lithographed, accurate, portaits of the Three

new subscriber with pay in advance.
ANOTHER BRAVE SOLDIER GONE.
Lieut. Col. George W. Hawkins, in
command of the 97th Pa., fell in the
advance upon the enemy's works north
of the James River, on the 28th ult.
He was wounded in the leg. Amputa
tion was attempted on the following
morning, but he died under the opera
tion. A melancholy feature in the
event was the , fact that this was expect
ed to be his last day of service. He had
served three years and three months,
coming entirely unharmed out of many
severe battles, and. his time had fully
expired. Indeed he was to have had his
formal discharge the next morning.
His Brigade commander proposed to
him, in view of this fact, and his many
generous self-exposures in the past, that
ho should accept leave of absence from
that day's fight, but this permission his
chivalrous spirit declined. He insisted
on the privilege of once more leading
his beloved men into engagement, before
a final parting with them. The result
is told above.
Col. Hawkins possessed all the traits
of a good soldier. The incident just
named is only a fair reflection of his
oneral patriotism and bravely.
„His
nature was noble, and his character
pure. His domestiefeelings were warm,
and. we learn from his pastor, Dr. Eddy
of the Baptist Church on Chestnut
street, that he was in peace with God.
He leaves a wife between whom and
himself a peculiarly tender attachment
existed—also a young family. His re
mains were buried in Mt. Moriah ceme
tery on Monday of last week—the fune
ral prOceeding from the house of his
father, Mr. John. Hawkins, at the Upper
Darby Post Office, after solemn services
in which Rev. Dr. Eddy and Rev. Messrs
Hotel Akin and George participated.
Deeply affected by the grief of that
stricken household, we noted down
another count in the long bill of indict
ment for murder -against slavery, and
we went with a better will the next day
to deposit the ballot which we meant
should read, "slavery must be destroyed."
ANOTHER REBEL ATROOITY
Our Cumberland Presbyterian breth
ren are getting pretty well wakened
up to the aspects and duties of the
times. If any among them, now and
then a turtle, are waiting for a shower
of hot coals to make them brisk of
movement. we should think a few cases
like the following would be about the
thing. Rev. James Kinkead, a worthy
minister of that church in the west, as
we learn from the Cumberland ~Presbyt
erian,was taken by rebels oq, of his bed
and home, on Monday night about 10
o'clock, Sept. 24. His family impor
tuned for his rescue, which was promised
by the three who captured him. They
said be would be released on the next
morning before they left, a large number
being encamped near his place of resi
dence. Bat time passect and no tidings
came to the family or friends, of his
condition or whereabouts, except re
ports of others who had been captured
and paroled, pho said that he was seen
on the route and lastly, becoming weary
and fatigued, (he not being well,) had
sat down' by the wayside to rest, while
two or three remained to guard him.
This was on Tuesday, Sept. 27th, the
fday after his arrest. Twenty-one days
rom this time, his body 'was found bang
ing in the woods, about 10 miles from
home, in a dreadfully mangled and mor
tified state. Two bullets had pierced
his body in different parts, and both
hands and one arm were off.
OITY RELIGIOUS ITEMS.
NOBLE CONTRIBUTION.—The Green
Hill Presbyterian Church, on the last
Sabbath, made a contribution of $5OO to
the endowment of the Publication Com
mittee, without any effort beyond the
simple presentation of the subject by the
pastor, Rev. F. L. Robbins.
ORDAINED AND INSTALLED.—The Rev.
David M. Gordon was ordained and in
stalled pastor of the Fourth United
Presbyterian Church, on Thursday
evening, the 10th inst., by the Presby
tery of Philadelphia The church is
situated on Lombard street, west'' of
Nineteenth.. The audience was large,
and the exercises of the evening were of
a very interesting character. Mr. Gor
sw3ceeds the lamented Rev. Geo. C. Ar
nold, who was removed by death about
a year ago. The congregation is in a
flourishing condition, and they have
been fortunate in securing the pastoral
labors of a young man of good address
and decided intellectual ability.
INSTALLATION OF REV. WOLCOTT CAL-
K'Ns.—The installation of Mr. Calkins
as Pastor of Calvary church, by the
Third Presbytery of Philadelphia, is
appointed for next Sabbath evening, at
7 , 1- o'clock, The Moderator, Dr. March
will perform the duties of presiding
Presbyter;`the sermon will be preached
by Prof. R. D. Hitchcock, f Union
Theologicar Seminary—subject, The Per
son of Christ—; charge to the Pastor by
Dr. E. E. Adams; charge to the people
by Rev. A. Barnes. We are informed
that Dr. Kirk, of Boston will occupy
the Calvary pulpit on Sabbath morning,
taking for his subject, Worship. •
THIRD OHUROH, PITTSBURG.
The following interesting summary is gath
ered from the Sectrid Annual Sermon of the
Pastor, Herrick Johnson, preached on the
first Sabbath of the month. The old house
of worship was destroyed by fire a little more
than one year ago ; since then, the services
have been held in a public hall. Though
limited in its accommodations, and not alto
gether central to the people, and most incon
venient of access, it being in the third story
of a large building,—this hall was deemed
the best place in the city, whose exclusive
use could be temporarily secured for reli
gious services. This has lasted an entire
year, and yet the annual exhibit of the
affairs of the church gives no indication of
loss. In some of its features, it is far in ad
vance of the preceding year, when in the old
house of worship. The contributions during
the year just closed to the various causes of
benevolence, in behalf of which appeal is
made to the church, amounted to $19,259.55.
This is exclusive of the regular expenses of
the Society, and in addition to a subscrip
tion of $60,000 that has meanwhile been
secured for the new church edifice.
There have been received to the Commu
nion, the past year, twenty-four by letter
and eighteen on profession of faith. Four
teen have been dismissed to join other evan
gelical communions.
The year has laid four more brave boys,
from its congregation, in soldiers' graves,
and their blood seals anew the devotion of
this people to the holy cause for which they
fought and died.
This is a noble and encouraging record,
and may well cheer the able and zealous
pastor, and justify his high expectations and
stirring appeals for still greater advances
made in his anniversary sermon. The Third
Church bids fair to be a standard bearer in
our Zion. May its example rouse the ener
gies of all who hear what, by divine grace,
under its present disadvantages, it has been
enabled to do for Christ.
OUR LIST OF NEW NAMES
Is daily increasing. In the Synod of Penn
sylvania, the effort for the increase of the
circulation has been vigorously commenced
by several of the Pastors, and the results are
in the highest degree encouraging. Rev.
Mr. Sterling, of Williamsport, with charac
teristic energy and promptitude, took up
the business personally, and in two weeks
sent us twenty new names with the pay in
full. Rev. J. G. Hamner has made up a
club of FORTY in the New Wharton St. Church,
within a very few days. Other churches
raise the number in Synod to one hundred;
and if those still to be heard from do pro
portionably well, the total of additions will
be one thousand or fifteen hundred instead
of five hundred. Will our friends not see to
it that this result is actually realized in the
ensuing six weeks ?
A venerable and beloved minister of the
other branch, who is a constant reader of
this paper, thus writes in reerfence to*the
'action of Synod.
" I was truly gratified to notice the very
appropriate and complimentary attention
which was paid to the American Presbyterian
by the Synod of Pennsylvania at its recent
sessions in Philadelphia. It was a just and
merited compliment and I hope it will not
terminate in mere words and resolutions."
A leading minister in another synod of our
church says :
"Most heartily will I . co-operate in any
effort to extend the circulation of your noble
paper in the bounds of our Synod. . . .
I'll give public and emphatic endorsement
to any man who may come amongst us in
behalf of your paper."
TUESDAY MORNING brings us no news of
importance. The rebel papers say that start
ling news may be expected of General Sher
man, but they do not go into particulars.
The next Union Prayer Meeting of our
churches will be field in Logan Sq. Church,
20th and Vine Sts., on Tuesday evening at
befor 8 o'clock.
PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1864.
THANKSGIVING DAY AND THE OHRIS-
The supplement which we issue with
this week's American Presbyterian, con
tains an appeal from the 'United States
Christian Commission for contributions
among the churches on the approaching
national thanksgiving day. The prin
ciples and work of this institution have
been so often laid before our readers in
these columns, that we feel they are
too well understood to need any further
word from us. The Commission con
template erecting one hundred and fif
fly-one chapel tents in the armies ope
rating against Richmond and Peters
burg, 'during the coining winter, and a
proportionate number in the Western
armies. This will require a large out
lay of money, and we feel assured that
whatever is needed will be furnished by
the diberality of our Christian people,
In addition to the appeal, the supple
ment. contains a variety of interesting
matter concerning :,he work of the
Commission in the field.
Among a population like the poor in
the English cities, every reduction in
the price of the Bible helps largely to
give it free course. A new edition has
been brought out which costs just
enough , to save the feelings of the reci
pient from the humiliation of beggary,
and just little enough to remove-from
the purchase all consideration of ex
pense. In England, the whole Bible
can now be had for sixpence sterling—
about twelve cents—the New Testament
for two pence, and the Gospels for a
penny.
Dar Persons receiving specimen copes of
the American Presbyterian are invited to
examine the contents and appearance of the
paper with a view to subscribing for it or in
troducing it among their friends. They will
"End a rich table of contents in the present
number. Rev. E. P. Hammond, the well-.
known Evangelist whose labors have been so
signally blessed of God in Scotland and in
this country, is a regular contributor to our
columns. So also are the Misses Warner,
authors of the Wide, Wide World, &c.,
the conclusion of one of whose admirable
stories is found on another page. They ex
pect to commence another immediately.
Rev. Dr. Gillett, author of " Life and Times
of John Huss," is also a regular contributor.
One of his articles on the Universalist Con
troversy, will appear in our neat. Our New
York readers will regard, with special inter
est, the valuable letters of our Rochester
correspondent " Genesee," who gives us
every week, the fresh news of the churches
in that large and important field.
The terms, and offers of premiums will be
found-in other parts of the paper.
During the past week, in the absence of
any very stirring military intelligence, little
besides besides the result of the election has
commanded the
.public attention. No one
of our readers needs to be informed that
this has terminated in the most stupendous
and promising triumph for the Union
which has occurred since the commencement
of the rebellion—a triumph not excelled in
the importance of its bearings upon the
future by the proudest victory which any of
our armies have won. Comments apart, we
here content ourselves with giving such
leading particulars respecting it as are now
in our possession.
FIRST in order and importance,Taxstnasr
LINCOLN IS RE-ELECTED. Under God's favor,
there is political salvation in that word.
SECONDLY, he is tremendously re-elected.
His majority of votes is more decisive than
that received by any other candidate for the
position since the days of Washington.
This is true, if we reckon it by the votes of
the electoral colleges ; and we think it is
true if reckoned by the popular vote. Ta
ken by the colleges, the result stands as

Kansas must be reckoned as wholly for

having been either withdrawn or feebly
supported. We place -it at the moderate
majority of 10,000. The whole majority of
Mr. Lincoln will-be about 350,000, or about
200,000 over his majority in 1860.

Congress who voted last winter fir the
amendment, and who was a candidate for
re-election, is elected,i Almost every one
who voted against it, and who was a candi
date for re-election is /defeated. Fernando
Wood, Cox, and PeOdleton retire to the
privacy to which Vallandigharn was consign
ed two years before. Zt may increase the
bitterness of their disloyalty, but it will
lessen their power for harm. '
FOURTHLY. New York State has declared
against secession and repudiated Gov. Sey
mour. < After the Ist of January, he joiLs
the illy-lustrous company just mentioned,
and gives place to one whose administration
will not be a series of counter-moves against
the national government, but will be like
that of Penn4lvania and other patriotic
States, a tower of strength to the Republic.
This victory is as surprising as it is gratify=
ing when we reflect that, unlike as it was in
Pennsylvania it was achieved by the rural
districts in the face of the crushing McClel
lan majorities in the large cities. New
York city, long governed by the most igno
rant of her population, inflamed by " Bour
bon '? and caring nothing for platforms pro
vided the nagur is left out, led off with a Mc-
Clellan majority of 36,793. To this Brook
lyn added 4,370, and Albany 2,476.. The
leading western cities, Rochester and Buffa
lo, failed to give the Union majorities hoped
from them, the former giving a slight, and
the latter a 500 McClellan- m.jority. His
aggregate majority in the cities of New
York, Troy, Albany, Brooklyn, Buffalo,
Utica, Schenectady, Hudson, Kingston
and Rochester, was the enormously heavy
one of .45,952. This the noble workers in
the counties obliterated, giving the State to
the Union, by a small majority—probably
about 6000.
FIFTHLY. Pennsylvania has largely in
creased her Union vote since the October
election. The increase on the home vote is
about 12,000. We have yet no summing up
of the soldiers' votes, but, as was expected,
they are mainly one way. . The majority for
Lincoln on the home vote will be I:Petween
8,000 and 10,000. The large cities in Penn
sylvania became the strength of the Union
—in fact saved the State. Philadelphia
(9501 Lincoln majority without the soldiers'
vote) and Pittsburgh and Allegheny cities,
(about 8000 do.) surpassing the whole home
vote majority in the rest of State.
The Result.—Howregeived by the Presi-
On Thursday evening following the elec
tion, the several Lincoln,ancl Johnson Clubs
of the. District of. Columbia called on Pre.si
dent Lincoln and gave him a serenade
in honor of his re-election. There was,
in addition, an immense concourse of, spec
tators of both sexes in front of the Execu
tive mansion. The firing of a field piece
was of frequent occurrence, adding to the
excitement of the occasion.
The President appeared at an upper win
dow, and when the cheers with which he
was greeted had ceased, he spoke as follows :
"It has long been a grave question wheth
er any government, not too strong for the
liberties of its people, can be strong enough
to maintain its existence in great emergen
cies.
"On this point the present rebellion has
brought our republic to a severe test, and a
Presidential election occurring in regular
course during the rebellion, has added not
a little to the strain. If the loyal people,
united, were put to the utmost of their
strength by the rebellion, must they not
fail when divided, and partially paralyzed
by a political war among themselves ?
"'But the election was a necessity. We
cannot have a free government without
elections, and if the rebellion could force us
to forego or postpone a national election, it
might fairly claim to have already conquer
ed and ruined us.
"The strife of the election is but human
nature practically applied to the facts of the
case. What has occurred in this case must
ever recur in similar , cases. •Human nature
wi,l not change. In any future great na
tional trial, compared with the men who
have passed through this, we shall have as
weak and as strong, as silly and as wise,
as bad and as good. Let us therefore study
the incidents of this, as philosophy to learn
wisdom from, and none of them as wrongs
to be revenged.- (Cheers.)
"But the election, along with its inciden
tal and undesirable strife, has done good,
too. It has demonstrated that a people's
government can sustain a national election
in the midst of a great civil war. (Renew
ed cheers.) Until now it has not been
known to the world that this was a pOssibil
ity. It shows, also, how sound and how
strong we still are. It shows that even
among candidates of the same party he who
is most devoted to the Union, and most op
posed to treason, can receive most of the
people's vote, (Applause,)
"It shows also, to' the extent yet un
known, that: we have more men now than
we had when the war began. Gold is good
in its place, but living, brave, patriotic men
are better than gold. (Cheers, and othei
dernonstrations of applause.)
"But the rebellion continues, and now
that the election is over, may not all having
a common interest reunite in a common ef
fort to save our common country ? (Cheers.)
" For my own part, I have striven, and
shall strive, to avoid placing any obstacle in
the way. (Cheers.) So long as I have
been here I have not willingly planted a
thorn in any man's bosom. While I am
deeply sensible to the high compliment of
a re-election, and duly grateful, as I trust,
to Almighty God for having directed my
country-men to a right conclusion, as I
think, for their own good, it adds nothing
to my satisfaction that any other man may
be disappointed or pained by the result.

differed with me to join with me in this
same spirit towards those who have?
"And now let me close by asking three
hearty cheers for our brave soldiers and sea
men, and their gallant and skilful comman
ders."
The three cheers were enthusiastically
given, accompanied by music and the sound
of cannon.
