U. & CHRISTIAN COMMISSION
Froiii the Army of the Cumberland, the Army
of the Mississippi, the Army of the Ohio, the
Army of the Potomac, and the ; new Army of
the Susquehanna, there are calls for delegates
of the Christian Commission. From the Army
of the Cumberland, especially, the call is ear
nest, urgent, and continual. The great work
in progress there opens the way for the services
of an unusual number of delegates, and promi
ses a reward in the amount of good done, and
experience gained, seldom equalled.
The best talent is demanded, and the most
glorious results promised. The wisdom and
experience of onr ablest and best men are
needed. Ministers who can preach with power
to audiences of thousands, will find ample
scope for their talents. Men who are skilful
in directing inquirers to Jesus, the Way, the
Truth, and the Life, and whose hearts bum to
do it, may have work to satisfy them.
Business men who have tact and talent fpr
affairs, and who can yet speak impressively
and pray fervently, will find positions where
their special adaptations will have especial
value.,.
The term of service must be six weeks or
overj and if two, three, or four months can be
given to it, so much the better.
Mere nurses are not wanted, ’ though every
man who goes as a delegate for the Commission,
should willingly and heartily and skillfully
nurse the sick and wounded when occasion
serves, but men who can speak with power as
well, and help the suffering, are the men for
the work.
All expenses are paid by the Commission to
and. from the field, and subsistence furnished
on it, but no salaries allowed.
Letters addressed to the Secretary, with good
testimonials, will receive prompt attention.
Applications made in person, where convenient,
are more satisfactory.

Virginia, Maryland and'Pennsylvania.— The
rebels claim that in taking Winchester they captured
6000 or 7000 of Gen. Milroy’s command, 50 pieces of
artillery, and vast quantities of supplies. It will be
remembered that Milroy estimated his loss at 2000,
most of whom were reported as having safely escaped
to the Pennsylvania line. News or rather reports
from the invading forces are still conflicting. On
the 23d of June, some cavalry from Gen. Couch’s
command, are said to have occupied Frederick, Md.,
driving out the enemy. On the contrary, the rebels
In large force were represented as having reentered
dhambereburg on the same day, at ; II A. M. A
party was also represented to be at Uniontown, 40
miles South of Pittsburg, on the some 23d, At mid
night of June 24, and 25th, the rebels were reported
as only 8 below Carlisle with every prospect of
an early advance on Harrisburg; our forces under
General Knipe, had fallen back.from Ohambersburg
to Carlisle, a strong column has been thrown on the
enemy’s flank towards Gettysburg. Great efforts
are made to prevent an” advance towards Hanover
Junction on the Northern Central Byroad, east of
Gettysburg. A telegram of June 23d from Washing
ton,-Says: .
"It is; at last fully ascertained that, the main body
of the rebel army is in the Shenandoah Valley.
Ewell’s corps moved from Culpeper-first, and was
followed byLongstreet’s, which was succeeded by D,
H. Hill’s corps, The corps of A. P.’ Hill did not go
up the valley until after Ewell gained his success at
Winchester."
Baltimore advices of the 24th cay that Lee, with a
large portion of his rebel horde, crossed the Potomac
from Virginia into Williamsport the day previous.
A confirmatory despatch was also received from
General Tyler at Maryland Heights. This is in addi
tion to those already at Sharpsburg, Williamsport,
and Hagerstown; so that Lee's whole army must
now be in Western Maryland. On the26th, Governor
Curtin issued a call for 60,000 3 months' men for the
defence of the State. Gen. Dana has been-assigned
to the command in Philadelphia. Carlisle, we are
pained to learn, was evacuated on the night of the
25th, On the same night and the Mowing morn
ing, nearly all the troops in Harrisburg were sent
across the river, while crowds of fugitives from
Cumberland Valley with every kind of vehicles and
furniture of every sort poured into and through
Harrisburg in their flight from the scene of danger.
It is believed that 35,000 of the rebel army had
orossed and were in Maryland and Pennsylvania
about that time. From Newbern, N. C. we learn by
a dispatch dated June 23d, that “as soon as the
intelligence reached General Foster of Lee's advance,
he, on his own responsibility, commenced making
arrangements for embarking, all his available forces
for Fortress Monroe, to be used by Gen. Dix in
taking Richmond, or to assist in repelling the rebel
invasion, as General Dix might tMnk proper.” This
force added to the 40,000 now in Gen. Dix’a depart
ment will make ah army as formidable to Richmond
as Gen. Lee’s can be to any nothern city.
Vicksburg Aua Port Hftdsoh.— Official advices
from General Grant to June 19th, at noon, report
some advantages gained by our forces on the 18th.
The siege was progressing satisfactorily. General
McClernand has been removed from the command
of the 13th Army Corps,' and General Ord assigned
to the command in his place. The Marine brigade,
under General Ellet, accompanied by General Meade,
made a reconnoisance to Richmond, La., on the 16th,
with 2,300 men, and drove 3,500 rebels out of the
place, captured 30 prisoners, and burned the town.
Onr loss was slight. It ig stated that the rebels
carried a black flag with a skull and cross bones.
A most appropriate symbol. The total casnalities
in General McClernand’s corps in the campaign is
3,956; the division of General Blair lost 896 killed,
wounded and missing, in tie assaults of the 19th and
22d nit. The report that the rebels are fortifying
the Black River Bridge is erroneous. The enemy
are not within many miles of that place. On the 14th
of June, Gen. Banks established his batteries within
three Hundred and fifty yards of the rebel works at
Port Hudson. After a vigorous cannonading, he
summoned Gen. Gardiner to surrender. On his re
fusal, an assanlt was made, and onr forces gained po
sitions within from fifty to one hnndred yards of the
enemy's works, which they held. Gen. Paine was
severely wounded. Gen. Banks expressed himself
confident of success.—A cavalry expedition from
La Grange, Tenn,, into Mississippi, penetrated as far
as Panola, on the Jackson and Memphis Railroad,
where they broke np a rebel camp and destroyed the
Railroad bridge. They then turned westward and
pursued the rebels nearly to the Mississippi river,
killing 15 or 20. and capturing 40. They paroled
all the sick at Panola, and brought away or destroyed
all the arms, supplies, workshops, mills, tanneries,
depots, &c« They passed within three miles of Aus
tin and Commerce, on the Mississippi, destroying
■an immense amount of forage and subsistence, taking
from 600 to 800 horses and mules, and 500 head of
cattle. They also sent detachments north and east
from Helena, to destroy or bring away all the sub
sistence, forage, horses and mules, and crossed three
rivers. They also destroyed all the ferries at Panola
and Coldwater, losing one man killed and five
wonnded. The fight at Tallahatchie was very severe.
The enemy’s loss was 100. It is believed that this
disarranges seriously the rebel plan of operations in
the rear of Gen. Grant’s forces. About one thou
sand Texans attacked Lake Providence on the 10th
and were repulsed with loss by the negro troops, who
fought -bravely. On the 17th of June an assanlt
was ordered on the rebel lines at Port Hudson, but
was repulsed with the loss of 700 men. Rebel de
serters report a consultation of the officers, who
unanimously requested Gen. Gardiner to surrender.
He replied that large reinforcements would arrive
within a week, and if they would only hold out a
few days longer the siege would result favorably to
them. The Richmond Dispatch, of the 23d, says
it is thought in that city that Vicksburg must fall,
without the interposition of a miracle. There was a
very heavy cannonade from our lines all through
Satprday evening and Sabbath till night, the 20th.
and 21st ult. -

Another Union Raid.— Col. Saunders having re
turned from an expedition into East Tenn., June
23d, makes the following report to Gen. Burnside:
I struck the railroad at Lenoir, destroyed the road
up to Knoxville, made a dqpionstration against
Knoxville, so as to draw the troops down from
above, destroyed the track and started for Straw
berry Plaibs, burnt the State creek bridge, 312 feet
long, and the Strawberry creek bridge, 1.600' feet
long, and also the Massey creek .bridge, 325 feet
long. I captured 3 pieces of artillery, some 2(30
boxes artillery ammunition, over 500 prisoners and
1,000 stand of arms, destroyed a large amount of
salt, sugar, flour, meal, saltpetre, .and one saltpetre
works and other stores. My command is much
fatigued. We have had but two nights’ sleep since
leaving Williamsburg. r
N&V&l- —The prisoners from the rebel iron-clad
Atlanta, 145 in number, have arrived North. Capt.
Rodgers of the U. S. iron-clad Weehawken, gives the
following account of the affair, which , occurred June
17th: '
“ On examination it was found that the enemy had
been struck four times. First on the inclined side
by a 15-inch cored shot, which, although fired at an
angle of fifty degrees with her keel, broke through
the armor and wood backing, strewing her deck with
splinters, prostrating'about forty men by the concus
sion, and wounding several by broken pieces of ar
mor and splinters. One man has Bince died. The
second shot, 11-inch solid, struck the edge of the
overhung knuckle, doing no damage except breaking
a plate or two. The third shot, a 15-inch cored,
struck the top of the pilot-house, knocking? it off,
two pilots, and stunning the men at the'
wheel. The, fourth shot, supposed to be 11-inch,
struck a port stopper in . the centre, breaking it in
two and shattering it very much, driving many
fragments in through.the port. There were onboard
at the time of capture, as per muster roll, 21 officers
and 124 men, including 28 marines.
The Weehawken suffered no injury whatever. Ad
miral Dupont says he has been told :that the Confed
erate Government considered the Atlanta as' the
most efficient of their gunboats. She cost them a
million of good money, and was full of stores at the
time of capture. Her ram and torpedo were of the
most formidable character.
The Pirate Tacony. —Chatham, (Mass.,) June
26.—The fishing schooner Juliette, of Beverly, Cap
tain Mallons, arrived here this afternoon, reports was
spoken by the schooner Florence, of Gloucester, this
morning, about forty miles southeast from Chatham
Lights. She had on board one hundred and thirty
prisoners from the pirate Tacony, which took the
Florence yesterday, bonded her, and ordered her to.,
New York with the prisoners. The Tacony captured
and burned six schooners yesterday, belonging to
Gloucester, and three ships, the Saratoga, Para-,
guy. and another, name unknown, in lat .41.03, long. ?

A rebel iron-clad, built in the, Apalachicola River,
Florida, named Chattahoochee, exjffoded her boiler
accidentally a couple of weeks ago, while preparing
for an attack upon our blockading fleet off the mouth
of the river.—Rebel (privateers are doing immense
damage- almost on .our very-shores, particularly
among the fishing fleets. A schooner from the Bay
of Fnndy, at. Portland, June 26, reports a large
steamer, bark and three-masted schooner as at the
mouth of the bay burning vessels, • A steamer and a
large vessel have both been seen on fire by coasters
arriving at New England ports. Phe ship Augine
of Boston was seized and bonded by the pirate for.
$30,000. —It seems like a dramatic addition to our
troubles, especially <m the waters, to be compelled
at this hour to record the death of the gallant and
pious Admiral Foote,'which took place on the night
of the 26th of June, in’ New York—The bankruptcy
of Mr. Pearson, the Anglo-rebel trader, is a feature
of London news. The failure was attributed to losses
by tbe capture of steamers and goods by the United
States navy.. His unsecured debts,are upwards of
£108,000; Tbcover secured debtsthe Securities are va
lued at £373,000. —A most daring but fatal attempt
was made by the rebel privateers of the Tacony to •
get possession of the revenue cutter, Caleb Cushing,
at Portland, Me. Last Friday, finding themselves
hard pressed by our cruisers, they abandoned and
burned their vessel, the Tacony, and transferred their -
crew to the schooner Archer, which they had cap
tured. The character of this vessel being unknown,
they were able to come close ashore and land a party
near Portland, who succeeded in capturing the reve
nue cutter at half-past twelve in the night; and
placing her crew in irons at 3, A. M., they ran her
out of the harbor; Her captain had died the day
previous, and his successor, who had just arrived,
immedidiately started out upon a vessel, fortunately
armed and in readiness, for pursuit. The pirate
crew seeing themselves hard pressed, abandoned the;
cutter, which soon after blew'up. They were subse
quently captured and placed in. Fort Preble.
Patriotic Charge of Judge Allison. —On Thurs
day, June 25th, Juuge Allison disohargtd the jurors of
the Court of Quarter Sessions, and in doing so he
said: We can no longer remain incredulous to the
threatening and rapid advance of an invading rebel
force upon the capital of our State. This fact ren
ders it proper, in my judgment, to discharge you for
two weeks from Monday next. The time has come
when all other considerations should give place to
the imperative duty to defend our State at whatever
cost., T have waited for some decisive action by the
authorities charged with the protection of the Com
lonian §tfs&irlmatt jttfl drawjjflifii.
monwealth, but no such action has yet been taken;
the time for delay and invitation to duty has passed.
A community as indifferent to impending peril as is
ours, requires the exercise of the highest and strongest
power of the Government to compel an obedience
that ought to be yielded to the instinct of self-preser
vation and to a.manly and patriotic pride. But apa
thy seems to have fallen upon us all; our public au
thorities are paralyzed or indifferent; our citizens
in the mass are to a wonderful extent regardless of
the highest obligations of citizenship. I have no
power to correct the evil in either direction, but that
each one required to be in attendance here, may not
plead that attendance as an excuse for longer delay
in action, and in the hope that the example may not
be without its influence, I now discharge you until
Monday, the 13th day of July. Whether we shall
possess a city in which to re-assemble at that time,
the future will determine. If we shall then be able
to call the city and State our own, it will be more
than we deserve.
What , is thought of the Copperheads by the
Rebel Officers. —The Press of this city give the fol
lowing from a “ highly respectable professional gen
tleman residing in Chambersburg:’’
The rebel General Jenkins being fond of “Switzer
case and Lager,” accompanied some of our young
men to a drinking house. A blatant sophomoric
sprig of the law was one of the party, and having
become somwhat exhilarated, he commenced to
ventilate his disloyal and treasonable sentiments; he
was not allowed, however to proceed very far, until
Jenkins informed him that he discovered in him one
of those creatures termed Copperheads, and that
where he came from, they were held in more profound
contempt than the avowed . Black Republicans,
This should have heen enough for our assinine friend,
but he preferred: to show his ears still further by re
ferring to “poor Vallandigham” as a greatly perse
cuted individual, who had been sent out of our lines
by our despotic government because of the fact that,
he had exercised the right of free speech, and had
giveh expression to sentiments which were inter
preted as treasonable by those in power. The reply
of Jenkins was this: “My Copperhead friend, your
Administration did not do its duty. If Lincoln had
performed his part as he should have done, he would
have hung you six months ago. If any man in the
Southern Confederacy would utter sentiments as ad
verse to our Government as ■Vallaudigham to yours,
we, would not only deprive him of liberty, but \we
would take his life." My informant says that, this
shot had the effect of sending our besotted friend
home, a soberer if not a wiser youth.
Andrew H. Foote, Rear-Admiral in the U. S.
Navy died at the Astor House, : New York, on Fri
day evening last. He was distinguished for consis
tency and worth as a Christian no less than for his
courage and indomitable energy as an officer. Never
flinching iu the face of danger; braving the storm of
battle as cooly as though shot and shell were harm
less as paper pellets, he faced with the same resolu
tion every temptation of the service, carrying with
him oh every deck he trod the religious principles
which made his life everywhere conspicious for purity
and beauty—compelling even the dissolute to respect
his character, and, by that very fact, making every
man under him solicitous to earn his approval. Men
have never fought in this; war under the eye of ahy
chief more bravely than Foote’s men fought under
his eye on the Cumberland and Tennessee. He has
displayed .considerable literary ability in a series of
papers on Japan, which country he was among the
first to visit. On the vital issue of the country his
patriotic sentiments were well known as strongly
opposed to slavery. Several valuable essays from
his pen having'appeared against the slave trade at
home and abroad—the result of his faithful services
on the coast of Africa. In his death the country
loses a strong arm and loyal heartland the navy one
of the brightest names that ever shed lustre on its
annals. But the memory of such a man will ever be
green in the hearts of a grateful posterity.
George Gordon Meade, the successor of Gen.
Hooker to the command of the Army of the Potomac
entered into this war as a soldier, aud has been a
soldier for nearly thirty years. He served in Mexico
as an engineer, and obtained distinction at Monterey.
Since that, time' he has been constantly in the ser
vice, and tlie. rebellion found him in the army,having
risen by the tedious and lingering ; process to the
rank of captain. When the great Pennsylvania
Reserve Corps was organized he assumed command
of the third brigade, and very soon obtained the
fame of beluga just, severe, and accomplished officer.
We may claim General Meade as a Philadelphian,
for although born 1 in Spain; while his father was
residing temporally at Cadiz, he is a member of an
old and highly-respected Philadelphia family. There
are,few officers in the army who possess more military
experience, and in addition to this, he is a just, honest,
high-minded man, intensely loyal, add devoted ear
nestly to the cause. He has obtained the confidence
of the army of the Potomac by his valor and his
stern but careful discipline, and we feel ass ured,
from what we know'of him that he will justify the
highest expectations of the country.
From Rebel Sources.
The Invasion.— The Richmond Dispatch oi the
23d, has the following:
For the past few days public attention has been
withdrawn in a measure from the operations around
Vicksburg by tbe brilliant achievements of our army
under Gen. Lee on the northern border of Virginia,
and in Pennsylvania and Maryland. It is gratifying
to know, however, that our successes on the Missis
sippi rival those of our arms on the Potomac.
It was stated in the city early yesterday morning
that information had been received of the landing
of a heavy column of Unionists at some point on the
York River, West' Point is the safest base of oper
ations on that river, and we learn that yesterday,
when the train of the Richmond and York River Rail
road left the White House, there were some Yankees
at the Point below. The train brought up oue Yan
kee deserter, who bad left his comrades during'the.
recent Obiekahominy raid.
The rumors mentioned may be baseless, though
the Fortress Monroe correspondent of a Baltimore
paper, writing on the 18th, says that important
movements are in progress in that vicinity. With
the forces from . Suffolk, the Peninsula Yankess
might risk a feint on Richmond, with-the hope of
turning general attention from Washington.
Vicksburg and Port Hudson.—The Richmond
Dispatch of June 23 says. ,
It is thought in Richmond that Vicksburg must
fall, without- the interposition of a miracle, but it
undertakes to show that, with a resolute commander*
and with the co-operation of Johnston and. Kirby
Smith, Grant will not only not take Vicksburg, but
will himself be put on tbe defensive. It says that
Johnston has a powerful army, and'that, though ap
parently slow, he has to organize an armyin the face
of the enemy, to supply it with the munitions of
war, and to encounter other nnheard-of difficulties,
he has surmounted them all, and, now that the water
is down, we may expect to hear from him in a man
ner that shall silence his detractors forever.
The Sentinel, -however, of an earlier date, says:
Official despatches from Milliken’s Bend state that
our attack upon that place was a failure. The enemy
had three.lines of works., He was driven out of two,
but made a desperate stand at the third, and with
the assistance of his gunboats, repelled our forces.
Nothing is known outside of official circles of Kirby
Smith’s movements. A courier from Port Hudson,
with despatches to Gen. Johnston, arrived last night.
He reports that the garrison is in fine condition and
spirits. Banks’ force is estimated at; 20,000. It is
also reported that he has abandoned the idea of
storming the place,-'and gone W ditching:
Latest-
It seems to betfo longer doubtful that Gen. Lee
has abandoned his communication with Richmond
and has transferred his entire army to loyal soil. It
is said that Lee passed through Hagerstown last
Friday. All the region west of the Susquehanna
below Harrisburg, including Carlisle, York, Wrights
ville, opposite Columbia, have been yielded to Ms
steady approach. Late on Sabbath afternoon the
28th ult., the latter place was occupied by the rebels
after a skirmish- with our forces, who retreated and
burned the splendid railroad bridge at that point.
Four hundred cavalry attempted to ford the Susque
hanna but were baffled by the current. It is said
that the enemy has pontoons sufficient to bridge the
stream at Bainbridge, 12 miles above Columbia.
•All the bridges on the Northern Central Railroad,
from York to Hanover Junction, have been destroyed
by the rebels. MeanwMle, an advance on Richmond
from Fortress Monroe seems to be in progress. Gen.
Dix was at the White House, commanding 40,000
troops in person, late last week; this we have from
several sources wMch we regard as indubitable.
Yet he dates a telegram sent to Washington on
Sabbath, “Fortress Monroe.” The telegram is im
portant as revealing the probable preliminary opera
tions of the advance on Richmond. “Iti3 as follows:
“Fortress Monroe, June 28—Colonel Spear, of
the 11th Pennsylvania cavalry, whom I sent out two
days ago, completely destroyed the bridge of the
Virginia Central Railroad over the South Anne,
(near Hanover Junction 25 miles north of Richmond)
captured Gen. W. R. Lee, Lieutenant Colonel Hear
sable, four captains, five lieutenants and one hun
dred privates and brought them in.
Refugees who have reached the Army of the
Potomac from Richmond represent that there was
quite a panic there, only a very small guard being
left there, and many citizens were leaving and going
to Staunton. In the midst of these movements we
have to chronicle the resignation of Gen. Hooker,
“relieved at his own request,” June 27th, and the
appointment of Gen. Meade of Pennsylvania in his
place.
OUR CITY IN THE EXISTING CRISIS.
It would be impossible for us adequately to
describe the excitement, and we must add,
alarm which prevailed, in our city after it was
known that the rebels were at Wrightsville and
that the Colombia Bridge, an immense structure,
over a mile long, crossing the Susquehanna at
that point, had been burned to prevent the bold
and hateful invaders frpm using it. The news
too, that the army of tie Potomac had, at this
most critical period, undergone a change of
leaders, was felt to be (ominous of evil. Sur
prise, shame, indignatidn, uncertainty for want
of leaders, and organization were the pre
valent feelings. . Every one expeoted, and
almost every good ; citizen looked for a de
claration of martial law and an immediate initia
tion of defensive works Ground the city. It did
not come however. Meanwhile stores were closed,
manufactories suspended, recruiting stations mul
tiplied, meetings were held and immense sums
speedily for bounties. The Union
League, the merchants, aud the Corn Exchange,
leading employers, and the Police of the city
were prominent in these movements.
It is with very great difficulty that this and other
religious papers of this city are got to press, and
subscribers must not be surprised at the late
date on which they receive this issue.
The ministry of our city, one hundred in num
ber held meetings on Monday, and in the after
noon visited the Mayor’r office in a body, and of
fered their services to work in the trenches, or
to perform any part that the exigencies of the
ease demanded. Rev. Dr. Brainerd walked at'
the head of a recruiting squad which started out
with 6 men and returned with 45. It is. said
that 14,000 men enlisted for state and city - de
fence in two days. % ‘

Anniversary Exercises of the Phlladelpliia Col
legiate Institute for Young ladles, 1530 Arch street,
Philadelphia.—Rev. Charles A. Smith, D,D,, Principal.—The cha
racter of this seminary is now quite well known throughout the
city and the State. It was the purpose of the reverend gentleman,
in founding it, some nine years ago, to establish an institute for the
education of young ladies, which Bboold rank in all respects, witb
the first seminaries of the country, but particularly in regard to
the thoroughness and comprehensiveness of its graduating course.
Such an institution seemed to be especially needed in Philadelphia;
for, whilst our admirable free schools, as well as many of the select
schools of the city, provide a range of study sufficiently thorough
and extensive for the ordinary purposes of education, there seemed
to be few, if any, which offered advantages to those desiring for
their daughters the more thorough discipline and advanced culture
which a full collegiate course, would secure—a course embracing,
besides the modern languages and the common English and orna
mental branches, Latin, the higher mathematics, and a full course
of metaphysical and philosophical study. This seminary fully
meets this acknowledged want; for it is the distinctive feature of
this institution, that, although pupils are received, as in other
schools, who may, if they please, confine their attention to the ordi
nary mathematical and English branches, including music, paint
ing; modem language?, etc., yet the completion of the full collegiate
course of study prescribed is made the indispensable condition of
graduation. None may receive diplomas unless this full course is
pursued.
Last Thursday evening, the anniversary solreeoftheinstltutewas
held. The class in vocal music,under the direction of Signor Pa
rent, contributed greatly to the pleasure of the entertainment, re
flecting great credit upon themselves and their well known instruc
tor. Whilst all the pieces were well executed, some were rendered
with unusual propriety and effect. The scholars in instrumental
music also showed a very high degree of proficiency. Perhaps, how
ever, the most striking part of the entertainment was the reading,
fly pupils of the school, of poetical selections. These recitations
evidenced an accurate appreciation of the characters and sentiments
of the several pieces, and were marked by singular propriety of ac
cent, a pleasing distinctness of enunciation, and by peculiar natu
ralness of tone and emphasis. Certain portions were rendered with
unusual power. The remarkable proficiency of the readers in this
important but difficult and very greatly neglected art, waa very gra
tifying to the patrons of the institution, and bore striking testimo
ny to the skill and success of the instructor in this department.
At the dose of the exercises, a beautifully printed sheet was dis
tributed, entitled "School Voices, ?I and containing original essays
and,translations by pupils of the seminary. These essays, quite
varied in their style and range of topics, are highly creditable to
their authors. Many of them, besides exxibiting unusual beauty of
diction, and force of expression, discover a maturity of mind, and a
logical grasp and comprehensiveness of thought, which can only
proceed from a very thorough training and discipline.

The Rev# J. C* Fletcher gave us last evening a brilliant
lecture on the religion, customs and people of Brazil. Seldom have
we relished anything more than the picture he laid before his audi
ence of that exuberant garden of the tropics laden with its strange
variety of fruits and flowers, teeming with perpetual harvest for the
hand of man. Surely that country must be the garden of the world,
and if ita people had the enterprise which moves this Yankee nation,
imagination could not set a bound to the results they would produce
there. As relevant to this comparison the Reverend gentleman sta
ted that the best Remedies employed there for the diseases to which
they are subject, are invented and supplied to them by our own well
known countryman, Dr. J. C. Ayer, of Lowell, Mass., and that not the
people only but the priesthood and the court of the Emperor down,
have constant recourse in sickness to the Remedies of this widely
celebrated American Chemist.—[Ledger, Boston.

THE RICHARDSON PREMIUM
BURIAL CASKETS.
Dfcaped inside throughout with Cashmere, Satin, or
other material, and constructed substantially air-tight
by the novel invention of patent Circular Ends, with
out any joints, making it impossible for oxygen to pe
netrate from the outside, thus rendering them more
durable, and better adapted to the purposes for which
they are needed.
They are tastefully manufactured from grained Bose
wood, Mahogany, Black Walnut ; and other materials
that render them less expensive and place them,with
in the means of persons of moderate circumstances,
and all finished according to the wishes and taste of
those'giving the orders.-
While the Casket retains all the requisites of an ap
propriate receptacle for the dead, its construction and
appearance is such, as entirely to do away with all dis
agreeable and unpleasant sensations. There is noth
ing in the arrangement or shape of the*Casket, that is
in the remotest degree repulsive, but quite the con
trary, it is beautiful. And surely that which tends in
any degree to soften the poignancy of grief iff the
hour of bereavement, must commend itself to the fa
vorable consideration ■of every afflicted heart, and
sympathizing friend.
The Caskets when required, are made air-tight,
emitting no offensive odor, and hence are specially
valuable in the removal of deceased bodies from any
of the battle fields, and other distant points to remote
localities for interment, and are not liable to the ob
jections frequently made by Eailroad Companies,
when offered for transportation with the nsual prepa
rations. .
' ,We guarantee, in our hands, the removal of the
dead with perfect safety, no matter how long buried,
and if recently interred, in a good state of preserva
tion, and without the least unpleasant odor, Or we
will make no charge for the Casket.
The Caskets are furnished at one-half the cost of
the so-called metallic coffin.
N.B.—We expect to visit the different battle fields
weekly.
The undersigned also offers to the public in gene- •
ral, his Patent Corpse Preserver, a New Invention,
for the preservation of the bodies of deceased persons,
by cold air alone, and without the application of ice,
which is so repugnant to the feelings. By the use of
this Preserver, the funeral may J>e deferred for weeks,
if necessary, to await the arrival of absent friends, as
by the cold air process, the corpse will keep much
longer than in the ordinary way of pressing the body
down with from fifty to a hundred pounds of ice, and
saturating it with water.
