A temporary frame building. 40 feet •70 feet, capable of accommo dating 400 venous, law been erected by the rtuml- Scent liberality of John Rice, Esq. Plana for the new and permanent structure are now before the vestry and undergoing revision and adinatment. Ills on a scale to.accommo date one thousand people. If the, necentary,fands should bepruvided this failand winter, it. la the design of the vestry to begin the, new bulirring early in the coming spring. The design is to bare a plain, but sightly edifice, not to cost over e 20,000 or e 35,000. The additional Sunday school building will probably cost $15,000 more, making the whole coat of the church and its ad juncts $50,000. The lied is a very promising one, and as, in the very lame district south of Lombard street and west of Broad street, there is not a single place of woman', for Episcopalians, it cannot - be doubted that the new church must, within a year or two, embrace a large congregation. Until further notice, the regular public services will be on Sundays, morning at 1036 and evening at 736' o'clock. A Nnw PAsron.—Rev. J. S. Gut!ernes, pastor of the First German Baptist Church of Rt. Louis, has accepted the call of the First German Baptist Church of this city (made vacant by the death'ef their long retained pastor, Rev. K. A. Fleisch mann), and entered upon his labors with the above church on theist inst. Rev. Mr. Gutleman is a graduate of Rochester and that institution has no better representative among her sons His first settlement was at Lotdsville, but hesoon went to St. Louis, where he has had a long and successful pastorate. He is considered one of the best among the German preachers, and is a man of ardent, devoted piety, a good scholar and an earnest pastor. When he speaks in English his earnestness. purity of diction and meaning make him truly eloquent By the acceptance of the call Mr. Gutleman has awakened great gladness In the hearts of the members and encouraged high hopes for his new field. SUNDAY SCHOOL ENTERTAMIMPT.—The select entertainment advertised in our special notice column to take place at the MiLestown Baptist Church, on Thursday evening, September 24, 1868, under the direction of 3. H. Houghton, M. D., will be an exhibition of much merit. The illuminated paintings and descriptive lectures form a. criticism on the style, life and writing of the late Artemus Ward. On Saturday evening , next, the Arch Street Theatre will inaugurate the season with a grand comedy night, when Goldsmith's famous old play She Stoops to Conguer, will be presented by the full company, cast with great care. As an after piece the little farce Jenny Lind will be given, with Miss Fanny Davenport (daughter of L. Davenport) In thcwitading character. Miss Davenport has a Alicions voice, and her powers as an actress are said to be considerable. Mr. Craig will also appear in the character of "Granby Gag," and he will sing "Captain Jenks." On Monday, the 14th instant, the Etchings opera troupe will begin a brief engagement with the opera Martha. The Arch Street Theatre has been handsomely refitted during the vacation. The entire audito rium has been laid with new carpeting and mat ting; the vestibule has been tiled with a new de sign; the wood-work of the seats and of the gal lery and box frosts has been repainted, and where it was necessary, the'lilding has been re newed. The boxes are nicely fitted up with new carpets, and rich crimson damask curtains, and the walls have been frescoed with panels of a neutral tint. The. whole appearance of the in terior is fresh and bright and clean looking, and very tasteful. • The orchestra this season will be larger than ever before, the number of pieces having been increased to eighteen. - • Mr Doctworth will continue to direct <the music. • - "Mr. Hawthorne and his assistant are busy, painting large quantities of new scenery, some of it of the.handsomest" description. The green room the dressing-rooms; and all the 'different departments. of the theatre have been fitted up in a style which reflects the great est credit upon Mrs. Drew, and Mr.-Manager Merphy. Is its - present condition, the Arch. is unquestionably one of the most beautiful theatres An the , country, and this, combined with the fact that the company is of the highest order, will make it very popular - with the better class of play-goers during the coming season.

Brown, which we Printed yesterday, he referred to a letter in the Cincinnati' West and South, a Democratic sheet, which labored for Pendleton and is dissatisfied with Seymour. This letter is Said to be written by Mr. Henry Reed, lately ore of 'the chief writers of the Cincinnati Enquirer. Mr. /teed Writes:— "The question, so far as Mr. Seimoir stands affected, is 'this; . Was he dishonest, or merely weak ? Was his condeq, theresult of treachery or imbecility? That 'Mr.: Seymour was either weak' or dishonest;'that his;coudget owed ,its origin either totreachery or imbecility, is a thing eo palpable as to forbid denial, His act was that of • a knave ern fool, and that knave or, fed:— whichever it`may have beett—of 'an common magnitude..._lt __it not complimentary to Mr. Seymour," * h en his apologists can only Main tain his Integrity at the' expense of his under standing, and his understanding at the expense of his integrity. It is pot fortunate fora party to be committed to a candidate* respect to .Whoxe character there'is a question which can' WO be answered by an impmehment of either hid intel 1 lectnal or his moral fitness for the place to Which it Becks his elevatket. Ido not wonder .that so little is said in the Seymorm,papers—they do not deserve to be called dernocratic--of • the mode hi the nomination •of Mr. Seymour, was effected; perhaps I should not wonder that so little has been said upon the subject by the papers upon the other side. ~;The conductors of the former see plainly'enough that it is not a matter to improve in appearance the better It - is understood; that those of the latter are too well pleased with Mr. Seymour as an an tagoniat to care how his nomination was aecom pitehed. They are not, well over their fright at the prospect of Mr. Chase ' and the party revolu tion which his presence in the field would have inaugurated, to see clearly the use which might be made of the fact that Mr. Chase was.the can didate of the Democratic masses, and that those masses were depriVed of their candidate by an act of 'treachery, of which Mr. Seymour was either the inventor or the willing inatrnment. The conduct Mr. Seymour before and at the Convention is conclusive upon ' the point of f his fitness the office of President of the 4,. . - United States. This Is no time for either weak lings or tricksters at the head of the govern ment, and that Mr. Seymour Is either pitifully weak or flagrantly dishonest, Is a proposition which cannot safely be disputed. Bow the con ductors of journals in his interest feel is shown as well by what they leave unsaid as by what they say., They do not care to touch 'upon the circumstances which stureand'ed the nomination —that amazing and almost IncompnAterusible coup de thimble-rig, through whose means the bread which the peoplehr-Winited was snatched from them at the instant when they thought they had it in , their grasp, and the stone which they did not want thrust cold and benumbht into their embrace. sermon MID Tux maxFortat. "The speech of Mr. BroWn representi Mr. Sey mour as in all of his public manifestations ad vocating the nomination of Mr. Chaseven ,to the extent of.pledging hiS personal hottot 'not, under any circumstances, Ao' be a candidate againat UM. - Yet the temdletortletter--the letter` of June 25:—Ites that within the. knowledge of the writer, .

VALLANDIGELAD AND THE NEW TOBIE RIOTS. • The Recent Affidavit. The Wsifthington correspondent of the Cincin nati Gazette writes : "Was Vallandigham in New York at the riots in 1863 ? An affidavit stating that he went from Richmond by way of Nassau and Halifftv to Bos ton and New York, with a company of Confede rates, for the purpose of being present at that democratic festival, has been widely circulated by the Repnblican press: "The history of that affidavit is important, be cause it gives added weight to it as a campaign document. "The very first fact which appears concerning It is that it was made nearly a year ago, and so was taken without any reference whatever to Mr. Vallandigham's political prominence in the New York Convention, or his later nomination for Congress over the head of one good soldier, and as the competitor of another. "In the spring of 1867 certain agents of our government who were engaged in investigating , the operations of the Confederate biockade;run ners and of the English pirates became acquainted with the outlines of Vallandigham's trip to Halifax. A little later they met Captain Johns, an,l subsequently some of the members of his crew, and gradually obtained the main facts as set forth in the affidavit lately published. To get them in writing and in the shape of legal testimony was, however, a matter involving very considerable difficulty. In the summer of the same year, one of the departments hero sent an officer to Europe to pro tect the interests of our government in the matter of ten thousand dollars' worth of United States postage stamps taken from the pirate Florida. That officer, on his return,bronght the first information which reached the public con cerning this matter. Meantime, the officers first mentioned, engaged both for the State and Trea sury Departments, continued their efforts to ob tain the real facts connected with the return of Vallandightun. Finally, through their efforts, the information was secured, and also the affida vit of Captain Johns, who commanded the vessel which took Vallandigham to Europe. This was made in November, 1867, long before the nomi nees of either party wore determined upon, and solely to complete some of the records which' the government was making np concerning one por tion of the Alabama claims. 'Both the State and Treasury Departments had this information in their possession during last winter. In April last the officers who had conducted these investi gations came to this country,and to Washington, bringing the principal papers in the case with them. The facts regarding Vallandigham became a matter of quiet .conyersation in official circles, and finally upon the • adjournment of the New York Convention, , the copy given' to the press was obtained from the original London affidavit. "From first to last the investigation and all the papers have been in the hands of persons in the service of the Government, and all the informa tion elicited was gained in the discharge of offi cial-duty.. The original affidavit -is still in the hands Of these same parties. '`After obtaining this sworn staternent from Captain. Johns, our officers <found the mate and r s i e a v lpi n f s tth h e e t hey fully yo co h r i o v erate d ar h e ina ae m enet of their captain, and all of the officers concur in the belief that the story as given by him is true `in every essential particular. EL V. B." POlllard cin-aell. Banda. - Mr. E. A. Pollard, in his new Political Pamph let attacks General Grant languidly, as a matter Of business, and, as a pendant, attacks Jefferson OUR WHOLE 'COUNTRY Davis bitterly, with all the relish of persons!ha tred. Mr. Davis is to Mr. Pollard "the lulu of his country and the scandal of his age," "a char acter eseentially selfish and mean," "a 'shallow adVenturer and :fortune. hunter," "a .narow brained charlatan," "a caitiff;" "a bankrupt," "a loafer," doing an " unclean thing," • choosing "gilded Shame," taking. "a degraded way to for tune." • All because Mr. Davis is said to have turned commission merchant in Liverpool. The Composition rises in vigor until lta rheto rical climax iereached in theme words: • - "Shame upon the'man, a blistering mark upon the caitiff, curses up on' the *retch who lids done this_paltry and fie titious thing !" t "Flagitillotur I la!

It*ls conceived and written out in the State of NeW York, It was approvel by Horatio Seymour, who profeased a desire to have Mr. Chase nominated on' this platform, • and pledged his earnest effort to secure that end. 1. The American Demotiracy, reposing their trust under God in the intelligence, the patriot ism and discriminating justice of the American people, declare their fixed adhesion to • the great, principles of equal rights and exact justice for all' men and all States, and their purpose to apply them, within constitutional limita, to all ques tions which, in the varying exigencies of public affairs. may demand consideration and:solution. "2. We congratulate each other, and-the whole people, upon the auspicious return of peace after protractea civil war; and, offering our most earnest thanks to the brave soldiers of the Union whose heroic courage, patient endurance and self•sacrifleing patriotism have preserved for us an undivided country, we discard from our hearts every sentiment savegood will toward those who having bete brava enemies in:war, now return to their duties as citizens of the United States. We welcome them to a noble rivalry in earnest efforts to surpass each other in mutual kindness and common devotion to that Union whose symbol once more floats in glory and honor over all our land. • "8. Thatfilavery, having perished by the war, and being now prohibited by an amendment of the national Constitution, rielther can nor ought to be restored; while a Wll3O regard to the altered circumstances of the country and impartial jus tice to the millions who have been enfranchised, demand the adoption of all proper consti tutional measures for, the protection.

That in ii land of Democratic institutions, all public and private interests . repose most St , caret? on the broadest basis of su.Wrage; but un der the system of distinct,- though4raited States, WhiCh distinguishes our American government From the consolidated governments of the Old World, both wisdom and duty require that the application of this principle be left in the sever nil States, under the Constitution of the United States, to the people of each .State, without in terference by the National goverement.• "5. That public security is endangered, and the public prosperity arrested by the unwise and unjust disfranchisement imposed on the people of the Southern Stateaby recent legislatlon; , the best guarantees" of perfect peace, increasing wealth, and beeficent goverrunent in these States will be found in complete and universal amnesty, and the speediest possible removal of all civil and political disabilities.. "6. That we have observed, with alarm, the growing tendency of the centralization and con solidation of all the powers of the National Go vernment in the Legislative Department, and are constrained to oppose to it a determined resist ance. It is of the first importance that every de partment of the Government, whether Legisla tive, Judicial, or Executive, be maintained Wits full constitutional authority, without, encroach ment by either upon the others. Unconstitu tional and - usurped control of the other depart ments by the Legislative must result not only in the destruction of the checks and balances of the Constitution. but ultimately. in the subjugation of the Senate, the subversion of the States, and the overthrow of the Union. "7. That we earnestly condemn the establish ment and continuance of military government in the States, and especially the trial of citizens by military (commissions, as unnecessary, unwise and inconsistent :with the fundamental princi ples of civil liberty. Neither military govern ments nor military commissions for the trial of citizens .in-the time of peace, can be tolerated by a free people, resolved to maintain free instate. Lions. "8. That the maintenance of great armies and nay it s in times of peace, Imposes heavy burdens on industry, and is dangerous to liberty. We in therefore, on the reduction of our army and navy to the smallest number consistent with due efficiency; and upon the withdrawal from the Southern States of all military force not alzsi o lnti ly necessary for the support of civil au thority. • "9. That no fears need be entertained of evil consequences from the extension of the area of the United States. While, therefore, we have neither the purpose nor the wish to impose our institutions by tbrce upon any people, we shall welcome the accession to the American Union of neighboring States, whenever they are willing to come in, and can bereeeived without breach of in ternaticTiiiil obligations. "10. That the full weight of American asser tion and influence should be given to the doctrine that the citizens and subjects of all civilized states have the right to choose in what country and under whlit government they will live ; and we especially insist that all American citizens, wht Cher native or naturalized, shall be promplly and efficiently protected by the National Govern ment in every part of the world against the op pression and injustice of all governments what ever. "11. That in our judgment, the conduct of our Indian affairs has been marked by great corrup tion, and needs tobe thoroughly reformed. To protect the remnants of the powerful tribes which once possessed this broad land, in their de cay and weakness, is the plain duty of "the, pow erful nation which has succeeded them.. "12. That labor is the true source of ail wealth, and the men of labor are not only the real au thors of the material well-being, but the best de fenders of the honor and interests of the conntry. It is therefore not'less the dictate of wise policy than of sound principles that the rights of labor be fully maintained,and'every possible • opportu nity of individual improvement ,secuied by just laws to the workingmen of the.coualry.' "13. That honor and duty, alike require , the honeftpayment of the public debt and the faith ful performance of all public obligations, bat we do not admit that creditors, more than any ether men, are entitled to special favor, in the ;inter pretation of the Jaws by which their rights' and public duties are determined.

That we invite and welcome the eo-opera4 tion of all patriotic citizens who are wilting to Unite with us in our determination LO maintain `the Union of the States, the rlghts'of the States,' and therights of the citizens;' to arrest the pro •grese tif consolidation and the arbitrary exercise of military power; and to bring back to' the Gov-; ernMent economical, vigorous and beneficial an.: Ministration; and to the States and the people peack, progress and prosperity." • The,Yenrs and General Grant: Therfollowlng is the concluding,porrion of a cipeeelidelivered lately by 'Noah Green, a leading, Israelite of Keokuk; IoWa: Now on what 'side dO We Stand?

The Denver (Colorado) News of August 29th bas the followingaccount of a brush with a party of Indians: Mr. D. B. Bailey, County Commissioner, and one of 'the oldest settlers of Larimer county, started in from Cache a la Poudre yesterday at night-fall for ammunition, arriving early this morning. He confirms previous reports of In dian depredations in the vicinity of his home. On the 24th a small party of the savages stampeded the herd of Mr. Brush on one aide of the, river, and his herd on the other, driving off all their horses, numbering twenty-four, and kill ing four head of cattle. Some of them then dashed upon William Brush and two of his men, who were hitching up a team near the house, preparatory to starting for a load of hay, and killed all three of them, shooting each three times, tomahawking and scalping them. In addition to these depredations and murders, they stole four horses from Messrs. Clones and Innes, and ten from Captain Cram. About dusk, of the twenty-seventh, a party of I P' settlers numbering about six -four, having been organized with Mr. Bailey leader, started in pursuit of the Indians, cord g up with them at sunrise of the twenty-tightlt, within ten miles of Latham. This party nutabered forty. were all mounted and armed, and though at first taken by surprise their Chief soon set them with his rod to performing their ono peculiar military evolu tion, accompanying an attack, being the terming of a moving circle of fire around the party attacked. Mr. Bailey sprang to the ground, drew a bead on the man with the rod, and dropped him dead. From that moment they fell into confusion, and seemed anxious' to escape. Retreating, they would fire back over their shoul ders, not attempting to make a stand. Five of them were killed, fifteen wounded, and the horses of the killed captured. None of the whites was hit orhurt, and the pursuit was called off at noon to reorganize and procure more ammuni- This is thelafrest and test blow these Indians have ever received since the settlement of Colo rado: And althoti.gh it is hard for the farmers to have. to leave their gratn and hayshoeked and wasting in the field to protect themselves from hadians, our people will rejoice at their signal euteeze.
