Bevivals.—A correspondent of the Presbyterian
Banner says : " A work of grace, of unusual
power, has, for some weeks, been progressing in
the Presbyterian church at Monogahela City, Penn
nylvania, of which the S. E. Dunlap is the
pastor. The meetings commenced on the Day of
Prayer for Colleges. On the following Sabbath the
sacrament of the Lord's Supper was administered:
and as a deep interest seemed to pervade the church,
it was thought best to continue the meetings.
Since then, the work has gone on with increasing
interest, and still , continuq,s.The presence of
God's Spirit his been graciously manifestedin the
quickening of his people, and the conviction and
conversion of sinners. About a hundred persons
have been brought to see their need of a Saviour,
and to inquire the way to life;- and it is hoped that
some forty or fifty of this number have experienced
a change of heart, and have started upon the way
to heaven. One remarkable feature of this season
of refreshing is, that quite& number of those who
have been awakened, are men who are the heads of
families, and who heretofore have been men of in
temperate habits. Several who have been grossly im
moral have been brought humbly to plead for mercy
through the blood ofJesus."—The Presbyter** of
this city has also received information that a revi
val of religion has commenced in the First. Presby
terian Church, New Albany; Indiana,
,of which the
Bev. Dr. Safford is the pastor. Nearly thirty per
eons have been added to the church, and the inte
rest continues.—The church at. Monmouth, Ills.;
the charge of the Rev, R. C. Matthews, has also
been wonderfully blessed by the presence of the
noly Spirikand the hopeful conversion of over fifty
.aconts, The oteetings.continued for-several weeks;
and were characterized by great solemnity and deep
emotion.
Debt Paid,—The Kensington ,Presbyterian
Church, Philadelphia, under the pastoral care of
the Rev. Wiaiatu O. Johnstone, has recently paid
off a debt of nearly $4OOO, ,thus releasing the
church property from all debt. The church is also
increasing in numbers, twenty.one persons having
been received at the last communion by profession
of faith and several by certificate.

Baptist.—Our Foreign Illiisions.—The Mends
of Foreign Missions, says The airenkle will be
gratified to learn of the exceedingly encouraging
form', in' which the accounts of the' American
Baptist Missionary Union for the financial year,
have just closed, We learn that the donations
and legacies to the Society are about $15,000 in
advance of the previous year, and leave the Union
free from dtbt. By a special providential arrange
ment, the Missionary Union has been able to supply
the missionaries in China and Burmah, for some
months past, with funds, without paying the enor
mons rates of exchange, which under, ordinary cir
cumstances would have been a necessity.
The same paper says : i:a.d tidings have reached us
eonfirming the suspicions, many months old, that
Mrs. Mason, the wife of the venerable Dr. Francis
Mason, of the Baptist Burman Mission, has fallen
into partjal and perhaps permanent mental derange
ti
merit. • like full particulars have been forwarded
hy.the 'lll ''
curies to the Rooms at Boson, and
some very : indiscreet and injudicious publications on
the subject have appeared in some of our Baptist
papers. surely it should be enough when these
writers give abundant testimony to prove the dis
ordered mental powers of Mrs. Mason ; but to try
and convict her of heresy and ambitious designs,
after so clearly establishing her monomania, and
to find fault with her aged, husband because he
treats her "more in sorrow thaw in anger," is to us
evidence of poor sense or something worse.

Congregational.—Skk-Bed Resolves:-H. W.
B eeoher, in a sermon on the words, " Behold, I
stand at the door and knock," says; " In my not
short ministerial life I recollect abut one man who p
after making promises of 'fidelity in sickness, re
membered to keep them after he got well. I went
to see him, and he said, My sickness incapacitates
me from talking talon.; and something tells me
that it would be dishonorable and cowardly to seek
religionnow, just at the:end. of my life—if I am to
die; but.l prom& you that if I ever recover I mean
to attend to the subject of religion.' And probably
the first visit he made after his recovery Ins at my
house, and to me. He introduced the topic him
self; .by saying, , ' I have come to ask ho* I may
become a Christian?' And lie became a Christian
man, and I believe that he has led a consistent
Christian life ,u that hour tohis. I do not re
collect another case of this kind, though I recollect
scores of cases . of men Who made promises in skt
mitt, 'in afflietions and broke them when they were
released fromtrot:ble."----Professor Egbert C.
Smith, of`Bowdoin College now in Germany, has
been elected to the Professorship of Ecclesiastical
History in the Theological Seminary of Andover,
lately occupied'by Professor Shedd.7==With deep
sorrow says the Recorder we announce the death of
Rev. James Means, late of Auburndale. He died
last week, of typhoid fever, at Newbern, North
Carolina, where he had been acting as Superinten
dent of contrabands. He was a man of an excellent
spirit, and his loss will be much felt by a large cir
cle of friends and acquaintances.

diminution in interest or numerical results.
Editor
The Philadelphia Annual Conference having taken
high ground in regard to the examination of the
young men applying for admission on trial and for
"orders," an unusually large number were unable
to measure up to the required standard, and - were
therefore obliged to review the "course of study"
for the past year. This was a severe, but doubtless
a necessary and alutary measure. Like a bitter pill
it may work a radical and permanent cure. An ex
tenuating plea having been made for those who had
not been favored with early educational advantakes,
Dr. William Cooper, in reply, said that "the work
shop boys asked no, favors," but were ready,either
to stand the test or review their a studies.' l ---The
New York East Conference commenced its session
at Sands-Street Church, Brooklyn, N. Y., April
Ist. The Commercial Advertiser, in a notice of
Friday's proceedings, says : " The case of Rev. T.
A. Lovejoy was brought up and investigated. He,
had left his charge, East Granby, Conn., becantie
they refused to allow him to preach sermons on na
tional or political affairs, or in any way allude to
these subjects. He yindicated himself in a very
able manner after which Drs Griawdd_and.Hoyt,
arlproved of his conduct. Dr. ',Curry moved that a
subscription of $2OO be collected for Mr. Lovejoy,
which Rev. J. H. Hatfield seconded, and stated
that a Church which sought to bind their pastor in
this manner were semi-secesh. Dr. Ploy 'moved
that the Conference approve of Rev. T. A. Love
joy's action. The question was discussed by. Drs.
Curry, Hoyt, Hatfield and others, when the collec
tion was taken up, resulting in the sum of $233,50,
which was presented to Rev. T. A. Lovejoy."
Army.—The 39th Massachusettsltegimenthave
formed a society called the Christian 'Union, hav
ing its officers and regular meetings three times
a week. The platform of their limey is some
what broad, embracing all denominations, and all
of a good moral character. Last Sabbath the
Christians of the 14th New Hampshire united
with the 39th Massachusetts in the celebration
of the Lord's Supper,e chaplains, of . the two
regiments conducting the exercises. There were,
I should judge, about fifty or sixty communicants,
belonging to various denominations. The meet
ing was held in the Presbyterian church at Pooles
ville, and I think we all felt that it was good to
be . there, and though scarcely two of us belonged
to, the same church at home, we felt that we all
belonged to the church militant, and should at
some future time belong to the church trium
phant. It was a most precious season and one
long, to be remembered by the followers of Christ
throughout these regiments.—Cor. Recorder

—By intelligence of a recent date (Feb. 20th)
received from Spain, it appeals that the Govern
ment prosecutor, not content with demanding the
punishment of eleven years at the galleys, with
other accessory penalties for the alleged delin
quencies of Matamoros previous to his imprison
ment, has demanded also the formation of a new
cause against him for " apostaey " in consequence
of the confession of faith which he has on sev.
eral occasions made before the tribunals during
his trial. The punishment for "apostasy" is
perpetual banishment, but this is not to take
effect until, the expiration of his term of pun
ishment at the galleys. Thus, even if the tribu
nal (which.indeed, is not likely) were to refuse
to condemn Matamoros to the galleys, and wei e
to acquit'him, he mould be immediately arrested
again on the secerl. charge.

The Attack on Charleston Harbor has been
earnestly discussed during the week. The people
are but little, if at all, disappointed with the results,
since they have gained complete knowledge of the
facts. The stock board was somewhat excited, and
gold rose about 5 per cent., but it has not main
tained the position. The ability of the iron-clads
to stand an enormous amount of pounding with
little injury is triumphantly vindicated. Had the
obstructions in the,channel proved surmountable,
all the rebel guns in the harbor could not have kept
our fleet from mooring in the Charleston dock and
bombarding the city. On the other had, the num
berg cif guns that could be brought to bear'upon the
enemy was so few, that comparatively little impres
sion was made. • Vessels constructed like the New
Ironsides, if they could be made to steer satisfacto
rily, would undoubtedly be more effective. • The
following letter from Capt. Ericsson is interesting
in this connection :
"I feel called upon to state, for the information
of the country, that the imperfections of the Moni
tors, shown by Admiral Dupont's trial of their
strength at Charleston, are ; not of a serious character.
What has happened will be readily obviated for the
furtue. Everything connected with our new fighting
machines worked precisely as intended, not a single
change of plan being called for. The pilot-houses
proving of insufficient thickness was not an unfore
seen circumstance. The limited experience which
we have had in actual conflict indicated that eight
inches thickness would be sufficient, but it was by
no means assumed to be a settled point. Bence
such a construction was adopted that, without re..
moving the structure, or changing its interior ar
rtmgements, a number of additional plates might, be
attached to the , exterior, and its thickness increased
to ittiy extent.
arntritan g i ltalltetian and 4' tut,ote (6).taugeliot.
" So with regard to the turret ; it is constructed of
an interior skeleton-cylinder, composed of plates
firmly riveted together,
,to which any number of
plates may be bolted. It is by no means yet estab
lished that our turrets require increased thickness,
excepting possibly at the base. The public will
do well not to be alarmed by the remarks of inex
perienced observers, who are startled at seeing the
indentations produced by the enemy's projectiles.
We apply armor to keep out hostile shot, not to
prevent scar'S and indentations. So far we have fully
succeeded.
" It will be proper to observe that the supposed im
perfect steering, qualities are utterly groundless.
There is no class of vessels in the navy that obey
their helm so readily as the Monitors. • The reason
is self-evident. The large equipoise rudder em
ployed is acted 'upon by the powerful current from
the propeller with such force as, to change the
course of the vessel with the slightest motion of the
helm. In strong currents and in shallow water, as
in Charleston harbor, no vessel can be readily man
,
ceuvred.,
"Admiral Dupont's preliminary attack on Charles.
ton—the first practical test of iron-clads--must be
regarded as the most important event in naval his
tory. To this country the gallant assault on Sumter
by the . new and untried vessels, exposed to the ter
tibia flanking and raking ' fire of numerous other
forts, •is fraught with incalculable benefit. What
ever may be the ulterior: object of Government, the
'substantial advantage has, already bees secured of
_knowing "exactly what the irort:olads can endure,
and what remains to be done to render the new
system perfect. It was high time that a practical
test was iestituted, since we are building a more
nuarerorus iron-clad fleet than 'is possessed by all
Europe.
"The nation may thank the commanders of the
Monitors for the knowledge, gained through
their . gallantry. With less daring on their part,
the Navy Department would yet lack Some informa
tion necessary to direct the completion of the im
pregnable fleet now building. At the same, time,
the spirited attack on Sumter, and the havoc made
during half an hour's contest, warns the Confede
rate leaders that they must keep their numerous
batteries fully manned, and that they must not for'
a moment slacken their vigilance, with Dupont and
his Monitors' within half a day's sail
"The history of war may be searched in vain for
an instance of such costly preparations, kept up at
such vast expenditure, as Charleston now requires,
to ward off the blow from half a dozen small vessels,
manned, provisioned and coaled at less cost than an
ordinary first-class screw ship.
'Tours very respectfully,
"NEw YORK, April 14. J. ERICSSON:"
Siege of Vicksburg.—From news received last
week, chiefly through rebel sources, it appears that
our land forces were withdrawing entirely from
-Vickshurg. According to these advices, dated
April 10 and 11, fifty-three of our boats went up
the Cord Water River—the upper waters of the
Yazoo and Tallahatchie. It seems scarcely prob
able that we had so many boats in 'that narrow
stream,' brought in through Yazoo Pass, to attack
Fort Greenwood. If so, this report must refer to
the abandonment of the expedition and the return
of the forces. Thirty transports and twelve gun
boats are reported from the same source to have
gone up from Memphis to operate on the Cumber
land river. This would look like a concentration of
our force about Rosec,rans, and a transfer of the de
cisive,moments of the campaign to the land forces.
In the Southeast the rebels have shown a sud
den disposition to take, the aggresivein the opening
campaign. In North. Carolina they have taken ad
vantage of the withdrawal of large bodies of our
,troops to Port Royal to concentrate a superior force
against General Foster, who, with 1,200 troops, is
shut up in Washington, and at this writing his fate
is uncertain. Two- separate attempts of forces to
reach him have been frustrated lt `the presence of
hove forces of rebels. General Wise attacked our •
position before Williamsburg, and Suffolk is threat
ened by large force of the enemy. In each case
our troops have fallen back, abandoning their ad
vanced positions. The Suffolk bridge, over Nan
semond river has been blown up by our men.
. Rebel Finances.—The North American in a
leader of April 15, discusses with its usual ability
the condition of the rebel finances. It calls atten
tion to the tact that the rebels have followed our
track in their schemes for raising money, except in
the modification of the postal system. Then despite
its free trade clamor for scores of years past, they
began by a tariff on foreign imports, a small re
source during a blockade, and we mention it merely
to Shew how idle had been, all the theories of the
south on this subject for the last named quarter of
a century. Next they raised all their postal charges,
reduced all the non-payment routes and diminished
mail facilities everywhere, in hopes of making the
service pay its own expenses. This has proved a
failure. The revenues have fallen off largely, and
the expenses have not been correspondingly, di
minished. • They have taken the southern banks as
their fiscal agents,- and built up by their aid a vast
system of loans; but as the southern banks are
weak and the country is ruined, the limit has been
long since passed. in that direction. They issued
Treasury notes precisely as we did, and in that way,
too, they have exhausted themselves, for while the
large population, wealth, commerce and resources
of the loyal States can easily sustain the weight of
our treasury notes, the southern system has be
come bloated to an unwieldly extent, and the
paper currency has degenerated into a nuisance.
As the rebel government has been from the start
without regular revenues, this paper currency is its
only substantial reliance, and in -order to pay its
array and civil officials,-it is compelled to increase
I continually, and ao augment the trouble.
Internal direct, taxation, the only remaining re•
source, has been reluctantly resorted to, but neces
sity drove them to it at last, and here, too, their
imitation was palpable. They framed the* tax
bill to raise ostensibly revenue of one hundred and
fifty millions, precisely the sum fixed for mit first
'tax bill. To show how futile such a calculation
in their caie must be, we copy the subjoined re
marks 'of the Richmond Whig on the `subject:
"The taxes to be imposed by this bill will have
to be paid by a portion only of ten States. The
narrow strip of country between the mountains and
the head of the tidewater,stretching from the Rap
pahannock to the Mississippi will have the chief
burden to bear. Louisiana and Arkansas can pay
but little, and Texas not much more. 'Kentucky,
Tennessee ' and Missouri cannot be expected to
contribute anything,; and this fact should suggest
to the representtattves from those States the pro
priety of abstaining from a vote on a question in,
wnich their constituents are not affected. This
leaves only seven of the Atlantic and Gulf. States
to bear.the brunt. And they are subject to curtail
ment. Large portions of their territory, mountain
and tidewater, have been overrun by the enemy
and desolated. Those districts, of course can ..pay
nothing, thus leaving the narrow belt first adverted
to to pay all, and at the same time to 'feed the army."
By domestic loans theY have obtained from the
banks and people of the south. $208.796,357. All
the rest of their great debt is - in issues of Treasury
notes. It amounts to much. more than our own
aggregate of notes issued, notwithstanding the diff
erence in population, trade and wealth of the north
and south, and the largely-diminished-area iii which
the rebel notes can now circulate.
The utter exhaustien of the rebel finanees appears
from the fact that the agents of the" Government"
are making seizure of property for the use of the
army and.. paying for it at their own.-=price... The
Richmond ~Erantuter speaks of this as the rude
and rapacious--. action of government "press-gangs"
"mad and reckless employees," The . Columbia
(Ga.) ,Sun tells of the arrest of a person calling him
a government agent who had made several seizures
of bacon in private hands in-that place.
Theleadi as. editorial of the Augusta Constitutional,
of the Bth inst., is nothing but a prolonged howl
against the remorseless seizure and impressment of
property by the rebelverament, now taking place
all over the south. t; pronounces such impress
lo
ments an 'arbitrary, hi h-handed measure, for which
there is no palliation • and says that 'if persisted in,
it will drive the peop'l from the production of all
articles of prin-te neces ty, except what may be suffi
cient for necessities of hem families, thus sapping
the very foundations of, the confederate government,
and even society in thei confederate States."
One of our westerne6lianges truly remarks that
the explanation oft , i government robberies lies
in tite fact that the rebe igovernment has no funds
but its own paper to pa ,for its supplies, and this is
worthless now, so tha it must live like a high
wayman, and either ro or die. It is In this strait
