The General Assembly of the New School
Presbyterian Church, at its recent session
in the city of Dayton, adopted the follow
ing resolutions:
WHEREAS, The iniquitous rebellion,
prompted by reckless ambition, in the de-
fence and furtherance of human slavery,
continues to lift itself against the legitimate
and liberal Government of the United States,
and E
WHEREAS, Such rebellion not only vio-
lates the sacred principle of obedience to
the authorities ordained of God, but also
directly advocates hindrance of the free
progress of Gods Holy Word, and thus, as
anti Christ, opposes itself to the truth, and
WHEREAS, 1t becomes the Church of Christ
to utter no uncertain voice in regard to a
grand public fact, so intimately and essen
TALLY connected with its interests, therefore
Resolved, l, That this General Assembly
heartily reaffirms the principle, and renews
the declarations of previous General As
semblies, so far as applicable to the present
aspect of public affairs.
3D. That we recognize clearly the good
hand OF our God in all the victories OF the
national arms, whereby the llmlts OF tne
rebellion have been contracted and its VI
tality impaired, and we look humbly and
confidently to the same Divine source for
further success until the cause of the ma
tion shall be vindicated, and peace estab-
lished on the grave of treason.
Sd. That we also recognize the same good
hand of our God in the disappointments
and delays of the war, by which he has
made more sure the complete destruction OF
the system of human bondage, and render
ed less confident and more religious the
heart of the nation.
4th. That in such recognition and hope we
do by no means lose sight of our national
and Individual sins which render us so ut
terly unworthy the Divine favor, but con-
fess them with penitent hearts, and trust TO
covenant God In Christ Jesus, that this
unworthiness will not hinder the might OF
Gods grace in behalf of the cause of right
and order.
9TH. That we exhort all our churches to
renewed zeal and faithfulness in supplica-
tions to God for the deliverance of the land,
and prosperity of Christ's kingdom, through
the blessings of national peace and frater-
nifty.
9Th. That we cordially uphold the Gov
ernment with our sympathies and prayers
in its energetic efforts for the suppression
of this most causeless and cruel rebellion,
and urge all Christians to refrain from
weakening the authority of the Admins
tration by ill-timed complaints and unne-
cessary criticism; fully believing that III
such a crisis all speech and action which
tend to difference should be studiously
avoided for the sake of the coming veal
9TH. That copy of these resolutions,
duly Authenticated, be sent to the Presi-
dent of the United States by special COM
mittee.
1t was ordered that these resolutions be
read from the pulpit in all our churches.

WE learn from persons who witnessed
the execution of the negro near Sheperds-
vile on last Friday, that the condemned
criminal, while on the scaffold, made full
confession of the awful crime he had been
convicted of. Llc stated that he overlook
Mrs. Hoaglan as she was returning home,
and coming up behind her he struck her
on the head with club, after which he raw
ished her person. After accomplishing his
hellish object he beat her to death with the
club that he had first struck her with. The
murder was most cold-blooded and cow
ardly one. The execution was witnessed
by thousands of persons, many of whom
were prepared to take the law into their
own hands should anything occur to pre-
vent the execution. = Louisville Journal,

THE ABANDoNMENT OF TExAs.-While
Texas has virtually been abandoned for
some time, there is still small force at
Passn Cavalln. end on Brazos Island: near
negroes, engaged. in destroying the exten-
siye preparations which have been made
to remain there. At Passo Cavallo they had
put up machinery to make fresh water from
the salt, and railroad was in progress from
Brazos to the "Boca del Rio" mouth of the
Rio Grande, and thence to Brownsville, all
of which will be destroyed, rather than be
left for Confederate use. 1t would seem to
be clearly understood that in abandoning
Texas now, it is surrendered forever, unless
moral suason should induce it to return to
the arms of the Union. 1t will be time
enough to undertake the subjugation of
Texas when all the States east of the Mis-
sissippi are fully reduced to quiet posses
sion.

The News.

The situation about Richmond is becom-
ing painfully interesting. Our dispatches
this morning give several important facts,
Indicating that affairs there are rapidly ap-
preaching the final crisis. The driving in
of Lees outposts by Gen. Grant is given
much prominence by the telegraph, but it
only proves that an attempt to storm the
works Immediately in front of our present
line will be the signal for the bloodiest and
most terrific battle of the war.

Sunday Reflections and Sugges

'It is more Blessed to Give than to Receive"
ssThis text says an eminent Divine,
'tafords motive to liberality, which ought
TO be irresistible"
I all objects in the natural world,
mean, little-souled man is the most detesta-
BILE. He that has enough and to spare, and
will not relieve human suffering where he
sees it with his own eyes, is sunworthy to be
classed with natures noblemen. He is a
mere blot on the surface of time, whose
only study is to provide for himself; and he
Wilde unlamented, as he lives unrespect-
ed, the scorn of the good and the pity of the
wise.
God has implanted in the human breast
an uncomfortable and Unsuitable desire for
happiness; and to provide for its gratifica-
tion, He has been pleased to arrange His
Government, from the exercise of Omnipo-
tence itself to the functions of the lowest
grade of intelligence, upon the principle of
Beneyolence. In other words, He has so
fashioned man, and the external world,
that he is happier in giving than in with
and how. glorious the result would be, if
all the people realized the Importance of
the principle. All suffering from want, and
much of crime, would at once be banished
from our world. What one had not, anoth-
er would have to give him. "Peace on
earth and good will toward men," would
rise from every heart, and resound from
ocean to ocean, until humanity should be-
come one universal Brotherhood, and wars
dread alarms, and the shedding OF fraternal
blood, should forever cease.
But although we may not hope for the
realization of such state of being just yet
especially, as Preachers and Sunday
School Teachers, Church Judicatories aud
Sunday School Conventions, preach and
commend the Gospel of Hate instead Of the
Gospel of Christ--we should not on that
account neglect individually; to con-
tribute our mites towards fastening the
period. 1t is only by individual con-
tributions that it can ever be brought
about. Let every man consider HIM
self bound, by the God who made him,
the highest Interests of his nature here, and
his expectations of immortal bliss. to aid IN
filling the vessels of charity. Let him es-
peciaIly consider, that he has something to
do; that It is his business to comfort the
afflicted; to search out the needy wherever
they be; to prevent human suffering when
ever and wherever he knows he can. And
not only to stop the current of sorrow, but
to add to the positiye measure of others,

ADRorr RoGUEs--A letter from Rome,
in the PerseveranSa of Milan, relates the
following audacious attack: "a priest. when
returning home In the evening, was stopped
by band of thieves, who began to rifle his
pockets. While so occupied, the rascals,
perceiving French patrol approaching,
compelled the priest to intone portion of
the litany, which he did, they kneeling
around him meanwhile, and devoutly re-
spending ssOra pro nobisl'' The soldiers,
taking them for a group Of devotees, many
of whom thus pray in public, passed on;
and the moment they were out of sight the
thieves completed their operation, and left
the priest without single bajocco." e

My DEAR SIR: / am dispensing second invoice Of
your Stomach Btters among the large numbero
men who daily arrive at this Institution for refresh
ment and rest. The universal testimony is that these
Bitters are the hest made. For the various summer
complaints which ailict so many, know of no rem
edy so safe and so sure. Plutarch says, ITO ask
physician what is easy and what is hard Of digestion
and what will agree with the stomach, is about as
sensible as to ask what is sweet or bitter or sour.
Persons who look out for breakers-and have your
Stomach Bitters in the house-I am sure will nevar
ask any one the foolish question spoken of by the
great philosopher. | must not omit a word or two
for your Catawba Brandy. l have many men here
who have brandy prescribed for them by distinguish
ed Army Surgeons. The effects of yours on such are
most beneficial, far than from any previously
taken Persons who desire really pure Brandy

SAYS a Washington dispatch:

"Simon Cameron's friends assert that he
will preside at the Baltimore Convention"
He ought to. So corrupt was his admin
istration of the War Department that Re
publican Congress felt compelled to cen
sure him; and his subsequent, attempt to
gain the United States Senate by bribery
excited, at the time, the adherence of the
country. He ought to preside at the Balti-
more Convention, certainly. The most cor
sition in this country, he ought to preside
over the most corrupt assemblage ever
known in American politics. - Chicago

substitute for coffee, is now raised in this
country. The New York Shipping List
says:
'.We have examined sample of the
American chicory. 1t is much clearer than
the foreign, being entirely free from mold,
and was raised in Cook county, Illinois, by
Messrs. Floto & Co. The soil of that sec
tion is said to be admirably adapted to its
cultivation, and Messrs. Floto & Co, have
conclusively demonstrated, during the last
