What the Minister'S Saw.

The Philadelphia Christian Chronicle tells us
that, al a special meeting of the Conference Of
Baptist Ministers of Philadelphia and vicinity,
held December %, 1852, an unusually large
number being present, the following resolutions
were unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That we accept the recent reverses
that have hefallen our arms as significant indl-
cations that God is teaching this Nation, that
" the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to
the strong."
Resoived, That these disasters conspre with
other events, TO indicate that it is the will of
Providence that the American Union is TO be
preserved only by The operthFoW Of Me institution Of
human Slavery.
Rssoirsd, That we hereby reassure the Presl-
dent OF our cordial approval of his proposed
Proclamation Of Emancipation and while deplo-
ring the causes that have rendered II military
necessity, that We nevertheless reoce in the fact
that il is measure 10 itself, 10 perfect harmony
with the eternal principles of right with the
best interest of the white and coloied population

confidence in his purpo e not to be deferred from
issuing the eaid Proclamation Of Emancipation,
on the first day Of January 1868, either by the
enlreates Of friends, the threatenngs Of foes, or
by the present trial of the Nations faith but
that he will throw himself and the country, upon
the Providence Of that God who brought his
ancient people to the Red Sea, aud then bade
them go forward"
ResoiVed, That we recommend the observance
Of the last day Of this year as a day of earnest
prayer TO the Almighty God for Ills blessing
upon the anticipated Proclamation and the
observance of the first day Of January next, as
day of Thanksgiving in viow of its utieranoe.
ResolVed. That copy Of these revolutions be

a new Telegraph Llns-usIy Poles

We observe by the proceedings of OCun-
ell, that an agent of the " Independent Tel
egraph Company" has asked permission to
extend the wires of that company through
this city, and that the matter was referred
to the Street Committee with power to act.
We hope that one Of the imperative condi
tions upon which this company shall be per-
mitted to use our streets, if at all, with its
wires, will be that it shall plant dcccm iook-
ing poles aioag die carJs and at points that
will not obstruct private passage ways or be
an oye-sore to the residents ON whose pre-
misses they may be erected.
Some of the present poles are u disgrace
TO the city and ought not to be tolerated.
If Councils were to offer premium for ugly
and unsightly poles they could not succeed
in obtaining anything more i'll shapen and
repulsive to the eye than some of the Tele-
graph poles now standing in various parts
of the city, many Of which are placed in front
of the doors of neat and handsome dwelling
houses. We hope the Street Committee will
look to this matter; meanwhile we would
advise onr citizens to be on the alert anC
demonstrate ,cit,out deldy against the intro
duction of any more of these crooked, knotty
unpainted nuisances about their doors ant
premises for the benefit of any corporation
that will so disregard the rules of taste anc
neatness for the sake of making money.

OARR1ERs' ADDREss.--0ur carriers desire
us to say that they will wait upon the patrons
of the JOURNAL on New Years day with a
neatly printed address in consideration Of
which they hope to be remembered by the
bestowment of the usual liberal New Years
gift. Their success in former years has been
most satisfactory to them, and for which
they return thanks, and promise that now,
as in the past they will properly employ the
money they may receive, to the very hest
advantage.
In reference to the Address itself, we may
here add, that it was written by Il young
lady, graduate of one of our first class col
leges in this city. Although it is her first
effort at poetic composition, it bears evil
dences of thought and talent which, by pro-
per cultivation, will ultimate in success on
the part of the author, in that department Of
literature. There is vein of chasteness
and feeling perceptible throughout the Ad-
dress, not often found in effusions of this
character, and which will commend it to the
reader We ask for it kind criticism anC
an encouraging word
