The “Tioga Invincibles,” accompanied by

Wednesday night last, at about.-lil o’clock,

ning volunteers for the Government service,
ft Wellsboro at about 2 o’clock on the 24tb;
lid the greatest enthusiasm that, place has
er konwn. The streets were completely orow
d with men, women and children, from the
aoo of starting on the Court HouseiSquare, to
e terminus of main street. The sad partings,
e tears, the smiles, nnd the “God bless yon,”
3re indeed affecting, and not one present will
rget it, should ho live a thousand years. The
y was one of general sadness in B ellsboro,
it to the true lover of his country, it was one
be remembered, with feelings of pride. The
rrow which seemed to prevail so generally
the crowd, was soon, dispelled from the
rops, and the scene changed to one of mbrri
cnt. From Wellsboro to this place, ail along
e line, small crowds would cheer us,'and the
luriteers would reply with pleasantries to tlreir
od wishes. At Covington- we met a large
owd. Hern we, took supper, and with the
eers of the, imn;ense assemblage passed on.
orbing worthy of noth occurred on the route,
itil within about a mile of town, when the
Idiers were ordered to get out of the Wagons
id and march into town,Ted by the
e.llsbor.o Brass; Band, We proceeded to

THE GHXSI3.
[When it became author!lately known that
war hud been inaugurated by the rebels at
Char!(astbn r thfc military spirit of our people
was thoroughly aroused. On' the Sabbath fol
lowing, thb ministers of all our churches
preached patriotic sermons. The following is
a synopsis of the sermon of Prof. Landreth of
the M. E. Church. lie selected his text from
2d Sami., lOlli chapt.; and 12tli verse: ‘Be of
good courage, and let us play the men for our
people, ami for the cities of our Chid, and the
Lord do that Which Secmelli him good.”—Ed;
rAo.]
We are-assured that one great tiim of the
gospel, is to secure the universal. reign .of. har
mony and benevolence among men. The God
of peace has imposed binding obligations on all
men to cultivate a pacific spirit towards one
another, both as individuals, and, as nations.
It is required of us by our holy religion to "fol
low peace with all -men.” , ‘ Blessed are the
peace-makers,” hut when greedy ambition and
sordid avarice, impel men to sacriSne principle,
lo passions ; when the .spirit of misrule strikes
at onr liberties oi men and citizens, an I opens.
the flood-gates of an»r
peace-loving people. 1
pel demand pf us ? 5]
Peace with rebels?
erty, liberty arid life! Peace, .when, .we have
it in our power-to vint icate our rights, protect
bur liberties and perpej ante oui; free institutions?
At such d time, my brethren, the King of peace.
Himself calls'“to drifts/’and war becomes a
part of our religion, . and “cursed is he that
keepeth back bis awobi from blood.” ... s
The appropridfeness otVthe application of the
text to every citisenllof our-Republic at the
present crisis; requires no comment; It is a
direct appeal for our [country and our God.—
• Patriotism is inseperahly connected with Chris
tianity. It is wicked [for men to desci-iminate* 1
between duty nnd policy. Duty is ever the.tru,-
est policy. True indeed, she smnetihie calls the
martyr to the stake, and the patriot to the scaf
fold,while by the’ idje spectator their life is
pronounced a dead l[js3 to society, but each
drop of that life-bluodipmired out, becomes an
armed battalion for thfe vindication of the prin
ciple at Stake; So it ijras ih the great Reforma
tion—“the blood of the martyr, was the seed of
the church.” So it w|s in the American B. tlh
lution—the blood of (lur revolutionary fathers
was the cement which!boUndtngether the great
-arch-way of American Independence. So it
may be in the present crisis. Our liberties may
demand are-baptism ,)>f blood. - They cost our
fathers thousands of lives, and their perpetui
ty is worth thousands! more. Duty erics give
them. This generation may better give ’up
-every life in it; than that the rising generation
should he doomed to it slavocraey. . 1
The monarchies of .(he world-tire How watch
ing us with obarmed attention. Arc they an
ticipating the speedy !(u Hi timed t of the predio-.
thru.that “the repuh||ic of the United Sthtes
will prove an unsuccessful experiment ?”
Heaven forbid it. Tftere is danger; aumtinent,
immediate danger. Defection in our body pol
itic has broken out injjo bloody rebellion. Cor
ruption has rankled iij the heart of the nation,
until it has proved itsilf the perfidious Delilah
by which our Sampstm bos been shorn of his
strength. Our forts,jfirsenals-and mints, and
almustevery other element of our strength, have j
been bunded over to tjtaitor hands, to an organ- 1
iaed conspiracy of rltbollious States; and by j
those States, war is noli? opened upon the general |
government. At suclf a crisis, what does self
preservation, what dttjes humanity, what does
prudence, justice and! mercy dertiitnd of dst
Why, that tve with United, hearts and
determined hands to tjie rescue, and neyer let
go.until public peace & restored, our laws vin
dicated, the sanctioqj of authority
every rebel received iti's desert; St’ery traitor
swung in mid air, high as Ahasberus hoi.-qed
Human. Therefore “pet us play the air.n for :
people, and for th| cities of ollr G0d.”,., i
Compromises, I hat® become sick of: They
are but burlesques ore our- national faith, nor |
have I any more respqot for the false theories |
and baneful policy ofithe abettors and sytnpa- i
thisera with this rebellion against our govern
ment. What wo do. must be done quickly. It
is said “they are our brethren—be patient, he
foilhearing', don’t provoke them by resistance.”
Alas, they are our brethren, and who is not
ashamed of the connection? They are spoiled
children, petted and pj mpered so long that they i
have become insolentj reckless, dissolute, arm- 1
gant; and because a jguardian .has been duly l
ehOsetv and sworn ti exercise his authority |
over the entire fatnilyj according to the origin
al family compact, they flounce and aver they
will rend tuat old compact to pieces; and that
Washington must wjphm three months be
come the Capitol of it traitor confederacy tit
crush out the free'Spirit of ou'r republic, and
girt! to slavery tbe strongest lju.lriih’tco of its- 1
perpetuity. My brethren, tbis damning con
spiracy must be crt)sb|d, or it will cruslmis. It
bus groan defiant odi our supiueness. From
cowardice we bare nothing to fear, but from di
vision and irre>olutio(| tve have. Let all party
distinctions now be ffluried, for we cannot be '
men, much less Christians, if we suffer tbe great j
palladium of Constitution and.
our Union to be dostniVed by internal treachery i
and local passion, without a tremendous effort I
to save it. An essential accomplishment which '
the text enjoins, and 4hich tbe crisis demands i
of us, is courage. It.s a priceless quality of
every good soldier, not a fool-hardy inacnsibiliiy,|
of danger—nor a heat -strong rashness, to rush'
into it, but a calm, < elibsrate, resolute forth j
tude. This is true cyiirage. God has given to i
some men a larger portion of .it than to others. 1
In of the uvur jee, ambition and.tyn.nuy
of our rjioe, He has h rmed some with a martial i
spirit, and real love ol danger, that innocence !
should bit protected, public property and life sc- 1
cured, and our race preserved from universal
slavery. Such, a spirit when rightly directed, .
is ft general blessing tp our world. Such was j
a heavenly endowment in the father of our ,
country. Such a spirit i» found to-day at the
bead of our federal (poops; Heaven preserve
Gen. Scott. Such was tbe spirit of Major An- '
dersuh and bis command ; and may We not hope [
that there'ttro sparks of this true cbunige gl.w-1
ing in the breast of tboao w.orthy men who are
new rushing to our cion try’a rescue ? Our po
sition in the presfeht {'crisis, furpiahbs a strong
incentive to true courage. Our cause is a \
righteous cause. ' Gilfitfs always timid, tl is
with difficulty we pUrsoe a . wicked scheme
without hesitation and fearful apprehensions!
hence “the wicked flee when no than pursued!.”
The poet has couched the same sentiment in
other words.
“What stronger bcarthplaco than a heart untainted?
Thrice is he armed, that hath bis quarrel just;
And ha but naked, though locked up in steel,
Whose conscience with injustice is corrupted.’’
It is our duty in this crisis, to humbly ab
knowledge our dependence on God. We are to |
do the best we can, und yet all is oncertain to ,
us. It may be oho of His chiding providences ]
to our , nation, because, wo. have not broken
every man tbe yoke, and let the oppressed go’
free. Let us .unite iiiauppiiciuion before Him,
and let us remember ftlie'thousands who have
left their homes to their, country. May
the Lord of Hosts; the God .of the armies of
Israel, load them forth; Slay He teach their
hands to war, andgird-thefti with etrengtKJbr ,
uattiet May He renil’u them victorious to their
anxious families and friend*. i
