The Presbytery of Allegheny met In Se
wickley, on Tuesday, purslane to adjourn
ment, and was opened with 4rayer by the
Moderator. .
Dr. Swift, 'Chairmin ofhe COMmittee
appointed at the late meetin gof Presbytery,
to meet with
.ehe parties in Dr. Plamer's
-Church and reOoncile differences, if possible,

resign his pastoral relation with the Chinch
or, if that were deemed inexpedient, 2d, To
accept the preposition of the "Church" party
to reimburse the memorialists to the amount
contributed by them from pending peen
niaryobligations" as a settlement of the came.
Mr. Conrad moved the athiption of the first
alternative presented in the report.
Dr. Plumer naked the reading of the paper
of the memorialists!, in which they had as
"rented to the f,fpietiniary". settlement. The
Committee of the Church submitted : let. We
will retain :the name of the Central Church.
2d. We will retain the chirter. Id. We will
retain the building of the Central Church.
The right to done was clear, in view of defi
nite arrangements" entered info, and' agreed
uPoP by both parties. If Presbytery does,
not endorse this voluntary agreement, it will;
only breed difficulty.
The Church had prospered under his charge.
In the beginning, they had but forty-four
members; now it was three-fold.that number.
Dr. P. then read the statement touchinghis
case, presented by the Church party, in which
they assert their confidence ;in hia consistent
adherence to the deelaratien made by the Gen
emi Assembly:
Mr. Conrad said that the.: first alternative
fell in with his idea for, theproper settlement
of the question. In view of his probable de
parture for the field of war, a short time since;
he had prepared a paper to the same effect,
which he had intended to offer. If Presbytery
' should conclude that the existing relation be
tty:len pastor and people of the Central Church
shoild be sustained, he could not endorse the
action. Highly' as hi esteemed the Doctor,
he could not sustain him in his coarse. He
would not dare to leave this house unless he
made a clean breast of IL
Dr. Plumer said his position was simply
this: Ile neier bellev'ed that. God would give
us a peace by bloodshed. Every battle makes
it harder to reconstruct the Government. He
had prayed that God would. give saccese. to
righteleasures., , No mistchads right to impute
opinions to him which he disavowed. Charges
against him were t "inforences'"•—“conse
' q_uctozet;" for ;which be was not responsible.
tie had voted:for the - resolution, passed at the
I last PresbyterY, because they were expressed
in plain terms, of which. be approved. Was
it right for Presbytery to step in and dissolve
ehurch relations on groinde that he did not
sanction 7
Dr. Annan Wished to explain that his offer
ing noobjection 'to the arrangement for ad
justment on the pectiniaay basis) was not to
be eclastrited into a sanction of the question
at the bottoutaf this cave. If his vote was to
be so •interprited, it was impious—he with
drew it. Thu Church Courts had recommend
ed that the :blessing of God should be im
plored on cur arms for their success by land
and EO3. Thi4 were bound by that authority
to see that their peelers, did their duty. If
there is a cense ender heaven upon which the
blessing of trod shotild be implored, it is this.
Mr. Annan : thee quoted extracts from a let
ter of Dr. Plamer s, *HUM some time slime,
in which severe throats agt . liast "abolitionists"
were contained. •
Dr. Planet interrupted to state that if he
ever had written ouch a letter, the fact had
escaped his recollection.
Dr. Annan'resuming; anted that the reso
lutions of the last 'Presbytery, of ' which Dr.
P. bad approved, were pronounced in Cincin
nati and elsewhere, as"milk-and-water." If,
however, Dr: P. can vote for these resolutioas,
he has mime:iced one position of his—he bee
voted on a subject which is not an nor colas
tisal one.'
Rev. D. E.-Nevin did not think it strange
that exception should be had to an omission
on the part of Dr. P. to pray for the soldiers,
but the arrange:meet fox adjustment of the
case had beep agreed epee by the partlee,and
Presbytery ought to be satisfied.
B. Li. Davie discussed ilia financial view of
the case, and contended for the right of the
majority to rule.
T. 11. Neein said that the great difficulty
in the way of meeting this case clearly and
fairly, was the introduction of individuals—
pershns into the.controversy. Dr. .Plumer
was not the party of either part- Hewes not
arraigned before Presbytery charged with-dis
loyalty or anything else. ilia inilioideol ease

Dr. Elliott found himself in a delicate posi
tion. The discussion 'has, mistakenly, been
Dr. Plitiner=Dr. Plumer. The true question
is, how may the diftlotilties in the Central
Church be healed? Both parties adhere to
our Book. ' It instructs us in a principle which
meets the case. When a call is prepared it
must be presented to the Presbytery, who, if
they deem it aspedient, will present it. This
principle t welles to this cue. What deter
mines es lam ? Is it decided by number.?
No. Majorities are often wrong. Wealth?
No. One man may buy out a church. A
church must be "fitly framed together." No
church will otherwise prosper. If he were
satisfied that the act would bring the church
together, he would vote the first preposition.
The representatives of the two parties s in the
Church, whe were present, were Invited to
speak. Mr. Willi D. Riddle, Capt. Martin
and Mr. Smith a peered on behalf of the
were present ,
Dr. Dale plied on behalf ,of the
Memorialists in a annex. 'so eloquent and ef
fective as to prods loud tckens of applause
from the assembly. .
The vote was then had on- the adoption of
the first alternation, which resulted as fol. 1
lows :
Yeas—T. U. Nevin, Rev. Bigot Swift, Rev.
L. L. Conrad, Rev. Wm. Annan, D.' D., Rev.

Novi—John B. Stokes, R. 11. Davis, A.
Cameron, Revs. John Lannits, D. E. Nevin,
`L. R. MeAboy, D. D.
The casting vote was thrown in negatively
by the Moderator, Rev. David Cunningham,
which decided the question against the first
proposition. .
When the Presbytery met, aft.e'r 'the recess,
the question came 'op on the second alterna
tive, that of sanctioning the Pecuniary agree
ment between the two parties in the Central
Choral. 'Appended to,this were some regula
tions recommended for the disposal of the .
money to be paid by the one party to the
other, and the formation of a new church, and
also some eihortations to the Plower party to.
- be loyal, etc. After a long debate, in which
the moat strenuous efforts wore made to relieve
the Presbytery from appearing to sanction the
tonne of Dr. Plower, which course has caused
all those difficulties, the simple endowmentef
the financial.plan was all that was adopted.
. Afterwards, a series of loyal resolutions
were offered, entirely distinct from the Central
Church matter, and the yeas and nays were
called. The resolutions were passed unani
mously. When Dr. Plumer's name was
called, he declined to vote. Attar some fur
ther propuitions and discussions the Presby
tery ;adjourned about midnight. The only
things done were—in the first place, rejecting
the first alternative of the Committee, design
ing to dissever Dr. Plumes connection with
the Central Church; and secondly, sanctioning
the pecuniary egieement between the memo
rialists and the Plumer party.

OUR SPECIAL"DISPATCHES:
1 8 Pecha phrratch to the Pittsturgh Gazette.]
WASHINGTON, July 9,1862'
ARIIIIIO THZ 112011.0!Ut
The Senate had a long diectuntion to-day
on the policy of arming the negro s. Preston
King had a new bill,ltehich he Moved as an
amendment to Mr. Wilson's Militia bill, al
ready before the Sentite. It authorises the
enlisting or negroes, te be armed and equipped
as soldiers,, arid 'usedi. for digging intrench
'manta, or any othei . ;military purposes for
which they might be wanted. • •
Messrs. Saulsbury mad Patine opposed such'
attempts to elovate the miserable negro.
Mr. Sherman argued that the rebels had
persistently used negroes for all military pur
poses, and we ought to do the same. He
warmly urged a mote vigororts end earnest
prosecution of the wit*: i .
Mr. Peesenden tirades. tine speech, denounc
ing the milk and water pnthiy, calling defame
strategy, trying to humbug the people with
flaming hi:Malmo( viotories s that were really
disgraces, declaring this white kid glove war
fare would not do any loioger, and insisting
on;the use of negroes, like every other means
of power God has.given us.
Rice's speech was markodly signifteant.'
That an old and , bitter Breekinridge. Demo
era,' should go further for prosecutink the war
vigorously than border State loyalists pro
voked special notice. Ile:deelared that we
must now choose between acknowledging the
Southern Confederacy and using all the means
God has given ni to crush' the Confederacy.
Great Britain had long erePloyedaegiments of
blacks in Canada, and Witeltington and Jack
son had used them suoseisfally. If right for
them, why was it wrong for its ? The' rebels
made use of torpedoes, poisons, and all bar
barous means of warfareiandyet we hesitated
as to whether it would be right and humane,
and civilised, to let negroes shoot at them..
Mr. Wilson, of Mass:, after planting our'
present military condition, complained of the
rose-colt:dud military and newspaper bulletins
from before Richmond, and urged the imme
dist° necessity of a moritrigoroesProsihution
of the war.
By this time Garrett Duis was thoroughly
stirred up. He started off in his usual strain
—negroes are of no acqou t nt for military put
poses—couldn't fight—barbarous and inhuman
to arm them--Morder rape,massacroing of the
innocents, torture, universal anarchy and
desolation, etc., etc., se:cording to the cata-
logue of horrors. ;.
Mr. Wilkinson cornered him with Jackson's
ass of Degrees at 'New Orleans, and with his
address of thanks to them aftervrards, but he
dodged very skilfully by declaring there wail
urgent necessity then and none now. He
complained that Senators from extreme.
Northern States were willing to-bring the
horrible danger of arming the slaves upon
the border States, and. asked, "Why won't
you listen to as who know more about the no
groes than you do?"- At most . he was
lag that negroes should be used in loading
cannon and swabbing or even firing on cer
tain occasions, but he 'prayed that the Sena..'
tors, if they had any- regard for innocent
women and children, not to make occasion.
. Rice at cure replied. * regretted that
the Senator had foliud subjects fer his el.;-
queriee in arming Indians at Pea Ridge, or
that he had not come down •later and de
nounced the use of the maddening compound
of gimpowder and whisky at Richmond. But
these , were only actions of the rebels. The
Senator's eloquence was reserved fur (litter
•
purposes.
Mr. Dli'illy interrupting; asked: Do tbo
barbarities of rebels justify barbarities in us 7
Mr. Rice continued—l will answer the Sen..
ator very briefly. ,If a stranger had entered
the chamber during the Senator's speeob; be
would bare sennoted him to be 'an etubssen
dor from the Southern Confederacy.
Mr. Uarrett iDavlr, excitedly—lt's not so.
Several Senatots called out "order."
This little pissage between an old Breokin
ridge Democrat and a border State coercion
fat, excited great attention.- Davis lost his
tamper, and get decidedly the worst of the
debate.
Mr. Rion rettitued Let the Senator say
what he Piantas. ho won't disOompose
Davis [crabbedly]—Will, don't you mis
represent me.
Mr. Rico sopped that belted represented him
fairly, and given the-exact spirit of bib
speech, and then went on urging the necessity
of putting forth our 'every power. The Sena
aloe. was willing .negrues should, in case of
necessity, be used-for loading and swabbing
and even firing cannon. Why not, he would
ask the klenator r let them be used for loading
and swabbing and bring muskets?

adjourn next . :ll.londair. But 'Bulb businers
remains except, the Confiscation and Tariff
Bilis, which ere in the bands of Conference
Committees; Provisonal Govern
ment BJII, Which still hangs fire in the Senate.
. The same law; authoring , the . ,omployment
of negroes in nillits7 duties, is pretty oortaib
to be crowded through before adjournment.
The Republicans seem 110601010 US on the sub
ject, and the late reverser before Richmond
have opened the eyes of many conservative
Demoorats.and border kale men to oitr peril

mode of conducting the war is latency, and

LASE •NO mons.
Maj. Gen. Lew Wallace was serenaded at
the National to-night. An immense crowd
•were in attendance. On making his appear
ance at the balcony, Gen. Wallace was greeted
with 'uproarious ! cheering, which was con
tinued after al most every sentence of his
speech. Ile accepted the compliment, not for
himself, tint for the brave comrades he had
left behind'him, and who had won for bim
the distinction !thei were confirming. Ile
supposed they were mostly Indianians who
were tendering the compliment, and lee had a
peculiar pride in accepting it as such. There
were peculiar circumstances under which the
Indianians had enlisted in this war. They
were under tße cloud, and had been pro
nounced cowards by authority. They had
written their Watery differeetly now, for• the
'regiment he had the honor to lead had ! sworn,
ae they took their banners, to remember
Buena Vista :and wipe out - the stain.
The other;day they had returned those ban
ners to the balls from which they came. At
Dunelson they had been shot to shreds. At
Pittsburgh Landing they were almost shot
away, and the shell had carried off the whole
union, but they had never waved save over
victory for the nation, and honor to the"irow
ardly Indians:l' lie was no politician.: He
had:teen in the Senate to-day, and found the
question to Le whether they should use the
nigger' r 'not. (The audience here broke out
into tumultuous cries of "yes," "no," "yes,"
the yeses largelytpreduatinatieg.
The General'resemed. He found his audi
ence very: much as he found the Senate—con
eiderably I divided. Let bim give his answer.
It should be that of a soldier, not as a poli
tician. Asa soldier, he believed it to be his
duty to use every means of enemy God bad
'given bins. It he could save his soldiers. (rem
unhealthy work by baring negrooa dig trench
es or erect fortifications, he would hold him
self inexcusable not to use them. [The cheer
tag here !di-corned out his voice for !reversal !
minutes.] As!silence began to be restoredL-
Vojees, "that's right; no guns, but spades
far them:"
Well, resumed the General, after patting
these negroes in the army, in positions of
great , peril, and after reaping great advanta
ges from !their' labor, would it not be unjust
to leave them without arm( to defend them

those w ho had rendered assistance in hours of
peril, be would, at the end of the war, give
them their freedom.. The cry, which came to
us he hoped was false, but it came that the
.Army of the Potomac was in danger. 'lf so,
the Government was in danger. Ought Con

We want them quickly. Was it safe,!, then,
for Congress to „go away without having
