The following official despatch,confirm ing.the victory in Tennesseeltas been re ceived at 1.46 d-quarters. FaasKtmr, Tenn., ,Nov. 30, 1864. Major General Thomas :—The enemy made a heavy, persistent attack with alout two corps, commencing about 4 o'clock in the afternoon-and lasting until after dark. He was repulsed at all points with very heavy loss, probably 5,040 to 6,000 men. Our loss is probably not more than one tenth of that number. We captured a bout 1,000 men, including one 13rigmlier GeneraL [Signed] Maj.-Gen. Sehateld. The above brief despatah from 111laj, General Schofield has jtist beeq received but no particulars are yet given. It ap pears that Hood has net with a terrible repulse. His army has been estimated at about thirty thousand men. We doubt whether he will venture upon anoth:r engagement after being so badly defeat. ed. We hope that General Thomas will not allow the victory to stop here,but pur sue anti destroy Hood's army. THE NEWS. In the Army of the Potomao the us ual picket. firing is reported. The subscription to the 7:30 /,..kark last week amounted to 83,500,000. Geo. Sherman's capture of Macon and Milledgeville is confirmed by a statement made by Roger A. Pryor. August; it is further stated, has probably been cap tured, and there is nothing serious to ha pede.Sherman's march to the sealacmrd. Mr. Pryor further says that with the possession of Augusta, the south will be cut ofir from Richmond, and no troops can be sent to reinforce Savannah. A fire occurred in New York, on Wed nesday, said to be the work of inecuda rice, in the lumber yard of Ogden & Co., in Hubert street, One-third of a block of buildings was destroyed. Among the sufferers were a,nuwber of families who occupied the dwelling adjoining. The loss is estimated at 8100,000. Phosphorus was used to fire the property, and it ie.believed that the object was to destroy the extensive government ware house adjoining, where immense quanti ties of army clothing are stored. An official report of the financial af fairs of the United States Sanitary Com mission is just published. The total ausoatit of money received by the Com missioners, from all sources since its or ganization, in the summer of 1861, is 62,677,964.40. The expenditures did amount. to $1,672,507.72. Balance on hand, 81,005,396.68. Eager A. Pryor arrived in New York yesterday, and was taken to Fort Lafay ette. He contradicts the report that he had said that Macon and Milledgeville had been captured, and that Augusta had probably fallen. He says Sherman is the ablest officer in our army, and that the south has more to fear from his move meats than those in progress elsewhere. As to the southern refugees in this city, he said they had acted disgracefully. The organization of an army corps to consist of not less than 20,000 infantry, under the command of Major General Hancock, excites much interest. His headquarters have been established in Washington. Veteran soldiers not now in service, and desirous of entering this new organ ization, should, until further notice, re port in person to the office of Colonel C. F. Johnston, at the Soldiers'. Rest, near the Baltimore and Washington Railroad station, in Washington. No person should apply excepting such as have seen two years' service and have been honorably discharged, and are phy sically qualified. Veteran officers who desire to serve in this Pine Corps shouid make application in writing to the Adjutant General of the Army, at Washington, giving a his tory of their service and such military recommendations from their former cont. minders as they can produce. —The Secretary of War has just deci ded that colored recruits ere entitled to the same bounty as white recruit, viz : One hundred dollars for one years ; two hundred dollars for two years, and three hundred dollars for three years.

Here in Lancaster, quite a number of our citizens both male and female have got the fever bad.

The motto seems to be " let's get rich" and oil gives us the means. Hurrah for coal oil !—Lancaster Inquirer. MR. EDITOIL—I believe in Sunday Schools. They do good. I should say they do goods. First: They cause children to be well dressed. 1 believe in dress. I do not mean in dress for show. One may dress for various purposes. I believe in dress to make you feel yourself. There is much in 'self-respect. Rags do not lift up one's soul.. 1 have an exception for rags. They axe an ornament when they cover au honest heart. For that matter though, anything would. Children are improved by dress. It makes them feel better. They must be dressed to go to S. •S. I believe many. would not be dressed so well were it not for S. S. I do not care fur the Itev. Dr. Groin or Mrs. Grundy either. I know they are sayinc , " vanity." That is because they are full of vanity themselves. Why do I do not think of vanity'! Because I have not got any. Second : Sunday Schools give pleas ure. I used to cry when I could not go. Children sing together. Every child loves singing. Perhaps• one, now and then, does not. That is a bad sign.— "Who" [even little ones,) " bath no mu sic iu his soul, &c." Such a child ought not to be allowed to mix with good chit dren. It would be like a crow among canary birds. Children like to read. In S they get books. Also, pictures. Sometimes there are papers too. And better papers than many secular ones.— No one knows the good these means do. They are just like the good the dew does. It is too soft and subtle to be seen at once. Those things help to make a child into a good man ur a good woman. It takes much to do that. But ev3ry little helps. What is little by itself becomes great when it does a great work. Little ones and S. S. are little things. Yet in the end they do a great work. They make men and women and churches. Third : Sunday Schools teach the Bible. There is everything in this. It improves the child's heart. Its bead likewise. Children obey their parents better by reason of the Bible. Children are safe from sin and shame by reason of the Bible. Parents fur their own sake should have their children taught the Bible. A good child is better than a diamond tolts thtber and mother. It is more of ak ornament than asdiarnond. It even pays better than anything There is no investment like that of mak ing your children wise and good. They will fill your heart with happlueu, They will help or keep you iu your old age.— Just this the Bible will teach them to read to do. Sunday Schools art to teach the Bible. Do you wish your children to be accordin. , to the Bible? Send them to Sunday School. It does not matter to whale Sunday School. If the Bible is taught in it, it is a good place for your child, The good is from the Bible, not from the place. rcading room in Richmond sup plied with Northam papers, chArges per day for admission. —The issues of all daily papers in Lon don added together amount to 248,000 ; those of the weeklies to 2,253,000.

In.a recent popular lecture:, delivered by one of our preachers, he stated 1.14, , four tlfsand persons livingtin ifia,, : do - nef: attend religious iiorship on, the 'Sabbath. This estimate does not ap year:to be'exagerated, and it is a lamen table fact that three-fourths of the in habitants of this co - entry, and perhaps of the civilized world; do 'not attaoh• them selves to any of our churches; and the. other, one-fourth who do, are divided in to some eighty different sects, or names. If we trace our species back some fifteen or eighteen hundred years among the Celtic nations, we find that the priests or "druids" as they. were then called, con trolled the Kings and their subjects; the people were barbarous Pagans, wor shiping Idols; all or nearly all were be lievers and would suffer their bodies to bo offered up as a sacrifice on their al tars, or die on the battle-field if directed to do so by the "druids," rather than in cur their displeasure, all of which they submitted too through fear of punish ment. When Christianity was among these nations the strongest inducement held out by the preachers, was that they would be punished if they did not repent; this had its effect among barbarians, but as mind has been developed, nature has been studied, the March of human pro gress has been making rapid strides, the world has been civilized and enlightened Christian •ehurches have been divided and sub divided, until it would take an Ovid iu blank verse to tell where infidel ity leaves off and christianity begins,— ' The reason for this apathy for the christian religion, must be apparent to every observing mind ; a large majority of our preachers teach religion at the present day in the same manner and with the same inducements as those held out to barbarians. While iu the march of civilization, we are taught to believe a truth because it is true, and to do right because it is right, we are taught by our preachers to believe, and do right for fear of punishment. Christianity is the fundamental base of all truths 'and should be taught as such. Civilization is the offspring of christianity and yet civiliza has got far in advance, not of christrani; ty itself, but of religious teachings; and in our own country if civilization:lid not extend the hand of charity, protect and restrain the churches by the strong arm of civil law, the contest which now ex ist among them, would increase to such ab extent, that in all probablity they would soon cease to exist. Among the teachers of the arts and sciences, which are nothing more nor less than truths based upon the laws of nature, no differ ence of opinion exists except among the ignorant; and fronr the fact that a dif• forenee does exist among the teachers of Christianity, which is the foundation of all truths; wo must come to the conclu sion that this difference arises from a similar cause. All am striving to have the world converted. "t kingdom of the Just then let it be; But first consider how those just agree. The good must merit God's peculiar care! Mu who, but God, can tell us they are One thinks of Calvin, Heaven's own spirit tell ; Another:daern4 him instrument of hell What shocks one part will identify the rest. Nor with ono system can they all be bleas'd, The very best will varionsly incline, And what rewards your virtue punish mine." Charity compels me to admit that a very large portion of those who profess to be christians, are honest in their be lief; yet experience and reason compels me to believe that a majority of them are ignorant of the first principles of chris tianity, superstitions and selfish ; and that if they should succeed in converting a majority of our country to their belief, they would immediately attack civilization Lion, drat by legislation and then by force of arms, for the purpose of bringing it down to their imperfect standard of mor als. Whenever a dispute arises in civil ization, it is subtnited to a court whose decision is respected, but when a despute arises among christians, each party choos es its leader, revenge takes the place of charity, and justice is dealt out like that of a hungry boast in pursuit of its prey. The leading elements of christianity are truth and justice, these elements can pro duce nothing brit harmony, and yet there is more harmony existing between those Who are not church members, and those who are, than exists between members of the different churches, or even among members of the same church. This be ing the case then there is more real christianity practiced out of the church es than in them, and our present relig ious organizations only have a tendency to retard the progress of true christiani ty and civilization. Then why not dis band these discordant associations, and organize churches from that. class, who have advanced to that point in civiliza tion, and practiced justice and charity to that extent as to enable them to govern themselves, protect and restrain all others less advanced, including the present church orkanizations I The march of civilization meows:ll, it will never recede to accomodate the churches, or any other class who have lingered behind. If there is no effort made to advance christianity to the present standard . of civilization, the divisions will continue until, to use the vulgar phrase Christianity will play out under its present keepers; and have to be reorganized by that portion of our race, who are now called unbelievers and sinners.

When evaporated - through clean linen it left no oil or offensive matter. In every respect it is a PURE spirituous liquor. The Oil which gives to this Brandy its flavor and aroma, is wholly unlike fusil or grain oil. Its o or partakes of both the fruit and oil of grapes. With acids, it produces ethers of a high fragrance. The substitu tion of this Brandy for Cognac Brandy will do away with the manufarture officti tious spirits, sold under this name both at home and abroad. Respectfully, A. A. HAYES, M.

I have known Hooflands's German Bit. 7 tersfavorubly for an umber of years. I have used them in by own family, and havo been so pleased with their effects that was induced to recommend them to many others, and know that they have operated Ina strikingly beneficial manner. I Wks great pleasure in thus publicly proclaim ing tins lite., and calling the attention to those afflicted with the diseases for which they are recommended to these Bitters knowing from experience that my recom mendation will be sustained. Ido this cheerfully as Hoolland's Bitters is intend ed to henefit the afflicted, "not a rum drink." 8374.406,07 From Rev. J. Newton Brown, D. D., Rai torof theEneyclopedia ofßeligious Knowl edge and Christian Chronicle Philadelphia. Although not disposed to favor or recom mend Patent Medicines in general, through distrust of their ingredients and effects, I yet know of no sufficient reasons why a man may not testify to the benefits he be lieves himself to have received front any simple preparation, in the hope that he may thus contribute to the benefit of oth ers. I do this more readily in regard to hoof-, land's German Bitters, prepared by Dr lJ AI Jackson, this city, because I was preju diced against them for ninny yenrs,.under the impression that they were chiefly an alcoholic mixture. I am indebted to my friend, Robert Shoemaker, Esq., for tho remo valor this preind ice by propertestsand ferptmouragement to try t hem when suffer ing from great and long eontinned debility The use of three bottles of these bitters at the present year, was followed by evident• relief and restoration to a degree of bodily and mental vigor which I had not felt tier six monthsbefore,and had almostdespai red of regaining. I therefore thank God atml my friend for directing Inc to use them. J NEwrox BROWN, PUMA. From the Rev. Jos.
