ITEMS. —Rev. Mr. Barnes, who had
been delayed for some weeks by the j
death of one of his children at Wheel

the Methodist church on Sunday last.
He made a favorable impression.
It was discovered some days ago that
the new lock at MeVeytown, in course
of construction, was 18 inches tooshurt.
Providence put some water in the
ditch on Sunday, but when the compa
ny will do so, no one as yet appears
to know. The framing of three
spans for the new bridge across the
river is ready. The old one was strip
ped of its roofing and weather-board
ing some weeks ago. There is no
coal for sale in town now. Harsh
barger s ineyard lias been made a
flag station for the accommodation
train going east, and for the emigrant

Mr. Editor-. —Havmj; nnd"rstooH from -some friend"
[ that an article appeared in your paper a short time
since, respecting my recent "with'trawal from the M.
K. church ; and learning also that some misapprehen
j sion exists in some quarters as to the mode of my
retiring from connexion with said church; without
intending anv reply to the article itself, tas my m(e
has thus far Keen not to notice newspaper commnni
cations respecting myself, whether true or false, and
from which rule I shall not now depart;) I have yet to
request, what all honorable Editors are ever ready to
grant in all cases of this kind, that you will do me the
moral justice to insert in votir columns, the following
letter, whieh it is hoped, will be sufficient it) itself,
without any detail of remark, to satisfy all well dis
posed minus, that I retire, with honor to myself, as
well as the continued esteem of beloved brethren of
former relationships, from the communion of the
Methodist Episcopal church. As I purposely avoid
all controversy with the writer in question, it is cer
tainly in keeping with all the rules, that t should ask
at your hands, what I trust will not be denied, the
publication of the present writing, without reply from
any source, and especially from a writer who has
chosen to attack me "xtat nomims umbra." Before
submitting the letter however, I will say to all con
cerned. Mr. Editor, with your permission, that as a
minister of the church, I am not conscious, in my
public ministrations, of having at anv time, wilfully
violated any doctrine as held by the feast Baltimore
Conference." up to its recent session at Altoona. while
as a citizen of the State, I have never favored the doc
trine of secession, but at all periods of my life, have
always been, as I still continue to be a true friend of
the Constitution, the Union and the Laws; and that
my true and only creed on the subject of the relation of
master anil servant, is that which the Holy Ghost has
recorded in Ist Tim. 6th chap. I—s verses"; and which
every christian minister, by Divine authority is bound
to preach, according to the command—- These things
tearh ami exhort." With these remarks, Mr. Editor.
I now present the letter forthe true understanding of
the form in which I have recently seen proper to ter
minate all further connexion 'with the Methodist
Episcopal church.
••This certifies that the Rev. Samuel Kepler, having
for reasons satisfactory to himself, withdrawn from
the Methodist Episcopal church, at the session of the
East Baltimore Conference, held at Altoona. March.
1664. is hereby affectionately commended as a min
ister of the Gospel to all christian people.

As a number of false statements appear to be in cir
culation in Union township relative to the appoint
ment of Collector, the following facts will enable any
one to eomprehend the matter at a glance: At the. reg
ular meeting of the commissioners on the xth of
February. .Joel Zook. farmer, was appointed collector,
and the same week notice given hi both papers that
the duplicates would be ready on the ]9th,.ni that a.
failure to attend mould render the appointment void. As I
had understood that some gentlemen were desirous
of giving it indirectly to Mr.'Bulick(who having been
Assessor, could not under the practice of the com
missioners be appointed.) 1 retained the duplicate of
Union township for more than three weeks after the
19th. when, no one hav-Tig either called, written or
spoken of the matter. I met Mr. John Peaehey. stated
the ease to him. and suggested that himself and oth
ers should select some one who could offer sul>-
stantial bail, to take it- or, as even then the thirty days
notice required by law could no longer be given to
persons removing from the district on the first of
April, that he should take it himself. 1 filled up a
bond with the name in blank, and gave it to Mr. Peaeh
ey. who subsequently returned it properlv signed—
all which was done with the sanction of the commis
sioners. After the bond had been returned. Mr. Bu
liek called and made inquiries respecting the matter,
and f then told him it was too late, and that I was
sorry neither In -self nor anv of his friends had -em
me word after the failure of Mr. Zook to attend.—

suggested his appointment or spoken anything rela
tive to it, until I did >o mvsejf.
GEORGE FRYSINGER.
Clerk to Commissioners.
Lewistown. April 6, 1564.
Letter from a Soldier.
The writer of the following letter is
from Clearfield county, is in the 110 th
regiment, and has always acted with
the "democratic" party. His opinions
on the war had been asked by a rela
tivc in this county, which dieted a
sensible and well-worded reply. It is
dated Camp near Culpcper. Jan. 22.
1864.
\V hen the Rebellion broke out the pen
pie of the north Vere ill prepared to crash
it, in a fortnight, on account of the ad
vantage taken of them by the southern
representatives during the iast twenty or
thirty years, in consequence of which we
were defeated apparently during the year
1862. On account of the failures of the
campaigns of 1862, the northern people
became discouraged, and on account of the
traitorous conduct of a few, many njen
formed the opinion that the administration
was entirely wrong; that the leaders of it
were ignorant and blind in regard to the
best interest of the nation.
The dismissal of P. J Porter and the
relieving of McClclLn added, no doubt,
thousands to the same class ; the failure of
Burnside at "Fredericksburg" was suffi
ciont proof to them that the administration
was conducted by a set of scoundrels whose
intent was to destroy the country! The
"emancipation proclamation" furnished
them with the most conclusive evidence
that the sole ohjeet of the President and
his Cabinet, was the destruction of our
union and the overthrow of the llepu lie:
but when tin sprng campaign of 1863
opened, with a new set of officers, and a
powerful and well disciplined army, they
were soared, being forced to the beliel that
the authorities were about to strike, in the
right place, a blow which would cause the
Confederacy to tremble, and foreign nations
to doubt of the final triumph of their
traitorous scheme. But, again, my opin
ion is this : that if every northern man
had been loyal to his government, or had
he even kept quiet, the rebels would have
uiet with discouragement both at home and
abroad, and to day tranquillity would pre
dominate in every section of our country.
When this rebellion commenced, it was the
opinion of the leading rebels that assistance
would be received from the north, and,
indeed, they have not been wholly disap
pointed. Sometimes I believe that the
loyal men, at home, have not contributed
as largely to the support of the government
as they might have done. Had they sup
ported the civil officers, in the execution of
their duties : had they made known to right
ful authority, every disloyal man; had they
made use of every means in their power to
induce discontented men to remain quiet,
uiuch good might have been done, and the
thin ranks of oar army filled without any
difficulty.
Too much reliance has been placed on
the arm** by the people at home: they have
not supposed that they cuuid render any
assistance outside of taxpaying. This is a
mistaken idea; men at home have fighting
to do, as well as the soldiers in the field,
but of a different nature. Instead of fight
ing with firearms, as the soldiers do, they
should make use ot their tongues in con
vincing all that the course taken is right.
I do not wish to censure any loyal man,
but some times f think that much good
might have been done by the loyai people
in this way.
Now, I will say a word on the folly of
many disloyal men. I believe there are
men in the northern States who do not
wish to take up arms against rebels, for the
simple reason that there is danger in so
doing, and in order that they might not be
expected to join the army have uttered
sentiments of disloyalty. This is the hight
ot folly. On account of the utterance of
disloyalty in the north, the rebels have
been encouraged to strive to their utmost
ability to maintain the confederacy until
certain periods when they expected a revolt
in the north, through which ihey would
be enabled to establish their confederation,
and be rec gnized as a separate countrv
and independent government.
Thank God, they have not enjoyed such
success, and I pray this day that their
efforts may be foiled and their evil deeds
be heaped upon their own heads.
Why can any northern man entertain the
belief that the Rebels will succeed ? What
have they accomplished since they began ?
True, they have invaded Maryland and
Pennsylvania, but what has been theirgain?
They took away with them a lew horses, a
little money and some grain, but the loss
sustained by them in battle will more t> an
balance this. On the other hand, why
can any loyal man be discouraged or find
fault with the success of the Union army ?
Can he not see anything that has been ac
complished by the steady and strong arm
of our army ? Let us see if any encour
agement can he found by summing up
what has been done by the Union forces
since the war began. The rebel banner
has been carried as far north as Lexington.
Mo , at which time they claimed that Stale,
all of Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana Kentucky,
Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama. Georgia.
Florida, North Carolina, in part,a!!nf South
Carolina, and the greater part of Virgin
ia. They pretended, that the confedera
cy was composed of thirteen States. They
have been drivenoutof Missouri and Arkan
sas, Mississippi and Kentucky, chased out <>l
Louisiana, Tennessee, and large part of
Virginia, and North Carolina, also Flori
da and Texas, and have been invaded in
Georgia, Alabama arid our troops, are wint
ering in South Carolina. By the opening
of the Mississippi river they have been cut
in two almost equal parts ; the part west
of the river being the largest, and now
our troops are wintering in all ;h-ir States
except Georgia and Alabama. Is rhis not
a wonderful work to he performed in one
season ? I feel greatly encouraged with
the success of our arms during the year
1863. After Charleston, Savanah and Mo
bile arc taken the bogus Confed. must sue
cumb.
The " Emancipation Proclamation" is
right—the laws of war sanction it. I
have not space to discuss its merits. 1
will just say the course taken by the exec
utive suits me exactly so far.
