The Closing Scenes 'of the Triennial o:inven
tion were curious and exciting. An attempt was
made by Judge Chambers to nullify the quali‘ed
utterance of the body, by protest which' in someway
was regarded as a piece of strategy. The report of
the Independent says:
" He read his paper in 'a low tone of voice, so that
some one would call for the Secretary to repeat it.
This was done. Then a resolution was surreptitious
ly put upon the Secretary's desk _ ; ; others had their
protests ready, and " everything looked lovely,"
until the Hon. Luther Bradish pointed out the un
parliamentary course of the gentleman from Mary
land, and Dr. Memo exposed the stratagem, The
protest and resolution were crushed under an almost
unanimous vote of opposition."
We did not know that a protest was regarded as
unparlimentery in any deliberative- body, provided
it was couched in respeetii4l language, and wethere.
fore do not understand the , " strategy " of it or the
necessity for " crushing it" out. The Tote by di
,eeses was, for Mr. Winthrop's tesolutions : clerical
l; lay 11 ; againat, clerical 7, lay 4. The Pastoral
letter of the Bishops is an excellent and manly doe
umeet, worthy of sulth staunch loyalists aS Bishops
Mcllvaine Whittingbern i and Lee.. It speaks with
out reserve of -the " stupendous rebellion ;against
the organic law and the constitutional government . of
the country, for the dismemberment of our national .
Union, under which, confessedly, all parts of Wieland
have been signally prospered'and blessed. A rebel
lion which is already too' well known to , you, Breth
ren, in the vast armies that it has compelled our
Government to maintain, and in the fearful expense
of life and treasure, of suffering and sorrow, which
it had cost on both sides, to need any further de
scription here. We are deeply grieved to think
how many of our brethren, clergy and laity, of the
regions over which that' dark tide has spread, have
been carried away by its flood. Not only yielding
to it, so as to place r thentaelves, safer as in them lay,
in severance of our ecciekdastioal union, which has so
long and so happily ioined us tegether in one com
munion and fellowship ; ;INA to a sad extent, sympa
thizing with the, movement, and the giving their
active co-operation."
Referring to Bishop Polk„ they say;
"When the ordained ministers of titegospel of
Christ, whose mission is so emphatically one , of
peace and goodwill, of tenderness and conitilation,
do so depart from their saered . ealling as to' take the
sword, and engage in the fierce and bloody conflicts
of war—when in so doing they are fighting sob*
the authorities which, as the powers that be, the
Scriptures declare are ordained of God, sq that in
resisting them they are resisting the ordinance of
God—when especially one wines out from the
sited spiritual duties of an overseer of the flock of
Christ, to exercise high cowhand in such'awful
work, we cannot—as onrseivei overseers of the same
flock—consistently with duty to his Church, minis
try and people, m, refrain from placing on , such exam.
ples our strong aenderaeatiOn. Weremember those
words of our blessed Lord—uttered among his last
words—and for the special, admonition of his minis
ters—' they that take the sword shall perish with
the sword.' "
The address' continued by alluding to the mighty
force arrayed against the country, to effect itadis
memberment, the'irmles ,in the field, the , perils of
battles, the military baspitat,'and all 'the sad con
comitants of war, and: the z duty of the Church in
such a momentous crisis, which was, to proollum, in
the words of Scripture, that the powers that be are
ordained of God, and that whosoever resisted them

- Convert of . High: Standin.—A convert is thus
spoken of by the Baptist Missionaries <of Delhi:
He is a nephew of the ea-King of Delhi, and the
only remaining member of the great house of Ti
mm= in: Delh`, who can lay claim ;to pure royal
blood, His name is Mirza Feroze, Shah. •He is a
man of studious habits, and has for years been en
gaged in comparing the Koran with the Bible. He
is by no:means a novice in the 'truth. He used to
sit for hours together at the feet of Mr. Thempson,
and was more than once threatened with his uncle's
royal displeasure for introducing Christian fopies
into his conversation in*the Court of Delhi. When
asked by Mr. Evans if at that - time he really believ
ed Christ, he said, "j: did. fully believe that
Christ was the Saviour, butt did not thee we nisi
own need of him; nor could lat that time be per
viaded to make an open prefes,sion of. Christ, and
forfeit 500 rupees a month, alloWed.,me by the
King." He 'has' Written a tract on the Divinity of
Christ, and endured ouch persecution from the

This mission, 'under the care of the Church Mis
sionary Society„ and one of the most flourishing of
any age or' country, is the Nit; as. we might have
expected`of thintighly evangelical teaching and ef
fort. Says Rev. A. ,Dibb, Superintending ,Mission
ary of one of the districts, after referring to the
Aleans used (" all the admirable disciplin& of our
Church, its liturgy, rites, and ceremonies, have
been conducted by duly-constituted bishops, priests,
and deacons ") goes on to say :
" Any one who will take the trouble to look
through the reports of the Tinnevelly Church mis
sionaries for the last twenty years, may see that, the
Christianity they have sought to propagate has been,
not general, but distinctive ; not formal, but doctri
nal ; not corrupt Christianity, but Protestant. The
gospel they hive labored to preach has been the
gospel of Christ, and not another gaspel. has
been a pure'gospel, without addition;; .afree gospel,
without .restriction; and a, full.gospel, without re=;
serve. It has been that gospel which assumes man
to be what he' most certainly is, a poor, fidlen,
ruined creature, whose understanding• is darkened,
whose will is depraved, and whose affeetiorts.aro

tells of the SaviOur's blood that it cleai!seth frOm
all sin ; ' the. Redeemer's righteousness, "that it
is available, in all :its spotless purity, for any poor
creature Who,feels his need of it, on the instant of
his believing in Jesus."

may expect to see followed by such glmious and

The. Pro-Slattery Statesmen of England (that

The Removal o Gen al Buell ".h.'oirf'the army
now in 'Kentucky, and th - Ppointment in his stead
of General Rosecrans, . dekmined upon Oct. 24th,
Will be hailed with lively slaiikfaction throughout the
North. The manner in wilt& the can:Taiga in Ken
tucky has been managed during the past six months
has been patent to the American people, and the
,only wonder was, that the charge was not effected
long ago. Considering all the facts in - the case, this
may be taken as an official eonderimation of the
plans and management of the campaign in Kentucky
under 'Don Carlos Buell. That campaign was man
aged in such a disgraceful Manner, that Bragg, with
the whole of his army, and fifteen hundred.heavily
leaded wagons. and a large (identity of cattle, made
his escape, with all his plUndert, and without being
attacked but once, and then by a general, contrary
to the orders of General 8ue11..,: The rebel general
with an audacity scarcely entailed entered the State,
traversed its richest partsi gathered all the provi
sions, forage, live stock, etc., he could lay his hands
on, inaugurated a, bogus government at Frankfort,
and when the Federal arniy marched, against him,
packed up his plunder, and commenced to march
backward.
No better selection for a successor to' Gen. Buell can
be found than Gen. Boseciftns. He is one, of our
ablest generals and most popular men. His cam
paign in Western Virginia p and latterly'in the West,
will form one of the brightest pages in the history of
this war, and place their hero as one of our-greatest
military officers. Gen. Roseerans is quick hi design
and' rapid in execution, and when his blows fall
upon rebels they' are of the hardest . kind.—The

The Gold Pen remains unchanged by years of con

corrosion and wear; therefore, perfect uniformity of
Writing is obtained only by the use' of the Gold Pen.
The Gold Pen is always ready and reliable, while
the Steel Pen must be often condemned and a new
one selected; therefore, in the use of the Gold Pen
there is great saving of time. k
Gold is capable of leceiving any degree of elasti

A New Work on Practical Religion.
2ESTHETiC PIETY.
BY REV, IVM. BACON.
The character of the work can best be seen from
the following .
RECOMMENDATIONS:
From Rev. ALBERT BARNES, pastor of the First
Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia.
"I have read with as much care and attention as
I could bestow onit, a work by the Rev. William Ba
con, entitled a /Esthetic Piety or the beauty andlove
liness of the Christian Religion." The design of this
work, as stated, by the author pp. 23, 24,) is to show
1. That the Christian' Religion is essentially beau
tiful and lovely. -
2. That Christians should strive as much as possi
ble to attain and to exhibit'all the excellences of this
religion.
3. That sinners as well as saints should candidly
examine and correctly estimate the ditties and graces
of Christianity, - and thence be led to adqpt p.nd prac
tice them in order to secure all the happiness.to which
they will lead."
No one can doubt the importance of the subject
thus discussed. And in my judgment the author has
discussed them, in such a way as to be eminently uses
fal to all those who will read his work. The piety of
the church would be of a higher order, andfthe hap
piness of Christians would be much greater, if they
would follow the counsels addressed to them in this
book; and it would be for the eternal welfare of those
who are notnow Christians, if they would, as the author
suggests, so examine Christianity; so lay aside all pre
judice; so yield themselves to the conviction of truth,
as to embrace the Christian system and practice it in
their lives. I think that the book is adapted to elevate
the faith, and. increase the piety of the Church, and
that its tendency would be to convince all persons
that the Christian religion is "worthy of all accepts
tiqn," and is the richest gift which God has confer
refl on mankind.--I have known the Rev. Mr. Bacon
for many years, and in such circumstances as to
show ' what manner of spirit he is of,' and I have the
utmost confidence in his piety, his seal,, and his de- .
sire to do good to the world, and,cominend this work
—the fruit of • the reflections of .many years, ,and the
result of a desire to do good when he is unable pub
licly to preach the Gospel, to all with whom my
name may serve as a sufficient commendation of the
work to' induce them to examine it for themselves."
Prom Rev. MARK Homxs, D. D. L. L. D., Pre
sident of William's College, and or the A. .B: C. F.
" Your work on /Esthetic Piety" I have no he
sitation in commending for its judicious design, its
clear discrimination of the elements of Christian
character, its forcible commendation of them, and
its full reference to `tho.se , passages of Scripture by
which they are sustained.' MARK HOPKINS.
Fred the Professors of the Auburn Theological
Seminary.
" I have read your work on Esthetic, Piety with
entire approbation and unmingled gratification. It
is full of sound common sense, suggestive thought and
scriptural truth. It cannot fail to profit those who
will attentive'y read it. lam glad that "while you are
disabled from all labor abroad, you are able to divert
your own mind, alleviate the pains of your long con
finement, and render yourself widely and permanent
ly useful by producing such works."
EDWIN Hem..
"I have read your last volume entitled " /Esthetic
Piety" with much satisfaction. The cultivation of
this -department of Christain character demands at
tention. Your book has my, cordial approbation, as
it furnishes desirable help to the many who are in
need of a Manual on this subject. I rejoice that dur
ing your long confinement you are able to use your
pen for the good of the Church." J. B. CONDIT.
haVe read with interest'and profit the work on
"/Esthetic Piety" by Rev. Wm:um BACON.
"The very discriminatingand full analysis of the chris
tian character it contains, classes it as an aid to self
examination with the best extant works on experi
mental religion; and the exhibition of the reasons
why piety Is too often presented in an unattractive
form is full of admonition to all Christians. As-a
work, not forpopular reading, but for closet contem
plation, I wish it might be put into the hands of
every church member." - Semi,. M. HOPKINS.
"I have, yet been able- Only to' glance at it"--
/Esthetic Piety.' But I have read enough to disco
ver, that Ais an excellent work of its kind, skilfully
adapted to recommend our holy religion even as a mat
ter of taste; to show the groundlessness of the impres
sion, (whence so much aversion to Christianity,) that
it is " unsightly and forbidding." At the same time
I-am glsid to notice, that you do not lose sight of
those higher considerations, which would, make it an
imperative duty, and the true interest Of sinners to
embrace the Gospel, even though it should be offen
sive to the nice taste of the cultivated and refined."
