Dr. Chambers Serin m-
At the request of several subscribers, we
publish to-day, on our first page a Thanks
giving discourse recently delivered by that
eminent Divine and advocate of the cause :
of tempcrauce, Dr. John Chambers, of i
Philadelphia.
We comirr-nd this sermon to the careful i
perusal of all our readeis, and especially to j
such of them as have from week, to week.
' !
listened to the unceasing ding dongof'.bose i
self-styled ministers of the Gospel, who, by !
attempting to preach politics and religion, •
at the same time, have signally failed in i
both. They will find in its piain truths so >
planly told an antidote for all the trothy !
nonsense and political rant to which they ,
have been treated for years
These politico—theological shysters, who j
expect by preaching niggerisui, to follow
Landon into the Senate thence into the !
coffers of the Penna. R. R. Co.—may prof j
it too, by reading it. For ourselves we
will say, that while we caunoFLut endorse
the truths contained in Dr. Chambers' ser
mon vve think that perhaps the place and
occasion for their expression may have
been ill chosen. We have always doubt
ed and stiil do doubt, the propriety of the
introduction of political paitisan subjects
into the pulpit, dt has certainly resulted
in great injury to the church ; and in posi
tive degradation to the politics of the
country. Instead of a ministry whose pre- j
cepts fall like living coals upon the h arts
of men, and whose example leads them in
to the paths of truth and righteousness ; j
WJ ace be.j2t by x swarm of oorrn >rayts, ■
spawned upon the county by infidel, fanatical
% New England, eating the very substanance
out of the land, and preaching niggcrism
under the c'.oakof religion.—A class of men !
who know as little of politics as religion,
and not enough of either, to swear by or
pray with —Lazy in everything except
horse jockeying, collecting tithes, and
Stirring up strife, hatred and contention
among the people.
LEGISLATURE.
The State Legislature mot at Uari isburg ;
on Tuesday last, and organised by the se
lection of '"loyal" official-*; in both Houses-
After the usual preliminaries the following
message was read ;
° ' i
GENTLEMEN : the toils and anxiety of the '
last four years have, tiom time to time !
brought on the severe attcks of disease I
From the severe of these I ain slowly :
struggling, to wards recovery. I find that
to give my constitution an opportunity to
continue thi* struggle it is absolutely nec- !
cessary that I should, without delay, make
a short sea voyage, and sojourn in a milder
clunate.
Under the pressure of this necessity I g
to the Island of Cuba. It is my hope and
intention to return in good season to wel- j
come you on your arrival at the seat cf go- |
▼ernment, but if it should be fund indis- i
pensiblethat my visit to Cuba should be j
prolonged to the latter paitof February,',
this message will serve to lay before vou j
the cause of my absenco at the commeKce
ment of your session. In this case 1 feel !
sure that \\ u will adopt such course as shall '
" consist with your wisdom, and with the af 1
fectionate consideration which I have al- j
ways received at your hands. It would,
however, not become me to forget that the
issues of life arc in the hands of the One a- j
love all, and that many have found death 1
' waiting for them on the foreign shore to!
which they have been sent in starch oC
lttalth.
Should such be my fate, I shall draw my
last breath with a sense of thedeepest grat
itude to the people of the Commonwealth
and their Representatives, for the cheeiful,!
manlv, and unfailing support which they |
have given during the last four years to the 1
general cause of the right, and to me in mv 1
efforts to man tarn it : andwitfi a prayer of l
thankfulness to Almighty God, that lie
strengthened till the end of the cruel rebel- •
lion, and thought me worthy to be permit-!
Ed to continue that lime as Chief Magistrate
of the people of Pennsylvania, and, to have '
my f.anse connected in that relation with
auch-a people during such a time, ought to
be enough to fill the highest measure of
any man's ambition. AN.DE.EW G. CCUTIS. '

Ililliflicker Snieksnacker, a Teutonic
vender of sour krout, wooden combs, crude
! cabbage, stripped mittens, cotton suspen
ders and such 'diddle dings'' with true pa
triotic zeal left bis home in La Crosse at
the commencement of the war, and enlist
ed as a slop grocery keeper behind the
; sutler's tent, on the Potomac. When he
went away it was with the intention of ma
king some uionish, if it took all summer,
and nobly did he fight it out on his line.
llow he did it is best told as he told it to
I us on his return, last week :
"You see, Mr. Bumroy, der dram beets,

Common weal tii v. Eck
i This case which has just been tried tn
. the Court of Quarter Sessions iu this Coun
; ty, is a very important case, and one which
j the voters of Columbia County should re
member. The facts a- oorven are asfolows:
; HXNUT Fnv, a citizen of Roaringcrcek
i township at tuelast election offered his bal
j lot, but Charles C. Eck, caused its rejection
j on the ground of bis being a non-reporting
j diaft. d man, whereupon this prosecution
I was commenced.
1 The Judge declared very distinctly that
i u was r.ot the province of an election
board to try cases of desertion, and that
i the act of Congiess conferred on them no
J such right. In other words, the failing to
report of a drafted man was no ground for
the rejection of his vote. • .
The counsel for the defendant, Mr.
CI ok, also admitted that deserted from the
mihtary service of the United States was
no ground for the rejection of a ballot,
and said he always maintained that opin
ion. Ihe sole ground on which he rested
( his uefence was the defendant's ignorance
of the law.— Cobirnhbj .Democrat.
i
jt-cT " Mr Speaker,"' said the new mem
ber, rising, "we cannot prize too dearly the
rights of freemen. They have been trans
mitted to us by our fathers as a rich lega
cy, and palsied be the hand of the one who
would refuse to acknowledge or maintain
them. Amongst these l ight!-, Mr. Speaker,
I is the right of volition, of doing as we
please. Every man, sir, should do as he
pleases, and if he docs qpt, he should be
, compelled to."
Women have been detected in smug
glin whiskey from Canada in cans made in
the shape of babies which hold four or five

Wild Doings.
A correspondent of the New York
Times gives an accoHut af the reasons for
!- the removal of Brevet I>nt;ad;cr General
Wild, Massachusetts, from the superinten
i dence of the Freedmcn's Burcan in Geor-!
. gia, as given by General Stedman, military
; commander of that department He says: j
. j "He (Wild) was, no doubt, an honest :
11 and conscientious man. But there was no !
i practicabilty in liira. He proposed to re- j
. dress tho multiplicity of slumbering wrongs j
, which had been spent for a century on
! the anfurtnnate blacks , he was inclined to '
instantaneously square for the innumerable
j cruelties inflicted upon this oppressed peo
: pie for an age in fact, he falliacously and
. mischicvcously went to work to educate
■ and elevate the black, man with an utter
[ disregard of the feelings and rights of the
1 white race, who, at least, had claims, if
! ' not as equals*
"He mounted a body of black men, who
rode at large over the country and com
' i mited excesses of the most infamous cahr
-1 acter. The people generally suffered at
' the expense of every man who had a black
1 i face A perfect reign of terror was rife;
c everything bccaniq unsettled ; and an im
: | placable hatred between the two races was
L : the natural offspring. He not only did not
' cooperate with the commanding general,
: but he zealously worked to clog his etl'orts
in all particulars.
"Two outrageous acts of Gen. Wild wer
' j brought to notice. For some alleged reason
' 1 or other, he caused an old gentleman
' | weighing over two hundred pounds to be
; tied up by the thumbs until the entire flesh
: was torn from the bones Only a few
j days bfeore Gen. Wild was relieved he ar
1 ; rested two of the fust ladies of the coun
! try, and had theiq stripped naked and cx
j amincd by two colored women, an indigni.
j ty I never beard of before during the war.
"When General Tdson took charge the
j direst disorder prevailed, and nearly sixty
thousand indolent blacks were being kept
and supported by the Federal comraision
He issued an order, the enforcement of
which set matters right at once. Through- |
out the w hole State General Tilson has but
ittle over a thousand paupers, and most
of these are sick in hospitals. He says
that he is bound that all able-bodied negroes
shall be mad# to work."'
Blue Democrats.
1
A good many Democrats now- a-days
. seem to have the blues, and they go around |
. declaring that "all is lost" —that republi
can institutions are buried forever Ac., Ac.
1 and of course, that there is no further use '
i of trying to combat the enemies of Demo
| cratic principles. Now, we have had red
, Republicans and black Republicans, but
, ! these men are what might be properly
I termed Hue Democrats, They are. going
1 to give up and let the Abolitionists run
l over them forever. — Here is a virgin coun - j
. try,not yet halt-peopled and simply because
the old Tory party, under the alias of" free
dom shriekers"', have got mto power, they
j may imagine, forsooth, that mankind is go- j
> 1 ing to give up the vital principles of lie- j
i mocracy. Nonsense! men and brethren ! ■
! Principles an mate, inherent, at:d no mat- j
ter how crushed down for the time being.!
they must come to the surface.—Reader,
it depends upon you, yes,you, individually,;
how soon they may arise from their j
Every man liH his influence, and if every j
person who goes croaking about that "De-;
mocracy is played out' —"tin t iliere is no >
use to try," &c ,would take hold like a man, j
talk to his neighbor, who may he a deluded,
ignorant, but well-meaning "Republican,"
get him to read a Democratic paper or
document, or arouse and stimulate Demo
crats, instead of discouraging them, wc
[ #
should very toon see a great change in the
face of affairs, and have a real Democratic
revival. So far as their influence goes,
there is but little difference between*a blue
Democrat and a black Republican. Let
Democrats throw off this croaking. In-j
stead of meeting your Republican neighbor
with a long face, as much as to say "all is
lost," tell liirn to look out for tho biggest j
fight ahead he ever dreamed of and that j
if he thinks you and your party arc going ■
to surrender this government to the negro- j
equalizers, that lie is the most mistaken
man ajivj. This will set tin in thinking, j
It will do no more—arouse and inspirit the
I Democracy, and that is half of the battle.
Two-thirds of the people are against the
Abolitionists, aad yet Democrats get the
blues! Away with the thought! Let us
give them a little more grape ! — l)ay Book.

the amount of suffering experienced by a person in
our situation to have abuse and contumely heap

geance against us —to sit calmly by, and hear, with
a smiling face, the rosy lips of beaut ful women call
us all sorts of names, accuse us of all sorts of petty

Of blissful sleep's care soothing hours,
Death breaths upon the pleasant streams,

And in an hour they pass awny,
Leiving a desert waste behind,
While ruin gloats on their decay,
Unceasing pleasures thus to find.
