OUR ONIIRCE NEWS.
Revival.—An interesting work of grace began
in the Church in Ni4ara Falls, N. Y., in connec
tion with the Week of Prayer. Daily services
were continued for six weeks. Christian were in
structed, strengthened, received. There are about
thirty cases of conversion, mainly among the teach
ers and pupils of the Sabbath-school. At the joy
ful communion season just passed, a part of the
fruits were gathered in—fifteen uniting with the
Church on profession of their faith. It is many
years since the Church was blessed with such 'a re
vival.—Evangelist.
. The Presbytery of Brooklyn, at its stated
meeting, licensed Mr. George M. Boynton, of
Brooklyn, and Mr. Wm. 11. Clark, of Warren,
Ohio, to preach the Gospel.— The Fourth Presbi
tory, New York, have licensed Messrs. John Mc-
J. Quick, L. B. Richards, and R. H.
Richardson, to preach the Gospel. They are mem
bers of the. Senior Class in the Union Theological
Seminary.
Churches and Ministers. —The Second Church,
Columbus, Ohio, organized nearly a quarter of a
century ago as an Independent Church, has recently
so far modified its constitution as to permit a perma
nent connection between it and the Presbytery of
Franklin, N. Y.—Rev. S. T. Steelye, D.D., pastor of
the 4th Church, Albany, has tendered his resignation,
to take effect on the first of May. The Boston Re
corder's Albany correspondent says of this resigna
tion : "This event was unexpected and it is al
most, if not quite, universally' regretted. It did
not originate in disaffection among the people, but
in his personal conviction of duty. Dr. Seelye, by
his genial spirit, his devotion specially to pastoral
service, his popular and earnest style of preaching,
and his readiness to aid in every effort for the pub
geed, has secured the regard and confidence of
his own people, and of the eommnnity generally.
He will be both missed and followed wherever he
may go, with the 'best wishes or very warm friends."
—Rev. Martin R. Vincent, formerly Professor of
Latin in Troy University, and more recently pastor
of the Pacific Street Methodist Church, Brooklyn,
has, accepted a call from the -Fiist (Dr. Remark's)
Church of Troy.—Rev. illcKaig was
installed as pastor of the Third Church, Cincinnati,
on the 3d of May. Sermon by Rev. Dr. Thoinp
son ; charge to pastor by Rev. Prof. Day ; charge

Green Castle Presbytery met at Danville, Ind.,
April 9th, and remained from Thursday until Mon
day, preaching nine sermons—addressing the Sab
bath-school at quarterly meeting, and adminis
tering the sacrament of the Lord's supper.
Madison Presbytery.—The Narrative , says,:
" In view of the fact that our country has called
fbr and seepred the services of many of our best
men, and yet that none of our churches have there
by been deprived of the means of grace, and that
the contributions to benevolent objects in some of
them have. actually increased, we take courage.
Our field was never richer in materials and pro
mises than now."
A Congregationalist View of Presbyterian
ism—The Boston Recorder says of a recent article
of Prof. Smith's on Presbyterianism: "With all
our faith in, and attachment to, -Congregationalism,
we see no reason for narrow and sectarian jealousy
and opposition towards a denomination which is
shown to be so nearly allied to us in principles and
aims, as the Presbyterians."
Oredinatn, lostallation, Etc.—Rev. D. Chi
chester, late of Wolcott,,has accepted the call to
become the pastor at Burdett, N. Y., and has
already entered upon his labors under very favor
able auspices. Rev., William Grassie, late of
Wattsburgh, Pa., has accepted a call to the
Church in Edinboro, Erie county, in the same
State,,where his correspondents will address him
in future: The Ordination of M. M
In
Dana,
who has been laboring for a year past, n Winsted
Church, took place on the 19th ult., in the First
Church, Brooklyn. The Sermon was preached
by the Rev. ,R, S. Storrs, D.D.; the Ordaining
Prayer by Rev. Theodore L. Cnyler ; the Charge
to the Evangelist by the Rev. C. S. Robinson.
Mr. Dana will continue for the present to labor
with the Church at Winsted, in-accordance with
its urgent request. Minister Deposed.—At a
meeting of the Presbytery of Alton, held in Cairo,
El. April 3, 1863, Rev. W: R; Smith was for
mally deposed from the Gospel ministry, for
" contumacy" in refusing to appear, before-Pres
bytery, after repeated citations to answer to the
charges of " forgery," inteinperance," and
general conduct unbecoming to a Christian min
ister. By order of Alton Presbytery.-0.. H.
TA Yvon , Stated Clerk. Alton; April 14,1.863.
•
The Third .Preskytel . of New York licensed the
following candidates, for the Gospel minister :
Messrs. James R.,Firtch,,. Seel J. Hough, Ezra
D. Shaw, Williath W. Williams, Frederick A.
M. Brown, Alexander Nesbitt,, Ellsworth J.
Hill, Albert C. Bishop.
New Church Enterprise in Allegheny.—A
new Presbyterian church O. S. was organized, on
Tuesday, 14th April, in the city of Allegheny. Most of
those engaged iu this new enterprise were formerly
connected with the Central Church ofthat place,
but owing to the difficulties which existed in that
church last summer, on account of . Rev. Dr. Bu
rner, these persons left, and have been ever since
holding regular• services in the chapel of the Wes
tern Theological. Seminary. Others have lately
united with them, so that this church enters upon
its career with over
_sixty members. An aged mem
ber of the First Prestyteriati Church ofpittsburg,
Gen. - William Robinson, has already executed a
deed for a building-site on the North Common, and
almost directly opposite the Western Theological
Seminary. The value of this lot is estimated at
about five thousand dollars. :Yu addition to the lot,
between six and seven thousand have been already se
cured; so that a becomirig honk , of worship will be
built with all proper expedition.. This church: will
be known as the North church of the City of Alle
gheny.
Congregational.--A union between the Congre
gational and Methodist societies at Washington,
Mass., was practically effected four years ago, and
on the 25th of March last it was ratified by an
advisory council consisting of members of both de
nominations. Rev. M. M. Longley, the pastor,
generously gave $5O. of his salary last year, thus
cancelling the subscriptions of several in the war.:
We could name a Congregational pastor not five
miles from Boston, who, on a salary of $1.500.,
last year paid $l5O, toward reducing the parish
debt ; and another who did more than that.—The
Editor
Congregational society at Rutland, Vt., have re
cently presented their senior pastor, Rev. Dr. Silas
Aiken. (formerly of . Park Street Church, Boston)
the parsonage house in which he resides, worth not
less than $2,000. This is a gratifying testimonial
to Dr. Aiken's labors with them for the past fifteen
years, and it must have been a pleasant surprise to
him, as he had no knowledge of it until the deed
was - placed in his hands. Let this incident be ari
example to other societies whose ministers, worn
out in the service, need rest and a home. Are not
parishes under some obligation to care for their
aged and infirm pastors ?----ReV. Geo. Bowler,
lately pastor of the Methodist Church in Westfield,'
Mass., was installed pastor of the 2d. Congregation
list Church in Westfield, by a council, April 15th.
The candidate stated frankly that his change of
ecclesiastical relation, 'after fourteen years' ministry
in the Methodist church, was not in consequence of
any change in his doctrinal views. The council of
course were not satisfied Ivith the examination, but
the people seemed nearly unanimous in their choice,
and they proceeded with the installation services.
Mr. B. was lately Colonel of the 46th Regiment.
—Congregationalist.—High Street. Church, Port
land Me. —Rev. Dr. Chickering has just preached
his 28th anniversary sermon. During this time
he has admitted nearly 800 members to his church.
Baptist. —Rev. N. W. Miner writes to the
Examiner from Springfield, 111., April 15th : The
Lord is reviving His work ih my church with great
power. I baptized twenty-two the •first Sabbath of
the present month, and eighteen the secend Sab
bath. The work is now extending into some of the
other churches of the city, and we hope it will be
come extensive and general. This church has fur
nished more men for the war than all the churches
in the city, and God is rewarding us for the sacri
fice. Our depleted ranks are being rapidly filled
up—The Baptist Missionary Union have decided
to observe by appropriate services, their fiftieth an
niversary, which occurs in May, 1864. The society
has just closed a financial year of great prosperity,
the receipts for the past year being $15,000, in ex
cess of those of the previous year, thus showing
that even in these troublmis times, God is caring
for the missionary work, and opening the hearts
of his people to give liberally.—The Baptist
Home Missionary Society also shows a gratifying
increase over the receipts of lait year. Rev. Amos
~ Tebster, editor and proprietor of the Christian Era, _
published at Tremont Temple, was surprised the
other, day by the receipt of a package of $6OO, from
a Baptist deacon for the treasury of this society.
Revivals.—ln the State Street Church, Brook
lyn,..eighty-eight persons have been received by
profession of' faith ,since January 4th. In Wells,
Me., after two weeks' special services, more than
one hundred hopeful conversions are reported of all
ages from four score down to eleven years. In both
the above cases, the churches entered into solemn
covenant in reference to the work, and particular
individuals were made objects of more or less gene
ral prayer. Since the commencement of the aca
demical year at South Headley ; it is thought more
than forty puplis have been converted.
.--- - Chaplains. Philander Read, ofthe
Amherst class of '59, has become chaplain to . the
4th Louisiana Native Guards (colored) at, New Or
leans.—Rev. Charles W4 , Homer of Lowell (Epis
copal) has been appointed, chaplain of the 16th
Mass. Regiment.—Rev. Mr. Scandlin, represen
tative from Grafton, when. the Legislature adjourns,
will act as a chaplain at large in the army in behalf
of the. American Unitarian Association.—Rev.
G. A. Oviatt, of Somers, Ct., has resignedhis posi
tion as chaplain of the 25th Conn. Rev. Edward
L. Clark of Boston, for nearly a yea,r chaplain of
the Massachusetts Regiment, has aecep‘ted, a call
from the First Church in North Bridgewater. Sal
ary, $1250.
Miscellaneons.—The receipts of the American
Board for March were $35,938, about one fourth
from legacies;. from foreign lands and missionary
stations, $993. The total receipts of the Board for
seven months of the financial year, to April Ist,
were $2C4,200. More than one third of the .re
ceipts for March were from Massachusetts.
The year closing March 31st, was one of great pros
perity to the American Bible Society. The 're
ceipts were $422,588. At the monthly meeting of
the Managers, April 2d, grants were made of 34,000
Testaments, 1,000 Bibles to the Christian Commis
sion for distribution in the army. The Richmond
Christian Advocate (Methodist), in response to the
announcement of a grant of 7,000 Bibles and Test
ments for circulation in the rebel States, claims
that the Bible Society owes the books to Virginia.
The New York Observer replies that at this moment
the Virginia Bible Society is in debt to the Aineri
can Bible Society more that $4,000 I while before
secession the whole South was drawing yearly from
the Society ten or fifteen thousand dollars more
than it paid in I—An unusual religious interest
is prevailing in Taunton, Mass. There have been,
thus far, upwards of fifty conversions. Those
churches which are at present enjoying the season
of spiritual increase are the Whittenton (Ortho
dox), the First Methodist Episcopal, and the North
Street (Orthodox) Churches.—Revival meetings
have been held for two months at Johnson, Vt., all
the churches co-operating, and fifty or sixty per
son have expressed hope.----A meeting in behalf
of the Unitarian ; _Mission in _lndia was held in the
second Church, Boston, on the 19th ult. John G.
Palfrey was in the chair,. and gave a history of the
D
movement. Rev. Mr. all, the originator of the
present Mission in Calcutta, who has for some time
been in this country and is about to return, was
also present. A statement was made in regard to
the Unitarian Missions in Madras. A native:Hitt
doo, who bad passed, by a very natural transition
froin Mohammedanism to Unitarian belief, and
was baptized " William Roberts," commenced this
Mission unaided in 1767. His son now has the
mission in charge, and this meeting was called to
raise $6OO to relieve him of the necessity of living
in a damp, mud cabin. Two hundred dollars of,the
money was collected, and two hundred more pledg
ed. 'Mr. Dail left on Friday, when the Register
hopes the whole amount would have been raised.—
Humboldt's testimony to the indebtedness of the
literary and scientific world to missionaries, finds a
good illustration - in the Tamil and English Diction
ary, which, after thirty years' labor, has just been
completed by Rev. Dr. Winslow, of the'Atherican
Mission at Madras. It is a work of nearly one
thousand pages, and is a noble monument of th
learning, patience and perseverance of this venera
ble missionary. Its value is not limited to the
mission, but it has a national importance which the
British periodicals in India acknowledge in , the
warmest terms of commendation. As Americans
and as Christions we can rejoice that cur missiona-
ries, while zealously engaged in their own work,
are.compelling the world to accept and be thankful
foetheir labors.

Foreign.--The Archbishop of Canterbury and
the Bishop of Chester have followed the example
of the Bishop of ,Oxford, and forbidden Bishop
Colenso to officiate in their Dioceses. The Bishop
of Durham has substantially done the same. The
Bishop of Rochester had previously taken the same
position.—Passaglia is forming a General Ecclesias
tial Society, to embrace all the previncial efforts for
the defence of the interests of liberal priests, and
to agitate fora Catholicism which shall be separat
ed from the exercise of temporal power. No doc
trinal change is contemplated.—Algeria. As the
great mass of the. European settlers in this Colony
are French, Spanish and Italians, it necessarily fol
lows, that Romanism is the prevailing form of
religion. The Papists have churches in every
European settlement, a number of monastic insti
tutions, and since 1558, a bishop, of Algers.
Protestantism, however, has likewise gained a
firm' footing, and is, comparatively, making greater
progress than the Roman Catholic Church. As in
Fiance, the Reformed and Lutheran Churches re
ceide a support from the state, which pays a salary
to their pastors,' and provides for the creation and
support of the churches. As the number of Pro
testants in most localities is limited, they are every
where united into joint congregations, ind are also
placed under a joint (Reformed and Lutheran) con
sistory at Algiers, which consists of all the Protest
ant ministers of Algeria, arid ten lay members, six
of whom are elected by the Presbyteral Council of
Algiers, and two each, by, the Presbyteral Councils
of Constantine and Oran. They "must be in equal
number, Reformed and Lutherans. Where there
is a necessity in one town of two ministers, one
must be taken from each of the two state churches.
As the larger number of the Protestants are Germans
and Gernian-Swiss, the Gustavus Adolphus Society
has taken a great interest in their churches and
schools, and makes annually liberal grants for the
support of the old ones and the establishment of
new ones. But active missionary operations are
also carried on among the other nationalities. Those
among' the Spaniards are, in 'particular, very inter
esting, as the formation of a numerous Spanish
Protestant Church would have a considerable in
fluence on the, spreading of Protestantism in Spain.

The War.
Another` Sabbath Assault and its Come
quences.—The rebels made their recent attack up
on Cape;Girardeau on Sabbath April 26th. It was
accompanied with a deitand for the surrender of
the place. The result was they were repulsed in
two assaults with the loss of'ss killed and upward of
200 wounded : were pursued and overtaken, and a
Whole regiment, which had stopped to cook supper
was surprised and assailed with a murderous fire
from howitzers. loaded with musket balls at only
thirty yards distance, which killed many, five or six
hundred prisoners'were taken,and none are believed
to have escaped.
A Raid in W. Virginia.—Great astonishment
was felt at the announcement that 4000 rebel caval
ry had on: the 27th of April passed across from the
vicinity of Winchester probably and seized Morgan
town, Va., a place just south of the junction of
Cheat and Monongahela Rivers. Their object seem
ed to be mainly the plunder of horses, though fears
were entertained that they designed destroying the
B. and O.'R. .R., and. advancing on Wheeling or
into Pennsylvania. Pittsburg, April 28—Evening.
—The latest intelligence from the scene of the raid
seems to reduce its dimensioni greatly. The force
at Morgantown is repute& as not over 800 strong,
and is supposed to be the same party of guerillas
that has been endeavoring to damage the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad since Sunday. The telegraphic
Communication is perfect between 'Wheeling and
Grafton, and the railroad east of that point is not
much damaged, as far as known. The excitement
is abating.—Some of the papers of Saturday con
lain the folloWing Private reports up to May 1, all
agree in stating that the Union forces, under Mul
ligan, were repulsed, near Fairmount, and the Bal
timore and Ohio Rrailroad bridge at that point was
entirely destroyed. A large force of rebels now ,oc
cupy Morgantown. The Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road has suffered. severely. The bridge at Fair
mount and Cheat, river was blown up.
. Mr. W. P. Smith, master of transportation, on
the B: and 0. R. R. telegraphs from „Baltimore,
May 2, that the rebels have retreated Southward
and that - our forces, in great strength, are in pur
suit One large iron bridge a mile, east of Fair
mount, five unimportant bridges west of it, and
three on the Parkersburg branch have been des
troyed; no ether damage was done to the road.
Gen. Banks', Expedition to the West of the
Missisissippi has proved a complete and brilliant
success. Advancing on the lines towards Opelou
sas on the north and Franklin and New Iberia on
the South , our soldiers drove the rebels before them
attacked `them in front and rear; captured two to
three thousand prisoners out of a rebel force of five
to eight thousand, killed two general officers, com
pelled the destruction of all'the rebel gunboats and
transports with vast military stores, to prevent
their falling into our hands, and opened up the
very garden country of the Southwest to liberty,
good government and commerce again....
'News was received at New. Orleans on the 26th
that General Banks had taken Alexandria, near the
head of Red river. A*Brashear City desriatch'of the
24th ult., to the .Nevi ,Orleans Era, states that a
rebel soldier from the Red river country reported
that three gunboats had 'captured Alexandria several
days previous, probably from Admiral Farragut's
fleet. The same soldiers reports that our occupation
of the country, and Admiral Farragut's blockade of
Red river, have seriously interfered with the sup
plies for the rebels at Vicksburg and Port Hudson.
Printing offices were found at Franklin and Ope
lousas with; Cox,._ Seymour, and Vallandigham's
speeches printed and for sale. The mass of the peo
ple are ready to take the oath of allegiance, and
hundreds are so doing. The country is well sup
plied, and our army is living on provisions confiscat
ed during its march. Meat, poultry, and corn are
in abundance, but there is no flour. The 'Charles
ton Mercury says that the Federals 'captured, •at
Grand Lake, La., 1,000 prisoners, two rams, four
transports, and three gunboats.
Vigorous Measures.—Less severity is exercised
frequently in Washington and by the Central Go
vernment toward rebel sympathizers than in other
quarters. Two government Clerks named Addison
have recently been discharged, having long been
under suspicion for communicating with rebels. In
Cincinnati, two persons have been, convicted by
court martial, of harboring and'protecting rebel sol
diers. One was sentenced to imprisonment sixty
days, the other to three months and a fine of $lOOO.
A spy was also sentenced to be,hung May 1. In
Louisville a disloyal organization 500 strong has
been discovered and some of the members arrested
by the military. All citizens .who ,refuse to take
the'oath in Nashville are sent South.
The Attack on Charleston it was expected
would 'be renewed about the 3d of May. Port
Royal dates to the 26th ult.. say that all the Moni
tors except the Weehawken had left that harbor.
Our troops were embarking on- transports, which
conveyed them to Several points between Port
Royal and Charleston. Strong positions have
been taken on Folly and Cole's Islands, and also at
a point on or near Kiaway Island. North Edisto
is occupied in considerable force.. On Folly Island ;
which faces the sea, running south from Morris'
Islaficl, the troops.were entrenching. .
Immense Transactions in. the ,Five -Twenty
Loan,—Five Millions Subscribed in a Day.—The
sale of five-twenties at the various agencies May
Ist, reached five millions of dollars, distributed as
follows:
New York and New Jhrsey, $2,150,000; Boston
and New England, 1,50,000; Philadelphia and
Pennsylvania, $805,000 / Ohio and other Western
States, 300,000;, Washington, 75,000; Maryland,
60,000 ; Delaware, 60,;(l00 ; Kentucky, 50,000.
, .
From a careful average ,inade by Jay Cooke, sub
scription agent, it is estimated that over five thou
sand individual silbscriphonswere made on that day,
including, of course, thelsmall amounts of the in
dustrial (Jesse's, as well ' ' the small amounts sub
scribed by capitalists, a. even Cabinet Ministers.
There surely can be no b tier evidence of the deter
mination of the whole ople to support the Gov
ernment and crush the rebellion than is given in
the success of this loan. ,
