"To de Senate and Flows of spresentativer
of the United States,-in Cb demo:Wed :
The General Assembly of the nited Presby
terian Church, now in mai n in the oily of
.Pitteburgh, Pe. and the / Synod of the Re
formed Presbyterian Church, now in session
in the city of Allegheny, Pa., believing
that the bolding of /human': . •beings as
slaves is a min against the God of Heaven,
a manifest transgression of the law of
Rim who , came /to preach " deliverance
to the captives, arose violation of the rights
of man, utterly irreconcihible with the princi
ples of human liberty, destructive of the best
interests of the land, a foul blot upon the na
tional eecutalfeon, a prime cause of the exist
bag atrocioni rebelliou,and if continued,agure
provocative of further and greater judgments
of God upon the nation ' would earnestly ap
peali to e Congress of the United States
_to
adopt t once all the measures competent to it,
to a are the immediate emancipation of all
human beings noir held in oppressive
and degrading bondage in any art of this
labd, and so far as such an act of justice may
rival to avertibe just indignation of God most
nigh, and secure the United States from the
recurrence of any similar iniquitione assault
upon our national civilization and liberties."
SLAVERY AND: TEED LEBNLLION
Tho report of the Salcot Committee on the
State of the Country was presented and adopt
ed, It is as follow✓
"Our country is involved in deep and sore
trouble. God is pleading his controversy
with our nation, because of the oppressions
done in the land. Slavery has culminated in
acts of high-banded treason and open rebel
lion. Having trampled upon every principle
of right in the case of the slave, it has, at
the same time, eradicated the noble attributes
of humanity froMihe heart of As =p.017..
"For many, years have the bodies coms
ing the United Presbyterian Church b. Idly
maintained their Testimony against this
system of grievous oppression. It has now
become a destinotive principle of the United
Church. She refuses to fellowship slavehold- -
ars or the 'Matters of ..elavery. This Teatime
pony has, however, been disregarded by poli
ticians and legislators, and by many profess
ing the gospel. The friends of the oppressed
have been emhpelled to pass through fiery or
deals; yet, being defamed, they entreat. The
groans of millions have ascended to the Judge
,of the oppressed. Ohr Testimony bas been
'recorded on high. The tears of the opprees
ed, God has but into his bottle. Their cries
have been heara. The etorm has gathered.
. The bolts of destruction have= been - hurled
;abroad. Death in its Most terribli forms has
Entered into the windows of 'inany peaceful
babitaions . , and the land. is filled with mourn
ing, lamentation and' woe. -
" Theioremilts, too terrible to contemplate,
`we beliwie, have flosied from this System of
American Slavery, which is at warwith.every
„principle of right andjustiee. - .The Struggle,
which DOW convulses our country, is to main
tain Crinsitiatronal Liberty. -. '
• " To'give expression to the views of this
Assembly, we „recommend - the adoption of the
following resolutions:
,i - " t. That in the judgment of this Assam
bly,; this wicked rebellion, which imperils . the
existence of !the Government. which .sinc e to
found a Confederacy upon the ruitusbf crush- .
ed humanity, mid which brutally assassinates
and murders our fellOw-eitisens, is pre-etai
!neatly the result of the practical workings of
Arrierican Slaiery. -
.
'. "2: That the title remedy for the evils
which now surround tts,and threaten our na-
Aloha, existence, lies in turning to the living
God, acknowledging. the sovereignty of Him
who rules in the stairs of men ; anti in com
plying with the -demands of Ills law. which
requires that • liberty be proclaimed through
otic all the land, to all the inhabitants there
of,'=--;-! then shall our: light break forth as the
morning, and our health shall spring forth ,
speedily.' • •
-
"That this Assembly hai an abiding confi
dence in the National Government; bids. it
God speed in suppressing this rebellion; and
we ; pledge ourselves , to its support in main
tainingthe principles of civil andd, religions
liberty„by all scriptural means. '
"4.. That &copy of \this paper be transmit
ted-to the• President . and- Goads el" Depart-
Monts, to assore,them of our sympathy and
co-operation, and to , urge upon them the ne
cessity of taking ifiimediate and effective
measures to remove the cancel of our national
troubles, that we may . be restored to the favor
Of God." - : .. - . ,

Lectures on thei History of the Easiern Church.
With an Introduction en the Study of Eccleeies-
Heal Ells•ory., By Arthur Penrhyn Stanley, D. D.
Brian. Profesior of Ecclesiastical Biotory in the
Eniversity ofi Oxford, and Canon of Christ Church.
From the Secend London Edition, Revised N.
York: Marisa Scribner. .1862. Pittaburnh for
We by B. S. Davie, Wood etrAt.
No recent Publication. so far as we know,
in the whole domain of ecclesiastical history,
has one-half the freshness of interest which
belongs to the volume before us, whether we
regard the choice of the subject Basal', or the
interesting Manner in which it is treated.
Here is no tedious, dry recital of facts; no mere
compilation business; no hackneyed repitition
of old comttionplaces ; no more inversion,
fiat, stale Rio unprofitable, of old material,
without the laddition of anything new, or
the verßicatiOn of the old by original research.
The learned and gifted author of the History
of thiEeetern Church, is no mere book-maker.
Thig, as wallas all his previous works, in in
stinct with the life of bin own earnestness and
filth, befitting the pupil, the friend and the
biographer tif Dr. Arnold, of Rugby. The
same widely, sympathetic spirit--catholic,
in the best end moat truly obviation sense
of that much-abused word in our religious
vocabularies?-le characteristic cf the pupil as
of the teacher. Besides his general qualifica
tions for the' task he has undertaken in the
work before; tts, Dr. Stanley, by his preced
ing works, has approached this one in the
way of preptOation. An early work of his,•
"Sermons and Essays on the Apostolic Age,"
and, especially w most elaborate and valuable
mark published a few Years ago, entitled,
"Sinai and Palestine in Connection with their
History," show that he approached the pret
erit work with excellent advantages from his
review' studios. Travel in the East and in
ussia=the latter especially—has been an
excellent proWsso of preparation. The history
of the Council of Nimes, the relations of Ma
hometanism to
,the Eastern Church, and the
history of the Russian Church in its rise, and
daring the Middle ages, with its transitional
epoch of 'refdrmation,' have never before been
told in our language-with that comprehen
siveness of knowledge, Completeness of survey
of the wholohistoncal field, and skillfulness
in grouping details, combined with , that viv
idness, animation, and gracefulness of style,
which wo meet with in the work before ue.
Indeed its Main:Med and pictureique - style
alone, withoMt considering the weightier
matters that.!commend it, would'auffice to se
cure it a favo6ble reception with readers of
literary taste. We therefore, heartily wel
come the republication of it in this country—
and especially as Mr. Scribner has given it to
us In all the grace and beauty of form.aud
material for Which the Riverside press has
become famous.
Grcian 16ondnct of Policemen
It is poeltiely asserted that, on Tuesday
afterhoon last, two of tho Mayor's police ea-
tared a "fashionable" house do Grant street,
both being under the influence of liquor. One
of theta emptied the Contents of a very foul
stomach upon the parlor carpet, while the
other was au ring himself thumping on the
piano! Theiindignation of the lady of the
house was arimsed, but when she remonstrated
the men thrtiw themselves back upon their
"official dignity," cursed_ her for a (we
cannot repent; the language) and threatened to
kayo her arrtisted'and her house broken, up I

A large cavalry force, under Col. Elliott,

omens that it was known in Corinth last night
that a large bridge had been destroyed forty
miles South, by a body of our cavalry ; and
alaodhat Pope's 20-pounder Parrotte, yester
day, enfiladed their camps, killing eighty
then and one hundred horses ; alio that a
30 pounder Parrott shell, thrown into Corinth
by Pope as an experiment, destroyed a loco
motive and killed the engineer.
It is thought among military men that the
destruction of the bridge South, the uncom
fortable proximity of our falling shells, and
the possibility of a federal success on. the
Mississippi, were the causes of the evacuation.
The enemy's works are certainly of very great
strength, and capable of stout resistance.

camp at , Strasburg, the Saturday previous to
the bloody affair at Front Royal, it was
• known that hordes of guerrillas were swarm
ing the mountains and "the valleys 9f the
North and South forks of the Shenandoah, on
our rear and flanks, but no indications coeld•
be obtained of any concentrated attack. Still,
the very _weakness of our army Would, if
known to the rebel, commanders, be sufficient
to induce an onslaught with even equal num
bers. No favorable 'responses having, , been
received from Washington, as - to reinforce
ments, an officer was specially dispatched'
thither to lay the case before the War De
partment in season; but before completing
his ditties, news came of the attack at Front
Royal, and a few hours later the retreat of
Gen. Banks' entire army towards Maryland. ,
At the hotel in Front RoYal;en the night
of the 18th, your correspondent sale an ac
complished prostitute who has figured largely
in the rebel cause, and having seen her but a
short time previous at Martinsbul, her •!
presence at Front Royal ata time When the
rebels were surrounding it, suspicionelsere
aroused that she meant mischief. Sho 'was
pointed out to the military conimanders there,
and her arrest advised. It is now; known
that she was the bearer of an, extensivecorre.\ l
spondence between the rebels inside and out
side of our lines. I have the. following state- .
most from an, officer who p4tioipated in the
battle at Front Royal:
" After you: left Front Royal, Belle Boyd
made a trip to Winchester inicompany with is
cavalry officer. While there she was arrested
by the military authorities, but, with. her.
usual adroitness and &maimed ianticence,.
she got clear-of any charge of treache
ry, and returned to Front Royal. '
again.
An hour previous to the' attack on Col.
Ken icy, Belle went to a rise of ,ground South
of the town and was seen to wave her hand
kerchief towards the point from which the
centre of the attack was wale. Your *re
spondent cannot vouch for the strict accura
cy of all the foregoing, but undeniable proof
exists here of her treason. 1
"Belle now reposes on Sher laureli in the
confederate camp.", ,
The first intelligence of tholattack ou Front'
Royal was brought to Wine4ster by' one of
the Ira Harris Guard, and. was telegraphed
to Gen. Banks'at Strasburg by Capt. Flagg,
Assistaat Quartermaster U. 4. A. But fifteen
minutes elapsed after the rebels were discov
ered before Col. Eenley's codmand was com
pletely surrounded.
The details of the murderolts affair ..having
boon published, are omitted in this correiPon
dance.
The large quantity - of medicine, surgeons'
instruments and hospital stores at Winchester
were destroyed by medical purveyor Baxter
while the enemy were in the town,. Dr. Box:
tar passed through a storm of balls and shell
and was several lanes fired on from the Tay
lor house, where he had boarded for weeks.
Collies' Zeugmas D' Afriguo, a liattalioriof
Ira Harris' Guard, under Col. De Forrest,
Capt. Hampton, of the Pittsburgh battery, a
few of his men, and a small body of infantry,
were cut otl by the main body of the ,enemy
between Middletown and Winchester— The
whole force consisted of less than one thou
sand men. The Zouaves and cavalry bad
been detailed to destroy the Bridges after our .
retreat. Capt. Hampton ' after securing his
guns, wont to the rear tobringnif his 'battery
wagon and forges. Finding their retreat 'cut
off, they retraced the road to Strasburg. Sev
eral times, Hampton checked the
,pursuit of
the enemy's cavalry by mounting* stove pipe
on his carriage, and placing it in "a position
till the infantry had passed ahead. The rase
was not discovered by the enemy. Riaching
Strasburg, this force. eollnoted - thirty-lite"
abandoned wagons, loaded with
.commissary
stores. Thanes they took the mountain road.
North, and by a clrcuitoes reete came in sight
of Winchester, only to findobemselves' in the
enemy's rear taking the niadlte Bath, follow
ed, by a battalion of rebeh'eavalry. They
fipally reached the Potomac near Hancock,
.and reached here last night, With but a• email
loss. On one..occasion thej Zonave l s, only
about seventy in number, kept at bay, 'for a
quarter of an hour, a brigade of the enemy,
and perhaps saved the whole force. The
Zounves are General Banks' body guard,.and
appear to have been well selected for each an
important duty. The following is their loss:
S.illed—Jagices Laurier, We McLane, and
Jas. M. Britton. Wounded+Chas. Fedalin.
None missing. .1
At Hancock, the. Zonavett found, secured
and brought off eix CaSes of rifles.. Less than
50 wagons out of about 500,1 including many
considered worthless by Gen. Shields 'when
he left this column, have ben lost, and the,
enemy have derived bat lit tle
benefit from
what was abandoned on the , road. A large
amount of old camp equipage, turned over as
useless to the Quartermaster,Neas burnt.. One
of the principle acquisitions Iby the enemy
e r
was between 600 and 1,000 , uropean. rifles,
which were left. there by Gen shields when her
left Gen. Banke.command. •
