Benevolence.
. ,
God's people are a benevolent people. They
live not for themeelves merely, but to do good as
they have.opportunity. This is truly charsetei:.-
istio of Mount Pleasant congregation, in Dar
lington, Pa: In making social visits among
them, seldom does he who ministers to them in
word and doctrine return to his home without
some token of substantial kindness. Not antis
hed, however, with this mode of showing their
love and esteem, •they resolved meting themselves
to meet together at their pastor's residence.
They did so on Wednesday the 3d inst.; and a.
more pleasant day we have never spent. A
pleasant time was eiidently among their inten
tions, for they brought with them a good ainner
and smiling countenanoes, whioh we all enjoyed.
The kind greetings of , friends and fellow-wor
shippera ; the pleasant social intercourse of the
occasion, and the sweet minglings of heart and
sympathy in the closing religions services, was
well adapted to extend and foster the reciprocal
interest felt by pastor and people in each other's
present and eternal welfare.
They lift behind them many substantial tokens
of good will, composed of just such articles as a
sensible Christian people would present to their ,
pastor. And lest something - else might be want
ing to-add to the comfort of ,their pastor and his
family, a purse of $5O was provided to procure it.
That the choicest blessings of a God in covenant .
may rest upon the donors, 'with their ' families,
and the entire congregation of Which they font a
part, is the sincere and earnest, prayer of their
pastor. A. W.,BOTD. -

4, This place is not so bad a place
As some would like to makelt."
There ie here a Prisbyterista congregation
composed of intelligent, liberal-minded and'open
banded people. They pay their pastoi's salary
promptly, and in addition they make donation
parties. Drow, if I were not afraid of Incurring
'their displeasure, I would here make mention of
a donation which`they made their pastor 'a few
evenings ago, amounting to $250 ; and:also of a
handsome suit of clothes presented to him by the
ladies,:a short time before, amounting tx all- to
$3OO. But t there is no telling how they might
tale it, seeing they are, a quiet, unostatious,:peo
p, doing deeds of kindness beianse they haie
kind ,hettits, and not-because they wish' to be
flattered.
I will, however, run the'risk of manufacturing
an apology, which I hope may . prove satisfactory,
in case this ever comes to their ears, and say to
you, that the donation already hinted at was actu
ally made, and that several persons of the different
denominations of the place entered into it with a
hearty goodwill. Let those congregations that are
in arrears with the salary, pay up; and let them
surprfse their pastor with such other things as
they seal° be needful for him. Itmay embarrass
him for 'w iime, but he will soon get over it, and
think none the less of them for it:

Army of the Potomac.—WASTMGTON, Feb.
S.—The late reconnoissance in force by three
corps of the Array of the Potomac, of which the
military authorities requested that no mention
should be made until fully completed, has been
.accomPlished. The object in view was ascer
tained, viz.: the finding Of Lee and his army,' in
full force; a few miles south of the Rapidan riv-.
er. Rumors of disaster to our form haye pre
vailed to-day, but late arrivals. from. the army
this afternoon furnished the following facts:
When our troops pushed across at Guinan's.
Ford on Friday, they found the reberrifie pits in ,
the immediate vicinity occupied by bat twenty
five pickets, who threw down their arms and
surrendered, stating that there was no rebel force
Within ten miles of their. position. Immediately
thereafter our forces pushed abead - in the direc
tion of Orange Court House, but had hardly pro
ceeded two miles - before they were opened on •
from twelve guns. Attacking the rebel force
supporting the guns, we drove them from their..
position - with considerable loss in killed, wound
ed and prisoners, our loss being thirty-five iin the
affair. In the course of the movement, General
Hays' portion of our forces being engaged, drove
the enemy in, overwhelming force and in a
strongly fortified position in the vicinity,ef Mor
ton's Ford. Gen. Hays ordered their , works to
be'earried by storm, which was found impracti:,
cable without to great a loss under existing eir- -
cumstances, when the condition _of the roads
wouldmot admit of, pushing to a legitimate re
sult any. advantage. A. heavy sacrifice of men
might secure it for us for the' time being. 'He , ,
according.witldrew his attacking force ' with a
loss on our part of between 200 and 300 men,
killed, wounded and. missing.
British Pacification of Japan.—Dr. Magow
an communicated to a literary circle recently at
Watilaington.eity some recent intelligence from
japan and China. The Prince of Satsuma had
been brought to submission by the recent born
bardment. of Xagosima, his 'capital. He admits
:the offences.eharged against him by the British
Minister, and oonsen tirt o - in ake all the reparation
demanded by the .English. A. satisfactory; ar
rangement was made between Colonel Neal and
the Prince's Envoys on the 16th of November.
To suck a degree has Satsuma yielded to the new
order of things, that he has made proposals for
sending to England some of the. young Men of
the nobility of his territory for traveland educa
tion...
No more will be heard of thepreat of the Gor
.
ogi.a, made lately- to- Mr; Prnyn and the Dutch
Minister,.-of the claims of tho port of Xakohatna
and the transfer of all foreign commerce to Naga
saki. ,
Prince Rung, Chinese Minister of Foreign Af
fairs, -having repudiated the arrangement made
with Capt. Osborne•, the formidable flotilla which
had reached the Chinese waters' has been dis
persed, and a. portion returns to .Bngland and
another to Bombay, to be. ineorporsted with the
royal Davy. The Mitupohn government feels
strong enough to suppress the Taeping rebellion
without hazarding the einployment of swat din
. •
gerous auxiliaries.
Movements near Knoxville.—About the 19th
or 20th of January, says the Nashville Chian, It
will be recollected that (len. Sturgis, at the head
of a division - of Cavalry, made an attack` on the
rebels at Dandridge, and, after a.heavy demon
stration, suddenly retreated to Knoxville, whence
be proceeded to the eastward, accompanied by
reinforcements, but of, the nature of the expedi-.
tion all were ignorant: We have now a solution
of .the mystery, from a gentleman direct from
East Tennessee, whti is fully acquainted with the
situation, and vouches for the facts which he
narrates.
The capedition left in the direction of Sevier
ville, but on arriving in thth vicinity,of the place
suddenly .turned to the northward, and on the
25th struck the railroad near Mothsy Creek sta-
Lion, with :a view of cutting off the body of caval
ry which' had moved toward. Knoxville, when the
retreat of a few days before took place.
• The advance was so sudden that the rebels
were entirely taken by surprise ; their communiz
cation with Zongstreet ,was completely cut• off,:
and they had nothing left but to fight or surren
der. A battle of several hours ensued, resulting
not Only in the utter - disoomfiture of the 'eneiny,
but in the capture of two pieces of cannon. - and
from,4oo to 600 prisoners. (
The Hartford Fire —Half of the factory of
the Colt's American Arms Cempany was deitroy-''
ed by firs en -the morning of the 6th inst. In . the.
buildings destroyed, Colt's pistols and revolving
rifled were made. In the ,buildings, spre&the
manufacture of United States rifles is parried on, •
the - company having ' a large contract With 'the
Government for the manufacture of these weap
'ens. " This portion, of the worki wilioontinue in , .
operation, giving employment to eight hundred
men. The stock a pistols and' rifles completed
and in •course of manufacture and which was -
destroyed by this fire, is valued at. $1,000.000..
The machinery destroyed cost more than $500,-
000, and the whole losejs computed at $2,000,000.
The total insurance on the property is, $660,000,
of which about sixty Per cent. was on 'the' prop
erty destroWed. Nearly nine hundred men- are
thrown out, Of employment. The fire. broktvout in,
