BESISTANCR TO THE EId I VERNMENT IN 1798 .
To the. Etlitorof the Evening Bulletin: '
In your paper of Saturday last, there is men
tion made of a letter written by the Rev. Dr.
Helmuth in 1775, and introduced into a Sermon
of the Rev. Dr. Schrtiudrer. Dr. Helinuth
was no politician, but was Pastor of the Lu-
titeran congregations worshiping in the churches
of St. Michael and Zion, and was for many
years the professor oc the Greek, Latin and.
German languages in the University of Penn
sylvania and was considered the best Hebrew
scholar in the country.
In 1799 the-United States direct tax was to
be levied; this. tax had been fiercely inveighed
against as an evidence of the monarchical and
desrotic tendencies of the-men then in power.
' 'The opposition became so strong, that Wash-
Angton from his retirement wrote to Patrick
Henry entreating him to offer as a candidate,
if not. for Congress, at. least for the Virginia
AszolkiF----.7n his letter he said,. cc It would.pe
a waste of time to attempt to bring to the view
of a person of your observation and discern
ment the endeavors of a certain party among
us to disquiet the public mind with unfognded
alarms, to arraign every act of the Administra
, tton, to set the people at variance• with their
government, and to embarrass all its measures.
Equally useless would it be to predict what
must be the inevitable consequences of such a
policy if it cannot be arrested." Further
on he continues, It has been said, that the
great mass of, the citizens of this: State
(Virginia) are well atfected,notwithstanding, to
the general government 'and the Union; I am
willing to believe it; but how is this to be re
conciled with their choice of representatives
both toeCo and their ,State Legislature,
who ar opposed to the general government,
and who by, the tendency,of -their measures
would destroy the Union ?" Again and further
on, "But at such a crisis as this, when every
thing dear and valuable to us is assailed, when
this party hangs upon the wheels of Govern
ment as a deadweight, opposing every measure
that is calculated for defence and self-preserva
tion &e.; when all the acts of their own govern
ment are tortured, by constructions they will
not bear, into attempts to infringe and trample
on the onstitution with a view to introduce
monarchy &c. ; when measures are system
atically and pertinaciously pursued, which
must eventually diseolve the; Union or produce
coercion, I say when these things have become
so obvious, ought characters who are best able
to rescue their country from' the pending evil to
remain at home? Rather, ought they not to
come forward, and by their talents and influ
ence stand in the breach which srich — conduct
has made on the peace and happiness of this
country, and oppose-the widening of it ?"
These assaults from political opponents,
to which Washington referred, soon produced
their "inevitable consequences." In Penn
sylvania part of the inhabitants arose in arms,
and compelled the agents of the United States
Government to desist from the performance of
their duty. The President immediately issued
a proclamation demanding submission to the
laws. At this time, when the whole country
was in a most excitedi political condition, equal
to that which existed four years since, the
Rev. Dr. Helmuth wrote to the people of
Northampton county, his friends and. brethren
in faith, a letter which was afterwards published
by Wm. Cobbett in the Evening Gazette, of
April 12, 1799. It would be well if this kind
adminotions of this letter -would be followed
by the opponents of the Administration of the
present day. H.
THE - NEW MONITOR SAUGUS
The monitor ccSaugus," of the river and
harbor class, built, at Wilmington,Delaware, by
Xessrs. Harlan & Hollingsworth & Co., for the
- United States Navy, rttade a trial trip to Phila
delphia on Wednesday, April 6th. The follow
ing are some of her principal dimensions :
Length on deck :NI fait
Beam— 4:P4
Depth 1;3 , 1
Her aide armor is composed of • five thick
nesses of one-inch plate iron, with backing
stringers of six and one-halt inches by six
inches, and six and one-half inches by four
and one-half inches, which extend all round the
vesseL The deck is composed of oak plank
seven inches thick, and is plated with two
thicknesses of three-fourth inch plate iron. The
turret is twenty-one feet, internal diameter ten
and a-half inches thick and nine feet high,
with base ring at deck, fifteen deep, and five
thick, to - e:czre it from injury by shot, that
would prevent it from revolving. The pilot
house is feet internal diameter, six and
three-quarter fee: nigh, and ten rand a half
inches thick, located immediately over the
• centre of turret.
I The motive engines are forty-eight inches
diameter of cylinders, and twenty-four inches
stroke, and drive the screw exclusively, and
are known as J. Ericssen's half-beam patent
double engines. The two vacuum engines for
surface condenser are of Worthington's duplex
kind, with steam cylinders twenty inches diam
eter, air pump of twenty-two inches diameter,
and circulating pumps of .fifteen inches diame
ter, all having a stroke of fifteen inches. These
engines create a vacuum for all- the engines in
the vessel, and also condense all the steam that
can be produced in -the boilers, at any time
without operating any of the machinery in the
vessel.
The blowing engines are 15 inches diameter
of cylinder and 12-inch stroke, operating two
very large Demfell's fans, which supply air for
the ward-room, berth-deck and fire-room. The
engines for revolving the turret are 12 inches
diameter of cylinders and 16-inch stroke, at:.
tached at right angles, without fly-wheels, one
operating the other's valves, these engines are
under the control of the Principal gunner in the
turret.
The vessel is also supplied with No. 5 auxil
iary and duplex feed and bilge pumps, all of
which are independent and can be used at all
times to feed boilers or to pump ship. In ad
dition to the above there is one of Andrew's
centrifugal bilge pumps, to be used in case of
great leaks or accidents to the vessel from tor
pedoes or obstructions.
The berth deck is situated between the
tmret chamber and coal bunker bulk-heads,
and have standee berths for 72'men.
The ward-room and Captain's cabin is for
ward of.the turret chamber, and is fitted up in
a very superior manner with walnut furniture
and upholstering of the first-class, and com
bines comfort with elegance. -

THE GREAT
CENTRAL FAIR,
FOR THE
lianitary Commission.
Philadelphia; 1307 Chestnut Street.
February 20,1864.
The undersigned, members of the Executive
Committee of the GREAT CENTRAL FAIR for
the Sanitary Commission, beg to invite the co-one
ration of all their fellow-citizens, especially of
those resident in. Pennsylvania, Delaware and
New Jersey, in this important enterprise. It is
proposed to hold the Fair -in Philadelphia, in the
FIRST WEEK IN JUNE NEXT, and it is con
fidently expected that the contributions. coming
from a popnla ion so benevolent and patriotic as
that which inhabits the Central States, and repre
senting the most important and varied branches of
industry and art, will secure a result in aid of the
funds of the Commission, and for the benefit of
the Soldier, at least equal to that which has at
tended similar undertakings in other cities. It
is not necessary to say a word to ,stimulate sym
pathy for the soldier. We feel for them all !as
brethren, and the popular heart seeks only the
best mode of manifesting that sympathy in the
most efficient and practical way. These fairs in
other places have been productive of great results.
By this means Chicago has recently raised for this
object 2.60,000, Boston $150,000, and Cincinnati
more than S'-:10,000. We appeal, then, with the
greatest confidence to the inhabitants of the Cen
tral States, especially - to those who constitute the
great industrial classes, to send as contribution
the prodUctions of their skill and workmanship.
We appeal to them in the interest of no party,
radical or conservative, Republican or Democratic,.
Administration or anti-Administration. We know
only this, that to send our national soldiers in the
field supplies to supplement those Goverment un
dertakes to give them, but which they sometimes
fail to receive, and thus to relieve them when sick
and in misery, is a work of Christian charity, and
that it is a work of intelligent patriotism also, as
economizing their life, health and efficiency, on
which, under God, the nation depends in this its
time of trouble.
We therefore ask every clergyman to announce
this humane undertaking to his people, and to ad
vise them to do what they can to further it. We
ask the press to give it the widest publicity and the
most earnest encouragement. We call on every
workshop, factory and mill for a specimen of the
best thing it can turn out; on every artist, great
and small, for one of his creations ; on all loyal
women, for the exercise of their taste and indus
try; on farmers, for the products of their fields
and dairies. The miner, the naturalist, the man
of science, I,l3(M'veler, can each send something
that can at the very least be converted intoa
blanket that will warm, and may save from death,
some one soldier whom government supplies hare
failed to reach. -Every one who can produce any
thing that has money value is invited to give a
sample of his best work as an offering to the cause
of nauonal unity. Every workingman, mechanic
or farmer, who can make a pair of shoes or raise a
barrel of apples, is called on to contribute some
thing that can be turned la!) money, and again
from money into the meats of economizing the
health and the life of our national soldiers.
Committees have been appointed in each depart
ment of industry and art, whose business it will
be to solicit contributions for the Fair, each in its
own special branch. 'I hese Committees will plaqi
themselves in communisation With those persons
who may wish to aid us. In the meantime it is
recommended that local committees or associations
should be formed in every portion of Pennsylva
nia, Delaware and New Jersey, with a view 01
organizing the industry of their respective neigh
borhoods, so as to secure contributions for the
Fair,
Committees of Ladies have also been organized
to co operate with those of the gentlemen in soli
citing eontributions.
A list of all these Committees will be shortly
published and distributed. Lathe meantime those
who are disposed to aid us, or who may desire any
farther information on the subject, are requested
to address CHARLES J. STILLE, Corresponding

OFFICE OF THE
GREAT CENTRAL FAIR
FOR THE
SANITARY COMMISSION,
PHILADELPHIA, 13Y7 CHESTNUT STREET,
Mesca, 1E64
The Committee on Finance and Donations of the
Great Central Fair, appeal for contributions in
money, to those of their fellow-citizens who do not
propose sending to the Fair the products of their
skill and industry. By far the larger portion of
the money received on the occasion of the Fairs
held for the benefit of the Sanitary Commission in
Cincinnati, Boston, and Brooklyn, was derived
from- direct donations in corh, and not from the
proceeds of the sale of articles exposed. What
the. Sanitary Commission needs to afford
relief to the sick and wounded soldiers
is money, in large amounts and from
all sources. We call, then, 'upon all bant
ers, corporations, capitalists, persons living upon
incomes, professional or otherwise; in short,
upon all who will not be represented in he Fair by
their productions, to imitate the example of those
who will, and to contribute liberally in 310NRY
for this great object. In New York. although
their Fair is not to be held for two weeks, contri
butions of more than $200,000 in cash have been
already received, a single department of trade,
that of dry goods, having made up more than half
that sum.-Brooklyn and Cincinnati have each
contributed as much in money, and certainly the
wealth, liberality and patriotism of Philadelphia
can hardly be considered as less conspicuous than
that of these communities. Contributions will be
thankfully received by any of the members of
the Committee.
