Times, in regard to the recent anniver sary of this flourishing enterprise, which took place on the 3d Sabbath of May, we _make the following extracts: This mission, sustained by the Calvary. Presbyte rian Church, may be numbered among the most suc cessful of the missionary enterprises of the city of Philadelphia. The report is an interesting document, and gives a full history of this most successful mission enter prise. Four years ago, twenty-two children were gathered together in a small upper room in a neg lected neighborhood, es the practical expression of warm Christian sympathy for neglected ohildten, on the part of a flourishing church. The enterprise was encouraged and nobly seconded, until near three hundred and twenty scholars, with thirty teachers, regularly meet in a handsome building to receive in struction from the word of God. The Lord has pros pered the enterprise.. About thirty-five from the Sabbath School have been happily converted during the four year. 'rho scholars have been deeply interested in foreign missions during the past year, and they have pledged fifty dollars annually to the support of the mission at Kolapoor, in Western India, which the American Board abandoned some time since. A number of other Sabbath schools in the city are also pledged to sustain this mission. A temperance (moiety has been formed by the Ta bor school, and most of the pupils have enrolled themselves as members and taken the pledge of to tal abstinence. In connexion with the Mission a flourishing 'paro chial day school has been established, and a large number of the pupils enjoy its advantages. Church privileges have also been added with the growth of the school, and a flourishing congregation has .grown up in a previously wicked neighborhood. During the period of this mission organization, one hundred and ninety, have connected themselves with this church. Rev. C. N. Mattoon, D. D.—The many friends of the late President tif - rattan' Goliege Will - be glad tsplearn that he is yet alive, notwithstanding the statement of a Western paper to the contrary. He was regularly discharging his duties as pastor of the Presbyterian church, Rockford, Illinois, at last ad vises. Rev. James Knox, of Hillsdale, Michigan, has been constrained to ask a release from his people for a few months on Recount of impaired health. We are pleased to know that his health is improving. Rev, H. H. Kellogg has removed from Clinton, New York, to Washington, Tazewell county, 111. Mr. Kellogg takes charge of the flourishing boarding school located in this town, and will also regularly supply the pulpit of the Presbyterian church. Rev. Medad Pomeroy has, we regret to learn, been obliged to resign his pastoral charge at Casco, New York, owing to his continued ill health. His punt office address wi)l. be, for the present, Auburn, New York. Rev. John Matitchoon was installed over the church in Ruggles, Ohio, on the 22d ultimo, by the Presbytery of Elyria. A little over a year since, Presbytery was called to perform a like duty for this people. They then ordained and installed Rev. Jas. Wilson. But God, who sees not as man sees, saw fit to take this young brother home to his rest, after a few months of useful labor.—Christian Herald. Ordination of a Volunteer Army Chaplain.— Dr, Parker's church, corner of 22d street, New York, was the scene of a series of interesting exercises on Wednesday evening, the sth, consequent upon the ordination of Rev. George E. Post, M. D., who goes out as chaplain of the Fifteenth Volunteerßegiment (sappers and miners.) Rev. Joel Parker delivered the ordination sermon, taking his text from 2d Co rinthians, chap. ii. 14, 15 14. Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savor of his knowledge by us in every place. 15. For we are unto God a sweet savor of 'oi:whit; in them that are saved, and in them that perish. After examination of the candidate by the Mode rator, Rev. Mr. Hovey made the ordination prayer, and the charge was delivered most impressively by Rev. Dr. Adams. He believe& the present war was but carrying out the plans of Divine Providence even to the saving of the souls of those engaged in it. After an address by the Rev. Mr. Post, the meet ing was dismissed. I The Chaplain of the 18th Regiment, Rev. Henry Fowler, now pastor of the Second Church in Auburn, received, on Saturday afternoon, an official announcement of his appointment as Chaplain of the Cayuga Regiment, Mr. F. is a gentleman, a Chris tian and, as many occasions have demonstrated, a brave and true man.—Cominercial. Rey, William Hanford, of the P.resbYtery of Portage, died at his residence in Tailmadge, Ohio, on the 31st ultimo, in the seventy-fourth year of his age. Professor Henry Hadley, of Union Seminary, New York, was elected professor of sacred literature in the Lind Theological Seminary at Lake West, near Chicago.

Bishop Janes and Young Touchers. The Christian lutelligencer thus refers to the .sermon of Bishop. Janes before the PhiladelpkialConference at its last session: "He took occaston4o dwelLon the prevailing mania to have none but.sroung men in the pulpit, showing its disastrous influence upon the in terests of religion. He then went on to say, that if this matter 'should go on as it has forlke last few years, it will be but a very short period when the whole order of society will be reversed. In state and national legislatures:we will have laws requiring, not that no person shall be eligible to the position of Governor or President until he is thirty to tbirty-ftve years off, age. but that no one shall be eligible after that age.' Why, we shall have to ask the Divine Ruler to'ohange his holy word, and, instead of read ing, 'Wo to thee, 0 land, when thy king is a child,' read, Wo to thee 4hen thy king is a man.' Thinks to Bishop Janes for speaking a brave word, which every body of Christians in the, land needs to hear and regard." CONGREGATIONALIST. The Church of the Puritans-4s it Excluded? An ex parte council, called in behalf of the aggrieved standing minority of this church, having taken the following action, the ,Boston Recorder thinks the church is excommunicated. "'We, therefore, recommend to the churches of the Congregational order that, in such' way as shall be accordant with the principles of our platforms and usages, they, mithdraw from the Church of. the Puri tans, tbe fellowahip.Pf thlt churches, until it shall re cede from its present, position and give- evidence of a return to the spirit of Christ, and to the order of the Congregational chinches." ' GENERAL. Milton's Alleged Unitarianism:. -- A recent writer in the Atlantic Monthly, having claimed John Milton as a Unitarian, a correspondent of the Boston Recorder makes the following explanation in regard to Milton's book on "Christian' Doctrirte,"---upon which, alone, this opinion depends: - It must suffice to say that this "Christian 'Doc trine" is, proved to have ,been, a very early, work of Milton's. unsettled yearysup'pressed by himself as uftwortby of publication, and wholly.inadequate as a basis of the classification,afl its author among the Unitarians, That.the iltustriOna poetheld some pe culiar theological opinioni;;is undeniable..: Ile-;can hardiy be quoted as a consistent Ctilvinist=but that he was n Unitarian, or even an Arian,- no " tine' Will assert wilio has mastered the' avidenCiritOolved 'la a fair settlement of the date df the treatise on iihiclilhe controversy turns. musto - Mit. . , Revival in SOuthezi. 'American Board occupies "missionary"fields . `Coritiguoui to' Tin neyelly, the scene of recent great revivals, 'in Smith ern India. It will,be a matter of great joy to the friends of these snit:gen% and.of the cause of Chris tianity, to learn that the 8 erne 'Precious and decided evidences of the divine favor which were - seen' in Tinnevelly are, according to the most recent intelli gence, beginning to be Manifested'. `in the fields' of the American Board. The Tiruniungalum station is nearest to Tinnevelly—yet, as if to indicate the di vine origin of the *ork; it began at Mallankinarn, seventeen lOW from Tirumungalum. Mr. Herrick, under date of March Bth, writes as follows; It may be proper to remark first, that the Chris tians of M. are of a different easte from that to the revival hrNorth Tinnevelly, last year,lwris mostly confined: They had often beard of the'revival there, but, So far as I am' aware,bad not had any direct communication with' the 'Christians of that distriot. On the'evening of December 24th, one man invited another, towards whom he had indulged feelings of hardness, to come-to his house and pray. Thelin vitation was acceptedi and a reconciliation followed. A general meeting, was held at the same honse the next night,_ and others` 'became reconciled. On the evening of the 27th of Decernber, a series of. Meetings was cordinenced. The'meeting of the second evening was very full. Theliext evening, while they were Singing, after prayer and an address from the catechist, a sober mindedyoung man, eighteen or nineteen years of age, began — trireMpftf - isrunlieWriiidlo - dry out in distress on account of his sins; No one knew at first what to think of this, and some tried itistap him. It seemed to the catechist, at length, that from what he had 'heard ofthe work of the Holy Spirit, this young man might be under his influebee. After epeakinc for mime of his own sins, he. began to reprove with great severity a few members of the church, calling them by name and specifying the faults of which they had been guilty. He next addressed -the hea then present, urging them to repentance. From that time until no* the Holy Spirit has been evidently present there:doing his appropriate work. The catechist says that all divisions have been healed, and often, speaks , of his own work as now, very pleasant and very easy. . CHARACTER OF THE Woak.—Seven or eight women and about the same number of men, seem to have been brought under the special influence of the Spi rit, and, I trust, have been born again, Judging from 'what I have seen myself, and heard from the catechist, their exercises seem to have been entirely siMilar to those of persons in America, brought un der the influence of the Spirit in times of religious revival. Several have manifested great sorrow and concern for their salvation, confessing their sins with tears, praying for forgiveness, and requesting the prayers of others in their behalf. This, state of mind has generally been followed by peace, and an earnest desire for the salvation,of others. The mental exer cises off, a few have been such as to cause violent tremblings and cries of distress, and one or two were thought to lose their consciousness fora time. Far ther than this, there has been nothing to which the most scrupulous could take exception. The example thus afforded of the work of the Holy Spirit will also be of great importance. • Even the heathen, as the catechist says, are so much impressed that they do not dare to open their mouth in opriosi. tion. We cannot be too thankful for the commence ment of this work, nor too earnest in prayer that it may continue and extend, Mr. Taylor, a missionary in the - neighborhood, adds: It is particularlyr encouraging to learn bow tho rough it is, and , how it causes the fruits of righteous nem to spring forth. It shows that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. The reproach that Tamil Christians have not native energy, and the depressing feeling in the minde of missionaries that they can be expected to do but lit tle, except as they are overrun and directed by fo reigners, is stayed by the facts of this revival. Progress in other Parts of India.--The admis sions to the churches under the care of the Mahratta Mission, including Bombay and the interior stations, during the last four years, exceed those of the whole previous period of its existence, dating from the year 1813. The Madura Mission in South India is about twentylix years_ old. Under its culture there has been a larger ingathering of spirituel/fruit ; and the conversions of the last five years fall but a little. be-. low the number in, the first twenty years. The latest in tel Hance from Ceylon is :of a now, religious interest at several of the stations, and especially in the Fe male Boarding School at Oodooville, in the Battleotta "Training School," or Seminary, and in the English High School, at the same station, which is supported by the native Christian community with Government , aid. The testimony from the Missions on the conti nent is that truth is taking a stronger hold on the higher castes, from which a gratifying proportion of converts has been received. acs of tilt- struggit. A Bold Union Man.—S. W. Williams, a well known lawyer of Washington, and a native of Vir ginia, returned to that city, June 4th, from a visit to Riehmond, where be bad' been for a week. He went there from Washington on personal business matters, and'also to see his friends. He openly re-" gistered his name and place of, residence at his hotel. He was almost immediately after arrested by a de tachment of Virginia soldiers, led by a well-known gambler, fornierlY resident in Washington city. He was immediately taken to jail and placed in a cell where desperate criminals are usually confined, and which was so" arranged that it, was jnipoesible fur, him' to sit down. ``Hie Valise was .at the same time seized, as well as everything on, his person. He demanded to know of his captors on what charge he bad been arrested, and was prorriptly in formed that he was recognised as a Union man. He instantly acknowledged his love for the Union, and returned a most scathing rebuke to: the rebels, which unfortunately secured for him still greater punish- Merit. Ile remained all night in this cell, which Was of the most filthy character, being in a condi tion which it is not , necesisaiy to mention. In the morning he was plaeed in. another Wl,' lint 'wdi as - closely confined. „No communication was permitted 'him with' his ,friends, or *witiE the, authorities.: At the end of <thrre days the hitter wad;bronghtout of jail and conveyed' before' the Mayok's Court. :The af*.iti:riatil :Nv 'tolittiliiitti :J;-att ::,' 0 gioio,o4*, - milit.pt:,Ml,.- ~.. r''aonly evidence produced against ,him was that he Was a Union man and a resident of Washington. In reply to this, Mr Williams entered into the de tails of his private•business;and shoWed clearly that he was not there upon a hostile errand: The Mayor then presented 'a note found on hie'Perseit, from John Minor Bette, 'stating that having heard that Williams, was in the city, he desired c,visit from him at his, farm in the country. This was held to prove the rankest treason: The prisoner_eiTlained that he had known Mr: 'Botta many years, and. simply to make him friendly,Visit. reviewed his 'peurse, from' the time Ofleaving - Wathingten until.hie; axed, and concluded,with an emphatic, declaration of his sentiments.Ma the rebellion.

He •intended iamain'hiyal io the"old gevernment in spirit and suction as long as the semblance of .it re mained He sat, down weak and exhimited, expecting every'Moment to bash& or to' be sent back to jail. His friendi among the secessionists trembled for his fate, but begged-that he might be released and 'furnished With a pass, and allowed to'go - out of the state. After much deliberation he was released, and was allowed to see, his relatires, and to visit Mr Botts. He fonikl the latter engaged quietly:in agricultural pursuits, but worn out and broken down •with grief at the dreadful state of affairs around him. He found him still true at heart to iho old flag; though his safety , required' that- he should say' nothing; Ito That effect. When lie visited Richmond he;was subject to all kinds of insults, and therefore rarely left his rural retreat. • gramma or man REBELS.—In a speech which he heard Jefferson Davis make at a review of three re giments, Williams behig_prelient by permission of his relative, Colonel August, the' rebel, president' stated that there were inure:hansiity-eight thoneand troops under arms in the State, and that twenty-five thousand more were en :mute from other states. They have a very good idea of the number of-troops at Washing ton, but think they are the scum of society, and will not fight.
