ftms. A CITY PASTOR REMEMBERED. A month ago, we reminded onr rea doiis that the exceedingly appropriate and useful practice of supplementing the salary of pastors, in these times of stimulated prices, had not .goce out of fashion; and hy two recent examples, we encouraged them to feel that they would not bo lonesome or singular in fflerforming such a kindly act to their pastors, if they had not already done it. We are happy to be able to add still tnother and a very illustrious instance [o these recent examples:—that of old Pine Street Church, to the pastor, Rev. pr. Brainerd and to his estimable lady. - Immediately after the prayer-meet ing of Friday, July Ist, the congrega- tion was called to order by Sami. Work Esq., when Mr. Young rose and said that all would remember, that two foars ago, the congregation had given pr. Brainerd a supper, commemorative )f the Quarter pentury of his connection with Pino Street Church. On that oc casion, an omission was made in regard td Mrs. Brainerd, which they now de lired to make and he begged the privilege of giving her the silver tea set before them; purchased for the pur pose at the Sanitary Fair. Robt. J. Mercer, Esq., then rose with an envelope containing $1,250, (after wards increased to $1,400) and remark ed that th6° tea-service was beautiful, but unfortunately emptj . These times, he said, pressed heavily on all salaried men, whatever might be the Doctor’s Salary, it was now practically reduced to twelve or fifteen hundred dollars, and no clergyman in the city could live lon that. The old friends of the church ,and pastor, in consideration of this fact, had supplemented his salary by the en i closed sum of $1,250. Dr. Brainerd said, in response, that ihe had been a speech-maker from his ijnouth up. He had made speeches, po litical, judicial, ecclesiastical and relig ious ; but he was now in a “ tight place,” for ho had never been called to acknowledge from any quarter before, a donation of $1,250. He took it not as an act of justice on the part of his pcopleri-they were only bound by their covenantv-but as an expression of their affection and Christian liberality. He took it for'‘granted, that such a, gift, from such a\source, was not perilous, for he hoped it came from those who loved the plain \ruth, and was meant to encourage the pastor to bo faithful iu correcting such defects of his people as might yet remain. The meeting was then dismissed. This was a deserved tributeto a faith ful and laborious pastor, who has main tained by the blessing of God, a down town church, in a lively, working and prosperous condition up to the present time, in spite of powerful tendencies on the part of the population to remote parts of the city. Dr. Brainerd has just cause for gratification that his work is recognized, not only in the great coun cils of the denomination, but in the city and congregation with which he is so closely and honorably identified. Nor have his eminent services as a man of earnest, outspoken, and unwavering loyalty, in this time of national trial, been overlooked in this demonstration. AMEEICIAN SUNDAY-SOHOOL UNION. At the Jimo>meeting of the Board of Managers, liev. L. P. Day was commis sioned to labor in Michigan, Eov. E. Underwood for Illinois, Dr. Harlan for Pennsylvania, and two theological stu dents for the summer. The Missiona ries report for the month of May, 221 new schools organized, into which they gathered 8906 scholars. They visited and assisted by donations of books or otherwise, 355 other schools containing 20055 scholars. They made 321 differ ent donations to poor schools of the So ciety’s excellent publications, visited 2471 families, and distributed 830 Bibles and Testaments. Among the special grants made by the Board, are setts of books for the Sanitary fair in Philadelphia and St. Louis—library'for contrabands at j Washington, D. C., also .for freedmen at ■Beaufort, S. o.—seven setts monthly series for soldiers at New Orleans. Many appeals for grants were read, which were laid over from want of funds. The Society asks the attention of the Church to the growing domiind for its publications. The work of organiza tion in the South goes prosperously for ward —tho’ there is some interruption. From Kentucky, one missionary writes: Jt Guerillas are multiplying. I have to walk to all my appointments—earny no money—leave my watch at home, wear cheap clothes—and when I 'meet them, surrender by raising my right hand treat them as gentlemen, and submit to have my pockets picked, ko., Ac. Still I am organizing new schools constantly. Last Sabbath I held four mootings, and organized a county convention.” The Eeceipts for Mission work for the month of May werq $5,929.80.

Another person who has long identified with this Presbytery was also absent. It was announced that the long and useful life of the Rev. Peter Kan ouse had terminated in a calm and peaceful death.

S. N. A, 12ino. Pamphlet. OPINIONS OF TME PRESS. Among the many publications from the press this is emineaUv timely yetting out with the idea that the present calamities upon our country are the just judg ments of God for our national Fins, it faithfully proceeds to show the prominent ways by which, as a natiou, we have sinned, viz:—By adopting a National Constitution which makes.no foimal recognition of God; by not re garding as a nation civil government as an ordinance 01 God; by disregarding the law of God in relation to the moral character of our civil rulers; and by maintaining slavery, and refusing to try it by the word of God.. These are its leading positions, and they are generally well maintained. We would rejoice to see this pam phlet have a wide circulation.— Christian Instructor. It is a sound, earnest, patriotic plea for national re-, ligion and national righteousness, and it should be read andciicuiatod over the land by the hundred thousand. What our nation needs now, more than increased forces “or able generals, is a reverem recognition of the author ity, sovereignty, and holiness of Jehovah of Hoots.— N. Y. Evangelist. • . A vigorous and earnest appeal for national repentance and amendment.- We are relreshed in turning from JBißhop Hopkins’ sophistical arguments to the straight forward declaration of the pamphlet— 1 “ There is. no small measure of guilt incurred by justifying slavery from the Bible, and at the same time retiming 10 try our slavery by the Bi bl ef'—Amer lean P l / esbyterian. It is pious and patriotic, and has, in opposition to its long-winded rival [“Hopkins on Slavery"], the rather important advantage of truth. —The LutJxeran. A lucid, faithful, earnest, honest tract, exactly suited to our national exigency. It is definite in its statements, pu»s its finger on the sms, tho aetual sins of the land, and exhibits the principles on which Jehovah deals with nations. The author, at page 51, makes sad havoc with the popular fallacy, that because the Hebrews had slavery, therefore Southern slavery was legitimate.— Presbyterian Standard “The Book for the Nation "is the title of an earnest and forcible pamphlet, in which the author snows that God is* not merely chastizing, but punishing us tor our national sins.— Presbyterian. %* Sent by mail, post-paid, on receipt of the price.

This class of Bitters has caused and will continue to cause, as long as they can be sold, hundreds to die the death of the drunkard. By their use the system is kept continually under the influence of . alcoholic stimulants of the worst Hnd, t}U de&irefoi liquor, is created andkopt up, arid the result is all the horrors attendant upon a drunkard's life and death.
