Although it was Congroga tional Church, it
will be no less Interesting to Christians, AS
their interest is one
Their covenant manifested great fcryency
Of spirit, and a consciousness of their sinful
condition, and depenae4cc upon Almighty
Power. Not only does it manifest a clear
perception OF their duty to God, but to each
other, and the vast Importance of Union in
the cause of Christ. And oh, that the pro-
fessod followers Of the Great Master of this
his day, may possess the meek and devoted
spirit of the fathers and mothers of the early
church.
The organization took place November

The NIGHT SHADows-A wonderful fact
to reflect upon, that every human creature is
constituted to be that profound secret and
mystery to every other. A solemn consider
alton, when | enter a great city by night,
that every one of those dark clustered houses
lncloses its own secret that in every beat
ing heart in the hundreds of thousands of
breasts there is, in some of its imaginings, "a
secret to the heart nearest it Something of
the awfulncss, even of death itself, is refera-
bic to this. My friend is dead, my neighbor
is dead, my love, the darling OF my soul, is
dead it is the inexorable consolidation and
pcrpetuation of the secret that was a waysin
that individuality, and which shall carry
in mine to my lifes end. In any of the bu-

Il" From gentleman who WAS at Morgan
town On Saturday last, we learn that reg-
mental parade OF the troops of the county was
held at that place on Saturday. The crowd
was immense, and thousand troops in lire.
The General, Bur'ou Fairfax, aud Col Heck,
are both sccnssoni,t:. Tee Adjutant having
formed the troops ncar the town, Col. Heck
advanced in front OF the staff to take com.
mand. As he gave the word Attention,
the whole regiment made u rush at him,
shouting like onragel lions, He but spurs
to his horse. The frightened horse Of Gen,
Fairfax fell with and threw him, but spriuging
upon him again. lie rushed after the Colonel,
hundled yards behind him, The troops
chased them into Morgantown. This was
the end of the parade
A meeting was thea organized, and ad-
dressed by prominent Union men, declaring
that, if Eastern Virginia determined TO Sc
cedo, they would form q separate State Of
Western Virginia. A Union meeting having
been appointed for Monday night, the scces-
slonists raised mob, and swore it should not
be held; whereupon the Union men turned
out by hundrots, all armed, determined to
clear the way. The STANDARD said:
" There were at least three hundred persons
in Morgantown, on Saturday, who at the
word would have hung every secessiouist in
the county"

a gentleman who was present, and heard
what he reports, relates that the commissioners
from the rebel States having been formally in
troduccd to Mr.. Bates, the head of the house
of Barring Brothers, the great fnancier told them
to proceed. They commenced with q most
elaborate and glowing description Of the resour-
ces and wealth of the rebel States After

and justified the conduct Of Mississippi in Me

and although we have no reason to be proud Of
him or his antecedents, think may safely say
that if you have brought with you to London
the necessary funds to pay off, principal and in

WHAT THE LINcoLNITEs ARE FIGHTING FoR.-In view
OF the "eestabshed fact that the Southern soldiers
are more than match for the Lincolnites on the
battle field it is surprising to some persons that Lin
coin and his Cabinet continues the war We are mot
at all surprised at it. No doubt they are thoroughly
convinced that the South never be subjugaed that
they made a great and fatal mistake in commencing
the war, and that they deceived in regard to
Southern sentiment and Southern resources-tbev
know something about all these things now-but thew
are fighting for terms, for boundary and for their
characters (havng lost what little they had a. Bethel
at Manassas, and at Oak Hill and Leesburg) They
must have credit for cunning if for bravery and
they know very well that if they back down now they
Will have no right to demand Ito say nothing about
reqrng) terms of separaton-they fear that our gov
eminent would dictate the terms and they cannot vet
bear the idea of that though they it after
awhile. AS sure as the world lasts the Yankees will
have to submit to such terms the South chooses to
make.
Besides, they are more than anxious about where
the boundary line between the two Governments shall
be. They want to hold Maryland and Kentucky and
will make desperate efforts subdue Missouri. If
they satisfied they could hold these three States
they would begin to show disposition for peace
But think there is evidence that the people of
Maryland will never submit to a Government ruled by
such balloons Abe Lincoln, with the Wilson's Cid
dlngs, Bairs. Summers and such characters, adj
vlsers and chet-managers Neither will the people of
Missouri bow the knee to these men, and become the
subjects of of with less principle and meaner
than the Hottenoty. For Kentucky we cannot say so
much. large portion of the State has been under
abolition influence less for some time past too
many of her leading have been tinctured with
tree-soi ideas and the present Legislature of State
is controlled by those who rule in the
Massachusetts den of thieves We know there are
many good and true Southern men in Kentucky but
they appear to have been poweIless. If had part
of the State within the Southern boundary the balance
ght remain with the North for what we care and be
controlled by tb" free negroes of Ohio and such men as
CasSiuS NJ. Clay and old man Crittenden.
But the LincolniteS are fighting for boundary line
and for of settlement. If they fighting with
the expectation of subjugatng the South they are
greater fools than any supposed them to be.
Rather than submit to the North, the children of the
present generation of Southerners will continue the
contest with determination to resist influenced by
stronger hatred for their enemies than recorded of
any people in profane sacred history.

ASoTHER GREAT VIcToRY-The particulars of the
battle LeeSburg Va, Monday the 2lst inst Gust
three months after the battle of ManasSas shows that
onr brave volunteers mot quite 1900 in number)
achieved great and glorious victory the Lincoln
ties, who numbered ten twelve thousand 1t must
have been desperate fight hand hand and SHOULDER
to shoulder No Southern read the account
without feeling proud of the conduct of Southern
troops-every seems to fight like hero and as if
the fate of Confcderaey depended his ndivid-
ual excrtions. At Leesburg Virginia and three
Mississippi Regiments engaged, and that they did
their duty and sustained the reputation acquired on
the battle field of Bucna Vista, the results of the
battle furnish abundant evidence
II is said that the enemy this side of the
River for the purpose of out-hankng Beauregards
army Manassas being part of NcCennan's plan to
march to Richmond But Gen. McClennan has failed
in his first step and will meet with better success in
his second, if he undertakes it. He had better
look out. the Yankees will send him into retirement

COMING TO THEIR SEEsEs.-At the commencement of
rot be able raise respectable army and if one was
raised they said We could not maintain it three
months. But they beginning to realize their
mistake and bothered to know where the South
eruers get the snews of war. They are surprised.
The Albany a. " Journal makes the following
anxious inquiries:
Where do they get them?-The Rebels gathering
large armies. In Virginia, in Missouri, IN Tennessee
in Kentucky, their hosts number tens of thousands
brought vastly superior forces into the field, and those
have been, with few exceptions, very tolerabiy
armed and equipped.
How these vast masses aggregated! BY what
machinery they moved about? Where does the
money come from? Our expenses up to s. 100000
per day; what must be theirs with their almost count
less legiOns of troops b.?
We have given the Southerners credit for organ
ling ability Hitherto they have been dependent upon
us for most of the products of skill and genius They
have produced nothing except the fruits OF the
soil. And yet they confOuud with the prompneSs
and energy of their movements They have no pow
der mills speak of; where do they get that? They
have foundries worth mentioning, aud Norfolk is
the banks of the Mississippi where do they
get their ordnance?
The answer is obvious. While the Government was
maintaining nominal blockade, ship loads of arms
and munitions from Europe were landing at Southern
ports. Where the money came from-how mnch
friendly assistance they received from eIgn Cohsus
what assurances of moral if not material support
they obtained from q: least Great Power-are
things 5 yet hidden. Let confess that the enemy
have displayed extraordinary tact and energy
