By order of the Dcm. Co. Com., JOIIN S. SCIIELL, Chairman. Hunter and Abolitionism. General David Hunter, commanding the "Department of the South," (which includes the states of South Carolina, Georgia and Florida,) has issued from his headquarters at Hilton Head, S. C., a proclamation abol ishing negro slavery in the three states over which his military superintendence is author ized to lie extended. The proclamation .reads as follows: "HEADQUARTERS DERAIMI'T or THESOITH, J HILTON HEAD, S. C., May F, *62. j "GENERALORDERS, No. 11.—The three States (•f Georgia, Florida and South Carolina, com prising the Military Department of the South, having deliberately declared themselves no long *r under the protection of the United States of America, and having taken up arms against the United States, it became a military necessity to declare them under martial law. This was ac cordingly done on the 2.lth day of April, 1802. Slavery nnd martial law in a free coun try are altogether incompatible; the persons in these States—Georgia, Florida and South Car olina—heretofore held as slaves, are therefore declared forever free. [Official.] "DAVID HUNTER, "Major General Commanding, "ED. W. SMITH, acting Adjutant Gen." When preparations were first going for ward in the North to carry on the present war, we charged it upon the "Republican" administration that it was their design to make it a war for the abolition of negro sla very. The charge was distinctly and em phatically denied by the organs of Mr. Lin coln, and we were, triumphantly referred to the inaugural of the President and the res olutions passed by Congress declaring that the wax was not waged "for the purpose of overthrowing or interfering with the rights or established institutions of the Seceded States," as a full and complete refutation of the indictment thus brought ngainst them. Hut the sequel shows that we were right, after all Congress and the President have seized the opportunity which the war has given them, to liberate the slaves in the Dis trict of Columbia, and according to Gov, Letcher, of Virginia, that State alone has lost, since the beginning of the war, nearly fifty millions of dollars in slave property! And now, to make the assurance of an Al>- Akhtion war doubly sure, Gen. Hunter lias issued his pronunciamento setting free one million slaves, belonging indiscriminately to rebels and l r nion men, and this upon the ground that slavery and martiid law are in- compatible. Though Hailed;, Butler and Dix have till held martial sway In States where negro slavery exists, without detri ment to the interests of the Government, or the "peculiar institution;" though the Pres ident was compelled to modify Fremont's emancipation order, which was not half so bold and sweeping as tliis of Gen. Hunter; though the President and Mr. Seward ex purgated Cameron's report of the proposi tion to free and arm the slaves, which it ori ginally contained; and though the ostensi ble and outward policy of the Administration Lis been to discountenance any open and undisguised interference with slave property (except in the District of Columbia); yet tlijs Abolition general, burning with the tin holy fanaticism of his political sect, eagerly avails himself of the most flimsy pretext to jwocluiiu freedom to the negroes within the Confines of his department. We have nei ther space, nor patience, to dilate upon the enormity of this assumption of a power which is granted nowhere in the Federal or in any State Constitution, and which can never be justified, except on the ground that "might makes right," and that the soldier is dictator to the citizen. We shall only take the liberty, at present, to enter our pro test once more against the conversion of the federal army into an engine for the abolition of negro slavery. If the war is to be wa ged for the purpose indicated by Gen. Hun ter's proclamation, the sooner we know it the better. The people of the North do not intend to pay twenty hundred millions of dollars to furnish a set of madmen at Wash ington, or elsewhere, the means wherewith more effectually to dissolve the Union, mere ly to obtain the cheap and delectable pleas ure of taking to their hearthstones three mil lions of stupid and bestial negroes. They look with intensest anxiety for the action of the President in regard to the conduct of 1 lunter. They hope and pray for a revoca tion of his abolition order; aye, they de mand that the miserable fanatic who has ap plied the. torch afresh to the temple of our liberties, shall be removed from his command and placed where his political madness can no longer endanger the public safety. "Will Mr. Lincoln be equal to the emergency? W ill he, for once, have the moral courage to meet the issue fairly and fully and with out shifting, or evasion? We can scarcely hope for a "consummation so devoutly to be wished." — The Washington Intelligence Office. Secretary Stanton has lately issued the following order: OFFICI MILITART St'PRItVJSOR OF TBLEQUAFU, I WASHINOTOM, D. C., May 6. t To th* Military Operator at Cairo : SIR: AS loon NJ nsws is received of the battle expected to take place at or near Corinth, you will send to this office abstracts of the same, together with the source from which they were derived, and not allow any reports to he transmitted from the of fice at Cairo until the War Department gives per mission. Ey order of E. S. SANKORD, Military Supervisor of Telegraph. It would seem—-judging from this extra ordinary arrangement—that the Secretary of \V or lias established an Intelligence Office in his department, in which he hopes to mo nopolize. the entire business of the quid nuncs and newsboys. "Abstracts" of the news arc to be sent to the War Department and the telegraphic censor is to "allow no reports to be transmitted until the War De partment gives permission!" Now, in the name of all that is free and intelligent, what does this of news puf upon us, even by the direct act of the Administration? Can it be possible that Secretary Stanton has been manufac turing some of the Jute, reported victories out of electricity and copper wire ? The people will not brook this presumption upon their intelligence much longer. They are to pay the piper apd they want to know what kind of music he makes. It is their right to know whether we have victory or defeat, and they will not be satisfied with the siftings from Mr. Stanton's Intelligence Office, or any news that must be "doctored" before they can be permitted to know it. We want no more Pittsburg Landing stories. Piety in Danger. "Oh that we had a minister hero now like him!" If any person is curious to know where this language occurs, they can find out by read ing the editorial columns of the last issuo of the Bedford papers; and it is hardly necessary to state that it is not to be found in those of the Gazette. It seems that the preachers of Bedford are of as little account in the estimation of the person who makes use of the above quoted language, as the "improvements" and "enterprise" of tho unfortunate town. He sighs for other preach ers ; his spiritualized, almost ethereal nature is too harshly jarred by the crude and indigestible sermons at present administered to his religious stomach. In pity for this distressed churchman, our ministers ought to resign, so that in the stead of each one of them there might bo a duplicate of the reverend abolitionist for whom his sanc tified soul so fervently yearneth. It would be a great loss to the church, and altogether the fault of the preachers, if this pious individual were to "fall from grace," merely because he can have no abolitionist to preach for him. IN HONDURAS Invalids afflicted with Scrofula visit the streams that have drained from the wild lands where Sarsaparilla grows. It is found that the waters become impregnated with the medicinal virtues of this drug, and the natives drink it, bathe in it, and live on it for weeks. Whatever its effects, these "ivater ing-plaeef' have a reputation not inferior to out own S:;ratoga, and great numbers surely obtain relief at them from eruptions and ulcerations.' Yet I find all classes have more confidence in Dr. Ayeris Extract of Sarsaparilla, than in the impregnated waters or any compound of tho root that they can make. Those who can af ford to buy it, do so, and it is in very gonend use here, curing them surer and quicker than they can got relief without it. Not a few of our staple products go thus to foreign lands, are j there manipulated by scientific or artisan skill, j end then come back for our consumption and! use.

The ser vices will be conducted, it is supposed, by Rev'ds. D. D. Clark, T. K. Davis, and R. F. Sample. BuKOLARY.—The house of Mrs. Wag ner was burglariously entered, one night last week, and some six or seven dollars (all the rea dy money about the premises) were stolen there from. There seems to be quite a business do ing in this line, about here, just now. ——o— — % NEW FANCY STORE.—Messrs Shuck Brothers (as will be seen by reference to our ad ■ vertising columns) are about to open out a new fancy store in the splendid brick building lately erected by them immediately West of the old stand of S. and W. Shuck. The new es tablishment is to be under the supervision of a lady who has hud a long experience in the busi ness in the city of Philadelphia. Our lady read ers will doubtless find it to their advantage to give the new fancy store an early call. IMPROVEMENTS.—Our tasty friend, Col ill Loyer, has just given the front of his fine es tablishment, a new yoat of paint, giving it quite a bright appearance. Our neighbor across the way, Mr. Cessna, has also beautified and improv ed his residence. The Presbyterian "Manse," on East Main street, lately erected, and the new house of Mr. W. Shuck, on West Pitt street, are fine structures and add very much to tho beauty of the town. Truly, "we are a groat and growing people." 0 DISTINGUISHED VISITOR. —We had the pleasure, a few days ago, of making the ac quaintance of Dr. MeClellan, of Philadelphia, brother to the great military commander who now holds so prominent a place in the public mind. Dr. MeClellan was on a professional vis it to o'ir place, and made many friends here during his brief stay. The Dr. is an excellent physician, being, doubtless, well grounded in Constitutional remedies, as he is a firm and posi tive Domocrat. ——o— OPERATION.—Our readers will remember that we noticed, some three months ago, the occurrence of a serious acci dent to Ho n. W. T. Daugherty, of this place, by a fall upon the ice. It is to lie regretted that it has been found necessary to remove the injured limb. On the 18th inst., the operation was skillfully performed by Dr. MeClellan, of Philadelphia, assisted by the attending physi cians, Drs. Watson and Compiler, of our town. Wc arc glad to learn that the Judge is doing well, and that his numerous friends cherish the hope that lie will speedily recover. —o — GEH. REF. CLASSIS. —The Mercersburg Classis convened in this place on Friday eve ning of last week. This body is composed of all L the ministers in the. German Reformed church, in the counties of Franklin, Bedford and parts of Huntingdon and Blair, together with a lay dele gate from each pastoral charge The opening ser mon was preached by the Rev. Jacob ITassler, of Martinslmrg, Blair county, after which the classis organized by electing tho Rev. B. Bails man, of Chamliershurg, president for tho ensu ing year. On Snturday morning a number of standing committees were appointed and the Classis proceeded to the transaction of its usti-. al business. Divine service was held frequent ly during its sessions. On Sabbath the com munion of the Lord's Supper was celebrated; the number of communicants being unusually large. The several pulpits in the town were also occupied by members of the Classis on the Sabbath. On Monday morning tho sessions were resumed; several of the standing commit tees reported and quite a number of items of business was transacted. On the evening of Monday a missionary meeting was held, when interesting addresses weredelivered by the pres ident of the Claris and elder William Heyser, of Chambersbnrg. On Tuesday morning the 1 sessions were again resumed. In the afternoon : at half past five o'clock, having finished their business, the Classis adjourned to meet in Mar- . tinsbnrg, Blair co., in May, 1803. The meeting was one of much harmony, none of those unpleasant and unhappy di (Ter ences occurring which sometimes spring up to mar the peace of ecclesiastical bodies. r*RKs. GEN.

From the Nero York World May 15. The country will learn with profound aston ishment that the correspondents of newspapers will not he permitted to telegraph an account of the coming battle at Corinth after it has taken place until the report is first revised by a milita ry censor at Cairo. Mr. Stanton is evidently determined to doctor the news before it is given to the country,but why he should want to do so is a mystery that passes comprehension. If we arc beaten, the fact, must come out. It cannot bo concealed. Tf we are victorious, the. soon er it is known the 1 >etter. There is no ground for saying that the reports of newspaper cor respondents will not be correct. They have no toriously been so in every instance hitherto. If they have differed from the official reports, so much the worse has it been for the official reports, for when the truth regarding past battles has all come, out, it has been the former, not the lat ter, which were confirmed. The poor excuse that these reports might give aid and comfort to the enemy is too obviously absurd to be for a moment entertained. What the effect of such an order as this upon the stock market must ho is apparent. It is to be presumed tlintJVlr. Stan ton contemplated that painful contingency before issuing it. If not, ho has less shrewdness than j his admirers suspoet him of. [For the Bedford Ga/tttt.] „ A Preacher on the Stand. MR. EDITOR: 1 am one of tlioso who believe in the rule of conduct laid down in the old latin proverb, u iV sutor ultra crepidam," ''The shoemaker should not go beyond his lastor, in pluiner language, every man ought to mind his own business and let that of other people alone. And I consider this precept especially applicable to preachers of the Gos|>el. Their business is to preach "Christ and him crucified;" to make known to men the glad tidings of human re demption ; to point out the narrow way which leads to heaven; not to prate of systems of sec ular Government, nor to go about dabbling in politics, counseling and encouraging rancorous disputes, helping to breed violent difi'erences of opinion, and thus become instrumental in the eternal destruction of many immortal souls. I have been led to these general observations by the recent publication of some extracts from a letter said to have been written by Rev. >S. Barnes, formerly pastor of the M. E. Church of this place. The portions of Mr. Barnes'let ter which are published, read as follows: "You eny you are glad that I am still true to the Republican cause, and better still, to the Union. Aye—When lam false to my country, or to those constitutionally appointed to admin ister its laws, or to a President as sound and true and honest as Abraham Lincoln and his eminently just and prudent administration, then let my right hand forget its cunning and my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth. Why, sir, 'The Powers that be arc ordained of God; whosoever, therefore, resisteth the power, re sisteth the ordnance of God, and they that re sist shall receive to themselves damnation.'— Romans, 1.1, 12. "Could 1 then be a Christian if I were to re bel or even sympathise with rebellion, if to rebel is to ' resist the ordnance of God? Can a Chris tian innocently resist the ordnance of God, or in any way countenance or sympathise with it in others I Why, sir, Loyalty, nay more, Patri otism, is a part of my religion, taught me in God's word. "Moreover, I should betray my commission as a minister of the Gospel, did I not go further, and as commanded, 'Put the people in mind to be subject to principalities and powers, and to obey magistrates,'—and to do this by example as, well as by precept.—Tit us 3, 1, and Peter 2, 13. "As to 'exiiediency,' I know no such word, either as a Christian or a minister, when God so unequivocally commands." I presume that Dir. Barnes did not intend his letter to be published. If he did, I have mista ken the, man altogether, as I had supposed him to he too shrewd to permit his writings to go into tho hands of the printer without first sub mitting them for revision to some one who un derstood orthography and the rudiments of En glish Grammar. But I suppose the appearance of my clerical friend in his shabby English, might be accounted for by tiie over-heated zeal of the patriotic personage to whom the letter was written. Or if that personage belongs to the same class of individuals of which anotiicr of Dir. Barnes* particular friends and correspon dents in this place is a distinguished member, the act of indiscretion which gave publicity.to the letter, might be traced to the communicative in fluences generally attributed to five or six glas ses of lager. But lam not disposed to carp at the Reverend gentleman's grammatical and or thographical inaccuracies, though such compar isons as "a President as sound and true and hon csf'as Abraham Lincoln, and his eminently just and prudent Administration," such syntactical anomalies as, "Can a Christian innocently resist the ordnance of God, or in any way counte nance or sympathise with it in others," and such spelling as "ordnance" for ordinance, are tempt ing subjects for critical* dissection. I shall pass theso little fuiilts and proceed to the discussion of the general object and tendency of the publication of Mr. Barnes' letter. 1. The design of the person who pave this letter into the. hands of the printer, was political. Ilis object was to bolster up the sinking fortunes of Mr. Lincoln's administration. lie did not put it in print for the purpose, of converting sin ners unto righteousness, but to turn members of the M. E. Church unto Abraham Lincoln. He did not publish it in order to accomplish any re ligious end, but to give moral tone to the con duct of the political party at present in power. If any one will undertake to invert these alle ; gations, we should like to bo shown a single line in the letter calculated to draw men from the things of this world unto those of a better. The letter is altogether about politics and even goes so far as to name the party to which tho writer adheres. It follows, therefore, likewise, that Mr. Ilnrnes, in writing the letter, could not have had any religious purpose in view, and, conse quently, that he has descended from the dignity and sanctity of his high calling to draggle his ministerial robes in the filth of party politics. Li this respect Mr. Barnes is a cobbler who has gone "'beyond his last;" and it would have been much more to his credit as a Christian minister, and, perhaps, much more for the benefit of the person to whom his letter was addressed, if he had written a little more about the Redeemer's kingdom and a little less about that of Abraham Lincoln. 2. As to the tendency and effect of Mr. Barnes' letter, it is easily seen that they will be unfavorable to the cause of religion. The ex ample set by the writer will be followed by oth er ministers, and soon the spiritual interests of men will be accounted of no greater importance i than the affairs of parties and political platforms. Tho st...ly of party doctrines and parly schemes will divide tho preacher's time with the search ing of the Holy Scriptures. The political ros trum will steal away the thought, and attention due alone to the sacred desk. Then, certain as the night succeeds the (Jay, will follow the deg radation of the ministerial office and the intro duction of bitter feuds into the church, whilst schism and confusion will end the last, sad chap ter in the history of this new politico-religious reformation. Again, such championship of the corruptions of party as that contained in Mr. Barnes' letter, is certainly calculated to bring the Christian minister into disrepute. Mr. Barnes tells us that Mr. Lincoln's administration is "just and prudent," ami yet he must have known that high officials connected with that administration have defrauded the Government out of millions of dollars and that after it was proved that they had thus violated their trust, Mr. Lincoln either retained them in office, or removed them from one place of responsibility but to transfer them to another. Mr. Barnes must have known that a Republican Congress jiassed a vote of censure upon Mr. Lincoln's late Secretary of War and presont Minister to Russia, and that a Republi can Investigating Committee exposed the ex travagance and corruption of Mr. Lincoln's present Secretary of the Navy. When a preach er of the Gospel can go so far as to become tho defender of Simon Cameron, aivl lus confreres, what status can we assign him as a Christian minister? We leavo the question to be answer ed by those who love an honest and upright ad ministration of the Government. But, if Mr. Barnes' interpretation of the Scriptural quotations made by him, were cor rect, what would become of human liberty, of the Declaration of American Independence, yen, of the very Administration which ho so greatly admires? According to his view of St. Paul's doctrine on the subject of submission to "the powers that be," the American Revolution was an enormous and never to be expiated sin, the fathers of the Republic a horde of rebellious traitors, and Mr. Lincoln, who now sits in the chair of Washington, is a representative of ori ginal treason who shall "receive unto himself damnation." If Mr. Barnes is correct on this subject, the serfs of Russia are doomed to sla very forever, and Ireland is bound to her English oppressors with chains which the hand of man (hires not sunder. But the intelligent reader will at once perceive the loose generalization with which my reverend friend tries to crown Mr. Lincoln with a divine right to rule the Ameri can people. The Apostle does not mean to teach that we are bound to submit to rulers who gov ern tyrannically or abuse their regal or official powers and prerogatives. The exercise of the right of revolution is not forbidden iti any por tion of the Old or New Testament. On the oilier hand, according to the most learned com mentators, it is tacitly acknowledged, especially when the ruler violates a compact entered into by himself and his people. I can do no better than to add, in conclusion, the remarks of Dr. Adam Clark, on Romans 13, 12, quoted by Mr. Barnes, hoping that if what I have written may prove of no benefit to the reader, at least Dr. Clark's clear elucidation of Mr. Barnes' quota tion from Paul, will instruct the people that des potism finds no shield nor strong tower in the revealed will of the Almighty. Frcnn Clark's Commentaries, vol. 4 , p. 150. "In all nations of the earth, there is what may he called a constitution, a plan by which a particular state or country is governed; and this constitution is less or more calculated to pro mote the interests of the community. The civil governor, whether he he elective or hereditary, agrees to govern according to that constitution. Thus, wc may consider that there is a compact and consent between the governor and the governed, and in such a case, the potentate may be consid ered as coining to the supreme authority in the direct way of God's providence; and as civil government, is of God, who is the Fountain of law, order and regularity; the civil governor, who administers the laws of a state according to the constitution, is the minister of God. •#*# Nothing can justify the opposition of the sub jects to the ruler, but overt attempts, on his part, to change the constitution, or to rule contrary to the laics. When the ruler acts thus, he dissolves the compact between him and his people; lii.s authority is no longer binding, because illegal: because lie is acting contrary to the laws of that constitution, according to which, on being rais ed to the supreme power, he promised to govern. This conduct justifies opposition to his govern ment." ' SINCERITY. - . .. i .. ■■■■■g COUNTY CORRESPONDENCE. MORRISON'S Covic, May loth, 18'j2. Mr. Editor : £)ur local news is somewhat scat tered, though not to say scarce. It is not our ob ject in opening a correspondence from this sec tion of Bedford county, to laud our locality to the skies, by dragging others into significance, as Hantlius, the Sclicllsburg correspondent of the Bedford Inquirer, lias done, by rearing Scliclls burg on the ruins of St. Claiwtville. Wc oc cupy a position here, which is "Never elated while one man's oppressed ; Never dejected, while another's blessed." MOONLIGHT, a correspondent of the same pa per has emitted a few dim rays, (owing their dimness perhaps to the dense smoke which lately overhung the place,) from Pnttonsvillc and the fag ends of Morrison's Cove, in an article con sisting mostly in a description of frogs, hay scales, &e., and as the readers of the Inquirer are scarce, the publication of news from this vicinity lias not been made general. The war news here as well as in every other section of the country has the ascendency at this time. In the burying ground, near Oberton in in Middle Woodbury, sleep side by side, the re mains of three brave soldiers of Captain Bris bnn's Company. First was brought there the body of Alexander Croft, who died, as you know, in Bedford. Next, were sent home the remains of Philip P. Croft, who fell, whilst bravely de fending his .country's cause on the bloody field near Winchester. And lastly, in care of his brother Daniel, was brought to his father's res idence, the hotly of George Bowman, who died at Winchester, of typhoid fever. The inter ment of the bodies of those deceased soldiers, was attended by large and respectable crowds of people. The funeral services on each occasion were performed by Rev. Stock, of Woodbury, whose zeal, as a minister, has won for him many ar dent friends. I would have taken thclibertyof stating that much just credit has been awarded to Mr. Val entine Stockman, of Bedford, who with driver, two horses and wagon, conveyed the body of George Bowman together wit h his brother from Bedford to Wntcrstrect a distance of eighteen miles, for the small sum of three dollars, however much this liberality may detract from the charac ter of the man, who brought the same corpse and passenger from Cumberland to Bedford, a. distance of thirty miles, for which he asked twen ty dollars and actually took fourteen dollars, all the money which Daniel Bowman, the soldier in attendance with tho corpse, had. SCHOOLS. —So far as the number of scholars that attend school during tho summer, will jus tify the employment of a teacher, the schools are kept in operation. The Misses Yonnklnaro teaching school in the town of Woodbury, it is said, with admirable success. Miss Barihelow has charge of the school on Pleasant Hill, South of Woodbury and Miss Bishop is teaching a school in the stone school house near Potter's mill. Other schools may be in operation in Middle Woodbury district of which I have not been informed. We wish these lady teachers an enjoyment in their present vocation that will induce them to continue in the cause, Which they have so earnestly espoused. In South Woodbury district, there are but two schools open at present. Mr. Spcacc is teach ing a flourishing school in Pattonsville, (I hope MOONLIGHT will forgive us the unintended intru sion,) and Mr. Williams is doing justice, in "roar ing the tender thought," in a pleasantsite, near the village of Enterprise. These gentlemen are working teachers and I think ali who entrust i, i children to their care, will be amply romunera -1 i ted for well placed confidence. SPRING.
