Another Patriotic Minister of the Gospel.
As we have said before this, patriotism is
confined to no class of our people—all scorn
animated by the same spirit of devotion to
the cause of our country, and the only dis
pute amougst us is as to who shall do the most.
Among those foremost in the good work, wc
must mention the Rev. T. B. Harben, of tho
Methodist Church, and now serving in the
Lexington Cirouit. *
This patriotic clergyman, a week or two ago,
conceived the idea of raising a company of
volunteers for the war, to be thoroughly
armed and equipped, free of expense to the
Government. With this object in view, he
proceeded to address the people of his circuit
on the subject, and has met with such unboun
ded success, that he now proposes to raise a
regiment instead of a company. His patriot
ism and his eloquence have already secured
for him a number of enlistments and a quan
tity of contributions.
lie proposes to obtain in this way, uniforms,
knapsacks, arms, tents, and a complete equip
ment for his regiment. One noticeable fea
ture of his design is to procure old rifles,
and hare them rebored of a uniform
site, so as to fit them for the Minnie ball.—
A very large number cf rifles have already
been contributed to his stock, and he has made
arrangements to have them repaired.
Mr. Joseph Echols and Dr. Davenport,
two influential gentlemen, are aiding Mr. Har-
beu in his good work ; and there is no doubt
that his project will be entirely successful, and
that in a short time. He has mads speeches
at Lexington, Linoolnton, and elsewhere;
and at one of his appointments, Mr. Nathan
Johnson, of Oglethorpe county, a wealthy and
worthy member of the Baptist Church, asked
Mr. Harben if he had a family ?
The latter replied in the affirmative.
“ Then," said Mr. Johnson, “they shall be
provided for at my expense, during your ab
sence at the seat of war."
We trust we shell be pardoned for mention
ing some of the names of the gentlemen con
nected with this patriotic movement; for sure
ly such unselfish devotion and patriotism de
serve more than a passing notice ; and though
they may prefer that their good deeds should
be done in secret, yet they will not hesitate
to submit to this public announcement, wheu
it only secures for them popular approval,
but may be the means of aiding them in the
prosecution of their enterprise.—ConttUution-
al’it, Aug. 7.
Political Fobesiqht.—The great German
poet, Goethe, then bnt a young mao, was at
the battle of Valmy in 1792,bu more as an am
ateur than as a combatant. He went with the
allies, who formed one of the best appointed
armies aver rabed in Europe, led by Generals
trained by the Great Frederick. This splen
did army was defeated by undisciplined French
troope, commanded by Dumouriex. The even
ing after the battle, when the allied officers
were commenting on the reeult of the day,
Goethe was asked bit opinion. “ From this
day end from this place forth," he answered,
“ commenses a new era in the world’s history,
and you oan say that you wero present at its
birth."
Such may bs said of tbs battle of Manas
sas. Its influence on the destinies of tho
world will be felt for ages.
The Pbemanbnt Oovninment or tin Conked-
ekath States.—Elections will be held in til
the States of the Southern Confederacy on the
first Wedneeday in November next, for mem-
ben of the Confederate Congress and for Elec
tors for President and Vice president of the
Confederate States. The Electors vote on the
first Wednesday in December. Senators are
to be elected by the several States in the mean
time according to the Provisions of th Confed
erate Constitution. Congress will meet on the
18th day of February, 1662, the vote for Presi
dent and Tice President will baj counted on
the day following, and the President inaugura
ted on 22d.—NittKvUU Banner, July 6.
