    The Scottish Churches.—There are 2,600 Pres-
Jivtcrian churches i*n Scotland. Of these. J,OOO or
more belong to tfie Established Church, 1,000 to the
,- reC Church, and nearly 600 to the United Presby
terian body, as appears from the reports made at the
i, (|c annual meetings of these respective bodies.
From these it would also seem that the division
n liich took place iu 1843 between the Established
~n,l Free Churches, has been overruled for good to
loth Churches, The Established Church, for ex
ample, which never raised above from £40,000 to
V-,1) goo a year for all its schemes ol Home and Fo
"!j„n Missions, as well as Education, this year re
ports £130,000 as the amount raised, while the Free
Church, for all her purposes, reports £400,000"as the
voluntary offerings of her people. The Established
■Church has raised by special effprte£4oo,ooo,in ten
rears for Church Extension and endowments to
■Chapels of Ease. The Free ( Ch'u‘W;h has raised over
£fi 000,000 since the disruption, for the building of
churches, schools, msuises-and for education.'. 'The
United Presbyterian Church has also profited by the.
disruption, for it has provoked her,,“ to, love and to
rtnod works.” The income of that Church ,is nearly
double what it was thirty years ago, fend‘it still'con
tinues to prosper.' '
Union in Seotland.— After, the deoision in: favor
of Onion in-.the Free General Assembly. the keenest?
Anti-Unionists organised, a very-deform ine<l„oppqsi:!
lion in the form ofa sort of “Solemn, League and
Covenant.” ‘ A 1 secret- meeting was hel’d, 'iihd a
pledge signed to oppose the measure. a Dr, Candlish
~ot wind of the matter, and published.th.Oi pledge.
This has checked the opposition n Iftißegg,,Mr.
Main, Dr- Horatius Bonar, (tne sacred poet) Drs.,
Forbes and Gibsori, are flfo chief rh'en in Opposition;
This organized opposition if'tnot'
wholly thwart, the proposed .uriiont., Dr. Bonar
thinks that the United .Church woold.be politically,
strong, but spiritually,weak., , , ~, ,

Another ‘Union-.— Besides'the Presbyterian'
Olmruli of Canada, and the Presbyterian Clirfrch ofl
tlie Lower Provinces, each formed by the union of
free Churchmen and United Presbyterians, there
are in British America three branches of'the Estab 1

Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. - At: the tweent meets
nisof the Nova Scotia Synod, it was, announced
that negotiations lor organic union with the Church

Kentucky. —The Lexington correspondent Of the.
Cincinnati Gazette, (Aug. 3.) says“ The religious
war between Dr; Breokinridge and .Dr. Stuart
Robinson still continues, and threatens to spread to
every congregation.. Not long since the First Pres-*
byterian Church of this City split, and-now we hive
the Second Presbyterian Church rent in twain. The
great question in all these splits is, which ,pprty
shall hold possession of Church property, botli
parlies claiming it. Thie courts a re generally in
voked to settle the difficulties, but-during the legal!
proceedings, great contention arises as to who shall
hold in charge and arse the property. Sometimes
noth parties use the buildings, andget along arnica
my until the law decides tlie'question at issue; hut
in other instances thecliurenis locked lip tty one

THE
UNION PACIFIC
RAIL ROAD CO.
THEIR FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS
AS AH INVESTMENT.
The rapid progress of the Union Pacific Bailroad,
now building west from Omaha, Nebraska, and form
ing, with its western connections, an unbroken line
across the continent, attracts attention to the value of
the First Mortgage Bonds which the Company now
offer to the public. The first question asked by pru
dent investors'is, “Are these bonds secure?” Next,
“Are they a profitable investment?” To reply in
brief:
Ist. The early completion of the whole great line to
the Pacific is as certain as any future business event
can be. The Government grant of over twenty million
acres of land and fifty million dollars in its own bonds
practically guarantees it. One-fourth of the work is
already done, and tiie track continues to be laid at the
rate of two miles a day.
2d. The Union Pacific Bailroad bonds are issued
upon what promises to.be one of the most profitable
lines of railroad'in the country. For many years it
must be the only line,connecting the Atlantic and Pa
cific ; and being without competition, it can maintain
remunerative rates: 1
3d. 376 miles of this road are finished, and fully
equipped;with depots, locomotives, cars, &c., and two
trains are daily running each way. The materials for
the remaining'l4l miles to the eastern base of the
Bocky Mountains are" on hand, and it is under con
tract* to be done in September:
4th., The net earnings of the section already finish
ed are several times greater than the gold interest upon
the First Mortgage Bonds upon such sections, and if
not another mile of the road were built, the part al
ready completed would not only pay interest and ex
penses but be profitable to, the .Company.
sth. The Union Pacific Bailroad bonds can be issued
only as the road progresses, and therefore can never
be in the market unless- they represent bona fide pro-
perty.
6th. Their amount is strictly limited, by law to a
sum equal to what is granted by the U. S. Govern
ment, and’, for: which it. takes a second lien ns its securi
ty. This amount upon the' first 517 miles west from
Omaha is only $16,000, per mile. ;
7th. The fact that the.U. S. Government considers a
second lien' upon thi road a' good investment; and that
some of the shrewdest railroad builders of the couutry
have already/paidinfivemillion dollars upon tlie stock
(which is to them a third-lier,'; may well inspire confi
dence in a first lien.
Bth. Although it is not claimed that there can be any
better securities than Governments, there are parties
who consider a first mortgage upon Such a property as
this die very best security in the world, and \yho sell
their Governments to re-invest in these bonds —thus
securing a greater interest.
9th. As the Union Pacific Bailroad bonds are offered
for the present at.'9o. cents on the: dollar and- accrued
interest, they are the cheapest security in the market,
being 15 per centl less than U. S. Stocks.
10th. At the current rate of.- premium on gold, they
pay
Otter 2fine per Cent, 'interest.
