At a meeting of the congregation of the U. I'. Church of this place, held on Saturday the Bth inst., llev. N. k. lirown, of llarrisville was chosen pastor of said church. The ease was moderated by llev. W. A. Rlack BP9u In last week's American, Mr. Negley appears over the signature of"M in vindication of his views and interest. The American however, avoids indorsing his position and contents himself with referring our Mercer county friends to the communication. That is all right. We too .would cheerfully concede to him a hearing, but could not- indorse his views. DIED. —At his residence in Millers town, on Wednesday, the 10th inst., Rev. Win. A.

Kdit'rrt Ameritun Citizen: —l have frequently been inquired ol why ono of the resolutions passed at the late Repub lican Convention held in liutler, did not appear in the published proceedings, an directed by the Convention.. Reing sec retary of that Convention, it was expec ted that 1 would have the proceedings published, and in order to justify myself, •it becomes necessary to state the follow- ino facts : The business of the Convention was generally- done by written resolutions, and it becoming late in the evening, and wishing to start home, 1 had not time t> prepare a minute for publication.

TUJS TRIAL OF JUF. DAVIS —Tho Herald's correspondent says he has high authority for stating" that the subject of Jeff. Davis, trial tad never been officially discussed.

A well informed correspondent, wri ting from Galveston recently, of the sur render of Kirby Smith, says; As a matter of form it was well.. that Kirby Smith and Magruder did send commissioners and did consent to surren der the Trsns-Missippi Department, but as a matter of ftct, the whole affair was one of the subliniost farces of the war.— Who and what did Kirby Kmith surren der ? He surrendered regiments that had disbanded two weeks previous and had gone off to their homes, swearing bitter vengeance against all their leaders, political and military. He surrendered troops over whom ho at that time had about as much control as he had over the bodyguard of the King of Dahomy.— He surrendered men that were scouring the country, hanging quartermasters, contractors and cotton speculators where they could find them. Ho surrendered an Empire that could not muster a single organized regiment or companylrom the Mississippi to the Kio Grande. He sur rendered,in short,to save himself, disban ded soldiers whom he had been so long de fraudingand who would show him no mer cy. These facts I have ascertained from the bitterest traitors themselves since we have been in Galveston. For the last two years Smith and Magruder have been speculating in cotton under shelter of the Confederate name, and refused to pay any moiety to the deluded masses that have garrisoned their forts and stations. They have fed them on lies. They have disallowed the publication of the truth in regard to Northern victories, 'ihey have cxaggera'ed the number of the loy alists slain, and have kept quiet in re gard to the defeats of llood and John ston. The Tcxans have been unfortu nately situated for the gaining of iuteli gcnce. The blockade runners brought in a lew New York papers, but only a few, and even those were suppressed it' found to contain tidings of Union victories.— "This has been the rich man's war," they all say, even thoso who cling to the dear doetriue of secession, and worship the memory of Jeff. Davis. There are still hundreds and thousands in Texas who desire to sec the Lone Star flag once more. They want to bo inde pendent of the United States, Mexico, England, France and civilization gener ally. They profess that they "went in" with the Confederacy to "help them out." 'I hey thought it would be selli-h to goof! an their own account, and therefore they linked their fortunes with Davis, and now they are' whipped out at JA.it," as they freely confess. 1 love in a former letter given my views in regard to Southern loyalty in Florida and Alabama. The impression prevails in the North that a large propor tion of the people of Texas were at heart loyal. We have been mistaken. The rank and file of the disbanded soldiers, and of the citizens in the city of Halves ton, and the country round about, are traitors of the dee] est dye. I spent one day visiting tlio ruins of ■ the metropolis of Texas. Although no : marines or provost guards arc in the city, yet comparatively good order prevails i The people seem to he too much depressed I to hurl aay one., and officers and seamen are unmolested. The silence of tin eter nal Sabbath rests upon the deserted wharves and desolated habitations. Fur niture of every kind is very scarce, and the houses appear to have been gutted and sacked by an enraged soldiery. The shelves in the stores arc empty, and the proprietors look lung f<jr qustoniers.— Nothing is for sale and nothing to pay for it. Specie is the currency for those who j haft'e it, and beef for those who have i nothing better. I visited the slave mart. ! It was closed, for negro stock is down, j and no purchasers can be found at any price, although there are more slave l in i Texas than there were before the war.— j Dogs areas thiek as the locusts in Egypt and the nights are made hideous by their | incessant howling. The sobrirquct of j "dog town," usually applied to it, is well merited. The city boasts of few elegant [ residences, and not one attractive street or park. | A large part of the population of aro foreign birth, Germans,Spauiards,French Northerners, Africans. A terrible blood thirsty look these rangers have! Scores of bowin knives would be thrust into our hearts were it not for the guns of the fleet. Were it not for the military power it would be worth one's life to stand in the mar ket place of Galveston and say - 'I am an American citizen." Iu no part of the professedly civilized world is haunn lifo held in such low esteem. They act lite rally upon the principle that man is but to die. The other day I saw a crowd collected in the stieet; I impaired what the t.ouble was. "O, nothing much," was the reply of a chivalric young man of sixteen, '-they have only killed a nig ger." Perhaps it is because slave stock is down that they do not mind .their lass The citizens' guard were on the spat and repionstrated with the crowd. It was •vident-that they at least regarded the act as somewhat discourteous and ungon tlonianly. .-■-The Richmond Whig has been sus pended by Gen. Terry, for traitorous Cull duet. Trj jiiK mid I'uiilsliiiig Jell*. Davis. Tho N. Y. J'ott remarks that "there is apparently considerable liesitat'on on the part of the Govern ment ns to the expediency of bring ing Jefferson Davis to trial on the charge of treason, the punishment of which is death." It remarks further, should his life be taken our friends abroad would be greatly disappointed. The I'ast dis cussing the question without coming to any conclusion concerning the prospect of trying and punishing Davis, except that these embarrass ments may have a good effect on tho a:tion of the Government. "It is not to be wondered at, therefore, that our friends in other countries should have some painful apprehensions of the effect which the condign punish ment of the traitors here may have for the cause of liberty on the conti nent of Hurope, and should dread from a severer and harder exercise of arbitary power in repressing the slightest off r to question the rijet fulness of despotism. X feeling cf this kind, we have no doubt, lies at 1 the bottom of many appeals which come from that quarter in beh'ilf ot j a mercifu' and indulgent course to-! wards the vanqu'shed and captured leaders of tho rebellion. We do not j wonder that some imprssion should be made on our Government by their remonstrances." }!ut tho Pout tninks should bo no liesitatisn about trying and punishing Davis for starving to death our soldiers. "It was by his uouthor* ity," it.says, "that thousands of our country men, guild ss of any offence but that of beiring arms in the cause of their country, were put to death in their captivity by the slow est process known to murder. Thous ands of graves cry to heaven for vengeance 011 the deliberate perpe t ator of this fearful homicide. — Whether he live or dies, the guilt of a brutality for which the records of history furnish no parallel, goes with him. If he bo not arraigned for treason, hero is an offence, supported by the clearest proof, more infamous than any mere revolt against estab lished authority could be; and more shocking to all human sympathies. Why there is nothing said of making him stand a trial for these murders we do not profess to know. They could be proved before a court of justice in such a manner a t o justify, in the eyes of the whole Christian world, the severest penalties know® to our laws." Davin' IliNgnlw and Davis' Iron*. The 'ast number ut' the Army urn! Na vy ./<innet/ thus states the ease iu re spect to two controverted incidents in tho life and adventure* of Jefferson Davis: '•'l'lie question as to tho attempt of Davis to escape in a woman's cloak and shawl would seem to be set litially nt rest— even f6r those who refuse to believe the sworn testimony before tho War Depart ment — by the publication of several de scriptions of the affair IVflm rebel sources These confirm Colonel I'iitchard's ae eou.nt, and amply refute the slander that the story is nu otTicia't jnwul ion, A collateral bit of evidence comes to us, in the description given by llie officer f-ent to take possession of the water-proof and shawl, of his interview with the Uavis party. The ladies refusing to point out which was the proper shawl, the wrong one was taken, but the mistake was cor rected by a little son of Davis, who call ed out, '■Tliatisn.t the shawl my J';i was taken in," which may be accepted as, at ltast circumstantial evidcucc to the fact there was a shawl in the ease. As to the ironing of Mr. Davis since his imprisonment at Fortress Monroe, the facts are briefly these : It was left diserc iofc iry by the Secretary of War with ( Jen. M den. who commanded at Old l'oint, to iron his prisoner or not as he saw lit, ho being held only to a strict accountability fir his safety. It became necessary to the solid door closing tho case ment in which Davis is conliiaed for a fyatcd door, which would <xive him bet tor air. and better secure his safe keep ing. The process of changl ng tho doors offering a possibility of escape, it was de tci mined to put a liuht pair of irons on Mr Davis, ankles. To this he made sueh decided objections by upsetting the black smith as he stooped to lasteu the irous, that resort to force became necessary. — Tho anklets were the only irons used, and these were in a short time removed. V batever may be thought ot the necesi ty for (heir use, it is certain that their temporary employment has had the most happy effect in reducing the prisoner to a degree of civility which was not emi nently characteristic of him on his first incarceration. TAKING TIME TO CONSIDER. —It lias been several days since we have seen anything in the Democratic pa pers particularly friendly to Andrew Johnson. It is evident that they have taken time to think over soc:e of his recent acts.-r—rthe approval of the Military Commission, the special sus pension of the habeas corpus in reply to Wylie, the prcolamation of martial law in Norfolk, the roply to the Virginia Twenty Thousand Dol lar men, and some other things he h.-\s dope within the last ten days.— We trust our Democratic friends will not reconsider their deteamination to support President Johnson, just as he is proving to all good m >n and pa triote how worthy lie is of .their sup port. —The Reporter says it has been .agcertaitted by actual experiment, ,that the rock in conneant harbor lies more .than 24 feet below the sur face of the gravel. Copper ore has ako been discovered in a gravel bank. TkBATMEN'T of I'uisonkbs. —The opinion seems to bo gaining ground, that our prisoners in the hands of the rebel authoitics were subjected to the inhuman treatment thiVT'thiy experienced, by a deliberate policy. Investigations are in progress wliicn will sho'.v whether this opinion is cor rect or not. If it shall turn out to bo incorrect, we shall certainly re joice, as human nature will be exon erated from one of the most odious im putations ever laid upon it If, on the other ban 1, it shall be ascertained that our .poor men wore slaughtered n thousands by the horrid proces •, if starvation, through wicked design or scarcely less wicked neglect, the fiendish contrivers and agents of such a cruelty should, without exception paid the forfeit of their tuisejable lives for th? deed. We wish t may turn out otherwise. It is sickening to think of sucli indescribable an guish and miserX of mind and bdoy as our men endured till death re lieved them, as deliperately planned and inflicted. Savages never perpe trated such atrocity. HI'IK I lOfICEH. CONNOftUKNKSSINO I.ODII P N ' ■ 1 "■" K "« .<*.SJ> Mnin Strrcl. nitllcr IMiim ->riy M mday evening, at tlx o'clock.
