EDITORS EVANSVILLE JoURNAL:--In an
article published on Tuesday last in your
paper, noticed and pointed out to you two
mistakes in the article on the New Harmony
Soeiety-one as to the time they left New
Harmony, in Indiana, for Economy, Penn
sylvania-which stated it to be in 1886.
1t should have been in 1925. The other
was where it stated the first congregation
George Rapp collected in Germany was
male, instead of female. These you correct
ed at my suggestion in your weekly issue.
Since then have discovered another mis-.
take, as to the time they went to New Har-
mony, Indiana it is printed 1s24-it
should be 1914 These mistakes doubtless
have been caused by my bad chirogTaphy.
As the matter is connected somewhat with
the history of this country, I thought you
would give me an opportunity to correct
the above errors.

MILITARY.-We understand the Legion
is being recognized. One or two compa-
niles are being recruited, and it is expected
that they viii be ready to march by Mon
day. .4,s4 -
While we highly approve of. the re-
organization, we doubt the propriety of
calling the military from the borders to
guard prisoners at Indianapolis. We think
if there is necessity for this duty. tho in
terror should be called on, while the border
counties thoroughly organized, should be
held in readiness to meet any emergency
which may turn up.

I he Old and New Year.

How full of thrilling incidents is the departed
year! How many who entered upon it with us
have closed their eyes on earthly scenes. How
many happy, unbroken families at the commence
ment of the year 1861, are now scattered and sun
dered-some gone to their eternal rest-others
far distant from their early homes and dear asso-
Citations. How often has the parting hand been
given--the tear of sorrow shed! and how many
times have our lips uttered and our ears heard
that chilling word, fre,ceH. Many homes there
are where the life-lamp has gone out in gloom,
and the sun of gladness has faded in q mist of
tears. But "hope springs eternal in the human
breast" and from the dark and portentious clouds
which overshadow as we look for light to break
forth Unfounded as this hope may appear it
buoys us up, notwithstanding the uncomfortable
horrors of the present hour, and points to the
coming of better days. The prayers of all good
men ascend to Him who chastseth the nations,
and in turn blesseth them for fanaticism, conten-
ton and war to be banished from our land. If
tue present year shall witness great interposi.
tion of Providence which will strike dumb the
Aboitionts, palsy the arms of rebels at war
against the Government and mete out justice to
those who are swindling the Government, then,
indeed, may the "hoods clap their hands; the hills
be joyful together.''

Whittem,s Church.

There is report aaoat, but we do not know how
much trnth there is in it, that the Free Presbyter
an church, which we noted the burning Of last week.
was fred by negro. The story goes in this wise:
Mr.. BIGHAM, who is well known as great lover of
his colored sisters and brothers, had darky
about his house for Il short time back. On the
day of the burning of the church Mr.. BleHAM had
some company at his house and at dinner made
the negro wait for the second table, At this the
colored brother became very indignant, was sulky
all afternoon, disappeared about six o'clock of the
evening the church was burnt, and has not been
since seen about Mr.. BlGHAM's premises. 1t is
further said that the darky was noticed by some
persons near the church few inmates before the
fire was discovered.
That the church was fired by some person there
is little doubt. While every good citizen will |
deprecate all such acts candor compels us to say
that aside from the members of the church and
few who sympathize with them there have been
but few tears shed for the loss of the building.
Before Mr. WHTrEM went into that commu.
nifty than it there was none more peaceable and
orderly in the county, but since then the commu-
nifty has been prone to quarreling tattling, lying
and mischief. making. The church. under Mr..
WnlTTEM's administration, has been pesthouse of
hbolitonism, where sambo and him crucfed have
been continually preached. How much of the bad
state of feeling is attributable to Mr.. Written
and to his fanatical teachings we do not pretend
to say, but there is no question that in the eyes
of many he is chaFgeable with the greater part OF
it. Most abolitonists are Inclined to lie, tattle.
and attend to other people business, and judging
from some things MIR. Written recently said in
this place, and what we have good reason to be-
lieve he has said elsewhere. we have been led to
suppose that he partakes ofthat inclination. For
these reasons the masses look with great indffer-
ence upon the burning of the church, considering
the magnitude of tue crime.
