They bear the music of "Homeward Bound." Respectfully, Far from the home of my heart's early pride— Onward I go, onward go ; Fearlessly stemming the great human tide,— Onward I go, onward go ; Madly and recklessly rushing along, Striving for right—oft enduring the wrong— Wildly I wander, thus ever my song— " Excelsior, onward go." Manfand oft the obstructions I meet,-- Still onward go, onward g. ; Ever undaunted, my poor willing feet Still (inward go, onwaril go ; Madly I strayed far away from the fold, Grappling with dangers forever untold, Hopefully wending my way titre' the world,— Still onward go, onward go. Jusner. and Hosea still ever my theme,— As on I go, on Igo ; Charity ever within me supreme,-- As on I go, on I go. Fain would I succor the weary, oppressed; Open my purse to the pour one distressed ; Strive a ith them that ev'ry wrong be redress'd, As on I go, on I go. Many the wrongs I endure from the world, Trudging along, trudging on; Since miture's flag I so proudly unfurled,— Trudging along, trudging on. Oh, what a sigh as I think of the wrong— Cruel, unnatural, unchristian wrong— Received from the world as I trudge along.— Trudging clung, trudging on. "Jinn's inhumanity to follow man,"— Mournfully true, mournful truth. Christian and Infidel cherish the plan,— Mournfully true, mournful truth.

All the institutions of the children of Israel were connected with God. They led them to think of God, and to reflect on Him. God prescribed their religion in all its ordinances and observances. lle constructed on the eternal princi ples of justice, wisdom, and benevo lence, the entire system of their politi • cal government. He organized one Commonwealth and placed all its members under the same Divine laws. The entire social policy of the Israel ites was constituted in harmony with the mind of the Eternal, and the rights and duties of man. Their political economy was ordained of God and in tended as a mode/ for the world. The frame-work of their social system and ' the externals of their religion led them to think of God, as an ever-ruling and ever-presiding Deity. The raiment that Israel wore, the water that well ed from the flinty bosom of the rock, of which they drank, and the "angels' food "• that fell avowal their camps, of which they ate, were designed to teach them the existence of a merciful, gra cious and loving God: The very boa se of the Jewish flimiliej were connec ted with God. The blood-stained lin tels and door-posts marked the Israel itish dwellings in Egypt; for when thee Angel of Death beheld the blood, he passed by, and smote all the first-born in the land, both of man and beast.— The land of promise was also connect ed with God : " The land shall not be sold for ever; for the land is_ mine; for ye are strangers and sojourners with sac" The Bible—God's own book—pro. claims loudly, distinctly and audibly, that the earth is the Lord's. Read yo, "And Moses said unto him, (Pharaoh,) so soon as I am gongout of the city, I will spread abroad my hands unto the Lord ; and the thunder shall cease, neither shall there be Any more hail ; that thou mayest know that the earth is the Lord's." Read also, "Behold, the heaven anti the heaven of heavens is the Lord's thy God, the earth also ; and all that therein is." Read another portion of the Word of the I4ord c "The earth is the J l ord's, and the fullness there of; the world, and they that dwell therein." The government of Israel was foun ded on. an equal agrarian law. The land was God's legacy to those who occupied and cultivated it, God gave them the entire land-in all its rights, advantages and appurtenances. It belonged to them as the occupiers and tillers of the soil. They inherited it from God—the sole Proprietor of all the earth.

In every state, government, or nation, there are two classes of men very apt to arise—the avaricious aristocracy, and miserable paupers. Now both these were prevented from arising in the theocracy of Israel. There arc men, covetous men, who, as a common sponge, absorb the profits of industry and toil. They spoliate others to enrich themselves. They amass riches from the sweat, aye, and from the blood of others. Thoy add house to house and field to field, and growing proud, become' like Nebuch adnezzar, win , when he looked upon Babylon, with its lofty walls and bra zen gates, its hanging gardens and glittering towers, exclaimed, in' the pride of his heart, " Is not this great Babylon, which I have built ?" - even so, this class of men, of covetous capa city, Nebuchadnezzar-like, proud in heart, and rich in wealth, are ever ready, on beholding their vast do mains, to exclaim with Selkirk of uld : "Tam monarch of all I sum cy. Of mr right thole is 10,10 to Men of this stamp could never have arisen in Israel, for God declared "the land is mine,—ye are strangers and so journers with me." I havO divided it among your tribes and according to your families, and however it may be sold or mortgaged, at the sound of the Jubilee trumpet it shall return to each family's own possession according to my division of the land. But again: there was another class of men that never could have arisen under the Commonwealth of Israel; I mean the miserable paupers, a race of beggars—the very bane of successful industry and national prosperity, which, like the locusts of Egypt, de vour the fruit of the land, blighting do mestic happiness and plenty, and leav ing poverty, discontent and desolation in their course. Families might be reduced to abject poverty for a time. They might be obliged to sell their possessions, `or be come bond-men and bond-maids, but the Jubilee trumpet proclaimed resto ration of ancestral property and liber ty to the captives. Let me notice Ist, the Jubilee ; and 2nd, its consequences. The Jubilee trumpet of old conveyed no articulate sound. It did not speak articulate words. It was the voice of the living man who breathed into it, that ct.uqed the vibration of the air whereby , the sound was conveyed.— The sound reached the spirit within, through the outward car ; for the trumpet's voice spoke audibly and in telligibly to the spirit. Even so the sound of the Gospel reaches the soul through the outer car. "Hear„ and your soul shall live." Hear Jesus say ing to the weary and the heavy-laden —"Come unto me and ye shall find rest." Hear him saying to the hungry soul—"I am the bread of life." Hear Hint saying to the sick—" They that be whole need not a physician, but they that be sick." Hear Him saying to the thief on the cross—" To-day shalt thou be with me in Paradise."— Hear Him praying for his very mur derers—" Father, forgive them, fur they know not what they do !" Hear Him fter his resurrection, saying to his ilisc4ples—"All power is given unto min Heaven and in earth. Go ye, therefore, and teach all nations, bap tizing them into the name of the Fa ther, and of the Son, and of the Holy -Ghost; teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded -on, and, lo ! I am with you always, even unto the end of the world."— Hear Him pleading in heaven, power fully, irresistibly S and all-prevailingly on behalf of all his people in every land and in every clime. "Him the Father heareth always." "He ever liveth to make intercession for us." Jesus sounds the Jubilee trumpet of the Gospel, and we are but "ambassa dors" for Him, beseeching you in His name to be reconciled unto God. The Jubilee trumpet sounded on the great day of atonement. "Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the Jubilee to sound on the birth day of the sev enth month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound throughout all your land." • The Gospel is an empty sound apart from the atonement of the Lord Jesui Christ. Apart from the finished work ofJesus, preaching is vain, and hearing is also vain. The Gospel is our Jubilee trumpet, sounding forth salvation, free and full, through our Lord•and Saviour Jesus Christ. It proclaims "liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound." It jubilates freedom, and directs the sin bound and Satan•led captives to look• for life and liberty and peace and joy, to Jesus, the mighty Deliverer. "If the Son make you free, you shall be free indeed 1" or as the poet has well said "ao is the freeman wbona the troth makes free, And all pro gimes bt,ide.” lIUNTINGDON, PA., WEDNESDAY, APRIL 15, 1863. . But the Jubilee trumpet sounded i -throughout all the land—oh ! how ear -1 nestly and joyfully did the Jewish slaves look forward to the year of Ju bike, when the sound of the trumpet throughout all the land would proclaim that the years of slavery were ended, and set the sons and daughters of bon dage free ! Oh ! how the peal of the trumpet would reverberate from the snowy tops of Lebanon down to the " ancient Ki shon "--oh ! how it would echo along the waters of Jordan to the utmost border even of Edom's land—oh ! how it would ring from Dan even to Beer sheba—proclaimi6g freedom to the bond-slaves, absolution to every debt or, and restoration of property to eve ry family. By vi,rtue of the Jubilee institution, all suspended rights were restored, and every family regained possession . of its ancestral inheritance, while the bond slave, the debtor, as well as every hired servant of the Jewish race obtained their liberty. - LIBERTY ! What a blessed word—a word of electric virtue. the birthright of every rational man ! Liberty ! not to one individual, family or tribe, but to "all the inhabitants of the land."— Oh ! if personal freedom be sweet, how much more "the glorious liberty of the children of God !" This is liberty, Which monarchs canna. grant, nor all the powers Of earth and hell confederate talco away; A ',belt', which persecution, frau Oppression, prisons, have no power to hind; - Which mho so tastes, con be enslav'd no muro 'Tis lihet ty of hearl, deris"d final luoven, Procured tt itli Ids Mood %tho gave it to ntankind, =1 By eltartet , sanctioned burn, Ity the unimpeachable and no fah o tth And [itemise of a God. Ilia other gifts All bear the Royal stamp, that speaks them Ills, And are august I—hut this transcends them all." Even so, the gospel, my dear read ers, proclaims "liberty--the glorious liberty of the children of God," the forgiveness of "our debts" through the Lord Jesus Christ, and the restor ation of a better inheritance than Par adisaic bliss, even " a heavenly," where we shall be put in the full possession of our everlasting habitation, behold the Captain of our salvation in his un clouded splendor and dismantled beau ty, andrmjiiT the immediate vision and fruition of God forever. „We proceed to notice secondly, the conseqUenees of the Jubilee; Ist, Liberty, and 2d, Restoration of Property: Liberty ! glorious sound ! ” And ye shall hallow," says God," the fifti eth year, and proclaimliberty through out all the land unto all the inhabi tants thereof." We know of no permanent and ra tional liberty apart from the gospel of Christ,. An open Bible and a pure faith are the only firm buttresses of free institutions. "Religion," says the eloquent Kossuth, the incarnation of Democratic principles—the Apostle of Liberty—a Protestant not only by birth, but also by ktinizietion, " Reli gion," says he, " is the only basis on which the broad development of free dom can rest." It is impossible, read ers, that either an ignorant or a vic ious people can be a free people. The rational principles of religion and the republican principle7s of government must be blended tog s ether, otherwise the latter cannot exist. Take, for example, -infidel France. In the year 1848 a Republican form of government was proclaimed by the people of that land. -Liberty-trees were Planted—a President elected— but alas! what a vast change has come to pass of late I The Republic no o more —the liberty-trees cut clown, (per haps to warn! the people,) and Napole on, " the shadow," a traitor to his country—a master in satanic villainy. And why all this ? Because the French soil is mixed with the rich soil of gospel truth. Row vastly different this land! But what are we tending to ? The foundation of American In dependence was laid by Protestants! —men well instructed hi the truths of the gospel—and the superstructure is what it is—a beacon-light to suffering humanity in other portions of the globe. We know what Liberty and Freedom is,—let 115 then beware of all such who are vio'ating every tie of hon or which bound us together, and who have brought us into a bloody conflict with those who we once loved as broth ers. They are determined to destroy everything which was once near and dear to them—even Liberty itself. We know what liberty is, therefore let us cling to that glorious Union in which we have lived for 85 years—uphold and defend it. The Commonwealth of ancient Isra el had justice for its foundation, free dom for its crowning stone, and hu man happiness for its glory. God was their Sovereign. God was their Law giver. God was Iheir Landlord. On the great day of Atonement, when the victim had been slain, the nigh Priest, the honored ono of the tribe of Levi, -PERSEVERE.- entered into the Holy of Holies, and sprinkled the blood upon and before the mercy-seat, and then followed his prayers for the people. On that day the jubilee proclamation of freedom sped throughout the land. The peel ing sound of the silver trumpet burst the lock of servitude, and brought back the loved one to the embraces of his family—a brother to the secret companionship of his 'sisters—a debt or from his prison -house, and the sold or mortgaged inheritance to its right ful possessor. Secondly. /?esto,wtion to Property.— And ye slnkll return every man unto his possession." If the land were equally divided among the inhabitants of any country in the world, there is not much likeli hood that it would remain long so di vided. There would be poor and rich. God's word assures us that " the poor shall never cease outof the land," an d o ur Lori himself declares to his immediate foilowers. "Ye have the poor always with you." The poor are not to be ‘7lespised be cause they are poor, nor are they to be robbed or plundered by lordly•oppres so2s. " Rob not the poor," says God, because he is poor; for the Lord wit: plead their cause, and spoil the soul of those that spoiled them." Road also, "The robbery of the wicked shall de stroy them, because they refuse to do judgment," or, as it is in the original, "justice." We also read," Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbor, neither rob him." The Continent of Europe is at pres ent convulsed with various plans for regeneration. The people arc groan ing under insufferable oppressions, ty ranny and bondage, and can appreci ate our own difficulties. The abso• lute, despotic, anti-Republican powers of Europe aro trembling. The cry is for liberty and equality—fin. the re generation of States and Empires and Nations—aye, for universal emancipa tion—and this cry is ringing through out all Europe, even from the German ocean to the Mediterranean sea—and from the striait. dandles. The 'greatest-statesmen - on both sides of the Atlantic are decided ly of opinion that Europe is on the eve of a general war. The approaching storm, will shake, we doubt not, with Titanic force, the ancient and lordly structures to their very centre, (for their hypocritical conduct towards the best government upon the face of the cart h,) and when-they shall totter and fall, as fall they will, unless they re pent of their conduct toward us, and when down, 0, God I may they never rise any more at all for evcr. The waves of discontent and popular feel ing have been assailing the " ugly rock " of despotism from year to year, as the steady flux and reflux of the tide the majestic cliff. Anti now, the ocean seems gathei4ng up its mighty billows that shalt ere long be discharg ed upon it with terrible fury, till OA shall be forced to succumb and then be buried forever in the bosom of the vastly deep." COALMONT, Pa. THE DRAFTED MEN AROUSED 1 They Echo the Resolves of the Vol unteers I At a mooting of the officers of the 176th Regiment Pennsylvania Militia, held March 26th, the following resolu tions were adopted unanimously, after which, upon being presented' to the non commissioned officers and privates of the whole regiment, were likewise adopted with the greatest enthusiasm, without a single dissenting voice: WHEREAS, We the officers of the 176th Regiment Pennsylvania Militia, now stationed at Beautbrt, South Car olina, citizens of Lehigh and Monroe counties, Pennsylvania, believing it due, not only to ourselves, but to our friends and neighbors at home, regard less of party, that we should give a public expression of our honest convic tions of duty towards the Federal Go vernment, which we have sworn to serve, and whose arm wo should strengthen, as well by our voices as our swords; And whereas, It has been apparent to every soldier in the field, that the enemy to the prosecution of the war, at home, not less than the open rebel in the field, is calculated to weaken the energies of the Republic in the strug gle for national life; therefore, • Resolved, That we, view with indig nation and contempt the continued movements of individuals at the North, having for their object the virtual sup pression of enlistments or drafts, by the cry of peace and conTromise, as well calculated, While it tends to Wea ken the efforts of the executive for the suppression of the rebellion, to strength en the rebels in their unholy endear trs to destroy the American Union. Resolved, That this Government has a rightful claim upon the allegiance of every citizen; and he who stands in the way of its rightful authority, and fails in his fealty thereto, by a mani fest opposition to its public acts for the suppression of the rebellion, is a traitor to the Government, and should be held in strict account therefor. • Resolved, that we view the proclam ation of the Presinent for the emanci pation of the slaves of rebels, and the subsequent action of Congress in the " Conscript Act," in arming the same for public service, as well calculated to invigorate and strengthen the nation al cause, by affording the black man the privilege of fighting for his liberty, while aiding by his willing co-opera tion, the loyal army in the suppression of the rebellion. Resolved, That we hail with joy the patriotic movements of loyal citizens in New York and other sections of the North, regardless of party, for the vigorous prosecution of the war; the 'patriotic speeches of those eminent IDemocrats, John Van Buren, James T. Brady and Judge Daly, at Cooper's Institute, New York, endorsing the acts of the last Congress, conferring extraordinary power on the President, and their deflantrebukes of treason in every shape and in all localities. Resolved, That while we hail with inexpressible pleasure the patriotic res ; olutions adopted by the loyal Legisla ture of Ohio, we burn with indignation at the cowardly and degrading ones passed by the Legislature of New Yu ' sey; and we feel deeply, mortified and chagrined at the base conduct of the lower branch of our Legislature, in refusing the use of their hall to those gallant patriots and Democratic Gov ernors—Johnson, of Tennessee, and t Wright of Indiana' _Resolved, That while we would not by implication efer relinquish our hon est comv ,:ctions of public policy and public duty 1n time of peace, yet, now, while all the Clergies of the nation should be concentrated towards a vig orous prosecution of Om war, all par ty,movements should be held in ahoy-- mice; that thus a united front may so appal the leaders of the reb.3lllon, as to lead them to see the hopelesoness of their cause, and to sue for peat:- and pardon. Resolved, That the vigorous legis lation of the last congress, for the rai sing of a revenue for the support of the Government and the army; for the raising of recruits to fill the reduced regiments now in the field, and to supply the places of those whose term of service will in' a few months expire, and in the pas sage of the "Indemnity Act," which gives immunity to the President for the arrest of traitors at the North, and which gives him the power in fu ture to :suspend the " writ of habeas corium," meets our__Learty approval, and while -these nets are well calcula te(77l-feajh the rebels that the Gov ernment-is in earnest, they will also impart confidence to the Union soldier as well as citizen, that the Federal arms will triumph, and tho Govern ment be restored to its rightful author ity throughout the length and breadth of the land. Resolved, That we, drafted men from Lehigh and Monroe counties, acknowl edging the right and necessity of the Government to draft her citizens in the present struggle, pledge our lives to the Government to enforce the con script laws, in any State wherein the same may be resisted.

Editors of the Harrisburg Telegraph : In forwarding you per mail this day a set of resolutions, adopted by my com mand, I neglected to state that my regiment is decidedly Democratic, there being but seven Republicans out of the thirty-six officers whose names are attached to these resolutions. The proportion of Democrats in the rank and file is still greater. During the night some prominent northern trai tors were hung in effigy and after wards burned. I trust the action of thlaregiment will be felt in the north, coming as it does from a regiment of drafted life-long Democrats. —lt is not necessary to comment on such testimony.

Camp near Falmouth, Va., Apr. X. (Correspondence of the Telegraph.] I take the liberty herewith to send you for publication, a preamble, reso lution and address from the 84th and 110th P. V., and 12th N. H. Whin tears, composing the 2d brigade, 3d di vision, 3d corps, Army of the Potomac. It had its origin with the - 84th ,P. V., was written by Col. S. M. Bowman, of that re,iiment, (now commanding the brigade,) and by him submitted to the 84th and 110th P. V., and 12th N. 11., and by then't, with acclamation, en thusiastically adopted and ordered to be sent forth, as their views and feel ings on the war and War matters. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, E. E. P. ErrEas, The volunteer soldier left home to Serve his country in the ar mies of the republic, to maintain that great and good Government, bequeath ed to us by our revolutionary fathers, encouraged and cheered on by the friends he left behind; And whereas, Before the final battle is fought or vic tory won, there are some who cry "peace " when there is no peace, and are ready to give up in despair, there by encouraging our enemies and in creasing our calamities; therefore, I?esoired, That the officers and sol diers of this brigade send to their friends and fellow citizens at home the following address, as e4ressive of their feelings and sentiments on the war: Fnends and Fellow Citizens:—We are here, as you all know.at the bid ding; of our beloved country; we came hither to assist by force of arms to m,2intain that Government, of which every man in it has an equal share.— It is yGur Government, our Govern ment, the Government of each of us, and the Government of all. But there is this difference: You have been con tent to remain at borne, in the enjoy ment of your accustomed avocations; we left homes and friends as dear to us as yours arc to you. You are con tent to carry on this war by force of your opinions; we have prepared to take up arms and meet the foe on the battle-field. You discuss the proper order of battle after a comfortable dinner; we fight the battles without dirrners7--You sleep comfortably, in your beds; the soldier sleeps on the cold, wet ground. You groan -nail grumble, but don't fight ; we fight with out grumbling ; and submit to' hard ships and meet death without a groan. You are free to express your opin ions about the war in which you take no active part; allow us who are in the field to express ours. When we left home you all bid us God speed; the men gathered round and cheered us, our mothers, sisters, wives and daughters, smiled amid their tears, and waved us on; even the little boys and girls waved their tiny flags, and ex pressing a noble and patriotic sense, sent up manly " huzzas' for the Union; guns were 'fired; the old banner with its stars and stripes floated from window and dome; every one seemed to say, go on, my brave countrymen; put down this wicked rebellion ; re-estab lish the old banner on every hill top, and if need be we will come to the res cue. We had hoped that the war would be short—that the misguided people of the rebellious States would soon lay down their arms and return to their duty and to their allegiance. But not so. They have only become more hostile as their wicked cause has become more desperate. Thus far the war has been carried on with a gentle hand on our part. It was impossible to comprehend at first the extent and magnitude of this re bellion. The Government has treated it like a kind and indulgent parent would treat a refractory child ; the pa rent has been content to exhibit the rod and to mingle kind words with gentle reproof; but this has only made the child more hateful, wicked and de fiant. The public sentiment of the country demand this moderation, un der the impression that the Southern people would ere long return to their senses. The recent elections in sever al of the loyal States indicated this sentiment by large majorities. But the leaders of the rebellion; instead of appreciating this unparalleled generosi ty, tell us, " We spit upon your peace offerings, we despise you, we defy you; we ask no peace short of our subjuga tion or a Southern Confederacy." They tell us again, " We are your masters, and there shall be no peace except such as we shall dictate at the capitol at Washington with our armies thundering at your gates." They tell us, as they did at the outset, " You are knaves and cowards, and five of you are not equal to one of us in battle and in their incomprehensible arro gance and sejf-deceit they still expect to beat the reveille and have roll-call at the base of Bunker Hill monument ! Under these circumstances we are more than ever for the war. We are now, henceforth and forever in favor of carrying on the war in dead earnest. We are opposed to all at home who oppose the war and cry " peace " when there is no peace, and can be no peace except at the expense of our national ity, our honor and our manhood_ We admonish all such as* counsel peace and offer their sympathies to our enemies, that they are making a damning record for themselves and their decandants for all time to coine, and Wq furthermore suggest most re-, spectfully, to all Who feel competent to criticise the war, and tell us how bat- "ck-mxs JOB PRINTING OFFICE.
