They are reconciled to ithy various considerations... One iw ;the fitness of dif ,ferent denominations,, for different classes of minds. Again, the mostthorough, persistent and efficient work can „only be done through each man's elected Church. He does not get his motive nough anyihete else. There , is, also, a growing conviction that the Oneness.of tho Church does not depend on an 94twardor visible unity in one, or, in, a very few. denominations. , ;In the economy of society, it would ;not be wisete hive one dry goods store,find one gro cety,:and one bank, and BO supply, on Ihe'conimunity system, the wants of the`pub- Aie; - -liut that thewhole should be thrown open -t6 dompetition,:im cirderto the and largest supply,. ancUthe most liberal accommodation. t So may Ged wisely intend that independent and somewhat rival religious organizations should supply gospel wants; and as cOMpeting ,merchants may live side by. side, in amicable enterprise;_se may the deripminations, stimu - lated to the highest degree of religious acti vity; yei dwell `together as brethren. In a wordyl let the Presbyterian become more and 'more a, Tresbyterian—and so' through the -inventory of , Churches—each man, cherishing* :his, own pastor :and -local church, and giving his:zeal and Money and prayers 'for the en largement. and. snccess of the educational and . _ publication and Missionary schemes of his own denomination: We must, at least at present, accept' the dmetninational 'actiOn as the indication of God's method.

What he has given is only the beginning of what he intends to, give, as the patent will probably become more and more productive as it becomes more and more extensively introduced. Much 'of' the proceeds of sales of the patent 'cores:Mi. ill obligations for money, payable in sums from year to year. The amount of those payments depends, in some cases, on the suc cess of the patent. So that Mr. Peeler's bene factions will depend,. as to amount, on the suc cess of his patent in the localities thus contracted for. Some of the larger and most productive States are still held by Mr. Peeler. I ant not fully infoiated as to the various benefactions paid, and to be paid, front proceeds of this pa tent. Some ,of :these donations, which have come to my knowledge in a business way, are as follois ; To be paid out of profits in hands of agents and aksignees, to be applied to educational pur-. pones,. Ander the direction of the Conferences— in Illinois, $4,000; in Missouri, $4,000; in Min nesota, Ham Tine Univeriity, $5,1700-; --Indi ana, .Asbury University, $5,000; in Wisconsin, to 'Lawrence University and other institutions, $4,000.; in lowa, Wesleyan University and others, $4,000; and in Ohio 7 Ohio Wesleyan University, $7,000, payable in annual install ments of sl,ooo•per annum; beginning Ist 'Oc tober, 186 E, oat of any profitg that may accrue; and if the 'success be adequate, the assignee de signs, aiding;-the Ladies', Home Mission of the Methodist. Episcopal Church at Cincinnati. Mr. Peeler's heart is large' enough to multiply these donAtions ; which he will do as soon as his means shall adequately increase, so as to ena ble him to execute as well as to "devise liberal ,things.;' A writer,. remarks, in relation to the simpli city of the Peeler plow: "A straight piece of board for a beam; an upright wooden piece and handles,—fifteen cents' worth of lumber make the wood work. Four simple iron bars bolted to the beam, and crossing in pairs below, so as to act respectively as braces and counter-braces, make the iron work. The plow may carry two blades, one to turn the soil, and the other to subsoil at the same. time, by the same hand, with the same team, and at, one operation. if the subsoil plow is not needed, it may be detached and laid aside for future use in one minute. Then, to the principal bar, may be attached, in half a minute, any kind of blade or mould that ever has been made,—turaing-blade, shovel, bull tongue, garden-plow, ditching-plow, &c., thus converting the plow into a new variety every time anew blade is attached." GOD'S WORK IN . THE MIDST OF ALARMS. A letter from Dr. Shaußer, of Constantinople, dated Aug. •21st., presents a cheering view of the progress,of a spiritual work amid the agitations and apprehensions lately experienced in that city. The following will be read with lively, interest : In the midst of these fluctuations between fear and hope, the shield of divine protection remained over us, and spiiitual refreshing cheered our hearts., _I was greatly comforted in noticing that our few converts from Islamism appeared firm, intending to meet the storm if it must come.— They 'asked for testimonials of their baptisms, in order to prove, ;if asked what, their religion was. There was no intention perceptible of hiding their religious convictions, or of denying their relation to Christ and his -people. Especially did',lV7r. Williams (Selim-Effendi) maintain his habitual, cheerful and firm Christian spirit, ready to be absent from the body and to be present with Christ any day. But these friends realized the desirableness of closer fellowship With Christ and with one another, in proportion as they felt themselves exposed to daily and hourly peril, andethey therefore requested me to bring them together fora communion season. I consented, - and on the'29th. of July, Sabbath evening, We met at the house'of Mr. Williams, at eight o'clock.. As things looked when I consent ed to 'the proposal, -I conceived it possible. that we might be disturbed by some fanatics ; but, be fore the appointed evening came the public mind had somewhat calmed wn, and we spent a delightful season together, there being none to Molest tis or make us afield. Two of our Moslem communicants were absent, in consequence of their great distance, or perhaps from some other cause, but in their places there were present several Un baptized Mohammedang.. There was a room full as it was. The number of couninmicants vras nine teen; representing eight different nationalities, viz., seven Osmaniees, two. Persians, Cone African, one Israelite, one Irishman; three Americans, three English, and one German myself. I need not tell you what a refreshing season we had.— You know what a missionary cordrunion season is, especially insuelt circumstances. Since then I have been present~ at another occa sion, of a different ohdtacter. Martyn, the Persian, I baptized between three and four years ago, was betrothed ta a ProteStant Armenian girl, .formerly connected with the fernale boarding School. He is in Dr. Pfander's service, occupied flartlyin translation work, hut he labors also among his fellow countrymen here, and penis really to get access ; to these careless Pemians to a very encou raging 'degree; He is firm and tender in his Chris tian charaeter, appears like a growing Christian, and gives Dr. P. great satisfaction. He faithfully cultivates th'e fellowship of his Moslem brethren in Christ. Hamdi Effendi, the nephew of Kieran Pasha, still lives with us. He now visits, not unfrequent ly, the palace of his uncle, in a friendly manner. Temptations to return are put into his way quite liberally, but he has been, entirely firm thus far. There is a very great gain in this fact, as a prece dent, viz., that a converted Mussulman is hospi tably received and courteously treated irr the very house from which he went out, and that the house of' thesecond Pasha in Constantinople I I hope soon :to set Ilaradi Effendi to some missionary work._ -,He is learning the English somewhat slowly. The standard of right and wrong is eternal in the hea.vens,—unchangeably one and the same. But here, on earth, it is perpetually va riable,-Lit is one in one age or nation, another in another. Every profession has its conven tional morality, current nowhere else. That which .is permitted by the peculiar standard of truth acknowledged at the bar, la false hood 'among plain men; that which wouldbe reckoned in the army purity and tenderness, Would' be -elsewhere licentiousness and cruelty. Trade has its honesty, which, rightly named, is fraud. And in all these eases,.the temptation is to live content with the standard of a man's own profession or society; and this is the real difference between the worldling. and the reli gions man. The one lives below that standard, no higher ;.•the other lives above his age. Robertson's Sermons.
