Mr. Aiknian followed, replying to the con gratulations ot Mr. Kellogg, alluding to the eom ?> ol u ? n< ? w {}ich held the two branches of the 1 resbyterian family in the Westminster Catechism, returning the kind wishes, and expressing his great delight in the fact, that events were bringing them so closely together making them almost like kindred drops mingling into one. The benediction was pro nounced by Mr. Kellogg. Rev. Mr. Wiswell was expected to be present and make an address, hut was prevented by illness. The structure will cost about $3,500 and is ex pected to be completed by the dose of the year. Third Church Pittsburg —The edifice occupied by this church was utterly destroyed by fire bn Wednesday the 21st inst. The fire originated in an adjoining printing office. The building and the organ were partially insured, and the congregation being one of .the most liberal and wealthy in the city, no doubt will speedily take, measures for the erection of a building to take the place of the one destroyed. It was about a quarter of a century old. Green Hill Churoh Philadelphia.—' This church has been undergoing extensive repairs and improve ments and will be re-opened, next Sabbath. Sbme ton thousand dollars have been raised to meet the expenses, to provide a fine large bell and to pay off a debt upon the building. Thirteen persons were admitted on profession at a recent communion season. We congratulate the pastor, Rev. F. L. Robbins, on the inward and outward prosperity of his charge. PRESBYTERIAN MISSIONS. The Missionary seed of the Presbyterian churches in Scotland rtust be quite moderate if judged by the amount of the contributions reported. The Fred Church with a membership of nearly 250,000 raised less than £25,000 last year for Foreign Missions, including the mission to the Jews on the continent of Europe. Of this amount, over £6,500 was raised in India, and £750 in Africa, leaving less than £lB,OOO as the entire contribution of the entire church at home. If we deduct from this sum the amount raised for Jewish missions, we have as the total of contributions for evangelizing the heathen world raised In the Free Church of Scotland, with its quarter of a million of members, the very moderate sum of £14,000 or $70,000. The Established Church, whose membership is probably not less, is reported as contributing £13,770 for Jews, heathen and all. The United Presbyterian Church, with a member ship of nearly 170,000 expends £17,000 in foreign missions including the Jews. The results of these missions are quite in accordance with the moderate degree of sou-denial manifested by the churches. In India, the Free Church with over a hundred laborers has but 374 communicants. In Africa there are 32 laborers and 719 communicants. The Es tablished Church has 44 laborers and 192 communi cants. Thus, two powerful, cultivated, and wealthy churches numbering probably half a million of members are represented in the heathen world by only 176 laborers and 1285 communicants. The American Board with a constituency of less than 400,000 church members, acknowledges this year the receipt of $389,000, has 1075 laborers in the field and over 22,000 communicants in the churches on heathen soil. Discussions with Philosophic Hindoos. Rev. John Robson, missionary of the U. P. Church, Scot land, in Ajmere India, sends deeply interesting accounts of discussions with learned Mohammedans and Brahmans, He speaks of the movement among the better class of Hindoos to reform and revive Brahminism. He says of the leaders in Ajmere: “I learned that they were to have a meeting on the succeeding Sabbath, to determine—so the bazaar gossip ran—the principles of their new religion. I sent a message to one of them with whom I was acquainted, asking permission to be present at the meeting. The answer I got was characteristic enough. ‘Tell the sahib that his house is already built, but ours won’t be ready for a few months yet.” Among the agitators was the editor of a Hindoo paper: “The People’s Friend,” which has always advocated the cause of progress and education. This Hindoo Editor regarded the proposed move ment as parallel to onr Reformation under Luther! Mr. Robson argued with him upon the project and led him to admit that all the progress made in India was, indirectly, the effect of Christian civilization. Arguing further upon the Incarnation, Mr. R. said that “Be saw good reason for believing that God actually had become man. ‘ Ah!’ said he, 1 1 under stand. You look on the incarnation as a fact’ (using the English word, for which there is no equivalent in Urdu). ‘Yes,’ said I, ‘our religion hangs on facts.’ He first of all said that he thought he could produce similar facts from Hindoo Shasters; but he soon left this ground, and said that different explanations might be given of these facts, quoting in proof some passages from the “ Essays and Re views.” The Atnmrion.ii Board.— Receipts in September: Donations, $9,096,52; Legacies, $6,234,80; Total, $15,331,22. India. —At Ahmedmiggur, July 26th, six persons were received into the First' Church. Six had been received in March, and one other had been examined and approved;—l3 in all, this year. Mr. Smith, has made an extensive tour in Ceylon, about Manaar and Aripo, near the pearl fishery. He travelled 297 miles, visited 65 villages, and ad dressed 5000 persons and sold over fifty dollars’ worth of boohs. He says: When we were leaving Jaffna, a native .Christian placed in our hands 18 shillings, and said: “If you find persona who want Scriptures and are not able to purchase them, you may take the price from this money; and if there Is a remainder when you return, pay it to the Bible Society." A few portions, and a New Testament, were given and paid from this donation. . China. —The missionaries at Canton, July 27th, speak of a tour just made, eighty miles up West, lliver, in which they were kindly received, and made favorable impressions. The missionary fraternity have made up a purse of $125, as a Fourth bf July present to the Christian Commission, to assist sick or wounded Onion soldiers. “They say: Wecannot help much by money, which some have termed “the sinews of war;” but we can pray to Him to whom all power belongs, that He will confirm the United States Government tnrn the hearts of all the people to reverence and praise him, and remove African slavery from our native land. God grant it speedily.” At Fuhch'an, last May, eight members were organized into a new church. Two or three persons profess to be interested, one of whom has given up his “ house hold gods,” to be sent to America. Sandwich islands.—According to the records kept at the Office of Public Instruction for the year 1862, there were, throughout the Islands “ about two deaths to- one birth.” Nine candidates for the ministry haw been under the cate of the Presbytery of Mam add Molakai; one has been deprived of his license for criminal conduct, one has been and one was to be dismissed, as not sufficiently promising, leaving six. Among the regular exercises of the meetings of Presbytery, have been the reading of quarterly reports of labors by these persons, and of essays on subjects assigned to them. Many of the essays have exhibited much mental ability, rejec tion, and spiritual knowledge, while others have been as seriously defective. The readings have been followed by vigorous criticism from the members of the Presbytery, with farther development oi the subject, as it might seem to require, for general instruction. The elders present have joined in the discussions with zeal, often contributing valuable information on points of Hawaiian custom and opinion. At each meeting, two of the licentiates have undergone examination in theology, and with reference to their religious experience. Nearly all have appeared creditably,, while some have shown admirable proficiency ana intelligence. , ' Zulus. —During the year, eleven persons have been added to the churcbeß, on profession ot their faith. There are about fifty still on probation, concerning whom we have more or less hope. Five have been suspended, and one excommunicated, in all, we have now not less than 225 church members. Thirty eight chitdren have been baptized. . I } iere Sabbath school scholars In the mission _j liul children and adults have attended our day and family schools, with more or less regularity. For the sup port of the schools, one hundred and fifty-five dollars have been furnished by the natives. One hundred and thirty-seven dollars and thirty-seven cents have been contributed to the American Board, at our monthly concerts. There havei been thirteen mar riages, in a Christian way, but the hnglish Govern ment in Natal, ignores, with reference even to civil ized and Christian blast: men, riles of marriage which are not recognized by-heathen laws! About thirty wagons and carts, and forty ploughs, are owned by natives on the several stations. At a station where Government has built a sugar-mill, the people have contributed thirteen tons of sugar equal to §1.062 50,) towards building a. chapel. And in ad dition to this, they have offered to give three hundred dollars per annum to support a colleague, or teacher, to labor with their pastor, (Rev. Aldm Grout,) as soon as one can be found. The Field in Western Turkey. —Mr. Livingston of Sivas writes as follows, Aug. 10: Within eight hours of Karahissar, there are at least 100 villages, the larger part Christian, several of them containing as m any as 200 houses each, while Tomzara, an hour from Karahissar, has 500 Armenian houses. In all these villages there is a seeming readiness to receive the gospel. I spent a week visiting among them last autumn, and nowhere have I seen such readiness to listen to the Bible. The people came in crowds to see us, and from fifty to sixty persons would sit the whole evening, to hear us read and explain the Word of God. Domestic flews. The South-west— ln six days fighting along and below the line of he Memphis and Charleston Railroad, two very strong positions occupied by the rebels with artillery under Chalmers, were succes sively carried by our troops under Col. Hatch, about 600 rebels were killed, and some hundreds with arms &c., were captured. So says the Memphis Bulletin of the 17th. Memphis dates to the 21stj give the following items: The steamer Crescent City has taken aboard 2700 bales of cotton at the mouth of the White river. The National Union newspaper at Little Rock has been suppressed by the military authorities. Great excitement prevailed among the soldiers there on learning the murder of Gen. Blunt’s officers and men, and vengeance has been sworn against all rebels hereafter caught. The people of Obion and Dyer counties, Tennessee, have armed themselves against the guerillas and whipped them in two or three engagements. The commissioners tor renting the government plantations in Mississippi and Louisiana represent that the workings have paid, and the free laborsystem is decidedly successful and profitable." Roseerans superseded.— The public, having been persuaded by intelligent newspaper correspondents that Roseerans was not to blame for the repulse at Chickamauga, and having restored that General to the high place in their regards which he previ ously held, heard with astonishment of his removal and supersedure by General Grant announced Oct. 20th. The latest newspaper statement is as follows: Gen. Roseerans has left Chattanooga for Cincin nati, accompanied only by two of his personal aids. General Thomas has assumed command of the Army of the Cumberland. It is reported that Bragg has been deposed for bis failure to whip Roseerans. The departments of the Ohio, Cumberland, Ten nessee and Vicksburg, recently commanded by Generals Thomas, Hurlbut, Burnside and Mc- Pherson, are consolidated into the military divirion of the Mississippi under the command of General Grant. East Tennessee. —Geu. Burnside telegraphs that on the 10th, he advanced against the enemy at Blue Springs, and after an engagement, compelled the enemy to withdraw precepitately in the night leav ing his dead and wounded. Gen. Shackelford con tinued the pursuit, driving the enemy from every position and finally clearing them out of the State. Cincinnati, Oct 21.— The Gazette's Nashville correspondent says that we now hold the country from Bristol to the Hiawassee river. Parson Brownlow and Horace Maynard made speeches at Knoxville on the 30th ult., and both endorsed the Administration and fully favored immediate eman cipation in East Tennessee. The following from the KnoxviUe Register now at Atlanta Ga., shows the pressure which the rebels feel in regard to recapturing E. Tennessee: If any one doubts the necessity which would im pel President Davis to sacrifice Richmond, Char leston, and Mobile, all to reacquire Eastern Tennes see, he need only to ask the Commissary General ’ by what agencies and from what source the armies of the south have been sustained during the first ■ year of the war. East Tennesseee furnished the Confederate States with twenty-five millions of pounds of bacon. Last year the State of Tennessee led the army,- - - v *. , On the 21st,, the advance of Gen. Sherman’s Corps, under Osterhaus, had a severe fight with the rebels. Sherman appears to have been advancing from Corinth on the line of the Memphis and Charleston Railroad, to form a junction with Gen. Hooker on the right of the army at Chattanooga. A Nashville dispatch of Oct. 25th, says Gen. Hooker has crossed the Tennessee. Arm; of the Potomac.— After a retrogade move ment which continued until this army was inside of Fairfax, having suffered considerable losses principally in cavalry, and inflicted probably no more than equal loss upon tbe enemy, except in capturing a battery of his artillery; suddenly we find the movement reversed, Lee retreating and Meade pursuing. This change occurred on Monday of last week, Oct. 19th. In our pursuit that day we suffered a loss of 200 cavalry near Gainesville. Our advance re-entered Warrenton the next day without resistance. Gen. Lee retreated behind the Rapidan, leaving only Stuart’s Cavalry between the two rivers. The Railroad bridge across the Rappa hannock, a large and important structure, was burned by the rebels, and the railroad seriously damaged otherwise, so as to retard Gen, Mende’s operations. Officers of Lee’s army stated that their rapid retreat was caused by a destitution of provisions- Their bridge over the Rapidan bad been carried away by the rise in the river, caused by the storm of Thursday night, and Lee laid, a pontoon bridge, over which he crossed his army to the south side of the river. . On Friday night the enemy constructed pontoon bridges, which they laid across the Rappahannock near the Orange and Alexandria Railroad bridge, and the next morning a large portion of their infantry crossed and drove back Gregg’s division of cavalry, and, subsequently engaged with two brigades of our infantry, respectively of the 2d and 3d Corps. For a half hour or more the contest was quite sharp, both sides losing a considerable number. Major Taggart of Philadelphia was killed. Lee’s army appears to be entirely across the Rappahan nock, stretching from Beverly Ford on the lelt to Stafford Court House, of Fredericksburg on the right. Curtin and Agnew —According to the official vote for the entire State, received in the office of the Secretary of the Commonwealth, Andrew G. Curtin has 15,325’ majority. Daniel Agnew has 12,308 majority. Address from Spanish Citizens.— On the Bth of February last one thousand nine hundred and sixty two citizensof Barcelona, in Spain, wrote an address to President Lincoln, congratulating Mm on the is suing of his emancipation proclamation. The reply of the President, through Secretary Seward, is dated the Ist of August. The address to Mr. Lincoln was contained in a magnificent album, having a silver escutcheon of the American Union on,tbe back. A Strong Union feeling began to manifest itself in northern Texas about the time news was received of the surrender of Vicksburg and Port Hudson. Secret Union organization were formed, and a num ber of men bolding situations under tbe confederate government became active members. As the result of this movement, at the August election Mr. Mor gan, a'Union .candidate for Congress in the first Congressional district, comprising the nineteen Northern counties in the State was elected. The N ational Finances- —The subscription agent report? the sale of $2,617,400 five-twenties on the 23rd, being the largest sale on any one day since May. The system of delivering bonds to subscribers on payment of the money is working admirably, while the foreign demand is steadily on the increase. Jeff. Davis has become indignant at tbe action of the British Consuls in reference to foreigners en listed in the rebel service, and has given all the said Consuls notice to quit. Some believe that this ac tion arises jrom the treatment received by Mr. .Ma son in England. Rebel Terms of Peace —The Rich mond Inquirer , of the 16th instant, in an editorial upon “Peace,” says : “ Save on our own terms, we can aceept no peace whatever, and must fight till doomsday rather than yield an iota of them ; and our terms are: “Recognition by the enemy of the independence' of the Confederate States. “ Withdrawal of Yankee forces from every foot of_ confederate ground, including Kentucky and Missouri. “ Withdrawal of Yankee soldiers from Maryland uiitil that State shall decide, by a free vote, wheth er she shall remain in the old Union or ask admission into the confederacy. “ Consent on the part of the Federal Government to give up to the confederacy its proportion of the navy as it stood at the time of secession, or to pay for the same. “Yielding up all pretensions on the part of the Federal Government to that portion of the old ter ritories which lies west of the Confederate States. “An equitable settlement, on the basis of our ab solute independence and equal rights, of all accounts of the public debts and public lands, _and of the ad vantages accruing from foreign treaties. “These provisions, we apprehend, comprise the minimum of what we must require before we lay down our arms. That is to say, the north must yield all, we nothing.” Foreign, By the Scotia, we have news to Oct. 11th; by the Hibernian, to the 13th. England-—On the 3th inst., the officers of the English Government formally seized one of the rams being built by the Messrs. Laird, on the Mersey, and supposed to be intended for the rebel government. : Another authority says that they have both been seized. It is not known what additional evidence had been procured to induce this step. . Henry Ward Beecher had addressed an immense audience in Manchester, boldly defending the policy of our Government, and cairying his audience with film in overwhelming demonstrations of applause. The Examiner says: “ Last night, the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher re ceived a welcome in the Free Trade Hall of Man chester, such as has rarely been aecorded to any other person. The spacious hall was crowded in every part, and, when the reverend ■ gentleman ap peared, he was greeted with the most enthusiastic cheers. During his oration he was frequently inter rupted, but these checks only served to show how limited was the. opposition, and how general was the agreement with the speaker. His pointed remarks were frequently greeted with rounds of applause, and when a notice was read that the ‘broad arrow’ of the Government had that day been placed on the suspected steam rams in the Mersey, the enthusiasm reached its climax* The whole audience rose, voci ferously cheering and waving hats and handker chiefs. The meeting terminated very quietly, not withstanding the early promise of opposition; and Mr. Beecher left behind him an impression which will not soon be forgotten by the friends of the Federal Government m Manchester." Archbishop Whately died on the Bth instant. The Polish Question. —The Paris Patrie main tains the complete accuracy of its statement that Prince Czartoriski had demanded from the Cabinets of London and Paris the recognition of Poland as a belligerent nation, Mexico- —It is stated, in regard to the'Mexican question, that the Emperor Napoleon has addressed an autograph letter to the Archduke Maximilian, fully approving his reply to the Mexican deputation. It is is also stated that the reply of Maximilian, in Austria, is regarded as an acceptance of the throne of Mexico, and measures are being taken, to enable the Archduke to set out for Mexico in February, or March next. The Etna, with news to the 15th, brings the in telligence that a guard, of marines had been placed upon the rams in the Mersey. .. . TJ. S, Christian.

ABOUT TWO HUNDRED MILLIONS remain unsold, and this amount is scarcely sufficient to fur nish a basis for the circulation, of the National Bank ing Associations now being formed in every part of the country. But a short time must elapse before this Loan is wholly absorbed, the demand from Europe, Germany especially, being quite active. As it is well known that the Secretary of the Treas ury has ample and unfailing resources in the duties on imports; internal revenues, and in the issue of in terest-bearing Legal Tender Treasury Notes,, it is nearly certain that it will not be necessary for, him, for a long time to come, to issue further permanent loans, the interest and principal of which are payable in gold. , . , ; These considerations must lead to the prompt eon elusion that the time is not far distant when these “Five-Twenties ” will sell at a handsome premium, as was the result with the “Seven-Thirty' ’’ Loan; when it was ail sold, and could no longer be subscri bed at par. This is a SIX PER CENT. LOAN, the interest and principal being payable in coin, thus yielding about EIGHT,PER CENT. per annum at the present premium on gold. , It is called “ Five-Twenty,” from ihe fact that whilst run foATWEimr years, yet the at par, at any time after five y^ars. The interest is paid half-yearly, on the first days of November and May. Subscribers can have Coupon Bonds, which are pay able to bearer, and issued, for $5O, $lOO, $5OO, and $l,OOO, or Registered Bonds ot similar denominations, and, in addition, $6,000 and 10,000. These “Five-Twenties” eannotbe taxed by States, cities, towns or counties, and the Government tax on them is only one and a half per cent, on the [amount of income, when the income exceeds six hundred dol lars per annum. Income from all other investments, such as mortgages, railroad stocks, bonds, &e., must pay from three to five per cent, tax on the income. Ranks and Bankers throughout the . country will continue to dispose of the Bonds, and all orders,, by mail or otherwise, properly at'ended to.
