CASH PREMIUMS We accordingly offer for each new sub uriber, paying in advanoe, SEVENTY-FIVE Carus premium, to the agent procuring and forwarding the amount. For every four new subscribers with $l2, (or, in the city, $14,) in advance, the agent may retain a premium of FIVE DOLLARS, and at the same rate for every additional sub scriber. The agent raising a club of ten new sub scribers, and forwarding the amount in ad vance, can retain $7 50, OTIIER PREMIUMS FOR THREE NEW SUBSCRIBERS with $9. (in the city $lO. 50) in advance, we will forward, free of expense, a copy, either of John Huss and His Times, or of Shedd's History of Doc rine. These are new works of standard value, each in 2 vols. Bvo., worth $6. in ordinary times. SEWING MACHINE For twenty-five new subscribers and seven ty-five dollars (in the city $87.50) we will give a Fifty Dollar GROPER AND BAKER. SEW nva litecniNE. The same for three clubs of ten each. CHILDREN OF THE BATTLEFIELD This patriotic song, with music, and finely lithographed, accurate, portaits of the Three Children on the cover, sent post-paid for one new subscriber with pay in advance, CITY RELIGIOUS ITEMS. The renting of pews in the North Broad Street Church, which took place on Monday evening of last week, was a spirited and. successful affair. A large concourse was in attendance. Mr. Thomas Potter opened the proceedings by stating that a debt for furnishing the church, amounting to to six thousand dollars, remained to be pro vided for. This it was proposed to meet by offering a choice of pews this evening at a premium. All that was intended by the sale was to give the congregation an opportunity in this manner to contribute as they saw fit for the payment of this indebtedness. Mr. Thomas Wood then proceeded to offer the first cliOice of pews to the highest bidder; which, in a short time, was knocked down at $6OO. The suc cessful bidder selected the .ninth pew from the front, on the right hand of the middle aisle. The second choice was then disposed of at $5OO, after which a spirited competition sprung up for the third choice, which finally brought $725 —the highest premium given. The, fourth choice brought $5OO, the fifth $2OO, the sixth $3OO, the seventh and eighth $2OO each, the ninth and. tenth $175 each, the eleventh $l5O, the twelfth $lOO, the thirteenth $125, the fourteenth $lOO, the fifteenth $125, the sixteenth $llO, the seventeenth $lOO, and from that amount down to $5. The prem iums thus given reached the handsome total of $5500, and-the annual pew rents subscribed amounted to $6400. Nw.w CHURCH ORGANIZED.-OH Mon day, the 17th, the Wharton . . Street Presbyterian. Church was organized by a committee of the Fourth . . Presbytery of Philadelphia, consisting of Rev. Messrs. Barnes, Brainerd and Shepherd. Over sixty persons were recognized as members, twenty-four of whom present ed themselves on profession of their faith. DEDICATION OF THE FIFTH BAPTIST -OHURCH.—The beautiful and costly edi fice which, during the past four years, has been in process of erection for the use of the Baptist church • formerly worshipping in. Sansoru street below Ninth, and now under the pastoral care of Rev. James Simmons, was formally dedicated to the service of Almighty God` on the evening of the 13th instant. Several of the clergy took part with the, pastor in the services, which were deeply interesting throughout. A new organ, built expressly for the church, gave out its rich tones to heighten the effect of the. hymns sung. Every part of the hcuse was crowded, and every thing pertaining to the service was sat isfactory. Not the leash in this last quality, was the announcement that the, whole expense of the enterprise, furnishing included, ($77,000) was Egad da,tod, and even the pastor's salary paid ~g advance The building is a noble affair, con structed after the popular ecclesiastical architecture of the day, and well elabe rated at that. Externally it is 'an 'ir xegular cruciform, with a tapering Gothic spire_ springing from the front. -Within,.the auditorium is divided into a nave and two transepts. The frau pept'at the left of the pulpit is assigned to the organ and choir., Entrances, a chapel, a_ Sunday School room, and a "vestry, fill 'up the spaees not ()Coupled by .the audience room, all together ) walla inclusive, covering a space, of 90 .feetiront by 180 deep. 1- The dedioation services were appro priately concluded with a liberal thank 9ffering appropriated to Some Missions. OUR EDUCATIONAL WORK. We have before us, in pamphlet form, the last report of our church's Perma nent Committee on Education, together with the action of the Assembly there on. It has already been spread before our readers, but it will be wise for the church to refresh its memory respecting its own solemn needs in the case. The subject derives special interest from the unusually hearty action of several of the Synods, at. their late meetings, in favor of the cause, and approbatory of the labors of the Committee and its ac complished Secretary. We refer to the report, at this time, chiefly to bring out its short but conclusive answer to the question so often thrust in the way of a generous support of the enterpriseL— " What need is there to increase the ministry ?" The Committee say : " The all-essential work which the ministry was instituted. to perform is not yet done. There are not ministers enough to do it, and their number must be increased till the Lord's parting com mand is fulfilled. " The question is varied : Have we not ministers enough ?' It is not our province to decide that. God, who has called and established the church, has reserved to himself the prerogative of calling and preparing the ministry by which it is to be built and perpetuated. We implore our Presbyteries to intro duce none to preparatory studies, or to the ministry itself, who do not, after a patient examination, give fair evidence that they are called of God to preach; but we dare not decide that there are ministers enough while he continues to call men. It is our, wisdom to recognize his hand, and to follow his loadings. " But is there a demand. for the min istry ? The ministry does not follow the commercial law of supply and de mand. It is God's arrangement that it shall not wait until it is sent for, but shall go into ignorant, indifferent, and vicious communities, and by its varied labors create a demand for its services. So long as an armed rebel remains to fight, there will be a demand for loyal soldiers to subdue him. So long as Communities need the gospel, there will be a demand for ministers; but they must be willing to imitate our soldiers, and not plant themselves in fortifica tions, amid comforts and the attractions of fine scenery and 'social intercourse, but go where the enemy is, and meet him on his own ground." The last sentence reveals the chief reasonfor what is called the over-supply. So far as agreeable parishes and " com petent support" go, the supply was much more in advance of the " fields" in the apostolic days than it is now ; but who ever thought of one of those holy men idly waiting for a " call," or complain ing that he was not wanted, and fresh supplies were not wanted in the church, because no suitable " vacancies" threw themselves at his feet? Every minister of that day .opened his field for himself. He found work only as he made work. We know there are now in the church some really good ministers, anxious to labor for Christ, who are embarrassed and distressed for the want of some re munerating pastoral engagement, and for the trials of all such we have sincere sympathy, and, were it in our power, we would gladly help them to such settle ments as would meet their hearts' desire. Still, from long observation of the ways of God with his consecrated servants, we believe support will in some way be insured even to those who are waiting for a field, if they will work while they wait. "THE SHAKING OF THE NATIONS." This is the title of a sermon preached by Rev. Herrick Sohnson, pastor of the Third Church, Pittsburg, Sept. llth, published by request of 'the young men of the congregation. The text is in Heb. xii. 27 ; "And this word; yet once more, signifleth the removing of those things that are shaken," &c. The doc trines argued with great force from the text are, that Redemption must be by conflict and at cost ; and that Christian ity is a declaration of war, to the sinful powevs of the world. The great con vulsions which have attended the course of our race are regarded as ascribed by the text to Satan's resistance to the on ward movement of truth and. righteous ness. These are "doctrines for the times." We rejoice to recognize in the bold and ardent pastor of the Third Church, a religious teacher so fully awake to the great: opportunities and exigencies of the hour, and 'showing' a. decided ability to meet them and piit' them to use in his pulpit ministrations. There must be more such sermons p'reached, if the community is kept toned up to the degree of moral clear ness, endurance and loftiness of purpose necessary to the highest success in' our great struggle. We have marked' an extract for our _next issue. TV e may here remark upon the style of the ser thatit is highly animated, earnest and vigorous, while it sometimes has a trace of over-forcefulness and extravagance vhicl .a little experience`will doubtless correct. " . • lier We call attention to the advdrtise meat of College Hill. Military Boarding School, Poughkeepsie, New York. PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, QCTOBER 20, 1864. This is an institution for the educa tion of promising colored young men for service to their race, chiefly in the min istry, and with Africa for their field. It is under Presbyterian patronage, and is located at Oxford, Pa., within conveni- ent distance of this city. Rev. S. M. Dickey, President of the Board of Trus tees, writes under date of September 26. " The Ashmun Institute has commen ced its present session of ten months with twenty-one students already in, and seven engaged ; making twenty eight, the full complement under present circumstances. Seven of these are sup ported by the Boards of Bdueation of the New and Old' School. Christian friexids sustain each other ; while for the rest no special provision has been made. We have receivtd them, relying upon that sympathy and kindness which has hitherto so liberally met our increasing wants. The annual expense for each will be about one hundred and fifty dol lars. Great pains have been taken to prevent any from entering who do not give fair promise of usefulness to the colored race, either in this country or Africa. Most of them are members of churches and preparing for the ministry, while they have no funds available for their support. What will freedom do for their people if they have no properly qualified Christian teachers ? and when shall we help them, if not now? God has already blessed the contributions you have made for this object. We ask the means to carry us through the pres ent session; and also the personal inter est and prayers of the friends of the cause." There is something that needs explain ing in the following statement, which we clip from a Baltimore comrannica tion to the German Reformed‘ illessen ger :-- "In the meantime, 'we have some in formation to communicate, which may be turned to pod account by any who may find themselves in this embarrass ing situation just now, or who may be drafted before the meeting of our Syn od: Last July, a Catholic priest; Rev. Th. Foley, Private Secretary of the late Archbishop Kenrick, was drafted, in this city, for three years, and, in a few days after, his name was published among the exemptions, with the reason attached : Paroled by order of the Secre tary of War.' A few weeks ago, Rev. Julius Dashiell, an Fpiscopalclergyman of Baltimore County, was drafted for one year, and, in a few days after, the Provost iarshal published his name in the list of exemptions, and for the fol lowin 0. reason : 'Excused from, reporting, by order of the Secretary of War." We have nothing to say against the exemption of clergymen from the ser vice; but if the thing is to be practiced let it be upon the' broad and impartial scale, and not be dealt out to certainin diViduals- as a special faVor. — The sev enteenth section of the Enrollment Act is not so framed that ministers of those denominations which, regard the bear ing of arms as a desecration of the of ftee, can take advantage of it without straining a point. They cannot consci entiously take the oath in the terms given. The case is unquestionably 'a hard one, but when the department un dertakes to interfere, it should be done, not invidionsly, but for all alike. The Seere,fity of one of our great be nevolent societies, at his headquarters in NeW York, found on his desk, a few days since, the following satisfactory note, with its enclosure "Mr DEAR SIR :—ln view of the'igh rates of living, I am impressed with the belief that I ought to add a small por tion to your salary which Z suspect is inadequate. I beg you to accept from Providence the enclosed check for one hundred dollars. I trust others may be impressed in the same way." This was an act of consideration the more worthy of notice because it reach ed a case belonging to the class,'which have been wrongfully overlooked in the thoughtfulness of the church for the' increased necessities of its ministry.. Kind parishioners have their pastors ever before and among them. They can scarcely forget their trials from the times, without a wilfdl effort to do so. But the, secretary, toiling at the wheel which turns the vastest, and in some respects, most. vital machinery of, the church, works out of sight, where his personal need of sympathy and. more solid remembrance, is not likely to at tract attention. We should ,rejoice if the, kind act recorded above, should re mind other, generous .rewarders of the obligations of the church to this worthy class of its workers. In the application, before an Ecclek astical Council, for the dismission of Rev. Ms. Lewis from the ConoTegational church, in Lyman, Maine, on the 13th ult., the chief reason assigned was "that a portion of the society wish to have the value of their real estate increased, thei; schools improved, their dead decently, buried, and the social and moral condi tion of the town generally elevated, at others' expense." ASHDIUN INSTITUTE. DRAFTED MINISTERS. WELL THOUGHT OF. REASON ENOUGH. NEED OF REPORTERS Some very good suggestions under this bead are found in the last number of the Gerran Reformed Messenger. We commend /them to the pastors of our churches, o.nd solicit for the American Presbyterian the benefit of their reflec tions upoi the subject. "The pkstors are greatly at fault for not furnishing the Messenger with Church news. They are eager to read about every- lieensure, ordination, corner-stone laying, church dedication, &c., and even find fault with the paper for not chroni cling these events more completely, while they themselves will not move a pen to furnish them. The Clerks of the Classes are often to blame in the matter. A religious paper can only be made what it ought to be by the active co-op eration of the pastors. It requires but little learning and labor to note do n a faCt of general interest to the Church. It costs but three cents. If desired, we feel convinced the publishers will cheer fully pay the cost. These facts are worth much to the papir and its-read ers. They help to give freshness, va riety, completeness to its, contents—to make it a live paper." DEATH OF CHIEF JUSTICE TANEY. This event took place in Washington, on the evening of the 12th inst. As re gards personal eharcter, lie leaves an unblemished record. On the bench, his talents were far from despicable. But in the great cases where the power of slavery, as a national force was involved —such asthe Dred Scott case—he afford ed another melancfroly illustration of the-submission of a strong intellect to the bondage of sectional prejudice. In connection with recent emancipatiou laws, the Federal Supreme Court will probably ere long be called upon for more important decisions than it has ever made, and this providential-,event may change the whole complexion of those decisions. THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH AND THE CRISIS. We most earnestly wish that the senior Bishop and Diocese of Pennsyl vania were a sample of the loyalty and Tatriotism of their church at largo in the country. Very different from the former must be his Rt. Rev. Brother of 'lllinois, (Bishop Whitehouse,) who, pre siding over the recent Diocesan "Con vention in Chicago, ruled out a resolu tion 'of - loyalty and Pledge , of co-opera tion with the government, giving as one part of his reason that it was a po hticaresolution. At ;the same time he entertained, and had under debate, a resolution censuring the government for drafting.-.olArgYMen• POLITICAL SERMONS. The _lndependent says that on Sunday the 9th inst , Rev. H. W. Beecher gave notice from his pulpit, that he would, on Sabbath evenings, until the Presiden tial election, preach sermons which some might call political. He gave the notice in advance, that if any did not wish to hear these discourses, they would have opportunity to leave their seats vacant for those who did 1 As this was equally a notice to those who do wish to hear them to come, it is presumed that Mr. B has no serious apprehensions of the Want o 1 an audience. DEATH OF CAPTAIN SPEKE. This intrepid explorer, and discoverer of the source of the Nile, has come to his earthly end under mournful circum stances. While shooting lathe neighbor hood of Oorsham, Wilts, England, on the nth ult., he was killed by the accidental discharge of his own gun, th e. ball passing through his chest nearhis heart, and pro ducing death in ten minutes: He was only about thirty-eight years of age, and was preparing at the time of his Melan choly death for another exploring expe dition to Africa, in the direction of the Nile's source. ' . TAX ON TOBAOOO. It is said that the segar . manufactories show a great decrease _of smokers since the imposition of this .tax, We have seen a statement that in this ; city ,and New York ,the redu,ction is nearly one half.. Great numbers, of .employees in the business, who foFraerly ‘ had. abun dant occupation, at from $l5 to $25 a week, are now without employment. We are sincerely sorry for all who are suffering for need of• work, ‘but glad _enough for every diminution of the use of tobacco. BOOKS RECEIVED. From R. CARTER & 13Ros.

LATEST NEWS—Tuesday The Elections.—The Press of this morning foots up a Union majority, in PennsylVania, on the Home Vote, of 1643. The soldiers' vote will probably increase this majority to 10,000. As compared with the Congressional election of two years ago, this is a decided gain, and several Union Congressmen will, it is believed, take the place of Democrats elec ted at that time. Ohio.—The Union majori ty on the Home Vote in 73 counties is offi cially stated at 27,285. Here also, there is a gain of three or four Congressmen for the Union. The largest Union majority was given in Pendleton's district. Maryland.
