TO THE RIGHT REVEREND
ALONzO POTTER, d. D.,

Bishop OF the Diocese of Penna.;
1 have seen, with great amazement,
protest against my letter on the "Bible
view of Slavery" signed by you and
long list of your clergy, in which you
condemn it as "unwonhy as any SerOaT.t
OF Jesus Christ" as Gan effort to sustain,
on Bible principles, the States in rebellion
against the Government in the wicked at
tempt to establish, by force Of arms, ty-
ranny in the name of Republic, whose
corner stone shall be the perpetual bond
age of the African" and as such you say
that it challenges your "andignant repro
batiOn."
Now my Right Reverend brother, am
sorry to be obliged to charge you, not on
ly with a gross ins ult against your senior,
but with the more serious offence Of false
accusation. My letter was first published
in January, 1861 more than three months
before the war began, at time when no
one could anticipate the form Of Govern
ment which the Southern States should
adopt, or the course which Congress might
take in reference to their secession. And
when l consented to its republication, |
did not suppose that it would be used in
the service of any political party although
| had no right to complain, if it were SO
used, because the letter, once published,
became public property But in its pres
ent form there is nothing whatever in it
which bears on the question ol rebellion,
or of the perpetual bondage of the Airi-
can, or of tyranny under the name OF a
Republic of which slavery should be the
"corner- stone" On the contrary, re-
ferred, on the last page, to my lecture pub
lished in Buffalo in 1850, and to my book
called "The American Citizen" published
in New York, in 1857, where 81 set forth
the same views on the subject of slavery
adding, however, plan for its grad'ta
| abolition whenever the South should con-

Bishop Hopkins and the Institution of
Slavery.

The subscribers deeply regret that the
fact Of the extensive circulation through
this Diocese, of letter by "John Henry
Hopkins, Bishop of the Diocese of Yer
mont,' in defense of Southern slavery,
compels them to make this public protest.
1t is not their province to mix in any po-
litical canvass. But as ministers Of Christ,
in the Protestant Episcopal Church, it be-
comes them to deny any completely or
sympathy with such defence.
This attempt not only to apolgize for
Slavery in the abstract, but to advocate it
as it exists in the cotton States, and in
States which sell men and women IN the
open market as their staple product, is, in
their judgment, unworthy Of any servant Of
Jesus Christ, AS an effort to sustain on
Bible principles, the States in rebellion
against the Government, in the wicked at
tempt to establish by force OF arms tyr
ranny under the name of q Republic,
whose "corner-stone' shall be the perpet-
ual bondage Of the African, it challenges
their indignant reprobation.

YANKEE RA1Ds.-We think the enemy hope 10
do the South more harm by their cavalry raids, by
dashing through the country and destroying crops
and of provisions, than in any other way; and
we it stated that they organizing cavalry force
OF one hundred thousand, for the purpose no doubt,
Of invading the interior of the southern States and
laying waste the growing crops and destroying pro-
perty generally. In order to resist aud check these
raids, could not the at home form dragon COM
panies, and arm with shot-guns or any sort of a
weapon, and be prepared to meet at short notice
ready for action. Such organizations through the
country from here to the Tennessee line may be
found useful and might save the destruction of
much property. The Hon. L. NJ. Curry, in a COM
muncation to the Richmond Wing, states that the
volunteer cavalry companies of Alabama composed
of persons who not in the regular SERVICE did
much towards defeating the yankee raiders in that

UPHEAVINGS AT THE NORTH.--The northern
people have held several meetings In opposition to
the proceedings of their Government in the Vallan-
digham case and the general policy of the Lincoln
administrations 1--WE such meetings have been held
i'll New York cty-the last one adopting some of
the boldest resolutions yet put forth by any north
ern community. These resolutions declare oppos-
ton to the arrest of Valandigham and pledge their
lives, fortunes and sacred honors to resist such ag
gressions; opposition to the continuance of the war
upon the South and in favor of a war with Great
Britain (wonderfuD; and opposition to address
lately issued by democratic members of the Legisla-
ture pledgng support to the administration in pro-
scouting the war, &c.
Some speeches were made which went further
than the resolutions. Jumes Brooks, the editor of
the n. Y. Express said if the northern people did
not resist the tyranny of the administration it
would soou be too late to resist He concluded by
saying,
LAS long as they leave US the ballot box vic
tory is and if they do not leave us the ballot
box, by the eternal God will be willing to lead an
army if you will trust to my leadership, to resist all
such tyranny in active opposition"
large meeting was held at Albany, N. Y, and
letter from Gov. Seymour was read, from which
extract these two sentences:
elf this proceeding (the imprisonment of Vallan-
dgham) is approved by the Government and sane
toned by the people, it is merely step towards
revolution, it is revolution; it will not only lead to
military despotsm. it establishes military despot-
ISM The action of the administration will de-
terInne in the minds of more than one-half of the
people ofthe loyal States whether this is waged
to put down rebellion at the South or destroy free
institutions at the North"
Inasmuch as ''the administrator has endorsed
the proceedings against Vallandigham. we think
Gov. Seymour and more than ore-half of the peo-
pie of the loyal States ought to feel convinced as
to the objects of the war.
AT indianapolis, Indiana, large democratic mass
meeting was held and speeches made in oppo-
s,tion to the measures of the ADMINISTRATION
Hon. ID. w. VOORHEES, presided. During the day
several persons hurrahed for JEFF Davis and were
arrested by Lincoln officers.
All these proceedings look very threatening on
paper but we may expect item to end without &C
comprising anything. lincoln has his hand on the
Liberties OF the northern people and is striving hard
| to epslave' also, the people OF the South.

INTERESTING DECISION. following opinion
of the Adutant General of North Carolina deciding
that Foreigners and all persons who have put
substitutes in the Army still liable to perform
Militia duty, will be found interesting.
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT NORTH CAROLINA,
Adjutant G enerafs Office, Militia, May 25 1868.
Colonai-Your communication making inquiry as
to the liability of foreigners and persons who have
placed substitutes in the Confederate army" to DO
militia duty, has been received.
BEL By the 10th chapter, sec. ], Revised Code, no
one is subject to militia duty unless he is ''ctizen"
of the State or of the limited States"-but at the
session of the General Assembly held in 156O-'6I,
the law was so amended as to embrace sail free
white males and apprentices between certain ages
''who reside in the State,' &c.
1t is clear that Foreigners would not be embrace
ed under the term Citizen" but it is equally clear
that they are residents and are embraced under
the act Of I860-6l. They are therefore liable. AS
to those who have placed substitutes in the Confea-
crate army, am not aware of any law by which they
exempt from militia duty. The hate Legisla-
ture sassed ''Act to amend Act entitled Mili-
tia In section. Sd the Legislature enumerates
the classes of persons which their intention
to exempt
Those furnishing substitutes are not enumerated.
We musttherefore take it that the Legislature in
tended that they should perform militia duty.
will state further that Justices of the Peace and
persons owning twenty negroes are not exempt
from Militia duty. Men detailed by the Confede
rate Government exempt, because they ara still
regarded soldiers, and are liable to be ordered
into active service at any time.

B6s- We learn that the rust, that great scourse
of the wheat crop, has made its appearance in some
portions of the District, but not to thar extent
which need occasion any serious apprehensions
Much of the wheat is too far advapced to be IN
jured by it. The dry weather which we have
had for a few weeks, is said to favor the wheat
crop, and the belief seems to be universal that the
yledin the District will be unprecedentedly large.
