Otnktention of this bodkin New
York city is much agitated by questions growing
out of the rebellion. Loyal men in the body require
that arl'uttequivoeal position be taken to*ards the
rebellion, and etkedially towards Bishop Polk, who
abandoned his ministerial position in order to tilt()
a high military command in the rebel army. Thd
ease of Bishop." Wilmer of Alabama, made a
bishop by nfragno3nt of the Church since the seM`
oration, is also in hand. Suitable prayers for the
crisis are also demanded and a great mash of bpai 7
nes6 under ibis:head, being forinciPallYAn the lands
of a committee, waits at this writing , for final ad
judication.
Speciat lonians for the country were( held in the
Trinity Church on Wednesday morning' 00. & The
prayers eMployed are lamentably .deficient in tlieir
tone. Hdre are the strongest sentences we can cull
from them.
"We bemeeh Thee so to sanctify unto us our
prdent * distress, And so to make haste to, deliver
us, that war shall be no more in all our borders, and
that all resistancetto the'lawful Government of the
land shall utterly cease. May our brethren who
seek the dipmemberment of our 'National Union,
Under'whieh this people, by thy ii,rovidence, have
been so signally prospered and blessed, be convinced
of thoir error and restored to a better mind. Grant
that all bitterness, and wrath., and anger, and malice
may be put away froth them and us, and that Ivo=
theily love and renews* may be establisherrameng
us to all generations." 4, 4 ' " - We humbly , be
seech Thee, of thine:Mt:ate Morey, to appease the
tumults among us, to bring
,to an end the dreadful
Strife which is now raging in our land, and to re.
store peace to our afflicted country, . And twe most
humbly beseech Thee to, grant to all of us zrace to
walk henceforth obediently in Thy holy command
ments, and in due subjection to the power that .is
from Thee, so that, leading a quiet and a peaceable
life in all godliness and honesty, we may continually
offer unto Thee our sacrifice of ptiiliurand Menke;

Loyal area may wellinquire in amazement if tins'
is all that.the venerable chief pastors of the Episeo-
Pal Church 4n find. it in their hearts to ask for
their couutry at this time ? . .
The Triennial 00)3Tel:site)), "oi' the Episcopal
Church on the war. —The Triennial Convention
was "disturbed" on the third day of the Session, by
a Mr.:Brinot of Pennsylvada, who had just re
turned hem the battle field , near Sharpobarg, and
Who, out of a full heart, offered strong resolutions
egainst the rebellion, and calling upon the Bishops
to frame a prayer in accordance with the same. Al
'moot immediately the resolutions were tabled bY the
overwhelming vote of 28 to 9; almost thicie,m One.
The ill effect, of such , action was, however, speedily
perceivedilowd a, proposal to reconsider was offered
and debated at.great length. Judge. Chambers of
Cheotertown,bld., hoped.no firebrand would be in
troduced merely to please public- opinion outside.
lion. Washington Hunt.of N. Y. on; the same side
said : "Before high heaven he could boldly pro
claim that day,`that the Chureh was free from the
raPottallatY of blood;:and. if all religious denona
nations had followed our example, there would
havebeen nO war, and we should now have been
one country,, N
Hon. Murray Hoffman offered a series of reooln
tions With the true patriotic , ring in theni, referring
to the seceded pOrflon of the Episcopal Church in
the following manner :
Resolved, That the Protestant EpiscoPaLChureh
in the United States of America is alone the parti
cular or natl.:Mal Church finial who have acknow
ledged themselves its members.
.Risolved, That in the opinion of this House; all
ministers and other persons who have united the
acts and proceedings before set forth, [acts of
Ecclesiastical secession] have fallen into the sin of
disobedience to the Church. .
The resolutions also call for prayer, in unmistake
able language,- for the success , of the government
in auPPressing the rebellion. Judge Chambers was
very much incensed at the resolution. .He said:
" It was with deep and heartfelt regret he heard a
lay deputy' Oar thaiierles et Reedutions charging
with dark and damnable crime, of which we are to
pronounee them446/Calfhele cocoon of our fel
low Churchmen, with clergy hy the:hundreds, and
Rt. Rev. Fathers who have sat in our chancels:—
all in one mass are to be denoutteed as vile sinners.
We who have friends among these fl ners,—bone
of our bone, flesh of our flesh, blood ofoor blood—
we are to. raise our hands to God and ask, His curses
on their heads I"
On the'other side, Rev. Dr. Vinton media most
able and-vigorous appeal for some proper action on
the part of the Convention. He said : " The men
who stood arrayed against the church and country
ought to heti° . been, and might have been, in the
Performance of their duty, the conservators of oar
national unity. It
,Was,the duty, of that body, as in
trusted with tee, keeping at the °birch, te' rebuke
those who had offendod;"

ad in a calm,. philosophical and exhaustive argu
ment. He proceeded to answer every question
raised' against the resolution,' `aitd said that the
adoption of a prayer'for the country in which they
nau id all unite was,demanded at that moment. He
said : Genesal Convention had been marked by an
u n failing eararteeY, , testridning itself from all action
that might watuul the ' feelings of Southern, men.
But what had we gained by 'it 7 Had, it saved
from disruption and bobtail?
However, the motion' for reconsideration of Mr.
Brunet; resolution was lost, but by a much leas
decisive vote than that Which at first tabled the pro
posals ' rE 4
Next day, the subject again came up, in its length
and breadth Judge Carpenter-of New Jersey:of

now p r evailini in the land—for the safety of our
country, and the success of our artnies:now in the
field.
Hon. R. C. Winthrop at this point made a speech
that was marked more by ingenuity than out spoken
manliness. As in the Old School Assembly of last
year, an appeal was made to a member of the Cabi
net, who answered unfavorably to action on the part
of the body, so Mr. Winthrop undertook to say
that the Government would prefer that the Con
vention "preserve carefully all ties of religious and
ftuternal sympathy that may remain, for these
ChriStian ties, though now concealed., perhaps nn
under duress, may oncemore be restored, and help
to bind us together in one" * * "In an eccles
iastical assembly, he thong& it better to avoid all
expressions that may leave after them any cause of
irritation or heartburn."

Nevertheless Mr. Winthrop ,consented to Judge
Carpenter's resolution.„ He. even- voted-against tab
lirquat's for its words 'did not sound harsh
Eo:lata, ears.
• Judge Carpenter's resolution wasreferred to a
oommittee of nine, to be aPpeinted ity the chair.
Mr. Hainan then reproduced his own resolutions,
when Hon. H. Seymour, Democratic candidate
for Governor of New York, made a long , speech, in
which he favored' free discussion, but opposed pro
nouncing an •opinion against " our Southern bre
thren." The measure seeinedio him very like the
issuing of a " Pope's hull against the Comet." It
seemed that we were first to pass judgment on our
Southern brett - tren;ten rnassa; and, if vre - everttallid .
tune and inclination, we would try them 'afterwards.
He begged them to." poise
_before condemning the
absentcondernning hundrediand thousands ofbreth
ren, not a man of whom was here to speak for himsdlf.
[Speaking plainly ,enough, Denicteratic-eandi
date-Seymour, would you but hear it, by death
ing bullets and by the cannon's_ mouth.] He was
prepared 'to denounce `the
,Potiticat action of the
South: but he was loth to take a similar course to
wards his fellow members of_ the Church. He-knew
that he-mightiet 'maintain fraternal regard'towards
that; [BishOp Polk included?] ; .and that'even in
case of a separation, thoughthey might not be Mem
bers of the Protestant Episcopal Church of the Un
ited States, yet they would still be members of the
Protestant Episcopal Church of the world. He was
anxious that the. Church should stand right in the
eyes of our Sikithern brethren. He would vote
for Mr. 13runot's reselutions [not Mr. .Hofrman's.]
• Marked sensation accompanied -the delivery of
the above address, and a very visible disposition to
applaud was noticed in a portion of the House.
Dr. Hawks, whose Southern sympathies are well
known, made ti-rank speech, as the following choice
extracts will show
Men of honest minds would never cut off brethren
from communion for a matter of mere words, and.
because the two parties' did not alearly understand
one another's .speeoh. * * They pray for those
who actually are their ;tilers. This they must do,
whether or no ; but in so doing they only obey what
has been the law of the Church ab antic. He quo
ted the rule of early times from Justin Martyr; Ter
tullian, Dionysina of`Aleiandria, and Eusebius, that
the Government de facto , was, always recognized by
the chureh. The church must •bring her peculiar
and appropriate ecclesiastical •
r strength to the relief
of the Country. Aa individuals' we could do it;by
joining her armies ; but, as a Body, this Convention
could not enlist in the army, and fight the ba Os of
flesh and blood: That belonged uhtilly to the de 7
partment of the civil and secular government. Why
not leave it there? We could'give that government
our sympathy, our means, our-arme, our lives ; but
not here, nor new. They could'not pollute the Tem
ple of God.
The various re.solutions which had been offered,
were referred to the Committee Of Nice= This com
mittee, on the following morning, was announced as
below
Mr. Mead, Jlev:Dr; Wilson, Rev. Dr.
Hon. Washington Hunt, ReV . . Dr. Higbee, Rev.
Dr. Totten, Hon. R C. Winthrop, General Charles
Goddard and Judge-Conyngham. Tolerably pro-
Southern or pro-nothing committee, that I
Yet the committee cannot dravtcrff all the strength
of this live question. On the sth day it coma np
in great prepartions.. Rev. Dr. Goodwin, of this
city, a brave, , straightforward man seemingly, pro
posed n series Of - denims for the adoption of the
House, which declared 'that' no Bishop of, the Pro
testant. tpisr;onal Cknrch, iii the United States,
should leave the ministry to take up arms, and that
the exclusive calling of thoSe- in orders, who were
members of the Convention, consisted in the per
formance of their ministerial duties; and that no
clergyman should be connected with the'army ex
cept in the capacity of chaplain.
Of course a new storm of wrath arose from South
ern sympathisers, on which we mill not dwell.
Judge Chambers and Dr. Hawks were again promi
nent. The lattei said : "We must not lig in all
the little dirty questions of the day which will be
buried with their agitation."
Here, is a noble word. on the other side, however,
by a Dr. Clarkson, of Illinois, which may be put in
contrast with some'frothy diclarationa of Hen. Mr.
Huni,on the exemplary innocence of " the Church"
in the war, already quoted by u& The Illinoisian,
Dr. Clarkson, thought -mire of the brethren at the
South were migguiders rather than misguided. In
some places our brethren had been put in-the van;
and helped to urge the rest of the' community into
the vortex
_of rebellion. The family, the Church,
and f,he State, were all of divine appointment : and
if the Churph could not, say to the State in her trou
ble, `` God bless you and save you I" then God have
mercy on the Church If Sage Chambers was a
father, he would understand 'that the rebukes to
children often gave the greater pain to the parent.
For the church todo nothing now, would be to enact
the pert of the Priest,, and the levite in the parable
of the Good Samaritan. He begged" them not to
mind the cry of "No polities! " It was the old cry
of " Wolf! " The rebellion was not yet over, and
votes given in this Houie might decide whether the
ship of State was to go down, or to outride the storm. ,
And likewise this of Dr. Vinton : (whom the
Church Jonrnal of New York; steadily ignores in
this debate, calling him simply 'a Clerical deputy.')
The South was guilty of schism---the worst kind
schism, separation. He condemned the clergy and
the laity of the South for organizing oppositil in
the first flush of secession. They have been fore-
Moat in fomenting secession. He werild utter his
solemn protest against disunion. Had the Church
been true in her loyalty, the rebellion would never
have gained a foothold.
Thus the fifth day passed, no other business what
ever haVing been transacted. The proposed canons
were referred to the Committee on Canons.
Th e
,si x th day witnessed further demonstrations
in the same direction ;, the principal ef which was a
preamble and resolutions offered by Rev. Dr. Vin
ton,deolaiing the consecration of Richarcla. Wil
mer, D.D., to the Episcopal See of 'Alabaina, as
" nnormordcal, irregular, and schismatidair and
pronouncing his jurisdiction void. This woe tempo
rarily laid aside.
The Seventh 'day, Wednesdr,ty; was observed by
apptintment of the Bishops, as a day of fasting,
huniiliation and prayer ; we have given some awl
merle& the prayers uttered on:that occasion ; aome
what Laodicean they must perforce be called.
On the Eighth day, Thursday, Mr. Winthrop in
trodueed the report of the Committee of Nine,which
contains en extraordinary amount of apology fer the
infinitesimal scraps of manly and loyal sentiments
whiekwe find, in, it. According to this document,
the .CiOnn*P> as u a sort Octwilight, "cannot, he
w hayadidd,(l) talhe .course Which has been ,pur.
Alittirattlttobgttti.in i:and: .4: otiottfrinto.,itlio:#
sued in their ecclesiastical and civil relations by great
numbers of the ministers and members of this
Church." Plainly enough the authors of the docu
ment had not been to Sharpsburg, as Pennsylvania
Mr. Bnlnot had. And they "feel bound "•,--tre
mendous obligation--" to declare " their " solemn
sense of the deep and grievous wrong they [there :
bets] WILL HAVE inflicted, etc., should they persevere.
in striving to rend asunder." etc, Of course noob7
ligation las yet accrued, nor will accrue, we suppose,
until the effect of thesp declarations has been tried
on General Polk and his fellow-churchmen. Finally
the resolutions pledge the earnest and devout pray
ers of the Body to the Government, that its efforts
may be crowned with speedy and complete success
to the glory of God and restoration of the Union.
Yet it isJeft, wholly to the judgment of the BishopS
whether or not to prescribe suitable forms of prayer
for the emergency, there being none such in exist
ence of general Authority. According to loyal men
in the Convention, the present prayers .",answer as
well for the rebels as for us."

The late Victor at Corinth was a very se
vere conflict, and if accounts received nearly 'a week
afterwards, are correct, it was originally defeat,
converted by the returning bravery of the defeated
but rallied . men, into a decisive victory.
In order to gain a correct idea of the battle of
,Co
rinth, it is neceSsary to go back'to the desperate
fight at lukn, on the 19th of September. . General
had information - that engagenient
that the rebel,General Van Boni was Marching up
with a heavy force to flank Corinth on the west, and
to attack either that place* or Bolivar, Tennessee,
while .PAce' shoidd move up alinultinionaly from
luka. Price's diseomfiture , at Inks delayed, but
did not entirely frustrate this plan.
After the battle of the 19th he retreated by way
of Marietta, and Fulton to Tupelo, and then march
ed nocthwast, to. Ripley, where he joined Van Dorn
and Lovell, and the• combined forces moved upon
Corinth. It appears that their main: army marched
north through Ruckersville and Jonesboro to Pocal
hontas, on . the Memphis and Charleston , Railroad,
and then moved down the road to attack General
Roseman% while another column,* probably price's,
took the shortest route by way of Kessuth,
The Rrst Day's .Fight.—On the morning of the
3d our outposts were attacked by thp . enemT in
force, about six miles northeast of Corinth. Before
nine o'clock the engageMent became general= and
fierce, and a sanguinary battle was fought
Our men, under Roseemns, stood up znanfulty,
and fought with great coolness= and bravery. But
regiment after regiment, and brigade after brigade
poured in'uTion us, and We were forced 'Slowly back
wards, fighting desperately. The rebels Pushed for-
Ward with determined obstinacy, and held every foot
of advantage ground. They outflanked our inferior
force on the left, and were attempting to get in our
rear. We were obliged to back still further, to
prevent
.0* movement from being accomplished.
The enemy were inside of our 'breastworks, pushing
us backward toWards the town, when darkness, put
an end to the fighting'forthatday.
During the . day's fight our loss was heavy, but
that-of the enemy must have largely exceeded ours.
Three pieces of the Ist Missouri battery were cap
tured.
BrigadierrGeneralHaeklernan fell, mortally ;woun
ded, at the head of his 'brigade. General Ogleaby
was shot , in the breast.
The Second. Day's Pighf.--About four o'clock on
the morning of the 4th the enemYmpened brisld3ron
the town with shot and shell. Our batteries replied:
and Jet an _hour.ur more hekVY carommulhairmas
kept, up. At.the expiration of that time two of the
rebel gum had-been disabled, and shortly after day
light their battery of seven guns were .captured. A
portentous.' quietnes,s'soon 'occurred, and it-Was evi.
dent that!some moveinent , was being made by the
enemy. The Western. Sharpshooters, under Colo
nel Burks, were ordered forward as skirmishers to
feel the enemy's position:
At half-past nine o'clock '.they met the enemy
within a quarter of a mile of the advance of our
line of:battle, advaneing Tepidly =heavy columns
upon the • town: ~Theyirnmediately opened a mur=
derous fire on the skirmishers, who immediately
began - tOretire, returning the fire of the enemy with
. The woods seemed alive with rebels, and it ap
'mitre& impossible for this gallant regiment to escape
destruction in their,retreat over three quarters of a
Mile of open ground, which intervened between
them and our temporary works of defence.
In a few moments the engagement became gene
ral. - Our batteries' opened4-destiubtiveAre on the
exposed ranks of the rebels,' mowing them - down like
grais, The slaughter among them was frightful.
But With unparalleled daring'and recklessneSS they
rushed• impetuously foTward. They charged our
works desperately, broke" our lines of infantry, and
captured a small fortification; in which the battery
of the Ist 'Missouri was Planted'. Our fortune seem
ed to be all lost A teMpoiirt panic seized our
men; and' the rebels once more marched intothe
streets of Corinth.
New batteries opened Upon them. Our men,-un
der the direction_ of
,a few-courageous officers,` and
stiMulated by their example, though .thinued in
ranks, fought desperately. The advance of the-ene
my wafr checked. They wavered, and then fell back.
Our loSt battery was regained," and once more it
hurled destruction into. their ranhs., The day was
saved, and the enemy in full retreat.
. .
Our loss was Comparatively small.during this fear
fd charge. That of the enemy was fully twenty , to
our one killed. Among the rebels killed and left;on
the field was Brigadier-General Rixlgers, of 'New
Orleans, Colonel 'and - Acting-Brigadier Johnscm, of
Mississippi, and mother Oolondecinmanding a hri
gade, whose name was not learned.
The enemy was commanded by Van Dora, Price,
and Villipigne,. with; .their ,respective army corps,
nuinbering 50,000 men.
Our proportion of officers killed is thooght to be
large. We lost kit four taken prisoners.
The rebel loss is about 800 killed and from 1500
to 1800 wounded: We laie 1600 prisoners at Co
rinth, and. 300 on the 4Hatchie, with more coming
in constantly. We - have- taken several thousand
stand of arms, .thrown away by the rebels in their
flight. They:are Mostly new pins of English manu
facture. Our loUs is believed to helbout 300 killed
and 1000 wounded. •
The battle was fought chiefly on Saturday, the
4th inst. ,
On Sunday, General Ord droye the enemy five
miles 'over the hills and. through the woods and-val

DIED, in West Almond, Alitigani county, N. Y.,
September 14, 1862, JAtigli prospimyrr, aged 73
-years.
For more than fifty years an exemplary and faith
ful member of the household of Faith, fully . sustain
ing the great cardinal doctrines of the Cross in all his
intercourse with his fellow creatures; greatly beloved
by his family and brethren in. the Church, as well as
by all that knew him. He was taken like a shock of

LIONZL CORNMAN son of L. R. CORNNAN, Esq., of
Stillwater, Minnesota. .
COrpOlStil CORNMAN was
.a member of company B.
First Minnesota Regiment, and was one of the first to
enlist under the Call for three months vobinteers. He
passed through all the dangers and vicissitudes of
that regiment fornear eighteen months, until the bat
tle of Antietam, ivhen he fell early in the engailement,
a' rifle ball penetrating the forehead and killing him
instantly. Mr. Comm= was a young min of twenty.
two years of age, and enlisted in the war as a matter
of .principle and patriotism. He fell like a patriot,
on' the post 'of duty. We have known him well and
intimately for. a number of years, and• among our ac
quaintances we know of none more worthy of esteem
for his manly virtues and intellectual adornments.
He was beloved by all his comrades in the camp, and
alike by every citizen with whom he became acquaint
ed., Corporal Common's body was '.interred' by
;,rt from all the others in a beautiful
grove near the battle-field. May it rest undiaturbed
by the clangor of battle, until the'great Day when
kindred and friends and' e,omrades:ihall meet to sep
arate no more forever. It is hard to separate thus
from friends we love, ; it is hull .to bp thus, cut off in

come thus early, the battle-fielaliis• the place for 'the
patriot to die. : • .

'lmportant Facts. Constitit writing tor six
months done cheaper with our. Gold Pens than with
steel ; therefore, it is economy to use Gold Pens.
•The:Oold Pen remains unchanged by years of con
tinued use, while the Steel Pen is ever changing by
corrosion and wear ; therefore, perfect uniformity of
writing is obtained only by the use of the Gold Pen.
The. Gold Pen is always ready, and reliable, while
the Steel Pen must be often condemned and anew
one selected ; therefore, in the use' of the Gold Pen
there is great saving of time:
Gold is capable of receiving. any.degree of elasti
city, so that the Gold Pen is exactly adapted to the
hand of the writer therefOre, the nerves of the
hand and arm are noi, injured, as is known to be the
case !by the use'of Steel Pens. ' •
