The Baltimore 44 Lutheran Observer 9 9
for the Union and the Government;
It affords us much and sincere laeasure to
find that the Lutheran Observer, the leading
religions paper of that large and influential
denomination in this country, has nobly and
fearlessly enrolled itself on the side of the
Union, the Constitution, and the Govern
ment. The Observer is published at Balti
more, Md., and had, for many years, as' its
editor the Rev. BENJAMIN KURTZ D. D• —one
of the ablest divines and most powerful
preachers and writers in this comifxy; After
a short withdrawal from the editorial arena,
the venerable Doctor has recently returned to
it, and we discover in the Observe?' of last
week several articles to which his initials are
appended, and which bear all the marka of his
strong -intellect, his clear judgment; and his
warm and devoted patriotism. We are happy
that in Baltimore, where fealty to the GOVeru-
ment and the Union is so much needed, this
venerated nrisron of the religious-press has
thrown the great weight of his gigantinantel
beet and wide-spread influence on the Ade of
the country, and against the-banditti arl4. Per
nicions monster, -Secession. The Obieetier
has a very extensive circulation, not'or s ilyin
Pennsylvania and Maryland, hut in many of
the Southern States; and as its statements enta,
nate from an aged Christian patriot, AV f
resides in a slave State, and has never plat
been suspected of affinity with Abolitiori l ledi
we trust they will be well pondered, and
=er
i;ix
else the influence they so richly merit." Au
,
that the Southern muses need, to dispel, the
dark delusions that have momentarily ecliPsed
their minds, and to induee them to tear away
•
from ambitions and designing leadeim, la to;
learn THE Tap= and hence we are glad that
so able and influential a journal as the Lull s&
ran Observer, and so distinguished an. editor
and divine as Dr. Pooreemrs Rroarz, have oonlo
boldly forward to carry that truth, in solemn
and cogent sentences, to their homes'. and
households. From the article in the Obstroer
we quote a few passages :
" In (lien matters the Lutheran Obscaver,ie not,
sod has never been, a pareisan pstper. It hail moat
earefully esehewod politics; it never descended to
the bickerings and squabbles about pert me:Mares,
and took no part for or against Prosideot
When the choice of the people decided in favor
of Messrs. Lincoln and Hamlin, it cheerfully
yielded to the voice of the majority ; and so toe
think all good citizena thank! act. Though Mr.
Liaceln was not our choice, we believe hini:terbe
an upright man, who loves his country, and will
do the best he can for its welfare We .owe _sow.
glance to our Federal Government, and shalLyisid
it whether our opinion of him be welltedirrided
or not. We believe that the South might hive'
prevented his election if they had Chosen; We
know further that if he were a corrupt man,
and desired to injure tke country, be bad it not in
his power prior to Secession ; for the MrjsrilY in
the Senate, in the norm of RepresentatiVes'
in the Supreme Court were opposed to him, so that,'
if he had felt disposed, he was powerless for harm
to the South as well as the North. Under these
oireitmstances, we are satisfied that there was no,
jest canoe for revolt; and, moreover, that all the,
evils complained of could have been more readily, i
and effectually remedied in thin out oPtba,
Union. We therefore disapprove of secession, in
theory and practite, and condemn it as the most ,
awful remedy—nay, as no remedy at uif, but rather
an aggravation of the grievances under which' our ,
Southern brethren think they are saffedng,
'‘ Let it, however, not be supposed that we sae an
Abolitionist; we are not, have never home ; and
never obeli be. Abolition would, in our opinion,
be as dangerous a remedy as secesidon

too mush of the grinding usurpations of despots,

American citizen. and if there be a temporal
blessing on this side of heaven for which we can
hazard our property, our boner, and our life, it is
for the unbroken Union of one Stites, and the
endless perpetuity of our Government, the best the
sun ever shone upon. God knows we wish no
harm to our Southern brethren ; but we pray
most earnestly that they may discover their mis
take—that all their just grievanero may be re
dressed—that intestine and fratricidal war and
impending devastation may yet, in the good
providence of God, be ,averted, and that _ a fair e

restored. 1

''Francis Scott Key was born in Maryland in

(Dorsey proceeds thus:

But Dr. Beane' friends were, not idle. The

application was made to the President of the

sonable demand was granted forthwith, and he
was conducted to the narroW. comfortless place
where Dr. Beans was imprisoned. Tbo mooting
was full of emotion on both sides, as may be
imagined. -
It was now sunset, and the friends stood together
looking out of a narrow porthole towards the
shore. The aspect of everything was peaceful
The last golden beams of day lingered over shore
and wave, like a parting benediction, while from
the ramparts of Fort bicllenry proudly waved the
American flag, whieb"the pod of nationahad pro

It was a terrible night to the -two American

explosion of the deadly bombs, the lurid glare

shouts or defiance that rung oat during the a 4 .

intervals between the discharges, the sharp
trumpet-tones of commina that pealed above the
din, fell on their strained eats. At length the
firing became more infrequent, es the gray dawn
approached. Van we not imagine weather the
gaze of Key and his friend was turned ? to what
object they strained their sight through the morn
ing mist? But everything on eliore was bidden
by the smoke and fog, which bring low and heavily
over the river. They feared the worst—there was
no sign to tell them that the American batteries
had not been silenced by Citokburn's gun, and
Baltimore laid in ashes. Whilst agitated by these I
fears, the wind suddenly moved through the met;
in a few moments it wan lifted away, and they saw 1
the stars and stripes waving untorn and unscathed
- from its staff, flouting defiance at the foe from
every star on its aware field The revulsion of
feeling produced by the welome eight was too
much—they burst into tears and embraced Gaon
other without speaking a word. Soon recovering,
however, Dr. Beans, with his usual impetuosity,
sent an exultant hurea out of the port, to greet it,
while Me. Key, with a heart full and gieWing, pen
oiled on the back of an old letter ono or two
stanzas, and the - manna' sketch of our splendid
national anthem, which, since our m
ediump fl has
become consecrated to us by the very that
the disloyal sons of patriot fathers have sought to
oast on it, is now as geared to our hearts as the
songs of Zion that echoed beside the waters of
Babylon:

RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE
A Remarkable Latter-may. reannenye
The Ti81012:or prophecy, of Joseph Hoag, which
we publish'below, is so remarkable In the aeon
ratty of some of its details, that were its authenti
city not. attested by the most respectable and re
liable living witnesses, we Should hardly credit it,
The predicted " civil war," now on the thresh
old of fulfilment, Is not more singular than are
several other features in the vision which have
already been verified. As much as six months
ago, A Quaker gentleman In this city, well , ao
quainted with the history of this " vision," also
with some of the children of its venerated author,
expressed to us a desire to see it published in -The'
Frees. We have been at some pains to ascertain
certain -.particulars respecting this remarkable
man; some' of which we here give as Introductory
to hie prophecy.
Joseph HON; was en eminent minister of the.Goe
pel in this 'Society of Friends. At the date of his
subjoined vision, In 1803, this Society was a unit, the
division in it not having occurred until 1827. After
the eeparition, Hoeg affiliated with the Orthodox
branch, hi which conneetionlie continued until his
deathin 1846, at the , age of eighty-five. Me an.
*eaters were among the early settlers of New Eng
land, and lived for several • generations in the
State of New Hampshire, although he was been in
Duchess county, New York, but early in life re
moved
to the home of his ancestors. In his 'ser
vices as a Minister he travelled extensively through
out the Ujaited States, and is well remembered by
a large nattier of the elder members of the Society
of Ft-Jenne in. Brie city as a very gifted and , epii
Titerarminded minister; Those who knew him-beet.
Lay that lie' was a man of-great piety and very our
root life ,and conversation from his youth'; also,
that his spiritual. perceptions were - very deep and
dear, so nittoleso that he was often favored with a
sense of the eenditioreof ether people witbent out
ward knowledge, and in many instances, known to
persons stilt living, foretold circumstanees which
occurred : long afterws.rde, and of which he could
have had no knowledge wben he predicted them.
A journal of hie life exists, in which the author
says, Hoeg " was a man of good underetanding, re•
tentive memory, and a mind seasoned with grace.
His conversation was truly instructive. Be ap
peared most conspicuous in the gift of the ministry,
and the spirit of prophecy." The following is
JOSEPH HOAG eis VISION,
transcribed . , by his daughter—who is still living—
in the year 1805, since which time many doll
sate MS. copies have been made and preserved
by niembers of the Bodety as a curious, interest- '
frig, and, as the sequel has shown, an amazingly
premonitory document
"In the year 1803, In the eighth or ninth
month, I was one day alone in the field, and ob.
served that the sun shone clear, but a mist I
eclipsed its. brightness. i
As I reflected upon the singularity of the
event, ray mind was struck into a stlenoe the most 1
solemn I ever remember to have witnessed, for all
my felicities were low and unusually brought into
deep silence. I said to myself, what can all this
mean? Ido not recollect ever before to have been
sensible of such feelings.
"'And I heaid a voice from Heaven saying:
This which thou most is a sign of the present
coming times I took the forefathers of this coun
try from a land of oppression; I planted them here
among the people of the forest; I sustained them,
and while they were humble I blessed them and
fed- them, and they became a numerous people.
But they have now become proud end• have for
gotten me, who nourished them and protected them
in the wilderness. and are running into every
abomination and evil practice of which the old
countries are guilty, and have token quietude from
the land, and suffered a dividing spirit to come
among them—lift up thine eyes and behold.'
And I saw them dividing la great.heat The di
vision began in the churches on points of doctrine
It commenced in the Presbyterian -Society, 'and
went through the various religious denominations,
and in its progreee and close its effects were -the
same. Those who dissented went off with high
heads and taunting language, and those who kept
to their original sentiments appeared exercised
and - sorrowful And when the dividing Spirit en
tared the Society of Friends, it raged in as high
degree as in any I had noticed or before discover
ed, and eke before, theme who separated went off
with Nifty looks anetannting, censuring language.
Those who kept their ancient principles retired by
themselves. It next appeared in .the Lodges of
the Free Masons ; it broke out in appearance like
a volcano, inasmuch as it set the country in an-up
roar for a time.
"Then it entered politics throughout the United
States, and did not stop until it produced a civil
war. -An abundance of blood was shed in the
enures -of the combat; the Southern States lost
their power, and slavery was annihilated from
their borders. Then a monarchical power spran,,o ,
up, took the Gove rn ment of the States, established
a national religion,' and made all societies tribu
tary 3o eipeart its expenses. I saw them take

will 'chastise myChereheuntil they return to the
faithfulnisi of their forefathers ; thou meat what is
coming upon. thy native country for their iniqui
ties and the blood of Africa, the remembrance of
which has come up before me.'
"This vision is yet for many days. - I had no
idea of writing it for many years, until it became
such 'a Medan that, for my awn relief I have welt

.
To-morrow will be the day of Pentecost . ," or
Whirsantids. The word -is from the , larceit
Pentekoste, and signifies fiftieth, and is the name
given in the Christian Scriptures to the Jewish
Feast of Weeks, or of Ingattiering, which was
calebrated on the fiftieth day from the festival of
unleavened bread, or the Paesover, corresponding
to our Easter. Under the Jewish economy this
feast was one of their three great yearly festivals,
and was eignalised by offering the "first frnite "
ot the year in the Temple at Jerusalem, as it was
also in a measure commemorative of the promul
gation of the law from Mount Sinai. The Pente
cost now observed by the elintehet—first esta
blished as a Christian festival in the fourth eon
_
hiry—commemorates the descent of the Holy
Ghost, ten days after the Ascension of our
Lord, and the converts of that day, (three
thousand, as we read in Arts,) as the "first
fruits " of the Spirit, correspond to the " first
fruits " of the secured harvest under the Mosaic
dienansittion. The manlier analogy and 0011tIttlit
existing between the Pentecost of Christians, and
that of the Jews which it supersedes, are to those
who appreciate the sacred. Scriptures deeply
interesting and instructive. Christ amended into
heaven on Thursday, and on the Sunday-week
" the Lord's Day," tie ten days being
completed, the Spirit came down to earth to build
up, end dwell in his church until the times he M
elted, when the Son of Man shall again be mani
fested from heaven, to meet his bride in the air, as
we read in the 4th chapter of First Thesea/oniane.
These days of the week have also been found, npan
critical examination, to correspond to theie on
which Christ died end rose, his death having oo
curred on the fifth, and his resurrection on the first
day of the week. The day which will be celebrated
to-morrow is called Whit Sunday and Whit-sun
tide, from the fact that on it white vestments are
need in many of the churches, by the neophites
baptised on the premium day, 7011 , 4 being a con
traction of white. Tide is an old name for day,
or season.,
The observance of this Moat Is mainly ootdined
to the Catholic), rroteitaut Episcopal, Moravian,
and mine of the Lutheran churches, in many of
which the ceremonies for the day are peculiar and
impressive. In the Catholic church, the vestments
used on this day, by pontiffs, priests, and ministers,
are of red color, with the twofold Idea of symbol
izing the " tongues like as of fire," and teaching
that by receiving the Holy Ghost, and his sancti
fying gifte, the recipients aro to be ready to main
tain that faith to the death, the red color being
for this game reason chosen by the Catholic ohuroh
in all her festivals of martyrs.
REV, CHARLES WOODRUFF. SEUELDS.
This eminent minister of the Gospel, and pastier
of the Second (0. B.) Presayterian Church in this
city, Seventh street, below Aroh, has been honored
with a eell to the peafessorithip of Biblical and Fen
cleabietical History in Prineeton College_ Thle
institution, founded at Elizebethtown in 1746, and
removed to Princeton in 1737, deservedly ranks
among the drat literary inelitutions of this country,
and the chair to which the Rev. Mr. Shields of
this city hes just been called is, we believe, re
garded as the highest position in the Presbyterian
Church in America, having been successively filled
with ability and distinction by the late Dr. Archi
bald Alexander, and his third son, Dr Joseph
Addison Alexander, two of the most eminent di
vines and Biblical scholars in modern times. To
Mr. Shields, we may also state in this connection,
was assigned the honor of delivering the annual
oration, a few weeks ago, at Princeton Theological
Seminary, pronounced by those who beard it *0
have been a highly-polished and masterly produc
tion.
A limited number of copies of this oration, in
EL Dbileasphin Ultima,"
has slue been issued in beautiful style by Messrs.
T. B. Lippincott ,t Co , for private °initiation.
Whether Mr. hatable will &wept this call—a very
flattering one 10 eo young a uttult—haa not yet been
determined, his present position being such se to
render a removal from It alike painful to himself
and congregation. The latter are petitioning and
using much' effort to induce a deollaatioa. Shoaid
he, however, upon mature retention, ooneeive it to
be his duty to accept, there will be but one opinion
among hie people as to the fretful character of his
ministry over them, both in things spiritual and
temporal. Their church edifice is in a more im
proved condition than it has been for a quarter of
a century, and the oongregation is entirely free
from debt.

yesterday, of which the following is a copy ;
WAR DEPARTMENT.
WARRINGTON, May It 1801. j
Gov. A G. Comm—Dear Sir: Enclosed here
with yen will find the plan kr the organisation at
the volunteers for three years' service. Ten regi
ments are assigned to Pennsylvania, making, in
addition to the thirteen regiments of three months'
militia, already called for, twenty-three regiments.
It is Important to redoes rather than enlarge this
number, and in no event to exceed it. Let me
earnestly recommend to you, therefore, to call for
no more than twenty-three regiments, of which
only ten are to serve during the war, and if more
are already tailed for, to rednee the number
by discharge In making up the quota of three
years' men, you will please sot in concert with
Lieutenant Colonel Andrew Porter, who will re
present this Department, and so far as possible
.
make it up by baklag la ptefetaaaa Teammate el.
ready offeeed for three months, having, of course,
due regard to a fair distribution of .the forces
among the different motions of the Stabs. If. it
should be agreeable to your Excellency, it would
be osposiallissotlfying to thisDapktibinlil to have
some of those regiments , offered for three years'
service froin Allegheny and' other western coun
ties, including the "wild oat district," brought
into me gerviee under the emote for your State.
\cry reepestintly,' SIZION CAngssoSi, ,
Secretary of War.
It is proper Mat I should remark in tine con
mention, that I have no control over the regiments
mustered into service by the property authorized
officers of the Federal Government i nor navel any
power to change the terms of their service, 'nor to
disband them,
or in any other manner to affect
..
their movements.
I received the letter of the Seeretary of War
yesterday evening, and have not had time to reply
to it So far as it is in my power, I will conform
to all the directions contained therein, and will,
during the continuance of the troubles now im
, pendlog ever oar country, give to the Federal
