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

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."

Gen. Popo iu a Now Coinmaud.
Gen. 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.

General Mctlellnu's filleiico.
Gen. 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.

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

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.
Theso prisoners aro still in tho custody
of Sheriff Van Loon.
