Penn Presbyterian Church, Philadel phia.—We were present, last Sabbath ratt ing, at the reopening *f the Penn Presb - rian Church, and were surprised and delight ed to find the change which had been wrought in a few months in the appearance of the church building. It is now one of the most pleasant and attractive churches in the city of Philadelphia, and the people of the con gregation deserve great credit for the zeal and liberality which they have shown in re newing and beautifying it. A large audience was in attendance, to whom Dr. Musgrave, the pastor, preached an appropriate and ex cellent sermon. We trust that a bright and pr osperous future is before the Church, after so many years of struggling and discourage ment. The congregation continues to in crease and, in the growing part of the city in which it is placed, ought to increase more r apidly.—Presbyterian. Change of Relation.—The Congregational Church in Pioneer, Williams county, Ohio, has adopted the Presbyterian form of gov ernment, and connected itself with the Old School Presbytery of Maumee. New Mission Chapel in New York.— The Brick Church (Dr. Springs) is engaged in the erection of a chapel for mission and m ission-school purposes on a very liberal scale. The ground and building are to cost $40,000, and the expense of sustaining the e nterprise will be proportionally large. Cumberland Presbyterian Revivals.— A correspondent of the Western Cumberland Presbyterian, in a letter from West Tennessee, after speaking of numerous revivals in that region, says :—" There have been other precious meetings recently in the Western District, but I leave to other brethren, hav ing more complete information, to give you the result. Suffice it to say, that in Gibson a nd Obion counties, there have, probably, been, under the ministers of our Church, at least three hundred conversions and two hundred accessions to our Church, in at least ten weeks. All praise and honor belong to God for such displays of His mercy and power. Organized churches have been greatly strengthened and built up. The servants of our Master have felt constrained to praise and magnify His holy name for His great for bearance, love and mercy. No power short of the blessed Spirit could accomplish such wondrous works of love as we have been permitted to witness." Revival in Kentucky —A correspondent furnishes the Western Presbyterian with the account of the dedication of the Ebenezer Church, near Greensburg, Ky., on the Ist of August, and a series of meetings immediately following. "The meetings," he says, " ap peared to grow in interest and solemnity,from the outset. The Spirit of God was evidently there, as was manifest from the prayerful anxiety of many of God's people f'or a re freshing. Many persons became deeply con cerned about their souls. Even at the ex citing election day the men of the neighbor hood went and voted and immediately re turned to the house of God. At the tune the writer left it was not possible to say, defi nitely, the number of hopeful conversions. It is probable there were thirty, at least, of this class, and over that number, earnestly inquiring the way of lite." British Items.—The Established Church Presbytery of Edinburgh have resolved to take steps to raise an endowment fund for the Tolbooth or Assembly Hall Church, in order to prevent its suppression under one of the annuity-tax acts, on the death of its late pastor, the Rev.

John JETamilton, of Renton, gave the valedictory address. His theme was "The Temptations to Sloth."—The congregation of the First United Presbyterian Church in Kelso have presented an elegant gold watch and a handsome purse containing 20A sover eigns to the ,Rev. Mr. White, their junior pastor, to show the high pleasure they feel at his late decision to remain in his present charge when he declined the call from the South College Street Church, Edinburgh. Congregational—The Congregationalist, speaking of the coming on of the annual meetings of the State Congregational organi zations, says :—" There are now twenty-one States and territories in.which these General Congregational bodies are organized, besides the Congregational Union in Canada, and also that in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. These two last-named bodies, though outside of our territory, are closely allied with us in bonds of ecclesiastical faith and fellowship." —A writer, giving an account of the instal lation of Rev. P. B. Fiske, in Peacham, Vt., says:—"This church has never had but three pastors previous to*Mr. F., and all have died and are buried there.

Baptist.—A new Baptist church edifice in Germantown, a suburb of Philadelphia, is nearly finished, and it is expected that a church will be organized and ready to occupy it next month. The correspondent of the National Baptist says of it :—" A good Pres byterian brother, recognizing the importance of the field we are about to occupy, has sub scribed $5OO. This is more than any other single subscription that has yet been received, with the exception of those of the two breth ren on whom nearly the whole responsibility of the building rests."—One of the vic tims of the cholera in Cincinnati is Rev.

Missionary. On the 22d of June a band of from forty to fifty men, armed with clubs, attacked the Mission-house at Mahanad, India, and forcibly carried off an inquirer of full age, that they might keep him in durance andr'prevent his baptism. The young man is above seventeen years of age, a fact which may be proved by a scholarship examination which he 'recently attended: Efe-is of the Kayust caste, is one of the most distinguished students of the Mission, and has for some time been an intelligent inquirer into the truth of Christianity. With a view to bap tism, he took refuge in the Mission-house, where on the previous night his father and friends had a long interview with him. De feated in their attempts to shake his faith, they returned toward midnight with an armed band and carried off the youth.—The Chris tian Instructor says of the Maharajah Dhu leep Singh:—lt will be gratifying to many to learn thatthis distinguished man has recently added to his great kindness to the United Presbyterian Mission in Egypt by presenting it, on the anniversary of his marriage, with £lOOO (about $5OOO in gold, or $7500 in currency)."—Twenty missionaries who were trained at the mission school of Pastor Harms, were lately ordained in Hanover for the missionary work.—At the anniversary of the English Church Missionary Society, Col.

Xisooliansons. —Of the Noon-day Prayer meeting recently established in San Francis co, The Pacific says :—" These meetings have been largely attended and participated in by the various clergymen of the city, and seem to have received the hearty concurrence and support of those Churches which are wont to sympathize with spiritual movements of this kind. Requests for ,prayer have been fre quent, and some remarkable answers to pray er noted. There seems to be a very wide spread feeling that God's set time to favor Zion has. come. There is certainly a wide spread and deep feeling that we need, above all things, a special manifestation of the Holy Spirit in connection with our Churches at this time ; that the great work which has been given them to do in this city and State may be carried successfully forward."— The San Francisco Ministerial Union, com prising most of the evangelical ministers of this city, at a late meeting agreed to invite either Rev. A. B. Earle or Rev. E. P. Ham mond to visit that place for evangelistic labors.

Revival Among Nu Orphans.--Ash ley Down is the name of the neighborhood near Bristol, England, where the orphan houses, under George Muller, are built. These have often been the scene of interest ing religious experience, and by latest ac counts a remarkable awakening is now in progress. Upwards of three hundred and fifty of the orphans have been brought under concern for their soul's, many of whom have found Jesus and are rejoicing in Him, During their leisure hours they want to pray and read the Scriptures ; notes of mutual encouragement and inquiry on spiritual sub jects are written to one another, and confes sion of sin is freely made. Mr. Muller, at a public meeting recently, said that since the Ist of January, 1866, upward of four hurr' dred and fifty orphans have beep awakened,' many of whom have been brought to a saving knowledge of the Lord. DEATHS. OBITUARY. , Died, in Danville. Pa., on the 14th ult., Miss SOPHIA HART, in the 77th year of her age. / ; Miss Hart was well known to many of the older members of our churches in this city. Her decease was sudden. After dinner, enjoying, seemingly. usual health, and while conversing with some friends, her head fell back on her chair, and with a sentence half uttered, she expired without a groan or a struggle. She was hoi.efully converted to God in 1821, during a revival of religion in the Presbyterian church ,bf Danville, under the labors of the late Rev. Nichrdas Patterson. Prior to her conversion, she had been ai gear and thoughtless young lady, but afterward she was thorough and hearty in her devotion- to the cause qf Christ. Some time after this she tame to reside in Philadelphia, and was under the pastoral care of Rev. Thos. H. Skinner. D.D., during his ministry • this city. She took a deep interest in the organization of e "Northern Liberties and Kensington Infant Seh of Society." and was one of its most .efficient manlrs. She visited the lanes and alleys or the northern art of the city, which, in 1827. was in a very sad moral condition, to collect little children for the Want Schools, and to invite the people to the meetings for prayer and exhortation established in the neighher tre hood. We doubt not many were brought to C list through her self-denying and persevering e rts. Many an ignorant and neglected child wasp ed. through her agency, under religions ins tors, many a ragged one was suitably clad, and y a poorwidow cheered by the counsel and help the ad ministered. i She , was a steadfast Christian, always ready for every good word and work. Cheerful and happy her self, she aimed to make all within the aphelia of her influence partakers of the same blessing. 4n all her business transactions, she acted according to the spirit and principles of the Gospel. Stern Christian integrity and truthfulness stamped all her purchases and sales. What was sanctioned, by custom, in com mercial circles, was no guide for her. The law of Christ regulated her conduct in the store, no less than in the sanctuary. Her piety was an every-day and everywhere piety. not confined to the Sabbath, but manifest in all she said and did. She has left a good record on earth. After a long life of patient continu ance in well doing, she has entered into rest, and is now with Jesus, which is far better. grid xstitris.

J. S. McMU anti% No. 808 SPRING GARDEN St., Philadelphia: [From the Portland Monthly.] SEMBIER COMPLAINT AND DYSEN TERY. Bowel complaints seem justnow to be the prevailing element, and any medicine that is everywhere accept able, and that is reliable, is a very desirable acquisi tion. From what we ba,ve seen, heard and experienced, we believe Davis's Pain Killer is this desideratum. For the best method of using it, we quote from the directions:— "For common bowel complaints give one teaspoon ful in a gill of new milk and molasses, in equal parts stirred well together; lessen the dose for children, according to thasge. If the pain be severe, bathe the bowels and back with the medicine. This mode o£ treatment is good in cases of the cholera morbus, sud den stoppages. &c. Repeat the dose every hour. "The quickest way ..I ever saw a dysentery cured was by taking one spoonful of the Pain Rillerin one gill of milk and molasses stirred well together and drank hot, at the same time bathing the bowelsfreelY with the medicine. Let the dose be repeated every hour, until the patientiS relieved." If every person who has reason to fear this fseset,", would provide themselves with a bottle of this medi eine, and use as occasion required, we believe a great amount of suffering and sickness would be saved. 1057-St , Cnre y o jor Corighs and Colda.-.•GOB'S COUGH BALSAM will be fauna's; riad.land l effieient Remedy for bard Cola.

Lossing!s United States SCHOOL HISTORIES. These Histories are now well known by many of our best educators as leading works in their depart meat. and their practical success wherever used in schools has denionstrated their great merit as text books. The series consists of three volumes, and is most admirable and complete in its adaptation to the wants of all grades of schools. The following are the titles and pribes of the three works: LOSSING'S . PRIMARY HISTORY, 11. 8,258 per, 12Ano. 01. 00 LOSSING'S COMJION SCHOOL HIS TORY,-11. S., 578 pp., 12ino. 1 75 LOSSING'S PICTORIAL HISTORY, 11, S., 420 pp., 12mo. 2 00 The first or Primary History, is intended for begin ners, and is written in a plain, pleasing style, accom panied by beautiful illustrations. The work is every way well adapted to primary classes. The second, or Common School History, is intended for the larger part of pupils in common or grammar schools. It contains compact, well-written statements of all the great facts of American history, clothed in language clear and elegant, and it is believed its use as a text-book will tend to make daily class reeita, tions in History one of the most profitable and inter esting of all studies. The third. or Pictorial History, is intended for stu dents in High Schools and Academies who wish a fuller work than the preceding. It possesses all the merits of the other works, being equally well adapted to all purposes of a text-book. Each of the three books of this series is copiously and beautifully illustrated with maps, views, and PM-traits; and neatly printed on highly-finished pa per. The'Second and Third Books contain notes re vealing many curious and important historical facts. which add greatly to their value as interesting text books. The chronological table of American events, the sketches of American biography, and the inser tion of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States, arranged for study and class exercise, are also among tho excellent fea tures of these works.

The undersigned from the first aimed at, secured, and now, to the greatest possible extent, retains an extraordinary selectness of patronage by which, from previous home cultivation, all punishments, threats, harsh language, and intimidation are rendered en tirely unnecessary. Love, advice, and everything else embraced in the unjustly ridiculed term, "Moral Suasion," produce as much order, industry, contentment, affection, and devotion as can be desired, and far more than can be secured by any other means. The former pupils have had, to an unusual extent, their aspirations so raised, and their minds so culti vated as to attain to the highest honors in college, and to the first places in business. Visitors are at all hours welcomed. They will find no staring, no shyness, no idleness, no whispering in the school-room—the perfection of order and good recitations. They will find on the ball grounds no teasing, no vulgar language, no use of tobacco, no thing whatever objectionable ,• and with this inno cence they will observe the fullest flow of youthful affection and joyousness. Small boys of seven, eight, and nine years of age, a most important period for great results, from Arch and Pine sts., and the streets between them, and from* Green street and its neighborhood, will be sent for in the morning and sent home at the close of a har , PY day spent in the country air. The health of Amen boys, instead of being impaired by overtasking, is greatly improved by frequent and well-timed recrea tion. The kind attentions and good examples of the young men and youth'are of great advantage to their younger companions. The Seminary is fortunately situated near the convergency of the railway over the Wire Bridge with the railways over Market 'street and Chestnut street bridges, so that, from the Schuyl kill, it is reached in a few minutes, and in about the same time by each line. It is surrounded by ample grounds, which are beautifully shaded and adorned in some parts, and in others stretch out into extensive lawns, suitable for our national game of baseball, and for other amusements.
