Ilia I7eTT Presbyterian Chnrch Its His
.tcrv, Architecture, Cost, Dedication,
The Presbyterian? of StrcuiLburg having
.-.or.- taken full posy:on of their new church,
tiikc this occasion to ppeak of its History,
Eljht years ago last June, when the Con-
trv. -Ration was under the Pastoral charge of
i'ev. Myron Barrett, the first steps were taken
t . wards securing the building of the church.
A committee was appointed to secure a suita
ble lot, and the Trustees were directed to soli
cit Pt:b'-ription.,. In November, of the same
year, the report of the solicitors showed $3,000
m:l scribed, and an offer of $1,000 for the old
Church ; and, thereupon, the Trustees and Ses
sion were appointed a joint Board to purchase
s fuitable lot, and make preperations to begin
building in the coraing firing.
The Trustees, in December, entered into a-f-rc
client with Mr. Teter II. Iloheson for the
let nov occupied by the new church building .
. ut t! ; ??:-rir of 18G1 found the air filled with
'rmcer-: cf war. The country was convulsed.
Fear and distrait drove the Congregation first
to 1 :lvI ten cy, and then to abandon the under-
'.-king. TLi9 was a great mistake, for then the
building could have been erected for half its
present cotst. The drafts and plui, which had
been sccureil, were hud aside, and, for the time
.the idea of a new Church was given up.
i.verr now and inen, however, the unbject was
talked cf. The need grew more and more pres
sing; but the obstacles still seemed to the ma"
jonty insurmountable. Changes, too, occurred
in the Pastorate.
.When the present Pastor, Rev. B. S. Everitt,
begun his labors, in July, 1-SG4, he soon saw
that more church accommodation aud conve
nience and beauty, were independable to the
'jrccJcd prosperity of the Congregation. This
fooling he niad known and urged in his see.
ond anniversary sermon, and followed it by an
can:ct efibrt at securing subscriptions. But
the eucoursgement was far too little to justify
any farther tteps, and the enterprise slept, and
many feared forever.
During the winter of ISGS.and 6 when the
Borough enjoyed such a gracious revival of
religion thus Congregation shared largely ia the
bluing. The nuiulers the .d&d to it made
the eld building ttill more incosyenietit, aod
again there were cfiorts saade to secure subscrip
tion?, and witli a success double that of anv for-
icr effort. The lot was selected, and the
Building Committee appointed. On adverti
sing for prvijosol, the lowest bid was but a lit
Ic h.s than $I7,0(hJ dollars. That amount of
:hr fongnrgstion cwM uot rais, and,!
therefore, were about to abandon tho work,
when, through the estimates and persuasions of
Mr. Jeremy Mackey, and the Pastor, th Buil
ding Committee were induced to commence the
work, each one pledging himself to do all he
could to lessen the expense. This they did
and the building stands completed, at a cost of
$o,000 lew than the lowest estimate. W will
not take time to note the difficulties of the
work. Helping hands, and cheering word,
and generous, substantial gifts were given by
many friends at home and abroad, and there
have been no dclars for lack of funds. The
Pastor, the Building Committee, the Ladies,
and the Children have all worked hard, and
have never allowed obstacle to stop them ; and
the work etands as a crowning victory of perse
verance, good management, liberality and, most
of all, God's ble.sing.
The architecture of the Church is Roman
esque in style. The size is 45 by 75 feet, with
a tower projecting five feet. Tho spire is 132
feet high. The walls of the main room are neat
ly frescoed the work by Faulkenreck A Kei
nisr. of Elizabeth, N. J- who have therein
shown themselves masters of the art. Th in
side painting was by Mason Tock, of our bor
ough, and reflects great credit on his taste and
skill. The builders, R. R. Cress, master ma
son, and Messrs. Garis & Houser, master car
penters, have ever been prompt and obliging J
and the whole structure evidences clearly that
for neat and even difficult workmanship, our
citizens need rot gooutsids of our own borough.
We are glad to see the people understand this,
as all the mechanics who, on the Church, so
well displayed their ability, have been eagerly
sought for, and are now overprc?ed with work
The building cost, in round numbers, without
furniture or bell, 512,000. It has been most
neatly furnished, by the Ladies, including a
very comfortable and pleasant study, for $1,200.
The Bell, the gift of tht Sabbath School, cost
$150. The lot cost $2,200. The elegant and
eupurb Bible on the pulpit, was the gift of
Thomas Mcl'lrath, !., of New York eity.
The Hymn Books were presented by the In
fant Class, and the pulpit furniture by the Sun
day School.
The building thus described, was dedicated
on Thursday last, October Sth. An interesting
programme had been arranged, and was, in
the main, carried out. At the afternoon meet
ing, the Pastor presided. The exercises were
opened by an Anthem from the Choir, which,
under the leadership of Mr. Ed. II. Hiblerdid
him and them great credit, as well as added
vastly to the spirit and interest of the occasion.
The pieces were appropriately selected,
the parts well sustained, the solos admira
bly executed, and leader and members show
ed that they had taken pains to prepare foj
i he occasion and were able to meet it satis
factorily The Rev. Wm. M. Ridpwav, of
the M. E. Church, the Rev. David Tully. of
Beiviurre, of the Presbyterian Church, Rev.
A. Mc Williams, of BushkilLof Ref. Church,
and Rev Henry Seifert, of Luth. Church,
took part in the pulpit exercises of the af
ternoon, while the Sermon an admirable
and able one was preached by Rev. John
Hall. D. D. of N. Y. City, and the Dedica
tory Prayer was offered by the Rv. Wm. C,
Cattell, D. D. President of Lafayette Col
lege. The financial statement allowed a debt ofj
1,873 on the builuing, and S 1,500 on the
Lot. 1,200 was secured during the day
towards liquidating this debt, and steps are
being taken which it is expected will further
reduce it.
In the evening iaterestiny services were
held, at which the Pastor presided. Revp.
Scribner and Barrett, former PaMors of the
Church, gave addresses', and letters from
Revs. Johnson. Miller and Cain also former
Pastor?, were read, expressing a deep inter
est in the Church, and sincere regrets at
their inability to be present and take part in
the exercises.
An article was lead, from Dr. Wm. P.
Vail, a former resident of the Borough and
Elder of the Church, in which he presented
in'ercsiing items concerning its early His
tory and some prominent residents of 39
years ago.
The Rev. Mr. Garrison of Dingman's Fer
ry, and the Rev, T. A. Sansom, of Blairs
town, took part in the exercises

General McClcilan has had public re
ceptions in New York and Philadelphia
since his return from Europe. That in
New York was altogether a Democratic
demonstration, but the one in Philadel
phia.on Thursday last, seems tohave been
more general. No political banners or
allusions were allowed in the procession,
which was two hours in passing the Con
tinental. The General still professes to
be a gooi Democrat, but he refuses to
connect himself with any public meeting
or demonstration in favor of Seymour and
Biair. lie knows well enough that Grant
will be elected, and does not want to make
any inconvenient committals at present
Chief-Justice Chase, lately a prominent
candidate for the Democratic nomination,
has now come out squarely for Grant and
Colfax. lie thinks that Seymour will
not get more than six or seven State..
Secretary Seward has come out on the
same platform, and is probably squinting
toward the mission to England, senator
Patterson of Tennessee, the Presiden't
son-in-law, who has been extremely "con
servative" since Johnson joined the Dem
ocrats, has also declared for Grant. These
men are all shrewd enough to see what
is coming, and are getting aboard th
Republican train before it ia too lata.
Connecticut is going to vote for Grant.
She was one of the few States that were
conceded to Seymour by most Republi
cans, but the will not stand by the clas
sification. Her town or local elections,
held all over the State last Monday, show
large Kepublican gains. Last spring the
Democratic majority for Governor was
over seventeen hundred ; this fall the ag
gregate Republican majority in the town
elections is about three thousand. This
vote determines where Connecticut will
be -in November. Add her six electoral
votes to the column of Grant and Colfax.
Let us of Pennsylvania, do ai well, and
we shall be satisfied.
It is estimated that there arc 225.000
thrashing-machines in the United States,
ithout counting the "school-marms."
Taxation of Bonds-A Democrat Speaks.
In speaking of the exemption of Uni
ted States bonds from State and local
taxation, Judge Comstock said :
'The law of Congress, under which
tho bonds are issued, declare their ex
emption from taxation by the States .and
the municipalities which exercise the tax
ing power understate authority. But
this is a constitutional principle without
an act of Congress. The credit of the
National Government is one of the means
and instrumentalities by which its delega
ted functions and powers are exercised
both in peace and war. If the States
could tax that credit at their pleasure or
caprice without the consent of Congress,
they might tax the Government of the
Union out of existence. The exemption,
therefore, exists by a political and con
stitutional necessity, and no ordinance of
Congress can add to its force. Ihe prin
ciples has long been settled in the juris
prudence of the country, and whether we
refer the exemption to the constitutional
principle or to the legtslatton of Con
grcs, it exists, for the sake of tho Gov
ernment rather than for the sake of the
holder of its bonds aud credit. It exists
for the sake of the Government, because,
without it the very existence of the U-
nion might depeud on the caprice of the
States."
This is the opinion expressed by Judge
Comstock, of Syracuse, a leading Demo
crat, in a speech delivered by him in that
city, August 1st. Now, does not this
show the falaoy of the great hullabaloo,
made by the Democratic orators, about
the taxation of the Government bonds.
They know well enough that they cannot
do it, even if they could get into power,
but they are in hopes they can get into
power on that hobby. The people arc
becoming more and more aware of their
perfidious schemes, aud they will see to
it on the 3d day of November, that such
machinations do not go down.

Judge Sharswood on Saturday last gave
his decision in regard to the conduct of
Prothonotary Soowdeo. The Judge de
clared that neither the Prothonotary nor
his clerk had done anything improper,
and directed the rule upon him to be dis
charged. Neither could he see anything
illegal or improper in the fact of papers
having been found in the pocket of John
Devine, and the rule in his cane was also
discharged. According to this view,
nothing at all wrong has been done. Jus
tice Agoew, however, has written a letter
to Mr. Snowden, emphatically disapprov
ing of his method of doing business in
the name of the Court. This letter has
the sanction of Justice Bead; and it
seems probable that this is the last time
that the Supreme Court will be run as a
machine

A Democratic correspondent in Ar

"The Democracy of our State have

How the Rebels Howl !
Tho Rebel Democracy are boisterous
in their denunciations of the Public Ex
penditures under Republican rule. They
don't like it that millions were expended
to keep on the waters a fleet to protect
the commerce of the Union from being
plundered by the Democratic pirates who
roved the high seas. And, lest it should
be disputed that these pirates were Dem
ocrats, we will quote from an Admiral of
tho Pirate Navy, beuimcs says:
have been a Democrat all my life before
the war, during the war, aud since the
war and fought the war on the pnuciples
of Democracy.'
Many millions more had to be expend
ed to drive back armies of Democrats,' led

In his speech at the union meeting,
iNaahvillc, in Jne, 1804, Governor An
drew Johnson said :
Why all this carnage and desolation :
It was that treason might be put down,
and traitors punished. Therefore, I say
that traitors should take a back seat in
the work of restoration. If there be bit
five thousand men iu Tennessee loyal to
the Constitution, loyal to freedom, loyal
to justice, those true and faithful men
should control the work of reorganiza
tion and reformation absolutely. I say
that the traitor has ceased to be a cit
izen, and, in joining the rebellion, has
become a public enemy, lie forfeited
his right to vote with loyal men when he
renounced his citizenship, and sought to
destroy our Government.
This was very sound at the time it was
spoken, but eveuts seem to show that it
was sound, and nothing more. The way
traitors took back seats at tho Deniocrate
Convention was shown by the Committee
on the Platform adoptiog Wade Hamp
ton's plank, that all "the reconstruction
acts of Congress are unconstitutional,
null, and void " We rather think that
is riven traitors seats with vtrv hiah
backs to them.

The only Radical Obstacle.
Wrere there no laws. Democracy would
be everywhere triumphant. From Maine
to the Gult, in every State of the Luiou,
they conduct this canvass, basingall the'r
hopes of a victory upon the evasion o
the defiance of some existing law. At
the North, their game rests upon natura
lization frauds and illegal colonizations ;
at the South, they shoot Union men and
hang sheriffs as disturbers of the peace
In Missouri, West Virginia and all other
States where a loyal registration is re
quired, they bully the official boards, and
openly threaten to disregard their autho
rity. Time was when a more respectable
Democracy fought its battles and won its
victorias within the pale of the law itself;

The greenback dodge, with which the
Democrats started the Presidential cam

4i0ae Currency."
The Republicans as fast a3 possilla
propose to make greenbacks equal to gold.
when it win make no diflerence which,
the bonds are paid in. If the Republican
party can ever bo relieved of the necessi-
ty or incurring heavy expenditures to
keep in subordination the tendencies of
Democracy to anarchy, greenbacks and
gold will speedily approximate in va!u9
and the whole financial problem will bo
solved, without injustice cither to the
taxpayer or the bondholder, for both will
be paid in the same currency. The Al
bany Journal thus eptgrammatically sets
forth the dulerence between the Demo
cratic and Republican "one currency."

is GOLD.

the attempt to overthrow the State Gov
ernments established by Congress, by
force of arms. But, no one at the South,
nor at the North, nor even Frsnk Blair,
talks of or threatens war in case Grant is
elected President. They understand very
well that his election mcaus peace, pros
perity, and fair and impartial dealing to
all parta of the country. Who wants
war? Then vote for Seymour and furco
it upon the country, turn all the horrors
loose, and gloat the iufernal spirit that
produces it with human blood. Do you.

Grant and yoo will have it, the Democrats

A War. or Races Then let us pre
pare for it. We sound O o uote of warn
mg to the people, and bid them he)n the
alert. Prepnrations may be preventive ;
but, if in spite of preporations, the con
flict be precipitated upon us, it can l.aro
but one conclusion. The negro element
in the South is like a gangrene upon tho
body politic, and the first drop of blood
j-hed in a servile war will be the signal

the sooner ended. Our white allies it?
Maryland and Ncnrueky, not to mention?
the States further North, may bo relied
on for assistance, if we need it. Jiich--mcnixaj7iiner.
