CONGREGATIONAL
DR. STONE AND CALIFORNIA ONCE
MORE.---We see it stated that the Con
gregational Church in San Francisco has
renewed its call to Rev. Dr. Stone, of
Bogion, "and is strenuously urging it.
We should suppose, after all- that has
occurred, that self-respect would prompt
his Boston church to leave the whole re
sponsibility of acceptance or otherwise
upon himself.
A CHURCH THAT DESERVES TO BE
"PASSED ABOUND."-- The Congregation
dist has following notice of the church
in Hatfield, Mass.:—" During, Rev. J.
M. Greene's seven years' pastorate in
this place he has never preached a sermon
specially on charity or Christian benevo 7
lence, yet his people have besn toned"
up' to such a degree that,they are - among
the most liberal in the Connecticut River.
Valley. During the last year they have
given their pastor's services for several
weeks to the Christian Commission,. and
followed him with over $l,OOO in stores
and money ; but this has not been done
at the e2Tenseiof,ether charitable objects,
for their `regular' contributions to various
societies have been increased. The pester
and family were made more sure of the
love of ,their people by the gin, a few
days since of a barrel of sugar, a barrel
of flour, fifty pounds of such butter as
only Hatfield ifarmers' wives know how
to make,. with wood sufficient for a year,
five hUndreir dollars in cash, 'and sundry
other desirable articles suitable to a
diminished larder and an empty pocket.
The benevolence ' of this people, as we
believe, is owing in a great degree to the
earnest, practical preaching of the pastor,
and to his way, of putting things.' .He
is now interested - in providing for the in
tellectual welfare of the town, and has
secured as the germ of a public library
five hundred dollars from one of his lady
parishoners."

METHODIST.
COLORED BISHOP IN CALIFORNIA.—The
California Christian Advocate says :
" Bishop Campbell, of the African Me
thodist Episcopal Church, is now in San
Francisco, having recently come' to our
shores . on a tour of episcopal visitation.
We had the pleasure of hearing him
preach an excellent and able sermon on
Thanksgiving evening. The audience
was large and attentive. We noticed
quite a number from other congregations .
in the city, who were evidently deeply
interested. The presence and tabors of
Bishop Campbell among the colored
churches on this coast, we do mot doubt,
will contribute to their edification and
prosperity. The Bishop is a man of years,
experience, and talents, and we trust he
will be greatly favored of the Master in,
the fulfillment of the mission on which he
has come .to the Pacific."
A PECULIARITY OF WESTERN METHOD-
Ism.—Dr. Reed, late President of Gene-
See College, thus writes to the Northern
Advocate: "I might, hzd I time, refer to
some differences between our Western
usages and your own in New York. A
full knowledge of all peculiarities might
be of mutual aAvantage. Let'one suffice:
It is an almost universal practice to give
at each public service an opportunity for
uniting with the church, either by letter
or on probation. It is done during the
sinking of the last hymn ) when the minis
terdeseehds' from the pulpit and stands
at the altar railing, in waiting for appli
cations. This is technically known as
'opening the doors of the Church,' and a
good taitern br6+ . lfer h6re, When he first
came We,st, -norant of the custom,
was asked by a Lifs,ther if he had 'not
better °gentile doors of the church. 'No,'
said he, I think it has been rather cool
in the house as it is.' The Westerner
thought him a `Terdant Yankee. This
practice, however, is attended with ad
vantages that you New Yorkers should
profit by."
REMARKABLE REVIVAL.—We learn
from the New York papers that for over
three months past the South Third Street
Methodist Episcopal Church, East Brook
lyn, N. Y., has been enjoying a revival
of religion, , under the labors of Rev. John
Inskip, pastor. The accessions to . De
cember 28th have been 350. Some are
heads of families, a goodly number are
from the Bible eldsses in the Sabbath
school, but the largest proportion are
persona in the strength and vigor of
a ripening manhood and womanhood.
It is worthy of note, that , although reli
gious services have been held every
evening except Satiirday, none of the
'regular operations ot the church have
been suspended, and its financial affairs
have been diligently looked after.
ST. DRUB, Mo.—Among the items of
news from ea own churches, will be
found an extract from the St. Louis _716,-
mocrat, giving an account of the' succeSs
ful effort to clear the 17 : fret Tresbyterian
Church or a debt of $30,000.. The arti
cle from which the account is Mien goes
on to say A :church of no less zealous
Unionism' has been the Union'Methodist
Episcopal, ip . the ,enfe- of Dr. Cox, and
like prosperity has erowrie,d that body.
On Sabbath last tWentYthOilsand dollars
was raised in the congregation in twenty
, ».inutes, to pay the _remaining debt. It
was a happy - New Year's for the Doctor
and his attached flock, who must have
gratefully recalled thp inauguration bf
their enterprise. three .:."years ago. We
distinctly remember how the struggling
few, true to their obligations as , Christian
citizens, braved obloquy and "hazarded
everything to. maintain a patriotic and
liberty-honoring church, and how they
were scoffed at by rebel and pro-slavery
brethren.' The result, as in the case
of Dr. Nelson's church, is an eloquent
illustration of the vitality of the right
cause."
EPISCOPAL'.
CONSECRATION OF ASSISTANT' BISHOP
Cox.E.—This event took place at Geneva,
N. Y., on the 4th inst. A correspondent
of the Episcopal Recorder says of it :'—
" The occasion drew together a- large
concourse of the clergy and laity to parti
cipate in its solemnities. Bishops Hop
kins, McCoskry, Pofter, (of New York,)
Odenheimer, and Talbot, assisted-Bishop
Delancey, who acted as the Pregifing
Bishop on the occasion. • Drs. S.
Cox, Beach, Claxton, Van Rensse
laer, Hobart, and Ingersoll took part in
the services
,Preceding the consecration
office. Drs. Jackson and- Rankine sat,
near the. Bishop elect, and at 'the proper
time assisted him in putting on -h Epis
copal habit. The sermon by Bishop
Odenheimer was brief, 'clear, kindly,
earnest, and, from his stand-point, logi
cal. Its purport was that peace for
Christendom—unity through the healing
of all schisms--could only be hoped for,
was only possible, by and through the
Apostolic Episcopate. Those of us who
had read the warm-hearted utterances of
the Bishop elect, in his address before
the General Theological Seminary, and
in his various appeals in behalf of the
Christian Unity' movement, could readily
catch the' caveat' which sounded forth
as each division of the preacher's argu
ment was announced. It was NOT the
Nicene Creed,' but 'the Apostolic Epis
copate,' is the rallying point to which
schism must come on its return to Catho
lic oneness.
" The manner of Bishop Coxe during
the whole service was one which I think,
greatly moved those of us who were near
enough to watch with brotherlyinterest
the intense 'emotion that could not be
altogether repressed m its outward de
monstrations. His whole demeanor was
that of one who deeply realized the re
sponsibility he was asSurning. And
when the consecration services were over,
and he grasped the hands of his brethren,
and with suffused eyes responded to their
congratulations and good wishes, there
were not a feiv who thanked God that
the choice of the Diocese had fallen on
one to whom his Presbyters could look,
not as to a ' Lord Bishop,' but as to an
elder brother, as well as an official 'Father
in God.' "

SIISIIINSION RAVOKAD.--Rev. W. V.

under siispenSion on charge'of immorality,

The building cost £2,000, of 'Which only
£5OO pounds remained unpaid. The
church has a membership now of 300
members, a Sabbath-school at Abbey
street of 500 children, current expenses
all met, 650 sittings let, out of 1,000 in
the place, with 220 free seats. This en
terprise was commenced by men who be
lieved that Christians, while accepting
the privileges and joys of church coin
munion,•were bound also to accept the
duties and responsibilities of a religious
life, one of which is to labor for Christ
in building up his kingdom, at home as
well as abroad. They found themselves,
in a parish large and populous, and
where, notwithstanding all its spiritual
advantages, large masses of the people
were unreached by Christian influences.
In Mr. Northrop they had a man-who, in
addition to other rare qualities, possessed
an earnest love for, the Master's. work,
and, what was considered of great im
portance, a deep respect fori the common
people.—lndependent.'"

LABORS FOR THE JEws.,--r-Mr. A. J. Levry,
missionary to the Jews in the Western cities,
reports for the year As follows :`.‘ In my,
labors among my brethren according : to the
flesh, I have been well received, with : a few
exceptions, and they were willing to enter into
conversation with me on the subject, of their
soul's salvatiOn, ,and many plae& they
came to church on the SibbaAh, to hear ',me
preach. I have visited in Cincinnati, Colum

one hundred and &fey . individuals . On the Streets,

SABBATH-SCHOOLS IN ST. Lours.—The St.

surprise and:gratification at the extent and
success of these beneficent efforts in the
West. Mr. Tilton is much, engaged in Sab

WREN GAS WAS INTRODUCED,
The gas used for ordinary purposes is one
of the.products of the _destructive distilla
tions of pit coal, submitted to a great heat
in cast-iron retorts. Certain permanent
gases are olven off, and are colle,cteil in a
large pipe half filled with tar; after'which
they pass through a series of iron pipes,
cooled on the
,outside by streams or water.
The. tar , and ammoniacal liquid gcnerated
are thus condensed, and the gases proceed
to another part of the apparatus called the
purifier. After being submitted to the puri
fying process it is collected into large reser
voirs, called gasometers—more correctly,
.ns-holders—from Which it is conveyed by
large pipes, afterwards branching off into
lesser ones, to all parts of the town. The
artificial production of an inflammable' air
from coal is first mentioned by the Rev. Mr.
Clayton, in a letter addressed to the Royal
Society, May 12, 1188; he states that he,
distilled coal in a close vessel,-collecting,
the gas in -bladders, and - afterwards burning
it for, the amusement' of his friends. In
the year 1797 he erected a - similar appara-
Ina in Ayreshire, where lie then resided,
and in 1798 he wa,s,erigaged to put up his
apparatus at the manufactory of Messrs.
Boulton, Watt & Co., Soho, near Birming
ham. The illumination of thel Soho Works
by gas in 1803, on the occasion of peace,
brought it into general notice; and it was,
soon adopted by many individuals, who,
acting upon their own ideas, introduced
various modes of collecting and purifying it.
A public exhibition of it in London took
Awe in. 1806; Golden Lane was lighted
with it in 1807; Pall Mall in 1809; and all
the streets generally in 1814.

TO RULING ELDERS AND 'LEADING
MEMBERS OF THE CHURCH.
- [ln the-last number of the Western Pres
byterian, a "Country Elder," under the
above heading, treats those addressed`- to
the following kind and Sensible suggestions r ]
There is one question which is vital to
the prosperity and interest of the Church,
which I fear is being overlooked, by too
' - dtany of us. Upon that question let me
ask you to think, and
. 22.! ay, and act. Other
wise we must perish. Ido not mean God's
' ChUrch,--for that will always have its
,Prophet of Fire, and its seven thousand
who bow not the knee to Baat—but_religi
ously and spiritually this generation and its
children will perish. It is the question of
ministerial support. What do you pay yonr.
minister?`What did you pay him before
the war '`began? A plain elder froni the
country, wants plain answers to plain ques
i -
tions, I speak n rough kindness unto you.

ettoloptettitt of li'eligidue Zrithit'letiee.
- -Although not disposed to favor or reed:emend Patent
Medicines'in general, through distrust of their ingre
dients arid effects, I yet know of no stEffedent reasons
why a man may not testify to the befiefite he believes
hihiseif to.have received from any simple preparations
fikthe hope,that he may thus contribute to the benefit
Of others.
I do this more 'readily in regard to-Hoofland's Ger
, Oran Bitters, prepared by Dr. C. 11. Jackson. of this
because I was prejudiced against them for many,
"ears, under the impression that therwere eldefiy, an
ilidcoholie mixture. I amindebted tomy friend Rebt.
Shoemaker, Ban. ._for the removal of this prejudice -by
proper tests, and for encouragement to try them, when
coffering from great and long continued debility. The
use of three bottles of these Bitters, at the beginning
of the present - Year, was fdllowed by evident relief,
and restoration to a degree of bodily and mental vigor
which I had not felt for six months before, and had
almost despaired of regaining. I therefore thank
God and my friend for directing me to the use of them.

Dr. C. M. Jacksoin—Dear Sir—l feel it a pleasure
thus of my own accord to bear testimony to the excel=
lence of the German Bitters. Some Years since, being
much afflieted with Dyspepsia, .I used them with very
beneficial" results. I have Often recommended them
•to persons enfeebled by that tormenting dieease, and
have heard from them the most flattering testimonials ,
as to their great value. In cases - of "general debility I
believe it to be a tonic that cannot be surpassed.
