MADISON TO CRAWFORDSVILLE. THE OHIO For the first time, on a steamboat de scending the Ohio River, (from Madison, Indiana, to Louisville, Kentucky,) I now was ready to accord to it its title of La Belle Biviere, which I had before thought it hardly deserved. As our stern-wheeler slowly puffed its way down the winding yellow stream, the views, constantly changing, presented at every turn new beauties. The hills, which skirt its banks on both the Kentucky and Indiana sores, rise from one to three hundred feA.kbove the water's edge. Sometimes recedke„ they give room for rich corn fields ; bat generally, they cling close to the river's ' it a gently hrink, affording descending • chb.anel 'on its way to the level lands of the West. A passage on one of its many steamers, we commend to travellers as a most pleasing change from the monotony of the railroad car. To one who has not tried it, Stich a trip has much that is novel and striking. The meeting and exchange of signals with ascending boats, the landing of a pass enger by skiff or "yawl" of the steamer, the running in shore to pick up a trav eler or two with their luggage, the heav ing of the lint and lead at the boat's boii - and finding three feet, then two and a half, and yet your steamer pushing in until two feet of water warns the Cap tain that he is reaching his limit, the getting aground and off again, and other novelties to the staid railroad traveler, add life to the voyage and zest to; the enjoyment of its scenery. If the out rageous and ceaseless cursing of the mate could only be left out, it would be a remarkably agreeable, mode of voyag ing. LOUISVILLE Louisville stands on a plain left by the retreating hills on the Kentucky shore of the Ohio. Without stopping to describe it, I may say, that it is a finely shunted and excellently built city, of 70,- 000 inhabitants. Its streets, in order and name, are modeled after those of Philadelphia. It is, undoubtedly, to be an important point in our central coun try. In the new order of things, which Kentucky stupidity and obstinacy and pride are in vain striving to resist, the region south of Louisville is to be made rich and active, and this city will be its natural business centre. There is not within it aEd church of our own body. 'There should be, and that immediately. Nohetter thing could be done for this city, than that which a noble layman of Philadelphia did for the North Broad Street Church. Let a good man, of our branch of the Church, be assured of a support for three year's; gather a few families around am, and let him preach. There is a want that would be met. The effect upon the Old School Church would be stimulating and healthful. It ought to be done. Is there. no man who will father such an enter prise ? THE KENTUCKY SYNOD Here was in session, stormy and long, the Old School Synod of Kentucky. And here met in dire conflict " Dr. Bob ;" as Robert J. Breckinridge is irreverently styled, and Dr. Samuel Wilson, the champions of the Union and rebel wings of the Synod. Dr. Breckinridge, though now on the right side, and fighting bravely against the wrong, yet, not a little in the excinding style of 1837, moved—(as you have learned,) " That this Synod adjudges that the action of the majority of the Louisville Presbytery, by endorsing and adopting a paper styled `Declaration and Testimony,' assumed such a state of open rebellion against the church, and open contempt and defiance of her scrip tural authority, and contempt of her . faith, order, and acts, as to render each and every one of them unqualified, unfit, and incompe tent to sit and act as a member of this or any other court of the Presbyterian Church." The debate was fierce, and Dr. Wil son's speech upon the resolution occupied seven hours, (which, I am happy to say, I did not hear, my time being bet ter employed.) After such a broadside, the resolution could not float, and Dr. Breckinridge was severely defeated. The compromise resolution, which passed eventually by a small majority, offended both wings, bnt saved . a split. The se- cessionists in the Synod are full of bit terness and hate against the General Assembly and the Government. TheY will do the Old School body all the mis chief they can, and then go to their own place in the bosom of a Southern Church, or become Presbyterian Lehmaelites. Our own Church is ',ceded here to afford a quiet home to; Christians who would rather pray and work, than fight. NEW ALBANY. New Albany, on the Indiana shore, foar miles below Louisville, has, a differ ent atmosphere. Dr. John G. Atter bury is the active, earnest, systematic pastor of a'capital Church, of our Synod of Indiana ; and Mr. Hutchinson, in the Third Church, is a worthy fellow-laborer. The Rev. D. W. Cooper, of Detroit, is supplying the pulpit of Dr. Atterbury's Church during his absence in Europe, and very acceptably. I was pleased to find here, as in other places that I have visited, the warmest appreciation of our Publication Committee's new . Social Hymn and Tune Book. It meets with great and general favor, and will be largely used. SOUTHERN INDIANA Leaving New Albany and the Ohio River to go northward, you pass through a long range of country where hills are as plenty as they are scarce in prairie dom. The whole region is occupied by a multiplicity of step hills and hillocks, from twenty to two hundred feet in height, with narrow intervals. With few exceptions, this is the character of the country for a hundred and fifty miles. Having previdusly journeyed only through the level woodlands and prairies of central and northern Indiana, this fact took me by surprise. Of course the country is poor and the inhabitants are sparse. The rude log huts and shabby villages offer little temptation to the eye fresh fiom the rich plains and fields of central Illinois. Ultimately these rough lands will be occupied, and there will here be flocks on more than " a thousand hills." But,' for the present, they will be passed by for gentler slopes and kind lier soils that are beckoning the .cultiva tor on every hand. CRAWFORDSVILLE As you near Crawfordsville, a hun dred and seventy miles north of the Ohio, these rugged hill§ soften into beautiful land waves, and you have as comely a region as heart can desire. They are preparing to subside into the prairie upon which, if you go twenty miles fur ther, you will emerge at Lafayette. In this pleasant little town we• find our Sy nod of Wabash in session, and also the Old School Synod of Northern Indiana, and (as, later, again in Cincinnati) the two Synods were in fraternal and har monious interchange of courtesies, meet ing for united prayer, and together cele brating the dying love, of Christ. Though we may not look, at present, to an or ganic union, we must thank God that so much of the old leaven of suspicion has passed away and that so large a degree of brotherly love is manifested in the two branches of our American Presby terian Church. In tte; as in all of our Synods, the most delightful harmony prevails—unity of spirit and of love— unity also, in the hearty adoption of our simple yet strong system of Church work. I do not believe that a more har monious, unambitious and simple-hearted body of men can be found than those who compose our Synods from East to West of our great land. Imperfect they are, yet, blessed of God with oneness in purpose, in heart and in mutual confi dence. God grant that it may ever so be I We can do without "leaders" when all are brethren. • WABASH COLLEGE A point of great interest at Crawfords ville, is Wabash College. Founded in prayer, it struggled through an infancy of poverty when this was the "Far West." But the godly men who loved it, with self-sacricing zeal cherished and sustained it that it might be a centre of good influences to the generation to come. Now, it has passed through this season of trial and lives to be a power in the land. It has a beautiful campus of thirty acres, a grove it is, of native trees, and substantial buildings, (though but a plan is yet fulfilled,) free from debt, with $60,000 of property. This is a small en dowment, it is true, but there is no incu bus of debt to crush out the life of the Col lege. 'A hundred thousand dollats more is needed, imperatively, and should In bestowed upon the institution. It would be a good investment for some rich Christian. The Presideutof the College is our friend Dr. Tuttle, formerly of Rockaway, N. J. With him are associ ated the veteran Professors Hovey and Mills, and their younger colaborers, Pro fessors Thompson, Campbell, and Had ley. They may well give themselves heartily to their charge, for here they are training in the centre of the West the men who will not *only hold posi tions of influence in the West, but will exercise a power that will be felt through out our land. All honor to those who, often' amid much self-denial, are educat ing the men of the West for God and their native land. J. W.. D. titinn OM eljittfijf4s. GOOD NEWS FROM TENNESSEE.—Rev. It. P. Wells writes us that a meeting of much interest closed at the Spring Place Church, Knox County, Saturday night of week before last. The Church was greatly revived ; and sixteen inquirers came forward in a single night ; and eleven have united with the Church, and others will probably join soon. INSTALLATION IN NEWARK, N. J.— Rev. W. C. Scofield' was, on the Ist inst. installed pastor of the Central Presby terian Church in Newark, by the Pres bytery of Newark. The exercises • are said to have been deeply interesting. Rev. I. Mcllvaine, the Moderator, pre sided ; and proposed the constitutional questions to the pastor and the people; the Rev. Dr. Burchard, of New York, preached the sermon from Matthew xx. 8, " Call the laborers and give them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first." Dr. Few Smith offered the installing prayer, Dr. Stearns gave the charge to the pastor, and Dr. Poor to the people. INSTALLATIONS IN ILLINOIS.—OR the evening of October 24th, the Presbytery of Knox installed Rev. George Duffield, Jr., as pastor of the Second Presbyterian Church in the city of Galesburg. Rev. Samuel Wyckoff,Moderator, presided, and propounded the constitutional questions ; Rev. A. K. Strong, of the Galena and Belvidere Presbytery, offered prayer ; Rev. George Duffield,` D.D., of the Pres bytery of Detroit, preached the sermon; Rev. Wm. S. Curtis, D.D., delivered the charge to the pastor, and Rev. A. L. Brooks, that to the congregation. On the next evening, the same Pres bytery installed Rev. A. L. Brooks, late of Chicago, over the Church in Peoria. The Moderator presided, and put the con stitutional questions : prayer was offered by Rev. George Duffield, Jr. ; Rev. A. K. Strong preached the sermon, and the THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1865. charges were delivered by Rev. Willis J. Beecher and Rev. Edwards Marsh. These installations place two of the most important churches of that Presby tery in good working condition. MOVEMENTS OF MINISTERS. - Rev. John C. Taylor has removed to the new, but prospectively important village of Corry, on the recently opened Philadel phia and Erie Railroad, to assume the charge of. the Presbyterian Church in that place. Rev. Francis Rand has taken up his residence in New Milford, in this State, having accepted the call of the Church there. Rev. E. P. Tanner has , transferred his residence from Bar den to Pardeeville, ; and that of Rev. 0. W. Norton is changed from Brooklyn, Mich., to Somerset, Hillsdale County in the same State. SYNOD Or NEW YORK AND NEW JER SRY.—We have before made mention of the meeting of this Synod. From the Narrative, just published, we glean the following, items. The language of the Presbyterial reports indicates that there has been a steady advancement in spir itual interests, conversions occurring in almost all the churches, and revivals of religion in a few. Hudson Presbytery reports special interest, during the Sy nodical year, in Chester and Unionville. Long Island Presbytery, while deplor ing an unusual spiritual drought, records a refreshing showei upon the Church in Shelter Island. It also speaks cheer ingly of a general improvement of the Temperance cause. The Third Presby tery of New YOrk reports one revival, and states that the aspect of the whole field is eminently hopeful and progres sive. The new church enterprises of the Fourth Presbytery of New York, have enjoyed encouraging, prosperity and success. The Presbytery of Brooklyn reports two revivals, the payment of one Church debt of $22,500, and the erec tion of a mission school building at an expense of $12,000. From Newark Presbytery, most, of the churches report conversions. The work of grace is not arrested, and the good seed continues to be swim in the hope of a more abundant havest. The hearts of the pastors seem to be warming to their work. In the report of the Presbytery of Rockaway, the encouraging statement is made that "showers of heavenly grace have 'fallen on a few of the churches." A revival in Honesdale, Pa., is reported by the Presbytery of Montrose. The work in cluded heads of families, youth and chil dren. The preaching of the Word has been listened to with more than usual attention in several of the congregations. The decease of the Rev. Edwin E. Mer riam, -late pastor of the Church in Salem, is recorded in sadness. STEAM PROM NEW ORLEANS TO LIVER POOL.—New Orleans, Nov. 7. —The steam ship Alabama, Capt. Grover, crossed the bar to-day, bound for Liverpool, with a full cargo of cotton and other produce. This vessel is the pioneer of a semi monthly line that has just been established, and the prospects are favorable for making it a weekly line at an early day. Cotton can be shipped to Liver pool at a much less rate by steamers hence than if sent by the old route via New York, while the gain in time is more than ope-half GENERAL ASSEMBLY'S EDUCATION FUND. • • • ReCeipts from May 1, 1865, to Nov. 1,1865.

WILLCOX & .GIBB6' TWISTED LOOP -STITCH FAMILY SEW- ING MACHINE The great importance of the Sewing Ma: chine, in its hygienic not less than its com mercial aspect, is now so generally conceded, that it is deemed superfluous to occupy time or space in discussing that part of the subject. In this country, where early attention was given to their adaptation to household pur poses, sewing machines are now scattered throughout the length and breadth of the land, not only in stores, shops, and manufac tories, where the competition of trade compels their use; 'but ifr private families of every degree. Many persons even who can ill af ford the outlay, wisely consider that it is bet ter to do without articles of ornament or luxury, than one that does away with the fear of that old-fashioned torment of every household—the family sewing. But notwithstanding its immense popu larity, and its being regarded as an essential element in the domestic circle, too . Many house wives at the present date are doomed to the drudgery of the needle, consequent upon the difficulty "of deciding between sewing ma chines," among the many varieties submitted to public approval. And truly a searching investigation'ivnecessary, or the purchaser will probably be much disappointed at the differ ence between the actual and expected results; for it is notorious that scarcely a machine is put upon the market, however (in its incep tion) designed 'for, wanufacturing purposes exclusively—heavy, complicated, and unme chanical in - cimstruction—but is represented in newspapers, circulars • prospectuses, etc., as a model of '" combined simplicity, strength, and beauty—ergo, THE MACHINE FOR THE FAMILY !! It is only by careful, intelligent, personal scrutiny, or by availing one's self of the prac tical experience of those familiar with sew ing machines, and who have tried the Wilcox and Gibbs Machine, that a satisfactory deci sion can be-reached. This searching investi gation anti reference to parties using the Machine isiwhat the proprietors particularly invite—confident that in their own language they will 2 4 iroborate and indorse the truthful represent.% 'on herein set forth, "that the Wilcox an Gibbs' Machinestands pre-eminent i i amongSt its rivals as the most simple and compact in its construction, the most e f ficient in its okra:Sion, the most durable and econom ical in ewe A hence by far the most satisfactory in its re alts. Where once used, it ever has been, and, indeed, cannot possibly fail to become, wherever introduced, the universal , <and'exelasive favorite. Its present enviable repntationtiand increasingly extensive sale, are mainly' attributable to the fact that pur chasers, after trial, invariably recommend it to their friends. Nine out of ten that have been sold have found a market in this way, as it is well known that but limited publicity has been?' given to it in the papers, while it is not necessary to add, hundreds of thou sands in hard cash, have beet, expended by other leitding sewing machine companies in that way. It has been the practice of manufactufers and venders of sewing machines, to illustrate by diagrams, the variety of stitches made with machines in general use, ostensibly for the enlightenment of the public, but really to show the titch in which they are more par ticularly terested in the most favorable light, in all ca es making a false exhibit of the others. 7 e Wilcox& Gibbs' Sewing Machine Compan are content to present their pro duction ' the patronage of the public, upon its intri is merits alone, being - quite satisfied with the distinguished favor with which it has beenzeceived, wherever introduced, and therefore make no invidious comparisons. The twist given to the thread, in forming the loop, (by which it is crossed between each loop,) has au important influence in strength ening the hold of the thread in the cloth, and also on ttie beauty of the stitch on the under side. It will readily be perceived that with a short stitch, (the thread receiving frequently the additional friction put upon it by the twist,)- the seam will be much firmer than if made by the ordinary chain-stitch. The fastening of of the stitch renders it as secure against ripping as hand-sewing. The various contrivances to facilitate work, .such as hemmers,fellers, corders, binders, Ltucli v ers, quitters, braiders etc., furnished with these Machines, exhibit the same in genuity in their construction as characterizes the Machine itself, and any appliances that may be necessary to adapt the Machine to special purposes in manufacturing, are readily furnished. The Willcox & Gibbs' Patent Heniming Guides are particularly useful. As first- made, they proved very satisfactory ; but a patented improvement, making them self-adjusting, so that no difficulty can arise in placing them accurately, render them pre eminently so. As an evidence of this superi ority, it may be mentioned that they are ex clusively employed by the various manufac turers, both in this country and Europe, in the production of the great variety of " magic ruffling,'' "stitched-frilling," "eollarettes," etc.,-which have been so extensively intro duced of late. In conclusion, we beg to observe that, com manding inventive and practical, mechani cal talent of the highest order, it has been devoted to•the production of "THE MACHINE FOR THE MILLION !" Simple, Compact, Efficient, Durable, and Complete. That their success is complete, an inspection of the Machines, and the unanimous approval of all who use them, will demonstrate. Were it otherwise, and their earlier convictions as to the advantages of the Willcox and Gibbs' Twisted Loop-btitch over any double-thread stiteh extant had not been strengthened and Confirmed by the experience of themselves and others, the public will believe them when they, tell them that the talent which jias ena bled them to produce the only single-thread machine in the world, which has (for so many years) survived the combined opposition of the numerous parties interested in the sale of double-thread machines, would have been (instead of stemming the tide of popular favor) directed to the production of a double thread machine, and, from the success which has attended their improvement of the single• thread stitch, doubtless, with like favorable re sults. This argument, they trust, will have weight with all who have in any way acquired a prejudice against a single-thread machine to induce them to give these Machines, which differ so very materially, in their essential features, from all others, a fair examination, keeping such prejudice for a moment in abeyance ; see them in practical operation have the peculiarity of the "Twisted Loop- Stitch explained, and witness the ease and facility with which they are worked ; confi dent that all must be impressed with their Peculiar fitness for family.purposes, and that the manufacturers have indeed produced THE BEST FAMILY MACHINE IN THE WORLD.

The powers under the Charter of the "UNION MIN ING COMPARY, are unlimited, for mining Dnr- The Company has purchased several very valuable Gold and Silver Mines, located near Canon City and Watertown, in Big Creek Mining District, on the western 'slope of the Toiyabe Mountains, Reese River section4ander County, Nevada, and near the over land stage route and the ,projected railroad to the Pacific coast. The Superintendent and one of the largest stock holders of the Company, are already at the mines. and one of the Directors is on the.way to Nevada. It is designed to construct a quartz-mill of 50stamps capacity, which will work 50 tons of ore per day. The mines of the Company are now being opened and developed under the direction of an experienced and competent Superintendent, and are estimated by practical mining and mill engineers to be the most extensive' nd valuable mines of any Company in the world. It should be borne in mind that after the mills are once constructed, the expense of running and repairs, are very small and the earnings enormous. Forty-nine thousand and nine hundred shares of the stock have been placed to the credit of the Trea surer, in trust, to be sold as directed by the Board of Director, to purchase machinery to work the ores, and for the general operations and expenses of the Company. A statement has recently been received from L. D. Chi Mon, Bag., who opened and was developing the mines, that the ore grew richer the deeper the mine was worked, and that by his estimate, the Mine that was archased by the Coinpany, (the wh.de capital f which is only $500,000,) is worth at least one million dollars in gold,—which should make the stock worth more than $lO per share; and should the ore continue to grow richer as is usually the case, AS it is worked below the water line, the value of the stock will be enhanced in proportion, Two very large and valuable ledges in addition to the above, also belong to the Company. The Board of Directors have decided to sell stock at $5 per share,—feeling assured that as Boon as machinery is at the mines, the stock will command a high premium, and that large dividends are sure to be made. Subscriptions will be received at the offioe of the Company to the working capital. OFFICE "UNION MINING COMPANY," 417 ARCH STREET,
