our Southern Church. we are gratiied to notice
that with veIE sight exceptions oand in one)
there is an absolute exclusion OF this whole
class of advertisements. Our neighbor is Of
course free 10 exercise his own taste aud iudg.
ment in admitting them. We shall no more,
at any future ume, name, designate, or allude
10 his paper tor SO doipg than was done 10 the
article ALREADY published. The subject, how,
ever, is Ole Of public interest, which, OF
course, the Cearal Presbyterian will discuss
whenever it Is judged proper, even at the haz-
ard of having hard things said about " tie sin

last issue OF the Observer, more Extensively
still Whatever has been written by us since
the first article, has been simply IN reply to a
strange, and direct personal attack but
yet not without melSi6cation, it is confess
ed. For While the evil we sought to expose
was hot at all unworthy the attention of the
religious press, yet we have no ambition to
shine in controversy, and least of all with a
paper of our own Church, about DR.. Blood
Orygenized Air, on even DR.. Costor's Rat
E.cteyu,inutorS. And SO We beg leave hereby
to give those moIneltous personages, and all
who may be "su g>neriS," a duly respectful

ERRORS CORRECTED.

Might not the Christian Observer, which we
hal neither named nor even alluded to, have
abstaiued from offensive personalities in any
remarks it saw fit to make on the subject of
quack medicines? Pursuing this same strain
in it's last issue, it imputes to US motive in
exposing these swindles upon the public so
low and unworthy as must completely exempt
that personality from all notice. Nor should
any further notice have been taken Of the sub
ject, were there not some obligation felt to
correct the following erroneous statements:
l. The Observer says of itself, we pur
posely withheld the name of the paper whose
structures upon our advertisements led 10 the
explanations We published two weeks ago
Yet the Central Presbyterian constructs them
iu,o an invitation to discussion with Itself
Sc.
Is not this marvellous SO 1t seems its re-
marks are to be considered entirely unperson-
al! las those OF the Central Presbyterian were,
so far as the Christian Observer was concerned.
But the Central Presbyterian was unmistakably
designated in the reference made to ga Pes
byteriaa paper chat had published a certain
kind Of article, and the Observer actually quoted
whole sentences from our article
3 Speaking of the Central Presbyterian,
the Observer says-"it charges the druggists
vino compound specific remedies with being,
as a class, Ubiquitous impostors, &c.
Our readers know that W. said nothing about
the druggists. What we said was aimed
at the authors of these medicines, who, as
class, were denounced as "iniquitous impos-
tors. W IL was expressly stated, however, chat
there were a few, very few exceptions. BY
all that We abide.
3. The Observer makes the following asser-
ton concerning the Editor of the Central
Presbyterian, viz: Until lately ne has been
advertising one or more Of the patent medi-
cines which disgrace (?) our columns. Is it
possible that he has consented to do, for mon
ey what he believed to be forbidden by com
mon morality -
Itis a sufficient answer TO say that We have
never inserted any such advertisement
The article IN the CeatrQj PfesJweriaa was
written from sense of public duty; it had
wide application, for the impostures are enor-
nous, and so is the number of papers, secular
and religious, which advertise them. None of
hem, so far as we know, has considered it
personal attack except the Christian Observer,
hough every one of them had equal reason.

Church Balls

Our readers will recollect paragraph pub

count of "a ball gotten up by Church people
in the Diocese OF Tennessee, for the benefit OF

Bishop Quintard Of that Diocese, has ad-
dressed most excellent letter to the Church.

abuses in the Church. and we commend the
following extracts to our readers, as most salu-
tary Christian counsel Tor all denominations.
How any body OF protested Christians,
who claim TO have put off concerning the
former conversation the old man which is cor
rupt according to the deceittul lusts and to
have put on the new man, which after God il
created IN righteousness and true holiness
could have been edt dted d0Un to such a
scandal, is what | cannot understand. With
God S word open, with house set apart for
his worship, where we cannot but believe Him
to be especially present-with sacraments and
ordinances which are channels of grace and
overlooking with Heavenly food-with all these
blessed inStrumentallties for growth in grace
and in Christ.lkeness-l cannot understand
how a congregation could so outrage the prin-
ciples of Christianity, and OF that Church

precious blood, 7 know full vel, my dom

Houses are desoated and hearts are bleeding,

For THE Central PRESBYTERIAN.


Mr.. Editor,-Allow me to call the attention
of your readers to The request, recently pub
lished in your paper, from the Young Mem
Christian Association of Washington College,
for donations Of books to furnish them a H.
brary.
The fact OF their publishing such request
shows that the Association has vitality And
if every Christian family reached BY its appeal
would send even one volume, il would most
readily be provided with large library. But
the books ought to be good aud valuable ones,
not the refuse, bur some Of the choice ones
Of the library from which they are contribu.
ted.
A difficulty suggests itself as to the proba-
bility Of many copies Of the same book being
sent in. But THE might be obyiated by send
ing TO the Secretary of the Association a list
of the books proposed to be sent; or if dupli-
Gates were sent, they might be very usefulIy
bestowed by the Association, under instruc
tons to that effect, on some of its members,
-ctOddaces for the ministry, or others, who
might make good use Of them.

The General discussion Of this matter ex-

accusation, but presents much that is exceed
iugly interesting about things connected with

to the charge alleged, is thus summed up in
his own words:

In making these extracts, or III any notice of
the subject, it is not for the purpose of dealing
with it 10 a religious paper, as military ques-
ton. But General Hill is known to many of
our readers personally, to all of them by repu-
tatiOn as Christian gentleman, and long a ru-
ling elder in the Presbyterian Church
If the accusation he meets so fully we're
true, 1t would leave an indellible stain upon his
character. not only as gallant soldier but
also as good Christian. He has night to a
vindication of his good name. We cheerluliy

having cleared the way by these preliminary
remarks, the merits Of the performance viii
come more fully into hand next week. In the
mean time we venture just here TO give Ariel

The avowed doctrine he adyances-the de-
liberate conclusion to which he comes, is that
actually and properly the status Of the ne,

man, but Of beast! lie has no soul Very

THE Lest DISPATCH.


Mr.. +. A. POLLARD 10 bis work called The
Lost Cause, uses the following language con-
cerning the battle OF Aptietam
" A copy of the order directing the move
ment of the army FROM Frederick had been
sent to D. H. Hill aud this vain and petu-
liant officer In moment Of passion, had
thrown the paper Oh the ground. 1t was pick
ed Up BY a Federal -Ddier, and Mcclellan thus
strangely became possessed OF the exact detail
Of his adversary's plan Of operations
General Hill has certainly not been "petu-
!ant " and Ike one in passion towards
the person who, though .uuder the responsible.
ty Of a histoilsp.to be far, bas so freely im-
puted to him aot only serious per onal fault,
but intolerable official misconduct also. Ii is
surprising how he has 50 long kept silence
when he had IL all the while in his rover to
crush and aunibiats this grave charge He
has az length come forward in the last number
Of The Lind We Loue, aud addressed himself
to duty in our opinion too long postponed :;
but he does his work at last in complete
manner In regard to Mr. Pollard state
ment he makes the following remarks
FIRST. The harsh epithets which he 90
plies TO me are unworthy Of the dignity of
the historian and prove prejudiced state Of
mind.
g .Secoad If petui&ntly threw down this
ORDER deserved not merely to be cashiered,
but to be shot to death with musketry. And
II seems strange that General lie, who ought
to have known the facts IS well as Mr.. Il. A.
Pollard, never. brought me to trial for it
Tis still stranger that Mr. Davis, nearly year
after the alleged occurrence, promoted me to
a Lieutenant-G dneralcy, and sent me to com.
mand corps ar Cblckamauga.

this statement by trustworthy eyewituesses,
