We give an abstract of it : In the widening influence and grow ing usefulness of the work entrusted to their care, !lie Committee find ample justi fication of its inception, as well as stimulus for its prosecution. They trust that the prosperity which now crowns the enterprise is but the token of that future enlargement which shall make it an instrument of bless ing to our churches, our country, and the kingdom of Christ. During the period now under review, ithe Committee have added to their list rooks and tracts, which, they are assured, will be gladly received and used by the churches. Keeping before them the wants of their constituency, spread over so broad a surtace, and in circumstances so widely differing, they have aimed to putlish that which would prove of value to the greatest number. If any book or tract should seem to some less needful, let it be remembered that, under the varying circumstances of 'the city pastor and the prairie missionary, of the church with wealth and the church ,with poverty, what to one is superfluous is lo another a grateful boon. For the abun lant commendation which their issues we thus far received from pastors, church =hers, and the press, the Committee we every reason to be ,thankful. It will ), as it has been, the steady' aim of the immittee to winnow the works submitted their judgment, so that the wheat may retained and the chaff rejected. .

It has given Committee much satisfaction to .find ‘t this attempt to supply an existing It meets the approval of the churches. the larger city churches, it is hailed as t the book for the lecture-room ; and in village and country churches, it is wel led and admirably adapted for congre ;ional use.

The issue of these new works, and the increasing means for their diffusion by sale id by gratuitous distribution, are telling ion the business success of the enterprise. wing to the cessation of a large amount of les for the army made the previous year the Christian Commission, we had feared Ant the sales of the past year would not equal those of the preceding one. Bui we are happy to report a somewhat larger total, viz., $26,255 56, as sales for the year ending March 315t,1866. Adding to this sum books and tracts gratuitously dis tributed, to the value of $4299 27, we have a total circulation of $40,554 83. In view of the youth of our enterprise, this result is very gratifying. That our work will grow not only steadily but rapidly is our trust, for we have abundant evidence of its ad aptation to the wants of our churches and country. GRANTS Our grants of books and tracts have been received with 'the warmest thanks by our feeble churches and Home Missionaries all over the land. That an agency of this character is needed, and that it will prove widely useful as a supplementary agency to our Home Missionary work, cannot be questioned by any one conversant with the facts. During the past year our Commit tee of Home Missions have been commis sioning men from the Atlantic coast to the shores of the Pacific, to labor as Home Missionaries, as Presbyterial Missionary Agents, as Synodical Missionaries. Enter ing upon their work of organizing new churches, and resuscitating those feeble and ready to die, they immediately need what the Home Missionary Committee was not organized to furnish, but which the Publication Committee was intended to supply. Not merely in new States and Ter ritories; not only in States lately desolated by war, but in the old States also, in Dela ware, in Pennsylvania, and in New York, as well as in the Central West and West, a multitude of our churches will hail• the aid which their brethren may and should furnish them through the press of their own Publication Committee. . The increasing number of applications for donations received by the Committee, indicates the increase of appreciation of the work laid upon them by the Assembly. These applications are not to diminish, but to increase, for the call of Providence to our branch of the Church is " to go for ward!' Our correspondence shows that there is not a State in our connection in which there are not mission fields right fully appealing to the benevolent depart, ment of our publication work. AN APPEAL In view of this fact,rthe Committee may.. properly ask our :pastors to recognize this call, , and see that the collection for "Pub lication" isregularly taken in their churches at a set time, in each year: Some of our Sabbath-schools have sent, during the year past, contributions for the assistance of children less favored than themselves. Such gifts will be gladly re ceived, and directly appropriated to needy Sabbath-schools connected with our chur ches or missions. We beg of our brethren to remember that the Publication Commit tee have no collecting agents—that we de pend solely and entirely upon them for free-will offerings to this good work for the Lord's sake. • THE PRESBYTERIAN MONTHLY In compliance with the instructions of the last General Assembly, The Presbyte rian Monthly, a magazine representing the Committees charged by the General Assem bly with its works of benevolence, has been issued. The subscription price has been made low, with a view to secure its wide circulation, as it is believed that the dif fusion of the information which it contains will be the basis of an increase of giving, that will fully compensate for the expense incurred by its publication. Subscriptions 'to the magazine come in well, yOt not so many as we wish. Our desire is that it may go into every family in, every •one of our churches.

THE PRESBYTERIAN HOUSE The enlarging business of the Committee, and the increase of stock, call for enlarged acoomodations. Accordingly an extension of the building is in process of erection,: in the rear of the bookstore and on the west side of the lot. This addition will be 22 feet wide, 103 feet deep, and two stories in height. The lower floor and basement will be used by the Committee, and the second story will be rented. PRESBYTERIAL COMMITTEES The recommendation of the General As sembly, that " each Presbytery appoint a minister or elder to see to it that the Pub- lication cause is presented annually to the churches in its connection, and to secure contributions to it," has been acted upon during the past year to a very gratifying extent. In some cases there has been a zealous attention to the work of securing a contribution from each church, and in creasing interest in the circulation of pub lications, deserving of the thanks of the Church, as well as of the Committee, whom it has encouraged and strengthened. It is hoped that the. Presbyterial agents for Pub lication will remember that the success of the work depends, under God, much upon them. Their action or inaction will be followed in very ' many churches of the Presbytery by a corresponding 'action or inaction. Any expenses incurred, if re ported to the,Oommittee, will be gladly repaid. The Report treats also of Colportage, and notes the appointment of Rev. S. W, Crittenden, as Business Superintendent. The officers are Rev. Albert Barnes, Chair man; Mr. Wm. L. Hildeburn, Treasurer; Rev. John W. Dulles, Secretary and Edi tor. Taw Spirit of Christ sweetly calms the soul of the suffering: believer ; no t by taking away all sense of pain, but by over coming it by a sense of his love. THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, MAY 24. 1866. A writer in The Episcopalian of May 5, makes out a case which may well startle other denominations implicated, as well as his own, and which especially shames the petulance of those so-called Christians, who are ever complaining of the calls for pecu niary contributions for the cause of Christ. He says : • A very suggestive train of thought is started by the . following facts—which may be allowed to speak for themselves. By the journal of the General Conven tion of 1862 (the latest at hand), as far as can be gathered from the imperfect char acter of the tabular Digest of the various Dioceses, it will be seen that, for the three years preceding that General Convention, the total amount of contributions by twenty Dioceses was about $3,310,482 54. These reports are, some of them, avowedly imper fect. Now supposing, for the sake of mak- 1 ing the most liberal allowance for the im perfections, and for the unreported amounts expended in pew rents, &c. &c., we double this sum total. We shall find it to show about $6,600,000 (in round numbers) con tributed by one of the most wealthy eccle siastical bodies (if not the moat wealthy) in the country, . as represented by twenty Dio ceses, for the support or propagation of , the Gospel'here, and in heathen lands. But it is to be remembered that this is' for three years ; which, on an average, gives $2,000,- 000 'a year, as the recognition of -" Stew ardship" by twenty Dioceses : New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticiit and Maryland, being the largest contributors. This is suggestive fact number one. Number two is gained from the New York letter in the Philadelphia Press of Monday April 9, 1866. There has been a grand "ball season" in the Metropolis during the past winter. It has come to an end. "leis' eitimated by a statistician,,,ko has 'kept an interesting record' Of these amusements, that the fignires and items show the probable cost" of this one species of " amusement," to the pleasure seekers of a single city, daring a single " season." Tickets, Carriages, Suppers, .. Gloves, .. Ladies' dresses (some ex ceeding $1000) Gentlemen's dress, . From an estimate of the number of Epis copalians who were in this vast pleasure seeking throng, it is inferred that the ratio of expenditure for personal gratification to that for the religions and charitable objects of the Church is the same as that shown above. Thirty and a half millions ! The amount expended on social gaiety alone being in a single season nearly five times as much as the whole Episcopal Church, by a liberal estimate, expended during three years upon the various objects of religious care ! Will it not be well to remember that one day there will be to each one a solemn audit Of such accounts—" Give an account of thy stewardship, for thou mayest no longer be steward ?" . "A WHITE MAN'S GOVERNMENT." Hon. Daniel Clark, of -New Hampshire, made an able argument in the United States Senate for equal suffrage recently, from which we take the following Mr. President, my house once took fire in the night-time. My two little boys were asleep in it. When I and their mother were away, the neighbors rushed into it, saved the children, and extinguished the flames. ' When I reached it, breathless and exhausted, the first exclamation was, " Your children are safe !" Can you tell me how mean a man I should have been, and what execration I should have deserved, if the next time these neighbors came to my house I had kicked them out of it? Tell me, then, I pray you, why two hundred thousand black men, most of whom volun teered to fight your battles, who rushed in to save the burning house of your Govern ment, should not be , permitted to partici pate in that government which they helped to preserve? When you enlisted'and mus tered these men, when your Adjutant- General went South and gathered them to the recruiting office, and persuaded them to join your ranks, did he _or any one tell them this was the.white man's government? When they came to the rendezvous, did did you point to the sign over the door,-- "Black men wanted to defend the white man's government ?" When, you put upon them the uniform, of the United States, did you say, "Don't disgrace it: this is the white man's govern ment?" When they toiled on the march, in the mud, in the rain and the snow, and when they fell out of the ranks from sheer weariness, did you cheer them on with the encouragement that " that this is the white man's government ?" When they stood on picket on the cold stormy night to guard you against surprise, did you creep up and warm their congealing blood with an in fusion of " the white man's government ?" When, With a wild hurrah, on the double quick, they rushed upon the enemy's guns, and bore your flag where men fell fastest, and death made its wildest havoc, where explosion after explosion sent their man gled bodies and severed limbs flying through the air, and thus fell in glacis, ditch, and scarp, and counter-scarp, did you caution them against such bravery, and remind them that this was " the white man's government?" And when the struggle was over, and many had fought their last battle, and yon gathered the dead for burial, did you exclaim, " Poor fools ! how cheated I This is the white man's government ?" No, no, sir; you beckoned them on by the guerdon of freedom,—the blessings of an equal and just government, and a good tine coming. And can you now deny it to them? Do you say they have that freedom? Slavery is abolished. li True; but w h a t is, that freedom worth ' which they have no means to maintain, and . which de ends upon the . uncertain o and un defined Protection of another 3;1 intlianexato. THE CASE WELL PUT. Sum total expended, $30,635,000 Many years ago, a deacon in, one of our New England churches became subject to a mild form of insanity. Being inoffensive, he was permitted to go at large and attend public worship, where he usually behaved with entire decorum. According to the custom of those days, be occupied the " Deacon's Seat," in front of the pulpit. One Sabbath the minister preached a ser mon on the subject of maintaining peace with all men. He first dwelt upon the duty, and then suggested various means of keeping the peace. The deacon was ob served to be much interested from the first; but during the discussion of the second head, he turned toward the pulpit as far as the inconvenience of his seat would per mit, and fixed his eyes on the preacher. At length -he rose, to his feet, and with his back to the congregation, gazed earnestly into the speaker's face with an excitement of manners, plainly significant of something special on his mind. Perceiving that his pastor had concluded his second head, and was about passing on to another division of the discourse, he became quite uneasy, and finally spoke out—" Permit me to sug gest," said he, " that there is one other im portant means of keeping the peace which I you have not mentioned." "Ali, deacon," said the pastor, "and what is that ?" "A substantial Ate rail fence," was the em phatic reply: I have often thought of the crazy dea con's c xpedient for keeping the peace ; and must say, that taking , mankind as they are, it is one that cannot be' dispensed with. When I have seen two neighbors, after try ing to have all things common, falling out with each other, and quarrelling with bitter animosity, I have said to myself, "The deacon's fine rail fence would have- pre vented all this." When I have seen two friends alienated, in consequence of trusting everything to each other's honor , in their business rela tions, and . neglecting all written contracts and formal settlements, I have thought: of the deacon's fence. When I have seen Christians of different denominations trying to force themselves into a union of worship and labor, forwhich they had not the requisite preparation of heart, and fomenting new quarrels' by the attempt, I have sighed to think how much more real union would have . resulted from the " fine rail fence." 4332,000 575,000 764,000 764,000 It were better,indeed, if no such barrier were needed. But since human nature, even when sanctified, is so imperfect, it is folly to attempt a constrained and unnatural union of parties. whose diverse sympaties and interests will only cause irritation by coming in contact. The dividing wall may, it is true, mark our infirmity; but we should gain nothing by its absence. Though an evil, it prevents far greater evils; and m.ay be regarded as incidental to the best good of society.—Puritan Re corder. 18,800,000 9,400,000 A STITESMAN'S THREAT, The late enlightened and liberal Count Cavour ' the Prime Minister of Victor Em manuel, with a thorough comprehension of the genius of Romanism in its effort to re press free thought, and resist the spirit of the age, threatened the overthrow of Papal domination, not by fire and fagot, the fa vorite weapons of Rome, but by the intro duction of modern improvements. "I will attack Rome," said he, "by railways, by the electric telegraph, by agricultural im provements, by establishing national banks, by gratuitous education on a large &tale, by civil marriages, by the secularization of con, ventual property, by the enactment of a model code, embodying the most lenient laws in Europe, and by the suppression of corporeal punishment. I will place the spirit of modern expansion . face to face with the old spirit of obscuration ; I am quite certain the former will triumph. I will es tablish a \ blockade of civilization around Rome. If she undergoes a modification, she will come to us; if she remains un changed, she will, by constant comparison, become so disgusted with her state of in feriority, that she will throw herself into our arms to escape destruction." As a re sult of this far-seeing policy, wherever the liberal rule of Victor Emmanuel has-extend ed in Italy, schools are multiplying, indus try and enterprise are increasing, property is rising in value, and, as a necessary result, the power of the despotic and bigoted priesthood is gradually but surely waning. RIOTOUS OPPOSITION TO ANGLICAN MONKERY. The attempt of the Rev. " Father" Hunt, Incumbent of Northmoor Green, near Bridge water, to import the services of the so-called Benedictines into his Easter-day display of ritualism has led to disgraceful outrages. On Saturday night the church was entered, the decorations were destroyed, the clergymen's vestments were cut to pieces, and the sacra mental wine was drunk. On Sunday morn ing, when the " Benedictines" had arrived, the church was crowded to suffocation by a mob of ruffians, some of whom coolly lighted their pipes and began to smoke, while'others raised the most discordant noises, "We won't go home till morning" being among the sounds which rendered it impossible to proceed with the service. Mr. Hunt, how ever, ascended the pulpit, and commenced a service, in which he rebuked the violence of those present. On his returning to the chan cel the noises were resumed. Dogs were set howling, a tin canister flung about, and so forth. A gentleman attempted to stay the tumult, but in vain, and the incumbent again ascending the pulpit gave a brief• discourse from John xi. 15, stoutly rebuking the con gregation as being worse than heathens and savages.— Weekly Review.
