A Popular Minister.--A correspondent of the
Lutheran Observer thus speaks of the Rev. Dr.
Wadsworth, late pastor of the Arch street Presby
terian church, of this city, who has accepted a call
fiom Carley (*wish, San;Francisco.
"We doubt, whether any minister hatreviz-eit—
joyed the love of a people to a greater degree, than
has Dr. Wadsworth that of the congregation from
whom he is soon to separate. Irrespective of a
munificent salary, they a few years ago, presented
him with the misnumbered title deeds to a resi
dence on Arch street, worth not far from twenty
thousand dollars ; at 'another time a' five hundred
dollar piano, and next with a carved sater-box,
containing seven hundred and Afty d'orlesilr in half
eagles i His salary in Francisco is to be seven
thousand dollars, a house free of rent, and expenses
thither all defrayed It does not often fall to the
lot of a minister of the Gospel to share so largely in
the carnal things of his parishioners."

connection with the Reformed Presbyterian. Church
(0. S.) has resigned hie charge and united with the

A. New Xission. iohool:—The Reformed Pres
byterian Church, Chicago, Rev. Robert Patterson

Teaching the " Preedmen."—A colportenr of
the American Tract Society, New York, thus
describes his experience in imparting instruction to
some of the freed men in - Washington : .
Last Friday r called en' Commodore. Dahigren,
who is in command of the Navy Yard, with a letter
from Rev, Dr, John 0: Smith, (whose hospitality I
have enjoyed since reaching the city,) requesting 'a
pass to the Navy Yard, to teach and do good to the
contrabands.' He gave me and my work the most
cordial welcome, and referred me to Lient. Parker,
who would aid me in Carrying out my wishes. He
kindly offered to have the ! chapel lighted, and all the
contrabands notified to meet me at 7i, P. M. I
visited the women lit their.,rooms, and they
,ex-
Pressed a strong desire-to meetineand learn to read.
The men I was not able to see: At the appointed
hour I found the contrabands assembled ,in the
chapel, and Captain Morris with - them, who re
mained and witnessed with
,great interest my ser
vice with them to the close. I phased before them
` Lesson 1 ' of the tablet accompanying the ' Bible
Reader,' which is as follows.:
God earth dreated
beginning and the God
heaven in the beginning
created heaven.
" I than asked them if they would know the pic
ture of a horse, dog or eat if they should see it, and
they said yes, I then told diem thesowerb printed
words, the words that they were, tisiag evetY day.
I then pointed out the word 'Clod,' and they re

peated it after me several times. I then pointed
out ' earth,' ' created,' ' and'`ete., and asked them
if they looked like `God.' They at once said no.
I then pointed.out the other word ' God,' and asked
them what that was. ' They all said ' God.' I then
said,.' are you sure? Look carefully.' They said,
•It looks exactly like it.' - I said, ' Yes, that is the
same ; it is the name of the God that made you,
and you will always know it hereafter, as surely
as you would know the niettire of a horse or cow.'
" In this manner I proceeded with each word in
the lesson, until they could name it as soon as I
placed my pointer on it. The following line com
pletes., the first lesson : 'ln the - beginning God
oreatecl, the heaven and the earth.' I pointed out
each word' in order, commencing with the last, , and
went over it a few times in this way. I then said,
' This is the first verse in the Bible,. and you can
read it.' I then pointed out each word in order,
,and they read, 'ln the beginning God created the
heaven and-the. earth.' It would be difficult to say
which was most excited and delighted, teachers or
scholars. The ; whole , time occupied upon the lesson
was little, if any, over half an hour."
Books for, the Soldiers.—At the second annual
~
meeting of 'the Western Agency - of the Boston
Tract Society,!•held lately in Chicago, it was stated
that the receipts for the year were $6290 93 : ex
penditures, $5950 57, - Earnest and interesting
addresseg were made by Rev. Robert 'Patterson,
Rev. W. W. Patton, followed Sy several clerical and
lay members of the various ehttrehes. The agency
has been largely operating in the army. Its report
gave full details of the work there, and embraced- a
large number of letters of thrilling interest, from
chaplains and others in the army, who had been
furnished with publications for gratuitous- distribu
tion among the soldiers.
Editor
The admirable series of soldiers' books, tracts and
periodicals prepared by the American Tract SoCiety,
Boston, furnished the A.gency- with the material
needed for its work; and that society which - has dis
tributed nearly twenty million pages in the army, at
the East and South, generously duplicated for the
Western army the amount contributed to the Agency
for this work. As a result, over two million pages
of reading matter have been distributed in our
Western army by the agency. These have gone
into nearly one hundred regiment's from Michigan,
Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, lowa, MinnOota, Mis
souri, Kansas, Nebr'a'ska and Kentucky'; also into
the hospitals at. Chicago, Cairo,_ Springfield, St.
Louis, Mound City, Paducah, Jefferson City and
Ironton, and among the rebel prisoners at Canip
Douglas and Spring-add.
The Secretary has visited many of the camps and
personally distributed these publications, which have
always been received with eagerness. He has
had the cordial co-operation of chaplains and.pious
Men in the several regiments, and been furnished
with abundant testimony to the, usefulness of this
work, in the reformation of the vicious, the Con
version of the impenitent, and the edification and
comfort of cluistians.
.I,wish that tPrayer was Written."—Oile
of our 'visitors in the hospital_of the rebel prisoners
at Chicago, found A man very sick and very much
afraid that lie was about to die, who seemed con
scious of an utter lack of preparation: He'wt' a
stranger to the Bible, and yet felt the need of its
comforting power. When urged by our Christian
visitor to pray for pardon and peace, he said he
Could not pray, he never did. The visitor then, in
order to lead his.mind along - into .the light of Godies
word, repeated to him a part of the .51st Psalm.
When he paused, the sick min exclaimed, " 0, I
wish that prayer was written I" As it is one of the
most beautiful and appropriate prayera ever uttered
by a sinner, we insert it as follows :
" Have mercy upon me, 0 Glad, accord* i
lening,...kindnesal_eccerding unto the multitude of
thy tender mercies, blot out "my transgressions.
Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity and cleanse
me from my sin. For I acknowledge my trans
gressions : and my sin is ever before me. Against
thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil
in thy;sight: that thou mightest be justified when
thou speakest„, and be clear when thou judgest.
Behold I was shapen in iniquity ; and in sin did
my mother conceive me- Behold thou desirest
truth in the inward parts : and in the hidden part
thou shalt make me to know wisdom. Purge', me
with hyssop, and I shall be clean wash me, 'and
I shall be whiter than snow. Make me to hear
joy and gladness ; that the bones which thou hut
broken may rejoice., Hide thy face from my sins,
and blot out all mine iniquities. Create in me a.
cleait 11,04 W, ,o-9 : 0, and renew a, right spirit within
me. Cast me not away from thy , presence, and
take not thy Holy spirit from me. Restore unto
me the joy of thy salvatian, and uphold me with
thy free Spirit. Then will I teach transgressors,
thy ways, and sinners shall be converted unto thee.'
Deliver me from blood-guiltiness, 0 God, thou God
of my salvation, and my tongue shall sing aloud of
thy righteousness. 0 Lord, open thou my lips,
and my mouth shell show foi.tir thy praise. For
thou desirest not sacrifice, else would I give, it ; thou
delightest not in burnt-offering. The sacrifices of
God are a - broken spirit ; a broken and a'contrite
heart, 0 Ged, thou wilt not despise."—Ronte rfr

D. Brown, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, in
a letter of January last, front Bengal, India, thus
speaks of the college at that place, under - the super
intendence of the Rev, Dr. Duff:
"On Saturday lase, we visited Dr. DufFs Col

showed us over the entire institution, in which there
are nearly one thousand stUdeuts, frail' children up
to manhood, :studying both - their own language and
the English: TM higher, &Lags also take a tho
rough claOcal- course:. Some of the,young gentle
men are not only fine scholars, - but they are sincere
Christians, orwhom we expect much influence in
the cause 'of God. To hear those heathen children
talk about Christ, made us forget the endearments
of home, and rejoice that we were in India. From
the top'of the building we looked down on the burn
ing Ghat,, in which the natives bury_ their dead.
Blue Smoke was Curling up over the top of the Ghat
from the funeral pile of some poor heathen.

The Recent Great Engagement at Pittsburg
Landing very naturally continues to absorb the
attention of the country. It was fought April 6th
and 7th, and the report of Gen. Grant, the General
in command, dated April 9th, did not make its
appearance : until the 16th. He, sets dovrn our loss
in killed at 1500, and 3500 wounded. The enemies
loss in killed, and left on the field, he represents as
greater than our own. He says the enemy suffered
terribly in the retreat from demoralization and= de
sertion. A newspaper authority says 2500 of our
men besides, are missing. About 1000 unwounded
Rebel prisoners were taken, and; about 1200
wounded. 2200 Rebels had been buried.
Our troops retools an ,Monday,, all- , the batteries
lost on Sunday,`' and captured twelve Pieces frem the
Rebels.'
The opening:of the battle on Sunday was a con i !
plete and disastrous surprise to our. troops, who 'do_
,
not seem to bave been in any proper military
manner upon their guard. The coMmencement of
the action is thus described by the' correspondent.of
the Cincinnati,Gazette
"Almost at dawn, Sherman's pickets were driven
in, a very little later Prentiss's were ; and the
enemy were into the camps almost as. soon as were
the pickets thernselvei.
."Here began scenes which, let us, hope, wilfhaVe
no parallel in our remaining annals of the war.
Many, particularly ampng our officers, were not yet
out of bed. Others were dressing, others : washnlg,
others Cooking', a feW eating'their breakfasts. 'Many
guns were - unloaded, accoutrements lying pell-tiell,
ammunition was ill-supplied—in short, the camps
were completely surprised—disgracefully, might be
added, unless some one can hereafter give some yet
undiscovered reason to the contrary—and were taken
at almost every possible disadvantage.
"The first *lltLeries from the pickets rushing in,
and the few scattering < shots ; that preceded their
arrival, aroused the regiments to a sense of their
peril,
.an instant aftetwards, rattling volleys of
musketry poured through the tents, while before
there.was time for thought of preparation, there
came rushing through the woods, with lines of battle
sweepinethe - '*hole *fronts Oflb.ii Divisidn>•-cattips
and bending dolmort either, flank, the fine, dashing;
compact columns of the enemy.
" Into thejnit-aroused camps thronged - the rebel
regiments, firing sharp volleys as they, came, - and
springing forward upon our laggards with the bayo
net, for while their; artillery, already in position,
was tossing shells to the further side of the encamp
ments, scores, were shot down as they were running,
without weapons, hatless, coatless, toward the river.
The searching bullets found other poor Unfortunates
in their teak and'-there,, all unheeding now, they
still slumbered, Nyhile the unseen foe rushed on.
Others,fell as, they were disentangling themselves
from the flaps ;that ,formed the doors to their tents ;
others as, they were buckling on their accoutre
ments; others'as they werevainly trying to impress
on the cruelly-exultant enemy 'their readiness to
surrender. *
"Officers were bayoneted in their beds, and left
for dead,,,Who, through the whole two days' fearful
struggle; lay there gasping in - their agony,_,and on
Monday evening, were found in their gore, inside
their tents, and still able to.
ulg... , arei-e.ttre-ii-nrftd-Ilisasters that opmled - the
rebel onset on the lines of Buoldand's brigade, in
Sherman's divisiOn. Similar, though perhaps less
terrible in some' of the details, was the fate of
Prentiss's entire-front."
Thus thrown into disorder, 'pressed by superior
numbers, having no concerted Plan of action, and
being coMposed, in some instances of troops that
never before been under fire, we do not wonder
that the divisions on our left and centre soon gave
way. it- appears too that a column of the rebel
army took
of
road 'from Corinth, and came
upon 6ne these advance divisions—Gen. Sher
man's—froni quite a different direction in the midst
of the fight, , thus adding to, the confusion and •dis
may. Gen. Prentiss, with three regiments, was
.completely surrounded by three times their number
and laid down their arms. -
By ten o'cleek Sunday niorning, these three ad
vance divisions were entirely routed, and.their camps
occupied by the enemy. Two divisions—those of
Hurlbut and Wallace—remained between the enemy
rand the landing. The int:ter division was _that of
General Smith, then sick, and his - command' had
devolved for the time on General W. H. L. Wallace.
These force's, with such, of the routed divisions as
could be raßiedi now resisted the victorious enemy
with cool and deliberate bravery.
It was fortunate for us, Says the correspondent,
that the accidental circumstance that Prentiss's per-'
.tion of our line had been completely broken sooner
than anY-of the rest, had caused the enemy's "onset
to veer chiefly to our left. There we were tolerably
safe; and at worst, if the rebels , drove . us to the
river on the left, flank, the gun-boats could come
into play. Our weakest point was the right, and to
turning this the rebels do not seem to have paid so
much attention on Sunday.
The rebel onslaught sin these divisions was furious.
Charge after charge was repelled, and our froops at
times even gained a portion of their -lost ground.
From ten o'clock to four, they successfully repulsed
the enemy, and then-retired in good order under
cover of >the gunboats; In this closing struggle,
General Wallace - received a wound, believed to be
mortal. All our camps # except , those of his-clivinion
were eepupied by the enemy. " Our forces were now
crow.ded in a seini-circle within, half a mile of the
landing. The firing had ceased. . At this juncture
the advance of Buell's army begauto be seem on:the
opposite` . side of the river. The enemy renewed
the attack, expecting to complete their work, but
twenty-tie tier:4 field:and. Siege nffillery, with
the enormous metal of the gunboats, which now for
the first time could be brought to bear, held diem
at bay duringthe waning hours of that memorable
Sabbath evening. _ The correspondent thus - suns
up the day's losses We have lost nearly all our
camps and camp ettuipage. " We have lost nearly
half our field artillery. We have lost a division
General anittwo or three regiments of our soldiers
as prisoneri.' YVAtivelost—lini dreadfully we are
afraid to think—in killed and wounded. .The-hos
pitals are fall to overflowing. A long ridge bl;'.nf is
set apart for surgical uses.. It is covered with the
maimed, the dead and dying. And..our men are
discouraged by prolonged defeat. Nothing but the
m ost energetic exertion on the part of the officers
prevents them from becoming demoralized. Regi
ments have lost their favorite field officers, compa
nies-the captains whom they hafealways lookedlo,
with that implicit faith the soldier learnsy to 'lead
them to battle.
" By nine o'clock all was hushed near the landing.
The host of combatants that three hours before had
been deep in the work of human destruction, had
all sunk silently to the earth, ' the weary to sleep,
the wounded to die.' The stars looked 'out upon
the scene, and all breathed the natural calm and
. quiet of a Sabbath evening. * * *
" Haifa mile off lay a victorious enemy, command
ed by the most dashing of their Generals, and one
scarcely dared to ask himself the question, ghat
to-morrow? ' We were defeated, our dead and dy

With three 'sions of fresh troops under Buell,
including the i''_ ands of Generals Nelson, Crit
tenden, MeCo and Lew Wallace, the army as
immediately reo ganized, It was . foUnd that the
shells sent by t gunboats during the night, had
