_OMMISSIONERS TO THE
GENERAL ASSEMBLY.—Rev. Walter Freer, of Placer
ville, has been elected as Commissioner by the Pres
bytery of Sierra Nevada. Mr. Freer will leave with
his family on the steamer of April 11th, and will
be absent about six or seven months.
New entrant! ORGANIZED.—Last Sabbath a Pres-
byterian Church (N. S.) was duly organized in .
Brooklyn. The Church consists of twelve members.
The services were eenducted by Revs. BriekStriing
and Willey, the latter preaching the sermon. This
new and exceedingly promising church has been
gathered by the wise, faithful and godly labors of the
present acting pastor, Rev. G. Pierson. It is not '‘
quite a year since he commenced his labors in
Brooklyn, and in addition to this organization, he,
bee also succeeded in the erection of a fine church
building, which will be completed in a feer Weeks.--
Pacific, Feb. 21st.
A Practical Discourse.—The Rm . '. Mr. Wiswell,
on last Sabbath evening, preached—what we fear is
too much negldoted in city pulpits everywhere—a
practical discouree on, the;"evil influences and pop: lar sins of Wilmington." ,These were,classified under
four heads:-Ist, Lotteries, ld; Rum, 3d, Theatres,
and 4th, The publitreentimettt which encourages and:
supports them, Honorable• and upright men will
thank the reverend gentlethan for introducing these
matters in the pulpit; and if they would know fully
the character and power of these insidious vices, they
should attend the future lectures, by Mi. Wiswell on
the subject. He has announced a course of three or ,
four sermons, to be continued through the, several
coming Sabbath evenings until completed. All the
people should hear them.—Del. State Journal.
The Paithful Minieter.—Dled, at Wyoming,
Jones County, lowa, on the 18th instant, Rev. Geo.
E. Delevan, aged 56
.years. He was warmly attached
to the New School Presbyterian Church, and greatly
preferred to labor within its organization.
Some time ago he removed to Wyoming, a young
and promising village, where an infant , church of,
our order had just been organized. Here, and
in the surrounding region, was a new but inviting
Hold, and he entered upon its caltivation with
an untiring, unsparing energy, that brought him
to an untimely grave. He identified himself with
all the interests of the community about him, and
rapidly won the esteem and confidence ofall classes
and denominations. The little church grew and
prospered,. and he was hoping soon to see,o,thers of
our ecclesiastical polity organized in the neighboring,
hamlets, where he also preached.
A house of worship was greatly needed by his peo
ple, and through the liberality of a worn-hearted
Christian lady of Pittsburgh, and some aid from the
Church Erection Fund, joined to their own exertions,
they were enabled to commence, a year ago, a neat
and commodious structure. Unfoitunately, its walls
blew down, just as the roof was about to be laid, thus
delaying for several months its completion. Your
readers may remember an appeal for help, in these
circumstances, which the much-tried pastor put forth
at the time in your paper.
It was about this time that he was attacked by
sudden hemorrhage—the result of over exertion 'in
his many and varied labors. But a deep religious
interest was just now beginning to manifeat itself ia l
the village, and he watched from his sick bed, with
great solicitude, the progress of a work which he
could not guide. He wrote an occasional sermon
which was read to his people with happy effect, and
he had the privilege of knowing, before he died, that.
quite a number of those to whom he had preached,
were rejoicing in Christ, and would soon join them:
stelYes to the church he must leave.
The end of our brother was peace.— Cor. Eyeing.;
