" ' - ■ THE TORNADO IN lOWA. Just as we were going to press, we received from a correspondent and eye*witness in Mt. Ver non, lowa, a graphic description of th&grkt tornado which originated in that' part of the country. If wilt appear in our next issue. THE fIEKEBJL^ ACTION OH The Standing Committee on Education for the ministry to whom was referred tfter'epbft of the Committee on the same "subject; respectfully submit the following reports • The attention of the Assembly is called to the Occasion of gratitude to the great Head of’ the Church for the increasing interest which is felt in this cause throughout our Chutch, for the continued prosperity of our Theological Seminaries, and especially for the success which has attended the efforts to enlarge the endow ments of Auburn and Lane Seminaries. : At the same time we are called upon for more earnest prayer to the Lord Of the in riew of the fact that the whole number of stndents in these institutions, and so far as we can learn, the whole number of candidates for the ministry in any stage W their education, is scarcely at air in advance of that Of the pre ceding year. The number entering the minis, try of our Church, from year to year, is. entirely inadequate to meet the demands for our own home field—even if we should do nothing to- ! ward furnishing a supply for foreign lands. While as an Assembly we are endeavoring to awaken in all onr Churches a deeper interest both in foreign and domestic missions, it should not be forgotten that that interest must necessa rily be bat transient Unless we have men to send abroad who shall constitute our best and strong est bonds of union with far distant lands ; and men to cultivate the new fields which may be. opened and occupy the new churches which may be formedathame. All our attempts to* enlarge! our borders and to gafter new ehurches means of exploring missionaries are greatly em barrassed, and many of them rendered compara tively useless, by the want of men, to enter the fields as permanent laborers. This, so far as instrumental agency Is concerned, is emphati cally onr great WaUti That this want may'he rapidlyittppiled—-let all Christians be exhorted to remember the command of the Master in their families and in their social circles—“ Pray ye the Lord of the harvest,” Ac. 1 The labors of the Permanent Committee through their Secretary, have done much to deepen the interest on this subject in 'the Churches, Presbyteries and Synods, and espe cially among the young men in the various institutions which he has visited; Your Com mittee are persuaded that'if the condition of this whole Cause at this time could be compared with what it was four years ago when the labors commenced the Assembly and the Churches would feel that the money necessary to sustain* them could not have been better expended, and that their labors must on no account be diseon~ tinned. Their report 1 has already informed, yon of the embarrassment under which they have labored, on account of the fact that the interest in the cause “has gathered itself aronnd local centres” instead of aronnd one common centre, so that what they have done cannot be em bodied and made manifest to the Church at large. The most serious question which presses upon the minds of your Committee is—can these causes of embarrassment and difficulty be. re moved—wholly or in part ? . j They believe that they can be removed, and that it is the sincere desire of all parts of thp Church that they should be. Therefore, 1. Resolved that the Permanent Committee continue their work as heretofore! and that they be instructed at an early day, to revise the present plan of th® Assembly, and; submit the revised plan to the Presbyteries with the ear-' nest request that they express their views and wishes concerning it to the Permanent Com mittee previous to the meeting of the next As sembly ; and that Albert Batoes, I>. : H. Allen, Ezra A. Huntington and Henry B. Smith, be appointed to confer with Said committee coh cerning the revision of the plan.' 2.

FOREIGN Slieily. —The frightened despot of Naples has been attempt! ng to prop his desperate cause by lying bul letins, asserting that bis troops had beaten Garibaldi in two engagements and slain one of the rebel officers. But the candle-moulder of Staten Island has proved more than a, match for tbei infamous Bourbon. The first encounter between the patriots under Garibaldi, and the Royalist troops occurred while the latter were concentrating themselves upon Palermo and Messina., General' -Landf could,note resist the vigorous attack, and fied to Palermo, leaving behind him four guns, 100 dead, and a great' many wounded. Daring bis two days’ march to gain that city, he was harassed on all sides by the population, and hbtlv pursued by Garibaldi’s then. It is further said that Garibaldi, who has assumed the office and responsibility of Dictator, on behalf of the Sardinian Government, has entered Palermo at tile lie ad of nine-thousand,men,besides cavalry, and that the Neapolitan troops in that city, had laid down their arms amidst; the extraordinary enthusiasm of its two hundred thousand; inhabitants; This latter important information is from Genoa. The Paris correspondent of the Express (Evening Daily News,) is satisfied of its correctness. The correspondent of the Times in that city is certain “ that no news of an - opposite kind has been received”—while the same journal’s correspondent in Vienna, though he con siders the report,premature, mentions that the pre valent opinion in the latter capital is, that “Sicily is. lost to .the Bourbons;!” Another,despatch, says Garibaldi’s movements, in Sicijy are for the purpose of making that island the, basis, or subsequent operations against Naples.

Price, $1.25. $1,481 16 “In this volume, the opposing arguments to pne or two popular Baptist fictions, are presented in the style of an interesting narrative and dialpgue, ingeniously arranged, and forcibly and impressively put. Thp ar guments for the pedo-baptist faith and practice are clearly and logically set forth, with all the cbarms of a romancer The story is attractive, ingenious and in structive. It is just the book for general circulation, and will be popular, and wilt prove a timely antidote to the proselyting zeal of our Baplist friends, and will serve to enlighten and settle wavering minds on this subject.”—American Presbyterian. « The arguments contained in this work were mainly presented by the author, in a series of letters, to a sister, designed to answer the positions of the Baptist denomi nation, and show that their doctrines are fotmded in error.. The argument is interwoven with a story that relieves its abstract, and what might be otherwise to many uninteresting characters, and will doubtless be read where simply controversial works would not.”— Evening News, Mobile.
