Editors of the Register:
One of the most heinous and diaboli-
cal of Radical outrages was perpetrated
here on the Fourth; one which shows
admirably the internal and hellish
beauties of the Radical party and espe-
cially of their pet, the Grand Army of
Roughs and Rowdies.
The Sunday Schools of Fellowsville,
Evansville and this place had made ar
rapeements for picnic and had built a
platform for speaking, without any aid
or assistance from any but the persons
connected with the Sunday Schools.
The children met and were to be ad-
dressed by Revs. McGinnis and Common.
The former had proceeded about htteen
minutes, when about forty Of the u. A.
R., headed by Asbury c. Baker and
General Harris, appeared and ordered
McGinnis to stop, as Harris was gong
to speak, and they wanted that distinct-
| " understood. Had there been no Ia
dies and children present their demands
would have been resisted, and well the
pimps knew it.
Harris mounted the stand and pro-
ceeded to celebrate the occasion in true
Radical style. He made q long and vio-
lent TRADE against the Democratic par
ty, and never mentioned anything APP
propriate for the occasion. Now, Mr..
Editor, when such party of dead beats
as these, representing party, and in
the name of that party, break up
the peaceable celebration ofour Nation
al Independence by little children, isn't
| it time for all honest men to quit their
company and seek that of gentlemen
and patriots
Baker is the Superintendent of free
schools in this county, and nothing but
an ignorant snob. His intellectual
qualifications never fitted him for the
station, and surely this act of vandal'
ism proves him to be anything but tit,
ting person to superintend schools. He
is an aspirant for the Sheriffalty and
might make a good one. 1t is well
known to police officials that roughs
make the best conservators OF the
peace; or, in other words, "set thief
TO catch thief"
Harris, every honest man detests as
the foulest pimp and puko of Radical
ism. At the commencement of the war
he raised company for the Confederate
service and fed them from his own
larder. Failing to secure the appoint
ment of surgeon, he became loyal, and
has proved himself an apt scamp. He
is now seeking the United States Sena-
torship. Truly two pretty plugs to en-
gage in such celebrations"
This is but enc instance of their out.
RACES, but will suffice to show their
character in Preston. SOLDIER.

Editor of the Register
At Portland, on the Fourth, the RAIDS
showd their hand at the Democratic
County Convention. Mr.. James A.
Brown, of KingwoOd, was addressing
the Convection in a very able and elo-
queut manner, when some rowdies be-
gan talking loudly and at last inter
rupted with you're damned liar"
"God id liar" and other expressions,
too vulgar for ears polite.
Major E. w. Bartlett arose and stated
he was Republican, but that he did
not countenance such proceedings and
requested the roughs to be silent. They
did not, however, but kept it up and
very nearly caused themselves to be for
chilly elected, when Mr.. Bartlett again
arose and gave them such tongue
lashing" that they sneaked off like
whipped dogs, as they were.
Major Bartlett, although Radical, is
q gentleman. and not opposed to free
discussion. His manliness received the
appreciation of the Convention, and l
send the incident to You that you may
make it known. Q. CLucKs,

Important Discovery. rule has been
and is, not to allow the columns OF the Central
Presbyterian to be prostituted for the purpose
of advertising impositions upon the public :
Consequently quack medicines are excluded
unless, as heretofore explained, an exception
might be made for the very few that have es-
tablished some claim to an admission. We
asserted week before last that we had never
advertised any. We have edited the Central
Presbyterian for more than seven years, and
the Christian Observer after searching dill
gently has discovered the Mothers Breast
Cloth" over which it is rejoicing as one that
divideth the spoil" and thereupon proceeds
to accuse and convict us after its own sort.
Really if we have transgressed our rule even
once in so many years, it was sin without the
knowledge of 1t, for we never once suspected,
nor do we suppose the public did, that this
affair made of "Cloh" was quack-medicine.
But if our neighbor so pronounces, it would
not be modest in us to dispute the judgment
Of one whose long and intimate experience in
such matters entities him to be considered a
standard authority.
In retiring from the contest it is only polite
to congratulate him on the trteat as well as
the importance of his discovery, and suggest
that the history of the labor might be appro-
priately inserted in the next edition of that
curious book entitled" Pursuit of Knowledge
under Difficulties. +"

edition.
We are indebted to the kindness Of the au-
thor for this excellent volume 1t is beauti-
full limo. of 442 pages, published by Arson D.

Passing from the outside view to an inspec-

and impressive portraits Of the four Centurions
of the Gospel, viz: of Capernaum-of the
Cruci6xion-of Cesarea, and of Paul's voyage
The truths and incidents connected with each
of these furnish topics OF great variety, inter
est, and instruction. 1t is gratifying to see
that the work has reached second edition,
enlarged and improved by additional matter Of
much value The sterling sense of the author
is enriched and embellished by the many facts
which are appropriately introduced for illus
tration. We have marked number of places
to be copied into the Central Presbyterian at
some early opportunity.
We have not seen book lately issued from
the press so well calculated to interest and i'm
prove young men, and wish it could be widely
circulated everywhere.

Presbyterial Reports.


We are indebted to the Rev. j. Rumple,
Stated Clerk of the Presbytery of Concord,
n. c., for copy of the blank form provided
by that body for its own use. Besides the
items set down in the form ordered by the
General Assembly, we find certain questions
to which answers are to be returned by the
Sessions of the Churches. These embrace
particulars of great Importance, and if that or
any other Presbytery will faithfully and in a
kind spirit work such scheme through, and
see that it is attended to in every congregation,
it may be safely predicted that surprising re-
suits in the way of good progress will be wit
messed in the course of few years. The eues-
tons are as follows:
l. What religious services have been held
in your church the past year, and what has
been the average attendance?
2. Have you regular prayer meetings-by
whom conducted-how often, and what is the
average attendance?
3. Have you Bible Classes, and Sunday
Schools for both white and colored children,
and by whom conducted?
1. OO tue EluerS nOld religious service IN
the church in the Ministers absence? If not,
state the reason.
5. Have the Elders been faithful in visiting
families, and Catechizing children? What is
the whole number Of such visits?
g. Do the Deacons hold regular meetings for
business? Do they provide for the wants of
the poor, and the education OF their children?
I. What salary do you promise your Minis
ter? Has it been punctually paid? Is it suf-
6cient for his support?
8. Have you appointed Delegate to each
Presbytery and Synod, and held him to account
for attendance?
9. Have you paid the expenses of your Min
lister and Elders attending the Courts of the
Church?
10. If vacant, what efforts have been made
to procure pastor or supply, and what can
your church pay him?
Il. If your church has failed to contribute
to the aid of any one of the Committees Of the
Assembly, what is the reason?
u What other items of interest can you
add, concerning the state of religion, revivals,
growth In grace, ETC., etc.
n B. Cause the Report TO be read to your
Congregation, signed by the Clerk of Session
and transmitted to the Spring Meeting of Pres
bytery. BY order of Concord Presbytery.

To the Chairmea Of the Presbyterial Commit
tee of Domestic Missions.
The General Assembly, at its meeting in
Nashville, Tenn, November last directed the
Committee of Sustentation to devote five per
cent. of its receipts to the relief of the widows
and children of deceased ministers in INDECENT
circumstances. l
With the view of carrying into effect this
direction of the Assembly, you are requested
to forward, with as little delay as possible, all
applications in behalf Of such persons in the
bounds of your respective Presbyteries. 1t is
desirable that all such applications should be
before their Committee at their next meeting
on the first Tuesday in April next. The amount
of funds to be disbursed will not be large, but
sufficient, it is hoped, to relieve all cases Of ex
treme restitution.
Yours truly and sincerely.

BaP SEASONABLE REMEMBRANCE.-
While the payments made by many sub
scribers of the Central Presbyterian, have
been most seasona5le relief from bur
dens which would otherwise have been
too oppressive to bear, let none for a
moment suppose it possible for paper
to get along without steady income.
The number from whom no payment for
the year has been received is still sur
prisingly large, and many are indebted
for two or three years. Can they not
remit what is due, and what we very
much need?

Authorship of "Junius. THE authorship OF
the famous letters of "Junius" has been
claimed for forty-two different persons. The

in his favor than in that of any other man.

The LORDS PRAYER.-A large and embel-
lished engraving of the Lords Prayer, has
been sent us, with request to give it favor
able notice and act as agent for its sale. , we
can do neither, for two reasons. One IS that
the price, 50 90, is about twice as much as the
engraving is worth. This is evident not only
by inspection, but from the commission offered
to agents, rs cents copy, and upon large sue
cess, 81.
The other is an objection OF the gravest
character. There is at the head of the piece
an attempt to represent the all glorious but
invisible God-the Supreme Father, whom
TO man hath seen nor can see" by an en-
graved likeness, 1.-THE device of mems hands. .
This we consider to be sinful, and in the face
of his own express commandment. 1t is all
the more repulsive from the fact that it is the
likeness of barely respectable looking old
man with long beard.
A copy of the Lords prayer executed with
simplicity, in the highest style of art, and to
be hung up in the parlor, study, or chamber
would be very proper. But as to this, we have
no place for such folly Our people, 1t is
hoped, will use the copy already in the Bible,
and keep their 81 for something else. The
copy received is sent by Fred. Gerhard, OF
