S. Mill's Stove and Tin shop of this Borough. Our friends who are fitting up for cold weather will find the establishment under the exclu sive charge of Mr. Mills whose skill as a workman, and reputation as a fair dealer is established- For the same reason, a notice of the new Harness shop at Meshoppea is deferred uu til our next. The Grand army of the Potomac has had eight commanders in twenty-four months, viz: General Scott: General McDowell; Geu. McClellan • Gen- Pope ; Gen, McClellan Gen. Burnside; Gen.

What man ever, successfully, run a saw- ! mill, or boot and shoe shop, with as many changes of boss sawyers or foreman, as this War for the—what is it ? has termed up, oommanders-in-chief ? jfcajfc" We commend to our political par sons the following sentiment, uttered by Father Byles, the first pastor of the Park Street Church, Boston, we believe : " 1 have thrown up four breastworks, behind which I have entrenched myself, neither of which can be enforced. In the first place, Ido not un derstand pontics; in the second place, you all do, every man and mother's son of you ; in the third place, you have.politics all the week—pray let one day in seven be devoted' to religion ; in the fourth place, I am engaged * in a work of infinitely mofe importance.

The defeat of the Democracy of Pennsyl vania and Ohio is just what Jeff Davis and hit rebel leaders asked and prayed for. Their presses hsve been, for a long time, saying, " keep down Vallandigham and his party in , the North—give us, rather, men like Thad-j deus Stevens and Charles Sumner; they,-purse*' the Union and demise it and so do tvd?" - , • Thus the Abolitionists of Pennsylvania'ahd Ohio have done just what the rebels asked, and we bjvp no doubt that the elections In two States give quite as much 6atisfae- j tton to-day, to Jeff-Davis A: Co., in Ilichmond. as to Abe Lincoln & Co., iu Washington. Rumored Alterations in the Enrollment Act. WASHINGTON, Oct. 20.—There is talk here in military circles of an early repeal of one of tha sections of the Conscription Act by the new Congress— that which provides for tem porary exemption by the payment of three btmdsed dollars. This will be urged in De oamber, and it is not improbable that when thedqgt draft is tirade, should the quotas not 1 be made up by volunteering, exemption by the payment of money will be impossible. | Some persons here advocate a new lan upon .this sulgect, which shall fix tho price of ex emption at a high figure, say as high as six hundred dollars or even fifteen hundred dol lars, and still further providing that ; in any given district the drafted persons who go in to the army shall receive all the money rais ed in that district by exemption purchase.; lam told on good authority that this idea originated with Mr.-Chape, and that he urg. Ed it upon the Government some time ago. Let the man who goes to the war have the meney of the man who will not go. : Such a law would provide that no poor man would be compelled to leave a family behind with out means of support,— Daily Neu>*, Its Cost, Ac. Theeoet of the election of Curtin, to the eountry and the tax payers, has been the Itooa of thousands of white freemen and mill tons af property. V But what matters all thia to the Abolition 1 Signers 1 Nothing. It gives tbom office awd plunder, and they are satisfied and re jn*o>. although they know that Curtin's elec tion only tends to push the country forward on tho road to national ruin. " The he 1 •We lay before out rfepders in this number, another letter from Kef. Mr. Brojfnsconifca, to J. Bewltt, Esq., wrftten ifiHwtle remoVir" of the latter gentlqpnan from this county.— Complaints have #me to our knowledge on 1 account of our allowance of so much of our ! space for Jhe publication of a correspondence i which .hithertofbaa been poiotless, and aim less, so ftras ad} question is concerned in i 1 which the public can "be expected to* take an interest. For this final repetition of the hi- i fliction, in a form still more objectionable end offensive than either of its predecessors, we I feel constrained to state our reasons. This t letter, it must be is, in point of i merit, of any sort, very far below anything i that we expected to publish whsn we con- I sented, upon the writers invitation, to opon 1 our columns to a discussion of tbe'Bible as- I ! pect of the Slavery question. Had we antic-'- i ipatO'i that this proposed discussion would so < speedily degenerate into a mere personal al- 1 , tercation," oji pgrt"of the challenger , 1 with accusations of falsehood and slander, and i eqdipg witifboyiah boasts, idle ' vapormgs, 1 |( assertions, unworthy insinuations and < jve stantially confessed by that gentleman him self; while.lhe new matter introduced in this i number requires no notice at the hands of Mr. t Dewilt; In relation to the new issue of ve- r racity raised by the Kcv'd. correspondent, viz: that involving his assertion that Bishop Hopkins'bad .misquoted scripture, it is pro per for us to say: Ist. th. t to apply the words " pliant tools" to gentleman for no causey oth er than that they have dared to testify to their recollection of a single allegation of the Bev'd writer iu a sermon by him in their presence, is unworthy a gentleman—un worthy the writer himself.- Wbofce " pliant . tools" are those "gentlemen" who diid not happen to remember tb'c objectionable word ? We do not characterize them as "pliant tools," nor stoop to the insinuation that they are not " gentlemen." But does not the'writer know that these negative certificates upon which he so plumes himself; are of very little value in opposition to positive testimony ? His friends may not have, reupfttbered a single word of < his sermon;.but that would not prove that he preached no sermon. Nor would it prove that others vc%o nrnfenfrmber certain pointa of fheffiscpurse, testify falsely in relation tb such pdlhta. * Tfcose philosophers who have most Investigated.the sources of truth, as de "pehJent 'upon* human testimony," all agree that evidence of this sort is of very little val jje-jn oppbsiujpato prteit .t&tiinqoy. Does ■ ndf*Mr. I>ro\4iifcorobe know that his charge cf "misquoting*Rhtptiirc was a matter of- pub lic notoriety many days before Such charge ,h9camc a matter of dispute betwWn-totn and Mr. Dewitt—that- men -* went straightway from his church to- tbeir-Bibles te' see for themselves whether the Bishop had misquot ed, or the preacher had- falsely accused 1 2nd. The Kev'd writer has much to say about pettifogging ;" and his own cornrnu nications, oert&itd} exhibit much familiarity, on his part, with that process of argument that he so characterizes. His criticism of lan guage employed by Mr. S. \V. LiUle in his affidavit, affords the most uaavkod example of pettifogging that now occurs tons;. Mr. L. very properly declines " to state from merno ' ry, the very words" in which Mr. Brown ' 6CombeS churge of misquoting was exprtesad, but deelares his recollection distinct that •such-charge WAS made This is: the plain meamjig of the affidavit, and t is very plain Jy , and correctly exp/vtoed . therein.; Mr. Browhscombc should ( renaepntjpr that this ( ppor quibbling about words i&.mever resorted to id a good case, and is especially unbecora ing a dignitary of the church. . 3rd. The writers excuse for resting his de nial upon the uusworn certificates of his friends is plainly disiugsnuous. In reference to human testimony, the law has made an oath one of the principal tests of truth, and the public will believe, as we believe, that the true reason why they were not sworn was because they had no distinct recollection on the subject ; or at least, not sufficiently dis tinct to warrant them in testifying to it upon oath. Wc venture the assertion that neither of them would set up hrs gentility us a reason , why he should not be sworn to a fact of which he had a distinct recollection. Iu the history of this world it will be found that many men, , who were quite as good " gentlemen" as Mr. i Brownscombes negative unsworn witnesses, have verified their words by their oaths, and in no wise compromised their gentility by doing so. The offensive imputation contained iu this excuse is certainly .qqworthy of any gentlemen—an imputation to which we would never consent.to giro publicity without pre senting at the same time this antidotes' to its venom. The world is not yet quite prepared to assume that no mat) can be a " gentlethan" and differ with Mr. B. either upop principle, or upon recollection of a fact. . • Mr. Brownscombes beautiful alhujop tp Jhe terrible scathing that, his opponent it assum ed to have sustained at hit hands ,'trtrtfid'luvs ' been in better taste if his readers .Had been able to maka tha- discovery • from the corre spondence itself, rather Alton from ike 1 word i of the supposed scaXker' ; and in still better taste if it had been made by eome other per son, rather than himself; and batter still, bad it not been made at all. -Übgaastipoably, hia i readers would never have beaa able to see it Without hi* auialftuce. IVe suspect that this scathing will have to be taken on fratft until the Rev. gentleman shall be able to pro . cure some more certificates; which may also "turn out lo bo of a negmfim* character. Bo v. letter wrifif*. instead of com - { meticing the argument, as he, being th* d*l lenging party, might fairly be expected to do> resorts to the poor subterfuge that Mr* D. has refused to discuss the questiop with him. The simple truth is that JIV." •ewitt did nof refuse to discuss the question* with Mf. Brownsoombe ; but. on the contrary, distinct |ly accepted his challenge, stipulating only that the latter, as the challenging party, should commence the discussion. Now, all this quibbling abont" affirmative" and " nega tive propositions" is, to say the very leaat of ! it, disingenuous The question, as stated by both parties, was substantially the same, and If Mr. Brownsc >mbe honestly desired fo dis cuss it, we can imagine no sort of reason for his refusal to begin. He, certainly, ought to be as competent to derl with Bible questions as his opponent, and, as the challenging party, he' should have promptly acquies&d in the condition requiring him to open the argument,. From his refusal to do this after his taunt ing challenge, those who have perused this precious corre'spo'ndence can draw but one in ference deriving additional strength from his present effort to represent his opponent as the party declining the controversy. If Mr. B. offered his challenge in good faith, (a fact that we had a right io assume and did assume) justice to himself demanded that he should not shrink from the discussion because the challenged party imposed, in his acceptance of the challenge, a condition re quiring him to open the argument, after de clining to accept a condition so reasonable and just, the effort to represent Mr. D. as the the party refusing the discussion can but be regarded as unmanly and dishonest. The whole correspondence is before our readers. From its perusal, better than any thing that wc can say, they can jjidga of its merits and demerits. COMMUNICATIONS. For The Democrat. < To>. DCWiTf. Slkt |, 4 > have read with fettle disappointment your scurlou and vindic tive tetter;|o me in the Democrat of the 21st iost. I expected that the recent scathing which I gave you. and the political victories achieved by the loyal people ot the North, would make you hies, squirm, and wriggle. Keep cool, friend Jacob, your friends, if you have any, will reepect you just ae much, for coolness, as for the skill and honesty whieh you have exhibited in your letters to me, You are UDquestiooabty looked upon as e full grown anaconda among the " varmints," and it is probable that they suppose that yoa have gobbled me up,' but I can assure alj concerned, that 1 am elive, end right tide ftp with care. ' ' Yon have most signally failed m all your attempts at conviction and refutation. Yon hare substituted sophistry , fofV argument, quibbling for reasoning, bold assertion for proof, and the pettifogger for*- the lawyer.' You remark, that I do mot soetn disposed to consider any of the issues raised Will you have the effrontery to assert this, when [ have invited you several times to tho dis cussion of the question of American Slavery 1 If I supposed that our readers were *• noto rious for ignorance, as you are for substitut ing brass for brains, and impotence for cor rect statements, I would devote time in re plying. 1 respectfully ask the readers of the Democrat to compare our letters; and to their verdict I am willing to submit. You ask- why I did not publish my ser mon ? Well sir, lam not in the practice of parading my sermons before the public in print, I do not seek notoriety in that way. There are other reasons, the sermon wes not written; only a part of it was devoted to Bishop Hopkin's letter, ami finally had dared to accept the my invitatloni-Tv discuss the question of slavery, I 6hould hsvo antici pated the subject. " ; I protest again, againss your unqualified asseverations that I have refused, or that I " had uo intention of discussing the quession proposed." Why do you not stale that I have refused to discuss the question propos ed by yon? Instead of this you unquestion ably design to convey the false impression, that I have refused, or had no intention to discuss the question proposed by myself. lam thankful that you have placed me in such dignified and honorable company as that of Bishop Potter. The Bishop, sir, can take caro of Bishop Hopkins. I have read Hopkins' reply to Potter and others, it is of the same character of his tetler. lam satis fied that such an apology for the fn'amous system of American slavery, would not have been pobfished by him twenty years ago. Dr. Elliott in the late number of;the*Melh odist Quarterly, rtmafts. That "ptior to 1835 no member of the M. E. Church ever uttered a wcrd for slavery." The first public utterance for slavery was by Rev. S. Durwody in 1835, ip a sermon btftfte the South Carblraa Conference, ' meht in our bearing, waa used by him in 1836, in Cincinnati, before the General Con ference. Many of the southed members held down their beads in sbfmsat 3be so phistry of the pleader tor aitt,' -)£ it ail ment waa, th#t God seat.-llaglf-took to her mistress and therefore silvery was right.— The blundering sophist forgot that thief ser vility of Hagar ended with her own person, as lefimael and hia descendants were nil free; so that the child followed the eonditlon of the free father, and not of the servile moth er. So it was with the four sous of Jacob by the servile mothers. The caea pf Joseph is the true type of slavery and the enslaved Israelites in Egypt. Abraham waa an eman cipetor, uot an enslaver. The law of lloeee prohibited slavery to the Jews and the New Testament pnly repeats the law of Moses :E§ s^yst M stasia* a man,-nd tell •th *!. found In hit hand, be •hall surely be put to death." Pan! electee rne-tealers, tb*t is, those who buy, sell, or htM men a eluvss, except to free them, With nmrdsiSfrs of fiathan and murdoftre of moth era." Bishop Hopkins and his abettors of Amer ican slavery, are welcome to the company jrith which Peat classes them. ? 1 Yes, sir, the public will judge of the merit of our relative positions, ihey, will pase their verdict upon the character of the man who baa neither the courage nor t*be frankness to give lus " private opinion or belief on the slavery question The new dodge of " declining either to censure or approve" the eyetemr of slavery "until the arguments are considered," and at the same time refuse to consider the ar guments, is worthy of the man of your posi tion ! I still insist upon it, that you ask me to Sgove a negative, and your •sefereace to Mills logic does not disprove„ my position. Why did you not show from, his logic that the Vord " inconsistent," is affirqiatiye in sense ? 'Vour supposed analogy dtfes not relieve you froy your emharassment. „ . I care not, therefore," you remark, "if Bishop llophini was attempting to prove a negative," Ac. The legitimate inference from the words is, that the Bishop really does attempt to prove a negative. But does he ? In my last letter I showed most con clusively from the Bishop's own language that he does not. And if you did not pos sess more vanity than honor, you never would have made the foregoing remarks. I beg here to introduce additional testimo ny, that the Bishop's argument is affirma tive and not negative. Dr. Thompson in the Christian Advocate and Journal of the 15th inst., in referring to Bishop Hopkins letter, says : " Some months 1 since Bishop Hopkins of Vermont published a tract to prove slavery a divine instsitu tion." f , . Bishop Potter and a number of his ministers in their employ the words, .dyure me to the waif, you sh/ill now suffer tbs.pposequeu coy pf your teieprUy and tylly; j. v I i;J I shall not charge Little., Harding and Yoang, with having Wilffifty perjured themselves, KriiiH s imp If Say that tboy yfremiatakan, and that, to the vary beet t>f my knowledge I did not " affirm, that Mr. Hopkins had misquoted the Bible. Tf I bed shayged tfae Bishop with misquoting, I should not have employed the phraseology " mis quoted ths-Bxble Whan you first Bad* tUi chare* against me, I did dot bow bat I might hate said it kfeTougb miatak*—a* pobHc speakers ate li\*4 bl* to mak* mistake*. To satisfy myself, t eontulffed My mUm which I bad before me at lb* time of pumfeing, and I did not find the fivord misquoted in thett. I also conferred with the Ret. L. Peck aod others who were present at the time, and they assured that I employed no snch language. I exonerate the Bishop (torn misquoting scripture, but I do not exonerate him from sophistry, misinterpretation and ignorance of scriptural facts. And when 1 assert this, I find myself in good company, aa the follow ing extract from the Christian Advocate and Journal of yesterday will show. The Bishop commences his " Bibfe t lew of slavery" by citing, " Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be to bia breth ren." Gen. 9. 25, and remarks: "The heartless irreverence, which Ham, the father of Canaan, displayed toward his eminent pa rent, whose piety had just saved him from the deluge, presents the immediate occasion of this remarkable prophecy, but the actual fulfillment was reserved for his posterity." Again: " But in regard to the slavery of Ham's posterity he issues his commands dis tinctly." " Now there is little truth and much de- j ceptisn in this language. The curse of Noah was no' pronounced upon Ham and his pos terity at all. It waa Canaan and not Ham that was denounced a servant. Ham and his sons, Cush, Mesriam, and Phut, and their posterity, were neither cursed nor enslaved. Canaan was the victim of tbia malediction, and not Ilam and his posterity. Three fourths of the posterity of Ham had no par ticipation in this imprecation whatever, and that three fourths includes the African ne gro." * * * * The descendants of Ca naan, who alone were cursed, were not Afri ricans, nor were they negroea. The bishop entirely misses his object when he attempts to sanction American negro slavery by vir tue of the curse of Noah. Just as well might Southern kidnappera enslave Bishop- Hopkins and hia posterity aa the negro un der that authority. The bishop exposes his utter ignorance of scriptural facta when be attempts to justify American negro slavery by the Notaic curse on Canaan." Let this suffice as a reply to a portion of the so called " review" of my sermon by you. I submit the following certificate with names attached as proof that I did not say what Little, Harding and Young hare sworn to. - "We the undersigned do hereby certify, that we were present and heard the sermon preached by the Rev. H. Brownscombe iu the M. £. Church of this place on the Sab bath of August 16th, 1863 ; and that t the best of our knowledge he did not state that Bishop Hopkins " misquoted the Bible" in his letter—" Bible view of slavery." SICNXD, T. A. MILLER, J. W. RHOADS, T. L. ROSS, SINTON WILLIAMS, Wm. BARNES, A. F. EASTMAN, P. M. OSTERHOUT, L.H.STEPHENS. This testimony of these gentlemen will be taken without the formality of an oath. Tho absence of Rev. L. Peek from home, accounts for the omission of his name. But let us examine the oath of Little and Co. Mr. Little swears be 44 will not attempt from memory to repeat the very words used" by me, and j-et he does have the hardihood to swear that his u recollection is distinct, thai" I " did affirm that Mr. Hopkins had misquoted the Bible." This is swearing with a vengeance— it is swearing to a thing and not swearing to K after all—swearing that be will not attempt to repeat the very words used by me, and yet he does swear that I did use the very words—" that Mr. Hopkins bad misquoted the Bible and misrepresented what he had quoted." Harding and Young swear to the same. No one sir, save * man destitute of the first principles of honor, magnanimity, and self-respect,- would have rpsbrted t{i' such a ivieax and contemptible subterfuge, when his own character was not involved, You may think that you have won laorals by this ap parent legal strategy, but every honorable man will view it in a different light. It will not tend to multiply your friends in your new location. The loyal people of Biadford County have respect fo* ministers if you have not. My only reply to that prominent member of my churcb at Meahoppen is, that ( did not "at the Brick chapel, speak of Demo crats generally as copperheads The Rer. G. Westfall who was present and heard me at that time, has authorized me to say for him, that I *aid no such thing. It is a fact that there are those who are so sensitive, and who are so addicted at mis representing the statements of ministers, that it is very difficult for them to speak the truth in reference to them. This is to be expected of those who have throws their principles to the wind, and who do not scru ple to spend Sabbaths in electioneering;— who drink whiskey and employ it for the purpose of making political capital, who de nounce Sabbath Schools, and ministers, and all others tare those of like sentiments and affinities with themselves. But let me say to all auch, that they make a grand mistake when they join issue with the ministers of the Gospel* The American cb arches have not so" far derogated in piety and in iuteHi genee, as to have lost confidence in the piety sod integrity of their minister*. And they will continue to stand by them and sustain tbem, despite the opposition raised against them by heartless professors of religion, and wicked end unprineiplac demagogues, and of fice seekers. Mark that prediction my dear sir. Your apology to the public for the ahaeSre language which yon have employed in yoor correspondence with me, was perfectly gra tuitous. They are competent to jadge of the animus of your article*. In conclusion I re mark, 1. That yon have refused to. discuss the question of slavery as proposed by me. 2. You here failed to prove me an aboli tionist. t. Your attempts at conviction of falsehood hsvs been * failure. 4. You have positively refused to give your own private views snd belief on the slavery question. It is not necessary that I should tip the sfiotef, a* yo® have already taken a'Hide. <► As it ix not n* my heart to cherish an ** * feelings even towards an enemy, I their fore wish you honorable success in your new field of labor.
