May, for seventeen collections for the great ob jects alone,—the wheels of the machinery. Now we have a channel. Here are men in whom we hove entire confidence. We shall stop all this, and rolieve those brethren from their severe labors for one, ani prepared to pledge myself to do the best thing I can with my church for this cause,-- something more for this year, We may say of churches as Virgil said of the rowers: Possunt gaia posse videntur. He explained how the money carne from Rome—not from the old lady in scarlet petti coats, but from one of his members travelling in Europe, who was the more impressed with the im portance of the work in hie own country by what lie saw there. Why, I almost feel like saying with John Foster: American Christians might almost be exempt from Foreign Missions, we have such a magnificent work on our own hands. D. W. Ingersoll, Elder from St. Paul's. The church at Zankota is a centre of influence for the whole Minnesota valley. It has revolutionized the whole population of that town ; 'a Congressman from that State declared that it is the centre of in fluence, instead of, as formerly, a certain man's saloon. This is the result of giving them a house. My conviction is that no church organization is safe until we have a house of worship. We ought to have $150,000 for Church Erection this year. Dr. Darling feared that the allusion too the $4OO reported as having been received from the corruption fund at Albany might lead many to think that cor ruption had existed in the Legislative body of the State. (Laughter.) He rose to defend that august assemblage from the consequences of such an insinu ation. (Laughier.) This .was not an evidence of corruption, but of purity. For this was a part of a fund raised by the liquor-dealers to oppose the ex cise law, and was probably the first money they had ever contributed to so worthy an object. lam ready to stand here and pledge my influence as a pastor. I have one little misgiving in regard to the appointment of a day to take a simultaneous col lection. The cause is new, and we must work up our people when and as we can. Dr. Goodrich, Chairman of Standing Committee. Precisely because it is a new object, we have ap pointed a day. The day is not absolutely fixed. The Commtttee on Devotional Exercises reported the following suggestions: That the reception of the Scotch delegation be made the first order of the day on Wednesday afternoon. That the Communion of the Lord's Supper be administered on Thursday evening under the direc tion of the Moderator, assisted by Dr. Adams and Dr. Darling. That there be no services or. Friday evening, in order that the members of the Assembly may have an opportunity of attending the meeting of the American and Foreign Christian Union to be held that evening. The report was adopted. The time for adjourn ment having arived, the session was closed with prayer. SIXTH DAY-WEDNESDAY, A. II The Chair was occupied during the devotional ex ercises by Rev. Chas. S. Robinson, D.D., of Brooklyn. The interest of these meetings has increased from day to day, and prayers were naked for young clergymen by Rev. Herrick Johnson, of Pittsburg. Dr. Shaw earnestly commended to the Commissioners, in their associations and in their prayers, the members of the households in which they were entertained, and par ticularly those ladies, whom the domestic duties con sequent upon their entertainment hindered from attending, and who would much enjoy these devo tional exercises. His mind was'deeply exercised, and he prayed that God would graciously bless the meet ing of this Assembly in the city. At the expiration of the hour devoted to conference and: prayer, the order of the day was taken up. This was the reception of delegates from corresponding ec clesiastical bodies. Letters from four delegates were read, stating that they, with their alternates, had un avoidably been detained, and presenting the regards of the Conventions from which they were accredited to this Assembly, and the Church which it represents. The following are the names and Conventions of these: Rev. A. S. Dwinnell, Presbyterian and Congrega tional Convention of Wisconsin. Rev. Isaac Walker, General Convention of Congregational Ministers and Churches of Vermont. Rev. J. George Butler, Evan gelical Lutheran Synod of the United States. Rev. 'George A. Jewksling, General Conference of Congre gational Churches in. Maine. The Assembly then rose to welcome the delegate from the General Association of New Hampshire, the Rev. E. G. Parsons, and the delegate from the General As sociation of Connecticut, the Rev. Robert G. Ver milye. They were received together, and the Modera tor replied to both in one addtess. Mr. Parsons first addressed the Assembly, bearing the Christian greet ing of the churches which he presented, and recount ed. their work and condition. He said the bodies were nearly related. Coming from the Puritan stock they had the same faith and characteristics. They were one of the smaller branches of the Congregation al churches. They have 20,000 communicants, 189 churches, 179 ministers, 150 pastors. They had scarcely held their own during the year. Their edu cational institutions were more than usually prosper ous. They are agitating the subject.of more adequate support for their ministers. In taking his leave he congratulated the Assembly, and said they in New Hampshire were closely watching them, and rejoicing with them in the prospect of speedy re-anion. Rev. It G. Vermilye, D.D., from the General As sociation of Connecticut, said their association was con stituted of ministers—no laymen. They had taken great pains in gathering statistics, and were proud of them. They had 47,000 communicants and 288 churches. 800 infants were baptized during the year. This rite was observed by them better than by any other body in their denomination. 'The accession by profession during the year was over 3,000, the largest since 1858. The net increase was about 2,500. These statistics showed religious advancement. A minister said to him that he was ashamed of his native State. He thought that shame arose rather from political than religious reasons. The good peo ple there have hope, which they trust will be one which will not make ashamed. H e spoke in favor of working each in his favorite organization with a Chris tian spirit and union of feeling. They were regard ing with interest the great question of re-union in the Prsbyterian Church. He believed that the great Christian work .cOuld . he more effectually done by a united body. He proceeded' to make some very com plimentary allusions 'to Moderator Nelson, saying to him that he would not venture to say them, but turn ing to the Assembly added. that, now that his back was tnrned, he might express his own high esteem for one whom they had fitly . chosen for their Moder ator, and who had, perhaps more than any other man, saved freedom to . the State of Missouri. [Applause.] Dr: Nelson, twenty-one years ago preached, for him. He remembered his sermon and his text, and he ought to have then foreseen from what he saw and heard of him that he would one day be Moderator of the Gen eral Assembly. , The ,loderator made his official response to both of these delegates as. one, representina '' one deriantina-. tion. He said.--You - are front New England, whiCh is still visible to the_naked.e.yor. (casting his eye to the great map of the United States, which hung be hind the pulpit, and.on which New 'England makes of course a very small show) 'and her influences felt wherever the breezes of freedom . are wafted. He would venture to request every man and woman in the house who was born in New England , to arise. A large number; perhaps onelourfh of those pre sent, immediately arose to their feet. The Doctor, who:should himself be included among those who had ,arisen, said he: did not.ask all to rise whose ancestors were born there. If he-had, he prey sumed all in the house, with the exception of his dear THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, MAY 30, 1867. brother immediately before him—one of the Irish delegates—would be on their feet. He had in his church two elders born in New Hamp shire. He could testify that their loyalty, patriotism, orthodoxy, and—you will not be offended if I say-- Presbyterianism. is as firm as the granite of their na tive hills. The Charter Oak, he understood, had been uprooted from the soil of Hartford, but it shall never be torn from the hearts of Presbyterians. Our two communions are so nearly alike that we can hardly tell them apart. Differing only in church organization we are really and truly brethren. He compared the different denominations to the different armies in the service, which rendered the army more efficacious if they all moved forward together upon the enemy. He spoke of occasional difficulties be tween our own body and the Congregationalists in the West, but said, if by mistake the different armies came in collision in the West, he should look to the older and wiser beads in the Ea,st to remedy the evil. Notwithstanding his near neighbour, Dr. M. Post, was understood to be a jure ditrino Congregational ist, in the thirteen or fourteen years of their truly pleasant and fraternal intercourse, the subject had not been mentioned between them. In conclusion he requested the audience to rise and sing two verses of the hymn !commencing, "How sweet and heavenly is the sight When those who love the Lord " THE. APPEAL CASE Dr: Canfield moved tb postpone the order of the day, so as to take up the unfinished business of the appeal of Silas,Miller. In 'his remarks in favor of the motion he stated that a telegram 'had been sent to the Moderator of the Synod of Illinois, asking hini, " Did Silas. Miller lodge with you a notice of appeal to the General Assembly ?" The answer was, "Yes." This was all he wished to say upon the question. lie was now satisfied, and cared not to have immediate action, but only that the subject should not be put entirely aside. It was made the first order for Fri day. SPEOL3L'COMMITTEE ON 'RE-UNION The following report of the Special Committee on Re. union was then read by Dr. Hawley: The Committee to whom was referred the Report of the Special Committee appointed by the last Gen eral Assembly to confer with a similar Committee on the desirableness and practicability of reuniting the bodies which they severally represent, would respect fully report That they have gtven the document committed to them a careful Consideraton, in view of its grave im portance, and the manifold interests it involves, in its relations to our own Church• and the progress of the Kingdom of Christ in the earth. It presents a basis for the proposed re-union, which, if ~the two Assemblies so order, is to be submitted to the delib erate examination of both branclkes of the Church for one year, subject to such modifications as may appear necessary or desirable within that period. It leaves the General Assemblies of 1868 free to act with re ference to these terms of re-union, in whole or in part, as providential signs may indicate ; and if advisable, to submit them to the Constitutional and final action of the Presbyteries. Ample Opportunity is thus af forded for a full . and deliberate consideration of the whole subject, in all its bearings, as they shall affect. local' interests.or the well-being of the entire Church. For this and kindred reasons your Committee Con clude it was not the intention ofthis body in.referring to them this proposed basis of re-union, that its sever al articles should be discussed at this, time and place ; and yet they cannot withhold their conviction, ex pressed in t'hese general terms, that results have al ready been reached full of promise and hope ; that whatever concessions bave been made; they only in dicate how hear the two parts of the divided Church have,approached each other; that nothing More and nothing less than Christian charity would dictate, has been yielded ; and that in the adjustment of any diffi culties or differences, a proper regard has been pre served for the honor and rights of the respective bodies to which the work. of their : Joint Committee is now submitted. The remarkable unanimity with which these initiatory proceedings have been conclu ded, after a thorough and frank discussion of the ba sis of union is full of encouragement, and whatever may be the ultimate result, much has already been accomplished for the healing of our divisions and the promotion of peace and good will in the Presbyterian body. Impressed with these considerations and gratefully recognizing therein the guiding providence of God in the successive stages of this work of concord, and es pecially the Spirit of wisdom and love given to His servants in their several conferences, we do .recom mend that this Assembly approve of the whole action of its Special Committee as declared in their'Report, and that the same Committee be eontimied for the purpose for which it was constituted. There is a single point on which the Joint Com mittee ask instructions from the two General Assem blies. It relates to the changes in representation, 4c., which will be required. to adapt our ecclesiastical system to the necessities and circumstances of the United Church. We would recommend that it be left to the Joint committee to - examine carefully the whole subject, and suggest such changes in the Con stitution as in their wisdom they may deem requisite. It is further recommended, that the Report of the Joint Committee be published, under the authority of the Assembly, for general distribution among our min isters and churches. It is also recommended that the Assembly appoint the several gentlemen designated by the:Joint Com mittee as legal advisers, and in case of the inability of any one of them to serve, the Committee have pow er to fill his place. . It is indicative, we would believe, of the temper of this Assembly, the largest during our history of thir ty years since the separation, that your Committee, though representing the extremes of our territory, and even the lingering memories of the conflict which culminated in the division, are of one mind in desiring the speedy and permanent re-union of our beloved Church. It is but reasonable to anticipate that the same spirit will characterize the action of the other Assembly, in the recollection of the fraternal, not to say magnanimous, advances made one year ago, and which gave, rise to present measures for re-union, and the hope increasingly and fondly cherished in the great PreSbyterian household. Other members of that renowned family, than those represented in the two Assemblies now in session, at home and across the sea, are. stirred in sympathy at the goodly pros pect, ,The friends of Christian Union everywhere claim an interest in the completion of our work, so happily begun, as another sign of the predicted day when all Christ's people shall 'be one, keeping the unity of the spirit in the bond of imace. (Signed) CHAS. HAWLEY, GEORGE A. LYON, WM. C. Itilisnrat, L. Ai. GLOVE% JAMES A. CARNAHAN. JOHN C. FARR. • The report was unanimously accepted and adopted. Questions of adopting the report of the Standing. Committee . on Home Missions came ups on which remarks were made by Elder Huntington, of Califor nia. The.churches of California are in favor .of re union. . Elder Barber, of Illinois, had one objection to this very excellent report, and that is, that it names no sum at which we should aim for Home Missions. He recommended half a million of dollars.

[ The.Anzerican Theological Review.] "We welcome this Commentary as upon the whole the best single exposition that can be found, compris ing all that is essential to a thorough, popular, and useful work. It treats the Bible as an inspired book; yet it is also critical, meeting and not giVing the slip to difficult questions. For textual criticism it affordS ample means. Its exegesis is concise and pertinent. The doctrinal and homiletical parts are handled effectively. It is not sectarian, bat adapted for use in all denomina tions.

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 superior shape, mate erial, and workmanship, that it is perhaps unnecessary for us to speak 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.
