PITTSBURGH, SEPT. 16, 1863
The War.
GOOD NEWS still comes, causing joyous
anticipations. But we do not forget the
advice, to "rejoice with trembling." We
know not what a day m ay bring forth.
What may be the mind of Providence in
the disposition of events is to be certainly
known, only on their occurrence. Still,
the Future is o rdinarily indicated by the
past and the present; and when the present
is bettor than the recent past, and the pros
pect is fair for days to come, it is a duty,
as well as a privilege, to rejoice.
WE CAN NOW SAY, without any impor
tant exception, that Tennessee is ours.
Knoxville surrendered to Gen. Burnside
several days ago. On the 9th inst., Cum
berland Gap, with 2,000 prisoners, surren
.dered to Gen. Shackletord, who commanded
Gen. .Burnside's left wing. Chattanooga
was abandoned on the Bth, to Gen. Bem
oans. And all without battles. We wish
to see the enemy's forces wasted, but still,
we delight in bloodless victories. Some
blood-letting was indispensable to victories
which would produce peace ; but we trust
that nearly enough has now been shed.
Sometimes an enemy is really more weak
ened by being compelled to retreat without
fighting, than by being beaten in a contest.
His army is disheartened ; his plans are
foiled; desertions abound, A.nd suet is
'the ease with Gen. Bragg's Army of the
Tennessee. It is far more crippled and
wasted by his retreats from his strongholds
at Shelbyville, Tullahoma, and Chatta
hooga, than by his defeat at Muifreesboro'.
The next intended movements of the
armies of Gens. Roseorans and Burnside,
are not yet announced. The former is
likely to advance into Georgia, and the
(Aber to incline Northward.
GEN. GRANT, lately at Cairo on a visit,
has gone to New-Orleans to confer with
Gen. Banks. The result of their delibera
tions is not published. Moat minds desig
nate Mobile as the next place to -assail.
There might be men enough spared now
from the three armies of Banks, Grant,
and Roseerans, to make a formidable as
sault upon this important and strongly
fortified city of the South. Mobile is said
to be second only to Charleston, in its de
fences seaward, and far to exceed Charles
ton in those which protect it from an ap
proach by land.
Ttiri Mrserssrrn BMA is opened to
nniestrieted trade between New-Orleans
and Cairo, and all ports above Cairo, in
cluding those on the Ohio.
Tint Myna have abandoned Little
Ark. They, however, still threaten

A •,,.. 6th and 6th, having advanced near
to tagner and Cumming's Point, they in
, Incited on these places a terrific cannonade,
A intending on the morning of the 7th to
carry them by assault. But they were hap

pily vlieved from this destructive expedi

ed, it revealed the forts vacated. The
J
.. guns of both places were nearly all disa

..; capable of sheltering 800 men. From
the Point, Charleston is plainly in view,
and can be reached with long-range guns.
The ruins . of Sumpter, however, are need
ed, where to plant a heavy battery of Par
rot guns, to shell the city. An effort to
carry the place, on the Bth, failed. Fort
Moultrie, on Sullivan's Island, has. been
shelled by the fleet, and is severely dam
aged. It held out at last advioes.
GEN. MEADE has crossed the Itappahan
r nook with his cavalry, and occupied Cul

of his ajpa, partly to Charleston,
and partly to the South-west; and has

WOA P EC OF THE CHRISTIAN COMMISSION.-
EARNEST CALL FOR MORE DELEGATES.
The following interesting letter is from
the Rev. Benjamin Parsons, formerly a mis
sionary in Turkey, now a delegate acting as
Field Agent of the Christian Commission at
the headquarters of Gen. Roseorans—in the
very front,. Another of the delegates in
that department telegraphs as follows
"NASHVILLE, Sept. 8, 1868.
"George H. •Stuart, Chairman :—Send
ten preachers."
ifx.Parsons writes about the work and.
the waqgs of delegates, as follows :
giIiVEAMON, Ala,,-Aug. 26, 1863.
"The work at this station is opening, I
may say, bleagedly. We occupy the only
church building of the village. We have
a meeting in it every night, and the house
• is so trowded that many take eeata upon the
stops of.the pulpit, and those of the stele.

More attentive, serious, and solemn tiONIX4
blies of men I never saw, than are 111600'0f
the noble sons of the West. nod's Spirit
does seem to be present with power. And
ob, how many benedictions fresh and warm
limn their hearts, do these soldiers pro . -
nounoe on the U. S. O. OQmmiesiou. The
ware grasp of the hand, the tearful eye,
• the earnest prayer, these indicate to us
(what we are often told) that the Christian
-Commission has a very strong hold upon
the hearts of the soldiers of this army. I
can hardlY t ooneeive of an event that would
oause'mero deep.ued OXOllOiVe Morrow awl
grief on the part of these soldiers, than
would be caused by depriving them of the
kindly offices of the Christian Commission.
di The officers, from the lowest in rank to
the highest, seem very ready to grant us
all reasonable facilities for carrying forward
our appropriate work. The Lord has
granted us a wide door and effectual, and
we are, I trust, endeavoring to enter it and
serve him in labors for the temporal and
spiritual good of these thousands for - whom
Christ died.
" We are at present rather weak-handed,
having only four licensed preachers on the
ground, and four theological students. Of
the latter, one goes home on Saturday, and
two are too ill to dq much more than merely
care for themselves. The preachers are
experienced pastors, strong, good men, the
men most needed here. One good brother,
Rev. Mr. Cushing, from Massachusetts, is
doing a precious work at Cowan, Tenn., in
a field hospital and convalescent camp ;
but he writes me his hands are more than
full.
Here, in Stevenson; (which is a very
important point in a military point of view,)
800 hospital tents are now being put up for
the sick of the army, (and hence a great
field of usefulness,) and an immense struc
ture for sheltering steam engines and gov
ernment stores. Prom this point I have
fide facilities for sending out delegates to
the troops scattered here and there, and
also for transporting reading matter and
stores. The Lord be praised for granting
as- so wide a door..
(I We want men to go to Huntsville, Ala.,
to Bridgeport, to Bellefonte, to Anderson,
to Pikeville, Dunlap, Jasper, and other
points in Tennessee, and very soon to Chat
tanooga, and probably Atlanta, in Georgia.
Men of power, intellectual and spiritual,
and physical, too, who want a good work to
do, and are willing to endure hardness as
good soldiers of Jesus Curist for the spirit
ual good of the thousands here who are en
during hardness for their country's good,
can find just what they want here, and
enough of it, I enough to spare.'"
Those willing to go, may apply, with tes
timonials by letter 'or in person, at the
Central Office, 11 Bank Street, Philadel
phia, or if more convenient, to Jos. Albree,
71 ood Street, Pittsburgh, W. T. Per
kins, 17 West Third Street, Cincinnati, or
J. V. Farwell, at the Young Men's Chris
tian Association Rooms, Chicago.

The Maine Election.
At the late election-in the State of Maine, the
Republicans carried the day. Corry (Union)" is
elected Governor by a majority estimated at
26,000. The Rouse of Representatives will be
Republican by a large majority ; and the Senate
will be nearly if not quite unanimous. So says
the telegraph.
New Music
" No Irish Need Apply," is the title of an orig
inal song just published. It alludes complain
ingly to the antipathies of the English against
the Irish ; shows wittily and satirically their un
reasonableness; and concludes with a tribute of
praise to America, and with a longing wish for
the prosperity of the ;Union. The versification
is, in the main, harmonious, though some of the
lines lack smoothness. It is for sale by Mrs.
Charlotte Blume, 43 Fifth Street, Pittsburgh.
Price by mail, 25 cents. .
Amending the Constitution.
The existing Constitution of Pennsylvania pro
vides for its amendment, without a convention of
the people. Amendments proposed are to be
adopted by two successive Legislatures, and then
approved by a majority of voters pro or con., at
a general election. Amendments are to be made
not more than once in five years.
The last Legislature proposed three important
amendments. The first extending the right of suf
frage to all citizens of the State in the military ser
vice of the Government; the second provides that
no bill shall be passed by the Legislature contain
ing more than one subject, which shall be clearly
expressed in the title, except appropriation bills;
the third amendiient provides that no bill shall
be passed by the Legislature granting any power
or privileges in any case, where the courts of the
State have or may hereafter have authority to
grant such powers or privileges.
The Legislature to be elected next month will
pass its judgment on these articles, and if they
are approved they will be submitted to the voters
at the October election in 1864.

To Maj. Gen. H. W. Halleek I have the honor to
report that Port Wagner'and Battery dregg ire

them made their escape from Cummings' Point
in small boats.
Captured dispatches allow that the Fort was
commanded by Col. Keitt, of the S. S. gtrrison,
by 1,400 effective men, and Battery Gregg by
between 100 and 200 men.
Port Wagner is a work. of the most formidable
kind. Iti3 bomb-prOof shelter, capable of hold
ing 1,800 men, remains intact after the :most
terrible bombardment to which any work was
ever subjected. We have captured 19 pieces of
artillery and a large supply of excellent am
munition. The city and harbor of Charleston
are now completely covered by my. 'guns. I
have the honor to be, General, very respectfully,

e, dated noxville, Tenn., Sept. 6,. says;
The great campaign- of war is over. We are
in possession of: '!ast Tennessee, afOr -a great
bloodless victory. Th e campaign was skilfully
planned and energetically executed. Such was
the rapidity of our movements that the rebels
were taken unawares and fled before us without
destroying any property. At London they at
tempted to hold the bridge, but the impetuosity
of the 2d Tennesiee Regiment broke them to
fragments. ' Three steamboats, three locomotives,
and a large number of cars we:re'captured there.
The whole march of our army was a perfeot
ovation, and our entry into Knoxville is an event
long to be remembered. , Thousands of people of
every age sex, color and condition lined the say,
with shouts and tears intermingled with martial
music, and joy T 13
eigned supreme. urnaide -ad
dressed the soldiers and people, and assured
them of protection, 'and that while.justioe should
be dealt, revenge was no part of the policy of
the Government.
Oen. Carter also spoke in touching terms of
their sufferings, and announced its termination.
Col. Saunders was oalled out amid shouts of
welcome.
Col. Gilbert has been appointed Military Gov
ernor and Gen. Carter Provost Marshal General
of East Tennessee.
A. second dispatch says that. our right wing is
within easy reach of Roomette' left.
The rebels regarded our expedition ne a raid
until the last moment.
In speaking of the Iron City College of Pitts
burgh, Pa., the well known author and distin
guished accountant, John Fleming, who has had
a practical bnsiness experience of -over forty
years' standing, eays: - "I am acquatnted with a
great many of the graduates of this College, yet
I never knew one who was not an accomplished
accountant and a skillful book-keeper." This,
though high praise, is well deserved, for it is
now pretty generally known and admitted, that
the Iron City College has no equal in this country
as a first-class Commercial School.

most effective to convince those who seek the re
newal of commercial prosperity, through the re
storation of peace, that the quickest and shoftest
way to give that desirable end is to - withdraw
support and favor from the insurgents, arid leave
the adjustment of domestic controversies with
the people of the United States."

The matter of principal interest, in our for
eign
news is the follOWing reply of Lord Russell,
in relation to the steam rams in the Mersey :
Foreign 0 ffice,..Aug. 13.-,Gents: I have re
ceived your lettet calling attention to a subject
of very grave and pressing importance, viz.: the
fitting out and - equipping - of two powe rfulr iron
plated steam rams, which I am informed, - are .
intended to commit hostilities against the - Gov-
ernment and people of the United States. My
attention has long been directed to these sub
jects. • Both the Treasury and Rome Depart
meats have,-at my request,-made -most anxious
inquiries upon the subject of these steam rams.
,4 You are aware that by the foreign enlistment
act, aship is liable to be detained, and the own
ers are subject to a penalty when the ship is
armed or equipped for purposes of war, - and the
owners intend to use her against some State or
community in friendship-with her Majesty. It
is necessary to prove both the equipment and
the intention ; it is necessary for a conviction in
a public court Ofjestici to have the evidence of a
creditable witness. I was in hopes When . I be
gan to read your memorial that you would pro
pose to furnish me :with evidence to prove that
the steam 'rams in question were intended to
carry on hostilities against the . Government and -
people of the United States. But you have made"
no proposal of the sorti and only tell me that you
are informed that so and so, and that it is believed
to be so and so. You must be aware, • however,
that according to oominorklaw,proseentions cannot
be . set. on foot upon the ground -of a violation of
the foreign enlistment act without the affidavit
or creditable witnesses, as in other cases.of - mis
demeanor and crime. Such likewise is the law
in the United - States. •-• • •

DIED—On the 23d of July, at Vicksburg,
Miss.; JAMES W. IJAIIGISEA.D, of Co. El, 80th
Reg't 0. V. 1., aged about 23 years.
He was the oldest child of William Laughead,
an elder in the Presbyterian church of Coshoc
ton Ohio, formerly in M'Keesport, Pa. He had
faithfully served nearly two years in the army.
Aware of his approaching end, and attended by
a younger brother in the same regiment be
"fell asleep." His bereaved parents bare their
sorrow tempered by their faith in the power and
grace of that Clod whose " promise is to you and
to your children."
DIED—On the 30th of July last, Mr. JAMES
TAGGART, Sr., in the 819 t. year of his'age.
The deceased was among the most worthy and
esteemed citizens of the community in which he
resided. 'To his character as a worthy citizen,
was added that of a Christian, He had long
been a member in the communion of the Presby
terian church of Upper Buffalo, and sustained the
office of Ruling Elder in it for between twenty
three and twenty-four years. I
In conversation with the writer, he expressed i
a desire to live to see the issue of our national;
troubles; yet it was with resignatiejt to the
Lord's will. He was manifestly prepared for his
final change, and taken from earth as a shock
of grain fully ripe in its season. J. E.
DIED—At the residence of his father, near
Washington, Ohio, July 21st, 1863, WILLIAM
T. SA.WHILL, in the 31st year of his age.
The decease of this noble young man is a.
source of great grief to many. He was widely
known and generally beloved. We have seldom
known a more amiable, upright, honest Chris
tian gentleman. Early in life he professed
Christ, and ever, under all circumstances, main
tained a deportment consistent therewith. He
was, for years, one of the most active and useful
members of the Presbyterian church. of Wash
ington, delighting to do all in his power to ad
vance its interests and to bring sinners to the
Saviour. He is greatly missed as an accomplished
chorister, organist, and Sabbath School teacher;
there being few left so well qualified to fill his
place in these spheres of Christian usefulness..
But he has gone to his reward. We have lost—
he has gained. His disease was of a dropsical
character, painful and protracted. He bore it
with commendable patience,. ;He leaves a dear
young wife, tender parents, loving brothers and
sisters, and a most extensive circle of friends and
acquaintance, to mourn that his manly form will
no more appear among us in this world.
A large and sorrowful procession followed his
remains to the tomb. the day after his death,
where they . were left to " sleep in Jesus," till
that glorious morn when they shall arise clothed
in immortality. W. M. P.
DIED—In Amwell Township, Washington Co.,
on August Utb, Mrs. JANE FLENNIKEN
STROUSS, in the 68th year of her age.
• Deceased was a grabd-daughter of Rev. Thad
deus Dodd, of pioneer memory, and daughter of
Dr. Ceplum Dodd, who succeeded his father in
the pastorate of the Ten Mile churches. In
1886 she was married to Dr. S. S.'Strouss, who
still survives her, together with three out of
seven children. She was a member of the
church of Lower - Ten Mile, having made a pro
fusion of religion under the ministrations of her
father. She leaves behind her a pleasing testi
mony of the sincerity of her profession, and her
afflicted relatives can rejoice in the hope that
she has gained by dying. For years before her
death she had been a sufferer in body, and at
times 'was greatly discouraged about her spir
itual state. Her views of self were very hum
bling, and she could not feel assured of -God's
love ; yet the whole tenor or her life showed
where her best affections were. She sought the
everlasting good of others, while her hand was
opened to suply the temporal wants of the poor.
She was a woman of prayer, and always stood
ready to defend the good name of Christians.
During her last illness, which was severe, she
I could testify that Jesus was all her salvation and
all her desire. And nqw, all that , knew her are
encouraged to believe that she sleeps in Jesus.

FOR - DISTRIBUTION:
66 OUR SUNDAY SCHOOL, AND
HOW WE CONDUCT IT."
By Waldo Abbott, Esq.,
WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY
REV. JOHN S. C. ABBOTT.
Ftdbably no work on any one specific subject addresses
itself more generally to the public mind, than does this vol
ume. It makes its appeal be every paternal heart, and in
vests the whole subject of juvenile education with no or
dinary type of interest.
To Sabbath School superintendents, teachers, and officers,
it is especially directed. It is no ordinary treatise on the
importance and dignity of their labors, but a succinct, prac
tical guide for the organization and management of Sunday
Schools. Almost every difficulty which can arise is met, and
the proper mode of overcoming it clearly shown. Its direc
tions for the selection of a library, the chapters on "Teach
ing," "On Speaking to Children," "The Infant Class," and
"The Bible Class," will prove of great value. The chapter
on "Sunday School floats," illustrated by diagrams and
handsome engravings, le an entirely new feature. It also
contains beautiful interior views of some of our most cele
brated Sunday School rooms, including those of Lee Avenue
and Plymouth churches, Brooklyn, N. Y.
To the general teacher, who would gain an insight into
the nature and feelings of children—learning to entertain
while Instructing them, to guile while securing their affec
tions, it will prove a desideratum.
For the parent and guardian it bee few superiors, as show
ing the philosophy of rightly moulding young minds, and
the proper mode of administering kind, effective and judi
cious discipline.
To the general reader it offers an entertaining narrative,
opening to view the youthful intellect, and abounding in in
teresting incidents and striking illustrations. It will do
good because it will be read, and it will be read because it
relates to childhood. It is of a high Christian tone, and
could half a million copies be circulated the coming year,
we feel assured that the moral force of the Sunday School
would be quadrupled, and the whole question of child edu
cation, and the best mode of developing the latent power of
this Gospel Institution, would be clothed with colossal pro
portions, to the mind of every Christian and patriot. In
giving to the Sunday School .men and women of America
this able and comprehensive treatise, Mr. Abbott has done
an unspeakable service to . the cause of Obriatian education
in all time.
