BAD POLICY.

We regret to see in the communications
of several writers for the papers, upon the
subject of our next Congressman, disposi-
tion TO strike, by innuendo and otherwise, at
MIR. FIsHER, our ate Representative. This
is all wrong. Mr. Fisher is not now in the
field. He holds seat on the Bench, at
Washington, and may be fairly considered
out of the present party campaign in this
State ; therefore he should not be assailed
by political writer's when giving expression
to their preferences in reference to the can.
didate Of the Union party. 1t should be
remembered that Mr.. Fisher has friends in
this State as well as enemies, and they will
not perhaps, feel called upon to be any the
more active or enthusiastic in the canvass
because of these unnecessary filings at hin
just now. Besides, remarks and insinua-
tions Of the character alluded to, invite re.
jonders and controversy, at time when all
should be harmony and unity. We submit
therefore, that, besides being unfair, it i.
impolitic and wrong for writers to indulge
their prejudices thus inopportunely.

At the time of the late battle between
Rosecrans and Bragg, General Burnside
was long distance east of Knoxville,
and could not have reinforced Rosecrans
even if he had known that a battle was
going on. 1t appears that he had no in-
formation of the battle till long after it
was over. General Hartsuif is in COM
mand at Knoxville. Burnside is safe in
his present position, and can, by concen-
trating his forces at Cumberland Gap,
repel an attack.

THE VOICE OF TIE cLERGY.

Among the extraordinary Incidents of the
times Il the TACT that the Democratic State Cen
tral Committee has circulated through pennsyl
vania, as a campaign document, the letter of
B shop Hopkins, Of Vermcnt in which it is
maintained that slavery, in language of Judge
Woodward. is Ru incalcuiable blessing. The
sentiments OF Bishop Hopkins on this subject
are so attrociOus, aud their adoption and pro-
mitigation by men protesting to be Christians is
si scandalOus, TINT the Episcopal clergy of
Philadelphia and vicinity have felt themsevea
constrained to define their position, as they have
done III the 70 lowing manly and outspoken pro-
test:
Tile subscribers deeply regret that the fact
Of the extensive circulation through the diocese
Of a letter by John Henry Hopkins, Bishop of
the diocese Of Vermont in defence of southern
slavery oompes them to make this public pro-
test 1t is not in their public province TO mix in
my political canvass. Butas ministers Of Christ,
in the Protestant Episcopal Church. it becomes
them to deny any completely or sympathy with
such defence
This attempt not only to apologize for slavery
in the ABSTRACT but to advocate il ns il exists in
the cotton States, aud in States which sell men
and women in the open market as their staple
product, is, in their judgement, unworthy of any
servant Of Jesus Christ As an effort to sustain,
on Bible principles the States in rebellion

name of republic, whose corner. stone shall
be the perpetual bondage Of the African, it chal-
lenges their indignant reprobation.

WHY MOTT

MIR. EDITOR:
In all the suggestions yet published,
OF names Of gentlemen for Congress, to represent
the Union sentiment of Delaware-aud most of
them are good and honorable men-I fud none
from this County Of the old Whig stamp mem
toned; not a single worker in the harness Of
other and more glorious days Of party campaigu-
Ing. |. therefore, without consultation with
uny one, beg TO suggest the name of JoHN r.
LATIMRR for Congress. He ha' stood unswer,
vngly by bis principles and his political faith,
when siout-hearted men have iail and quailed /;
and when the slave power Of the South demand.
ed the surrender Of the old whig party into
the biecches pocket of secession, he stood like n
massive wall against the outrageous demand ;
aud, spurniag it, he dared to lead the corporals
guard of Republicans in Delaware, who saw the
storm appFoaching aud warned their fellow cih.
2ens against il. And to-day he is among the
tirmest Of the firm, in his adherence to the
Union, for the prosperity and glory of which he
has spent his time and means in other days, and
now still freely contributes to, against traitors
and copperheads in arms against the govern
meut. Such man can never be false to bis
principles; hence beg to suggest his name for
Congress. RUsTIcus.
