In publishing the foregoing notice we de sire to add that go far we are informed, it has s # 7 been the aim of this Institution to hold itself from party politics, and confine its entire ef forts to its own proper mission. Even its Ripublican President, who sometimes drags politics into his pulpit) has we believe, hither to abstained faun connecting politics with this enterpaise. In reference to a work of this kind the public c mscience, and the com mon sene of all menwbo have any interest in the relief of human suffering will unhesita tingly endorse this course. To enter upon an argument to show that to connect party politics with organized effort to relieve the suffering and supply the necessiti s of our friends, neighbors, sous and brothers in our armies would prove vastly prejudicial, and ultimately destructive of .he utility of such effort, would be idle y because all men of common sense feel that this is so, in advance of any argument—so true it :s that the cause of humanity, as well as that of religion must always suffer from contact with party politics. Why this is so we do not propose to dis cuss in this connection. The fact itself is one upon which political preachers especitlly may reflect with much advantage to the cause they propose to serve. We are not of those who believe that those who aie called to preach the gospel have r?o civil duties to perform in connection with the administration of the government. It is not only their right, but their duly to vote ;be cause our system of government refers ail po litical vnestions to the decision of tho whole people ;and no man, strictly, has a right to shirk his share of the re-ponsit>ility. Our theory of government contemplates that ev ery vote shall fie tho honest ex; onent of each voters sentiments, whatever they may be and not of the sentiments of any other man, or set of men. and holds him responible for such expression to no n.an, or set of men. Even if bis political opinions are wrong, it is none the less his duty to vote in accordance with ' them. Upon no other principle can a govern- i merit like curs urvive. But this is the only civil duty in connec tion with the administration of the govern ment, except that of payment of taxes' that the theory of our government imposes upon 4he ministers of the gospel • ami this only because they are men, as well as ministers. But while human natvre shall continue to Ve what it 1 as always been, the preacher can not go beyond this—cannot avail himself of the opportunity afforded by the presence of his audience assembled for divine worship to engage in the discussion ofquestions of party politic*, without destroying his own useful ness, crea'ipg bitterness and division in his church, driving out of it for the time (and per hap permanen'ly) all purely religous emotion and -entirr.cnT, and giving to the things of this world endure prtc fence < ver the demands of Eternity. No matter upon what artful pretext the snlject may bo introduced, its presence in the pulpit is more fatal to the spiritual welfare of these who approve and ei'jov It. than to that of those who lament •and denounce it, already, trr pl.ict'3 the for mer are'beginning to regard tlioe ministers who abstain from pditical preaching with enmity, because such abstinence is an im plied rebuke to those whj indulge in and n;> pland the practice. Sthmre! that men who can readily per ceive the mischiefs th?,t wmiM inevitably rs sult from tbe connection of party politics with tbe stupendous work of the Sanitary Commission in the cause of Humanity, can n"f also perceive the mischiefs that have followed and rre still following the fatal al liance between polities and Religion -that the same cause that woutd bring peril and death to the cause of Humanity, must prove equal ly fatal to tbe cause of Religion. Strange, that men who have devoted t bemelves to the service of Him who scourged the traffick ers from the Temple, should so forget the mission of their master as t> bring into His Sanctuary the stormy passions that surges ■i without. t 53T*do you indorse a scoundrel when you make your mark upon his back. Could the Democratic Party "restore ihc Union, | The remarkable article which we, this I morning, republish from the Urehmond ex vniiner. depicting in strong colars the suffer : ings of the South' naturally provokes the I question, why it is that a people so sensible j of the discouragements of ther situation are not induces to abandon a sinking caKse and i resume their old federal relations, There can be but one answer ; —the statesmanship { of our government is not equal to its military success. War itselfis only an instrument j It is not an end, but the means for at to taining an end. Its opject is to bring such a pressure to hear upon a hostile com , inunity thac he will be willing to submit | reasonable terras of peace. Few wars in his tory have inflicted such havoc, or carried ' such desolation, as the one in which we are ' engaged ; and in the natural course of things, judged by ordinary human experience, the | victorious party should be able to conclude a ! safe, honorable, and lasting peace. That it | has neither the ability nor the expec'ation of doing so, on its face, a proof that it is une ! qual to the situation. But would the Democratic . party., if it stood in the hoes in the administration, do any better ? This is a grave question, be cause, on the answer which the majority of the people will this year return to it, hang* undeniably the future destiny of the country. If. is true that, in any answer which may now be attempted to this question, our rea soning must be more or less hypothetical; but it seems to us thai the case is in some aspects so clear that we may nevertheless proceed upon very solid ground. On one side we have facts and experience to eo upon; for its incontestable that wo have inflicted suffering upon the Southern people to bring them to terms, if this were an ordinary war, and our nation authorities had tho ordinary sagacity, prudence, and suvoir fnire of a vic torious government. But what reason, is there for thinking that the Democratic party, 'fin power, would do any better? The case seems to us so plain that it is almost to aigtie it. If, the re!at ; ve milatary situation being precisely what it is, the lamented DOVGLAS were alive and were now President; if Mr CCSHING, or a tnan of epual mental resour ces, were Secretary of State, and General SCOT L Seeretrry of War, wo do not be! it-re there are fen men in the country whose opin ions is wor'h regarding that would not ex pect peace and a restor d Union within three months. If there could ho such a change of administration, or one at all resembling it the mass of the people, in both section?, would be exalted at once into a sfa f e of hopeful expectation. They would look for an early peace, a restored Union, and such a general and sincere pasificalion as would ren der it safe to reduce our crimes tc a moder ate peace estab'ishment. The present ditfi- culty is, not that v.e have not sufficiently crippled and humbled the South for victory to bear its appropriate fruits, but that this administration is politically incapable of making a just, magnanimous, and satisfactory peace. But why could a Democratic administra tion deal with this problem more successfully than that of Mr* I/i cob.? The reasons are various. In the first place, the Democratic party has never given any countenance to the twenty vears'cruade against southern instiu lions kept up by the aboliti mists . The South is in negotiating with a Democratic abrnin istration,would have no fears of being entrapp sd into a false po-ition and circumvented by peifid\*. They had some experience of the good faith of Mr. LINCOLN and Mr. SEWARD in the spring of 1861, when Judge CHMPIIKM,, 'of the Supreme Court, was the intenne diary between the Soutii and the government with the knowledge and privity of Judg- NELSON of this state. The war would probab iv have been 4voided had it not been for the string radical pressure upon Mr. LINCOLN, and the faithlessness of his Secretary cf State. Even if the administration had adhered to the con stitutional policy professed in Mr. LINCOLN'S inaugural, the South would naturally recoil from an attempt to arrange this controversy with the same officials who deceived them with false professions in the very crisis ot these difficulties. But Mr. LINCOLN has mode peace impossi j ble unless the South will consent to the de ! struction of the most valuable part of their j property, and the subversion of their indus- j trial sy>tem. Whatever may be the cash I value of this property, every <1 .liar of it is an argument aganst sub uission addressed by Mr. LINCOLN to the self interest of the South. The southern people know that the Democratic party does not approve of tins policy ; that they have steadily protested against it as a flagrant violhtion of the Con stitution. Tf the Democratic part}' were in power, the question would he simply be tween further resistance on the one hand, and submission to the same Constitution un der which they formcly lived and prospered, on the other. Whatever forfeitures have been operated by the necessary result of the nar, would he upon by the courts in ob hence to established precedents, and not determined by the infuriated pass iur.s of innovating abolitionists. The South, in submitting to the Constitution as the Con stitntion ha always heretofore been under stood, could calculate pretty nearly the legai elfeLt of their submtssi >n. But when they are upon to. first, surrender the most valuable of their property, and then sub mit, without guarantees, to whatever a hos tile and heated fanaticism may think fit to inflict, it is not surprising that they prefer to endure tlx? evils and Dy the chances of con tinued resistance. If the Democratic party were in power the popular and capable general* now in retire ment would be immediately pi.ieed iu com mand ; and, in the general rejoicing that would fallow, volunteers would tlock to the service, and we should be in the best possible position to make a vigorous war or a just peace, according as the rebels she uld elect. With a more formidable military iront on our side, and nothing repaired hot submission to the Constitution on theirs, the inauguration of a new Administration would he the dawn of peace. The Union would rise after its.long setting with more than its old effulgence. '• So sinks the day-star in the ocean bed, And yet anon repairs his drooping bend, And tricks bis beams, and with new spangled ore iiatues in the forehead of the morning sky." Foul, Festering Corruption. The following from the New York Journal oj Commerce appears to greatly exercise the leading organ of the Administration, so much so as to unsettle its nerves: "There was never an Administration in Washington under which fraud was carried on as openly and boldly as now. The tnil. Hons that are the plu rW of the present army of hangers on will never be counted. Ther e is no end to the terrible revelations. Nor does the trouble stop with the mere robbing of the public purse. The most atrocious crime are perpetrated with the stolen money, and the people are growing used to the recit als. Legislators are bought and sold in Pennsylvania, New York and elsewhere* Elections are fraudulently carried. The machinery of political parties is turned evflry where to the private account bf individual office-seekers or money seekers. The taint is spreading through the entire body politic) Men look calmly now on crimes from which they would have shrunk two years or ihree years ago— Men think on the whole that it is a good when the Administration carry an election by shipping home a few t'nousand selected voters. Men chuckle over some po litical ruse in which a Legislature is bought, for money. *** **** * * * No one seems to think that frn.ud, public rbery, is a very great crime. We meet daily in the streets, nightly at receptions ami grand assemblies, men who are known to lie fattening on plunder, 'but v/hosu social posi lion seems wholly unaffected by the fact." Notwithstanding what the organ says to the contrary truer bit'. was nevir presented. Every intelligent man in Washington, in the least acquainted with the modus operandi of government knows the truth of the above statinent; and the Administration or gins, who are paid to defend those in power, squirm as they JE.ay, cannot get away from it W hep the tune comes that a man can write an; speak; the truth boldly without the tea,, of bemg jerked off to the Oid Capitol and 1m prisoned there as an enemy of our Govern" merit, a history of Governmental frauds and corruption will be-written that will astound thejcivilized world. Tho New York Times, a journal of Repub lican proclivities, in discussing this matter says: " Turn which way we will, we meet with accounts of little but "enormous fraud." per petrated by Government officials. Fir-t it. is a paymaster; then it is a quartermaster; anon it is a confidential clerk m the Treasury Department, or a subordinate in somo navy yard, who undertakes to fiil ln< private purse at the public expense. Awry atmosphere of dishonesty pervades the localities dev .ted to the disbursement of Government moneys, and as nobody seems to meet with the pun ishment due to such crimes, the culpability of one party only stimulates the cupidity of other parties, and t he game of swindling goes on ad infinitum.

The "first gun" f>r Mr. LINCOLN, vhicli was fired by the New Hampshire Repnb iean in their state convention last Wednesday, has not had any echoes among the members of that party in this neighborhood. Indeed it ha< had n< more effect than trie "buncombe speech Mr. ARNOLD deliverd in the House a : ew days since "from a pile of mannscript upon, the top of a bat." -'Honest Old Abe" is very fond of a j >ke at other people's expense, but this New Hampshire nomination is clearly one at his expense.

Much as the Canadians profes- to dislike the Yankees, they have a weakness for green backs, and the high boon ties were too innch for their loyalty to the English crown. It is known that there arc mote Canadians in our armies than there arc deserters and "skedadlers" from the draft in Canada. f e learn froin the telegraphic news published in the city papers that the people of the South are delighted with Abe Lin coln's proposed amnesty, and are preparing to acc q)t the terms by wholesale. The satm government organ liar, thirty- sev'U tunes an nounced the certain destruction of Fort Sum ter. and yet that monster still blazes away at our iron clads and prevents them from pass lug up to the city: It willomt do to contradict these reports.

If the telegraphs were confined to the truth there would be no necessity for such an or der. It is doubtful whether there would be any to publish.

This gallant regiment composed chietly of volunteers from Montgomery, Berks, Lycorn ing, Wyoming and Juniata, has been under the command of Col. John J. Brooke, and has now wo understand, re enlisted for the war. They are now under a furlough cf thirty days, when they are to report at Camp Cur tin, at Ilarrisburg, and to be recrui'ed to a full regiment. They now number about 2GB, out of tlie 1, 00'> able, stalwart men they ] counted when the regiment first marched. . Small as is the number remaining. It is not ! surprising when we remembi r that they have : seen every fight and have taken an active part in every battle, from Fair Oaks, through • lie seven day's fight, at Antietam, where 1 Mc Clolian, having gathered up the fragments 'of the army, covered himself and his men : with glory, and drove the invaders from the ; borders of Pennsylvania. Then they were in the bloodv and awful battle of Fredericks burg, where the heroic boys say they were | led into a slaughter pen by Central Burnside. j Then they were at Chancellorsville, under Hooker, and next upon our own soil, at Get -1 tysburg, they clothed themselves with honor, ' and with others drove General Lee and his ; shattered forces from Pennsylvania sal. We ; record these deeds of a brave Pennsylvan : ia regiment, as an act of justice, and cora ; mend the gallant little remnant to the at i tention of our State authorities. One of the Captains in the 521, Captain S. T. Piatt, ts descended from the old Brady stock of Western Poim.-ylvapia—his mother was Mary Brady, a niece-of General Hugh Brad}* —and it is high praise to say that he has proven worthy of his origin. Captain Piatt was in the three months' service with General Pat terson, and was honorably discharged. He then helped to* raise a c unpiny, was attached to the regiment of Colonel Brooke, and has I been in the service ever since.

A Braggart Shirking. The Senato of Pennsylvania has a Repub lican majority of one, but on account of the sense of a Republican member, who is a pris ' oner at Richmond, the Senate is unable to ; organize the Senate by the election of Repub lican officers, Morrow B. Lowry, a well known local Republican politician and a great braggart, offered a resolution to ap point a committee to wait on Jeff. Davis and ask him to liberate Major White, in order to organize the Pennsylvania Legislature ; but on an amendment being substituted making Mr. Lowry the committee, he wilted, skirk ed, backed down and begged to be excus ed. 1 INTERNAL REVENUE —lt inay not be gen enerally known that the Commissioner of Internal Revenue has decided that a promi-m --ry note for the payment of twenty dollars or less is subject to st amp duty by the act of March 3d, 18G3, under the head of u luland Bills of Exchange.,, The penalties for viola ting tie stamp act is from §JO to §2OO, and in addition notes, &c„ are worthless without the proper stamp being affixed.

STRIKE AMONG THE CLERUV.—A strike of the clergy, for higher salaries to meet the cost of living, is being agitated in New England and seems imminent. The majority of conn try pastors do not average more than §OOO a year, and this is not equivalent, as prices now are, to §4OO previous to war—a sum whollv inadequate to support them at the present time. We don't know whether the strikers can adduce any scriptural precedent to sust tain them.
