r la-c , l the Committee in a position to labor with : , h , :.rful courage. As it was received, it was applied to the discharge of existing obligations, to bringing the Committee's work upon a cash basis, to the issue of new books and tracts, and during the past year to an enlargement of the accommodations at the Pres byterian House, rendered needful by theincreasing business of the Committee. Increase of .Publications.—Whilst the finances of the Committee have thus happily improved, their list of publications has as decidedly enlarged. Ten years ago, (when the present Secretary entered the service of the Committee,) the treasury of the Committee contained three thousand dollars of debt and some uncollected subscriptions; its catalogue four tracts, three books, and an Almanac. Now our publications number three hundred and-fifty-seven. Of these one hundred. and twenty-seven are leaflets, seventy-one tracts, and one hundred and sixty-six books. These publications combine the denominational with the evangelical, and make provision for the young and old, the family, the Sabbath-school, and the Church. Improved Business Facilities.—This increase in our stock of publications has been accompanied by a not less important progress in our ability to give them circulation. At the outset, the Committee had no commercial character or connections. , Hence, the issue of our early books did not command for them a sale. Purchasers do not go to small concerns for the supply of their demands.' The trade will not draw much from a slender list, Now, "The Presby- terian Publication Committee" is known to "the . - trade," and' recognized as a power by the writing and reading public. Whilst its list of publications has swelled, its sales have risen from $1715.06 for the year ending May, 1, 1858, $45,190.73 for the year which now expires, indicating, at a glance, the in crease of the Committee's business power and facili- ties, Few as have been the years since the Committee possessed any facilities for production and distribu tion, those years have yielded results that may well encourage its friends. The tens of thousands of books of devotion and instruction, of praise and worship, of reading for the young, of catechisms and tracts, numbering millions of pages, that have been sown broadcast through our land, by sale and by gift, are seed that cannot fail of rich fruits. To refer to but one item who can tell the good effected by the 375,000 books and • tracts sent from our Publication-house to the army and navy during the late war? The Work Only Begun.—The Committee, in pre senting to the churches this cheerful view of the pro gress made do not intend to convey the impression that the work may now be left to take care of itself; our satisfaction is, that a good foundation has now been laid upon which to build ; a preparation made for wide-spread usefulness. The work is only fairly begun. the question is, whether the outlet thus pro vided for the Church through THE PRESS shall be used;--whether, through this organization, the De nomination will meet the immense demand that comes, from our vast country for aid to enlighten the ignorant, to instruct the inquiror, to build up the Sabbath school and strengthen tthe Church, New Publicatzons.—(The Committee here add a list of their new issues during the year just passed, in cluding besides the Presbyterian Almanac, 5 tracts, 4 books in flexible•and paper bindings, and 'twenty five bound volumes ;-16 of these last numbering in all 4,151 pp. In the preparation of these they have subsidized the pens of Revs. Dr. Nelson, Mr. Barnes, Dr. Gillett, Dr. Wm. Adams, Dr. Josiah Hopkins, Dr. March, M. R. Vincent, Chas. F. Beach, as well as Mrs. Mullens, Mrs. Hildeburn, Martha Farquhar son, E. L. Lewellyn and many others not named. As 'these have already been noticed in our Editor's Table according to their merits, we will only take the liberty of again commending Dr. March's beautiful Walks and Homes of Jesus; Dr. Gillette's England Two Hundred Years Ago; . Dr. Nelson's Benefits of the Sabbath.) The Committee say: 'The Social Hymn and Tune Book continues to make its way into new Churches, and to give great satisfaction. SiX editions, fifteen thousand copies in all, have been exhausted in its one year of life, and the seventh edition is now being sold. But as there were those who did not desire the Mu sic, the Committee have issße.d the HYMNS alone, with the same order and numbefing, in a neat 16mo volume, under the title of Social Hymns. In muslin, 75 cents. We may add that the Church Psalmist still main tains a firm hold upon the affections of the Churches, as is evinced by its introduction into new congrega tions, and the sale during the past year of nearly nine thousand copies. The Presbyterian Monthly, the magazine recording the benevolent movements of the Assembly, first issued January, 1866, is now in its second volume. With the commencement of the present year, it was decided by the Committees represented in its pages, that it should be sent gratuitously to all the pastors and stated supplies of our body, with the understand ing that they would Promote its circulation in the Churches. - - - - - German Worit.—=-It was resolved, by the last Gene ral Assembly, "That a special committee of five be appointed, who shall prepare fresh tracts and books, or, if thought desirable, translations, to be published in the German language, in co-operation with the As sembly's Publication Committee. " This Committee have conferred with-the Publication Committee, and are maturing plans for this special work. Grants.—The Committee have expended in the purely benevolent department, during the year, $5,500.95. Of the grants made, some have gone to needy Sunday-schools, some to our ministers, some to theological students. Tracts have been .furnished to Home - Missionaries for distribution, and Hymn Books to the young churches that are springing up along our advancing frontier line. From the army and navy have come calls, and even from the distant shores ofChina, India; and Africa, where oui Ameri can Presbyterian missionaries feel that they have a claim upon the Church which they represent among the heathen. To make these donations is a grateful duty, and the only drawback to the satisfaction of the Committee, in this branch of the work, is, that the churches do not enable them to do it far more largely and. liberally. They believe that the time is not far distant when the churches will see in a clear. light their duty thus to assist the weak and needy. En- TRACTS from letters received by the Committee, which are given in the report, fully illustrate the truth that we have &missionary work to do througli the Press which cannot with a good conscience be left undone.

New Budding.—The enlarging business of the Committee, and the increase of its stock, calling for an increase of, accommodations, an extension of the Presbyterian House has been erected the past year. The addition made is upon the west-side of the lot, and in the rear of the former bookstore it is twen ty-two feet in width, one hundred and three feet in depth, and two stories in height, with a light and airy cellar below. There is room upon the lot for a still farther extension of the building, in the rear, with a forty-four feet front.upon Sampsom street, whenever, the business of the Committee shall demand such an enlargement. The contribution of $3O at one time constitutes a corresponding member, and entitles to one dollar's worth of the Committee's publications yearly, for ten years. The contribution of $lOO, at one time, constitutes an honorary member, and entitles to five dollars' worth of publicatjons, yearly, for life.

ROCIIESTER, May 20.—The General Assembly met again this morning, and after the usual devotional exercises, the resolution of fraternal greeting to the General Assembly of the Other branch of the Church (Old School), now in season at Cincinnati, was taken up. After a few remarks from various members of the Assembly it was adopted without a dissenting voice, and immediately despatched . f)y telegraph to Cincinnati. Rev. E. J. Adams then addressed the assembly in behalf of his own race, our lately enfranchised citi zens. Ile spoke well, and presented some extremely able arguments in favor of the colored population. His own labors in Charleston, S. C., have been suc cessful, in a high degree. The, question of systematic benevolence was dis cussed at length, but no definite action was agreed upon. • The Committee on 'Fore,ign Missions presented their report,. which was considered and adopted. The judicial case of Silas Miller, from the Synod of Illinois, was heard. Dr. Denham,, of the Irish deputation, preached before the assembly this evening, REPORT OF THE JOINT COMMITTEE ON RE ' The joint committee of the two General Assemblies of the Presbyterian Church, appointed for the purpose of conferring on the desirableness and practicability of uniting these two bodies, deeply impressed with theresponsibilitics of the work assigned us, and having earnestly sought Divine guidance, and patiently de voted ourselves to the investigation of the questions involved, agree in presenting the following for the consideration and, if they see fit, for the adoption of the two General Assemblies : Believing that the interests of the Redeemer's king dom would be promoted by healing our divisions; that practical union would greatly augment the efficiency of the whole Church, for - the. accomplishment of its divinely appointed work ; that the main causes pro ducing division have either wholly passed away, or become in.a great degree inoperative, and that two bodies bearing the same name, adopting the same constitutions, and claiming the same corporate rights, cannot be justified by any but the most imperative reasons in maintaining separate, and, in some re spects, rival organizations, and regarding it as both just and proper that a reunion should be effected by the Churches, as independent bodies on equal terms, we propose the following terms and recommenda tions, as suited to meet the demands of the case : First. The reunion shall be effected on the doctrinal and ecclesiastical basis of our common standard. The Confession. of Faith shall continue to be sincerely re ceived and adopted, "as containing the system of doctrine taught in the Holy Scriptures." and its fair historical sense as it is accepted by the two bodies, in opposition to Antinerniamsm and Fatalism, on the one hand, and to Arminianism and Pelagianism on the other, shall be regarded as the sense in which it is received and adopted ; and the government and discipline of the Presbyterian Church of the United States shall continue to be approved as containing the principles and rules of our polity. Second. All the ministers and churches embraced in the two bodies shall be admitted to the same stand ing in the 1.1 rib ed body which they may hold in their respective connections up to the consummation of the union ; and all the churches connected with the united body, not thoroughly Presbyterian in their organization, as soon as is permitted by the highest interests to be consulted, [shall be advised to per fect their organization.] No other such churches shall be received, and such persons alone shall be chosen commissioners to the General Assembly as are eligible according to the constitution of the Church. Third. The boundaries of the several Presbyteries and Synods shall be adjusted by the General As sembly of the United Church. Fourth. The official records of the two branches of the Church for the period of separation shall be pre served and held as. making up the one history of the Church, and no rule or precedent, which does not stand approved by both the bodies, shall be of any authority until re-established in the united body. Fifth. Corporate rights now held by the two Gen eral Assemblies, and by their beards and commit tees, shall as far as practicable, be consolidated and applied for their several objects as defined by law. $465 51 $101,389 44 Sixth. There shall be one committee on boards for home and foreign missions, and the other reli gious enterprises of the Church, which the churches shall be encouraged to sustain, though left free to cast their contributions into other channels if they desire to, do so. Seventh. As soon as practicable after the union shall be effected, the General Assembly shall recon struct and consolidate the several permanent com mittees and boards which now belong to the• two 2,405 00 LATEST BY TELEGRAM UNION. [BY' TELEGRAPH. TO THE PRESS.] assemblies in such a manner as to represent, as far as possible, with impartiality, the views and wishes of the two bodies constituting the United Church. Eighth. When 4t. shall be ascertained that the re quisite number of Presbyteries of the two bodies have approved the terms of union as hereinafter provided for, the two General Assemblies shall each appoint a committee of seven, none of them having an official relation to either the Board or Committee of Publication, who shall constitute a joint commit tee, whose duty it shall be to revise the catalouues i of the existing publications of the two Churches, and to make out a list from them of such books and tracts as shall be issued by the United Clirch, and any catalogue thus made out, in order to its adoption, shall be approved by at least five members of each committee. Ninth. If, at any time after the union has been effected, any of the Theological Semenaries, under the care and control of the General Assembly, should desire 'to put themselves under Synodical control, they shall be permitted to do so at the re quests of their Board' of Directors, and those semi naries that are independent in their organisation shall have the priVilege of putting themselves under ecclesiastical control, to the end that, if practicable, a systein of ecclesiastical supervision of such-insti tutions may , ultimately prevail through the entire United Church. - - Tenth. It shall be regarded as the duty of all our 1 judicatories, ministers, and peOple in the United Church, to study the things which make for peace, and to guard against all needless and offensive re ferences to the causes that have divided us, and, in order to avoid the revival of past issues by the con tinuance of any usage in either branch .of the Church that has grown out of former conflicts, it is earnestly recommended to the lower judicatories of the Church that they conform their practice in relation to all such usages, as far as•eonsistent with their convictions of duty, to the general custom of the Church prior to the controversies that resulted in the separation. Eleventh. The terms of re-union shall be of bind- ing force if they shall be ratified by three-fourths of the Presbyteries connected with each branch of the Church, within one year after they shall have been submitted to them for approvali • Twelfth. The terms of the re-union , shall be pub lished by direction of the . General Assemblies of 1867, for the deliberate examination of both branches of the Church, and the joint committees shall,report to the General Assemblies of 1868 any . modifieation of them they may deem desirable, in • view of any new light that may have been received during the year. Thirteenth. It is recommended that the Hon. Daniel Haines and the Hon. Henry W. Green, LL.D., of New Jersey; Daniel Lord, LL.D., .and _Theodore W. Dwight, LLD., of New York; and the Hon. William Strong and the lion. George Sharswood, LL.D., of Pennsylvania, be appointed by the Gene ral Assemblies a committee to investigate all ques tions of property, and of vested rights, as they may stand relative to the matter of re-union; and this committee shall report to the joint committee as early as the Ist of January 1868. Fourteenth. It is evident that in order to adapt our ecclesiastical system to necessities and circumstances of - the United Church, as a greatly enlarged and widely extended body, some -ehanges In the constitu tion will be required. The joint committee, there fore, request the two General Assemblies to instruct them in regard to the preparation of an additional article on the subject, to be reported to the Assem blies of 186& CHARLES C.

His diligent studies have brought him into intimate ac quaintance with the whole field of Church history, as it has been explored by previews, research and famil iarized by the works of the best historians. He has combined the profoundness of German learning with what we may call American practicalness in producing a history which cannot be otherwise than acceptable to those who love to trace the progress of Christielnity, under the guidance of one who not only possesses competent ability, but deep, seriousness and reverence. . . .

SHERMAN'S NEW PATENT AS YOU LIKE IT SKIRT This is not only a new fashion, but a new article of Skirt, made on an entirely new principle, so novel and yet so perfect that the ladies contend it should be called Perfection. We would here call particular attention to the As You Like It, or flexible joint, extending down the front of the skirt; it is so constructed that the springs fold inwardly, but not outwardly, and readily yield to the slightest pressure, thus allowing them to collapse, so that the skirt occupies the smallest possible space while sitting, riding, or in passing through a crowd, and yet the moment the pressure is removed, the skirt resumes its original and beautiful shape. The novelty and utility of this contrivance needs but be seen to be appreciated. But for want of space we might here publish thou sands of extracts from letters we are daily receiving, speaking in the highest praise of these Skirts. Our Corsets are now so well known for their supe rior shape, material, and workmanship, that it is per haps unnecessary for us to spehk.of them further than to say that we have greatly enlarged our assortment of styles, both of our own make and importation and can now safely defy competition.
