A oountry Editor was seen In Philadelphia City, With wofnl face that moved the hearts Of feeling men to pity. He looked as if in party strife, He had been badly treated He looked a* many others look , Because they’ve been defeated. The hopes of offioe all had fled* On whioh he long had doated: And he was not the man he was The day before he voted. His faoe was long; his upper lip Was trembling ev’rr minute; , He tried to keep listin'—alas! There was no stiffness in it. 1 asked him why he badly felt, And this was ms confession: , " I’m worried, sir, almost to death, With fears about secession. , “ Old Jersey is my native State! If Southern states secede,sir. , Whatwill beooma of Jersey tuen ? I fear the worst, indeed, sir.” “ Don’t cry,” said I ? *' I most,” said he, ” My tears I cannot dry. sir; The thought, that sister States may part, Should make the angels cry, sir.” Come! go,” said I, *’ to Tower Hall, And buy a suit of kersey, > 'And then I’ll show you how to savo The good, old Kate of Jersey,” He oheaply bought a suit in whioh To brave the storms of winter; And paid iot'f/i</iweB. some honest m-m Had used to pay the printer .* M Now, then,” said I. ” go home awl be A loyal man in Jersey ; And pray lor Union till your knees Stick through your pants of ker&ey. “ The lines our Constitution draws, i Wo’ll tos without digression : Then ev’ry State will have its rights, i And none will ory 1 Secession » 1 ** Our lotql freemen then will keep , The Union vows they’ve plighted; And Town a Ball oiothe them all. In happy Statoß United.” 1 Other kersey suits, and every variety of suits, strong and comfortable for winter wost. can b© purchased by editors or others, at petfeotly satisfactory prices, at TOWER HAUL.

The ninety*fifth section of thepanal oode, passed March 31st, IB6o,’enaots—First. That “po judge, alderman, or justice of the peace of this State shall take cogaizacqe of the base of any fugitive from labor from any State or Territory, under any a* of Congress, under tho penalty of being guilty of a misdemeanor in offioe, and under a fine not ex ceeding $l,OOO. Sooond. That if anyolaimant of fugitlvo shall, under any pretence, of authority, whatsoever, violently and tumultuously attempt to soke and oarry away, in a riotous, tumultuous, and unreasonable manner, so as to disturb or m • danger the publio peace, any negro, either with or without the intention of taking him before any distrio t or circuit judge, he shall be fined not over IIjOOO, and imprisoned not longer than three months.” Seotion 96 makes void all sales within this Stato, of hny fugitive from servioo then in this State; and if oily’perscn, undor color of any suoh sale, shall seize, arrest,'or remove, or oause to 'bo re moved from this Stato, pny syph fdgUive r< he shall bo fined $5OO. * Upon those provisions it may be observed— 1. That, if the laws of the United States (which are the law of the AaiuU do themselves de prive the officers of jurisdiction in saqhoosej, then’there was no occasion for the State topass any' such law; it was but an uncalled-for fling at the South,’ and showed a desire, without the'power, to obstruot them in the legal pursuit ef their rights. If, on the other hand, the. Stato officers should or might take cognizance of such cases,'then this act manifestly prohibits the performance of that duty, and is a declaration by this State that,‘so far as sho has tho power, she will not suffor the owner of any fugitive from sorvice to recover him within her borders. 2. The provisions against the attempt to seize a fugitive aro oithor useless, or they aro so drawn as in effeot to prohibit the arrest and rendition of suoh fagitivo. If the complainant himself, in the pursuit of his slave, broke the peace; the common law of this State hod already provided us an ample rornedy. If he violated tho law in any way, there Was no want of a remedy. Why, then, should a man who in the pursuit of his legal rights, yot oho3o to break, -the peace, bo treated otherwise than any other peaoe-breaker? Why pass anew and more severe punishment for a Southern man than for a Northern man? , Why in effect any difference between the citizen of a Southern Stato and one of opr own citizens? It is obvious that undor tho flimsy pretext of endangering the pub* Ho poaoe, there would bo no safety for anyone attempting to oapture his fugitive from service. How could he endanger the peace? only by cap turing bis servant, and that ho has the undoubted Tight to do; but if others oboose to resist his exer* oise of that right, and thus they endahgor the peace, then he must either submit to them and abandon his right, or else, by attempting to en force it, subject himself to a conviction and fine » surely this is plain violation of our duty under the laws of the United -States, not to speak of the oomity between the several States, and which Pennsylvania should he tho last to disregard. 3. The prohibition of sale Booms also unnecessary, and it is not olear that it is lawful. Suoh a fugi tive is undoubtedly property ' T and as such, his owner’s right to him is guarantied by the supremo law of the land. Why then, while suoh property exists In.this State, may not the owner dispose of suoh property ? What practical injury has or can happen to us by permitting suoh a sole—one which will seldom if ever bo made, or if made,, cannot possibly injure either the fugitive himself or any other person ? I respectfully suggest that aIL suoh provisions be forthwith repealed. They cannot do us any good, and they seem as if made to embar rass the owner of a fagitivo in his efforts to recover his servant, although by law we are obliged to de- Hvor such servant to him. ( J. Disaster on the Western Waters. DfiOFJinfG OP CArTAltt LAMB - TOTAL LoflB OF THE ' STEAMBOAT FACIFIO ASD HER OARQO. ! tFfom the Louisville Journal of Tuesday.] ' « W© gave yesterday a portion of the sad details' of the destruction of the steamer Pacific- by fire \ at Uniontown, and the rumor of Captain William Lamb's death. Tho surviving officers and crew of the ill-fated steamer arrived at this port at an early hour yesterday, and we are placed in pos session of the particulars cf the disaster. The Pacific reached Usientown. the scene, of the conflagration, about half past six o’clock' Son-, day evening, ana was receiving eoal when the fire* was discovered amidships, among A ‘ quabtlty of hay, which had been placed near the boilers. In an inoredibly short time the boat was enveloped in flames, and the confusion which ensued among the passengers may be imagined, but cannot be de scribed. The orew made herculean efforts to stay the work ot destruction, but even the attempt of Mr. NeWball, one of the engineers, to attach the hose to the pumps waa snsuccesaful, and the work of deßtruotlon was •sfesden and fearful. When Captain Lamb discovered that all efforts to save tho boat would prove unavailing, he ad dressed himself with ail tho energy of his nature to aid in the eaoape of the passengers, and.hls ef forts were gallantly seconded’ by Messrs. Frank Smith and Robert Barclay, tho dorks and other, members of the crow. The accounts as’to tho numbor of lives lost are conflicting. One inform ant expresses the fenr that at least twenty persons wore either burned or drowned, while others think that estimate too largo. We annex a list of those known to have boon lost: Captain Wm. Lamb, the commander, of Louis riile. Jacob Hocb, a boat hand, of Portland. Emily, slave of Mr. Hurry, the barkeeper. Tazewell, negro oabln boy, of Lebanon, Ky. Two children, deok passengers, unknown, of Portland. Mr. Marmillon, a Frenchman. Mr. J. W. McDonald, of Indiana. Servant girl of A. Campbell, Jr., of Virginia. In addition to tho nbove, throe females wero seen to jump overboard, but one of whom gained tho shoro. Two or throe others, whose names are not remembered, hut who belonged to the boat’s arow, aro missing, together with two or throe deok "passengers. The neroic conduot of Mrs. J. W. McDonald, who was travelling With her husband, who was ly ing very low at tho time with consumption, was a subject of general admiration. _ The announcement of tho conflagration was too much for his delicate nerves, and the poor man swooned and died amid tho oxotiemont. Tho wife refused to leave the corpse of her husband to the merciless, fiery ole-i ment, but stood bravoly by his death-bed until tho’ flames lickod tho panols of the state-roem in which tho oorpse lay. In vain Bho offered almost fabu lous sums of reward to imy one who would convoy tho body to tho shore; and in sheer desporationi sho caught up tho lifeless form and bore it to the: guards of the boat. .It fell from her grasp, how ever, and was destroyed, it is presumed, with,the boat. Mrs. McDonald remained in Uniontown! after the disaster, in the hope of gathering up the ashes of her deceased husband. The forward' part of tho boat was first enveloped in flames, and. as Capt. Lamb at this juncture was 1 observed on the hurrioone roof forward/it is sup- 1 posed that he passed through the ptiet-houße to the stein of the boat, and slid down tho derriok which, supports the yawl. Bat the yawl was gone, a party of deckers having out it looso, and made their way in it to the shore. As Capt. Lamb was utterly un able to swim, hiß position now was perilous. Goff, a negro porter, saw him in that position, and threw him an oar, which the captain failed to catch. The negro immediately afterward lost sight of the oaptain, since which tune he has been given up as lost. The first effort of Mr. Smith, the chief clerk, was to seize upon the books, money, and papers of the boat and passengers entrusted to his oare. He unlooked the safe and got possession of fifteen hundred dollars belonging to Captain Bragdon,ona of the owners of the boat, but his searon was ar rested by the progress of tho flames. All the books, papers, together with the cabin register, the money in the dock, amounting to about five hun dred dollars, and evon Mr. fcmith’a woaring appa rel, were destroyed. The surviving officers and orew lost everything, with the exception, perhaps, of the first engineer and Mr. Underwood, one of tho pilots. It is said that in less than fifteen minutes after the fire was first discovered, the boat was burned to the water’s edge, the wreck floating down and lodging on the island, a short distanoe below the coal landing. A description whioh is given of the destruction of stook by the flames, is painful in tho extremo, The stook burned inoluded seven hundred and fifty sheep, and one hundred and thirty head of fat cat tle, mules, and horses. In addition to tho live stook, thore were ovor three hundred tons of pork, bacon, and flour on board, and the loss, as we stated yesterday, will sum up fully $lOO,OOO, whioh loss is in a great weasuro covered by insurance in solvent offices. The steamer F H. Fairchild, Capt. Fawoett, bound up, oamo alongside tho burning boat, and remained there, her officers doing everything in their power to relieve the sufferers. Capt. Faw cett brought the officers and orew of the boat to this oity free of oharge. Every reasonable effort Trill be made to rooovor tho body of Captain Lamb. Tho Captains’ and Pilots’ Associations of this city, of whioh organiza tions the deceased was a member, both held meet ings this morning, and each appropriated $lOO to defray the expense of the soareh. A committee was appointed by tho Captains’ Association, con sisting of Captains bherley, Bragdon, and Hamil ton, to conduot tho search, and a similar committee was appointed by the Pilots’ Association. Capt. Shorley left for Uniontown yestorday to inaugu rate the search for tho body, and a metallic coffin was sent forward by Capt. T. M. Erwin to reoeive the remains. It is creditable to tho owners of the boat that they proposed to offer $5OO for the recovery of the body, but tho associations to whioh Captain Lamb belonged insisted upon defraying the expense. The Atlantic , whioh arrived last evening brought no farther Interesting tidings from the wreok. We are informed that Alex.. Campbell, Jr., of Virginia, and his party, including his wife four ohildren. and sister, were passengers by the steamer, having escaped from the burning wreok of the Faajic without injury. Mr. Campbell is the son of Elder Alexander Campbell, of Bethany, Va. The-Ufeof a valuable negro girl, belonging to Mr. was lost by, the disaster. TWO CENTS. RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE, Anniversary of the Noon»Day l*rayer Meeting. The third anniversary of the Noon-day Business Mon*s Union Prayer hfeeting Was duly observed at “J Sansom-atroet' Baptist Ohuroh, Sansom street, below Ninth, yesterday, atl2o > clook. The chair on this oooasion was, by appointment, oeonpied by the Rev. Albert Barnes, D. D., who at the appointed* hour engaged in prayer, and gave out the hymtf commencing, “ Come, we who love the Lord, And let our joys be known.” After singing, by request of the chairman the Rev. John Chambers le£ the congregation in prayer, following whioh a portion of Scripture was read by Dr. Barnes, and commented upon in connection with the history of this meeting. It was three years to-day, he said, sinoe the beginning of these meetings The growth of them bad been as re marfeable as-their continuance ever since had been marvellous, kept up, as they had been, during.all this interval, and at all seasons. There, were some present, ho believed, who had, scarcely missed a mooting sinoe their commencement, and, although be himself had boei* prevented from attending - thorn yet it was to him a source of great gratification to* think that thete meetings had been bo faithfully keps up by .“others, as a place where Christians could mdet in unitm upon the funda montal principles upon which they are agreed, and,' for-the time being, forget the things in whidb-ihey . honestiy diffir'.’’ s . ■ j . congregation again ahited; in sitiging. a hymn, after which the meeting.waaljncown- open for prayer and ,exhortatipn, ( the tbreo-minnte ruie being strictly observed. In tiro course of remarks subsequently made, by minister’s principally, it was said by one that in tho year m 5/ Ih' tfae city of New York, amove- I ment had been started amCng Christians of every ] name, for the purpose of holding a' Union Preyer meeting on the first Tuesday in January, to be oon. tinued at intervals of three months; a historical fact not generally known. George H. Stuart,-Erq , paid a handsome tri bute to Mr. John Bliss, the young man who was ■ the original mover in these meetings- in Philadel phia, at the Methodist Episcopal Church, in Fourth street, below Aroh, on the 23d of November, 1857. Mr. Stuart also read a letter,from Mr. Bliss, in which the as an appropriate watchword for the the following text: “Jesus Christ—the same yesterday, to.*day, and forever.” ‘ ; j . > One gentleman presented the request for prayer of a young man -now in' Moyamerising Prison un der sentenoe of deaths , Mr. Dale, a member of one of our loading mercantile houses, arose to wardd the olose of the meeting,' and suggested that there was apparently little propriety in denomina ting these meetings business men's meetings, ; and ho urged,'as a business man; upon, business men, that they should more frequently avail themselves of the spiritual benefits of attending and partici pating In these noen-day assemblages for prayer. At the suggestion of a brother, the time was ex tended fifteen minutes beyond the usual hour. There was a large attendance, and the proceedings throughout were marked with the best possible spirit, and gave unmistakable tokens of the con tinuance of those meetings in the future. ’ Completion and Opining of a-nbw Pntf thstant Episcopal Church.— Early In 1856, a number of persons oonneoted with the Protestant Episcopal Churoh, in the northern part oi the city, commenced the ereotlon of the church edifice now known as the Zion Protestant Episcopal Church, looated at thecornerof Eighth street and Columbia avenue. The financial orisis of ’57 interfering, the completion of the building was temporarily ar rested, although religious services have been held in the basement of the church sinoe the fall of ’56, since whioh time its pulpit has been regularly oc cupied by the Rev. Jacob M. Douglass, as rector; The ohuroh Is now completed, and will be formally opened to morrow (Sunday) morning, not dedi cated t as that ceremony, with tho Episcopalians, is very properly never performed until the building dodioated is free from debt. It ’ls a heat Gothic edifice, capable of seating about rix hundred per sons, being embellished with a-good organ, and st&ined-gWs windows. 'The musfo In’ this ohuroh, moreover; is proverbially good, and the congrega tion is in a very fiouribhingbonditloh. The opening to-morrow ‘will embrace-'the following service*: Sermon in the morning, by Et.-Revi Bishop Pot ter; preaohtng in the afternoon, by Ret. Dr. Howe, rector of St. Lfike’s Churoh, in this city, and In the evening, by Rev. Dr. Stevens, of St. Andrew’s Church. There will also be sorvicesin this church •very evening during tho coming week, until Thursday, when there will he services morning and evening. Interesting Religious Historical Rems- niscences. Agreeably to announcement, the Bev. J. F. Berg, D. B.> pastor of the Second Reformed Dutch Church of this city, occupied the pulpit of the First church of that denomination, Seventh and Spring Garden streets, on last Sunday morning and even ing. In the sermons preached, both of whioh were founded upon the text from the eighth chapter of Romans, u What shall we say; then to these things?” the learned Doctor took occasion to ex pound the doctrines of the Bible as held And main tained by the Reformed Dutch Church. There was a large audience in attendance, both in the morn ing and evening. After the sermon in the evening there was a popular desire expreseed by those pre sent , that both- the discourses, which, to a great extent, were extemporaneously delivered, should bo published in pamphlet form, a request with .which their author, wo understand, has sinoe com plied. As all may not be familiar with the his torical incident contained in the olosing part of the sormon in the evoning, we subjoin it as a matter of interest to tho general reader. In conolusion, Dr. Berg said: My brethren, these arc the dootxines of the Re formed Dutoh Church, and , however briefly and imperfectly stated, it is an honor to be allowed to vindicate them. I avow it; why should I not ? I believe these great truths to be the very sheet an chor of Christian hope.' Theyhave sustained the martyrs of Jesus in the ordeal of the fire, the stake, and the soaffold.' Everybraneh of the Chnroh of Christ, holding these truths, since the Reforma tion, has been baptised into this faith by the blood of its confessors ; and in the dark hour of hitter shame, when they have gone faltering, with their Saviour to Golgotha, they have been oheered with this dcotriae of the grace of God, and have been wafted home to their Saviour in the chariot of Arc. I avow it, I am not ashamed of the Reformed Dutch Church) or of her history,' and I say ft here in tho presence of you all, that the man who can wag his head and ataunoh oonßomtism, knows little of tnearebtof gratitude which this country owes to tMsJpheDutoh Church. She may be small and despifegflat brethren, she was the foster mother of tho gen who built upon that Ply mouth rook tho altar,sacred to civil liberty and -the rights of conscience. That good ship, the Mayflower , of whioh your poets have sung, and your orators have so eloquently declaimed, sailed from the port of Delft, in Holland; freighted with the Pilgrims and their wives and little ones, who, for years had been cherished in the homes and hearts of the members of the Dutoh Church, and when that ship swung from her moorings and un furled her sails, they were filled by‘the prayers of theso humble Christians, who crowded upon the wharves to bid the voyagers God speed and fare well. They were Independents who oame to this country, and as Independents our ohuroh che rished them and gave them a home. Yes, I love tho Dutch Chnroh, for she has always had a kind heart and a largp one. She has it still. If any of her ohildren prefer another worship and another creed, and other government, (said with reference to the contemplated secession from R of the ohnroh in whioh he was then speaking,) if they wish to set out on on untried sea of exploration, she will stand upon the shore, and bid them farewell; but she will not saorifioe her laws, she will not discard her dcotrines, she will maintain the right, and oommit her cause to her covenant God and Saviour. Be loved hearers, may God. give you grace so to .trust in Jesus, that liviDg and dying, you may triumph In his love ! And to Him be oil the, glory of our salvation, in all time and forever. Amen !
