Receipts of the Board of Foreign Missions last year, $21,686 ; only 286 out of 421 churches contribute. The extraordinary high rates of exchange haVe subjected. the !Board to a loss of $11,698,51, leaving it bur 'llene,' with a debt of $ll,OOO, for whose pay maul this Synod is urgently implored to ,make provision. The amount raised over the whole Church, during the year,' ~ .for be nevolent and religious purposes, is $282,491.- 60, and for congregational purposes is $538.- 056,10. 2505 have been added to the mem bership on, profession. The work among the freedmen was earnestly commended to the Board of Domestic Missions. The sub ject called forth a warm and able discussion, in which Dr. Yermilye took a prominent part in favor of universal liberty, which called forth warm and hearty applause. The proposal to establish a Pl;ofessorship of Miesianary Pecdning in a projected Theologi cal Seminary of the Northwest was approv ed. On the course of the missionaries in Amoy, China, who have united in a Pres bytery with the very successful missionaries of the English Presbyterian Church, the following, after an exciting discussion, was adopted Basolved, That while the General Synod does not deem it necessary or proper to change the missionary policy defined and adopted in 1857, yet in consideration of the peculiar circumstances of the Mission at Amoy, the brethren there are allowed to de fer the formation of a Classis of Amoy until in their judgment such a measure is requir ed by the wants and desires of the churches gathered by them from among the heathen. it was also resolved that the Secretary of the Board of Foreign Missions be directed to transmit to Rev. Dr. Hamilton, Convener of the Missionary Committee of the English Presbyterian Church, the present action of the Synod concerning the Amoy Mission, and to ,make a fitting recognition ; of the valuable help which our Mission has receiv ed from that Committee. New Brunswick was chosen as the next place of meeting.. United Presbyterian General Assem bly.—lt was voted at the recent meeting of this body that for the home work, including the freedmen, 'from twenty-five to thirty thousand dollars will be imperatively re quired. And in the foreign work, thirty five thousand (or, as the rates of foreign ex change are now, seventy thousand) dollars. was felt to be the very lowest sum with *blot' we can go forward. Chalmers on Church: Government.-- A discussion in the Edinburgh Free Church Presbytery, On the appointment to a theo logical professorship in ClasgoW, brought out from Dr. Hanna a statement which ex cited a good deal of comment, that certain portions of Dr. Chalrner's Lectures—expre , ..- hive of liberal views on Church government —had been suppressed by the special deci sion of the late Dr, Cunningham. Thera will probably be more definite iniortnaljoe German Reformed.-The tercentenary offerings already amount to $103,016, and the account will not be closed until the meeting of the Synod in October. Of the whole sum • $30,000 is to go to the Franklin and Mar shall College, at Lancaster; $20,000 to the Theological Seminary at Mercersbnrg, and• the remainder to Home and Foreign sions, Church Extension, Orphans' Homes, and the Widows' Fund Society.

Fifty bap tized believers entered into this organization, and yesterday we were permitted to lead doWn into their chosen Jordan forty-nine converts." The American .ond Foreign Bible AS`ociety, which 28 years ago withdrew from the American Bible Nlociety, on a dispute about the Translation of baptizo into foreign tongues, this year appointed a committee to consider the question of. reunion with the old society, viz.: -Dr. Anderson, N.

Dr. Hague moved to -reoonsider the resplution referring to a committee the question of re ° - unitino• with, the American Bible Society, whichbeing agreed to, it was voted and re solved to table the-resolution. Revival.—Baptist papers of June <1 th, contain the following: "Sunday before last was a day. of great _interest with the South Baptil3t church in Newark, N. J. In the afternoon the Lord's Supper was administerd and it was a season of unusual solemnity. Nearly forty persons received the hand of fellowship through the pastor, Rev. Edgar M. Levy, among them his two sons. A number had been inquiring, and much seri ousness pervaded the congregation when, on the coming of Mr. Hammond, the relig ious interest WAS greatly quickened. Nearly a hundred souls have been converted, and the pastor has baptized every Sunday, with but one exception, for nine weeks. Items.—At the recent meeting of the Kansas State Baptist Convention the corner stone of the first building of Ottawa Univer sity was laid, with appropriate exercises.--- Both the Baptist ministers of Hoboken, N. J., were recently drafted.—The amount raised by the Baptists for Home Missions last.year was $72,000. They propOse to raise next year $150,000. They raised for Publi cation, $31,000. Trouble in California.—A. late number of the Pacific says: We lately noticed the elec tion of Rev. J. A. Davidson as pastor of the Baptist church in - Petaluma. He • and his church have .been having hot times. The Copperhead- portion of the congregation re moved the bell from the belfry of the church. The church has tried and with drawn fellowship from several members for " disregard of church - authority." Week ago Sunday, while the pastor was in the midst of his sermon, a large:etone was hurled against the house, evidently intended for the church window, but fortunately struck a few inches lower on the: clapboard. On Tuesday Week one of'the expelled 'members went into the church and put a lock of his own upon the door, and notified the officers that they must not use their own property. The windows were nailed down also. • The loyal citizens could not stand this copper head insolence any loner; so at Wee o'clock that day they seized the bell and put it in its place, rang it well, and hoisted the stars and stripes. Moravian The late provincial Synod of the Moravian church in this country is a body which meets once in three years, is spoken- of with great satisfaction by the Moravian. It says: "We do not remember any previous Synod - distinguished by the. same. degree of harmony and brotherly love." Three im portant measures were determined upon. (1.) Restrictions are to be removed from the College which the Moravian thinks will . in crease its patronage and bring in qtwlents net betoug'.r.g to the Church. (I) The work of publication is to be put upon a basis of enlarged efficiency. (3.) Most momen tous of all, step are to be taken to secure a stated income for the common causes of the Church, from sources other than the Susten tation Fund. 'We welcome these indication of increased activity on the part of this small, but highly honored and faithful branch of the Church of Christ. Episcopal _Rector for Old St. Paul's Church; Norfolk.— The Rev. Matthias E. Willing, A. M., late rector of the Church of the - Atonement, in the city of New York, has received a unani mous call from the vestry of St. Paul's Church, Norfolk, to become the rector of that church. The call has been accepted, and the reverend gentleman enters at once upon his duties, wider very favorable au, spices. It will be remembered that the Rev. Mr. Willing, in October last, restored the prayer for the President of the United States, and loyal religious services to Noir folk, in good -'old .St.:7Paul's Church, under the military authority of that good man, Brig. Gen. Barnes. He has been faithfully preaching the gospel in this church ever since;and it is gratifying to know that un conditional Union men are most nobly sus taining him by their presence and their offerings. Xiscellaneous Ltd/lei-an AVnod of Pennsylvania.--This body consists of 117 ministers, about 300 congre gations, and not less than 50,000 members. -There were 90 clerical and 50 lay-delegates 'present at the late session , ' at ''Pottstown. -The action of the delegates, in withdraWing from the General SYnod, on account of the reception - of the Franckean Synod, was ap- Pro - Ved.—Rev. R. AS. Cook; Seeretary of -the Sabbath Committee, has been com riielled by failing health to resign that posi tion, and to abandon wholly the sphere of public labor in which, for the last twenty-five „years, he has been .so eminently useful.— In a paper recently read in England to dis prove Cardinal Wiseman's • assertion, that the Roman Catholics are steadily increasing in that country, the following fact was de filmed from the statistical table: " That, while the Roman Catholic population of England and Wales does not amount to one twentieth part of the inhabitants, one-fifth of the inmates of the jails in those countries are set down as of that religion ; and the ratio of such inmates appears, from the ex perience of the last'two years, to be increa sing." Convention of Christian Associations.—The Ninth Annual Convention of Young Men's Christian Associations for the United States, Canada and the Provinces, was recently held in Boston. About two hundred and fifty delegates were present. Among the prominent men present were George H. Stuart, Esq., of Philadelphia ' and Rev. Mr. Willets, of Brooklyn, N. Y. Mr. Stuart Was present at all the sessions of the Convention, and by his warm, earnest utterances and ex cellent Christian spirit, added spiritual tone to the meetings. Most of the sessions were held in Mt. Vernon church, (Dr. Kirk's.) They were prefaced each day with prayer meetings, all of which were characterized by deep devotional feeling,: .The Young Men's Association of .this,,eity . ' t ,made the mostarople )5 - eparation for the delegates, and the reception given Was all that could I have been desired. On Wednesday evening PlirLA DEL , THURSDAY, JUNE 23, 1864. " Welcome Festival" was given in Music Hall, at which there was an organ concert, a bountiful collation, a vocal musical enter tainment, with short and spirited addresses by Item. Mr. Willets, of Brooklyn. Rev. Dr. Kirk of this city, and others. On Friday forenoon the delegates, with the clergymen of the city and other invited guests, took an excursion down the harbor in the steamer. Rose Standish. After landing at Fort Inde pendence and visiting the Farm School at Thompson's Island, the party were received by the officers of the City Government at Deer Island, where a generous collation was in waiting. The meeting on Friday evening at the Temple, on behalf of the Christian Commis sion, was one of the very best of the week. Mr. Stuart spoke for two hours e and kept the audience chained to their seats as he described the work of the delegates upon the battle-field and in the hospital. On Saturday afternoon a Sabbath school meet ing was held in the - .Temple,, at which four hundred and thirty children sung. The hall was crowded to overflowing, and the occasion was one of great interest. The farewell meeting was held on • Sabbath eve ning, at which six or eight persons froth different parts of the cotintry and Provinces spoke. The meetings Were entirely harmonious,: the discussions upon various subjects, in cluding the state of the country and the work of , the "Aslioeiatiens,. were animated and interesting. and 'all felt, as the hour for separation drew near, that the week had been one which would be remembered through time and eternity. Such gather ings must- result in goodßoston Recorder. 2kbout 8160.0 in subscriptions and contri butions have already: been reported by - the various committees of the City Missionary Society of the Lutheran Church, established in Philadelphia, Feb. 17, 1864. Half of this amount comes from St. Matthew's church. Rev. J. 12. Hamilton, pastor of the churches of Sturgeonville, Girard, and West. minster, Presbytery of Erie, has resigned his charge, to continue in his place as a chap lain of the United States Army.—,-Among the wounded officers at Washington is Chap lain Theodore Holmes, let Conn. Cavalry, fortherly pastor of the Congregational church in East Hartford. but resigned and enlisted as a private.—A dispat ch from the army of the Potomac, dated June Ist, says: Chap lain B mtlett, let Maine Cavalry, was killed a feW days ago by a shell. Vitizos of a rjhaplain.—The following extract. from a letter by a chaplain in the army"of the .Potolllfte, takAn from the Intelligence'', will be read with interest : " The entire army seem. confident of success. We feel pretty certain of going into Richmond before many weeks. I find many cases of wounded men who have an unwavering trust in Christ as the Friend of sinners, and find some who say they are not Christians but desire to be.. I found a man shot through both thighs, who wept, saying he had a letter from his wife, in which she told him she was praying for him. He said be felt his need of a Sa viour. One of.,my own Regiment, shot bad ly through the fade, when I said, Puit your trust in Christ, answered, 'I will do it.' We are getting off all the wounded to the White House, twelve mile . S from here. In many instances I have heard many wounded and dying men expressing their- confi dence in Jesus, and saying they were not Christians when they went into the army. Yery few, indeed, are indifferent. I think the meetings held ,in, the winter have .pre pared many for this great crisis ; and eternity alone will reveal the good which has been done by the simple means of preaching Christ and him crucified. You will hear singing and prayers among the soldiers daily," Free Church. of Seotland.—The General As sembly of this church met May 19th, in Edinburg. Principal Fairbairn of Glasgow was elected moderator. A long and able discussion on 'the union of the unendowed Presbyterian churches took place, in which Dr. Buchanan, Principal Candlish, Dr. Begg, Prof. Douglas, Sir If. W. Moncreiff and others, supported the proposal for union, and Dr. 4-ibson, with others less known to Americans, opposed it. Finally i twits agreed by acclamation, to approve of the diligence of the Committee, and to reappoint them with the same instructions as before,--t" to aim at the accomplishMent of the object contemplated by all suitable means consis tent with the principles of this church." The folloWing extract from the Report of the Assembly's Committee on, union is im portant: A communication has been re ceived from the Rev. Dr. Goold, of the Re formed Presbyterian Church, transmitting the following extract from the minutes of a meeting of the Synod of , that body, of date the Oh of the present month of May "The Synod took into consideration the question of union among the non-established Presbyterian churches in Scotland, when, after communications from the General As sembly of the Free Church, from the. Synod of the United, Presbyterian Church, and from thejoin t Comm ittees of these Churches, had been read by the clerk, it. was moved by the Rev. William Symington, and seconded by, the Rev. Professor ~ Binnie, that— ' " The Synod, recognising' with gratitude to God the large amount of - attention-Which has recently been given to the subject of. union.amoug the non-established Presbyte rian churches in Scotland, - cordially ac knowledging the Christian-courtesy of the committees of the Free and United. Presby terian Churches in the communications now on the table, and prayerfully desirous to prornote the glory of the Head of thaCkurch . by cO•Operating in every way consistent with the principles of this Church With those who are already seeking this desirable end, do appoint the following ministers and elders a committee to confer with the said commit tees, and to report to next meeting of Synod: The Moderator, Rev.. Dr. Graham, Dr. Goold, and 16 others." This communication, coming from church so justly and highly esteemed, the committee have received, as they feel assur ed the Assembly will receive it, with the most cordial gratification. The deputation from the Synod or the English Presbyterian Church, consisting of Rev. Mr. Frazer the moderator, Dr. Munro of Manchester, Dr. Anderson of Morpeth, and James Watson Esq., of London, was in troduced by Sir H. W. Moncreiff. After they had been heard, Dr. Candlish, in a short address, endeavoured to exonerate the Free church -from- any suspicion of slight or intentional ill-Usage towards the English Synod in declining to admit them to a share in the negotiation of the Joint Committee on union. He said: " The matter was talked over among them selves, and it was seen that this proposal for union would• not go very far Without its being accessary to take counsel with the friends of the English Presbyterian Church. For it was seen plainly that they must be Army. Foreign taken into tile union in some form or other, either in that of a large Church embracing both England and Scotland ; or two Churches, one in England and one in Scotland. He felt it, therefore, needful to move a resolu tion as follows: 'The General Assembly having learned from the deputation that the Synod whom they represented, had appoint ed a committee on union with other noh eEltabliAicd Churches. instruct their own committee to confer as they may see cause with the said committee; it being under stood that in taring this step the General Assembly must not be held as indicating any opinion in favor of the proposal relative to a formation of a British Church, on which severs I of the deputies have largely spoken.'" The resolution was adopted. We may here quote the opening sentences of the article in the 'Weekly Review, Julie •1, .. on the Union Debates. _ „.. We entirely agree with Dr. Candlish that the Union movement now presents a more hopeful aspect—more evidence of actual progress made—than it .did this time last year. We remember the glow of enthusi asm elicited by the memorable debates, United Presbyterian and Free Church, by which the movement was inaugurated ; we have not forgotten the joy of many, the chagrin of a few, the surprise of all, to find Presbyterian Churches, which had so illus triously vindicated their purity, entering en the path of peace. But it was possible that diffichltie,s of aformidabl e nature would emerge ; that, when the radiant morning mist cleared off, the Churches might find themselves facing each other in hostile ar ray; points of irreconcilable•difference brist ling upon either side like lines of bayonets. All indefiniteness is now at an end. The investigations of the Joint Committee and debates of this year have enabled us to exchange conjecture for' fact. The Chris tian community throughout Europe and America, looking not without' interest upon the proceedings ; of these Churches,' are explicitly informed as to the extent of difference between them on what was al lowed to be the most important subject of diversity. Both Churches agree that Christ is King; and Uri Bible the laW, of men and nations ; that the civil magistrate, ordained by God for the discharge of civil duties, is enjoined to respect the Church in the exercise of that spiritual independence which is conferred upon her by Christ; and that rulers and magistrates are bound, to promote the cause of true religien in all ways consistent with Scripture. One of the Churches maintainS, further, that Scripture excludes pecuniary' subsidy as a means by which civil gOrernments can support relig ion, but permits her members to hold the opposite opinion if they .choose. ?1,7he.-other Cnurch maintains that under certain cir cumstances, Scripture permits and enjoins the dedication of national resources to the cause of religion. In theory she refuses to her members liberty to judge for themselves on this point, but in practice, as is well known, she leaves the matter open. No . Free Church l Minister incurs risk of deposi tion for being a 'Voluntary. In order to complete the UntOn. the United Presbyte rian Church has only to declare formally that she is prepared to extend to Free Churchmen collectively that liberty which she would extend to every one of them ap plying individually for admission within her pale. To obtain the same result, the Free Church has only to adjust her theory to her practice, and to - declare that her ministers and members are free to judge for them selves, from Scripture, how the civil govern ment ought to promote the cause of Christ.. DIVERSITY OF DOOTFbINE IN THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH. A writer in the Northwestern Church man., who glorifies, in the strongest tome, the Episcopal: Church, uses this lan guage : will venture to say, that schools of opinion are More Widely separated in our American Church than any two sects are separated; and yet that does not hinder us from Baying the same creed, and joining in the same Liturgy and minis tering for each other. The Apostles' Creed, then, is the only 'belief I have any right to exact of any man present ing himself for baptism; and the Church would not uphold me in exacting any other. She was divinely formed to be so comprehensive, that she could em brace within her life-giving arms, men of the most divergent natures. You may hold, for instance, that at Some day ;n the far future, punishment is to cease. I cannot keep you out of the Church for that, as long as you say: I believe in the Life Everlasting.' You may hold curi ous, and to me, absurd, views about your heavenly body, and, although I differ with you, I must receive you if you be lieve•that Christ arose, and that your own identity, your very self, is to rise ,also. You may hold loose views about 'the Apostolic:: Succession, but you can not be rejected if you belieVe in the holy Catholic Church. Fiercely bitter may be your CAvinisin, I cannot help it, if you believe in God the Son, who re_ deeinal you and allniaPkind; and your Arrninianisin may 1):_ iudulged in, if you believe in God the Holy Ghost, who sanctifieth you and all the people of God.. If you want. do',:be: immersed; ..r must immerse you. In opinion the wid -est margin—in faith; in the facts of the Apostles' Creed unity. "People often safte ,fine : 'I like the Episcopal Church, because it is so libe r4d.' It is only liberal because it holds all Truth, and recognizes the right of indiVidual opinion: - It has carefully , separated essentials from non-essen tials. Of the former it says : This is God's Truth as it hai been held in His Church from the beginning—this is the Catholic creed which must be held.' Of the latter it says : There are points on which men will differ; differ, then, in love and kindness!" It would seem from the above vita , tion that the leaven of the Essays and Reviews is working in the American Episcopal Church, also. 2,dutrtisentents.
