Longaker, Secretary, Norristown, Pa. A Patriotic and Sensible PaEAcn eu. Wo havo reoeived a letter onbubi. ness,n few days ago, from a highlj ro speciablo Minister, and pattor of-achargo in a certain portion of this county, from which wo make the following extracts : "I would very much liko to have your paper, x-omicaiiy, your sentiments aro my own. I always havo, and hopo I al ways may dvocato Democratic measures and principles. If a minister has noxight to preach politics, ho certainly has a right, at timss to think polities. Ho must keep pace with the times. Tho Demoeratiopatty can and must savo tho country. So yon think and eo do I think." Wo publish tho abovo extracts to show that ministers aro not all fanatics. Wo aro opposed to introducing politics into the pulpit in any shapo or form, but if fan atical preachers of the Beech and Cheever School will not ceasa preaching political heresies from the pulpit, it might result in good, for right-rininded and conservative ministers occasionally to give tho people the benefit of their vieTva on political ques tions, in order to counteract Ihe effect of tho teachings of these misguided zealots. General McGlellan. Tho presi dent has exhibited his good sense and firmness of character by reinstating Gen eral George B. MoClcllan in command of tho army of Vdreinia. No wonder that : Mr. Lincoln has coma to the conclusion that such braggadooia Generals as Pope do not suit to contend against tho able strate gists who commanded tho robel army in Virginia. If the plans of General Mo- Clellan had not been interfered with, Riohmond would long.ero this havo been in our possession, and the rebel armv dnven from tho soil of tho Old Domin ion. As it is, wo aro inoalculabl v worse off than when tho orazy clamor against him fisrt began to gather force and strength. That ho will again bo equal to tho occa sion wo have not a doubt ; but the diffi culties which now surround him would bo sufficient to crush any other man cot possosscd of tho coolness, intcligcnoo and profound military eagaoity whioh he has exhibited all through this terrible war. Tho restoration of General MoClellan to tho command is a bitter pill to tho Ab olitionists in this vicinity, who havo, all along, been denouncing him as an imbe. cial and a coward, and somo of them had tho audacity to go a step farther in their malignity and .charge him with being a traitor.' They aro dumbfounded at tho action of tho President, and curses, not loud but deep, aro utterod against the Chief Mrgistrats himself. Fublp's Resignation Accepted. A special correspondent of tho New York Herald says, the resignation of Gen. Phelps was accepted immediately on its receipt, and that it was tho intention of tho Gov ernment to havo rcealled him, had he not resigned' The promptness with whioh tho Presi dent deals justioo to such men as Phelps, whose visionary crochets about negro bri gades keops tho country in an uproar of excitement, ia calculated to inspiro confi denco In bra wisdom and discretion. It would scom as though tho examples already made of offioora troubled with negropho bia would bo enough .to dotor others from following in their wako. But tho irre pressiblo desire for notoriety, and the longings for popular applause, which haunts tho minds of small men, may yet add to tho nnmbor of victims immolated at the shrine of a selfish ambition. Who will be the next marjsr T Editors Looking Up t Barr, tho fearless and talented editor of tho Pittsburg Post, is defined to bo tho next Surveyor General of tho State 5 and that glorious fellow, Col. Aluxandkr, of tho Clarion Democrat, and that oshcr good fellow, John A. Maqee, of tho Perry Democrat, nro tho unanimous choieo of tho Domooracy of their joipectivo counties for tho Assembly, and both will bo elected beyond a doubt tho first by an overwhelm ming majority. Wo tako it for granted that our old friends, Col. Tate, of tit? Bloomsburg Democrat, and Nieman, of the Easton Sentinel, who bo nobly stood up for tho right in tho last Legislature, will bo again rcturnod as representatives from Co lumbia and Northampton counties ; and, if so, wo can guarantco that tho Common wealth will suffer no detriment at their hands. Thero may be others of tho corns editorial in tho lino of promotion, bat wo cannot just think of them. If there nro such, so much tho bettor, as tho destinies of Pennsylvania oould not bo entrusted to safer bands. Lancaster Intelligencer. All right, Mayor Sanderson, excepting wo were not a candidate. McOlellan. The Louisville Journal (Prentico's pa per) has the following on tho subject of MoCIellan's recent ro-instatcment in tho command of our forces : "Tho appointment of General MoClellan to tho command of tho army of Virginia is, under all tho circumstances, a glorious vindication of tho most gifted and accom plished soldier. It needed not tho accla mation of tho army, with tho cohoingplau dits of tho nation, to round off its glory ; yet these it has. ('Now that, in spito of 4he calumny of zealots and ot too railing of madcaps and charlatans, tho first soldier of tho oountry, if not tho first soldior ofiho world, is onco more at tho head of tho army, the nation may well broatho freer. Tho change is not only a guaranteo of safety, but a presage of victory. In tho mingled joy and peril of tho hour, we will not stop to inauiro why General MoClellan ever ceasod for a moment to bo at tho head of our forces in Virginia, or how many of our mischances in that field have arisen from his retire ment ; it is enough for tho present to know that ho is again in tho station which bo longs to him by tho sovereign claims of genius and of .character, and that ho re assumes it amidst tao joint applause of tho army and the nation. "Vo believe there hove been in tho re cent fighting no blunders that ho cannot redeem no reverses tihatho will notspeo dily turn back in a tido tf 'triumph, Such, assuredly, is oux Cervent prayer." B Among tho eominatians ondo by the ''people's Party" in tho city ot Phila delphia, for tho noxt Legislature, we ob servo tho name of Alexander Ouramings. 1 Wo presume that this ia tho idcnticial Alexander Cumminga who purchased cod fish, red herring, bottlo porter, linen pan taloons, and straw hats for tho army, and whoso evidence in rolation thereto occu- pics many pages in tho report of tho Van I vvyen Uointnttteo. Of coureo Alexander is a very loyal wan, has tho most implicit I confideuco in tho Administration, and. thoroughly detests all traitors and secois-1 ion sympathisers. Of courso all tho loyal voters in his district will rally to his sup - port, and testify bv their exertions in his behalf how highly thoy appreciate that noblest work of God, nn honest Ulan I So riously speaking, aro not tho Republicans of Philadelphia running it into tho ground ! Are ihej not unconsciously exhibiting to the world their utter abasement bv this endorsement .of a man whoso record is be fouled with tho worst of crimes publio peculation ? And ore they not outroging publio opinion by thrusting this fetid mass of codfish and red herring undex the noses ofthohonost citizens of Philadelphia? If, Alexander Cummings can bo elected to soat in tho Legislature at a timo when wisdom and integrity aro most needed in our publio councils, God save the Common wealth, for rain ii tho hope in manl "Tub Monitoe."

Popo, it is now officially announ cod, has been reliovcd of his command of tho Army of Virginia and boon sont to the North-wost, whoro ho will havo chargo of tho troops now operating against tho sav ages who wcro rocontly engaged in slaugh tering the peoplo of Northern Minnesota. Tho fitness of this uow field of opera tions for Gen. Popo will bo very generally conceded. Ho will thero find foomon not only worthy of his steel, but adepts in his own peculiar stylo or warfare. Tho Indi ans nover trouble thamsolvca about ''baies of aupplios'' or ,( lines trrctreat" and tho country thoy mako war on must support them. They agreo also with Gen. Pope, Secretary Stanton, and tho radicals in scorning a "rose water" or "kid glovo" stylo of conducting a war. A "stern pol icy" is thoir delight, and henoo they rob and murder all non combatants on tbeir lino of maroh, which, it will bo remember ed, was tho very spirit of Popo'a famous orders in Central Virginia. General Hal leek, however, out of an absurd defenoo to tho Christianity and civilization of tho age, did not permit General Popo to mako uso of tho Sioux and Choctaw style of oondao ting a war, and then the enemy in a inoit unhandsome manner got in his rear overy timo after his advertisement that he did not want them 0 see his baok." Theso savages also havo a very profound contempt for "strategy they belieto in the spirit, not of tho Lord, but of tho whiskey bottlo, and when under its influ ence "move at onco upon the enemy's works." Tho parallel might bo carried much farthor, but this will suffice. The country may well rojoico if tho Sioux meth od of conducting a war adopted by tho radicals, proolaimed by Secretary Stanton, and put in execution by Popo be carried to tho wilds of the North west.

McOlollan has won respect for liis character from all thinking men by spocch whioh has been silver, but more by silonco which has boon golden. Almost from "On to Richmond" days till now ho has been the target of unscrupulous assault. Politi cal hostility and personal malevolonco havo discharged all their weapons. His mili tary abilities havh been bolittlcd by his enemies more than thoy havo been over rated by his friends. Tho good uso which he has mado of tho spado to counterbalance tho enomy's odds in muskets only earned for hjin from them the epithet of "Ditch er." Because he did not uso as a hospital tho White House, which was put to othor and bettor eervico, ho was accused with collusion with traitors. Hs long roccived and put to work all tho negroes which camo to his lines, yet was always accused of excluding (hem. His plans were thwar ted by tho intrigues of his enemies at Washington, yet ho was mado responsible for tho failures thus caused. Ho never underrated tho powor of the enemy, yet it has required tho bitter lessons of a twelve month to convince tho radicals that ho was right, and during all that time the delay of preparatibn or of caution has been do nouncod as tho delay of cowardice or im becility, (lis army was divided, yet he did not complain. His request for per mission to attack Richmond ju;t before ho was ordorcd to leave tha peninsula was re fused, and apparently his last opportunity of vindication denied him, yet ho yielded without an open murmur. His army was withdrawn from under bia command and given to another who has raoro than deci mated it, and left all things worso than they were a. twolvo month ago, yet ho did not resign. Indeed it is said that tho oth er day, when Lis coinmaud was but a mere handful of men, ho told the Prosident that ho would do his duty faithfully with that handfal, and if thoso were withdrawn, or his resignation desired, he would give it gladly, but would then shoulder a musket and onlist in the ranks, since .ho had en tered for tho war and would not leave it till it was ended. Though virtually deprived of a command, ho did not ask to be ro lieved, but accepted tho inferior service as signed by him, went about his business, and with tho instinotofa soldier and tho self respect of a strong and noblo charac ter, at all times and under all provocations still kept perfect silence. Not ono word of complaint, or explanation, or solf-exculpa tion, or denial, or defenso has ever passod his lips or his pen. Nor has any ono been authorized to speak suob word for him. His apparent silenoa which would havo been shrewd, has been a real silence which was wise. Political campaigns, by the bitterness and misrepresentations which accompany our heated discussions, rarely fail to call out thecandidates for.ofaco in self defenso. Bitterness and misrepresentation have been exhausted upon Gen. MoClellan, but ho has gone about bis business and wasted no time in anticipating the justice of his tory. This is the moro remarkablo, for though politicians and publio men, accua tomod to abuse, in timo learn to cover their sensibilities wilh an opidermis as thick as the hide of a rhinoceros, Gen. MoUlellan, olways in private life, never can havo acquired by sucli means such in difference. His silenco is rather to be at ifcribtited to tho-cool decision and firmness, of a well-balanced character. It sDoaks ft,. t . ... iu iiiui, uowuvar, as no tongue could do. If with his guns ho will now silenoo the thunder of tho rebel, as by his reticence he has silenced detraction at home, tho .tongues of tho people and pens of histori ans will leave nothing unsaid of him that can be compassed by speech. N. Y, World, Prophecy Fulfilled. "if these in- fornal fanatics and Abolitionists ever get power in their hands," eaid the groat Web ster, on a memorable occasion, "they will ovexrido tho Constiiution, set the supreme Court at defiance,. ohango and mako laws to suit themselves, lay violent hands on thoso who differ with thom in their opion, or dare question their infalliability, and finally bankrupt tho oountry, or deluge it with blood." Millions cf luoh warnings, says a cotcmporary, were impotent to stay tho tido of abolition fanaticism. It reach ed power, and in a few short months tho most of this prophooy is already fulfilled. To savo the country from further calami ties let the people unile to put down the nuthox of them all abolition. Providence Post. The Distance.

( Tlio Stamp Aot A now era in tho commercial and busi ness affairs of this county, will commonoo on tho first of next month, that being tho time fixed by law for tho commencement of that portion of tho United States tax law, relating to Stamp dutios. "On and after tho 1st of Octobor, thero shall be levied, collocted and paid," reads tho act 'Stamp duties, therein specified, on all agreements, contracts, cheoka, drafts, bills of exchange, conveyances, deeds, mortga ges, leases, contracts for biro or uso of land, powers of attornoy, wore houso re ceipts, legal doeamonts, writs, tummousos, Ad &o., excepting those issued by Justioos of the Peace, and in criminal suits." This is a mode of taxation entirely new to tho'peoplo of this country. Tho attempt by England to impose what is known as tho "Stamp aot" upon tho colonies, just previous to tho breaking out of tho Revo lution in 1770, was determinedly resisted by them, and was ono of the prime causes of separation from tho mother country. After the lapse of nearly a century, this, ono of tho most odious of all methods of raising revenue, is to bo rcstoisd, to remain, a oheck, and trammel upon the commercial prosperity of tho anglo Amer ican race, in all probability, for a longer period thau thoy havo been free from that incubus. To a peoplo so long accustomed, as ours havo been, to free and untrammelod commercial intercourse, this restriction will at all times, seem burthensome and oppressive; its adoption with all classes, and especially tho plain farmers of our country at first, will no doubt bo difficulty by reason of its novelty. That a man cannot rent a room iu his house, or a cabbage patch upon his farm, to a neigh bor without having the contractor mem orandum of it, upon stamped paper, at a cost of & half dollar or dollar, as tho case may bo, will indeed seem strange to raauy. That such instrument if written on un- stamped paper, will be absolutely void, aod subject tho persons making it, to lo ivy . . ... , .1 if not unjust. That an agreement to pay for, or return a bushel of corn, borrowed or bought, by a man of his neighbor, has also to be on stamped paper, and will, if written on any other, bo such an offence as will subject tho maker to a fino of filty dollars, will, to many, seem to bo an in- friu.cmont of the natural right of man Iu the courso of It me, when our people all nil havo become accustomed to the workings of this law, familiar wilh its de tails, and unurcd to its burthens, tho "Stamp act," once so odioui to our fathers may ho looked upon by their posterity, as a necessary and proper method of raising revenuo for the support of the Govern ment, and the payment of its debts It ii to bo hoped, however thoy will al- ways romembor the party whoso policy made it necossary ; and who were tho first , -. J' , , , , to impose :t upon a peop e, who, but fori that party and its policy mignt havo lived on tn unintcrupted proiperity, and in bless- 1 fulignoranca of tho practioal workvncsofj a "stamp act" for ancs vet to came. Forth Bramh Dtinocrot, The Statb Prisoners. The case of Ira Davenpnrt, E. B. Ohaso and George B. Kulp, as wo stated iu our last, oame up before his honor Judgo Conyngham on Wedaesday laal on a writ oihapeascor. pus, Mr. Rieketts, Chief of Police, made as his return .that thoy woro arrested and hold in custody on tho authority of th War Department, for "discouraging en listment and disloyal practices," and further presented itoiheourt a telegraph io dispatch from Mr. Turner, Judgo Ad voeate, stating that tho writ of habeas cor. pus had been suspendod. No accusor ap pcarod and no specifio charges were made, beyond tho general accusatitn above sta ted. Judgo Conyngham then, after a brief argument by Lyman Hakes, Stanley Woodward and C. E, Wright, Escjrs., on behalf ofthe prisoners, decided that he had no further jurisd'etion in tho matter undex the. circumstances, and accordingly dismissed tho proceedings. This argu ment of tho .counsel, especially that of Mr. Hakes, was a most able vindication ofthe rights of the citizens, in tho courso of which he presented some strong facts to show the habeas corpus was not constitutionally suspended in Pennsylvania.
