TFIE WORK OF EVANGELISTS AND REVI VALISTS.is carried on with zeal and success in various parts of the United Kingdom. Joshua Poole, known as the "Converted Fiddler," has been holding services in his native town of Bradford. The' Revival says: "On Sun day, December 4, Joshua Poole and Shadrach Leadbeater, the Southport bellman, conducted the services, and God's presence was there, and He blessed the Word to all present. During the following week Joshua erected his Bible-stall in the fair, and gave a testi mony for his Master to the hundreds who crowd into the town on such occasions: A great nuMber of Bibles and TeStaments were sold, and'a large number of gospel tracts cir culated among the'-people. On Sunday an open-air meeting was held 'by the Snug which Joshua Pooleone of the worst parts of the town. Poole went into the public-house, where he was engaged as a fiddler and singer before he was sent to Wakefield prison. The la'ndlord and all in the place welcomed . ' him with a shout He gave a tract tb all-m' the house, and trenched to them Jesus, leaving - tinily of them with their heads bent down on the tables. He then commenced the meeting, and before many minutes a large company was gathered, who listened attentively, while Joshua Spoke about the fights and cursing and swearing he had had on the very ground where he was then standing, a monument of God's sparing mercy ; and he said the same blood that cleansed him could wash them and make them happy." A re — v - ival - o Considerable power is-also-re ported, in the same journal, as blessing the town of Sheffield. It is called a "powerful and glorious awakening ;" scores of souls are finding their way to Jesus. Amongst the number are men and women who have been the chief of sinners, and deep down in the mire and clay of transgression, and far from God by sin and wicked works. Publicans, harlots, and thieVes have been saved through the 'llood of the Lamb,sand those voices which ad often been heard in blasphemy, and sing , ng the drunkard's song, are now singing the revival hymns at the temperance hall. To hear these men and women, in their own lan guage, relate their former .history, their con version to God, and their present experience, produces a marvellous effect upon the crowded audiences. The hall, which will hold nearly three thousand persons, is often crowded to excess, and hundreds go away unable to get in. Among the notorious cases is one mentioned as " J M. ;' ' who had been fo,rty times in prinon. e and =his companions had once the spade and ,pick_prepared for diggino• b the grave to liury a gentleman whom they had intended- to ,lunder.

The congregation epeat the prayers after Dr. Lee in the, man-, er usually followed in Episcopalian churches. There is a great deal of kneeling and bowing. Any one entering the church would not ima gine for a moment that he was in a Preshite rian place of worship. Dr. Lee is a leader in the Established ChUrch;ancl he is determined to have his own way. Ills aim evidently is to pavn the waY:for brenking ;dOwn :the walls between the Church of Scotland and the Scottish Episcopal Church. Di.

"A most remarkable commentary on Dr. Lee's. innovation is the fact that this large, flourishing, and fashioniblb congregation does not contribute for Missionary purposes as much as many ou'i'6untry congregations in Nova Scotia:, They cheerfully give £5OO to purchase art,pygan, but they barely contri bute 45 for sending' the . gosPel to the 'hea then." The entire amount.reported as contributed by the-Eitablished Church for Foreign Mis sions in, 1863-4 is £14,377; though it is claimed that the benefactions of the Church are very imperfectly reported. • • FRANCE. THE NINTH SYNOD OF THE UNION OFEVAN OELIOAL DE:MOUES was held at,,PFis in No vember. , Opened on the 24th by a solemn religious service and sermon by Pastor John Bost, of Laforce, it prosecuted its important business matters in unexpected peace and harmony. Repeatedly the brethren looked at each other with starting tears of emotion ; the -stone that seemed to impede their pro gress had disappeared ; minds at variance had been bent ; shades had blended ; opposition gone 1 The President was Dr. Fisch, and vice-presidents Pastor Pozze and Mr. V. de Pressense. Three new churches, after length.. ened discussion were admitted into the Union: Nimes, Saint lappolite, and Coclognan, rais ing the whole number to thirty-five. A finan cial commission is to be nominated, composed of five members, whose mission will be to stimulate and regulate the contributions of the churches; to see that the central;funds are sufficiently furnished by all the churches for their various needs.

An election is about to take place, which is likely to bring the ques tion to a final solution, and it is hoped that the result will only confirm the ascendancy al ready gained by the orthodox party. THE LIBERAL PARTY IN THE ROMAN CA THOLIC CHURCH are starting an organ of their own called La Presse Gallicane, with the mot to of Cavour : "A free Church in a free State." A pope without temporal power will, it is believed by many of this class, be the grand rallying pointfor.true believers, and for all of every creed ? or of no settled creed, who are dissatisfied with .their present poSi don. THE BRITISH AND FOREIGN BIBLE SOCIETY have opened a depot in Paris, in the. Rue St. Honore, near the Place Vendome ; it is a handsome and attractive shop, and was a great desideratuyn. The Bible Society of France, formed in 1864 from the orthodox and pro testing members of the Protestant Bible So ciety, had sold, up to November the Ist, 3120 copies of the Holy Scriptures, and had re ceived the adhesion ofeighty-seven Reformed churches, one Lutheran church, and three Independent. The donations up to that time amounted to 25,000 francs.— Christian Work. THE ISRAELITE UNIVERSAL ALLIANCE is making steady progress. Among other pre liminary steps onward, it stopped a defama tory libel against the Jews from being printed, and obtained the suppression and possession of the whole edition. It was written by an abbe, and called the "Life of Judas."—/b. BELGIUM The Infidel reaction from the ultramontane tendencies of the Romish doctrine and policy, is making marked progress in Belgium. A most singular feature 'of the reaction is the formation of societies, whose members are pledged to refuse the rites of religion on their death-beds, and to be buried without the clergy. Some pledge themselves to have no priest at death or marriage, and not to bap tize or confirm their'children. All the prin cipal. . debates in the Chambers are on matters in which the Church is interested, whether it be education, scholatic—foundations, or_ cemeteries-; even the new law'on eleCtions is framed to lmit the-influence of, the priests, and to prevent their keeping wate,h 'over the votes of their flocks. In the communes, the same spirit is evident, in the establishment of communal schools from which the clergy are excluded. - In Brussels the town council has recently opened a superior girls' school, ex pressly designed to compete with the con vents, who have hitherto had the monopoly of female education. The Belgian Evangelical Society, so ably managed by its . devoted Secretary, the Rev. L. Anet, is doing all that its means admit of to supply the spiritual wants of the comma - - In'many places their are signs of a ripening harvest, but the labore?s are few. ITALY. DEMANDS OF Tux FIELD. —Mr. Piggott, of the Wesleyan Mission to Milan, writes: "The fide . open field is, only cultivated in-spots here and there. In the old Sardinian kingdom, out of Turin, Genoa, and the, Waldensian valleys, there exists scarcely any Evangelical agency. In Lombardy more is being done ; but there are largo cities, such as Lodi and Piacenza, still unvisited; to say nothing of the villages and small towns, which we can as yet scarcely think of. Tuscany may be,eom , , pareifWith Lombardy :.but in the Romagna, along the eastern coast, in the province of Naples, and the islands of Sicily and Sardinia, the Eyanglipal laborers are so few, as to be lot in.the dark drear waste of vice and super, stition, over which they are scattered. At the same time the whole country is broadly, freely open. The Government stands,by us, and, with a fairness worthy of all praise, puts 'down all attemps to restrict us in that liberty .of worship conceded by the constitution. •Po- litical circunistances, :and 'in' particular th,e obstinate . opposition' of the Papal, - party to the enthusiastic ; aspirations of the -natien, are, much in 'our-favor.

In one of ,the Tillages we found, on returning the second THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1865. time, that most of the copies of the gospel had been carefully collected by the priest and bient,,and the people seemed rather inclined to burn us." Many soldiers have been reached by these humble labors. The following passage upon this part of the work will be found interest ing :--" Most of these soldiers do service from time to time in the hundred forts which de fend the city. One of the latter is on the celebrated San Imes. To this mountain Mount Sion of the 'superstitious in these pasts. —there is a three mile length of porticoes, under which penitents ascend iq comanies to a picture, said to be painted by St. Luke..ln the dead of the night, When the north wind (which sometimes freezes to death the•guard upon the rampart) is blowing, poor country -people go up bare-footed, beating their breasts, and 'crying -to the 'Virgin for mercy. • It is said that the Protestants of the fifteenth cm= tury conquered till they came to this holy mount, and that as they touched it, the Virgin, with a celestial legion, drove them back in confusion ! Times are charged. We have a . hundred men on San Luca who read the Word of-God, and some, when they knew I was in the ohurch—that mysterious temple of idola try:to which kings, and queens, and popes ha - ve sent their treasures—came without hesi tation to ask for gospels. The capfain sent for us, and, since many of the soldiers wished a meaing on the mount, gave us permission to teltof Jesus even there. ' MIStIiONARX,4 INDlA—Fein - cile Igthicaaon.=The progress made in the vieiniVellpije r atiiiiiiirlginch of labor for the elevation Of - the'..iiiiiVes, is very great. The facts, as gather 44 by, the membersof the missionary ponfeAdeei, are most encouraging. Christian women, in in creasing numbers, are engage teachin g from house to house. The Oh:rasa= Work , speaks of a periodical, recently commenced, intended specially for educated women it is' cheap, illustrated by wood-cuts, and gives , in formation,on various subjects. A book has been published; said to be the genuine pro duction of a native lady who is exceedin,gly anxious to benefit her countrywomen. It is said that some short time ago she determined to set up a female school ; and the funds for the payment of teachers being deficient, she sold her own jewels in order to provide them. Education in General.—There -are, by rec konings recently made, about 70,000 pupils in English institutions, Government, mis sionary, and private ; in vernacular schools, under the missionaries, there are 51,000 pu pils, and in those aided and superintended by government officials, as many as 284,000; making a total of 400,000 native Hindu youth, under enlightened; educational influences. The Government desires to restrict its efforts' in English education, and to pay increased attention to' the schools in the vernacular. Last year they spent on education generally £552,000, £lOO,OOO more tha,u they ever spent before. During the present.year an ad ditional £lOO,OOO will be granted tokthis de partment. It is to the ,system of grants-in aid that special attention is now given, and the rules under which they are di§tributed are growing more liberal every year.--Chris- Una Work. London Mission, 'in S. Travancore.—Pp bably one of the best organized and most steadily prosperous of modern missions is that of the London Missionary Society in South Travancore;lndia. From a brief historical sketch communicated to the Christian Work, of 'January, we extract the following para graphs: As early,as the year 1805, the London Mis sionary Society took possession of the whole of the southern portions of the 'native State of Travancore, comprising an extent of coun try ninety miles in length, by Upwards of thirty in - average breadth, stretching along the Malabar coast,"from Quilon to Cape Co morin. Ever since then this field of mission labor has been, occupied by the London Mis sionary Society, eight being the Usual com plement of European laborers in the field. The field of labor is divided into seven dis districti, each comprising a compact extent of territory surrounding italead station s at which the missionary resides, Nogercoil being the first one occupied, and remaining the chief. On these fields :there are 229 congregations. None of the 237 native, assistants, comprising preachers (ealleti.Mistantmissibnaries), cate chists, and others have received ordination. The educational ildiairtinent is'well organ ized, occupying 213 native assistants, besides those already named: making 450 in all. There are 1475 communicants, 180 of whom were added in 1863, and 434 persons were re gistered as candidates for admission, at the close of the year. 'The average Attendance during the year was 16,151 each Lord's day; the total number, of professing Christians being 24,142. We do not; regard the majority of these as others than learners in the school of Christ, many of them being children in knowledge and':'undeistanding of spiritual things. Nevertheless, we rejoice iu the fact, that so many thousands have, outwardly at least, renounced the hidden things, of daxk ities's ; and, Sabbath - after Sabbath 'as - the church gongs, resound through .the palm forests that stretch along the shore, or among the dense jungles adjoining the neighliorilig hills, assemble,themselves together in temples dedicated tto - the'lvorShip' - of - Ichtivah to hear from., the mouth. of, the preacher words Whereby 'they may be saved.
