PITTSBURGH, MARCH 22, 1862
The Army,
The whole military forces of the United
States are, by the Constitution, under the
direction of the President. This officer,
however, having a very large amount of
business to supervise, has, during most of
our National history, (there have been some
three or four short periods of exception,)
entrusted the command of the army to the
superior General. Gen. Scott was long at
its head ; and on his retirement, the posi
tion, with the approbation of the President
and Cabinet, fell to Gen. M'Clellan. The
ability with which Gen.-Scott inaugurated
the plan of operations for the present war,
and the skill, energy, foresight, and power
of combination 'possessed by. Gen. McClel
lan, are manifest in the size and equip
ment of the army, the military pupplies,
and harmonious, effective and happy work
ing of the whole,'from the Atlantic to the
Rocky Mountains, and from- the Potomac
to the Gulf.
On the accession of Gen. McClellan to
the supreme command, it was his desire to
still retain his position as Chief of the
army of the Potomac. This he could well
do during the Fall and Winter, when field
operations were suspended but could not
so well attend to it when it would become
neoesSary to conduct actual warfare, on a
scale so extensive as that embraced in his
Department,
The President hence actively assumes
the position which belongs to him virtually.
We are not, however, to suppose that he
will , attend to any thing beyond the most
general orders, and that these will be, given
in conference with the heads of the military
departments. He will be a bond of union,
and give harmony and consistence to the
On the 27th of January the President
issued his first general order, in which he
directed that the army movements should
commence on the 22d of February, in all
the Departments. On the Bth of March,
the second general order was issued. This
directed Gen. McClellan to divide the army
of the Potomac into five corps, under Gene.
McDowell, Sumner, Heintzelman, Xeys,
and Banks. The third order is as follows :
1
EXECUTIVE MANSION,'
WASHINGTON, March 11, 1862.
President's War Order, No. a—Major
General McClellan having personally taken
the field at the head of the army of the Po
tomac'
until otherwise ordered, he is re
lieved from the command of the other
military departments, he retaining com
mand of the Department of the Potomac.
Ordered, further, that the two Depart
ments now under the respective commands
of Generals Halleck and. Hunter, together
with so much of that under—General Buell
as lies West of a North and South line in
definitely drawn _through Knoxville, Ten
nessee, be consolidated and designated the
Department of the Mississippi ; and that,
until otherwise ordered, MajOr General
Halleck have command of said Depart
ment.
Ordered, also, that the country West of
the Department of the Potomac and East
of the Department of the Mississippi be a
Military Department, to be called the
Mountain Department, and that the same
be commanded by Major General Fremont.
That all the commanders of Departments,
after the receipt of this order by them, re
spectively report severally and directly to
the Secretary of War, and that prompt, full
and frequent reports will be expected of
all and each of them.
[Signed ABRAII4.M LINCOLN.
This arrangement is likely to give great
efficiency to our military operations. Each
of these Departments is larger than a King
dom in Europe. Gen. McClellan has over
150,000 men under his command. Gen.
Halleok has nearly, if not quite 200,000.
Gen. Fremont has only the troops in Wes
tern Virginia. and Eastern Kentucky. He
must have large accessions, as his field is
to become one of vast importance. Gene.
McClellan, Fremont and Halleek, are the
only Major -Generals in the regular army.
The others are Generals of volunteers.
Recent Successes.
Our victory at Pea Ridge, Arkansas,
which we recorded last week, was brilliant,
important, and costly. Battles must be
fought; and when fought, we should win
them, though the cost be great. A ,few
such battles as Donelson and Pea Ridge
give us many victories without "a battle.
They inspire the enemy with terror:
A most important victory has been gained
at New Madrid, in Southern Missouri, on
the Mississippi. Gen. Pope landed his
army above Cairo, and marched inland,
coming in at the rear of the rebels. He
had taken with him some lirge guns, which`
he planted on the river below-New Madrid,
threatening, to cut off their retreat. The
enemy, finding that a fight would be hope
less, took• to , their river, craft, on the night
of the 18th, and escaped, leaving cannon,
camp equipage, and military stores. They
went, probably; to Island No. 10, which is
a short distance aboVe.
Island No. 10 was, however, no Bevil:
place. On the 16th, Corn. Foote left Cairo,
with eight gunboats, eight mortar boats,
and some transports, and commenced the
bombardment of the island. The rebels
had heavy batteries, and abotit 15,000 men.
SAVANNATI, Tenn., on the Tennessee
river, near the Southern line of the State,
yielded without a battle. Gen. Smith,
with 'the army of Gen. Grant, is =in com
mand. A division went West, to Purdy,
and occupi94 the railroad. Ere rinW 'it is
probable that Gen. Smith has advanced into
Northern Alabama, and seized the railroad
which connects Charleston with Memphis.
Memphis is certainly in great danger.
Randolph, some sixty miles above Mem
phis, is a strong place, but cannot long
stand against our gunboats and mortars,
especiallyns we have an army in its rear.
In the East also, success crowns our
arms. Gen. Burnside quietly moved from
Albemarle Sound to Pamlico, and thence
to the mouth of the Neuse river, where
stands the beautiful city of Newborn.. This
place was fortified and - gnarded, but it
yielded after a hard fought battle.
Let there be no boasting. We are by
far the stronger party. We lost at first,
because we went into battle in a flurry and
unprepared. Now we go to work deliber
ately, it is our duty to conquer ; and He
who directs events favors - our cruse.
The Blockade.
The blockade of "the Southern ports, by
our navy, is at last fully and honestly re
cognised by the English. Earl RUSSEL,
in a letter to Lord LYONS, dated the 15th
February, says that the fact of ships having
successfully run the blockade, does , not pre
vent the blockade from being effective: and
he argues that a neutral State ought to ex
ercise great caution with regard to a de
facto blockade, and ought , rnakto disregard
it unless the power of the blockade should
be abused.
This is rational.' No blockade can pos
sibly be as close as a cork stopper. The
legal requisition is, not that it shall be
perfeet, but "effective;' not a mere paper
blockade—a decree—but a blockade main
tained by an actual force, abiding in or
near the -Port. Stich' blockade we have
maintained, with a steadines, wakefulness,
and rigidity excelling any thing, consider
ing its extent, which is known in history.
IJ:flag Btins,
The Fight at Newborn, N. C.
In the absence of official documents, we give
the following from Baltimore dispatches :
Our troops, under Gen. Burnside, landed on
Thursday evening, near the mouth of Swann
Creek, on the West side of the Neuse rive, fifteen
miles below Newbern. Owing to the dense fog,
the naval vessels did not participate in the fight.
Early on Friday morning the fight commenced.
Our troops advanced along a road skirted on
the West side by the railroad and a dense swamp.
All
,along the river side were a series of batter
ies, Which were taken by our troops, one after
another. After some bloody hand to hand con
tests, our troops were divided into three brigades,
under the command of Gene. Reno,Foster and
Parke. We advanced gradually, the enemy de
serting their guns, until we reached a line of
earth-works extending across the, road, from the
river to the .swamp, on the West, 'a distance of
some two miles. These earth-works were very,
strong. They were located about two miles
South of Newbern, and between these and the
oity ran the Trent river.
The county road and the railroad both passed
through these works, andl crossed. into the city
by bridges., In front of these works the rebels
had felled a large number of trees, forming an
almost impenetrable abattis. 'Here the flying
rebels rallied, and made a, desperate stand. Our
'brave fellows fought until all their ammunition
was spent. The works were finally taken at the
point of the bayonet.
The rebels attempted to fire the town on their
retreat, but were prevented by the citizens, who'
extinguished the flames as fast as they were
started by the soldiers.
None off our generals, nor any staff officers;
were either killed or wounded.
• We lost about one hundred - killed and four
hundred wounded, mostly belonging to the New
England regiments.
The enemy's works; six miles below •Newbern;
were definded by a 'force about ten thousand
strong, and had twenty-one guns posted.
The fight was desperate. Our troops, after
nearly four hours of hard fighting, drove the
rebels out of all of their positions, capturing
three light batteries of field artillery, forty-six
heavy siege guns, large stores of fixed ammu
nition, three thousand small arms, and two hun
dred prisoners, including one Colonel, two Cap
tains and four Lieutenants.
The enemy left a large number of dead on the
field. They escaped by cars tq, Goldsborough,
burning the bridges over. Trent and Claremont
rivers.
Attack upon island No. 10.—First Day's Pro•
Wings.
WASHINGTON, March 18.—The following dis
patch was received by' the Secretary of the Navy,
dated Cairo, March 18:
News was received at nine o'clock this morn
ing, froni the Flag-ship Benton, dated Island No.
10, March 17, as follows :
We had hard work this afternoon with the up
per battery of all at this point. Only four shots
struck us out of the five forts of the enemy.
One shot after striking the4per deck twice and
the lower deck once, breaking some half-a-dozen
beams, finally lodged in the Flag Officer's desk,
depositing itself in the drawer as quietly as pos
sible. We have battered the forts all to pieces,
dismounting one gun; but 'night came upon us
and we had to leave without finishing the work,
but to-morrow we will go at it again. A rifled
gun burst on board the St. Louis; and killed two
men outright; mortally wounded two and slight
ly wounded ten others. These are the only cas
ualties, The mortars are doing well.
[Signed] A. M. PENNOCK,
Senior Officer.
The rebels have six distinct batteries on the
Tennessee shore. The enemy are very strongly
fortified. They have large numbers of troops
on the mainland.' The, shells 'from the mortars
fell in the enemy's intrenohments every time.
Capture of New Madrid.
St. Lows, March 15. Gen... Pope, in a die=
patch to Gen. Halleck, says: " Our success at
New Madrid, has been even greater than report
ed, twenty-five pieces of heavy . artillery, twen
ty-four pounders and rifled, thirty-two batteries,
field artillery, and an immense quantity of fixed
ammunition; several thousand small arms; hun
dreds of boxes of musket cartridges ; three hun
dred mules and horses; tents for an army of
twelve thousand men, and an immense quantity
of other property, of not less value than a mil-,
lion of dollars, have fallen into our hands. The
men only escaped.
• The enemy's whole force,was demoralized, and
dispersed in-a swamp, on the4pposite side of the`
river, abandoning their works so hurriedly ae to
leave all :the_ baggage of the officers, the knap
sacks of the melt, their dead unburied, their sup
pers on the tables,. and candles burning in their
tents. A furious thunder storm, which raged all
night, enabled them to get across the river with—
out being discovered.
Our heavy battery was established during the
night of the 12th; within eight - hundred-yards of
the enemy's works, and opened at daylight on
the 13th, just thirty-four hours after the guns
,were delivered to as at Cairo.
During the whole day, yesterday, our lines
were drawn closer around their works, under a
furious fire of sixty." pieces of artillery. The
fear of an assault on their works at daylight in
duced them to flee precipitately during the night.
Many prisoners have beentaken, and the colors
of several Arkansas regiments.
Our loss is about fifty killed and wounded.
The Sailing of Porter's lortarFloot.
Naw-Yosx, March 18. —Advices from Key
West, of the 10th inst., report the sailing of
Porter's mortar fleet. •
March 12.—Hovsn.---The House passed the
bill amendatory of the eighth section of the act,
to promote the efficiency of the navy, so as to
read: "The hours Of Tabor, and rate of wakes
in the navy yards, shall conform, as near as is
consistent with the public interests, to the pli
cate establishments in , tbe immediate vicinity of
the respective yards, to be regulated by the com
mandants, subject to the revision and approval
of the Secretary. Of the Navy.
'Mr. Ashly, from the Committee on Territories,
reported a bill providing temporary provisional
governments over the districts'of the country in
Congress.
PRESBYTERIAN BANNER-SATURDAY. MARCH 22, 1862.
rebellion against the United States. The
dent is authorized to take possession and insti
tute such governments with the aid of the mili
tary and naval power. Governors, eto., are to
be appointed, and legislatures assembled, Courts
established, to continue till the people form new
State governments.
Mr. Cravens, of Ind., from the same Commit
tee, submitted the minority report, which takes
the ground that the above bill provides that Con
gress has 'power to exclude certain States from
the Union, and hold them in colonial dependence
and vassalage till they-are readmitted; in other
words, that the Union may be dissolved by an act
of Congress—an assumption as absurd and as
fatal as that a State can annul its allegiance to
the Union by State action. The bill, further, is
impraoticable in its details, and as incendiary
and equally repulsive to the principles of justice
and humanity as to the Constitution.
Mr. Harding, of Ky., also submitted the mi
nority views of the Committee, saying that there
is abundant reason for believing that the armed
rebellion will be speedily subdued and put down.
The bill, at a single blow, strikes at the exist
ence of eleven States. It is in effect an ordi
nance of Secession., It strikes down the Consti
tution and dissolies the Government. It is in
consistent with sound policy, utterly at war with
religion and humanity, and hence the minority
enter their most earnest and solemn protest
against it.
Mr. Pendleton, of Ohio, said, that the bill be
ing clearly unconstitutional, he moved to lay it
on the table. Carried—yeas 65, nays 66.
The /louse then went into Committee of the
Whole on the State of the Union on the tax bill
—Mr. Colfai in the Chair.
Mr. Morrill, of Vermont, of the Ways and
Means Committee, said they. had, authorized the
issue of bonds and notes in all forms during the
present Congress to the amount of nine hundred
and fifty millions of dollars. The appropria
tions for 1862 are nearly five hundred and•fifteen
millions. If the war continues till 1863, our in
debtedness will be nine oaten hundred millions
of dollars. To pay the interest on this will re
quire sixty or seventy millions annually. Our or
dinary expenses cannot, under any circumstances,
be less than sixty millions .'a year, and the mil
itary establishment, after , .the rebellion, will
likely require twenty-five millions beyond that •
amount. The financial measures in contempla
tion will yield even more than is necessary te
meet the wants of the Treasury.
SENATE.—The joint resolution from the House,
tendering the aid of the United States to certain
States, etc., being the President's emancipation
resolution, was referred to the Committee on. the
Judiciary. '
On motion of Mr. Wilson, of MSAS:, the bill to
define the pay and emoluments of the army was
taken up.
The motion to strike out the ninth section
which provides a deduction of ten per cent, on
all salaries paid by the Government, -excepting
that of the President, dm, was rejected. The
bill was then-passed.
March 14.—Housz.—Mr. Campbell, from the
Special Committee, reported the . Racific Railroad
bill, and it was made the speeial order one week
from Tuesday next.
SENATE.—Mr. Harris, of N. Y., introduced a
bill to confiscate the property of rebels, which
was referred.
Mr. Wilson, of Mass., from the Military Com
mittee, reported a joint resolution authorising
the President to assign the command of troops
on the same field or division without regard to
seniority. It also gives the President the power
to' dismiss any officer from the service, if he
sees fit to do so, without the finding of a. Court
martial.
Mr. Sherman, of Ohio, objected to the latter
portion of the resolution, as giving the Presi
dent too much power.
Mi. McDougal, of Cal., also objected.
The resolution was laid over.
Mr. Hale, of N. Y., introduced a bill to au
thorize the, building f a steam, iron-clad Ram
and steam. gunboats. Also,, to complete the
Stevens' battery. It appropriates one million
dollars for the Ram, thirteen million dollars for
the gunboats, and seven hundred thousand for
the completion of Stevens' battery. Referred.
The case of Senator Powell was taken up, and
he was retained in his seat by a vote of twenty
eight against eleven.
MARca 17.---Housz.—The House concurred in
in the report'of the Committee on Conference on
the bill regulating Sutlers, who are authorized
to, have a lien on soldiers' pay only to one-sixth
of the monthly amount. Feitalties are annexed
for the violation of this provision.
SENATE.—Mr. Harris presented a -petition of
citizens of New-YOrk, asking Congress to dis
pense with the agitation of the slavery question,
any to attend to the restoration of the country:
Fessenden, of Maine, from the Committee
of Conference on the bill providing for the pur
chase of coin, made a report, which was agreed
to.
Washington.
Marton 12.—The telegraph works admirably,
and Washington converses with Fortress Monroe
as readily as it does with Alexandria and the
camps of the Potomac.
Mr. Stevens is here with a model of his battery.
It has been visited and examined with deep interest
to-day, by Naval Committees of Congress, and
receives universal applause. Can New-York do
nothing to promote its completion? By working
day and night it could be finished in sixty days.
The statement published by some journals,
that last week a council of war, in Washington,
decided, eight-to four, that the army of the Po
tomac could not be moved against the enemy at
present, is said to be untrue. The Generals were
unanimous that an advance was possible and
proper. The only difference was as to the plan
of the proposed attack. -
The relief of Gen. McClellan from the com
mand of the Western Department, is only just to
him. It would be wrong to keep him responsi
ble for campaigns which, while he is in ,the field,
he cannot personally supervise. While his ene
mies see in this change his humiliation, his friends
see his justification and safety.
March 13.—1 f any apprehension prevails in
any, minds that Gett. McClellan has lost the con
fidence of the President, or is: to be disturbed in
his command of the grand army, or prevented
from nlosing this -campaign in his own way, the
thought may be finally dismissed. The great
army is on the wartp.ath."-NA plan of "Onward"
is unanimously'.‘agidea k to,w all'the. Generals

MeClellan.Coi% Neto-YA 'rinses. . -
Members Of. the Committee on the Concluded
the War, went_ta' Centreville and Manassas-• to
day, directed by the Committee to gather facts
in regard to the late rebel strength•and fortifica
tions there. They will return to-morrow. Col.
Kingsbury, of the Ordnance Department, pro
nounces the quarters at Centreville and Manassas
,suflicient to shelter one hundred thousand men.
-This nearly agrees with the number that Capt.
Wood, of Wheat's Louisiana battalion, says were
stationed there all Winter.
The tug Leslie went down to Quantico yester
day, towing, a large scow. with shears and ma
chinery for removing the cannon from the aban
doned rebeLbatteries.
• A large number of shells have been found in
the rebel, magazines. They were neatly packed
in fine sea-weed, which is said to be an excellent
ugen to keep the powder dry 'and prevent prema
re explosions.
It, appears that the retreat of the rebels from
Centreville, commenced.' as late as Friday:last,
and that it was at first conducted in a very or
derly manner. 'lt was only when the rear:of the
army was leaving:Manassas, that the panic be
gan caused by the fact that some over-excited
rebels had already set fire to some of the rail
'road bridges beyond. 'Then' the rebels began to
,burn and destroy, and to run away in the great 7
est confusion.
If the rebels are pursued from Manassas to
Gordonsville ever so vigorously, it is not likely
they could be caught up with under a week, if
they do destroy the railroad as they go.
March 14.—The,relations between the •United
States and foreign nations are now entirely free
from any apprehension whatever of disturbance.
The tone of all the correspondence is conciliatory
and amicable. It is considered that the British,
as well as the French Ministry, , is evidently gain
ing strength, owing to the disconntenancing of
sympathy with the Secessionists.
The Senate was in executive session an hour
and a half to-day, the result, of which was the
confirmation of Brigadier-General McDowell as
Major-General of volunteers.
The bill introduced by Mr. Hale, from the
Committee on Naval Affairs, to-day, provides for
the•construction, under the direction of the Sec
retary of the Navy, of an iron-clad steam vessel
of not less than five or six thousand tons burden,
and of great•speed and strength, to lie used only
as a ram ; for which purpose $1,000,000 be ap
propriated; slim, '513,000,000 for the ,construc
tion of-iron-clad gunboats; $780,000 for the
completion of Stevens' Battery, and $500,000 for
extending the facilities of the Washington Navy
Yard, so as to forge and roll plates for the ar
mored ships.
Mame 17.—Yesterday a reconnoitering party
started from the North side of Quantico Creek,
and occupied Dumfries. From the river to the
village the road is strewn with dead horses;
some were in harness and attached to wagons.
The repel force in and around Dumfries was
composed of Texans, Alabamians and South
Carolinians under command of Wigfall, of
Texas. About three hundred cartridge and cap
bores, blankets, flour, etc., were found in the
house used as Wigfall's headquarters. A large
quantity of shells and cartridges were also
stowed away in a barn, and seventy-five boxes
of onnwenition were found near the creek.
.it Thoroughfare station; twelve, miles from
Manassas, on the road to Winchester, were on
Friday, found fifty-two freight cars, loaded with
commissary stores, valued at twenty thousand
dollars.
At Manassas, the secret agent of this Govern

quarter's of Beauregard and Johnson, a large
number •of documents in reference to the nu

The death of Mr. Gibson is an event which is
justly deplored in the. Christian community in
which he dwelt. He was a man of thought and
intelligence, upright, active, and judicious in
his -business habits, and decided, conscientious,
and devoted as a ready and useful Christian.
Few men `among us more spontaneously yielded
their cooperation in the support of all moral and
religious institutions, or evinced more enlight
ened zeal and warmth in doing good. His kind,
and courteous, and fraternal manners, made his
Christian intercourse pleasant and edifying,
while the depth and fervor of his religious prin
ciples fitted him for much usefulness in the
cause of Christ. Until the attack of his last and
fatal illness, he enjoyed vigorous health and the
prospect of much remaining time and capacity
for usefulness to the cause which he so much
loved.; and in hiS sudden removal from the
Church on earth, his numerous friends, while
they realize a sad bereavement in his death, re
ceive from it a fresh admonition to work " while
it is yet day."

gregation for over twenty-five years. His -life
was that of the humble Christian, and his death
was peaceful and happy. His remains rest in
the Sewickley burying-ground, there to await
the resurrection morn, whilst it is confidently be
lieved his spirit is happy with the Lord. The
widow and the orphans, whilst they mourn his
departure, have reason to rejoice in the comfort
ing evidence left them that for him "to die was
gain." In his death the family i have lost a kind
and affectionate husband and father, the. Church
a useful and active member, and society an

Roberts, who died in command of a regiment of
Penna. Volunteers in the Mexican war.
Mrs. Roberts was in her seventy-sixth year,
and retained a notable measure of her great ac
tivity, and energy of character till the close of
life. She was for some eighteen years a member
of the Presbyterian church at Dunlaps'Creek,
and expired in hope of a blessed resurrection

The deceased was a , daughter of Mr. Robert
Lyle, an elder of the church of Cross Creek, and
was from her earliest years . 'trained up in the
nurture and admonition of the Lord." Along
with her husband, she connected herself with
the church of Cross Creek in the Summer of the
year 1828. From that time she steadfastly wit
nessed a good confession till the day of her death.
In her last affliction, which was long and painful,
she was sustained and cheered with a good hope,
both Sure and steadfast. Mrs. Simpson was a
mother in Israel, and was 'characterized by uni
versal kindness to all around,lier, and peculiar
sympathy for all the eons aid daughters of
affliction. her loss will be :irreparable to her
bereaved husband and family, and a wide circle
of attached friends will long and tenderly cher
ish her memory. ' J. S.

In the year 1815, Mrs. A. united with the
Presbyterian church of Washington, Pa., then
under the pastoral care of the Rev. , Matthew
Brown. . In 1831 she removed with her husband
and family to the .vicinity Of Beallsviile, Ohio,
where she spent her remaining years. She was
one of the number that organized the Preslyte
rian church of Beallsvie. She was an ornament
to the church. As long as she had strength to
go, she was a faithful attendant on all the minis
trations of the sanctuary. She was a meek and
patient follower of Jesus: .In all the vicissitudes
Of life, .she was cheerful and happy.' - When

sorely afflicted, she always spoke of the mercy
of the Lord and his goodness unto her. Until
her dying day, her mind peemed to have much
of the vivacity of youth. At all times it might
be said of her, that her peace Bowed like a river.
Her work on earth was done, and she "came to
the grave in a full age, like as a shock' of corn
cometh in his season." "Blessed are the .dead
which die in the Lord." • M.
DIED—At his residence, East Liberty,' Pa.,
Nov. 80th, 1861, WILLIAM WARMOASTLE,
aged 47 years, 11 months, and 12 days.
Mr. W. was honest and upright in his deal
ings, prompt and active in the discharge of his
duties, firm and inflexible in his integrity, and
possessed of many high and noble qualities he
had a warm and generous nature, frank and un
assuming manners, a kind and-obliging disposi
tion, and a consistent but unassuming piety,
which endeared him to a large circle of friends.
He was highly esteemed in all the relations of
life, as a worthy citizen, a steadfast friend, an
affectionate son, a fond husband, a kind parent.
The illness that terminated his useful career was
short and painful, and borne throughout with
Christian patience and fortitude. His faith never
wavered, but was firmly fixed on the atoning
blood of Jesus Christ. When be found that he
was dying, he called his aged mother, and his
wife and children, around him, bade them an
affectionate farewell, and committed them to the
care, of our blessed Saviour, then, as if he had
caught a glimpse of the bright 'glories that
awaited him, his face was lit up with a joyful
smile, and with the words, "Lord Jesus, come
and take my spirit home," upon his lips, with
out a struggle his redeemed soul took its heav
enly flight. J. D. F.

To SABBATH-SCHOOL SITITCHNTENDENTS:
The singing of the children is now universally admitted
to be one of the most attmeive and interesting exercises of
the Sabbath School, and the importance of a good musical
instrument in this connexion will hardly be called in ques
tion.
Heretofore a great lack has existed of a really good instru
ment for Sabbath Schoorpurposee, at a low price. The
SCHOOL-HARMONIUM has been especially •designed to
meet this want. The moderate amount necessary for its
purchase could hardly be spent to so good purpose , in any
other way in permanently increasing the attractiveness and
usefulness of the School. The purchase money can gener
ally be raised by an appeal to the children themseties.
"Every Sabbath School oueht to have a SchoOl-Harmonium.
Every Village" church (which cannot afford the larger
Orkari Harmonium,) should be furnished with a School-
Harmonium. ,
