THE CE EHONIES OF YESTERDAY IN
THE STATE CAPITAL
A Day of Fasimg and Prayer desecrated be a Cleri-
cal avowal of ?4•eaaon
The Proclamation of President Lincoln ap
pointing yesterday, Thursday, September 26,
as a day of fasting and prayer, was observed
with commendable unanimity and respect by the
people of the state capital. The houses of busi
ness were almost entirely closed, the different
churches all well attended by their congregations
and the strangers sojourning in our midst,
while the streets and avenues of the city wore
all the appearance and decorum of a Sabbath
day. After the ceremonies and worship of the
solemn occasior had been ended, the great
topic of conversation was in reference to a lec
ture delivered in the new school Presbyterian
church, by the senior pastor in charge, Rev. Dr.
William R. DeWitt. Our information in regard
to the sentiments of this last effort of the
scholarly, Christian and charitable Doctor, is de
rived from those who were present, heard and Were
disgusted with its coarseness, and who are all men
of the highest character for probity and patriot
ism. Dr. DeWitt started in his lecture by a refer
ence to the occasion which had convened the con
gregation, the fearful and sanguinary struggle
in which we were involved, and then in the
calmest and most deliberate manner, proclaimed
from his lofty and sacred position, that the
NORTH HAD VIOLATED THEIR COVE:
HANTS WITH THE SOUTH, AND WIRE RES
PONSIBLE AND ANSWERABLE FOR THE CRISIS WITH
war& THE COUNTRY WAS CONVULSED 1 " These'
expressions, published from a pulpit sustained
by the loyal love and Christian liberality of some
of the very best people in the Union , produced,
as they deserved, the most intense excitement,
and at once tore the veil from the face of a
hypocrite, and left him standing in the full gaze
of his congregation in all his hoary deceit and"
treachery. It proved that the people of Harris
"burg had been nursing a traitor on the very
.porch of their altar of religion that our
young men were in danger of being tainted with
.hia, consels, that our maidens might become
polluted by his touch, and that religion and pa
triotban, truth and honor were all in jeapordy
by the recognition and encouragement of men
who had, so little regard for alior either of them.
Rev. Robinson, who is the junior pastor In
charge, followed Dr. DeWitt, prefacing.his re
ligious discourse with an emphatic declaration
of difference with all that Dr. DeWitthad before
uttered, and administering, in the judgment of
his hearers, a well timed and withering re
buke' to the canting treason of his senior asso
ciate. He then proceeded to the delivery of a
most eloquent and impressive sermon, during
.the course of which he healed the wound inflicted
• by the coarieneSs of Dr. DeWitt, -and revived
the Christian sentiments and sympathies Of
-the Congregation, so grossly shocked and Out
raged by the treason doctrine and flagrant false
h'oods previously proclaimed.
Rev. Di. William R. DeWitt is an old citizen
4tf tills city. He has been pastor of the Presby
terian Phnroh since 1818, coming here a poor
man, and in that time amassing a large fortune,
which he has scrupulously invested in other
states and cities, because it would return him
more money to swell his already overflowing
Coffers. 'He has always been known as a par
tizan Of the pro-slavery passions; defending the
principles and the effects of the institution as
the only ameliorating benefits which the heatheh
'bittelt man deserved. But it was presumed that
6 the " exPerience of a few months had changed lus'
opinions, and that in common with all good
AititsAne and Christian gentlemen, he had seen
„in ;tile rebellion of the slavq-holder the pollu
tion. and desperate iniquities of which the insti
tution was capable. It was thought at least
that h 8 would suppress his preference and senti
merits for , the corruptions of slavery in respect
for the purity of religion:and the patriotism. of
his fellow citizens. But in this, as in many
'other respects, the good people of Harridburg,
and particularly 'of the Presbyterian Church,
Dave been disappointed, and now ...live to pity
and despise the authOr of their deception.
Dr. DeWitt holds a respectable position under
the state government, for the services of which
,he receives $l,OOO per annum. He has a son
...filling the position of a consulate of the goverist-'
in a foreign post,- who was appointed by
President Duchanan because of his violent parti

Library. The Secretary of War and Gov. Curtin
must decide this question, and to their adjudi
cation, in the - name of all loyal and Christian
men, women and children, we refer the matter,
confident of the truth of our assertion when we
declare that William R. DeWitt has subjected
himself to the charge of treason by preaching
fidsehood and slander against his government in
the hour of its , peril from the pulpit of a respect
able Christian church in the state capital of
loyal old Pennsylvania.
OUR NEW ALLIES-LOOK OUT FOR OLD
We are among those who believe that the
prizidples which the Republican party pro
claimed at the last Presidential election, con
stitute the only basis upon which this great
government can progress, develop its resources,
and do justice to the free white men engaged in
every branch of badness in this country. For
fifty years the germ of those principles have
been in existence, to animate all the great lead
ers who were opposed to the Democratic or
Locofoco party. It was the same policy since
matured and now constituting the force of a
Republican organization, which made the great
Clay so powerful in his day—which rendered
Webster so profound, and which alsoheld to
gether the Whig party through years of defeat
and vain opposition to Democratic corruption.
Those great principles never changed, and the
organization which upheld and defended them
never changed either, save in the name of the
Whig party, which gave up its title to be
buried with its old and immortal leaders, and
which assumed its present name and organiza
tion, without thus _ crifice of a single portion of
that great policy which aims at the complete
elevation of labor and the administration of this
government upon laws of equal and exact jus
tice. After these years of struggle, and when
the Republican party finds itself in possession of
the government, the very men who have here
tofore opposed that organization, find them
selves suddenly dispossessed of power, and as
summarily deprived of patronage. In this con
dition they clamor now that party lines should
be abolished only where they have no hope of
success without such a destruction of
party distinctions, while in localities
where the old dough -face school of Demo
cracy prevails, the same leaders reject all
proffers of compr,omise or union, by arrogantly
asserting that they cannot affiliate with "Black-
Republicanism." This guise bas been carried on
so successfully, that the men who, at the com
mencement of the rebellion at the south, op
posed all efforts to suppress its leaders as an act
'of coercion not justified by the Constitution or
laws, are now sanguine of carrying a majority
in the legislature of the state, and with this
power in their, hands, partially pave the way
for compromising again with the slave oligarchy
and again repose the power and patronage of
the federal government in their hands. This
they will do, if a majority of the. Democratic
leaders succeed in getting possession of the leg
islature, and therefore we must warn our friends
in time to be on their guard. We can at least
warn those of our own and of the surrounding
counties of Dauphin, -not to suffer the common
enemy to deceive them with a common trick.
The cry of Union is a false appeal to the patriot
ism of men by those- who estimate that Union
Reef no value compared with the success of their
own achernee, ; and in this instance the success
w hi c h resin aim at is the destruction-of
the Republican party that the minions of slavery
may again rule in the government, at the ex
pense of its economy and the dignity and pros
perity of every free white man in its citizenship.
While a few honest men are earnestly labor
ing to purify what they deem the corruptions
of politics, the old hypocrites and party hacks of
Democracy, such as those who made a pretext
of the ambition of John C. Breckinridge to stab
the country inns moat vital parts, are using the
efforts of these honest men to push themselves
into power, and if •possible once more invigorate
their old organization, clothe it with power by
compromising with and making allies of rebels,
and thus insure the final triumph of co-ercive
'Ahern= in the administration of this govern
ment. We consider that the defeat of the Re
publican party would,les equally as fatal-to this
government at this time, as the defeat of the
federal force now encamped around the federal
capital. It .is what the rebels require, what
they demand as the forerunner of that com
promisewith which they.hope to escape the re
sponsibilities, punishments and burdens of their
treason. They rebelled because the Republican
party- elected- a President. They sought the
destruction of the Union because the free white
men of the free states declared their ability , and
determination to - rule, and 'now they only.ask
that this determination be rebuked and these
men humiliated..by defeating 'the Republican
party. And to accomp ` this purpose the
wily old leaders of dough-faceism in the north
have been crying for compromise, the oblitera
tion of party lines, theAliation of all parties,
only that a portion of their own number could
gain seat: in the halls of beca use
without this union and affiliation on a common
platform, • such an object would be hope
less. if the Democratic party, or that
portion of it which supported Breck
inridge and still sympathize with the
rebels, were certain that they could elect an
entire peace, compromise or anti-administration
ticket, they would spit into the face of any Re
publican who might offer a union, and spurn
him from their presence as a sycophant and a
fool if theist, badarien succeed in, gaining
,power, their success will not be attributed to
the devotion of the people to the' Constitution
and trtdon, but to the`differences of those same '
people with our state and national administra
tions. This is their game, this is their purpose,
this is their great object, first to overthrow and
demoralie',the Republican party or are . ; other
organisation in favor of pushing this struggl e
with rebellion to a stem - and decisive conclm'
anon, and then once more welcoma - bscii th

excesses which have characterized every na
tional mindttistration in which the advocates
of slavery had a voice or wielded power.
While we are making compromises to satisfy
old partizan leaders, let us be certain that we
are satisfying the masses and promoting the
prospects and weal of the corintry.. The prin
ciples and issues upon which Curtin and Lincoln
were elected are either purely correct or they
are corruptly wrong. If they are wrong, then
we should compromise on some better policy,
and Curtin and Lincoln should both resign.—
But if they are right—if they contain the spirit
and the justice of our laws, we would be alike
false to patriotism and honor to give them up
merely to serve the temerity of the hour or obey
the mandates of demagogues and traitors.
We ask every man who loves his country to
ponder these facts before he permits pimself to
be, deluded by. the hypocrisy of a few desperate
old political. hacks seeking power.
TBE PACIFIC TELEGRAPH.
Without one-hundreth part of the fuss which
preceded and accompanied the laying of the
great Atlantic Cable, which, lasted for two
hours—a cognate enterprise' of four times the
importance is going on rapidly and to comple
tion. In fact so very quietly is it being done,
that even our own people are scarcely aware
how fast the wires of the Pacific Telegraph are
stretching across the continent. If no uafor
seen accident happens, the western -half of the
line, between San Francisco and Salt lake City
will be in working order before the snow falls
in such quantities as to prevent operations. On
the eastein side, the line is already up, to the
head of the Great American Desert, nearly
three hundred miles west of Fort Kearney ; and
there are strong hopes that the whole line will
be in working order frbm the Atlantic to the
Pacific, by the sth of December next.
It is impossible to over-estimate the import
ance, socially, politically and commercially, of
this great link between the two slopes ; and it
is no matter of wonder that the Californians
are waiting impatiently for the first flash over
the wires, while we aimed forget - the enterprise.
The Pacific Railroad must soon follow, and then
indeed will California be bound to her Eastern
mother by links that even rebellion will be slow
to break.

newspaper editors and proprietors, who are
constantly prating about their patriotism, puri
ty and attachment to the administration of
Abraham Lincoln, proved the possession and
practice of little or none of either, when their
love of gain, which they call enterprise, detered
them from paying a proper respect to , the Presi
dent's proclamation appointing a'day of fasting
and prayer, and the suspension of business,
that the people, might observe the (=Won.—
Not a single one of these dailies_ suspended la

of presses were not for a moment suspended, as
if salvation depended upon the issue of all these

serve;th:i fasting and •prayer occasion appointed
by the,President, one of the meanest insults yet
offered to the administration, while it is the
evidence of a lust, tyranny and selfishness pecu

Tama Tax Gm-80/a 'lsm—We copy the
following interesting account of experimenta on
the ironsheatimg of the gun-boats, from the St.
Louis Democrat of Saturday.: _
"Gayjord, Son & Co., by their agent, Wm.
Colcord, took the contract to make and
deliver -itt this city Seven—hundred tons
of sheeting iron for the gtm-boata, to be
in plates is inches •_wide, and of var
ious lengths, from 3,1 feet to 11 feet long,
and 2i- inches thick. The first shipment was re
ceived here in the required time, and it being de
sirable to ascertain theyesisting power of this
iron against artillery projectiles ' it was, di3ter
mined by Capt. Rogers and Major Merritt, Chief
Engineer of the machinery to try the
force of rifled cannon shot upon it. For this
purpose twe of the most powerful rifle
guns, under the superintendence of Lietd.
Buffington, of the Arsenal, were conveyed
over the river, opposite the Carondelet
docks, on the Illinois side. Here, on the
sandy beach, a range of about three miles for
the balls to fly was obtained. The iron plates
the experiment were placed and firmly bolted
to oak blocks about sixteen inches „thick, and
stationed in a firm position at an angle of forty
five degrees, and inclination the same as. the
gun-boats.
Lieut. Buffington placed his guns at the range.
of eight hundred yards. The target was, so
small for so great a distance, that it was quite
difficult to see it, but by the aid of a spy-glass
some good shots were made.' A Parrot rifled.
gun was used. The first ball -struck the iron
under one of the bolts, tearing it out without
injury to the iron, only making its mark in a
raking way. The next shot that hit the iron,
ivaa fired at distance of five hundred yards.__
This made a'atry decided mark, indenting the
iron one inch. The next shot at five hundred
yards hit fair, and also made a dent about one
inch deep, starting all the bolts. Next they
came up to three hundred Ards distance,
and the effect on the iron was the same
each time, a deep indentation being made but
not a crack or sign of breaking. Now the
party said they would see if a ball could be put
through, so the iron target was set up straight,
or a little leaning towards the gun, which was
placed only one hundred yards. All said it
must go through. The ball hit fair in the cen
tre, knocking the target around out of its plaaa,
and shattering the ball m a thousand fragments,
mony pieces flying back to =the gun. It was
now determined unsafe to try it at a shorter
range. It being derided by Captain Rodgers
and all hands present that the iron resisted be
yond all expectations, and proved to be of a
very superior quality, we gave it up that we
could not put a ball through it, and it was pro
nounced perfectly satisfactory,
Trials of iron have been made in England on
from four to ten inch plates, and balls have
penetrated through, but it must be remember
ed that the English. iron mostly, if not all of
it, is "stonecoal iron," while the iron now used
for.the gun boats building by Captain James B.
Fads' is of the very best American "chaicoal

the citizens Of western Missouri, in which, after
saying for_what purpose he is there, and urging

"Should you, however, disregard my ad
vice, the stern visitations of war , shall be meted
to rebels and thier allies. I shall then be con
•vinaed that your arming `for protection' is a
sham ; and rest assured, that traitors, when
caught, shall receive a traitor's doom. The
cup of "mercy has been exhausted—treason,
hereafter, will be treated as treason. The mas
sacre of innocent women and children by the
black-hearted traitors who latel burned the

us that a traitor will perpetrate- crime which
