OUR OWN CHURCH.
Shelter Island, L. I. Sound.—Within the last
eleven years the church has been greatly blessed "with
repeated revivals. The winters of 1849,'56, and 'sa,
were seasons of remarkable displays of divine grace.
The last one was the most memorable for the mighty
power of God, made manifest in the number of hope
ful converaions, and in the remarkable.., answers to
prayer 'rattle salvation of sinners. During that sea
son nearly one hundred expressed hope in Christ.
At the close of that winter, four-fifths of the popula
tion, over the age of fourteen, indulged hope in the
mercy of God.—N. Y. Observer.
Rev. T. 0. Seeley, has been engaged to supply
the pulpit of the Second Presbyterian Church, Cleve
land, beginning , Oct. 27th.
RAM Horace 0. Hovey has resigned his face as
District Secretary cif the American and Foreign
Christian Union, and has accepted a call to the Pres
byterian Church of Coldwater, Mich.
Rev. Maltby Gelston has closed his connection
with the Presbyterian church of Albion,Michigan,
to accept the appointment of District Scretary of
American and Foreign Christian Union for Michigan,
Northern Indiana, and Northern Ohio,
Ordination.—The Presbytery, of Newark, on the
31st ult,, ordained Mr. Charles T. Haley to the mi
nistry, and installed him paator of the Presbyterian
chureh in Roseville, a Northwestern suburb of New
ark, N. J. The services were conducted by Revs.
Ebenezer Cheever, J. Few Smith, J. F. Pengry, and
Mr. Pierson, of the Passaic Presbytery, (0. S.). Mr.
Haley comes cordially into our connexion, with are
gnlar letter of dismission and recommendation from
the Presbytery of New York, Old School.
Dr. Murdook.—At a late meeting of the Presby
tery of Cheinung, the pastoral relation between Rev.
Dr. Murdock and the Presbyterian church and con
gregation of Elmira was dissolved, to take effect on
the let day of December next.
Return of Rev. Dr. Adams.—Rev. Dr. Adams,
of the Madison Square Presbyterian Church, N. Y,
with his family, returned from Europe, on Monday,
in the Adriatic. He is in good health, and at the
monthly Missionary Prayer-meeting on Monday eve
ning, joyfully united with his people in gratitude to
God. Dr. A. spoke of the voyage as one of the short
est ever made, and yet weary and boisterous. On
shipboard they had religious exercises, and if there
was any place where dependence on God's goodness
and care was more marked than any other, and any
spot above all others suggestive of prayer, it was on
the boundless sea, surrounded only by fathomless
waters.
Dr. Adam alluded to the beautiful sunshine and
bright atmosphere which greeted them on Monday
morning, as they entered New York harbor. The
Niiost attractive piece of architecture he had seen du
le'rig his absence was Sandy Hook lighthouse, and
he most beautiful scenery New York bay. - He re
arked that the weather had been unusually dismal
n Europe during the summer. The clear sunny days
be might almost number on his fingers. How the
harvests had ripened at all, he could hardly under
stand. He had seen the crops of entire fields black
with blight and decay, and the prospects for a time
were gloomy beyond description. The -bright sun
and cheering atmosphere of our own wintry, how
exhilarating, and what causes for gratitude and
thanksgiving.
Dr. Adams briefly spoke of the disturbed state'of
Europe, and the feverishness which everywhere pre
'trails on the Continent. It seems as if each man dis-
trusted his neighbor, and hourly, people were looking
' for some new revelation of public offline, or a sudden
revolutionary outbreak. The progress of the contest
in Italy had produced a profound sensation, and old
empires are. tottering to their foundation. Dr. A.
spoke of the most extraordinary panic which exists
in every part of Great Britain. The apprehended
invasion of England by Franco had taken such strong
hold of the English people, that it was impossible to
sooth their fears. In this apprehension the organi
zation of the local militia all over the kingdom ori
ginated, which is now everywhere the subject of deep
exciting interest. Dr. A. said the alarm was not
confined to any one class; but business men, the
clergy, and statesmen, all alike shared the apprehen
sion. He said he could nut imagine the ground of
such a panic, but he heard it from the mouths of ell
classes. Even some of his distinguished clerical
friends told him that they feared they should yet
have todefend their homes along the green lanes and
from behind the hedges of their beloVed England.—

Sabbath-Schools of the Second Presbyterian
Church of Cincinnati .— On the 28th of October,
these schools, eight in number, held their annual
meeting. Some 1,200 scholars, and 150 teachers,
with interested friends, filled the spacious church to
overflowing. The singing, under the direction of 0.
N. Bush, Esq., was truly inspiring. Prayer was of
fered by the Rev. H. A. Tracy, and addresses deli
vered by the pastor, Dr. Thompson, the Rev. I. Ches
ter, of the West End mission, and the Rev. B. W.
eli . idlaw, of the American Sunday-Schoul Union.
•Ilum church is prosecuting the Sabbath-school work
with grant energy and success. Its schools number
1,700 scholars, nod 175 teachers. In seven localities
MS.
in the city they have planted the Sabbath•school ban
ner in the name of the Lord. One of these points is
already occupied by an organized church, and a faith
ful pastor who,
on yesterday, led 300 scholars in this
Sabbath-school army. This Sabbath-school mission
ary work finds in Dr. Thompson an earnest and
warm-hearted advocate and friend. These schools
already feel the influence of his sympathy and co
operation; superintendents and teachers feel the in
spiration of his words and example, and will prose-.
cute their mission of love with new zeal and strong
faith.—S. S. Times.
The Rev. V. D. Collins.—lt will• gratity all the
friends of this highly esteemed brother to know that
he has gone to 'Washington city for a few months to
be assistant minister in the Assembly's church, in
connection with the pastor, Rev. John C. Smith, D.
D. This is the church long under the ministry of
Rev. Mr. Carothers whose health compelled him to
cease from pastoraClabor, and who was to sail in the
Bark "Teresa," from New York, last week, for the
West Indies, to enter upon his duties as U. S. Con
sul, at Turk's Island, We congratulate the congre
gation in Washington in securing the services of bro
ther Collins, whose extensive travels, (having been
extended through Europe, Asia, Africa and South
America, indeed, round the world,) and whose kind 1
and earnest address cannot fail to secure him the
cordial interest of the people, and great success in
the important field to which he has been invited.
Deposed from the Ministry.—At the last stated
meeting of the St. Joseph Presbytery, held at Laporte,
Indiana, on the 16th inst., the following minute was
unanimously adopted, viz.:
Whereas, NOBLE ARMSTRONG, a member of this
Presbytery, stands charged, by common fame, with
unministerial and unchristian conversation and con
duct of a licentious character, also with falsehood,
and,
Whereas, he contumaciously conceals his address,
and refuses to obey the citations of Presbytery, two
of which we have
,proof that he has received, and,
Whereas, in the opinion of this Presbytery, the
charges are fully sustained by the evidence before us,
Resolved, That he bit, and hereby is desnosero
the gospel ministry, and excommunicated from the
Church, also,
Resolved, That the Stated Clerk be directed to for
ward copies of the above action of Presbytery to the
"Central Christian Herald, N. Y. Evangelist, N. Y.
Observer, American Presbyterian and Genesee Evan
gelist, and Independent."
E. PARRAND, Stated Clerk.
OTHER BRANCHES OF THE PB.ESBYTE-
RIAN CHURCH.
The Knoxville Presbyterian Witne.s,s, organ of
the United Synod, South, has announced its final ap
pearance in connection with its issue of the 25th of
October. We clip the following from its columns of
that date:
"The publishers of the WITNESS have decided that
this shall be the last number issued by them. Three
more numbers would have completed a year since
the present editors assumed their post, and it was
our desire that the paper should regularly appear till
the expiration of the year. But the publishers having
determined to discontinue with this number, we an
nounce the fact.
Intimations have been given and expectations ex
cited that the paper will be transferred to Richmond.
This of course depends on the action of brethren in
Virginia. The Synod of Virginia is now in session
at Alexandria, and we are assured the subject of the
removal of the paper will be brought forward in that
body. It is impossible for us to say what new ar
rangement will be made, or how soon the publication
will be resumed. If the removal to Richmond be ef
fated, we suppose but a short time will elapse be
fore the subscribers receive the paper as usual.'
Rev. David Montfort, D. D., of the "Old School"
.Church, deceased at Macomb, Illinois, October 18th,
aged 70 years.
The German Reformed Church in the West.—
Some time since the "Evangelist," (German) gave a
statistical summary of the growth of the German Re
formed Church in the West during the last ten years.
The editor gave, as the result of a careful exatnina
tion of the subject, an increase of only six hundred
members, and the actual membership of the Western
Synod be computed at 14,450. One cause of this al
leged limited numerical growth he said was an ef
fort to introduce English, a proof of which he thought
he bad discovered in the comparatively small increase
and in some cal.es actual decrease, of those Classes
which are prevailingly English.
The last number of the Kirchenzeitung contains an
article in reply, from the pen of the Rev. J. G. Zak,-
ner, in which . he presents facts and figures to show
that the Evangelist was in_error.--__The_result of _his
earculation showi that the Western Synod at present
numbers 22,922 communicant members, and that the
German Reformed Church in the West has now
7,992 . m0re communicant members than she had ten
years ago.-111-essenper.
LUTHERAN.
Hoicie issions.—The state of the treasury of the
Home Missionary Society unmistakably indicates the
necessity of returning to the agency system in order
to raise the requisite funds to carry on the work of
the Society. It was thought at the time that the
Executive Committee withdrew its agent from the
field, that the.churches would send in their contribu
tions at stated periods without being solicited by an
agent, and for some time funds kept flowing into the
treasury, but of late the Executive Committee have
been compelled to reduce their expenditures for the
want of means.—Lutheran, Observer.
Resignation and Aeoeptanee.—The Rev. J.
M'Cr in, D. D., of the third English Lutheran. Church
in Baltimore, has presented his resignation, which
his congregation reluctantly accepted. Dr. M'Cron
has many devuted friends in that section of the city,
who, together with his people, are sorry to part with
him. Having accepted a call from the first English
Lutheran Church, he Will shortly enter upon his du
ties there. Unhappily a part of the congregatios‘
will withdraw, it is thought, to organize a new church,
of which Dr. Stork has been invited to be pastor. It
has been no doubt wisely permitted that they should
differ, for this disagreement will give us another con
gregation in Baltimore. The Lord has stirred up
their nest, as doth the eagle, and He will bear them
up and teach them to fly.—lbid.
FOREIGN.
Germany.—Several Evangelical organizations for
the advancement of the kingdom of Christ held their
annual meeting in the capital of Prussia in June
last. We give a summary view'of these' meetings,
condensed from the Berlin Kirchenzeilung:
THE PASTORAL AID [HOME MISSIONARY] SOCIETY
celebrated its nineteenth anniversary on the 4th of
June. It employs, ten missionaries, three in Berlin
and the others in variant parts of the country.
THE BERLIN SOC. FOR THE SPREAD OF CHRISTIANITY
AMONG THE JEWS, reported a considerable increase of
funds as the result of a government order issued for
the first time in the thirty-eight years of the history
of the Society, in 1359, and appointing the tenth Sun
day after Trinity for preaching on the subject and
taking up a collection. Prof. Cassel, who is laboring
in connexion with the Society, had a kliitory of the
Jews since the dedruction of Jerusalem, in press at
the time of the anniversary. Eight 'keels were re
ported as converted.
THE SpC. F'pli THE SPREAD OF CHRISTIANITY AMONG
Tuit HEATHEN has the chief seat of its operations in
South Africa. Since 1857 there has been an increase
of fifteen laborers. Thirteen colonists, of various
callings, have been sent out to different places. Two
schools for missionaries' children have been estab
lished, at the Mission stations, it appears.
The report of the Society contained some extraor
dinary statements, as fur instance, that missions to
the heathen were just now, with few exceptions, in
the day of small things. No German Missionary
Society was in debt, whereas, in countries where `re
vivals ' (the English word, untranslated, is given) were
in progress, they , had sunk deeper and deeper in debt.
The `Kirchenzeitung,' in response to this assertion,
shows that in tbe four leading British Societies there
bad been an increase of more than sixteen thousand
pounds sterling for the year, ending in May, 1860.
At the PASTORAL CONFERENCES held at this time,
Dr. Stahl made his speech in opposition to the new
Synodal Constitution, which resulted in the with
drawal of Dr. Hoffman from the Executive Com
mittee.
THE BERLIN BRANCH OF THE GUSTAVUS ADOLPHUS
SOCIETY celebrated its anniversary on the 19th of
June. Among the many objects of its beneficence
is a German Evangelical Church in Constantinople,
which numbers from five to six hundred souls, and
raises from twenty-five hundred to three thousand
thalers for church purposes yearly. Fifty-eight then
sand thalers have been collected in Prussia during
four years, for this organization. Twenty-seven thou
sand of this was spent in erecting a school house, the
remainder is at interest, and is ultimately to be ex
pended in erecting a church in a public part of the
city.
The Grand Duchy of Hesse.—Much obscurity
prevails in regard to the relations of the Government
with the Roman Catholic Bishop of Mentz. It is of
ficially denied that, any concordat has been framed
with the Amish See. Au Evangelical deputy from
a mtfitti.H.t
:. m ..;_. _
:.seoitftttt4tt
Alsace has prepared an address to the Grand Duke,
setting forth the advantages to the Evangelical
Church of a suitable Presbyterial and Synodal Con
stitution. A movement towards Church Sessions,
Presbyteries and Synods, has also been made in the
Friedberger Evangelical Conference, in the same
country.
The Armenian Converts in Constantinople.—
TU Berlin New Evangelical `Kirchenzeitung' pub
lishes the appeal of the church gathered among the
Artrienian converts under the missionaries of the
An Board, for means to erect their own church
building. It is signed by "The Committee for the
Evangelical American Church Building, and for
the training of Evangelical Armenian preachers in
Germany," and by the Committee of the "German
branch: of the Evangelical Alliance." Among the
names are those of Dr. Hoffman, Ranke, and Krum
macher. These tokens of sympathy, uniting the
Christians of two widely separated countries, by
means of a Christian body, gathered in the capital of
the followers of the False Prophet, are deeply inte
resting. The same journal reports a total of contri
butions for Father Chiniquy's colony of 3,292 thalers.
From the Last Report of the Vaudois Table,
the Kirchenzeitang gathers that out of about twenty
two thousand Waldenses, seven thousand three hun
dred are at church in the morning, and eighteen
hundred in the afternoon. Of 4,372 families, but
392 are reported as regularly holding family wor
ship, although the Bible is very generally read. The
number of communicants last year reached nine
thousand nine hundred and forty. On the whole,'
this is far from a flattering exhibition. As a hopeful
indication, however, the Table points to the 48
weekly prayer meetifigs which were attended with
constantly increasing interest during the past win
ter.
,
The Evangelical Conference of Switzerland,
held its third annual conference in Zurich on the sth
and 6th of June. The, delegates expected from the
canton of Vaud failed to appear, on account of go
vernment prohibition. The common celebration of

univerial. The most important matters aecomplished
by the Conference were the adoption of a Sacramen
tal Liturgy for the military, the preliminary ar
rangements for . a uniform translation of the Scrip
hires for the German Evangelical communities, which
*ill supply a' grave and pressing want, and the
adoption of, a constitution for the body , which now
for the first time is organized and permanent. The
next meeting will be held in. Basle.
Huitgary.—Notwithstanding the imperial patent
of. September 1, 1859, was hotly resisted by such of
the Hungarian Protestants as would be content with
nothing less than absolute autonomy for their church,
some churches and•communities, particularly among
the German Evangelicals, conformed to its requisi
tions and took the steps preparatory to a complete
reorganization of the Protestant church. The Em
peror has, however, yielded to the clamors of the, op
posers, so far as to withdraw the .penalty of the dis
solution of church courts and nullification of their
acts in case of disobedience, suffering the recusants
to take pretty much their own course. But not con
tent with this, the recusants desire to make it appear
that the patent itself has been abandoned, and that
those communities and churches which have reorga
nized on its provisions are virtually where they were
before. Effort is made to bring about a movement
for a General Synod, which shall be entirely inde
pendent of the government. Much confusion is the
result. The ‘Kirchenzeitung' says that the royal
letter%expressly names the two superintendencies
which were reorganized on the basis of the patent,
with the command that they remain in their existing
cOndition. The end of this dispute is not yet. it
maybe swallowed up in more general disturbances,
resulting, in a political revolt against Austria.
The Seminary Building at Strasburg, once an
ancient monastery, built by the Dominicans in the
fourteenth century, frequented by Tauier, and for
three centuries the training school of the Evangelical
clergy of Alsace, was destroyed by fire on the 29th
of June. Fifty students were left shelterless. The
Gymnasium, too, founded by Sturm, lost the great
eht part of its Lecture Saloons.
Provision for the Religious Destitution of
German Immigrants to America.—'rheso deed
tutions are represented in Germany as great and
melancholy. The Evangelical Lutheran Synod of
WiSconsin are in communication with a society in
the 'Rhine district, with a view to obtain an itinerant
preacherirorn Germany, to labor among the rapidly
increasing and destitute communities of immigrants
to the North West.

Evangelical Pastoral Conference at Berlin on account

of that kingdom.
Baden.—ln place of the concordat with Rome—
which at one time seemed likely to be consummated,
the project of a law, giving a good degree, of freedom
—both to the Roman and the Evangelical churches,
has been prepared and laid before the chainher of
deputies. This is a step entirely unprecedented in
the history of this country. Here, for the first time,
the Evangelical churches appear as one body, and
under the protection of the laws; of course, they
are of one mind as to the acceptableness of the
measure.
Foreign Nissionary Intelligence,—A regular
monthly meeting of the New York and Brooklyn
Missionary Society was held on Monday, Nov. sth,
at the rooms of the American Board, in New York.
The following is an outline of the intelligence com
municated.
SYRIA.-A general letter from the Mission, dated
Beirut, Sept. Bth, speaks very hopefully of the pros
pects of the missionary work. At Beirut the press
is working, the female school is in operation; the
male school Might be but for the use of the school.:
room for refugees from the mountain ; the transla
tion of the Scriptures has been resumed; the printing
of the voweled edition of the New TestaiOnt is about
to be commenced; the missionary chapel-is crowded;
anU there ism >re direct missionary. work to be done
than ever before. Just'now, all the missionariee Eire
hard pressed with distributing charities to the suf
fering.
Mr. Calhoun keeps ,up preaching services at Abeih
and Ammon. The congregations-.are larger than
before the war. The common schools Ei,t both places
have been reopened at the urgent request - of 'both
Christians and Drusee. It is, expected that the male
seminary will be recommenced at Abeih, and the fe
male, at Suk-el-Ghurb, in November. "Deir-el-Komr
is not, at present open, but we are inclined to think
that even there, after a longer or shorter time, a door
will again be opened, wider than before."
Mr. Vord continues at Sidon, which place, in itself
considered, is a more important station than ever, be
fore, in consequence of the large number of refugees
gathered there, principally from Haebeiya and-its vi
cinity. The work in Cana, and Alma, and Mari 'Ayun
continues to go 014" so that Mr. Ford will need all the
assistance, which can be given him. Hasbeiyi itself;
for the present, has, nothing for the missionaries to
do, all the Christian inhabitants being either at Da
mascus, Beirut, or Sidon.
The Mission letter says:—"Every previous revo
lution which this land has passed through, since the
establishment of the mission, has tended, in its re
sults, to facilitate rather than to impede'the work of
the gospel, and we believetha,t these recent upheavings
will, by the divine power:and wisdom; be made to
contribute to the same end."
An interesting account was read.of a Monthly
Concert meeting in Aintab. That Church is of the
true Apostolic type. Eighteen ofits members labor
as missionaries among the destitute. The progress
of a spiritual work invarious parts of the field of This
Mission continues to be remarkable.
Instances were given of a self-denying liberality in
behalf of the gospel in places bordering on the Eu
phrates and elsewhere, which are an instructive ex
ample to Christians in this land. At Aintab amen,
whose whole income is two dollars a month, insisted
on giving four dollars as a "jubilee offering," to the
American Board. He gave it with "tears of joy,"
and no expectation of gain from. the act.
• WESTERN TURKEY.-A. "jubilee meeting" of great
interest was held in the chapel of the Dutch Embae
sy, in Constantinople, at the same time, with 'the
meeting of the American Board in Boston. ,
Among the Bulgarians of European Turkey, Mr.
Byingtou'reports interesting facts from Eski &gra.
The native helper has preached, by invitation, in two
Bulgarian ohurcbesin one of them several times.
The priests seem faVorably disposed. Some of them
are -serious-minded men, and well acquainted with
the Scriptures.
Terrible Things in Righteousness.—Dr. King,
writing from Athens recently, refers to the terrible
war of the Druzee against the Idaronites, in Syria,
and says:
"Do you remember the history of Asaad-Esh-Shi
diak, as published many years ago by the American
Board? Once they , led him out from his little cell,
or di;ngeun, and presented to him on the one hand
an image of the Virgin Mary, and burning coals on
the other; and ordered him to embrace either the One
or the other! and he took the coals and pressed theni
to his lips, and returned to his narrow, filthy prison
to diel, Those coals have now kindled a flame.on
Mt. Lebanon, which has consumed all the villages
and habitations of hie persecuters! "Terrible things
in righteousness.' An avenging God is a consuming
fire,'

Another Statement.—Baltimore, November Bth.
—The ruernhts.s of the &Oen' Board here have des
patches to-day from prominent parties in South Ca 7
rolina and other SouthEirn States, which give as
surance that no secession or disunion is contemplated
at present, or under Buchanan's Adminiiitration, nor
at any other time. unless Overt acts are committed by
Mr. Lincoln. The excitement is cooling down in
Virginia, and the general.sentiment is to await the
issues and test the Republican Administration. The
same feeling is gaining strength everywhere in Ma
ryland with all parties.—inguirer.,
The President has expiessed his determination
to enforce every Federal 141 v, and the position that
no Southern State has any clause for secession.
General Resignation of Senators.---Augusta,
Georgia, Nov. 10th.--Senathr Toombs, of Georgia,
and Chestnut, of , South Cardlina, have resigned.
Dr. Lyman Beecher, who cast his first vote for
Washington,•was taken by his son, on Tuesday, to
the,polls, that he inight casthis last vote for Lincoln.
As the venerable man, with flowing and silvery
locks, entered the room, the crowd parted right and
left, and silently made ,way for;him.
There was a fire at .4.4lkstor House, N.Y.,
recently, which consumed a great deal of property.
The flames broke out in :the morning, about half
past eight o'clock, in some of the upper stories.
Two waiters were so injuredby the fire that one of
them died, while the other is not expected to live.
There was -intense excitement among the guests of
the hotel during the progress of the flames, and
slight accidents occurred, The damage is estimated
at fifteen thousand dollars.
At the Election in litailand, the question of
enslaving the negro population of that State was sub-_
witted to the people. The'Baltimore American thus
notices the result: "In all the counties in Maryland
from which we have received returns in which the
act forthe enslavement of free oegroes was submitted
to the people, the voters hide emphatically - and sig
nally denounced that unjust and 'unchristian law.
The question has been met and decided without any
reference to party polities; and the law is.defeated by
majorities amounting almost to unanimity. There-
suit is greatly creditable to the counties in which the
vote was taken,--and honorable to the State at
large."

American Board,—The undersigned, the Dis
trict Secretary of the Board for Philadelphia, having
now charge also of the Cincinnati District. which will
require his absence for long seasons from the office at
Philadelphia, requests,- that friends of the Board in this
District, having funds to transmit, will send them im

THE ECONOXY OF HERLTII,—This busy nation of Ame
ricans have 12,000,000 working people, whose services
may be estimated at $2 a day, and their annual kiss by
sickness at an average of ten days each in the year.
This gives a total loss'of $240,000,000, a' sum three times
as large as the whole cost of the' General Government,
including the Army, Navy, Post Offices, Legislators,
Foreign Ministers and alt. The amount weighs over
six hundred tons in pure gold. .
A.large proportion Of this costly suffering. might be
averted by attention to diet, cleanliness, and above all,
by the proper use of the right remedy in season. When
a 25 cent. box of Ayer's Pills will avert aft attack of ill
ness which it would take several days to recover from,
or a dollar .bottle of Ayer's §arsaparilla, will expel a
lurking disorder that would bring the'dufferer to his back
for weeks or months; does it take any figures to show
the good economy of the investment? Wheri Fever and
Agne is rankling in your veins, and shaking your life
out of you, is 'it worth the dollar it costs for his AGUE
CURE'to have the villanous disorder expelled, which it
does surely and quickly,,? When you have taken a told
is it prudent - to wait until it has settled on the Jungs,
When days or weeks or Months must be spent in trying
to cure it, even if it can be cured at all, or is it cheaper
to take Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, costing a few shillings,
and remove the trouble-before it is serious? It takes no
wisdom to 'decide.
Any chrisilan family who wish to perform
an act of true charity, and are willing to adopt a little
child of a poor girl, viho wishes to lead a better life,
and is willing to part with him on condition he be well
clothed and ethicated—can hear of such a one by writing,
address S. W., - Box 1448, Philadelphia P. 0.
The child is eleven months old, and to all appearance
healthful:. ' ' '

will calk on you. It is thought best that the home of the
