jelns af nut Union Theological Seminary— We see it stated that the Hebrew chair in this institution is to be temporarily filled by Retr. Dr. Van Dyck, the oriental scholar, and Missionary of the American Board connected with the Syrian Mission. We have before noticed the arrival of Dr. Van Dyck in this country to superintend the printing of the new Arabic transla tion of the Bible, commenced by the late Dr. Eli Smith, and completed by himself. His services in the Seminary will un questionably be of the highest value. Church Extension in Minnesota.— Under the labors of Rev. A. G. Ruliff son, State Missionary, a new church of fifteen members has recently been organ- Preston, the county seat of Fill more county. It worships for the pre sent in the finely finished and well arranged hall of of the court house, and is now supplied with regular gospel min istrations. Out of a population of less than five hundred iu the town, about two hundred attend upon its worship, and its Sabbath-school numbers eighty-five scholars. Its prospects are, on the whole, quite good. Ithaca—The First Presbyterian Church of Ithaca, have called Rev. Theo dore F. White, of Delhi, N. Y.-, to suc ceed Dr. Torry. By the way, the latter, if our memory serves us, was enticed from the same fold to serve Ithaca. This would seem to argue a remarkable coin cidence of taste in the two churches; and pf which, as yet, Ithaca has reaped all the advantage. It is probable that that she Bent on 'one or more of her trust ed men to hear Messrs. Torry and White, before deciding, but we see not why, in all future cases, that preliminary might not be dispensed with; and thus the compliment to the good judgment of the Delhi brethren would be all the more striking.— Evaneglist. Our New Philadelphia Pastor.— We have announced that Rev. J. Ford Sutton, late of Howell, Michigan, has entered upon his labors with the West ern' Presbyterian Church in this city. A correspondent of the Evangelist, writ ing from Howell, thus speaks of him : “ While deplore the loss of so dear a friend and so able a pastor, we cannot but admit and acquiesce in the consid eration of Christian duty and zeal for the increase of the Master’s kingdom which actuate-him in removing to a more extensive vineyard and enlarged .sphere for Christian influence and exer tion. And we desire to express, as far as language can, the sincere and tender love and the'perfect honor and esteem with which he is regarded by the entire church and congregation. And we de sire also to signify our appreciation of his worth and ability as a pastor, and testify to the fidelity and felicity with which he has watched over and lafagred for the interests of the Zion committed to his care, and performed acceptably to all, the many peculiar duties and respon sibilities of the minister of the Gospel. The memory of his sojourn here will be peculiarly cherished in the hearts of many, who at his coming were in the ‘ bonds of iniquity,’ but who, by the bless ing of God upon his efforts, are now sit ing at the feet of Jesus ‘ clothed and in their right mind.’ All look back upon the period of hiß labors here as being the happiest in their Christian experience. Of genial manners ; he was universally beloved. Of fervid, earnest eloquence, he was powerful in the pulpit, arousing and inciting all, and leading many to Jesus. Of untiring energy he was ac tive in every good word and work. There was no such Wofd as faiWin his Napoleonic vocabulary. Every enter prise in which he engaged felt the mo mentum of his ardent, earnest spirit. His removal will be sincerely regretted, not only by his own people and within the bounds of his own Presbytery, but will be tffoss to the State. May the ‘ Lord bless and keep him,’ and may the people to whom he goes receive him with the cordial love and generous confidence, which he deserves, and out-do us in mani festations of gratitude and esteem.” . An Important Point Occupied. We have at length a church of our connec tion organized and starting its career under.highly promising auspices, in one of the old "towns of Ohio, Marietta, the seat of Marietta College. The Christian Herald , giving an account of the organi zation, says“ Some of the good peo ple of the place havo felt for years that a church in connection with our Assem bly would promote the interests of edu cation and religion. This feeling has at length been expressed in action. In July last an informal organization was made} and Rev. Henry W. Ballantine, returned missionary from India, was in vited to commence ministerial labors. The friends of the new enterprise com menced holding meetings on the 20th of July, in a Mission School-room in the morning and in the Lutheran church in the afternoon. These places have been crowded .and the prayer-meetings held in the Lutheran church have been well attended. The Holy Spirit has been present abd sinners awakened, bo that God seemed evidently to say to his peo ple ‘go forward.’. On the 27th ult., a church was organized with 53 members, most of whom brought letters from the congregational church, (Rev. Dr. Wickes’). Prof. E. B. Andrews and Rev. M. Curtis, of Belpre, assisted Mr. Ballantine in the organization and in the ordination of tw<Truling elders.” It is peculiarly pleasant to find added in the Herald, thai the new _ organization has the cordial sympathy of the previously existing Old School church in the place. It is also stated that a fine new Lecture room, the forerunner of an ample church edifice, is sbout to be erected in a beau tiful and convenient location. Transfer. —Rev. A. L. Brooks leaves the Seventh Presbyterian Church, Chi cago, to take the pastorate of the church in Peoria, 111. Mason, Ohio.— There have recently been several accessions to the. church in this place, under the care of Rev. E. S. Weaver. The Christian Herald has a cheering account of the prosperity of the Sabbath-school, and also of a large Bible class of adults conducted by one of the Elders. This last is, in any church where it exists, a feature of inestimable value. Erie, Pa. —TheAVte Gazette says that the First Presbyterian church is about to undergo some .necessary repairs, in ( the way particularly of stopping leak ages in the roof. If to this should be added the work of frescoing the audience room, the members can lay claim to one of the handsomest as well as most sub stantial church edifices in the country. The pastor, Rev. Dr. Lyon, will avail himself of the opportunity afforded by the proposed repairs, to go abroad for the benefit of his .health, which has been somewhat impaired by constant devotion to his arduous duties. Rev. J. B. Reeve and his Mission. —Our readears are already aware that Mr. Reeve, the accomplished pastor of the Colored Central Presbyterian church, on Lombard street in this city, is spend ing a few weeks of exploration among the freedmen in Tennessee, under com mission from our Committee on Home missions. We have been favored with the perusal of a letter from him, under date of Knoxville, September 2, ad dressed to a member of his session, with' permission to use portions of it for pub lication. We avail ourselves of this lib erty, knowing that to hear of his welfare and works will be interesting' to his friends, and to the church generally. He writes:— “I left Chattanooga on the llth ult., came to Knoxville, remained a few hours, and then went on, seventy-five miles, to Greenville,where the Holston Presbytery was then in session. I was kindly re lieved by the Presbytery, was invited to sit with them, &c., and felt as much at home as I should in a strange Presby tery at the North. They listened atten tively to an account of my work, and passed a commendatory resolu tion, I consider this quite a triumph; since some of the intensest negro haters I have ever seen or heard of are among the Union men of this region. This is one of the anomalous and painful facts we meet. I spent • five days in Greenville, and-held five meetings—two in the old Greenville college, where the freedmen now have a large school; one in the camp of the First United States Colored, Heavy Artillery; one in the camp of the ■ Fortieth-United States Colored Troops; and one in the New School Presbyterian church. The First United States Col ored Heavy Artillery is the finest regi ment I have yet seen. It was composed at first of eighteen hundred men. I found several brethren of our own faith and order, from Kentucky and Tennessee, among them. Those from Kentucky, told me of several once large colored Presbyterian churches in that State which tlfev entreated me to visit. I found in one Prebyterian preacher ; a noble man, of thirty-six years, whose piety the most ungodly of the men seemed compelled to respect.; Now that the war is over and our peo ple freed, I found him anxious to devote himself to the work of the ministry, as he was never able to. do ivhen a slave. I succeeded in getting him detailed to labor among the freedmen in this section, with which he is well acquainted. I Ssould have organized three or four churches had there been men to take them and carry them on. The colored Presbyterians here, and those who in cline to Presbyterianism, like many at the North, want educated ministers, and they are worthy of them. We have un derrated their intelligence. “ I visited Rogersville, where brother Sawyer used to preach, and from whence he was driven in 1851, because he wanted to discipline a rich member who had had a slave whipped most unmerci fully. I was there, and' preached two sermons to freedmen in the church he was forced to leave. “ I have been here in Knoxville just one week. The freedmen here are very intelligent and enterprising. I am per fectly at home in the family of brother Scraggs, a thorough business man, a de voted Christian, a good N. S.. Presbyte rian, whose heart is set on having a church organized here. We hope to or ganize next week. We must have a minister from the North for this point. Settled here, a man could work all up and down this region with great com fort, and every prospect of success.” Compliment to a Pastor.— -The So ciety of the First Presbyterian Church, last evening, paid a handsome compli ment to their worthy and successful pas tor, Rev. Dr. Fowler. The following resolutions were adopted with great una nimity: Resolved, That during the fifteen years in which Rev. Philemon H. Fowler, D.D., has been pastor of this church, he has greatly endeared himself to the mem bers of this Church and congregation by his consistent deep toned piety ; by the fidelity, directness, and ability of "his pul pit ministrations ; by the thoughtfulness and tender consideration with which he has acted as shepherd of his flock, and THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1865, by the eminent practical sagacity with 1 which he has labored, and endeavored to enlist the Church, in. the support and extension of every work calculated to im prove society and advance the kingdom of Christ. - . Resolved, That these long years of zealous and successful service here, justify the warm affection, the high per sonal esteem, and the unreserved confi dence in him as a minister of the Gopel, which this church and congregation cherish, and which are shared by our entire Christian community. Resolved, That the salary of the. pas tor of this church from and after the first day of November next, be increased to the sum of three thousand' dollars per annum, payable quarterly from and after that date Utica N. Y. Paper,. THE RELIGIOUS PRESS. The papers of the M. E. Church are dis cussing the late manifesto of the Bishops of the Southern branch of their Church adopted at Columbus, Georgia, August 17th. This document spurns the idea of union with the Northern Church, and assumes superiority over it in the old-fashioned, arrogant style of the South. - The New York Methodist com ments upon the document as follows:— We print in full, on another page of this paper, the pastoral address- of the Southern Methodist Bishops, and we ask for it, from all our readers, an attentive perusal. They will perceive, and many of them with regret} that the spirit of these leaders of Southern Methodism is still unchanged. Though claim-, ing, and doubtless having received, the bene fits of the Presiden’t amnesty, they are in heart as rebellious as ever. They call North ern Methodists “radicals,” but so is the Government which has reduced them to sub mission radical; for that Government has performed the most “radical” acts of the century—it has emancipated the slave, and has declared him equally entitled with the white man to the protection of the law. The spirit of the Methodist Episcopal Church, which these bishops, with an affectation of sanctity, denounce as political, is the spirit for which Abraham Lincoln blessed God, and which inspired a hundred thousand Method ists to rally to the rescue of our imperilled Union.- In saying that our “pulpits are perverted to agitations and questions promot ive of political and ecclesiastical discord,” the Southern bishops impeach the devotion of our _ Church to freedom-and. the Unioni' Hating freedom, and hating the Union as much as they dare, they will not consort with us. This, stripped of its disguises, is the meaning of their-manifesto. It is clear that these Southern leaders have learned no wisdom from the past; that they cherish with fondness the souvenirs of the rebellion; that they are determined to foster in the minds of their flocks the opinions and the spirit which led to rebellion. Loyalmen. will indignantly ask for what end is this done ? Is it their design to make the Southern Methodist Episcopal Church the nursery of future treasons and future outbreaks against the authority of the Union? In this document, the bishops have written the death warrant of Southern Methodism. No Church,which thus cherishes a hatred of loyal men because of their devotion to free dom . and the Union, can stand before the American people. The ever-intensifying in dignation against the pro-slavery and rebel lious spirit will shorten its days. The South ern bishops have had offered to them an ob livion of the past, and the opatrtunitv of entering upon a new life. ferred to flaunt their past,'odious as it is to all true men, in our faces, and to glory in it as a badge of distinction. Henceforth they are known and read of us all. The N. Y. Christian Advocate renounces all hope of re-union with the church South, and continues as follows; _Our work in the South, it is now quite cer tain, will be very largely—almost, wholly, in deed—among the colored people. It is now known, as was originally strongly probable, the entire negro Methodism of the South will at the first opportunity repudiate all con nection with the pro-slavery M. E. Church Sowth. It is also well known that they are earnestly inclined to our Church, and we know that unless misled by sophistries, they would en masse pass over to us. That in any case they have formed other associations has been more our fault than theirs, though they will be the principal sufferers. But we re iterate the declaration that the colored Metho dist Churches of the North are entirely in-., adequate to the work of occupying any con siderable portion of the Southern field. They ' lack the needed money and the still more needed men; and above all, they lack the culture and intellectual training that is an in dispensable condition to success in such a work. That there is good material in those' bodies we grant, and could they be absorbed into our church organization they could be made a valuable element. The interest of all parties and of our common work demand such a consolidation. Uur missionaries to the South will need to go to their work in the spirit of self-sacrifice. Their mission will be emphatically to the poor, the despised, outcast, and shamefully persecuted late slaves; now nominally and legally, though scarcely in fact, freedmen. The double odium of being “ Yankees’ ’ and “nigger preachers” will have to be borne by them. Social ostracism, bitter contempt, and violent hatred, will constitute the sum of the hospitality extended to them by the great body, of the Southern people, and especially by the Methodists. Their associations will be chiefly with the colored people, them they are to labor together in the cause' of Christ, and by them they will find it necessary ro be entertained in their pastoral and itinerant labors. In short, they will find it necessary to make common cause with the freedmen, to live among them, and to share their manner of living; to be partakers of their poverty and discomforts, and to. have part in their reproach. That there will also be many compensating facts is very probable, and to one whose heart is fully in the work the disagreeable things we have named will ap pear as trifles. It is well, however, that they should be duly anticipated, that when experi enced they may not cause discouragement. We have then nearly four million people cast upon our charity and Christian zeal; crude, unlettered, and very poor; but unso phisticated, with strong religious tendencies, especially well affected toward us as a denom ination, inclined to learn, instinct with' the love of freedom, generous, hospitable, and remarkably faithful to theifrecognizedfriends. Was ever before so favorable a mission field given by the. Head of the Church to any people ?. Were it necessary in. or der to occupy it to abandon eveiy one of our foreign missions, we believe that should be done; but there is no such necessity. The Church, is ready to‘ stretch her measure to this as an additional work. We have the money. Let a special fund of two hundred thousand dollars be asked for, to be given by individuals and Churches who have given or hold themselves pledged to give their full contributions to the general fund, and the money will be forthcoming. We have the the bishops and the missionary secretaries call for them ; or, which is per haps better) let the bishops appiont men, as ■T' Uaven was appointed to Vicksburg, without being asked, and as in his case, a large share of them would respond to the call.
