OUR OWN OECUROIt.
First Presbyterian Ohnrob, San Francisco.—
This Church has at last_placed itself virtually out of
debt. Nearly $50,000 have been expended on their
house and lat. A debt of only
.$13,000 remains,
which has been placed in the Savings and Loan So
oiety's Bank. ,Of this amount, the interest and a
part of the principal are paid every month. In
about three years the whole will/be - wiped away. As
a proolof the real life , and spirit. which pervade ; this
church, we would state that the payment of the debt
is 'being made without touching the
,receipts of the
ordinary incorati , ef the church. A monthly subscrip 7 ,
tion for this purpose is provided, and every member;
of the church and congregation has gone into the
work heartily; even the scholars of the Sabbath
school have assumed their share of the bifiden.
They look upon the church as soon to be theirs; they
are to ououpy it and holdit, when their fathers and
mothers, who built it; have passed awn ~ and so have
resolved. identif , themselves • s • • ^ yie c tr
w en they are men.
The ourrent income has, from the opening of the
new house of worship, been more than sufficient to.
defray pastor's salary and all other expensed of the
church, but has not been able to meet, in addition;
the heavy interest on the debt. But now that the
debt is provided for by the extra subscription, the
congregation is virtually free from debt. In addition
to this evidence of prosperity, the congregation is in
creasing in numbers and strength, and enjoys in a
very great degree that union and cordiality which
belongs to a homogeneous body. The pastor is
strongly sustained by his whole church as an ex
pounder of those. great doctrines of Christianity
which' are the safe guards of the nation as well as of
the Church. It is a true church, rind down to the
millennium may it grow, live and prosper.--Pacific.
Qu the Subject of Imputation—one of the most
important points of Christian theology Albert
Ikutrtes says:
"I have examined all the passages in the Old.,Tes
tanint,'and, as the result of myexamination,lave
come to the conolualon that there i s riot one in which
the word , is need in the sense of reckoning or imputing
to a man that which does nut strictly belong to him;
or of charging on hiai that which ought not to be
charged on him as a matter of personal right. The
word is never used to denote imputing in the sense
of transferring, or of charging that on one which
does'het properly' belong to' him. The same is the
case in the NOW Testament."—Teteseope, Dayton, 0.

Rev. Thomas Brainerd, D. D.—The City item,
a respectable weekly journal of this city, prefaces an
abstract of a recent discourse of B's., with smile
interesting remarks touching the'eharacter and rela
. ..
tive prospects of the two leading branches of the
Presbyterian Church, and concerning the preacher
and his charge, which we give below:
Among the Presbyterian clergymen of Philadel
phia, there is quite a number who are acknow
ledged on all sides as men of eminent ability and su
perior attainments. They form of themselves the
best portion of what may be balled the educated mi
nistry of the city. The remark is not intended to
apply exclusively to that branch denominitted, be

though web elieve that t e Uld and New ohms,
the predominance of talent exists in the latter. The
system of training to' which the rip:pilot:at for orders
in the Old Schoo lis submitted, offers a sufficient bar
rier ngainst the reception of candidates who are men
tally unfit for the duties of a minister of the Gospel.
Yet in its ranks-are to be found men who, while their
ifitlente are , admitted to be of the first order, are still
in a certain sense somewhat behind the age. -Old
School Presbyterianism has around it an ancient
order s It had attractions for the Puritans of old.
hi 'stern 'Code of morality was in accordance with the
reeolute, determined piety of the old Covenanters of
Scotland. But the prestige of its great name is
slowly fading away. Its mode of development is not
',doh as one would suppose could harmonize with the
institutions of reptiblican government. In this coun
try it is devoid of enthusiasm and 'vivacity. We look
rather to New School Presbyterianism for these traits,
and are not disappointed in our search.
The Presbyterian Oherips of Philadelphia are
thus divided:—
New School, eighteen churches, thirty-one minis
ters; Old School, thirty-three churches, thirty-three
'ministers. It will be perceived that the number of
churches belonging to the Old School branch is
nearly double the New School.
Among the ministers attached to the first class,
n'ens, perhaps,_ hold higher rank than the Rev. Thos.
Brainerd, D. D„ pastor of the Third Presbyterian
Church. Dr. Brainerd has been attached to his.pre
sent congregation for upwards of twenty-three years,
during which time the most cordial sympathy has
proVailed between the pastor and his charge.
Their church edifice is nearly a century old. The
foundation stone was laid in times when our good
city made no pretension to cope, as it now does, with
the largest and most influential in the world. On
the roll of the members of this church may be found
many of'Philadelphia's , honored dead.

ITnien Church, St. Louis.—Thie church, in' Ja•
teary last, was received upon its application, into
the Old Sobool Presbytery of St,. Louis. According
to , the St.• Louis Presbyterian of our Union, they had
with difficulty been able to sustain themselves, and
took the step under the individual assurance of ac
cessions to their number, each as would sustain 'and
give them enlarged ability to carry on their church,
and serve the cause of Christ.
Their pastor, Rev. J. J. Porter, bus recently fol
lowed them. Among other remarks made by Mr. P.,
at the occasion of withdrawing from the St. Louis
Presbytery, he is reported, by the same paper, .as
having said that:
"As he had endeavored to serve the Church of
Christ in the New School connection, without being
anti-Old School, so he hoed to serve in the Old School
without being anti-New School.. If there was one de
sire in his heart higher than another with reference
to the American Presbyterian Church, it was for the
spirit and the fact of Union, and -be hoped the day
had nearly come when old differences would be for
gotten on both, sides, and ministers could pass freely
from either side to the other, as they felt called,
without a storm of abuse being raised about them."
A eeries of resolutions were adopted by , the St.
Louis Presbytery, and remarks made by Rev. Dr.
Nelson, which are thus spoken of by the same jour-

espoused, &0., and glad to know that in going out of
that body, he "endorses our faith," that he is "no

men are not—that is a doctrine not to be preached,

Synod of lowa.—The subjeotrivhich elicited a
two days' discussion, was the site"of a denOmipational
College, to be endowed by a valtable legacy by the
late S. B. Parsons, his sons being ftrbiter& and exe
cutors of the same. Though several of the members
of Synod were very . desirous to have Kossuth and
Yellow Springs deStgaated as respectively. the • site
and the college, it was nevertheless decided that
action on this 'Joint, at present, was both inexpedient
and useless, Mr. Parsons himself being *sent, and

is some probability the college will be located. :

Historical Discourse.--The Knoxville Presbyte
rianless says
Last Sabbath, 13th instant, was a day of special
interest to the congregation of the Second Presbyte
rian Church in this place. Their old house of wor
ship is about to he torn down, preparatory to-the oc
cupation of a new edifice, and this was the last - Lord's
day on which it would be used. In the morning'the
pastor, Rev. J. H. Martin, preached a sermon appro
priate to the occasion. The text was taken from Efe
brews, viii. 13: "Now that which decriyeth "and
waxeth' old, is ready to vanish away."
The 0, S. Synod of Philadelphia; recently in
session in Germantown, agreed, after considerable
disc fission, to divide the Presbyteiy of Philadelphia
into two Presbyteries.
A petition from the Presbytery of Northumberland
was received, asking to be set off from turning the
Presbyteries under the judicial control of the Synod
of Philadelphia, in order that that Presb,ytery, toge
ther with two at present iepresented in the Synod of
New Jersey, might form a new Synod. After a
-lengthy, debate, the prayer of the petitioners was
•
granted.
.OONGREG&TIONALIST.
:State of the Churches in Vermont. —Notwith
standing the lack of revivals within the past year, a
very good degree of prosperity has attended the Ver
mont Churches. The genuineness of the revivals in
1858 and 1859, has been attested by the fidelity and
perseverance of those whom they brought into the
churches. The piety of these new members is very
generally a working piety, and has had a good influ
ence on the older members. Probably the Vermont
churches have never before sustained so large a num
ber of out-poet meetings, prayer meetings, and Sab
bath schools, as they are now doing. The attendance
on public worship is also much increased ; In some
instance the increase has been quite remarkable; as,
for example, in Westfield, where the attendance has
nearly doubled, filling the house to its very utmost
capacity.
The Second Sabbath of November, A DAY 0F
SPECIAL PRAYER FOR THE' OUTPOURING OF VIE HOLY
SPIRIT.—At the late meeting of the Congregational
Union of Canada, the following recommendation was
unanimously adopted:—
"Resolved, That the churches and ministers be re
' commended to observe the second Sabbath of Novem
ber, as a day of,special prayer for the outpouring of
the Holy Spirit on our land.
Forty-Four Members of Dr. Cheever's church
have forwarded an address to British Christians, ex
horting them not to contribute pecuniary aid to their
congregation. They say:—
"While we sincerely and gratefully acknowledge
and reciprocate the sympathy which you express for
us in the great battle of human freedom, may we not
believe . that the Spirit of wisdom from on, high will
lead you to see and acknowledge the propriety of
non-intervention in the affairs of our individual
church and society?"

LUTHERAN
The -Evankelical Lutherrin Synod of Illinois
passed resolutions declaring their adherence to the
Augsburg. Confession. as. a basis of doctrine, adding
the following— ,
4. That we would respectfully•suggest to the Ge
neral-Synod at its nest meeting to take into conside
ration the`propriety of inserting in Art. III: Sec. 3,
,
or at some other suitable place in its Constitution, a
distinct recognition of the Augsburg Confession, in
order that no room may be left for the cavils of the
opponents of the General Synod, who have repre
sented if as destitute -of a distinctively Lutheran cha
racter:
5. That as disciples of Christ, and `delighting more
in the experience of his saving truth and life-giving
grace, than in ecclesiastical disputations and doctri
nal controversies, we pledge ourselves to refrain from
all offensive obtrusion of known differences among
us 'upon each 'other, and though differing in our in
terpretation of. several points of the Confession, it
shall always be our chief delight to preach the plain,
practical, and saving truths of the Gostel to the end
that Christian piety may be revived among our peo
ple, and sinners converted to God. ' • .

The Mormons.—lf we• may rely upon the ac-
counts that retch us from newspapers and ' corre
spondents in relation to Utah and the state of affairs
among•the Mormons, Brigham Young has very little
idea at the present timeof leaving the railer of the
Great Salt. Lake with his followers. In fact, a revi
val of the old Mormon spirit seems to be going for
ward, which is likely to lead to `amore firm e stab
lishment of the Saints in that region than ever be
fore. The tabernacle which, for some time after the
advent of the United States troops, re.nained closed,.
has recently been once more opened for public wor
ship, and Brigham himself harangues the people two
or thrCe titnes every Sabbath. Missionaries are also
being, sent out to Europe and other countries, among
whose number is the greatly celebrated Elder Orson
The New York Evangelical Alliance, an or
ganization based upon the midnight meeting move-.
went in London, held a meeting on Thursday-eve
ning, October llth, at which it was `decided to have
open-air, preaching during the sprineand summer
months, and for the occupation of theatres or 'halls
during the winter season. One place is to be: opened
upon Broadway every Sunday evening. Halls and
cellars are recommended in the lower wards of this
city. The members, mostly young men connected
with the different evangelical churches of 'that city,
have entered into the matter with spirit, and much
good is now anticipated to result from this organiza
tion.

A Prussian Clergyman has come to this coun

Awakening Among the Friends in Eastern
Ohio.—Steubenville, Ohio, Oct. 1860.—Recently the
Friends or Quakers of the orthodox party held their
yearly meeting at Mt. Pleasant, Jefferson county. I
have heard from aflthentic sources that an unusual
spirit of prayer prevailed among them. Certain eve
ningswere named in which little companies met for
conversation and prayer. One after another partici
pated with an interest and unction never known
among them before. Young men, led in prayer who'
had Dever been known to pray before in public or
private. These vocal prayers and praises were pro
longed, in some instances, till after midnight. Even
then they seemed reluctant to adjourn. For many
years these people have annually met'at this Jerusa
lem of theirs. They have had their controversies,
divisions and troubles; but ,this year the Spirit of
the Lord met them, and they found it good to be
there.—N. Y. Observer.

Neglect of Ordinanees.—On the occasion of the
celebration of the communion service by the Univer
salist Convention in Boston, the preacher stated that
threo•fourths of their congregations neglect' this or
dinance altogether.
The Universalist Denomination, whose repre
sentative men are now in Boston from all parts of the
country, in National Convention assembled, extends
over all sections`of the Union. It has 692 preachers,
969 meeting-houses, and 1276 societies. In twenty
two of the States, Conventions are annually held, and
in fifteen of the States, there, are organizations; for
various moral and religious purposes. Its distinctive
theology is advocate,d in seventeen periodioals,. and
taught in three colleges, a theological school, and six
academies. ;
-A Ilinister Speaking from an Immense Speak

easy as in the smallest, by the success of an experi
ment just completed in Trinity Church, in this city.
consists of a paraboloidal reflector of sound, placed
at the back of the pulpit, of which the speaker's
mouth is the focus. A beam of sound about ten feet
in diameter, is thus thrown to the most remote point
of the church, and by its side-flow fills the whole
body of the building. The structure is quite orna
mental, and in harmony with the general architecture
of the building. All great public buildings, whether
for singing or speaking, may have a similar arrange.
ment adapted to their use. The whole of the rear
end of a building like the Academy of Music should
be on% paraboloidal surface. It is particularly suita
ble for legislative halls, as it works both ways. A
person standing at the furthest door in Trinity
Church can carry on a conversation with one in the
pulpit in the lowest tones, even in a whisper. Any
person well acquainted with the higher mathematics
and accustomed to make constructions in architec
ture, engineering or machinery, is competent to su
perintend such an erection. The one in TrinitY
Church was put. up under the supervision of Profea
tier Hackley, of Columbia College, in this city.
No Shaving on. Sunday.—The principal bar

Imbeciles on Randall's Island.—A movement
is making in several of the New York journals, for
the improvement of the condition of the idiotcbildron,
nearly forty in number, now at the Nursery on Ran
dall's Island. Such an enterprise meets th,4 heartiest
sympathy, of every philanthropic heart. That the
condition of most of these children can be greatly im
proved, admits of no doubt; that some of them may
become intelligent and capable of taking care of
themselves,
the wonderful change effected in two of
them, (Natty and Willie) taken from there in 1831,
and educated in'the State Asylum, at Syracuse, abun
dantly proves.

Destructive Fire.--A Max BADLY *BURNT.-013
the evening of the 15th, a:fird took place at, the ex
tensive coal-oil works of Helme & Co., situate on the
east side of 'Bridgewater street s % the 24th ward, be
tween the Market street and the Wire bridges which,
besides destroying a large anion= of property, came
near resulting fatally. Three men Isaac Helms;
of the proprietor,) Daniel iIl
Brown' and Wm.
Smith, were at work in the second story of the fao
tory,,pumping petroleum 011/from one large tank, to
another. In the course of their labor, one of them
held an uncovered lamp over the tank, when instantly
the whole mass of oil ignited with the rapidity of
gunpowder, enveloping the whole building in Niles.
Helme sprang to the Window, and escaped by setking
a rope and lowering himself to the ground. He was
severely burned about the hands and face.
The whole building was completely destroyed, to
gether with the machinery and apparatus, tanks,
stills, &c., and abOut two thousand five hundred gal
lons of. oil. The loss will amountlo between thirty
and forty thousand dollars, upon which there is not
a dollar of insurance.

of business men that have the legard of all who ri
spect upright dealing. Philadelphia, when spoken of
in its business capacity, is synonymous with honor,
and her example relieves the American name from
much of the odium that often attaches to a coin
mereial people." „

Cabe, sixteen years of age, was arrested on Saturday,
on the charge of having, at various times, robbed the

The Place for Murderers.--There is no law
existing in. New York for punishing those guilty of
murder in the first degree. The Supreme Court has
decided that the statute,of 1860 , in its application to
persons under conviction at, the time of its passage,
is unconstitutional' and 'void, as ex post facto, bedame'
it prescribes a different and increased punishment
-from that in force at the time When .the offence was
committed. To the punishment of death it super-,
adds one year's imprisonment at hard labor. The
Courkalso expressed the opinion that the new law,
having abolished the only statute kfining hanging
as the mode of punishment, and itself prescribing no
new mode; there is now no known sentence which
can' be pronounced . againsta person convicted of mur-:
der in the first degree.

The Papal ,States.—The Pope bas written yet
another prOtest denouncing Sardinia, and appealing
to the Catholic Powers for protection to his tiara and
possessions. Napoleon bad replied, reaffirming his
theory of non-intervention, and coldly hinting to his
Holiness the. propriety of taking care of, himself.
Spain had proposed a Congress of Catholic Powers
to `take the matter into consideration, and determine
upon what was best to be done with the Pope'. The
proposition, however, bad as:yet brought no response.'
The only provinces left to the. Papal Government
are Civita Vecchia, Frosinone and Velletria.
There' have been some mOdifications in Garibaldi's
Ministry, to meet the views of the Neapolitans.
I3ertani has been dismissed.
A better feeling now exists between Garibaldi and
Victor Emmanuel.
The latest despatches from the seat of war say that
the Piedmuntese Lancers galloped close to the gates
of Rome in their pursuit of the Pontifical troops.
' The Cologne Gazette publishes the text of the offi
cud note from Lord John Russell, warnina b Sardinia

Condition of Venice—A correspondent of the
Letnion Times writes from Vienna, Sept. 20th
`The political excitement in Venice is very great,
m'purchase; o Tem in fy ardmi; g asf been,
broached, and jt is hinted that Napoleon wishes the
Austrian Emperor to dispose of it for $120,000,000.
At the close of the war it seetlis'that Francis Joseph
would hive taken $200,000,000, but the amount was
considered too great by Sardinia by one-half, and ac
cordingly the bargain fell to the ground. Pride and
chagrin now will operate at Vienna, and although' the
retention of the province beggars Austria and threat
ens to delUge Europe with blood, nothing will be
done so simple and so common-sense as to transfer it
for a fair equivalent..
Syria.—Letters froni Syria say that many addi
tional arrests of distinguished Chiefs had produced a
panic, among the Druses concerned in the massacre
of the Christians.
The Monileur.sass:--" The affairs of Syria have
entered on a new phase. Military action will now
be exercised by our troops. Some other chiefs have
been arrested and tried at:l3cyrout."
Bankrupt Austria.—Upon the ability of Austria
to fight now mainly rests the great question of peace
or war in Europe. That is, upon her pecuniary abi
lity.
There is no knowing what foolish attempts may be
made by the Emperor of Austria, inheriting all the
obstinacy and pride of his race, to regain Lombardy,
to restore the runaway Grand Dukes, to bolster up
the Papal sovereignty and, perhaps, to restore the
fugitive King of Nap es. But want of money is
likely to be a great impediment to all, or any, of
these attempts., The finances of the Austrian Em
pire are in a dreadfol state of confusion, and these
complications have brought it next door to bank
ruptcy. , Rothschild and Baring are not likely, under
Such circumstances, to lend any more Money to Aus
tria. - Should the Empire break up, which is probe
blcr enlh, the great money-lenders may have to
whistle their debt.

Garibaldi's great victory.
The battle was fought at Volturno. The details of
the fight describe it as a protracted and bloody strug
gle. The Neapolitan forces were drivenlidek in dia. :

killed, besides 5000 who were taken prisoners.
The loss on Garibaldi's side was estimated atlrom
1200 to 2000. •
There had been. no military movements `reported
since. the_battle, and the affairs of the Papal States
are unchanged."
