The clergy Exhorted- to "Strike" for

-Come one who has either in serioutnes attempted an
,act of kindness to the clergy of our day which
Ought to make them pray to be delivered from their
„friend, or else he has perpetrated a very stupid joke.
The article is headed " aeriCar Strike," and its ant
km is to convince the public that the clergy are the
most 111-paid and unappreciated individuals in the
community ; that it would not be "very much out
lot the way" for them to emulate the example of
discontented bakers, blackemithe, or weavers, in
;plug on a big "strike," and that, constructively - ,
atleast,the ministers are culpable for allowing their
humility to keep them from making some such die.
gusting demonstration. That we may not do li:don
't:ice to the writer, we will let him speak for himself
as to the responsible parties at whose door this
Cruel oppression of the clergy lies.
"Two classes of the people," he writes, "are t o
Salerno for the niggardly dealing from which the
ministry suffer—the people, for their stinginess ; the
ministers, for meekly bearing it without a word
o f rem onieranee, lest they ahoula be found guilty of
want of humility, in telling the truth about the
Oppressive practices on them."
Some of our readers may have received the im
pression that thealergy, as a general rule, are pretty
well thought 01 by their congregations, and that
their wants, if not,supplied with quite as much mu
raceme as those of an army contractor or a mer

liberally as were those of a certain tent-maker who

After indulging in sundry unkind remarkir about
surprite parties being inflicted on pastors and their
families," the "newspaper parade " that is made of
any increase in a clergyman's salary, are., he gives,
among other reasons why a minister ought to have
plenty of money, the following

would almost decline to receive Me Gospel from

= WARD Bxacaan.-On a recent Sunday evening
she renowned preacher of Plymouth Church, Brook

congregation with a characteristic dissertation on
the text from Pant, " I am a man which am a citi
gen of no mean city," in which marked prominence
le given. to the idea that for a man to be born in a
place about which he cannot feel any pride is among
as greatest mundane misfortunes; that, in fact, " a
NMI so born is impoverished as long as he liven."
In the course of the sermon Dlr. Beecher illustrator
the importance of a mans being acquainted with
kin own constitution by an allusion to himself,
which will be read with interest by those who.have
been amazed at the aggregate amount of mental
Labor which this man performs in a year without
apparent fatigue or detriment to his health. The
discourse referred to appears in this week's fade

BORACE IaRICELEY ON RENAN'S "LIFE OP lE.
VUF."—Thexe have been few works oubliahed of late
about which there has been a greater diversity of
apleion among both professing and non.professing
Christians than the recent publication, in English,
of itt. Rewires Life of Jests. The book partakes of
there three peculiarities in a degree which to us en
tirely explains its unique character: First, it was
written by one of the closest anal; teal observers of
modern times ; second, although written from a
purely human standpoint, it is so unprejudiced in
its statements that the higher faith of the reader
cannot fall to inspire charity even for the errors of
ithe writer ; and thirdly, it is a book written without
appannt dzsign either to make men believe that
Jesus was all that He claimed to be, or to shake the
faith of those WhO have learned that " the things of
The spirit can only be spiritually discerned." In a
New York cotemporary, Hon. Horace Greeley, over
ins own signature, thus refers to the bookln ques
tion
,‘ I do not partake of the spirit wherein most criti
cisms on Renan'a 'Life of Jesus' seem to have
been conceived. I think that work calculated to

before. If there ever was a case of ' definition by
exclusion,' I think it is demonstrated that jesus
could never have been the person whom Renan in
general declares and proves him; unless he had

And I think there are many Chrfetiane who will

DESTRUCTIVE FINN IN CAMDEN, W.
DESTRUCTION OP THE CAMDEN AND AMBOT RAlL
noem Damur.—Yeaterday morning, about 6 &cloak,
a serious fire broke out in the "lamp room" of the
ddpot belonging to the Camden and Amboy Railroad
Company, at Camden, N. J. The flames soon spread
over the entire building, involving a loss estimated
variously from twenty thousand to fifty thousand
dollars. In the room where the fire occurred there
was stored a quantity of sperm oil, used by the
company for lighting and lubricating purposes. The
origin was accidental, having been the result of
carelessness on the part of the keeper of the oil
min, in not properly attending to the lamps. At
the time of the occurrence there was a force of forty
or fifty workmen engaged in or about the deplik and
a locomotive stood fired up awaiting the arrival of
the United States Rights steamer, with the mien.
gess for the six- o'clock train. The engine Was at
twitted to an entire train of oars, and the latter Were
drawn, almost entirely urtininred, out of the histi t i n
structure. The T u tu succeeded' ii ßuing l iom :
other 7 i ;eroeuger care end home freight ears out of the
itepet, but the rapid spread of the flames soon com
pelled them to desist from their efforts to save the
portable property, and all that was left in the .10,36 t
was consumed.
In ten minutes from the time of the breakinr, but
of the fire the entire building and its contents were
in names. In the freight ddpet were five ears, load
ed with bailed hay, and intended for Government
ore.
The Camden firemen were utterly unable to cope
with the names and a large number of Philadelphia
fire companieeireased the river with their steamers.
They drew their supply of water from the river,
and they rendered good service in extinguishing the
flames that burned among the wreak for several
hours.
The steamboats, locomotives, and passenger care,
Were all saved, except one "hospital car" and two
emigrant cars. These were filled with live Moak,
Which were entirely burned. A steam fire ensiino
was likewise destroyed. It belonged to the Hope
.Engine Steam Fire Company. It was taken
across the river on Thursday for the purpose of
being sent to its builders in New York for the par.
yose of having soma repairs or alterations made to
it. It was in the freight WA and its destruction
was complete.
Every effort was made to stay the progress of the
names, and, fortunately, no other property was
burned, notwithstanding that there was a heavy
breeze blowing towards the adjoining buildings.
Mr. Gatzmer, president of the road, was upon the
'pot almost at the breaking out of the fire, and, in
conjunction with the employees of the company,
rendered valuable assistance.
The destruction of the depot caused some delay
and confusion in the running of the early trains yew. terday morning, the six-o'clock train for New York
not getting off until half past seven, and the way
train from B: ordentown being detaiatd, consequent,
ly, for an hour and twenty minutes beyond its time.
But these delays were only temporary, and Dlr.
Gatzmer assures us that there will be no interrup
tion in the passenger or freight business of the com
pany, arrangements having already been perfected
to have the lines run regularly, as before the canna
gration.

THE SUSQUEHANNA BRIDGE.—TIie rail-
road bridge, across the Susquehanna, in course of
construction at Havre-deGrace, will be over a half
a mile in length. The work progresses rapidly to.
wards completion. The "through route" from New
York to Washington will not be so perfect as the
wants of the travelling coin munity demand until this
•greatbridge is finished. The piers for the bridge
are sunk into the river at the distance of two hun
dred and fifty feet from centres—the draw covering
two spans of sixty feet each, in the midst of which it
will revolve upon a central pier.
The einking of these piers is one of the greatest
triumphs of modern englneezing. From Watson's
Island, just above the town of Havre de Grace, a
long bar extends for a considerable distance, on one
side of which the river runs over a bed of granite,
and on the other revels in mud at the depth of from
forty to seventy feet—the mud itself reaching down
about sixty feet farther, where the piles encounter a
hard gravel—tlie original bed of the river. Upon the
rocky side of the bar the erection of the piers is
easily accomplished, but, upon the muddy side, the
work has encountered obstables which many have
deemed insurmountable. Ey a skilful arrangement
of the piers, they have first been placed so that the
deepest is in forty feet of water, and foundations for
them have been sunk by driving piles into the mud
as far as they would go, cutting these off at the sur
face of the mud by means of a circular saw, operated
from above, and then building the granite piers upon
them.
The building of these piers, and the successfUl
planting of them directly upon their foundations,
has been accomplished in the following novel man
ner A huge box of heavy boiler-iron of the exact
size of the desired pier, and baring a massive white
pine timber base, is suspended by six immense
screws between - two temporary wharves upon each
site of the foundation. Into this box the masons
lower their nicely hewn blocks of granite, and
grote hem in with cement, exactly filling the
bottom. Another course of boiler-iron is then added
to the box, and closely riveted ; the great screws are
turned.aud the work gradually lowered. Another
course of masonry is then added, another course of
boiler-iron, another turning of the screws, and thus
the Cyclopean work goes on until it finally rests
upon the driven piles, and is surrounded with loose
masses of granite to break the force of the current.
The ironwork of the superstructure is at the same
lime going on, and by the time the last pier is capped
the whole will be ready. From this point the double
track is already completed all the way to Washing
ton; the enterprising managers of the Baltimore
and Ohio road taking up the line at Baltimore and
carrying it on over newly4aid tracks, new and
massive bridges of stone and iron, &a. ' until it
reaches the gates of the capital, landing their pas
sengers safely from the same cars by which they
leave the Jersey City ferry.
FORTY DAYS IN JERUSALEM.—ReV. Wm.

neighboring towns. Many of his lectures are devo
ted to the benefit of the United States Sanitary
Commission. His ability has been recognized. The
Gettysburg Star and Benner thus speaks of his lec
ture: The Rev. Win. White Williams, A. M., of
New York, who has travelled extensively in Awe
ries, Europe, Asia, and Africa, has lived in the city
of Jerusalem forty days, during March and April,

pleasing, interesting, and instructive, by Rev. Dm.
Hopkins, Spring, Hutton, Burohard, Smith,
Rice Hitchcock, Cuyler, Hagee, Hay, Diehl,
Nevin, Newman, Schaft; Wolff, Ex-Governor
Pollock, and many other eminent authorities.
This lecture Was delivered at half past 7 o'clock of
Tuesday, January 19th, in the Presbyterian Church,
Gettysburg, Pa. The entire receipts of this lecture
are for the monument in ,the National cemetery at
Gettysburg. This lecture was illustrated by many
rare and very interesting curiosities from Jerusa
lem, and by seven new and large maps and sixty
pictures, and by the superb costumes of a Syrian lady
and a Eyrian peasant, shown in tableaux vivants.
The peasant's dress shows the leathern girdle and
camel's hair garment, as worn by John the Baptist.
Mr. Williams says, in his circular, I have two ob
jects in - these lectures, namely : First, and chiefly,
to do good ; second, to pay off debts necessarily in
curred while traveling for my health. Until this
most infernal rebellion is utterly subdued, the chief
duty of all Americans, as citizens, is to wisely use
every energy to crush out treason, and secure a per
manent peace founded on the eternal principles of
truth, liberty and union. These lines contain my
political creed since I heard, when in Syria, that
the rebels had bombarded Fort Sumter. Not having
physical health sufficient for the army, I will right
gladly help the brave defenders of our country by fea
turing in behalf of our heroic sick and wounded sol
diers, or to provide the whitens and sailors of our
Union with religious reading, or health and tempe
rance tracts.

Eekfelt et al. vs. J. Starr—ln Equity.—This is a mo
tion on behalf of Eikfelt and Imlay Trustees, under
a certain mortgage given by the Richmond and
Schuylkill Passenger asilway Co., to secure bonds
issued by , that corporation, for an injunction to re
strain the respondent a judgment creditor, and the
Sheen - from proceeding to sell under a Pi-fa. from
the District Court the equipments of the road, such
as horse., cars, &a.
The argument of the motion for an injunction in
the case was resumed yreaterday morning, and took
quite a wide range, but was dually brought down to
quite a narrow compass. lilr. C. Guillou, for re
spondent, contended that the complainants had no
remedy in equity, but should go into the District
Court, and interplead in the ordinary way ; that the
mortgage did not cover the property levied upon,
and gave no title thereto to the trustees. Mr Guinea
made other points and cited various acts of Aasembly
in support of his views, and argued that the injunc
tion should not issue. '
Mr. Vail, appointed sequestrator by the District
Court, represented by Messrs. S. D. Perkins and J.
B. Guest, asked permission to come in and be made
a party of record to the proceeding, and desired that
the injunction issue.
The argument was concluded by E. Spencer Mil
ler, who contended that the remedy in equity in this
form was a proper one ; that the mortg age was a
valid mortgage of the franchise, and did give title to
the trustees ;land that upon the faith of previous de
cisions in this very cause, acts had been done and
bonds given, which, if those decisions were disre
garded, would bring innocent parties into trouble,
and perhaps involve them in serious loss.
Judge Thompson held the matter under advise
ment.

[Before Er. Alderman Battler.
lEnlisting .1111noirs.
A case of peculiar interest came up for investiga
tion at the Central station yesterday afternoon, in
regard to the enlistment of minors. There are so
many boys in several of the camps in different parts
of the State, that the indignation of the higher
order of military authorities has been aroused some
what, and they have written to others to have the
matter stopped. The army wants no one unless
coming within thebounda of the law.
Yesterday afternoon, Peter fficA.voy, tavern
keeper at Front and Rced streets, James Smith,
keeper of a lodging house, at the corner of Front
and Christian streets, were arrested by officer
Sheer, of the first dada, on the charge of con
spiracy. The warrant of arrest was issued on the
oath of Rosanna Downey, residing at No. 1828 Au
burn street, and Sarah Smith, residing at No. 1026
south Third < street, charging the defendants and
others with conspiring together to induce the
minor sons of complainants to abscond, and also
aiding and abetting the said sons to enter the army.
The evidence in the case was given by Charles
Smith, John W. Downey, and Thomas Quin, all of
them being under 18 years old. The evidence of
Downey was the moat comprehensive. Ile testified
that he was standing at the corner of Second and
Wrishington streets when James McCody asked him
if Le did not want to enlist in Company F, 4th Union
League Regiment, to go to Pottsville, where $lOO
extra bounty was paid ; the witness replied yes, and
he and Charles Smith went with McCody to James
Smith's lodging house, Front and Christian streets ;
saw some fellows playing cards there-111000ft'
asked both boys to take a drink—young Smith took
sarsaparilla—then went to another house, where
witness drank some wine and blackberry brands,
which made him drunk.
. .
Next morning MeAvoy gave a man named Riley
$l5 to pay our passage to Pottsville ; We Met
another man ; don't know his name; went to a ma
gistratt's office ; 1110:Jody and Tim Riley inquired of
ineif me if I would go as a substitute, and I replied
no ; I wanted to go as a volunteer, and not as a sub
stitute • DleCody told me to say that I had no mother;
James kn:dth must have heard this conversation, as
he was present; Smith offered us a bed to sleep in ;
IVlcCody said that man (one of the defendants) was
let lieutenant of company F, 4th U. S. regiment ; he
said to,him, "You are first lieutenant, ain't youi'l
the man replied yes; hicOody told me to keep on the
right side of him ; I have found out since that he
was not a lieutenant; I did not know that I was re
ceived as a substitute until after I was sworn in.
Thomas Quin, who came very - near being served
in the same manner, threw a little more light on
this subject, as follows: On being sworn, he said
that he had a talk with Mr. Smith and Mr. McOody ;
the latter wanted him to go as a substitute; he re.
fused, but said hewould not mind volunteering in
the 4th Union League Regiment; Smith measured
me, and said I would pace; Smith asked me how
old I was ; I replied sixteen years ; then he said I
must say I was eighteen 3 , ears old last April ; he
said I would Wof April by knowing I would make
an April fool of The m;MoOody wanted me to cheek
my bounty to him; Ireiuned to do so, and he would
not enlist me.
The defendants were bound over to answer at
court.
[Before Mr. 11. S. Commissioner A. H. Smith.)
The Bark A One.
We yesterday gave the principal points in regard
to the seizure and detention of the bark A. One,
Captain Crosby. The investigation was resumed
at noon yesterday, the only witness on the stand
being Benjamin Franklin, the chief of the detective
force of the city. He was subjected to a very long
examination, much of the testimony being irrele
vant, and too voluminous for popular reading.
It was evident, from some remarks made, that the
ease has failed, and that the Hon. Mr-Stanton, in
liberating the vessel from the first seizure, knew
exactly what he was about.
The vessel 2 as she now lays in the Delaware, is re
ported to be in a dangerous condition, and likely to
become Impaired.
The evidence of Chief Franklin may be summed
up in a single wort!—hearsay, which in law is no evi
dence at fill. A. number of statements were made to
him, all of 'which seemed to bear hard down upon
the case, and, acting upon them, the second seizure
was ordered by U. S. District Attorney Coffey.
The vessel will probably be released by Judge
Cadwalader.
Ellifore Mr. Alderman White.]
Amicably Settled.
The partieo who were arrested, as stated yesterday,
on the charge of committing an assault and battery
upon Mr. B. 0. Major, and sending hima challenge,
have been discharged, the prosecutor withdrawing
the suit. It seems that the entire affair originated
Ina mistake, and as nobody was seriously injured, it
has been amicably settled.

Having already presented, in the first division of this
article, the fundamental principles applicable to the
Safe, and, having, as I think, clearly and truthfully
shown tee very great advantages the Chilled-iron Safe
Possesses over the Sheet-Iron or common Safe as a Fire-
Proof, in this second division, I shall endeavor to show
that its advantages as a Burglar-Proof are still more im
portant; and to do tide I shall commence with the
fourth_ proposition_ as laid downin the find division
Fourth, The indi.peneable requirements necessary to
make a Hangar-2.m0/ reliable.
Fifth, The serious defects is the common Safe as a Bar
gle r Proof.
Sixth, The great advantages the Chilled-Iron Safe pos
se,.ses as a Burglar-proof.
What are the indispensable requirements to make a
Burglar Proof reliable
First, Strength—strength sufficient to resist any raw
sonable amount of sledging; sufficient, also, to protect
the lock fram the action of the drill or punch.
Second, The material must be drill-proof all over the
outer surface There should not even be a rivet, or any
thing wrought iron, that can in the least be affected by
the drill or any cutting instrument.
Third, The look must be secure fronithe lock-pick, also
from powder. and must work without a key ; that is, it
must be a mental lock, and must be so attached to the
door that it cannot be displaced by any means practical
for a burglar.
What are the serious defects in the common Safe as a
Burglar-Proof?
The first defect is want of strength. By referring to its
structure, it will be seen teat its whole strength consists
in thin plates of iron, held together by bands, and acces•
Bible to every implement in a burglar's-possession; the
rivets can be drawn from the thin plate readily with a
pointed bar, and the whole side of a safe laid open; a
hole may be punched through the panel of the door, and
the powder applied; the door may be driven in in the
centre, by a blow or two; this throws out the edge, and
the sharp pointed bar pries open the door; and in a great
variety of ways its want of strength has proved fatal. 2
The second defect is its exposure to the drill and all cut
ting implements The outer surface being wrought iron,
in which ite whole strength consists, it is accessible to.
the burglar in every way. The chisel cuts out readily a
square in the panel; the dnll, through a succession of
holes, takes out a square in front of the lock; and if the
plate of hardened steel still remains in front, it is easily
broken and removed; a single hole is drilled in the door.
the powder is applied, and the door forced open; a single
hole is drilled on the side of the safe opposite to the end
of one of the door-bolts, a punch forces the bolts back,
and the door opens.
These are some of the ways in which robberies have
already been committed, but only a few compared with
the many. I think, however. they are quite sufficient
to show that a safe must be drill-proof to be burglar
proof.
The third defect is its inability to protect a look from
the burglar.
The outer structure of the door being wrought iron.
which constitutes its strength, it is plain that the lock
cannot be protected. A hole drilled in any part of the
door, through the outer plate. even though there may be
a steel plate behind, the powder can be applied and the
door- flanges forced off, and the lock exposed; a square
may be taken out iii front of the lock by the drill. and
the steel plate is easily broken; a jack-screw or sledge
will easily force the lock from its position by measure,
as the strength of the door cannot sustain it, and it must
be conceded that the lock cannot be protected,
What are the great advantages the Chilled-Iron Safe
hoe as a Burglar-Proof?
By referring to the structure of the Chilled-Iron Safe.
it will be noticed that the outer structure is a solid body
of wrought and cast iron, from one and a quarter to two
inches thick; the outer surface drill-proof sal over.
without joints or rivets ; and as the wrought iron is on
the inner surface, and the cast iron is on the outer. the
wrought iron cannot be weakened by the drill, or any
cutting implement , or even bent or displaced ' by the
sledge, as the cast iron will not band; consequently, it
will stand any reasonable amount of sled ging . (M s
not practical for the burglar to do much). Therefore, it
is entirely reliable in this respect
The door being generally one and a half to two Inches
thick. solid iron, and drill- proof, it has the strength to
*protect the lock; and all that is required le to properi
attach the lock , which has been done It will be notice d
also. that the Chilled-Iron Safe is so protected against
the drill, and all cutting implements, that the burglar
has nothing left to rise bat the sledge, which is imprac
ticable, and unless he can pick the lock he fails.
The Chilled. iron Safe has the new locks attached—the
Bank or Duodecagon Lock, and the Monitor or the Mer
cantile Lock. These locks are mental, and'Work by
numbers, without key. The number of chances are
from 250,000 to 5,000.1-00. They are attached to the door
by a hardened steel bolt. which turns in a hardened
steel socket fitted to a hole in the door of the form of a
taper, the largest diameter outside. This prevents the
lock from being dieplaced by any outward force, and the
depth of hardened steel prevents the action of the drill.
and there is no keyhole to apply powder. These locks
have an ingenious piece of mechanism attached called
the Antimicrometer Attachment, which places them en
tirely beyond the lock-pick; while all the other and beat
bank leeks are or may be picked through the aid of the
machine called the Micrometer.
A keyed lock cannot be called a Burglar-Proof Lock.
With the aid of the Micrometer all keyed locks are rea
dily picked. The keyes are liable to be stolen at any
time; a wag imprecision may be taken from the key in
an instant, and a false key obtained; the key may be
lost. and get into dishonest hands; in most cases powder
may be applied through the key-bole without the aid of
the drill, as powder will go where the key goes, and it
is found extremely difficult to make a keyed. lock *war
der-proof Indeed, every day's exuerlence Proves the
key ed lock entirely unreliable against burglary,
Having very briefly, and, I trust, fairly presented the
points proposed, in their order. I have only to request
that all parties interested will critically review this ar
ticle: first, to fully understand the fundamental princi
ple. applicable to the safe, without which they cannot
Judge as to its merits; second, to, learn and to fully an
predate ;he very great advantages the Chilled-Iron Safe
has over the common bate, both as a Fire Proof and a
Buralar• Proof.
_ . .
I would say, further, that the statistics allow that
tlere are thousands of dollars lost by burglary to one
dollar by fire in Safes, and daily experience provee the
importance of the Burglar -Proof Rafe.
