had Just lost a child by death. And yet
knowing this, they accuse him OF aosentlng
himself from the Senate for the purpose oi
"dodging" a vote on the Homestead bill
Mr. Douglass entire record on the Home
stead bill shows that he was warmly in favor
of such a measure; that he endeavored to
procure an amendment to the Senate bill IN
an important particular that, falling in this,
he voted for the House bill. he urged the
adoption of the Senate bill as the only one
that could be passed under the circumstances,
and voted for it, while Hamln voted against
il. Will some Black Republican paper pub
lish "the record of the speeches and votes of
Judge Douglas in favor of the Homestead
bill"
When Mr.. Douglas was detained from the
Senate 10y illness, he paired off with an oppo~
nent of the measure.

A VERY IMPORTANT RrMoE.-The San Fran
cisco Nation of Tuesday says
We are almost afraid the news is too good
to be true, although we feel that it will be
true before many days shall have gone 10y
but we heard yesterday that a gentleman of
this city had stated that letters were now in
San Francisco written by John Bell John j.
Crittendep and Edward Everett, advising
the Constitutional Union party of California
to unite with the Democracy and assist in
giving the electoral vote of this State to
Douglas and Johnson, rather than risk the
chances of its going for Abe Lincoln. True
patriotism dictates such course, and letters
or no letters. we believe it will be done.

ARMY officers are drilling State troops.
First Lieut.. W. L. Magruder, who has
served ten years in the first dragons, has
been at home in Maryland, on leave, and has
drilled militia cavalry regiment with such
efficiency, that they have presented him
with service Of plate. Lieut.. Col. Hardie
was also instructor at the recent cavalry en-
campment at Richmond but Secretary
Floyd has been equally willing to aid the
Northern volunteers in perfecting them
selves, and the artillery officers at the forts
in New York have had the city militia
under instruction in the use of heavy artil-
lery all summer.

IT is asked why the personal liberty"
legislation of the North is Sc much more
offensive to the South now than it has been
all along heretofore? Because heretofore
the Federal power to execute the Fugitive
slave law has not been in the hands of the
party which has sought to nullify the law
by State Legislation. With the Federal
power and the powerin the Northern States
both in the hands of the nullifying party,
the South may we'll ask what will become
of the Fugitive law?

in all its results as this most deplorable case

A Model PastOr--Rev. Mr.. Patterson
and the Burch Case.
From the Albany Journal.

From the Albany Journal
We have been waiting and watching for
several days, tor some appropriate and fitting
eulogium, from the press, upon that model
pastor, the Rev. Mr.. Patterson, of Chicago,
whose eminently Christian mode of dscharg-
ing the sacred duty of the confessional, in
augurates more perfect law of confidence
between penitent and pastor A daughter
of the church, in deep affection, laid her
sorrows 10 penitent and touching language,
before her Spiritual Father, entreating him
to present them, in her behalf, to that Mer-
ciful Judge before whom all who are heavy
laden are invited to cast their burthens.
That rigid pastor, who treads
g the steep and thorny way to Heaven"
instead of going with his pentent-bruised
in heart and crushed in spirit-before Him
who is easily to be- entreated, handed her
petition over to human tribunal! The
appeal of au erriHg but contrite daughter of
the church, for her pastors intercession
with her Heavenly Father, goes before an
earthly court, to be used for the inhiction of
temporal punishment; and before the world,
to aggravate her modification and misery
This, we repeat, inaugurates a new era
in Clerical ethics. 1t reforms the relation
between Conessor and renitent. 1t cor.
reefs and dispels delusion under which
Christians have labored. A Pastor takes
the confession of member of his Church
and hands it over to civil Magistrate
This certainly conflicts with long cherished
prejudices. Pastors have suffered pains and
penalties, languished in prisons, and defed
tortures, rather than divulge the secrets of
the Confessional. Indeed, there is higher,
brighter, boiler example. When an erring
but penitent woman came before our Savior,
in reply to those who desired him to repel
her, he rebuked them all by telling "Lim who
is without sin to cast the first stone"
Our model and modern Chicago Pastor
reverses the teachings and example of his
Divine Master, by himself stonlng the Pen
itent who asked for his PRAYERS.

The Chicago Times says that about forty
negroes of that city have organized mill

Pfthy Correspondence Between the
Boston AbOlittOnists and Governor
Packer of Pennsylvania.

The following letter, signed James Red
path, Secretary, was recently received by
Gov. Packer, inviting him to participate
in the proposed meeting at fremont Tenn
pie, in Boston, on the anniversary of the
execution of John Brown. Governor P.
promptly returned the invitation with the
subjoined reply written on blank page of
Mr.. Redpath's letter:
LETTER TO GOV. PACKER.
BOsTON Nov. l6, 1860.
SIR-A number of young men, uncon-
nected at this time with any organization,
but earnestly DESTROYS of devoting them
selves to the work of eradicating slavery in
the United States, respectfully invite you
to meet them in public convention, to be
held at fremont Temple, in this city, on
Monday, the Sd of December next, and
there address them in reply to the question
so vital to the interests and the honor of
our country, and the progress of freedom
in the world " Hon. can american Slaverv
be abolished ~
1t seems to them that the anniversary of
the death of John Brown, who, on the Sd
of December, 1859, was killed for attempt
in to decide this problem in the mode that
he believed to be the most efficient, is an
occasion peculiarly appropriate for the dis
cussiOn OF our duty to the race for whom
he suffered, and more especially for the un-
folding of practical methods for achieving
the holy object be desired to attain by his
descent on Harper's Ferry, Virginia.
An invitation, therefore, will be extended
to the leaders and representatives of all the
different ant.slavery bodies, and to various
men of eminence who have done honor to
their own souls by advocating the cause of
impartial freedom.
Every one thus invited is expected, 10 bis
speeches or letters, to con6ne himself exclu-
sively to the great question of the day, for
it would be work of supererogation now to
defend John Brown, and useless waste of
time to eulogise him. Leaving both of
these duties to the coming ages, let US seek
to continue his life by striving to accom-
plish what he has left us to finish.
An immediate or speedy answer will
greatly oblige, by enabling US to make the
necessary arrangements on plan sufficiently
extensive.
For the Committee,
JAMES REDPATH, Secretary.
To the Governor of Pennsylvania.
P.S. This is our second invitation.
Please favor US with an answer.

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT,
Harrisburg, Pa, Nov. 81, 1860. {
S1R-In my opinion the young men
whose names are attached to the foregoing
letter would better serve God and their
country by attending to their own business.
John Brown was rightfully hanged, and
his fate should be a warning to others hav-
ing similar proclivities.

his failure results from his not having the means to nav
his debts he IS then Olret, but not 6GRIEp until so
declared by competent authority. A person may be
nsovent for any length of time and yet bankrupt
within the meaning Of the statute and 50 q person
may be dc ;ared bankrupt who is not in fact iusoyent
1t contended that, as the mortgage given nine
days previous to the date as of which Turton was de-
elared bankrupt, and that having been made upon a
good consideration, for the purpose of carrying him
through his embarrassment it ought to be sustained
But 1t is clear, from the evidence before u.s. that Tur
ton was insolvent when the mortgage was given and
that he had failed to pay several debts which were over
due ana mad been demanded, among which was his
debt to the plaintiff himself He had made the failure
to pay his just debts upon which he was shortly after
declared bankrupt. And although he was declared
bankrupt of the 28th of April he was in fact in
solvent and had committed acts Of bankruptcy more
than ten days previous to that date So that any trans
fer Of his property then made except upon good con-
sderatOn to bona de purchaser having no notice of
such insolvency, failure, void by the statute and
the property must pass to the assgnees for the benefit
Of all the creditors The result of making mortgage
of all his property his debt to Fallon could
not be to Obvate his embarrassment, but rather to
bring it to crisis, by alarming his other creditors
The plaintiff, appears from the testimony was well
acquainted with the insolvency of TurtOn and his fail
nre to pay his debts And yet he took from him an
sgnment OF all his property, to the debts due
to himself and B. F. Bolles the exclusion of the 9TH
er creditors This clearly at variance with the
policy OF the bankruptcy laws whose leading principle
IS equality among creditors. In order to attain and
preserve that equality, the bankrupts estate as soon
act of bankruptcy is committed, becomes COM
fund for the paymentof his debts and he loses the
character and power of proprietor it. He can
no longer give preferences among his CREDITORS and the
race of diligence between them is wholly interrupted.
Kent's Com, Vol. ?, page 40 Statute Laws, 1913,
page 54, Sections 10 and 20.)
1t is true as has been argued, that the mortgage and
other documents connected with the transaction between
furton and Falon bear upon their face Of what
usually regarded as " badges of fraud - but they
all such open to explanation, and might be
consistent witha bona tde transaction. In this case
however, the Seienter which invalidstes conveyance
made under such circumstances the present, is so
clearly brought home to the mortgage that
strained, in justice TO the other creditors to declare
the mortgage void.
Let Judgment be entered in favor of the defendsats
as of the last day of the term.

Mr.. Harris for defendants.

CAUGHT IN HIS OWN TRAP.-0nce two ministers
of the gospel were eonversing on extemporaneous
preaching.
d" WE'LL" said the old divine, waxing warm,
you running yourself by writing your sermons
and reading them off. Your congregation cannot
become interested in your preaching and if you
were called upon to preach unexpectedly, unless
you could get hold of an old sermon, you would be
completely confused" /"
The young divine used all his eloquence, but in
vain convince the old gentleman that the written
sermon expressed his own thoughts and feelings,
and if called upon he could preach extempOrane-
ously.
- As we are of the same faith" said the young
minister, suppose you try me xtSabbath morning.
On ascending the pulpit, you can hand me text
from any part of the Bible, and / will convince
you that can preach without having looked at the
text before stood up. Likewise must be allowed
the same privilege with you, and see who will make
the best of it,
The idea seemed to delight the old gentleman,
and it was Immediately agreed upon.
The following Sabbath, on mounting the pulpit,
his senior brother handed him slip of paper, on
which was written 'A And the ass opened his
mouth and spake :" from which he preached glo-
rious sermon, claiming the attention Of his delight
ed hearers, and charming his old friend with his
eloquence.
In the afternoon, the yoang brother who was
sitting below the pulpit, handed his slip. After
rising and opening the Bible, the old man looked
s,dly around Am not thine asst" Pausing a
few minutes, he ran his finger through his hair,
Strengthened his collar, blew his like the last
trumpet and read aloud Am not thine ass ~
Another pause in which deadly silence reigned.
After reading the third time Am | not thine

doleful voice, said-'' Think am, BROTHER

The FASHIONABLE LIE" Not at Home ~
never" says lady, - sent that message to the
door but once, and for that once | shall never
forgive myself. 1t was more than three years
ago, and when told my servant that morning to
say Not at hOme,' to whOmsOeVer might call, ex-
cept she knew it was some intimate friend, | felt
my cheeks tingle, and the girls look of surprise
mortified me exceedingly. But she went about
her duties and | about mine, sometimes pleased
that had adopted q convenient fashion by which
could secure time to myself, sometimes painfully
smitten with the reprOaches of conscience. Thus
the day wore away and when Mr.. Lee CAME he
startled me with the news that 4 very dear and
intimate friend was dead. 1t cannot be- was
nv reply, for she exaeted of me q solemn promise
that would alone sit by her dying pillow, as she
had something of great Importance to reveal to
me. You must be misinformed t; no one has been
for me- Here suddenly horrible suspicion
crossed my mind.
80 She sent for you but you were not az hOme,'
said Mr.. Lee, innOcently; then he continued 81
am sorry for Charles, her husband he thinks her
distress much aggravated by your absence, from
the fact that she called your name piteously He
would have sought for you but your servant said
she did not know where you had gone. / am
sorry You must have been out longer than usual,
for Charles sent a servant over here three times
Never, in all my life, did experience such
lOathng Of myself, such utter humiliation. Ny
servant had gone further than |, in adding false
hood to falsehOod and had placed it out of my
power TO reprove her by my own equivocatiOn. L
felt humbled to the very dust and the next day l
resolved, over the cold clay of my friend, that
