THE DAILY .EVENING- TKLKOKA PH PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, .SKPTKMljKR 3, 1870. cue. nxsLxoxoun column. 7 HE FOfWlVnXKSX OF 7.'. florri rnrpce Id tbe opel it t give to man he knowledge of salvation, even the forgiveness of hie sins. "Thou sbalt call His name 'Jesus: lor lie shall save His people from their sins" from the guilt and punishment of their sins, the 18 of the souj. How many say, "I believe in tbe forgiveness of sins!" Dear friends, the mere belief in tbe doctrine will never give peace to the Bin-burdened conscience; It h like the poor man who believes that there Is gold enough in the bank to make hlin rich, or like the hun gry man who is conscious that there U food enough to satisfy his hunger; but both are in want so long as they have not money or food. Some, when conscience is alarmed on account f sin, try to work for salvation; they turn from outward acta of sin, have recourse to the out ward forms of religion, join, it may be, a com munity of Christians, are zealous in every good work, and all is well to tho eye of man but there is no settled peace within. Others here are who are well aware that the blood of Christ eleanseth from all sin, and that without that awful scene on Calvary's top there .onld have been no remission of sins. They arc convinced that all for whom Christ died will be caved, yet they ask, "Did he die for nie? is my name In the Lamb's book of life?" They have rot the assurance of pardon the earnest of eternal life. Now, no man, be he surrounded with every earthly blessing, can be happy for any length of time without a well-grounded hope that not only tLere is forgiveness with (Jod, but that his cwn sins are forgiven. To the anxious and inquiring I say, between the Biviour and the thinner the connecting link )e faith, for without faith we cannot "lay bold tn eternal life." Not that faith saves the soul. Nol Christ only must save; but faith brings peace. It is an act of tho soul, whereby it 1 entailed 'to appropriate Christ's merits and right eousness to Itself. Thus the believer, though Le cannot look into the Lamb's book of life for Lis name, yet is enabled to Bing: "Jesus, my great nigh Priest, OfJcred His blood anil died ; My ruilty conscience seeks No sacrifice b:side; Hie powerful blood did once atone, And now it pleads before the throne.' ' M M.IKV OK CHURCH NEW. t'lS;OI'AI.. The Church of the Cood Shepherd, of Radnor, near Puiladelpui.i, is about to be erected as a memorial to Bishop Kemper. In North Carolina there are 77 Episcopal parishes and mission-, 51 clergymen, and pli'J communicants, of whom 2ii are colored. In lowathcic are 'A parishes, -40 clergymen, and J0.r)7 communicants. Rev. Mr. Watkins, of the First Methodist GJhnrch, New Haven, Conn., lias joined the Episcopal Church. Upon re-entering his chun k iu Chicago, After a recent trip to Europe, Bishop Whit; kouSe wa3 banded a check for $10,000, which bad been raised during his absence for the lijui cUtion of tho church debt. The Rev. VV. A Muhlenberg, D. D., well known as the founder of St. Luke's J lospital in New York city, is about to relinquish his posi tion as "House Father" of the institution. In Nevada the Episcopalians, while not vet having material for statistical returns, haye BlUl outstripped other churches in laying: the founda tion for future operations. Thus far they have three well-attended churches, while 110 persons have been confirmed; 1000 Sunday-school pupils have been instructed, the present attend ance being 000, among whom arc Jews and Ro manists. The oldest Episcopal church edifice in New Enulaud, and perhaps in tbe United States, is fcX. Paul's, Wiekford, R. 1. It was erected in 1707, and has been long disused as a place of worship. One pleasant Sabbath afternoon, not many -nmuiers since, service was held in the old St. Paul's. The thick dust was brushed from its pews and pulpit, aueient prayer books were brought out, and there assembled for wor ship under its sacred and venerable roof many of the oldest people in town: and,' a? in the long time ago, the praise of God wassuntr and spoken by devout and trembling tongues. It was a soleniu and affecting scene and will long be remem bered. After the service the doors and windows were boarded up again and the old church left to its decay. A legacy of aboi, $5000 has lately been left by Miss Stocker, of Boston, to the Assistant Bishop of Ohio, in trust, for the education of young men for the ministry. Only the annual interest of this sum will be available for the purposes of the trust. VrTHODIST. --Fifty-five years ago there was but a single Wesleyan minister on the continent of Australia, and not one in the islands of the South; now there are in the former 170 ministers, and in the latter C2, besides 57 native assistant missionaries. Tbe members have increased fromlS individuals to 00,000. I The Methodist episcopate, which normally i consists of nine members, has been reduced by death of two, and the infirmity of two other of bishops, to but five capable of discharging their j duties. These duties have become so oucrous ' that a permanent increase in their number U talked of. Among Methodist ministers men- ' tioned as likely to be included in the list of cau- ' didates are the Rev. Drs. Curry, Peck. . O. ; Haven, Eddy, Foster, Foss and Gilbert Haven. Rev. James E. Latimer, D. 1).. of the East 1 Genesee Conference, has been elected to the j chair of Historical Theology. Tbe JUi'tk(ni.int says: Rev. I. James. M. D., of Buetleton, Pa., has' the houor of being the i oldest Methodist in the world. He is iu his ninety-fourth year, being born January 28, 1777. ! He joined the Methodist society in 17!0 eighty ! j'ears ago. He was licensed to exhort in 17:'S; to preach in 1800; was ordained deacou bv liishop Asbury 1800, ana elder by hiskoi Morris in 1840. A Methodist seminary for children, young men, amd young women, is to be opened at SaIi Lake City the current month. It will be con ducted by the lie v. Erasmus Smith aud his wife, of Illinois. The Rev. Dr. Rounds has resigned the Presi-. tlency of the Willamette University. Oreuou. Prof. T. M. Catch has been elected to succeed him. The Methodists of Omaha, Neb., ri'ut the stores attached to their church lor .flu CRM a yeas, which sum they propose to devote an nually to the cause of church exteusiou. The Rev. W. F. Watkins ha resigned his position as pastor of one of the Methodist E;u copel churches in New Haven, for the purpo-o, it is said, of joining the Episcopal church. The Indianapolis coi respondent of the Western Adcoraif states taut the United Breth ren Church at Indianapolis has come over bodily to the Methodist Episcopal Church, in cluding several prominent ministers uud congre gations in and adjacent to the city. Already a new church "Massachusetts Ave'utie" is pro jeeted by "Brethren." The cause of this de tection is the extreme measure adopted at their last Annual Conference touching secret socie ties. A new Methodist mouthly magazine, illus trated, is to be started this mouth, uu'Vr the direction b (Taut pices of the Geueral Confer ence of. ue Methodist Episcopal Church South. It, promises to be characteristically a Southern magazine, but not at all sectional. It will also be characteristically Methodist, but vrob.ib'y not at all sectarian. How fl will accomplish this dirtkult task its published prospectus does rot advise us. Rev. W. P. Harrison 1 the edi tor. Its point of publication is to be Nashville, 'Tennessee. The- reported statistics of to? Eogllrfc Wcs- lcyans show ;?48,3.Y) members in full connec tion, 20,407 probationers, f7VS deaths, 10.1HS losses by removal, 544:J .Sunday-schools, 105,51)4 teachers, WJ.Mi'J scholars, and in the reduction of church debts and newly erected churches an expenditure of l,75'J.0O0. The average salaries paid by the Methodist Church in the Boston District, which includes the city and vicinity, is H30. Many of the churches have parsonages attached. The Methodists are about to open a seminary lor yonngladles and gentlemen at Salt Lake City. Subscriptions hae already been proferred for the erection of a church. ( ONGRFGATIONAL. The First Congregational Chrircb, East Haddnm, Conn., established in 1704, has had but live different pastors fcinco its formation, and in the interval of one hundred and sixty-five years has been without an ordained minister but about two years. The first church, built In 1705, was thirty-two feet square, and was then considered a commodious structure. John Smith has made tbe.oller of 125,000 to Andover Seminary for a Memorial Hall, and John Dove and Peter Smith have pledged $10,000 more, on condition that t25.000 bo sub-, scribed bv others the building and land to cost not over :;o.000, and $20,000 to be invested, the interest only to be spent for a library, reading room, etc. The First Congregational church f Stock ton has extended a call to the Rev. J. 11. 1L1 brook, p. 1) , pastor of the Cbngrcgational church of Homer, New York. The Rev. O. V. Merrill, superintendent of the Congregational mission in Nebraska, wants nnother "Andover Baud." lie says he could give to ten men each a county for a parish. The Rev. Ceortrc E. Adams, D. 1)., has left Brunswick, Maine, for Orange, N. J., where he will assume charge of a new parish. Dr. Adams has been connected with the Congregational church in Brunswick for more than forty years. The falsehood of the proverb, "figures never lie." receives a new illustration in the misleading statistics of the Congregational denomination in California. The figures show 00 churches in the State, of which 10 are in San Francisco. The fact Is, there are 53 in the State, of which but 5 are in San Francisco. Of these 511 several arc corpses, and several more lie at death's door. In several ruinlug towns are empty church buildings. The town has decayed, and the church with it; or the American workmen have been supplanted by Chinese. There are really but two strong Congregational churches in" San Francisco. One, which recently ex tended a call to Mr. Wright, of the Berkley Street Church, Boston, is reported to have had no session but a Sabbath-school session for many months. Dr. Stone's people are building a new church, the tplro of which is to be feet. What a mark for an earthquake ! rilESBYTERIAN. The N. Y.

Alexander Cowan, of the Presbytery of Nash ville, was installed pastor of the Church at Hcn dersonville, in Sumuer couutv, Tennessee. The church building will soon Vc finished. It is quite a handsome building, and speaks well lor the liberality of the people. The Church at Pass Christian, Mississippi, is the only Presbyterian Church on the coast between Mobile aud New Orleans. It was or ganized, notwithstanding the strenuous ' oppo sition of other denominations, with 'fifteen members. The Rev. W. H. Strattoa, of Ander son Court House, is its pastor. -- Iu the Southern Presbyterian Church during the last year, the cause of Sustentation, in cluding domestic missionary work connected directly by presbyteries and synods, has re ceived an increment of 410,188; foreign missions, 40rj; publication 2:i7: education. 104: con- I eregational,?l,2t4; miscellaneous, $0358; whilst the whole contributions for all purposes have i gone up $07,955. j The Irish Presbyterian Church has 120,000 I members and an annual income from tho British I Government of t'.t4,000. It has 1004 Sunday ! schools, with 8050 teachers and 16,305 scholars. I Last year was one of prosperity to the Com j berland Presbyterians, some 10,000 new niem ' bcrs being added. They how have 25 synods, 100 presbyteries, 2000 churches, 1400 ministers, and 150,000 communicants. BAPTIST. The Siitiomd llripli.it says that there are ' ten counties in Pennsylvania, with an aggregate i population at the preseut time of 300,000, in which there is no Baptist church; seven other counties, with a population of 200.000, in which : there is ouly oue church in each. Outside of Philadelphia tut largest number of Baptist ! churches in any one counry is Luzerne; next J come Chester, Bradford, Allegheny, Tioga, and ; Wayne counties, iu each of which are over I seventeen churches. Thecounty whose churches i have the laiire.it membership, "outside of Phila 1 delphia, is Chester: next come Allegheny, Lu zerue. and Montgomcrv: each of which has ; over 200O. The Lower Dublin Baptist Caurch is build ! iug a chapel in Bustletou, iu the Tweutj'-tbird ward, rniladelpliia. in wuicn fimuday-scbool and Sunday evening preaching services will be held. It is expected to have it ready for use some time in October, This will be the second build ing of the kind erected in this lield, the lirst at Foxchase, where a nourishing mission is now iu progress. Nearly five hundred volumes were added to the library of tbe American Baptist Historical Society, at No. 530 Arch street, during the last year. Its growth aud the remarkable prosperity of the American baptist Publication Societv, with which it is iuiimtitely connected, would seem to render a lare tire-proof building indis pensable. A liberal Baptist citizeu of Philadel phia recently ottered to give tw enty thousand dollars for a ew building for tbe Publication Society provided four others would do the same iu any part of the I nited States. A prosperous Mission Sunday-school con nected with the Tenth Baptist Church has been recently established at the eorutr of Mont gomery avenue aud Twelfth street. Tbe loca tion is a good one, nod the teicbers arc earn estly engaged in their trood work. The North Philadelphia Baptist Association will ucet with the Nieetown Baptist ClAirch, on Cermantowu aveuuo, above Sixteenth street, on the lust Tuesday in September. This associa tion has a prosperous fund known as the "Church Building Loan Fund." to aid in paving church debts and erecting church editices. Each inembcr of the churches belonging to the asso ciation is expected to make a small donation an uuallv, and the money thus raised is loaned to tbe churches needing ft, without interest, to be repaid in ten annual instalments. l.l THEHAN. The LWnrnn Olmrr&r says: The position of the first Professorship in Thiel College has been accepted by Rev. H.W. Roth, of Pittsburg. He will act, for the present, as executive of the Institution. At and near Brandonvllle, West Va., several new Lutheran meeting-houses are about to be built. Difficulty is experienced in filling the vacant Presidency of Mouift Pleasant College, N. C, Rev. Dr. Bittle having declined the posi tion. Rev. T. W. Dosh was elected, who also de clined. Tbe oldest Luthern minister In the country is said to be Father W. Weendsen, who is now in his ninetieth year; for sixty years he has been de voted to the work of tho ministry. The Southern General Synod of the Luthe ran Church reports 110 members, 194 congrega tions, and 17,300 communicants, distributed in North and South Carolina, Virginia, and Tennessee. CATHOLIC. A Roman Catholic priest of St. Louis thus announces the purpose of that sect to prosecute a missionary work among the negroes. He la right in his declaration of the iwd of the negro race. It is not different from thai of the white race moral culture: "Only the Catholic Church can control the fiery passions of the negro. With .them to be a Slethodist or a Baptist requires little else than a knowledge of the chants used in the service of these sects. There is scarcely a colored bawd in tbe city who is not a member of one or other ot these sects. What they need Is .moral culture r-not frenzied, uproarious prayer, or the singing of stupid hymns. They must be taught the principles of religion; they, must be taken by the hand and led on the way to Heaven. And this instruction and guidance they prefer to receive from a white person, owing to the knowledge they have of the supe riority of tho white race in education. There is no need of our supplying them with colored priests, if the white ones already among them have the zeal to devote themselves actively and absolutely to tho cause in which the venerable Brackmens labored so successfully." In Lexington, Kj., in response to an appli cation from a priest tor $500, to aid in the sup port of a Catholic school in that city, the city council has just voted the appropiiatfon. THE DUNK ARBS. The Missouri Dnnkards have just been hold ing their annual meetings. They have no church buildings of their own, but preach in other churches or in sheds and barns in short, wher ever they can get a chance. They have no or dained preachers, baptize by immersion, face foremost, and maintain as a religious ceremo nial feet-washing, the men washing the feet of tbe women and the women of the men. 1 be sacrament fellows a feast of bread and lamb soup. In dress and daily habit tho Dnnkards cultivate a severe simplicity, and their honesty and integrity are said to be proverbial. friends.- The report of the yearly meeting of the 8 clety of Friends shows 4500 members in -New England, among whom there have been during the year 34 births, 75 deaths, and 35 admissions.
