Washington in WMtemarah.
It was a most advantageous position that
General Washington had selected for tho
encampment of his army In Whltnmui-sh
and Uppor Dublin townships. The troops
occupied several hills to the north-east of
the Bethlehem pike, the principal formi-cations,
remains of which -.1111 exist, being
established ou what Is known as Camp hill.
Tho encampment stretched from Fort
Washington to Filzwiitertown. Huts wore
oroctod by some of tho soldiers, while
others secured shelter lu farm houses. The
army was considerably streOgtbened by the
arrival of i Qenaral
iimy.
It was on ' 1 that
the oommander-ln-ohlef received informa-tion
of the British 'plan* to attack the
Americana At oi I aptaln Alai H
l.ane. a daring cavalry leader, WM Sent

He met the vanguard of the enemy about
11 o'clock, and continued |to harass them

At daybreak the next morning the ene-my
appeared in force on Chestnut hill, with-in
3 miles of the American's right winf!
000 of the I'ennsylvanla militia w i,t
out to moot tho British. A slio it conflict
ensued at tho foot of Chestnut hill, and the
militia woro repulsed. But a few mou had
been killed, when tho I'oimsylvunlans fled
headlong back to camp, leaving their woun-ded
to fall Into the hands of the English.
Among those thus made prisoner was Brig-adier

Pennsylvania mllltla.
No further movements ti>ok place thai
day, but at night the British forces took
post on Bdge hill, within a mile of the
American left. On the 7th the British
moved still further to the left, and tholr
advauclug and flanking parties were at
tacked by Colonel Morgan and his corps
and tho Maryland mllltla at the point

A Churchmai'i Protest.
ToTiia Iti.kiui.au,
Allow mo to call public attention to
what seems to mo n very important sub-
J.s't. It Is tho Impropriety of allowing
women to pnrtoko of tho Lord's Supper,
now generally called tho sacrament, in all
the churches. It Is only necessary to road
tho account of the Institution of this sacred
memorial by tho founder of the Christian
religion to soo that only men were pteauul
on that occasion. It Is not worth while
horo to consider Whether the omission of
woman was Intentional or only because ac-cording
to tho custom of that age and
country, tho master aud his disciples, after
engaging In public ministry, mot In the
•'upper chamber" to partake of tholr last
meal togothor. Sufflco It for us to note
the groat evils that have roeultod from the
presence of womoa at tho sacrament.
Step by stop, since this pornlolous prac-tice
was permitted, women have been leav-ing
tho seclusion propor for that sex.
WJiat do we see to-day? Womon teaohl ng
lu Sunday and secular schools, womon
forming societies under every sort of tltlo
to usurp the functions of mon a nd do th
work of tho world. Do we not see women
acting as home aud foreign mlsslonarlce
for the spread of the gospel to every laud
and ovory oroaturo? As might have been
oxpeotod, these irrepressible apoetloe of
progress are now oven attempting to be-come
mombers of tho vestry, as in eonie
organisations thoy havo Invaded the pul-pit.
What position will be loft to preserve
tho dignity and power of mon If thle thing
goes on.
I protest against suoh perversion of the
placo of sexes. As a radical chango is
needed, I propose that wo return to first
principles and prevent women honceforth
from appearing at tho sacramental table.
The misguided females sometimes mis-quote
tho Biblical phrase, "male and fe-male
created ho them and gave them do-minion,"
and elalm that it was the divine
doslgn that mon and womon should work
together in every department of human In-terest.
It has been urged that as men and
womon woro placed together In families, so
thoy should Jointly strivo for that largor
family, thochurch. Some of tho advocates
of female assistants say that woman was
"lastat tho cross and earliest at tho tomb,''
and should thoroforo be ontrustod to labor
everywhere for her U»rd.
Away with suoh sophlstaryt Lot us not
Iston to it for au Instant, but go at once
back to tho fact that no women wore pres-ent
at the Brat sacrament. It was a fatal
mistake over to admit them to It.
Yours faithfully,
ClIt'llOIIMAN.
