iSmtiftmimt. FROM OUR ROCHESTER CORRESPONDENT DEATH OF FATHER WALDO. This event has come at last; and such a death, and such a funeral can hardly be witnessed once in a century. Other men have lived as long, but wo doubt if another on this continent has retained his faculties and his activity so well. Ecv. Daniel Waldo was born in Scot land, Windham Co., Ct., on the 10th day of Soptombcr, 1762. He died in Syra cuse, Hew" York, on the BOth day of July, 1861; thus lacking one month and eleven days of being -102 years of age. And even at this extreme old ago he did not die by natural decay, or by the weaving out of bis powers; but as though he could not shuffle off this mor tal coil by any other means he must needs fall down stairs, several steps, at least; and though he broke no bones, and suffered no marked contusion, yet the shock was so great, added to the weight of so many years, that he gradu ally sunk under it, and in a week or ten days after this event, his eyes were peacefully closed in death. __ It will bo romombered that he wont down to Albany, travelled alone, and preached acceptably in Bev. Dr. Spraguo’s pulpit, after he was one hundred years old. Ho passed a few days at Clifton, and preached in tho chapel of the Water Cure when he was one hundred and one years of age. He seemed then to pos sess his faculties entire; was social, playful, full of anecdote, and delighted all by his witticisms and stories; as well as by his grave conversation and gen tlemanly bearing. He was at that time a model of politeness and agreoableness: and so continued, in the possession of his mind, until the day of his death —his sight alone having failed him. His funeral was attended, in the Ply mouth Church, Syracuse, on Tuesday of the, present week. ',!hc funeral sermon was preached by Bev. Dr Sprague, of Albany, and a large number of clergy men from Syracuse and the surrounding region were in attendance. Tho open ing prayor was offered by Bov.'William Ludlow, of Oswego; and the closing prayer by Bev. Mr. Eeid, of Syracuse. The sermon, we need hardly say, was a model for such an occasion. The text was, Gen. v. 27: “And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundiaui, and sKtysßiirer-yvw»-., diad.” The order of thought was; first, reasons why some men are spared to extreme old ago—a few reasons were briefly given— then followed an exceedingly graphic and interesting sketch of the life of Mr. Waldo; then a brief summary of his character; and lastly, a closing appeal of instruction and admonition to those present. All were deeply interested, and none unmoved, wo judge, as the •closing words dropped from the speak er’s lips. We will give a few incidents of Mr. Waldo’s life. He was one of thirteen children, eleven of whom lived to be heads of families. He was horn of Christian parents, on the farm which was originally settled by his grandfather, and which still remains in possession of tho family. At the ago of sixteen he was drafted for one month’s service in the war of the Eevolution, t'o repel the invasion of Connecticut; and after his timo was out enlisted for tho rest of tho struggle. Being taken prisoner, he was sont to tho famous “ Sugar House,” in Now York, the Libby of those days. After tlio war was over, ho fitted for college with the Eev. Dr. Backus, of Somors, Ct., and graduated at Yale in 1788, then twenty-six years of ago. A part of the time he had for his room mate the afterward colobrated Jeremiah Mason,.and was associated with him in a foronsic dispute at their graduation. He studied theology under the celebra ted Dr. Hart, of Preston, Ct., and was licensed to preach by the Windham County Association. In the exercise of his ministry, he preached, for longer or shorter periods, in Bristol, Cornwall, West Hartford, West Suffield, (where he was ordained, in 1792,) in Westchester and Salem—all in Connecticut. Ho afterward passed some little time in Andover, Mass., preached two years in Cambridgeport, then parsed nine years in Bhode Island, mostly in promoting the causo of educa tion. In 1823, when he was Bixty-onc years of age, he returned to Connecticut, and settled in Exeter, where he spent twelve years, laboring on a salary of $BOO. After this he preached for a time in Hanover, and in Eastbury Ct., and then, at seventy-three years of age, came out into thill state, and preached for two years at Bose Valley ; preached also at Wolcott and some other places, and last, as stated supply, at Victory; which brings us down to 1836, whbn he was 84 years old. 1 - The rest of his life was passed in the family of his son, Bov. E. B. Waldo, of Syracuse. In 1856, it will be recollected, when ho was 04 years of age, he was made Chaplain of tho House of Boprcsenta tivos, and re-elected to the same office in 1859, the oldest man, we suppose, who ever officiated in that capacity. He was, at the time of his death, the oldest graduate of Yalo College; and the oldest minister, it is supposed in tho United States. Dr. Sprague first met him in tho winter of 1810-11, and from that time they have been friends. Mr. Waldo, ever since he was 90 years of ase, has been accustomed to make an annual visit at the house of his distin guished friend, in Albany. In speaking of his character, tho preacher describes him as rather sober than brilliant; but of keen wit, quiet and unostentatious manners, capacious and retentive memory, full of fact and anecdote, good company, with great cheerfulness and equanimity of temper, candid and lenient in bis judgment of others, Especially interested in tho young, happy in social life, very felicitous and entertaining as a letter writer, and in teresting and instructive as a preacher. And finaHy, as he fought for our liberties in 1788, he„ took a deep interest in' the preservation of them in 1864. He waß a real patriot and philanthropist, pray ing to the last, as he prayed while chaplain in Congress, for the utter ex tinction of slavery, and the preservation of our country one and inseparable to the end of time. He looked forward with confidence to the utter overthrew of the rebellion, and the continued , pros perity and tho perpetuity of this glori ous Union. But better than all, he lived and died a consistent, cheerful, happy Christian; and bo he rests from his labors, and his works do follow him. THE FAST IN ROCHESTER Unfortunately this day came at a time when tho pastors were all absent. Their presence and efforts would have added much to the solemnity and inter est of tho occasion. And yet the day was very gcnei’ally observed. Stores and business places were closed, and largo numbers were assembled, morning and afternoon, in the sanctuaries for worship.. A deep' solemnity seemed to pervade these assemblies, fervent prayor was offered, and many expressed the conviction that our public fasts have seldom been so well observed. We hope it may be tbo beginning of bettor things for our nation. . Tint the marked feature of tho day was tho sermon of B'ev'. '-DrrTtODtnson" on tho present aspect of-public affairs, and the duty of the hour. Ho preached in tho morning in tho Second Baptist Church, the First uniting in tho service; and in the afternoon, by special request, repeated, substantially, the same dis course in tho Central Presbyterian Church, the whole city, we had almost said, being in attendance. The house was growded to its utmost capacity, and it would be difficult to get into any one assembly a larger number of the leading minds of Eochestcr than wore found there at that timo. And such a discourse! It was pro found in thought, rich in illustration, dignified and manly in expression, but terribly earnest, eloquent and impas sioned in the delivery. Dr. Bobinson was formerly quite conservative in his sontiments, has even defended slavery in former years, as he acknowledged; but the war has wrought wondrouß changes on his mind. He n,ow goes, with all his might, for the utter extinc tion of slavery, the thorough, relentless prosecution of the war until every ves tige of the rebellion has disappeared, and for the strengthening of the central government until such another shall be forever impossible. We are a nation, or we are nothing. • Among the objects intondod by Provi dence in the war, the following were enumerated: 1. To clear up and settle the great principles of righteousness in which the government was founded, especially the fact that God has created all men free and equal. “ Jefferson meant all men, when he wrote the Declaration of Inde pendence." And it is on this principle alone that we have any right to be a nation. 2. The war is fusing together the dif ferent peoples congregated on these shores, so that we may be a nation. It was thus thj different tribes of ancient Briton were melted into one by the fires of their long intestine wars. And 3. The war is to put an end to slavery. The speaker sincerely hoped it would not cease until that grand con summation was realized. Hot that the. war was intended for that, or is prosecuted for that; but it puts that most desirable object within our reach; it makes it necessary in fact to our complete success in put ting down the rebellion, and guarding against another; and greater fools could not be found upon the face of the earth, than we should be, if we did not grasp bo great a good, which, the mad PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 11, 1864. ness of our enemies has put within our reach. The eloquent preacher sternly rebuk ed the “ blatant clamors” of some fo.r peace. There is do peace possible until the rebels lay down their arms ; then receive back tho people, and ‘-'let the leaders swine.” This discourse was about one hour and a half long, delivered, in the preach er’s usual stylo, without notes; and was listened to by the vast assembly with breathless interest to the close. It was a rare treat to hear it, although it was doubtless strong meat to gome who sat in that audience. But those aro the sentiments which must prevail, or our country is ruined. ’ Genesee. Rochester, July 30, 1864. EMIGRATION TO DELAWARE. Dear Bro. Mears : —The emigration enterprise, inaugurated a year ago un der the auspices of the Delaware Im provement Association, is still prosper ing ; tho northern colonies thriving, and the call for land constantly increasing. Among the inducements to emigration are cheapness of land and profitableness of culturo. Cultivated land can be bought for from fifteen to thirty dollars per aero, from one to three miles from railroad depot, and within eighty miles of Philadelphia. , The most profitable crop is the poach, trees yielding annu ally a hundred dollars per acre, for twenty years. I would adviso persons to go now in peach time, that they may see how in this way large fortunes are rapidly accumulated. crop this year, like the last, is a good one. But we wish those who will not be governed entirely by pecuniary consid erations. The enterprise is intended to be a Christian one, and to favor free in stitutions, and to aid in this, a Christian Emigration Union is in process of or ganization, which will give facilities for planting tho church and school on evan gelical and free principles, as the great regenerating element of tho South, and tho world. M. W. Baldwin, Esq., of your city, made tho first contribution of seventy-five dollars toward this organi zation. The Northern element already introduced into Delaware, will do much toward giving it a free and loyal Legis lature at the coming election, and mak ing it a free State. And in this whole movement wo design that Christianity and freedom should join hands. < Yisitorß may get a reduction of fare from President Felton ;at Philadelphia Depot, and will receive courteous atten tion by calling on Messrs. Osmond & Bryant, Canterbury, Del., or A. T. Johnson, Milford, Del. Yours, L. C. Lockwood. The Now York Observer reports the subjoined request which came in to the Fulton Street Daily Prayer Meeting, to gether with the remarks following it : “ Massachusetts is suffering for rain. Her fields and hills are driod up. Her woods are on fire. Her crops are dying. Brethren, pray for us. Signed Massachusetts.” A brother made some remarks and followed them with prayer. He said, we are an unbelieving and prayerloss people. The spirit of prayer is dying out of the churches. He wondered how many there were in Massachusetts, or in any State, who had gone into their closets that morning and 'prayed for rain, with any sort of confidence that their prayers would be answered. I find it surprising, said the speaker, as I become acquainted with the condition of the churches, to find how much fam ily prayer is neglected; and when family prayer is neglected, I am almost certain that closet prayer will be. Sometimes whole churches will be found with very little prayer. A BRIE! INTERVIEW WITH LIEUT GENERAL SOOTT. Whilst returning home, down the Hudson, last Friday, (the. stb.inst.,) the Mary Powell stopping, as usual at West Point, took on board our old hero, Lieut-General Scott. From the upper deck I observed him standing on the pier waiting to embark, and was gratified to notice how full and fair was his face and how firm his step. He was dressed in citizens garb, wearing a black beaver hat and long cloth cloak. Captain Anderson gave [him. his arm and carefully brought him pn board. So much was I interestedin the Gene ral’s movements, that I soon reconnoi tered his position and found, him seated and reading in the ladies’ saloon, but, after a while, observing him seated out side, on the lower deck and unoccupied, I determined to have the pleasure of addressing him. Accordingly, I ap proached and offered him my hand, which he at once grasped, at the same time, paying my compliments. In answer to his inquiry, I made my self known as a clergyman of Philadel phia. Of what denomination?" said he; Of the Presbyterian Church, 1 re plied I “I feel great pleasure” he TOO TRUE. promptly said, “in taking you by the hand.” Asking after his health, he an swered, “For one of my years, I am very well, lam seventy-nine years old.” I hope, I replied, you will live to see an end of our .troubles. “ I hope so,” he answered, “ I wish to see a restoration of tho Union.” You may see it, I said, and not have to live long either. Do you feel hopeful ? “ I do,” he firmly answered, “ I do.” God bless you, I said, and with another .warm pressure, with much emotion, I retired. W. W. T. FOREIGN RELIGIOUS ITEMS [2 translated for our Columns.'} WHAT THE SPANISH MARTYRS ARE DOING. Matamoros and his associates, when their imprisonment was turned into exile about a year ago, found refuge princi pally in Prance. Fourteen of them—the larger part,fled to Bordeaux, where work was found for the adults and schools for the young, and a comfortable position enjoyed by all. The germ of a Spanish Protestant Church is thuß introduced among a Catholic community, contain ing also a Spanish element, which, it is hoped, may bo favorably affected by this example. An evangelist will speed ily be sent to labour among them. Another exile, named Trigo, a promi nent associate of Matamoros, is settled as an Evangelist in Oran, Algiers, a town one-half of whose population is Spanish. Another, a youth of 22, named Carasco from Malaga, of a very zealous spirit and an educated man, has been sont to Geneva to study theology. But the most important work in which the exiles are engaged and to which Matamoros himself has been as signed, is of the nature of a comprehen sive and far-reaching Christian revenge upon their persecuting country. Mata moros and Nogaret, a French pastor at Bayonne, with whom the illustrious exile is Btaying, are in communication with the Paris Committee for the succor of the Spanish exiles, upon the estab lishment at Bayonne, of an Evangelical School or College, in which young Spaniards of piety may be prepared by scientific and theological studies for the work of the gospel in Spain, whenever Providence shall open the door. A costly undertaking, yet one which, in view of the political struggles taking place in that country, is recommended by the plainest dictates of Christian prudence. Thus, should the committee, with Matamoros and the Bayonne/pas tor, prove successful in their enteprise, the wonderful provision for the evange lization of Italy which the Waldenses proved to be, —all ready for action the moment divine Providence opened the way—will, in some measure, be paral leled in the-oaso-of Spain.' It would be a noble revenge for Matamoros, one day to come back to the scenos of his mar tyrdom, and there, with his train of dis ciplined preachers, unmolested, to pro claim the very gospel which intolerant Spain sought to crush and expel in his person from her borders. Changes quite as remarkable in the history of Christianity have occurred, Let us pray for the success of the Evangelical Training School at Bayonne and for the speedy opening of Spain to the gospel. Montalembert has to go to Home to defend or apologize to the papal College for the noble words spoken by him in defence of religious liberty at the Mech lin Council of Catholics, a year ago. His speech has been condemned as he retical by the Commission on the Index. Vain was the mediation of the minister of Belgium, Desehamps, who wrote un jler Montalembert’s inspiration, to the Pope. Nothing could break the force of the ultra-montane denunciations. .Car dinal Antonelli responded courteously, but declared that the Pope could pro nounce no opinion, without the fullest examination, upon Montalembert’s pro- Eosal —the rejuvenation of Catholicism y accepting the principles of freedom and democracy. The Monde, the ultra montane journal of Paris, in an article upon the subject Says: Only the truth can have the right to freedom, and as Catholicism alone is the truth, it alone can enjoy and claim all rights and all liberties. The Presbyterian Form or Govern ment in Prussia. —We have already in formed our readers of the satisfactory working of the Presbyterian system so far as introduced into the Evangelical Church of Prussia. The first meeting of organized Synodical bodies, at the call and under the supervision of the Su perior Court of the Evangelical Church of Prussia, (Moangelischer Ober-Kirchen rath) took place, we think, about a year ago. The report of the Consistory of Keenigsberg says, that the leaders and the mass of the lay and clerical mem bers of the Synods of that district, at these initial assemblies, showed a true insight into their work and performed it with enlightened zeal and earnestness. True, some crude and rash view, were put forth by a fanatical class, who re gard themselves as representatives of modern Protestantism, who would turn the church into the similitude of a po litical system, and would seek, in modern culture and not in the gospel, the means of renewal. Their opinions were allow ed untrammeled expression,, with no other result, however, than to expose their untenable nature, and the insignfi eant number of their adherents among the substantial representatives of the provincial church. On the other hand, the great majority of the members of all the Synods plainly saw it to bo the object of these meetings, to achieve the union and organic affiliation of the pri mary elements of the church, for a more vigorous resistance to the dangers threat ening it from every side ; for the awak ening of the life of faith in the churches where it slumbered; and for supplying the hunger and thirst of the spirit I wherever it existed; and these objects they greatly sought to promote. Difficulties in the way of summoning the Synods in all the eastern provincial churches seem still to remain. Their precise nat. a wc do not know. Mean while, we trJ lst the Presbyterian form of government will be left without any more civil support or interference than is needful to give it a fair start, and- that its conservative tendencies may rally all the true friends of the gospel and of purity of discipline around its standard. We rejoice that thus far it seems able, in the regular course of its operations, to control the radical elements in Ger many that were hoping to rationalize secularize it. To this we may add, that the First General Synod of the churches of the Augsburg and Helvetie (Swiss) Confes sions in the Germano-Slavic countries of Austria, was called to meet in Vienna on the 22d of last May. Hermannsbijrg, the scene of the good Pastor Harms’ parbehial and missionary operations, has now two Mission Houses, an old and a new. The new was occu pied last fall, and the old was put in tenantable order again. In each, there are 24 pupils, so that Pastor Harms - has now 48 persons in preparation and can every two years send twice twelve missionaries to the heathen; a great ad vance. It has all gone forward in per fect quiet, no noise has been made about it; the Missionsblatt —Pastor Harms' paper—says not a word of it, but the matter is- too important to be passed over in entire silence; —a German Mis sion institute with nearly half a hun dred pupils. The Evangelical Society of France has published the first and second quar terly report for its 31st year. Its ope rations have been greatly enlarged through the liberality of one of its members, who, at his own cost, supports evangelists in eighteen departments, under the control of the Society. The entire field embraces twenty-five de partments. Much of an encouraging character is announced from various stations, especially from Paris. In the Faubourg du Temple the Society is reap ing what it sowed "thirty years ago. The church has doubled in size in two years. The liberality of these new Protestants is great. For example, a woman who supports herself by the labour of her hands, contributes three francs a month to the society, and hopes to do still more when relieved of the necessity of paying her son’s substitute in the army. In the Faubourg St. An toine, the praying room and schools are to'o small. In the Departments, persons are frequently met with who have become Protestants by the simple reading of the Bible. Yet a vast work remains to be done. It is all too little for a popu lation of thirty-eight millions, part sunk in the deepest ignorance, part in utter unbelief and part in gross superstition. There are 87,000 places where the true gospel is not preached, and where the people are not seldom as little acquaint ed with the saving truths of Christian ity as the Hindoos and the Chinese. What a great blessing would France as a Christian nation be to the world! Those who in other countries contribute to the work of the Evangelical Society, labour for the whole of Europe. The Danubian Principalities nave been j at various times the refuge of the per secuted from Russia and Hungary. Their number is estimated to reach 20,800 at least. For the Protestants of Wallachia there ex isted as lately as 1859 but one church edifice and organization, that of Bucha rest. The established church of Prussia and the Evangelical Church of Hungary have taken ah interest in these refugees. In the latter church One man especially deserves to be mentioned in this connec tion. In the year 1859, the pastor and professor of Theology, Czelder, haying had his attention called to the spiritual destitution of his countrymen and fel low-believers, abandoned his country, his incomes, his honors and dignities, to devote himself with the most self-sacri ficing love, to the hard task of going after these scattered brethren and gath ering them into churches. He has now spent four years in ceaseless activity, traversing the whole country back and forth, in the most fatiguing foot-jour neys, amid the greatest privations, where he often lacked the necessaries of life, and suffered hunger, being without any regular salary and all without loss or abatement of zeal for his object. At one time he lived for twenty days on bread and water, to facilitate the pur chase of means for building a school house. By such labours he has suc ceeded in founding four churches in so many different towns; namely: Pitischti, Phlogischti, Szoskiel, and Galatz, all of which have their Sunday and weekday schools, and two of them a church and a pastor. . In the other two, divine ser vice is held, and in Phlogischti, he has appropriated 25 ducats, the proceeds of the sale of a book he published, to the commencement of a school-house with a residence for a teacher and pastor, hoping that the Lord will send the means to complete the work. Such .is the testimony of the Missionary Klein heim, who labours among the Jews of the Principalities, and a noble illustra tion it is of that soldier-like devotion to the Master’s cause which Paul inculcates upon Timothy; 2d Epistle 2, 8. The Supply of Momish Priests in France, according to the Bulletin de VAssociation de St. Francois de Sales of Paris, is de plorably inadequate. A recent number of this Papist journal asserts that while Paris in 1789 with a population of but 500,000 contained ten thousand clergy and monks, to-day with a population of 1,900,000, it has but 900 priests and con tains parishes of 30—40,000 souls with but a single church and three or four priests. For the capital alone, there are needed a thousand good clergymen and one hundred churches more. The same unsatisfactory state of things pre- in many dioceses of France. In one,twenty-five priests died last year,and only five could be found to lake their place. In another, but a single student passed from the lower to a higher Semi nary ; again, in the philosophical and theological seminary, which should con tain 150 pupils, but 35 were in atten dance. In another place, at one of the ordination services but one, at the next only one again, and at the last, only three priests received the higher conse cration. Somewhere else, a bishop with tears in his eyes complains to his assem bled clergy, that he knows not what to do, and that. from lack of ministerial force, he is unable to meet the most pressing wants of his diocese. Pro vinces, that formerly had an excess of priests and could supply the deficiencies of others,—such as Auvergne, Norman dy and others, have now too few supplies for their own need, and are obliged to refuse the requests of others for a sup ply. These are significant indications of the real position of the Romish church in France. Italy witnesses a sad strife between different portions of the body recognized by the mass of the people' as the Pro testant church. The Free Church of Italy, composed entirely of natives and numbering the distinguished DeSanotis, Francesco Madiai, &c., among its mem bers, is controlled by a turbulent party of Darbyites, who abuse the Waldenses by speech and pen sis mere formalists and even as worse than the Papists. The union prayer meetings of the first of the year, which have been made a monthly service, and have been attended by a few of the Free church people, and a proposal to j oin in founding a branch of the Evangelical alliance in Italy, have brought the bigotry of these turbulent people to its culmination. Two of the the three Free churches of Florence have cut loose from the Darbyites, adopt ed an excellent creed and pronounced for the Evangelical Alliance. On the first Thursday of every month they unite with the "Waldenses in worship. DeSanctis, Gaultieri and Madiai appear to participate in this movement. The rest still carry on the war with undi minished violence. Deaths op Ministers.— Father Wal do has at last received his translation. Says the New York Observer :: Our vene rable friend, the Rev. Daniel Waldo, died at Syracuse, N. Y., on Saturday last, being nearly 102 years old. Dr. Sprague of Albany, was to preach at his funeral at Syracuse on Tuesday. The Rev. Samuel Pelton, of the Pres bytery of Hudson, died at his residence at Monticello, N. Y., on the 10th. He was in the eighty-eigth year of his age, and died suddenly from a stroke of apo pb&y. Rev. Jonathan Cogswell, a member of the Presbytery of New Brunswick, N. J., on Monday morning, Aug. Ist, in the 82d year of his age. A correspondent of the Presbyterian announces the death, in the hospital at Memphis, Tenn., July 10, of Rev. James W. McKean, of Hopkinton, lowa, son of Rev. J. McKean, of Scotch Grove. lowa. He was a graduate of Jefferson, College, class of 1859, and of the West ern Theological Seminary, class 1862. Having spent about a year as an evan gelist, in the Lake Superior region, he more recently engaged as Principal of the Hopkinton Synodical Academy; and when its male students enlisted in the hundred day service, electing him as captain, he went with them in that capacity, though his preference was for the duties of a chaplaincy. Taken ill in camp, he was removed to the hospital, where his brief though useful career soon terminated in deqth. We see also nnnounced the death of Rev. Wm. R. Sim, of the Presbytery of Saline, at Golconda, 111., and Rev. David E. Cur tis, of the Presbytery of Potosi, at Farm ington, Mo. ' EFFECTS OF SLAVERY OF THE POOE . WHITES. “ You over-estimate the wrongs of the slave,” we used to be told: “his con dition is vastly better than the poor whites of the South.” This is far enough from true, all things considered, but so far as the making up of the ac count against slavery is concerned, wc should have no objection to accepting it as it stands. It iB slavery which makes those poor whites what they are, shiftless and semi-barbarized, and yet too proud to take the only means for self-elevation. Witness the following: “ Said a gentleman to a boy of this class: ‘My son would you like to go to school, and learn to read and write V ‘Soon as not,’ answered the boy ‘Would’nt you like to learn a trade, work and make some money ?' the gen tleman again asked. The boy looked at his interrogator with utter scorn at the idea of work, and with an air of defi ance, and with a strong emphasis, said ‘l’m white.’” . FBEEDMEH’S BOARD.
