TALK WITS OUR SUBSCRIBERS.
With the present number, :our, obligations.to
very many of our patrons are more than dis
charged, and theirs to us are, as, we trust, plea
santly renewed. This is especially the case in
Philadelphia, and within the bounds of the Synod
of Pennsylvania. With these subscribers. we are
ready now for a settlement, and shall be happy to
meet them iu our office, and hand them receipts
for another year, in exchange for the usual pay
ments. The okee will be found open DAILY FROM
9 o'oLoOK, A. /IS" TQ O'OLOWL sr., for this
important service; important and satisfactory, in
a high degree, it will be to us, if our offers are re
sponded to, as we have reason to expect. A prompt
attention to the matter will not be very difficult to
individuals, while in the aggregate the result will
be the furnishing of means urgently needed to carry
on our paper. If our subscribers knew how great
is the sum total of these, dues, so trifling in the
individual oases, and how serious an embarrass
ment it is to us to have the payment delayed, we
believe they would flock in at once for settlement.
The New York State subscribers will find bills
in their papers of nest week.
Subscribers in other portions of the country will
receive theirs in the week following.
" ANNALS OF THE POOR."
LIGHT AMONG THE LOWLY.
Let us again, dear reader, go among the lowly.
Here is a wide covered alley in which you have
wore than once caused your feet to pat, pat, upon
its well worn path, viliting . (in thought) him who
was "near three score," and others. But our
errand to-day is not to see him, hut as we wind
around with the stairs and pass his door, we can
see his courageous face as he throws his shuttle,
causing his loom to speak out its old familiar
click-a-W.click, and if you will you may bid him
"good day," but we must pass on and again climb
the stairway, and enter a low roofed roomrappa
rently the kitchen; but this is uninhabited, save
by the form of an aged bobbin-winder, who is so
busily engaged with the wheel and yarn, that he
knows not of our presence, and we pass thence to
the work-room of him whom we have called to
He is a man in middle life, sober and very in
telligent. His parents were Roman Catholics,
and thus reared hiut in that way, as the one in
which they thought he should go. He married,
but his wife got to drinking, and, with herself;
would have dragged him,down to the drunkard's
grave. They parted, and he rented these rooms,
and now for months he has been hard atovork on
yonder loom; making his 24- cents per yard for
weaving gingham and cheek. No liquor is ever
allowed to cross his threshold. Let us now ap
proach and introduce ourselves—do you see that
smile of welcome? He has heard of the good
substantial food sent to the consnrriptive below,
through our mission. As he talks, it is a pleasure
to see the light shining in this out of the way
pi ec e. Re. seldom goes out except his work calls
him to the ware-room or on necessary errands;
but yonder upon a shelf is a spelling book, two
arithmetios, and a small book of historic reference.
These make 'hi& little library; and here at his
leisure, he learns of their contents, all ambitious
of becoming a sehobtr, and even now he has taught
himself to cipher is far as the "rule of three,"
and talks familiarly of the dates when errors were
introduced into the Christian Church, &c. Since
he has been living in these rooms with his aged
companion in labor, we have noticed the various
little necessary additions he has made to his
furniture and the steady progress he makes to
wards lifting himself out of his misfortunes. He
would spend part of Sunday in religious meetings,
only he has not clothing to appear in , as other
men do, and when we gently hint at supplying
his need, be says, "I will be able in a fewinonths
to clothe myself," and thanks us. His judgment
has decided that the Roman Catholic church is
filled with corruption—bow kindly he should be
taken by the hand and led to the foot of the cross.

A Worthy Tribute to the Memory of a Revered
Clergyman.—The Nora American of a recent date
says thervirtue, piety, and exemplary conduct of the
late-Rev. George Chandler require no substantial or
carved record for the present generation, for his un
affectedly good qualities of head and heart are em
balmed in the affectionate memories of all who knew
him and of all who had heard of his amiable and
truly religious character. But this eminent, divine
was one of the shining lights of his day;; iddhisder
votion to the service of his Master, both in faithand
good works, well merit the distinction of being hand
ed down ,to,after times as a pharos to guide mankind
in all the dangers of darkness safely into the harbor
of salvation and eternal happiness. The RM . ': Geo.
Chandler was 'pastor of the Presbyterian Churclrat
Kensington, and - equally respected 'during that entire
Period for his blameless life, and for the zeal which
he manifested in diffusing the sacred truths of the
gospel. We are, therefore,,gratified to learn that the
trustees of the church have granted a spot of ground,
in front of the building, for the erection of 'a hand
some and appropriate monument to his memory, sub
scribed for by the citizens of Kensington, so that
the scriptural remark might faithfully apply, that
"Though he be dead, he yet speaketh." The con
struction of the monument has been confided to Mr.
R. H.-Day, whose marble yard is at the earner of
, Marlbocaugh.and_Rich mond streets...in-0e EighteenA
war - cf. It will be seventeen feet high'. The base IS'
of blue Pennsylvania marble, with a second mould
ing base of Italian marble, upon which rests the die.
This IS of octagonal Gothic style, very elaborate in
ornamentation, on the face'of which there is to be a
bust of . the decease& Upon this rests the obelisk,
which is octagon and panneled'; also very rich in de
coration, in harmony with the die. • '
The' Whole will lid' 'surmounted by an' urn, which
is richly carved tacorrespond with the other portions
of the work, all except the base, being of the Italian
Marble. The entire cost will be $lOOO, and the, mo
nument will be completed early in September.

its ashes two papers printed on one sheet, viz.: "Our
Union," and "The. Presbyterian of bur Union." One
of these papers says, "Terms for the two papers, a

Christian Sympathy.—At a meeting of the pas
tors of the several Methodist ehurches of this City re
cently, held in the Union M. B. Church, the follow
ing expression of sympathy was given by' suggestion
of Dr. F. Hodgson and A. Cookman:--
Resolved, By the Preachers' meeting of the M. E.
Church, in the city of Philadelphia, that we have
heard, with sincere sorrow, of the death of the vene
rable Di. Neill, of the Presbyterian Church of- this
city, and that, as far as possible, we will attend his
funeral, to-day, at the Sixth Presbyterian Church.
Rev. lames Wilson, dead.—We • have already
chronicled the death of this youthful standard-bearer
in our ranks, but , a recent number of the Central C.
Herald gives some interesting facts, from which We
gather the following. Mr. Wilson 'was not yet 29
years of age, having been born October 14th, 1831.
He was a native of Ohio, He was a child of the co
venant, given.to God renewedly in the prayers- of a
dying father, and designed for the Ministry, yet he
had gone through college, married, and gone into the
weeds of Indiana an unconverted man: Things
could not, remain so long, for God hears prayer and
keeps covenant. In 1856, he and his companion were
both born again. He turned his attention imme

1858, The Congregatibnal Church in Auggles, Ash
land
Co., 0., January Ist, 1860, unanimously asked
Presbytery to ordain him to the work of the gospel I
ministry, and install him pastor of the church. This
Fresbytery did on the 23d of February, 1860; and
such was the heartiness of the relation constituted,
that the prospects of the church seemed bright, and
Christians took courage. In less than : four months
time, his two children, two and four years old, were
taken away from him, and the father and mother pros
trated with severe sickness, from which the former
never afterward recovered. When, it was evident that
he could not recover, that his work as a minister of
Christ was done, he said, "I wish to live that I may
stand up and preach Jesus, but if my Heavenly Fa
ther is going to take me home, lam content,-1 am
willing to go on, or to stop,—just as it is the will of my
Master." Said he again—"lf my work is done,—if
I can preach no more to my people,—carry me back
and let me die'among thent—let my death preach to
them." When told that this could not be done, he
was too near gone; said he—" Then, when I am
dead, take my remains and bury them among my
people, beside my children, and let my silent grave
preach Jesus . and the resurrection." We promised
to do it, and we did it He died,July 18th, and was
buried at Ruggles, amid a sorrowing afflicted people.
Pike's Peak.—The Congregationalists have united
with the New and Old School Presbyterians in form
ing , a union church in Mountain City, in Gregory's
Gulch, which numbers fifty members, being One
week's growth. We have a confession of faith such
as is in•common use, and a covenant suitable to our
circumstances, . and deacons, &a. Rev. Lewis Hamil

Resignation Not Aceepted.—As the congrega

nation recently tendered by their pastor,: the Rev.

CONGREGATIONAL:
Missionary vi.amed.—Mr. N. T. Gilbert, a grit
dude of Andover, of the class of 1859, was ordained
as rtiissionary;`July I.Bth, at Rutland, Vt. He ex
, peels to go out as - a missionary. to. Chili, South .Ame
rica,,under the direction of the American and Foreign
Christian Union.' The last, year he has ,been pre
paring himself especially for his work by the study
of the Spanish language.
Mr. Beaubien; Once More.—We deeply regret to
learn, says the Congregationalist, that the appeal
Which this excellent, man has been making in New
England for the French people in Chicago, and else
where,. who' have left the .Roman Catholic thureh,
and become Protestants and Independents, has_thes
far met_ with return, except in the way of
kind words—which neither "butter parsnips " nor
build chapels. Mr. B. hassince returned to the West
to take Charge of Father Chiniquy's field during the
absence of the latter in Europe.
New Colony, Chureh and College.—A new Con
gregational Church was formed at Benzonia in Lee
lenan Co., Mich., on the 10thofJune,1860. Twenty
six members united in covenant, and others will join
them at the next communion. This- church is the
nucleus of a colony of agriculturists, mostly of the
Congregational persuasion, who have located in a fine
agricultural region in the centre of which are _laid out
sites fora town and college. The adjacent lands will
be occupied mostly by families who seek to extend
Christ's kingdom, while they enjoy religious privi
leges, and procure educational and social advantages
for their children.—C'ong. Herald.'

Presbyterians in New England. —A corre
spondent of the Boston Recorder writing from Bridge
port, Conn., says:—
" We and glad to welcome our Presbyterian bre
thren in New England T here the common good' can
be promoted by their planting churches. But Con
gregationalism mast purge itself of its own errors, or
it never will be - purged. And the withdrawal of one
strong and sound Man is"not only a loss to us, but a
saariftee of the common good."
Death of Rev. Noah Emerson.—The American
Missionary contains the intelligence that this vene
rable minister of. Christ, long a resident of Hollis in
this, State, died July, 9th, at the reservation of the
Shinnecock Indians, in tbe town of South Hampton,
Long Island. He commenced his labors there early
in May, and continued them till his death. He was
seized with paralysis on the Sabbath after having
preached twice, and attended a' Bible class, and died
about half past twelve on Monday morning. Though
be labored in behalf of the Association and under its
commission, he expressly stipulated without pay."
Mr. Emerson was a brother of Rev. Brown Emer
son, D. D, of Salem, Mess., and of the late Rev. Reu
ben Emerion, of South Reading, Mass. He was born
in Hollis, we believe, in October, 1787, and was con
sequently in the 73d year of his age at the time of
his death. He graduated at Middlebury College in
1814, studied theology at Andover in 1814-17, la
bored as a missionary in Maine, Vermont, Massachu
setts and Georgia in 1817-25, became pastor of the
Congregational Church in Baldwin, Me., in 1825,
where be labored nearly quarter of a century. In
185 U he labored as a missionary of the N. H. Mis
sionary Society in Enfield. He was an esteemed and
usefurthinister of the gospel.
LUTHERAN.
The Present Condition of the Churoh.—The
forthcoming number of the Evangelical &anew for Oc
tober, in its review , of AL Krautii's sermon on Chris
tian Libertg, draws a gloomy picture of the present
position of the Lutheran Church in the United States.
There is a great want of harmony between the na
tives of different countries. The Church has one Ge
neral Synod, embracing twenty-six district Synods,
but there are ten Synods which still refuse to extend
ihe hand of fraternal fellowship to those thus asso
ciated. Nor does even the 'external union of the Ge
neral Synod secure in ternnl union among its members.
Different Synods exist , upon the same territory in New
York, in Pennsylvania, in Maryland, and in Ohio.
These divisions have, indeed, been partly caused by
differences originating before their associations, in the
General Synod, but not even their coalescence in the
General Synod has been able to heal these unfortu,
nate division& It is farther notorious that not one
fourth of the children of emigrants who have lost the
language of their Lutheran fathers, enter the Luthe
ran-Church which employs the English language in
its sacred services:' But that they enter other Eng
lish communions, is equally well known. Every
where, in city and in country, the descendants of Lu
therans are found in large bodies in the Episcopal,
Presbyterian, Methodist, and other , non-Lutheran re
ligious bodies Nearly all the descendants of the
Swedes who settled upon the Delaware more than two
hundred years ago, and who make so large a propor
tion of the population of Philadelphia and the sur
rounding country in Pennsylvania, Delaware, and
New Jersey, are now in the Episcopal and other Eng
lish churches: The English Lutheran Churches in
New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Pittsburg, Chi
cago, and St. Louis, surrounded by hundreds of thou
sands of German& whose children are every day learn
ing to speak English, are snlesHltaxasooh.h,,
-to notice thetrlirlielidtirkinevin or felt in any, of those
great centres and motive powers of American life
and business. Philadelphia barely numbers live
English - Lutheran Churches, with a couple of thou
sand communicants, where it ought to embrace at
least one-third of the entire population, -with scores
of churches for their aecommodation.—The Methodist.
Bohemian Lutherans Coming.—The Missionary
says that a new element is entering into our popula
tion, from Bohemia, the land. of Huss and the "Re
formere before the Reformation." In several places
in the West, small settlementi of these our long•per
secuted brethren are now being made. Especially in
Wisconsin is there a considerable number of Bohe
mian Protestants, though, unfortunately for them,
most of them do not reside in sufficient numbers in
one place to enjoy the ministrations of the gospel in
their own tongue. But the immigration from Bohe
mia once commenced, will assuredly continue.

Anita:am—Geological bird-tracks.—A correspond.
ent of the Claridian Claroniele of this city, writing
from• Amherst, says:—"Of course Dr. Hitchcock's
collection of bird-tracks is unrivalled in the world.
The Specimens are almost without number, and of all
sizes from a tiny foot-print no bigger than a robin's
to a huge impression a foot in length. You see a
half-dozert successive steps of a bird which must haye
been elephantine in its proportions. Nor is there
any mistake—every claw and muscle, and even the
structure of the skin is perfectly distinct). It would
be well worth while to make a long jourbey if only
to see Dr. Hitchcock's bird•tracks."
As to the Commencement exereises, after highly
applauding the addresses of Dr.. Thompson and Hon.
Horace Maynard, of Tenn., whose parents, h& says,
still reside near Amherst, he says:.—"l Wish I could
continue these eulogistic remarks in speaking of the
Commencement proper. But not even tie presence
of Governor Banks with" his staff, brilliatt with gold
lace and feathers, nor the finest brass band"of Boston
could relieve it from the charge of htress. The
speakers were, with two or three exceptYptis, as mo
notonous as a country preacher, and' it great deal
more prosy. There was a lack of cultur and polish,
and still worse; of thought! = Not of w de, for each
speaker seemed to be allowed an 'untie ded license
as to time, and plodded on until the udience was
heartily tired of him."

SPURIOUS AND DEPItECIt.TED COlN.—rtlo In q uirer

Dr. James T. Barclay to: aseertain.thelest modes of
'detecting Coinerfelt coin, antialio to retort whethet
improved mechanism would enable thlitlgovernment
more perfectly to guard against its magifacture and

- Fourteen methods of counterfeitingftind depreei :
ging, coin, are described, some of them equirin,g the
very, highest degree of scientific and p tical skill.
We have been informed, upon good thority that
not less than one per cent. of the alive and as much
as two per cent. of the geld coin in firculntion, is
either spurious or has been impaired . value—and
.t k
yet by processes so speciouslyperfortn 4, as daily to
deceive• banks and brokers. `i
The result of a study thus directedt as been' the
invention of a plan of coinage which,- e believe, if
fully carried out by the government,l with the-re- -
sources which it could well afford to d 'late to solm
portant an object, can scarcely fail either altogether
to relieve our currency, from the fronds, of counter

"Nearly one-half of the entire population of the
great West is composed of Pennsylvanians, and yet
in spite of this drain upon her for yeare. the old Key
stone has been steadily increasing in
' ealth and po
pulation, and will continue to increase after . furnish

SUNDAY LIQUOR LAW.--The first accused party 1111
der the Sunday liquor law, was discharged in Brook

Antmnavran LIQUORS.—An act ‘itbireient reco
very for the sale of adulterated liquors;" Was 'passed
March 29th, by the Legislature of this State: It de
clares that, from and after its passage, "in all actions
for the sale of any spirituous, vinous, oi:malt liquors,
or any admixtures thereof, it
,shall be competent fur
the defendant, in every such case, to prOve that said
liquors, or admixtures thereof, were inilhav, vitiated,
or adulterated, and proof thereof being made, shall
amount to a good and legal defence to.the whole of
the plaintiff's demand.
THE WEATHER IN KANSAS.—OnIy four Or five inches
of rain have fallen in Southern Kansas during the
year. Winds, as hot as the Eastern Simoon, sweep
over these Western plains. Corn is dead or dying,
and grass withered by the fierce heats. ,The inhabi.
tante are threatened with famine, and the- more for
tunate regions`of the East are likely to'be called on
for aid, as in the time of the potato rotin Ireland.
THE DROUGHT IN TExes.—The extraordinary drought
in various sections of Texas continued at last accounts.
The Nacogdoches Chronicle, of the 17th July:says:
"A drought like the present in eastern Texas is not
within the remembrance of man. For over two
months have we looked and prophesied for rain, but
in vain. 'During the `past week the merpry stood at
from 100 to 110 degrees. The consequence is most
disastrous ;-th P. O
e 01 ) 10.. find diffteut to Procure the
n — e - c - e;STirrtiqpply of water; cattle and horses suffer,
and, in=some instances, perish from want of it; fields
of corn have withered and become blighted without
producing 'an ear, while thousands of acres, will, not
yield the amount of seed that was required to plant
them. The cotton crops, which-usually withstand
all droughts, ,are alike victims to it." •
The above is also true of Louisiana and Mississippi
The Victoria Advocate says:
"On Saturday, the 14th, a perfect simoon swept
by, in clouds, that darkened the whole atmosphere,
until houses could not be seen across the street.
The storm blew from a little West of South, and blew
with more than the violence of a norther for three
quarter§
.of an hour. No place was free from the
driving dust—it visited every, hole and corner of the
houses, drifted in Ike snow through the roofs, came
in at the cracks of the windows, besprinkled the beds
and furniture, drifted in the faces of many of our

SINGULAR CENSUS RETURN IN. LEBANON COUNTY.-
Cold Spring Township.—Population, 141; no deaths,
no farms, and no grain raised in the township; ac
cording to the returns sent in; there are 144 unoccu
pied dviellings—more than the entire - lopulation.
This extraordinary circumstance will require stune
explanation. There are one school, one teacher,
thirty scholars, and three churches.
.
Another Slaver.—The United States ntrshall, in
New York, August 16th, took possession of .the brig
Thtrmas Acorn, captured on the coast of Africa, on
suspicion of being a slaver. There seems.to be little
doubt that she is what she is suspected to be.
The Storm at New Orleans Vzotraty•—
EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE SHIPPING EPIPXOT
&emuErts.—New Orleans, August 13,—The storm
which visited this city and neighborhood on Saturday
Was the most severe for several yetals, and its effect
upon the shipping was quite disastrous, though .it
happened fortunately .at a period of the year when
there are but few vessels in port. Had it occurred
when ships were daily departing. with valuable cargoes
the loss would have been immense. A. whole town,
Proctorville, was swept away. One hundied lives are
supposed to have been lost.
FOREIGN.
ENGLAND---SNOW AND' HAIL STORMS IN ENGLAND.
—The Liverpool Mercury of August lst says thatthe
phenomena of snow storms in the dog days has oc
curred in Yorkshire.
•
On the previous -Saturday a very severe thunder
storin passed over Marston and district, ending in a
shower of snow , and hail of a quarter of an
, .
hour's duration.
The ground was quite white, and, on the Wolds,
the snow was two inches deep in some places. Hail
stones as large as nuts felt in quantities. A few
days after there was another snow and hail storm.
Fifteen hundred English troops have been lauded
in Syria to protect the Christians. France, there.
fore will not enjoy the entire credit of settling the
affairs of:the Ottoman Empire.
SICILY. —Volunteers to Garibaldi are so numerous
'as' to einbarrass him, and he has requested that no
more be sent at present.
As regards Sicily, says the New York Courier and
Enquirer, there is no reason to doubt that Garibaldi
soon transfer his forces from Sicily to the Nea
politan mainland.
All accounts agree .that boats and vessels of all
kinds are rapidly assembling at Messina, and it needs
no prophet to 'foretell the purpose for which they are
to be used. The Neapolitan Government W 43 are assured
by a telegrkm from Naples, has abandoned all hope
that Garibaldi can be induced to grant an armistice,
and is solely occupiedin`devising means to resist the
'expected attack of the Sicilian Dictator:` The troops
which were quartered in'the Abruzzi have, it is said,
been ordered, to march to Naples, round Which city
the disposable forces will be concentrated, reinforce
ments having 'already been dispatched to Calabria.
• But further rumors of.the disaffection of the army
are arriving, and, it is reported that two regiments
lying in Calabria have cheered for Garibaldi, and
that in another quirter a' plot of three:hundred sol
diers to join. Garibaldi had been discovered and frus
trated.. ' '
The signs, however, are that all the preparations
.
of the Neapolitan government to operate against the
Garibaldians will be of no avail, that they are too
late for any useful purpose, and that a disaffected
Neapolitan army and a people waiting- to welcome
Garibaldi,-will do all, for hint that his present force,
might not perhaps lie able to accomplish.
Eighteen hundred Garibaldians have landed in
Calabria, and Naples has-been declared by the go
vernment in a state of siege, or, in other words, has
been subjected to martial law.
Garibaldi, according to public rumor; has been se
cretly in Naples to consult the revolutionary leaders
in that city, and . to determine upon the proper mea
sures to be pursued to secure success.
CHINA.—By the way of Russia, advices have been
received from the interior of China, which state that
internal disturbances are converting that vast em
pire into a waste. The rebels are within fourteen
days' march of Pekin. They have occupied nume
rous provinces, and have captured a steamboat in the
Imperial Canal, and burnt Wah-dra-in, situated on
the Yellow river, the sole medium of communication
between Northern and Southern China.
Japan.—The dates from Japan are to Jane the
25th.
A lucrative trade bad sprung up between Japan
and the French and British forces in -China, nearly
all the supplies being shipped hence, including four
thousand horses.
Native flour was selling at $2 50 Per barrel--po
tatoes ie. per pound.
Four ships had cleared for England with car,goes
of tea, raw silks, and other Japan- produce, Which
was
,to be had in astonishing quanfities almost every
where.
Kanagawa las already tripled in population, tin
der the influence of the different foreign commercial
treaties.,
France and England.—Napoleon has sent an
autograph letter to the French - Minister in London,
Count, Persigney, designed as a 'pacific response to
the warlike speech of Lord Palmerston. its tone is
highly conciliatory..
The letter says:
To sum up, this is my innermost thought; I de
sire that Italy.should obtain peace, no matter how,
but without foreign intervention.
In regard to•which, among the latest news concern
ing Naples,. occurs the 4 following; -
France has assented to the Neapolitan proposal
that the French and English Beets cruise off Cala
bria and Naples to prevent the landing of- Garibar
diens.
Lord John Russel declined to accede, because
England desired to maintain the principle of non-in
tervention.
The King of Naples will take refuge' in Vienna in
the event of Garibaldi's success. The Austrian Mi
nister, in May last, was instructed to inform King
Francs • . .
is 11. that the fleet was at his disposal.
GERMANY..--A 8 a consequence of the conference at
Toplitz, Count Rechberg communicates, in general
terms, the complete establishment of an understand
ing between Austria and Prussia, on all great Ques
tions of European policy, as well as on questions spe
cially referring to the affairs of Germany. •
The following will explain the nature of this un
derstanding
There is no doubt that Garibaldi, aided by the
Neapolitan fleet, which be- hopes shortly to possess,
intends to attack Venice; yet Austria- fel& strong
enough to sustain a conflict alone, even against the
Whole of Italy.
As long as the conflict is only: between Austria and
Italy, Prussia will observe the, principle:of non-in:
tervention, but if other powers interfere, and thus,
break that principle, Germany would not hesitated
support Austria in the maintenance of the rightnua
rantied to her by treaties. .

- BWiftly and' suddenly came' this' sad intelligence to
the church of which the deceased was a member, and
to a large circle of friends—all unconscious and 'unap
prehensii&of the greateorroWa.bnut to befall them.
it is not time,to, tell- how
,great has been our loss,—
neither does the,eharacter of our, friend ask embeslish
ment; and yet it ieineet that mention be 'made of 'her
many virtues. Hers was . a character which it is soothing
and quickening to remeinber. It comes over one like
the breath of spring, and we would dwell upon-it-and
have others feel its tnfluence:-
Richly endowed with a quick and penetrating-per
ception, an active and vigorous understanding; and a
spirit buoyant, cheerful, and often sportive, cultivated
by a liberal andjudicious education, and overflowing
with life, and full-of faith and hope, she was - fitted for
activity and wide influence. Tempering these gifts,
kindling them and guiding them in their operation, were
her self-sacrifice and quick sympathy, leading all her
'powers -to harmonimis activity for the good of others.
--Her tufluence r without being made prominent, was per
suasive—like that of the great - powers. of the world,
Mild and noiseless, but penetrating and enduring—her
spirit and energy quickly communicating itself to all
around.' It had one of the chief marks of reality—it was
unpretending. She had no thought of-playing the part
ota leader. She was above affectation and show—ne
ver more herself, never more unstudied than when lead
ing the thoughts and directing the'actions of others.
. Crowning all, was her deep and earnest piety. It. was
with her a deep sentiment. It'struck through and:en
twined itself with her whole soul. But her' piety par
.-took of the general temperament of her mind. It was
active, a life, , a holy living, not a mere sentiment., It
led directly and 'necessarily to good works: It was
warm, but not heated, earnest but 'calm, a' habit and
principle not impulse, the' air she breathed, not-a fitful
-wind giving occasional violence to her emotions. A
constant dew seemed to,distil upon her from heaven,
giving freShness and growth to her religion, but it was
an influence seen not in its falling but-in its fruits. Her
devotion to her. Redeemer was marketlby an independ
:ence,of the restraints and forms of the world, by a con
'Slant and whole-hearted interest in all the: enterprises
of the church, and, by an habitual consecration of time
and strength, gained from worldly cares and duties, to
directlabor ; for Christ's glory. Her love was marked
by gratitudeand submission. She felt strongly that God
had crowded her life with peculiar goodness, and she
praised Him; and yet when his greatest blessing in this
life was withdrawn, her acquiescence was as deep and
sincere as her thankfulness.
In her sickness . , when it was announced 'to her that
she tnust soon die, her submission was entire. ,There
was no alloy of irnpatience or distrust. g. I have trusted
in
,Christ and I can:trust Him nc.w . "--was a familiar
sentiment, not uttered with mechanical and common
place formality, but issuing from• the depths of her heart
as.th:e voice of long experience in Submission and faith.
She was one of the most blameless women, one of the
most sincere and trust-worthy friends, one of the most
active and devoted Christians, and long will her friends
and the church cherish the legacy of her example.

" This volume will be found to be replete with inte

which it treats. The reader will have presented to him
a picture of the religious world, upon which lie will
perceive many dark and distressing shades--he Will see
in what varied and unhallowed forms mankind have
worshipped the Common Parent of all—he will be led
10 contemplate the delusions practised upon millions
by the cunning and craft of imposture—the unholy de

perstitions and cruel abominations upon still other mil
lions of the human family. From the pain of dwelling
upon the darker shades, he will' rind relief by turning his
eyes to the bright spots of the picture."
" This work is of the most liberal and impartial cha

overturning of governments long established, and the
scope given to free inquiry, impart a fresh interest to
subjects of this nature. Nay we not also hope that a
