Yellowplush vs. Preachers
SICSSRA E 1 ,170114 -The aim% elB the eap•
two of an article which lately appeared in
the columns of the • Central Press," pur
porting to have carne from the classic pen of
Mr. Charles lush. Such is the spii
it %%Inch breathes thrmigh the entire article,
that I think it should not be permitted to
pass without receiving idiot it justly de
serves the ignited eniUl 111 nn intelli, , ent
and dietitian Collllllunity. Such a produc
tion should color at any tune and from any
individual with a bail grace' but especially
so from Mr Yellowpleisle for having rarely
for mouths past visited the Sanctuary, he
Is totally unqualified to form a correct esti
mate either of the. Preacher or the influence
of his preaching. And if preaching be noth
ing more than talking for a saliry," as
31r Y tells us, then he is the last man to
complain Kinee MO pri:CIOUS little of it has
tver been' supplied limn his pee ket. Rut
when Mr Y. makes the unqualified declara
tion that the " ref aerie nothing more
!lion disappointed politicians, who were mot,.
rut to preaching es the hope of destroying the
in i ive r of one Church on earth, in order to
burro pp another, of which they were lo be the
/cadets," elthe, exhibits to the public an
amount of ignorance totally empardonahle
in the editor of even a pocket country Jour
nal. or OLIO manifests a reckless Osregard
for"tho facts in. the ease, that at once unfits
I him for the post. The assertion of Mr. Y.
in regard to the reformers is without the
shadow of foundation in truth. What'
Luther, Melancthon and Calvin! these
great and holy men of whom the " world
was not worthy " " nothing but disappoint
ed politicians," acting entirely from selfish
priudiples (?) The expression of such sen
timents in this enlightened ago of the world,
rather provokes pity for their author than
a disposition-ha refute 11. Pm Rnt with what
decided sublimity Mr. Y. discourses about
" Nature's preaching." Gao would almost
,ipard.on the thought) think that he was
talking fora " salary " or for" bunkum,"
or for both. " Let creation preach and Yid
lowpfueh re good for a pew.' Mae not cre
ation been preaching ever since Mr. Yellow
plush was born, and for thousands of years
beftwo, - and yet has - he or any-other-mon-been
converted to God through it 1 The poor In
dian may "hear God in the thunder, and
seo Ihrn in the lightning," and
_yet remain
a savage notwithstanding. St. Paul says :
For after that in the wisdom of God the
world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased
God by the foolishness of preaching to save
them that behove."
Now the great design of preaching is the
salvation of teen, but, does not the first
drone of this passage clearly assert that
nature and reason combined, are insufficient
to the task IThere can be no salvation w,itli•
out laith, , u6 their cau be no faith without
Act ! Man, therefore, needs an instructor
—but he is so constituted physically. men.
tally and morally. that ho can only be in
structed by one of hia own species. Hence
God designs milking ono man instrumental
in the conversion of a brother man. The
get work of preaching- the Gospel through
od%
inert are to be saved, is committed
' to earthen vessels." Ye have Moses and
the prophets," a living though human min
istry, if ye will not hear these. neither will
ye be peranaded, though •• nature may
thunder ''and reason dictate, or one arise
from the dead. And though mr. Y. may en
tertain a very belittling opinion of preach
ers, I will yen lure the assertion, that they
is a class have done :nore fur the elevation
of the race, and--fes--the salvation of testi,
then all other means and causes combined.
I hope that no moro sentiments so decidedly
deistical as those in the article at which we
have briefly glanced will be inflicted upon
this community by Mr. Yell,owplush.

:LOCAL AND PERSONAL
Punta° lAterptur.s. —Next Tuesday evening
is the time fixed on for the cottimencemeut
of ii series of pub lic lectures in this place.
Doctor Elder of 'Philadelphia, will deliver
the introductory leetn re:and no better se
lection could have been made for the occa
sion. Ile is a gentletnVa of e po.prdinary at
tammentS but man of profound learning,
who lakes 14'11Iva - thong the most proudent
and distinguished men of the country. For
the first time lectures of thiicluirscter are
about to' be introduced here, and we know
the intelligence of our people will appreciate
them. Wo know they have als aye been
ready to aid in diesetainstAng useful infor
mation, and will not deviate from a course
of policy for which they have hitherto been
remarkable. No opportrmity Alin be pre
sented. in which they can give a better ova.
dence of their appreciation of such measures.
And it seems natural to suppose that the ex
tensive cultivation of intellectual taste, and
the encouragement of scientific pursuits,
would excite in numberless minds the facul
ties of observation and reflection. These
faculties brought into lively exercise, are
slue to generate new discoveries, thus pav
ing the road, and leading man by a sure and
pleasant path, Up to that heighth of intellect
ual excellence, to which he by his organize
' lion is wont to follow.
These lecturel are under the impervision
of the Rd!ciente Friicitiles, which') beautiful
Company n ill appear in the Court room in
undresi uniform, and will be accompanied
by their celebrated Brass [land. The Ora
torio Suing nand, of Bellefonte, will also be
present, and favor the audience with some
excellent music both before and after the
lecture
We are requested to say that tickets of
admission can be procured it the Drug
Stores, and also at the Book Store in this
place
We hope So Commendable an enterprise
wili v be rewarded The first lecture occurs
during Court week, and a fin% opportunity
will be presented to the peopleoT Centre coun

money to raise to complete the enterprise,
and it is earnestly hoped that every person
interested in the progress or Centre county,
will conic forward and discharge their duty,
by making liberal subscriptions to the road.

of stock holders, which fact is becoming
more generally understood.
On the Western di% ision workmen are bu.
tidy engaged in pushing forward such work
as had been left nnflinsheil for several ;moths.
The ties in many plarea sir already on the
ground, and the iron is contracted oft very
favorable terms. All that will be required
to complete the enterprise speedily, hill Ise
to put forth the tight kind of energy. An
opportunity is now offered in which all can
render themselves useful, and we await the
result with some degree of anxiety, because
we feel Tterested in every measure of impor
tance to the community.
We have men in Bellefonte who are weal
thy enpugh to build this road without incom
venience to their individual business, and
who we Is lieve are willing enough to do it.
A hearty co operation among the friends of
the enterprise, and the shrill u Instill of the
