Seddon, Secretary of-War: General Early reports
that the enemy advanced against him on the
24th inst, at Newmarket. He fell back to Port
Republlo. ,
, On.the 25th the enemy advanced towards Harri
sonburg, his cavalry having probably passed
■ throtigh that place. , .
This laconic report gives us no further inlbrma
tlon of yesterday’s operations, of course, and so the
rumors must run their course for some hours longer.

' i’ot,-KOTs of the Late Defeats.—The abondon
inentoi Atlanta and Winchester has led to much
speculation and great dejection among the faint
hearted. They fancy Georgia already Is leagued
■with the enemy and Lynchburg once more endan
gered by a brutal fanatic. It is of no use to reason •
with such men—they will only' hear what they
■choose, tear closes their eyes and self-interest olouda
their«judgment.-. They seek a sorry satisfaction in
blaming an unsuccessful general, and delight in
proving how,.easiiy..aU, mishaps might have been'
avoided. The oalmeir judgment, the warmer patri
otism, sees no Buoh reason for: despondency. -All
that IS really to be deplored Is the -loss of men.
Xives are'-preclowß with us, and a few thousands
tell heavily in the scales. Butjfrom official sources,
-wederlye the comfort that tho supply of youths
coming of age, together with revoked details, will
-enable most enrolling officers to 1 replace, to use
their, terminology, one man, and, a half for every
man lest. Generals,like Eodes aro not so easily;

abundance in our. ranks, and much' more truly;
than in -Napoleon’s far-famed armies. fhave
<our men the marshal’s baton In tholr. knap
sacks. Our. forces in Virginia, whose- people have,
after all, been tbe backbone , and the brains of the
revolution, and whose ensanguined fields will yet
: see the God of Battles decide in our favor, may not
-be strong enough to attack, but are amply sufficient
to resist. The lines of Grant are- already so danger
<: ’ tiusTylengthened that ere long his centre may be pierced,
, . and his position seriously endangered/ Trying to per
form that mcsthazardousami critical movement—
®n attack bn both flanks—which even Napoleon at
, tempted but on ce with success, at Dresden—he dare
not lead his dispirited troops to a brave escalade,
■and waits in vain for his skuful adversary to com
mit, a fault by whiefche might profit.; The noble
citizens of Petersburg, emulating, the composure
and ready sacrifices of their; neighbors lit the-oapi
tai, stand yet undaunted by the long siege; and in
both eitieß the increase.of danger seems only to aug
ment the courage and/devotion of the inhabitants.
They have not yet suffered as the Tenitians did in
1849, when more than baif of their grand old city was
-under the fire of. bombs ann red-hot halls in the dead
of night; amid the shower of shot, the crash of crum
bling walls, the light of blazing houses, the whole
population of. the threatened quarters went forth,
calm, resigned, without a murmur; old men and strip
pllngs, women and children. “ They .may drive us
from our homes, but cannot terrify us into submis
sion,” they exclaimed ; and have /not hundreds and
thousands of our own people said and done the same ?
Such men are worthy of independence:; they are
: sure to conquer it sooner or later. The very mar
tyrs who seal their demotion with their life’s blood,
like a Jackson and Rodes, alter having proved
their love of country by deeds of martial daring and
marvellous triumphs, are our guarantees of success.
They are men who cannot perish, whose voices from
the sepulchre defeat the cause to which their exist
ence has been devoted. In their lonely, but not un
honored, graves they still plead with unanswerable .
eloquence, the champions in death, as In- life, of
their native land. The nation that gave birth to
suoh hearts, that can boast such'devotion, such he
roism as our noble troops have displayed in every
campaign, on every battle-field, has already proved
that she has men worthy of liberty and men capable
of directing her destinies, s ;; . , ; .
And, if the enemy has moved a few miles up the
•great valley, so full of lofty memories of well-earned
victories and unparalleled campaigns—what of that 1
Has it not already been traversed by his lawless
soldiers from end to end, and yet it clings more
closely to our fate than child. ever hung on Its
mother’s bosom. Thanes be .to God, who blinded
our adversary and led him to exchange a.wisa policy
of toleration, which might have oost us dearly, for a
m&d and fanatic tyranny, which changes the luke
warm friend into an aidont patriot, and converts
even the Union-loving loyalist into a warm South
erner. We are not the first people whose indolence
, and ready acquiescence had to be burned out with
fire.- We alto have had to learn that suffering is a
; slgn of life—nay, often one of its essentia! condi
; tions.—Enquirer, 27M. ;/;, ~.
> : Fobrest’s Advance.—The Enquirer copied from'
an Alabama paper the following hope that Forrest
will soon commit more of those dastardly' outrages
-which have rendered him notorious: ? ’ ;
The Yankees in-Memphis have it that Forrest has
“crossed the line,” of course into .Tennessee or into:
North Alabama. If so, says the /Montgomery 'A d
'oertiser, a brighter day will soon dawn ;upon the :
Confederacy. He, of all others, is qualified and has
the prestige to break and keep broken Sherman’s
communication, and compel him to takenp stakes at
Atlanta. ’ The Fort Pillow: affair is-fresh in’the
minds of all Yankee garrisons and troops; so that ;
■when Forrest is repotted advancing their -cowardly
hearts fail them In anticipation of the doom they
certainly expect and know they so richly de*
. serve, if General Forrest has been turned loose
with hi* invincible band, there; will: be a rat
tling of thehones, not ,of the dead, as' in the
vision of Ezekiel, but among the bones of live Yan
kees. His pathway will be a valley of death, where
the bones wlll bleaoh for years after this war shall
close. Create him Lieutenant General, or place
the cavalry of the army of Tennessee under Ms
command without orders, and the legions of Sher
man would be fleeing towards Yankeedom, as If
pursued' by the besom of destruction. The .whole'
country demands it, looking to him as the great,
cavalry leader, and marked out for tho executios of
the fleelslvework In the rear. He has proven equal
to any task or exploit upon wMch he has consented
to enter, whether with a small or a large force, and
always against odds. Fight wlth-bim Is to kill and
wrench victory fiom the enemy. In the new field
, Indicated, we believe that he will display his great
military genius to more advantage,.than on any
former occasion, and: prove a destroying angel to
the modem Sennacherib.
Speech of Jeff Davis at Salisbury.—Pre
sident Davis passed through Salisbury, N. C., a few
days ago, en route for tbe South. He was greeted
at the depot of that place by a large number of citi
zens. The Salisbury (N/ C. )■Watchman says:
On the arrival of the train, it being certainly as
certained that he was aboard, he was waited on by
Mayor Shaver and Messrs. Hal! and Shober, who
conducted him to the platform, from which he de
livered a pretty little speech.
He paid a high compliment to North Carolina, to
the firmness and patriotism of her,people, and espef
cially to the gallantry or her troops, as.eyincedon
the many Woody battle-fields ofYirginia, beginning,
■with the first battle of Bethel down to that of
Reams’ station. He said though the tongue of slan
der had. been busy they had; redeemed every pledge
of their; State, and shown their determination to be
free and independent of the hataful enemy.
He adverted to our recent reverses, and said
though late reverses had befallen our arms, and a
gloom hung over us for the time, the spirit of the
lonfederaoy was Unbroken, and that yet, under the
blessings of God, we should wring peace and inde
pendence from a hated foe. He advised all men
able, to bear arms to rally to the assistance offthose
brave men already in the field.' The camp is now
the place to secure lhe priceless heritage handed
down to us by; our Revolutionary fathers. . Eat every
soldier now absent return at once to his command.
If in Lee’s army, go there; if in /Hood’s, go there;
and let every man do what he may, whether In the
army or at home, to sustain the efforts making- to
liberate us from the despotism.of a cruel enemy.
■He also-applauded the ladies'for their service
■ and untiring devotion to the cause, and urged them
to resolve to marry no man Who had shirked the re
sponsible duties of a soldier, but;rather take the
one-armed soldier who had proved his fidelity and
manhood in baitling for. our common rights, than
be who had not proved the possession of either.—

The ..Tbans-Mississifpi Department.—The
editor Montgomery Advertiser had a call from
Major A. S. Rose, the successful trans-Mississippi
courier, who Is now on his twenty-eighth trip. He
left Houston the 20th August, was detained at’An
derson several days, passed Shreveport on the; 29th,,
and crossed the Father of Waters on the 7th ult. '
He confirms all the previous reports of the satisfac
tory condition of affairs in the trans-Mississippi De
partment. General Magruder has gone into Ar
kansas with a very heavy force, and will drive the
last invader from the State, anddo other things that
should have been done long since. General Price
was over tho line In Missouri, and the brave sons of
that State were flocking to his standard. Kirbv
Smith was at Shreveport. Major Rose is en route
Tor Richmond with official despatches, and will re
turn about the Ist of October. ■/.:./■
.‘. Charleston.—The Richmond papers of the 26th
contain, the following despatches, dated Charles- -
ton, Sept 23 Truce communications took place In
the harbor to-day. Eighteen Yankee surgeons and
chaplains were released by us. A number of women
and children were sent on board the, Yankee, truce
steamer. A clergymen and five soldiers came into
our lines to-day. Stores and clothing, to the
amount of one hundred and fifty boxes, from the
/New York Sanitary Commission, for. the Yankee
prisoners in our hands, were reeeived . and brought
to the city. Our returned prisoners report a recent
increase of troops at Hilton Head from New York.
On the Ist of October an exchange of naval prison
ers wßl.take place in the harbor. Four hundred
more Confederate prisoners have been placed in the
pens on Morris Island, ,
The Charleston Courier of the 22d says :
The proper disposition of the prisoners is com
manding attention, as we are pleased-to' learn irom
exchanges, - Many friends have expressed approval.
of the proposition that has appeared In the Courier
Tor a conditional release, on self-parole; of all pri
vates, against whom no charges of violations of war
rules.are brought. 'All justly liable to.suoh charges !
•should be demanded by and delivered to the State
having jurisdiction. Ail prisoners who are good
-workmen, in any .line could be and should be released
Tor employment, under proper-regulations add sti
pulations, with such guarantees as they can give
and should he exacted. A pursuit and adoption of
these; rules would soon solve the problem of pri
: soners, or divest it of all troublesome features, and
leave us only the officers, of whom many more could

* 'The Georgia 7 Peace Propositions.—The
same paper contains the following editorial:.
It should never be forgotten that one'great cause
of the catastrophe which has destroyed the Union
as it was, past all possibility of restoration, was the
violation of the distinctive rights and neglect of the
duties of the States. A recurrence to the States
must therefore form a part of any solution of the
war question, and a faithful observance of therights
and relative duties of the States must be a condi

length on the propositions for peace tendered by Ge

A friend whose wife was left an invalidln Atlan

says that at her request Gen. Sherman cameto see
her, and finding her unable to, attend to the arrange

all bound up nicely and transported to our lines,
even to her washtub.
The Federal General had three hours conversa
tion with her, and justified at length his'order for
the removal, insisting that in his exposed position,
liable to be cut off and besleged.it was the part of
humanity to require that non-combatants should
not be exposed to the privations and perils to which
his army must probably be subjected ; and worse,
because he could hot provide food for a large popu

Enlistmbnt.of Poles.— The Charleston Courier
publishes a report to the effect that envoys from
Poland have had an interview with President Davis,
and that the result would be the enlistment of some
thirty thousand Polish soldiers in the Confederate'
army, at an early day. The Courier says: 1 under
stand that there will be no difficulty in the de
parture of these immigrants from their own ooun-«
try, and as they are expected to arrive during the
winter months, we may confidently hope (should
nothing ocour to mar the plan), to witness, at the
beginning of the spring campaign, a grand army of
foreign allies of a race that, centuries ago, smote
the Saracenic power in Europe, and drove back the
tide of Turkish aggression upon .Constantinople,
RELIGIOUS jINTELLWISCS,
New Pastor op the First Baptist Church.
—Our readers will remember that soon after the
-commencement of the war several of our churches
were relieved of their pastors on account - of certain
exlstlng.SouHieni affinities j that among this num.
ber, as noticed by us at the time, was the First Bapl
tist Church, at Bread and Arch streets; and that,
.since Mr. Cutbbcrt’s resignation, the pulpit of this
church has been without a regular pastor. To the
credit of this congregation, however, it may be said,
that during this protracted deprivation of a pastor
it has hot relaxed its zeal as a live church, ahd that
in everything pertaining to a community of Chris
tians, the congregation maintains as flourishing and
- prosperous a condition to-day as has at any time
markedits honored history among tho churches of ‘
our city. " : ■' '
To-morrow, October 2d, their newly-elected pas
tor, the Rev. George Dana Boardman, will formal
ly enter upon his new charge, bet ng, announced to
preach at io>£ o’clock in the morning, and at 7)£
in the evening. Mr. Boardman is a stepson to the
eminent missionary to,lndia) therlate Rev.' Dr,'Jud
son; was born in Vermont, and has for some years
past been one of the most esteemed and effiblent mi
nisters of the. Gospel in the city of Rochester, New;
York. He enters upon his new field under the most;
flattering auspices. His'hall was marked with the
greatest unanimity, and ho man ever assumed the
charge of a church whofiould with more bonttdonoe
count upon the hearty co-operation of its' member
ship in .every good word and work.
The Sunday schools connected with - this church
are among the most thorough and best managed or
ganizations of the kind in Philadelphia, and it is
ho unmerited compliment To their accomplished
superintendent and teachers to say that their efforts,
in the absence of a pastor, have redounded greatly
to the continued prosperity of the congregation.
We would also state that the choir of the “ First
Baptist” Church, which has been newly,organized,
and which numbers such excellent performers as
Professor Michael Gross, organist, Mrs. Behrens,
the soprano, Miss Mary Green, the' contralto, Mr.
Foley, the tenor, and Mr. Dutcher, the bass singer,
is hardly excelled, if equalled, by any other la this
city. :
Evangelical . Lutheran Theological Semi
nary in Philadelphia.— The most important
movement, perhaps, in its whole history, has been
; made by the venerable: Synod of Pennsylvania, in
the establishment of a Theological Seminary in Phl
: ladeiphia. The instructions in the new institution
are to be throughout in conformity with the doc
trines of the Reformation, as confessed at the Diet
of Augsburg, in 1530, and afterwards Jn the.other
symbolß of the Lutheran Church. Thorough in
struction will he given in all departments of theo

all of whom have consented to serve, are as follows :

been commenced with flattering success, the first sab

the securing of permanent hiiUdings; the lectures
will probably be given in the rooms or St.‘ Mark’s

The Catholic Conqress at Malines.— This
body closed Its> labors <jn_the 3d ult. The address
of the Bishop of Orleans was the most important
delivered, hut there were several, other excellent
orators, both clerical and lay. Interesting reports
; of the state of the Church in Spain, Poland, and
Ireland were made. In Ireland the regular and
secular clergy and the religious orders, had greatly
increased since the beginning of the present cen
tury. A Hungarian, in his national costume,'gave
an account, In French, of the Church In. Hungary .
In England it was stated that the:'clergy had in
creased three-fold since the year of Catholic eman
cipation, and in the Diocese of Westminster four
fold. An account was given by M. Lo Normaut of
Church affairs in Greece and the lonian Islands,
and of the massacres of Syria, of which he was a
witness. The sitting closed with a banquet, at
which nearly three hundred of the members of the
Congress were gathered.
Scarcity of Clergymen in ( the English

ing singular article, whleh wiH doubtless cause sur
prise to many of our readers. Few persons In this
country would have thought that the established;
(Church of England was actually in want or clergy

It is probably within ■ the knowledge of most
readers that the profession of Holy Orders has for
some time past been suffering apparently in popular
esteem. It is-not thought so good a profession as
formerly. It is actually understocked, .while other
professions-are overcrowded. Fewer men in pro

University graduates' gives a ,f preferenee to other
callings, and,leave the Church to be served by. men
without the distinction of an academical degree.
But as “ Church extension” is rapidly going on all
this while, the result is a want of ministers, and at
•last'the “scarcity of curates” becomes; as our co
lumns have, shown, a topic of,public discussion.
We are not sure that the question-haß yet been
rightly,apprehended. < It has more than one aspect,
and will not present the same features from every
point of view. ;

,Bev. C. J..Ehrchart, treasurer, presented his re
port, from which it appears that the following
amounts.were. collected ■ and disbursed during his
tenA of office: 'Synodical-Treasury; ,8298;.H0me
Missions, 1 $916; Foreign Missions, $754; Beneficiary
- Education; $T,602. ; /As.the contributions: ofsoine of
the congregations do not flow through the . channel

The report of the retiring president, Rev. R. A.

that the pastoral changes during that time I have
been unusuaUy frequent. l A number of ministers
have removed without our limits, ' and others have
been received. ' Three new churches- are in; course
of erection—viz :• At Mt.: Carmel,, Schuylkill ‘coun

vania Synod with, the Mlnlsterium of Pennsylvania,
to® rothiEg presidentexpresses the opinion that
“ further action on-the jpart of: this’body; on this
subject, would be alike dishonorable and superfluous.
The entire matter, having been treated by the one
party most, cavalierly, it is recommended that the
proposed'.union of, the two bodies be held in'abey
ance until the older Synod, by its action, (shall
make it possible for this Synod to further entertain
the subject, and at the same time maintain its own
honor and self-respect.” The report concludes.as
follows: “ Duty to ourselves and to the cause of our
Divine Master, peremptorily eniolus upon us to
plant ourselves more firmly than ever upon the
great principles' and purposes which led to the for
mation of.the Synodr.of.Bast Pennsylvania. Be
lieving that the territory we occupy belongs of
right to King Jesuß, and that we have a well-au-j
thentioated .commission to possess and cultivate it
for him, we should enter upon our mission with
new zeal and; redoubled energy: No, one can any
longer Occupy middle ground, Ho that iv not
for us is.against us. Our Synod, Lag a work to do,
and to do lt( wisely and well, may the Lord give her
wisdom and strength, to the end that the Evangeli
cal Lutheran Church in East Pennsylvania may
becomea living power for good, and to redeemed
sinners a very ark of salvation.” The report was
