarrassments. Trinity
Corporation refuses, says the Church Journal, to
give a single dollar for the relief of that noble In
stitution in its distress. Only ,/me churches in New
York city and Brooklyn have yet given anything;
of the lay Trustees of the Seminary—about one
hundred and fifty in number—mo* one has given
anything, except only Mr. Floyd Smith, of New
York, and Dr. Sbattuck, of Boston; and
while Trinity Corporation cannot give a dollar—
owing to what Bishop De Laneey happily called
“her immense poverty”—a South Carolina lady
has sent in fifty dollars; a donation deservedly ho
nored with the only “applause" we have ever heard
in that Board for anything.- : ,

Chaplains in the Southwest.— The Central
Christian Advocate describes the chaplains of that
region as follows: — .
“Bro. Pile is now (Saturday, 7th,) in the city.
Hewas in the thickest of the battle near Spring
field, just as he was at Boonvifle, rallying the men,
gathering stragglers, facing the fire, and encouraging
or threatening any timid ones, and actually doing
feats of valor. He now goes into the artillery. He
was urged to take charge of the battery, but he de
clined, and remains chaplain, and when the war is
over, will continue his wprk as a circuit preacher.
.Still, Pile will be at the battery, and everywhere
else, where there i$ need of band ; service, or ex
posed and dangerous assaults. When the, rations
were badly managed in his regiment he took hold,
arranged for better cooking, regularity in the
rations, and in a mouth or less; all was in perfect
order, and the blessings of the poor soldiers were
heaped on him without stint Every man in his re
giment would face any danger with Pile, who says,
come on, and when he does say go, it is sure tube a
go indeed. He was selected, in company with two
officers, to convey the remains of Captain Grata to
Lexington, Ky., by way of Cincinnati, who was
killed in the battle where Lyon fell. He has still
the horse that General Lyon gave him for his use,
and he will retain the animal for his circuit service.
Bro. Shumate, after preaching in Jefferson City
for several weeks, was solicited by Gen. Grant to
accompany a detachment of several hundred men to
ward Rolla, Lebanon and Springfield, so as to ascer
tain the movements of the enemy. He performed
this service to purpose. He captured several seces
sionists, and disarmed them by his own personal
bravery, being well equipped with rifle and pistols,
and delivered them up to the powers that be. He
knew the country, as it was within the bounds of his
district, and the men in it, and few secessionists in
that region would be willing to face him, though
they were three or more to one. Though hunted
for weeks in May and June last, Mr. Shumate, with
the guarantee of his two rifles and his pistols, and
proper ambushes, saved his life, to offer it to the
support of his country. Gen. Grant calls loudly for
his services as chaplain, and he cannot and will not
refuse. When the old thirty-four stars float over
Orleans, , and Missouri is pacified, he will then go to
work to re-organize the M. E. Church in Missouri.
There is now a noble hand of chaplains from the
M. E. Church in the army of the Southwest, espe
cially in Missouri. The Missouri Conference gives
five chaplains in the army, viz.: Messrs. Brooks,
Huffman, Pile, Shumate, and Oyler. These know
the country, and will be of infinite service to the
army; besideS' ttheir Valuable labors as-chapiains.
They will be the special guides for the army, and the
counselors of the officers, as well as the brothers of
the soldiers.
Chaplains must he Ordained Ministers— lt
has been understood that while the army regulations
require ordination in all chaplains of the army, a
license to preach, granted by a church, would he ac
cepted in lieu of ordination. But a stricter con
struction is now applied, and an order has been
issued from the War Department, directing that
every unordained chaplain he “mustered out” of
the service, and that no other chaplain be “muster
ed in,” without regular ordination, as a minister of
the gospel.
Qualifications of Chaplains.—The Army Com
mittee of the Y. M. Chris. Association.' of this city,
' mving addressed a letter on the subject of incompe
tent chaplains, Mr. P. B. Simons, the chairman,
has received the following very gratifying reply:—
“Sir: —In reply to your communication of 3d
instant, desiring- to know whether any method can
be adopted of ridding the army of immoral chap
lains, I am directed to say that any person who has
been mustered into service as a chaplain, who is not
a regular ordained clergyman of a Christian denomi
nation, will be at once discharged without pay or al
lowance. Every one now mustered must be certified
to as being a regularly ordained clergyman, as above
stated.
“ I am, sir, very respectfully, your ob’t serv’t,
“Geo. D. Boggles, Assist. Adj’t Gen.”
Ministers in the War.—Rev. H. J. Parker,
formerly chaplain of the Second New Hampshire
Regiment, has accepted an appointment as Major of
the Seventh Regiment. Rev. A. W. Taylor, of
the Pittsburg Conference, has recruited a company,
called the Beaver Guards, and is now in Camp Fre
mont. Rev. Charles Cook, Baptist clergyman at
West Gardiner, Me., has enlisted as a private in the
Eleventh Maine Regiment. He is a native of Balti
more, where his Mends now reside.
Mrs. R. H. Brown, authoress of the hymns com
menting “I love to steal awhile away,” “How
sweet the melting lay,” “Go, messenger of love,
and bear,” and “Jesus, this mid-day hour of pray
er,” died at the residence of her son-in-law, Elijah
Smith, in Henry, 111., October 10th, aged 78 years
5 months and 10 days. Her end was peace. Her
husband preceded her by seven years, and sleeps
in death, as one of Christ’s saints, at Monson, Mass.
The mother of four children, she bad the happiness
of seeing them all usefully settled in life. Of these,
the only son is a missionary to Japan; two of the
daughters married ministers, and the third a Pres
byterian elder. The late Rev. D. M. Lord was h:r
son-in-law by his first marriage.
Forty-five years ago Mrs. B. wrote the popular
tract, “ Poor Sarah, or the Indian Woman,” and
the favorite hymn, “Hove to steal awhile away.”
She is the author of a catechism for children, much
used in New England, and also of two /small vo
lumes suited to Sunday school libraries, named
‘‘The Village School,” and “The Tree and its
Fruits.”—Cor. JV. Y. Observer.
Catholic Chaplains in the Army.—At the so
licitation of Governor Curtin, Right Rev. Bishop
Wood has forwarded to Harrisburg the names of
several Catholic Chaplains for Pennsylvania Regi
ments, the object being to place them in the Army.
On Wednesday a commission was sent from the
Executive to Rev. M. F. Martin, of the Cathedral,
who has been appointed Chaplain in Col. Owen’s
Regiment. He left last evening for the seat of war.
Other commissions will probably be tendered to
other clergymen within a few days. .
Bev. S. H. Rosecrans, a brother of the General,
is pastor of a Catholic Church at Cincinnati, and
editor of thb Telegraph, the organ of Archbishop
Purcell.

MISCELLANEOUS.
THE NORTH.
Thanksgiving in Pennsylvania. —Governor
Curtin has recommended Thursday, the 28th of No
vember, next, as a day of “solemn thanksgiving to
God, for having prepared our com, and watered
our furrows, and blessed the iabors of the husband
man, and crowned, the year with His goodness; in
the increase of the ground and the gathering in of
the fruits'thereof, so that our bams are filled with
plenty; and for having looked favorably on this
Commonwealth and strengthened the bars of her
gates and blessed the children within her, and made
men to be of one mind, and preserved peace in her
borders. Beseeching Him, also, on behalf of these
United States, that our beloved country may have
deliverance from -these great' and apparent dangers
she is compassed, and that He will mer
citully still the outrage of perverse, violent, unruly
and rebellious people, and make them clean hearts,
and renew a right spirit within them, and give them
grace that they may see the error of their ways, and
bring forth fruits meet for repentance, and hereaf
ter, in all godliness and honesty, obediently walk in
His holy commandments, and in submission to the
just and manifest authority of the republic, so that
we leading a quiet and peaceable life, may continu
ally offer unto Him our sacrifice of praise and thanks
giving. ,
The Blanket Question.- —ln response to several
correspondents, we give the following, as our under
standing of the recent appeal of the Government for
blankets and socks of the army:
1. There has been no suffering on the part of the
soldiers yet for these necessaries. The appeal was
made to avert a contingency which might occur, and
to supply a small present demand.
2. The purchase of blankets in Europe was found
to be necessary to check exorbitant speculation on
this side, and because our woolen manufacturers
could not supply the demand in time to prevent a
danger of the men suffering, and, while desirous of
spending the money only m this country, govern
ment did not feel Hike running any risk where the:
comfort of the troops was concerned.—JY T. World.
, The West Chester Jeffersonian and the Chris
tian observer. —The Postmaster General has is
sued the following order in regard to these treasona
ble papers:—“lt appearing to this Department that
the Jeffersonian, a newspaper published at West
Chester, Pennsylvania, and the Christian Observer,
published at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, are used
for the purpose of overthrowing the Government of
the United States, and .are giving aid and comfort to
the enemies now at war with the United States, it
is ordered that said papers be excluded from all the
post offices and mails of the United States until fur
ther orders.” It has been sent to the postmasters
of Chester and Delaware counties, and to all other
offices where these papers may be sent.
Telegraphic Communication with the Pa
cific. —The telegraphic line between New York and
San Francisco has been completed, and the first mes
sage was received October 25th. Cape Race is how
within two hours of the Golden Horn, by continu
ous wire five thousand miles in length. It is pro
posed to extend this line Westward by Behring’s
.Straits, to the Amoor river. This will connect Ame
rica with Europe via Moscow and through lines,
either already built or projected, with all the impor
tant points in China, India, Jeddo in Japan, and
even Melbourne, in Australia.
New York Harbor and Lake Defences. —The
governor has been in consultation with Col. Dela
field, of the United States Engineer Corps, respect
ing the harbor and lake defenses. The lake coast
will be speedily examined and prepared for defense.
New York has about 800 men employed in this work
already,-and has had for some time-past. * Therpare
500 at Sandy Hook, and 300 ait work upon Fort
Richmond, Staten Island, and the barracks adjoin
ing upon the Hill.' Guns in both places have been
and will be, placed in position for harbor defense.
VIRGINIA AND THE POTOMAC.
The Fight at Ball’s Bluff was accompanied
with serious loss to our troops. The whole affair
seems to have been mismanaged. Further details
represent tbe defeat as much more disastrous than
was at first supposed. The California Regiment suf
fered terribly, only about one-fourth of their mem
bers having returned safe from the engagement.
Large numbers belonging to the several regiments
were drowned in attempting to swim the river.
Later intelligence reports that General Stone’s di
vision had recrossed to the Maryland side, thus sur
rendering all that had been gained. The loss in
killed, wounded, and missing is over 600. Many do
not understand why the attempt should have been
made to cross without a sufficient and properly-sup
ported force, nor why the means of transportation
should have been so inadequate as they were. The
loss of Colonel Baker, the statesman and soldier,
and so many excellent soldiers, who fought bravely
but vainly against a superior force, is felt to be a
serious calamity, and has caused deep sadness
throughout the land, and especially in Philadelphia
and neighborhood, where many of the families and
friends of the California regiment reside. The fune
ral of Colonel Baker took place on Thursday, Oct.
24th, in Washington. The procession was large and
impressive, the military making a fine appearance.
Among those who followed the remains to the Con
gressional Cemetery were the President, heads of
departments, and a number of gentlemen from the
Pacific coast, including Senators Latham and M ‘Don
gal. General Scott attended the funeral services at
Major Webb’s residence. Tbe sermon was delivered
by Rev. Byron Sunderland, chaplain to the Senate.
Election t in Western Virginia,—The election
for a division of the State, as ordered by an ordi
nance of tbe last Convention, came off throughout
Western Virginia on,tbe 24th ult. The vote in this
city (Wheeling) and county is not Ml, but is over
whelmingly for the division. The reports from the
interior, aA far as received, show a still greater una
nimity. Thirty-nine counties are included in the
new State. 1
Discontent. —Reliable information from Virginia
reports that discontent is general among not only tbe
troops but all classes in Eastern Virginia. The ru
mors of foreign intervention relative to the bloekade
are understood at Washington as being the invention
of cotton speculators. ,
Rebel Defeat at Romney.—Gen. Kelly attacked
tbe rebels at Romney, October 26tb, drove in their
outposts, and after a brilliant action of two hours,
completely routed them, taking all their cannon and
much of their camp equipage, and many prisoners.
Our loss is but trifling, but cannot say to what ex
tent
The Fatal Order.—The following is the order
sent by General Stone to Colonel Baker, previous
to the engagement in which the latter lost bis life:
Sir: So soon as you get your forces in position
make a dash at Leesburg, and shoot down any law
less depredator that may leave the ranks. General
Gorman is moving up on the left, and I expect to
be in possession of Leesburg to-night. Stone.
The total loss, killed, wounded and missing, in
the battle of Ball's Bluff, was 953.
THE SOUTH.
The Attack on the Federal Fleet. —Correct
intelligence has also been received of the recent at
tack upon the Federal fleet at New Orleans. The
naval force of the rebels consisted of six gun-boats,
the ram Manassas, and a large number of fire-ships.
The United States fleet consisted of the U. S.
steamers Richmond, Huntsville, Water Witch,
tioope-of-war Preble and Vincennes, and store-ship
Nightingale. The fleet, when ittaoked, were at an
chor inside of the S. W. Pass. The ram Manassas
came down and drifted foul of the Richmond,
knocking a hole in her quarter And stem, doing but
little damage. To avoid the fire-ships, the squadron
immediately got under weigh, and drifted down the
river. The Richmond, Preble; and Vincennes got
ashore on the bar, (the Nightingale also went
ashore,) and while ashore were attacked by the re
bels, but without doing any damage to the vessels
or life in any respect. But One shot took effect, and
that struck the Richmond On*'the quarter. They
were beaten off by the Vincennes with two guns,
she having hove overboard thfe rest of her arma
ment, with her chains, &u. to lighten her,
she being much exposed to Athe rebel fire. The
squadron has no one killed or wounded. The Rich
mond, Preble, and Vincennes were towed off the
same day by the steamship McClellan, which oppor
tunely arrived. The Nightingale also will be got off.
Fight at Santa Rosa Island.—By arrivals from
Pensacola, we have full details .of the rebel attack
upon Wilson’s Zouaves. It Appears that the latter
were partially surprised, and their Camp fell into the
hands of the rebels, who burned .it. Being rein
forced, however, by a body of regulars from Fort
Pickens, the fight was renewed, and the Confederate
troops were driven to their boats. The volunteers
were badly managed, and Colonel Wilson is veiy
much censured for the inefficiency and Want of skill
displayed in the action. He did not arrive at the
scene of action until all was over. The Sixth Regi
ment lost 10 killed, 10 wounded and 9 prisoners; the
regulars lost Skilled, 20 wouyded and 10 prisoners.
The rebels lost, by their owfr stltfement, 350 killed,,
wounded and missing. WfFtduk piisohdrs, iti
cluding 3 doctors, who"*6re'ijs(§i&£
lost nine men killed in thgirlfenipj and eleven taken
prisoners. -
News from Key West' report the capture of the
Confederate steamer Salvor, hound from Havanato
some Southern port with contraband goods. An
other vessel is said to be loading at Havana. The
cargo of the Salvor consisted of 600 pistols, 500,000
percussion caps, 600 dozen hats, 8 cases shoes,
400,000 segars, 400 bags coffee, cases of dry goods,
&c. The crew informed the captors that eases of
arms were secreted under the edal.
MISSOURI AND THE WEST.
A Brigade of Pennsylvania, troops recently arriv
ed in Louisville. The Democrat thus speaks of it:
“This Brigade is composed, of some of the finest
looking men we have seen anywhere, all large,
healthy, able-bodied men, in excellent health and
fine spirits. The three regiments comprising the
brigade are the Seventy-seventh, under command of
Colonel Hambright„.ni»e the ten'companies hav
ing been recruited in Latfekster county; the Seven
ty-eighth, under Colonel Stambaugh, which has
been some time in camp at Chambersburg, and the
Seventy-ninth, under Colonel Sirwell, from Kittan
ning. The ifien are all finely uniformed and armed,
and repose the utmost confidence in their officers. ”
Exchange of Prisoners.—A detachment from
General McClernand’s command proceeded from
Cairo to Columbus, Ky.,. bn Wednesday, for the
purpose of exchanging sixteen prisoners. Generals
Polk and Pillow received'the party cordially, and
the exchange was effected.. It wa’s ascertained that
the rebel force at Columbus does not exceed 10,000
men. The town is well' fortified, and two forts are
being built about a mile and a half outside.
Defeat at Pilot Knob.— Jeff. Thompson’s forces,
numbering about 6000, .were badly defeated by the
Federal troops at Pilot Knob, recently. The latest
accounts say that they were pursued twenty-two
miles, and that'they were completely demoralized
and would probably continue their retreat, The de
tachment sent out to l|iiy the dead found nearly
two hundred rebels killed, and left on the field. The
Fremont’s Body Guard—A dispatch from St.
Louis states that General Fremont’s body guard had
attacked and totally routed a rebel force of more than
2000 near Springfield. The advance of Fremont’s
army was expected to reach Springfield on Saturday
night.
The pursuit of Prie#|is still vigorously kept up,
and there is every probability that be will either
have .to fight or he cut off.
NAVAL.
The Southern Expedition. This expedition,
which recently left Hampton Hoads for the Southern
coast, has been in preparation for months, and is ad
mirably organized and, appointed. It comprises,
transports and all, about eighty vessels, of all sizes,
from colossal steam-frigates down to the jauntiest
little gunboats; and carry,-with their full crews,
over, thirty thousand soldiers, a large force of engi
neers, mechanics and laborers, and an immense sup
ply of all the materials of war, every means of attack
and occupation which.mdjtary art can invent or mo
ney supply. The enterprise is one of the most for
midable of the kind has seen, since the
invention of gunpowder. I '-fit is larger in men and
more complete in its appointments, than most of the
naval expeditions which history records, and doubt
less will accomplish grand results. Its point of des
tination is entirely unknown. -
Items.— Large supplies of liquor have been lately
shipped to Washington from New York, Philadel
phia, and Boston, but it is not allowed to reach the
Army of the Potomae. In the battle near Lees
burg, it is said, that our soldiers “fought like
tigbrs.”——The State Department has information
that Mason and Slidell escaped through Mexico,
and. not from any Southern port.- —-In little more
than a month the second session of the Thirty
seventh Congress will convene, and the Senate and
House have 1 been completely renovated preparatory
thereto. : Government is about to open extensive
hospital accommodations in Philadelphia for sick
and wounded soldiers, and that the inmates of hos
pitals at Washington city will be removed hither.

The Expedition.— October 28.—One hundred
thousand rations have been distributed among the
Regiments this afternoon,* preparatory to departure.
, The captains of the transports received their
sealed orders to-day. It is reported that one of
them has opened his orders, and divulged the des
tination of the fleet.
The men and animals on board the transports
have suffered greatly during the gale of the last two
days.
