plOt i tient words found prompt response in ti applause of the audience. lie spoke his approval of the policy sug go4ed by the prudential committee in mak ing the necessary appropriations at the onset, and urged that the Lord's treasury . should receive the first fruits, trusting that the Mi n or necessaries of his people will be provi ded for. 'He spoke of the condition of the country, .as affecting the interests of the board, and his patriotic utterances brought frequent applause from his hearers. He was interrupted by the announcement that a donation of $lO was just received from a soldier at the front, and turned the inci dent,to good effect in praising the spirit of the poor to contribute their mite to the trea sury of the Lord. He expressed his confi dence in the idea that before the next meet ing of the board the christian church .would rejoice to give a thank offering for a restored and regenerated country. Ile gave a glow ing picture of the present state of military operations, and every allusion to the heroes who are doing the work was received with applause. He believed that the. end was near, and tlint:a restored.country would fur. nish the meanslfor, still more extended mis sionary.operations..; He closed with en allu sion,to, the suggestion which had been made of, holding a future meeting of the board in San Francisco,' and in the name of the peo ple California; among whom he soon expects to benumberedi he extends an invi-, tation to the board to igo there, and promised a warm welcome and liberal reward. The session was closed by singing the Doxology. Adjourned to 8 1-4 A. M., tomor row. Missionaries' Meeting in Washburn Hall. • Over fifty returned foreign missiona ries, including their wires and children and the widows of msssionaries met in Washburn Hall this morning at eight o'clock. Rev. Mr. Bingham, formerly of. the Sandwich Is lands presided, and speeches of about three minutes each were made by Rev. Messrs Riggs' from the Dacotah Indians, Webb of India, Ireland of South Africa, Doolittle of China and White of Western Asia, They referred to the sorrows and the joys of mi.s. sionary life, and appealed to their hearers for their, prayers in behalf of the great work in the countries where they - had labored—which they represented as prospering largely, The mothers' meeting in Washburn Hall, at 4 P. M„ was one of the most interestino , gatherings connected with the meeting of th; board. It was composed of mothers and.pas tors' wives, and the exercises were.entirely in the hands of the ladies. The hall was filled to its utmost capacity, rnany.beintr obliged to go away for want of room. The nieeting was • opened by Mrs. Charles Washburn of this city and Mrs: Bowker of East Boston-lecb the as sembly in prayer, after which Mrs.' Warren of Boston made a statement of the - work and success of the Union Maternal Association of Boston. This Association is much prized by those who are aware of its influence,' and sim ilar organizations are urged in every church.: The association, besides its central meeting snperintends ten branch mission in the city among the poor, where meetings are held weekly, to which mothers and others desir ing counsel and advice are welcome. They are conducted by ladies of education and ability, and are esteemed among the most useful agencies in the hands of the church. Interesting remarks were made by Mrs. Dr. Anderson of Boston, and Mrs. Davis of Westfield, and a lady from Montreal gave an interesting report of the Maternal association in that city. _Prayer was offered by Mrs. I. P. Warren and Mrs Albert Bowker of Boston, and others, and the meeting was much en joyed and was Considered to have been among the most useful and practical of the session. A large meeting was held in Union church in the evening, at which Dr. Palmer of , bany presided, and with Rev. J. P. Gulliver of Norwich, and Rev. Mr. Webb, from the Madura missiori,'addresSea the people. FOURTH DAY The closing exercises of the meeting of the Board took place at 81- o'clock in the presence of a very large audience. The:ex tremely early hour detained many of our citizens who desired to attend, but a large proportion of the strangers from abroad were present. The meeting was opened with prayer by Rev. Dr. Hawes of New llaven, who in appropriate and earnest words ren dered thanks for the past prosperity and present prospects of the board—after which the audience joined in singing "All hail the power of Jesus name." to " Coronation." The effect was grand- The intense spmpathy and feeling, incident to the affecting farewells so soon to be said which prevaded the assembly, gave a thrill and tone to the exercise such as is rarely experienced. Rev. Mr. Treat announced that, since yes terday, a lady from Hartford had made a donation of $lOOO, a gentleman from Roch ester $lOOO, and through Rev. Dr. Wood a friend of the cause $l.OOO, toward $600,000 to be raised during the year. This an nouncement was received with applause. Rev. Mr. Doane, from the Alicror.esian mission, spoke. of the pressure which is brought to bear upon returned mfssionaries to induce them to retire from active labor and leave the "obnitiletion of their work to others, and of the L desire that so many of them have to join in the struggle for the detente of the . fi:fig, as being almost too strong to resist.. lie said that notwithstand ing tilt se inducement's to-remain - at home, the' attractions of the mission . field were stronger. The little church, the inquiring natives, the memories of the past and the glorious hopes of the future call, loudly for us' to come back, and ,the graves of, the dear ones we nave left in heathen lands call to us to return and labor for the-eause in Whihh they have surrendered ,their dives: , asked the.enoouragement and kied prayers of the churches of America for' their ;pros perity and success in'the ardnoui and self denying work. • ' Rev. Mr. Jessup of Syria said that In) felt differently.; that he had no desire to 'stay, no inducements to call him to, leave his' work. The native churches and brethren call him to return, and he is glad to go. He has given himself to Syria, and he hopes to live and die there. He spoke of thopros perous condition of his mission, and the ; opening which is just presenting itself for missionary labor all through the east Ile spoke of the many pleasures of his .work,' the eager minds waiting for truth, and the children learning to sing the hymns of ; Jesus, and asked the prayers of Christians that his mission might be sustained and "'Prospered. He gave a sample of the songs of' the.Byrian children; the hymn, "Just as:l am, without one plea," set to the Turk iskinational air, which is universally known, and now sting by thousands of children to. the`'ivords " 01 Lae* of God, I come!! He "closed with an allusion to his aged father, formerly vice president of the Board, whoie : dedlining years forbid his ever -ming ling in like scenes on earth; Which left hardly a eye in the assembly. • Rev. Dr.-flopkinvpresidentof the Board, exptessad theirxgratitude to. be people of Worcester for the hospitality and ,lcipsimiss which had so generously been tendered dur ing the meeting. He alluded to the cause in which the Board was engaged, and con sidered that whatever sacrifices had been tnade, had been given to Christ for the ad vancement of his cause. Rev. Dr. Brainerd of Philadelphia, led the assembly in prayer; asking that. God might reward the people of Worcester for their kindnesS in sending a speedy revival of 'r ligion to bliss and strengthen the' 'churches of the city. Rev. Dr. Sweester of Worcester spoke in behalf of the churches of Worcester, thank ihg the Board for the act of Christian kind ness which had just been manifested. He spoke of the anxiety which had pervaded the churches in anticipation of the meeting, and hoped that the occasion might result in an increase of faith and devotion to the cause of Christ, and that the churches might find that they and not the,board were debt ors for good gained from the meeting of, the Board. He referred to the former meetings of the Board in the city, in 1811, when one Parlor .was sufficient for their business, and one congregation in the South church was all the outward display of strength the Board could boast. He contrasted that oc casion with the present, when no building in any city could receive the crowd. At its first meeting the appropriation was $999.52; and the second meeting here in 1844 it was about $250,000 i and now at this meeting it has increased to $600,000. He.spoke of the eagerness with which 'the cause 'Of the Board was watched by the missionaries in the field, asking only that they might be furnished with means to remain at their posts, and continue their labors for the sal vation of the heathen. He spoke of the great numbers who at tended the meeting, and knew that no city could•entertain the crowd without much so- licitude and anxiety, but he urged that no efforts be made to repress the interest. He believed that the meetings were instrumen tal in doing great good, and were not con sidered a burden but a blessing. He paid a fitting tribute to the women of the church, saying that to them belonged much of the praise and credit for the success of the so ciety. He spoke of the true uses of life, as being its devotion, and its surrender if nec essary for the good of others, and that such a meeting as-this was looked upon from all quarters of the world as a great "source of good and blessing. The labor of entertain ment was not worth a thought. He closed with the assurance of his belief that the good results left from the meeting of the Board would far surpass all that they could carry away. The audience joined in sing ing, " Blessed be the tie that binds." Re'v. Dr. Walter Clarke, of Buffalo, from the committee on the Turkish mission, to whom was recommitted the resolutions con-` c4hing the unwarrantable action of the Turkish government in seizing Protestant converts, closing -.Bible houses, and other wise unwarrantably interfering with the work of missions in that country, reported the series with an additional resolution, to meet the views of those who laSt evening objected to them. The first three resolu tions recite the factS of which the board complained, and their concluSions in view of the facts are embodied in the two last as follows PERSECUTION IN TURKEY. 4th.—" Resolved, that inasmuch as the just and wise policy of notinterfering in the internal government of other nations and empires has always been observed by the government of the United States, the duty of our government towards our missions ex tends no further than the, protectipn of our missionaries as American citizens, against all outrages on their persons, their property, or their just liberty of speech or,' worship, and having performed that duty efficiently and promptly by the agency of our diplo matic representative at Constantinople, nei-• Cher the President nor Congress can be in voked.to interfere otherwisOhan by a pure ly ronril influence, for the protection of Turkish subjects converted from the faith of Mohamedanisra to the Christian faith." sth—" Resolved, that mindful of the no ble position which in former days the gov ernment of Great Britain has held on the question of universal freedom for faith and worship, and remembering especially the distinguished part which Lord Stratford De Redcliffe, Her Majesty's then ambassador to the Porte, performed in preserving that charter of Turkish liberty, the' Efatti Ham ayoun,' this board look with confidence to the government of Great Britain, belieVing that Her Majesty's advisers in this behalf *trill not fail to eatimate the magnitude of the many interests involved in the pending issue; bearing as it does upon the wellbeing of the powerful Christian races residing with in the empire; the liberties and the desti nies of the growing Protestant communities; to say nothing of the millions of Moslems to whom inquiry, and conviction, and uitimate eVangeliza.tioia are imiiitable as - the course Of thought, and the purpose of promise of the Almighty; the influence of the right de cision of this question upon the progress of Christianity in morning time,: and among many nations; calling to mind also the honorable part- which the people of Great Britain have takep in every great movement of modern civilization ; will, in accordance with the immemorial• policy of the 'British government., and with its recognized position as the protector of the native Protestant population in the Turkish empire, interpose such remonstrances,and, if need be, such demands also,, as shall, secure to the perse cuted subjects of the Turkish government, and to all who live or shall' hereafter live under the Turkish rule, present and, per spective, freedon:v from exile, or bonds, or molestation, or censure, on account of their religious faith, or any reasonable expression 9f it before others, so long as its exercise and expression iovolve no infringement of existing law," ' The resolution's as amended were unani mously adopted. Hon. John Aiken introduced a resolution that the report of the prudential committee be adopted and published as, the annual re- PFt•of the, board, and , published under the direCtion of,the prudential committee. The secretary, Dr. WOrcester, read the Minutes of the meeting of yesterday, which - we're approved, with the final approval of :the com pleted minutes. —Rev. Mr. _Bingham, formerly from the 1 1 Sandwich Islands, read from the Commercial jdvertiser the speech of the king of Sand Islands on the question of a new con and especially that of universal Sniff age. - The meeting was closed by prayer by Rev. .Dr. Wilkes Of Montreal, singing the Doxol :ogy, ''.Praise :God from. whom all blessings flow," and .the Benediction. In conclusion, we wish, to express our obli gations to' the gentlemanly reporter of the Worcester Spy forhis courtesy, and - to whose full and accurate reports of the meetings from day to day we are much indebted for assistance in making up our summary. LAFAYETTE, COLLEGE. This institntion, under tlie-patronage of the Synod of Philadelphia (0. S.), has just 1:103QQMO, the.recipient of twenty ,thousand dollars, to endow a Professor ship.

BEAR, BRO. MF...9.RS :-At your request I send for the "American Presbyterian," the memoranda of what is deserving of notice in the action of The Presbytery of Wilmington, in its late stated meet ing held at Milford, Del. 1. In view of, the rapid increase of immigration to the State of Delaware, the Standing Committee on Home Mis; lions was instructed to secure the op pointment of a missionary to labor at . Points along the line of the Delaware Railroad. 2. The pastoral relation was dissolved between the Forest Church, of Middle , town, and the Rev. Isaac Riley. Mr. Riley was also dismised to the Third Presbytery - of PhiladelPhia,' whithin whose bounds is the church at Potts to which he has been called. 3. The Ministerial Relief Fund was Commended to the churches and a stand-` ing committee appointed to secure a general response io the benevolent in tentions of the Assembly : 4. Pastors were instructed to call the special attention of their sessions to the action of the General Assembly in relation to the more vital union of the Sabbath school with the church. 5. The stated clerk was ordered to place the following resolutions in the hands of the sessions. , Resolved, That the- Presbytery ex presses its apprdbation and gratifica tion at the numerous instances in which our churches have come to the relief of their pastors in the pecuniary embar rassments forced upon them by the pres sure of the times. • Resolved, That the Presbytery would urge upon those' churches that have not made any increase in the amount, pf the Support pledged their pastors at once to do so. The Presbytery feel that this would be but an act of -justice and honor;—one indeed called for by the spirit of the pledge given that pastor at his call "to furnish, him with all pro per support and encouragement and to keep him from worldly cares and avo cations ;" while at the same time it is an absolute necessity ; to his usefulness. One evening, during the meeting of Presbytery, was spent prayer for the country, and a most interesting ad-. dress was made by the Rev. William Aikman, giving details of his labors among the wounded, under the auspi ces of the Sanitary and Christian Com missions. J. GARLAND HAMNER, Temporary Clerk. FOREIGN The Bishops of Calcutta, Madras and Bombay, have addressed a letter to the members of the Church of England, appealing to them for additional mis sionaries and funds, in order to enlarge the work of missions in India. The appeal, after giving an interesting ac count of the success of their own church missions, speaks thus of the labors of other sections of the Universal Church: " If we turn to the labors of other Protestant bodies, whose self-denying zeal and successful work we heartily recognize, we find that the work of the Congregationalists [Am.Board,it should have been,] in South Travancore has received almost as large a blessing as our own in Tinnevelly, that Chota Nag pore is being gradually Chrietianized by the Lutherans of Prussia, and that the Karens of Burrnah have been. won to Christ, almost as a nation, by Dr. Judson and his American successors." The Montreal Witness closes a notice of this letter with the following re mark : " One grand result of missionary labor is to draw Christians of various denominadons nearer to each other. There is probably more Christian union and affection on the foreign mission field than anywhere else, and the Indian Bishops manifest it when they heartily recognize' the labors of their brethren of other churches." • The Presbyterian Comniittee of Home Missions ac knowledge the .receipt or the following contributions during the month of September:, . . • .

A few doses of the Pain Killer taken in the early stages of the Diarrhea, have often prevented a long illness. Some are accustomed to use a little in water, preventing any injurious effects from its too frequent use during the hot weather.. . • Prices Sic., 75c., and $7. 50 per bottle. 939-2 t Adittrtior 0' tufo.

MASON & HAMLIN respectfully invite attention to the fact that their CABINET ORGANS are, by the 'written testimony of a MAJORITY OF THE MOST EMINENT ORGANISTS AND MUSICIANS IN AMER'- . CA, as well as a number of distinguished artists of other countries, declared to be unequaled by any similar instruments—" THE BEST OF THEIR CLASS ;" also, that they have been invariably awarded the first premiums at the numerous industrial fairs at which their instruments have been exhibited. They will be glad to send to any one desiriniit an illustrated catalogue of styles and prices, with a large amount of this testimony. CAITTION TO PURCHASERS. The high reputation of our CABINET ORGANS has frequently induced dealers to represent that otter instruments are the same thing that there is no essential .difference between the Cabinet Organs and Organs with various Mimes, made by other makers. This - is not true. The excellencea of our Cabinet Organs, which have given them their Thigh reputation, are the result not merely of the superiority of their worknianship, but also in large measure of essential differences of construction, which, being patented, cannot ,be employed ,by, other makers. These are essential to their better quality and volume Of tone and unrivaled, capacity of expression. When a dealer represents another instrument as the same thing as tfie Cab inet Organ, it is usually an attempt to sell an inferior instrument on which he can make a larger profit.
