pubsequent misunderstanding, the propriety of
miffing the clause, fair historical sense,'. &c., and

Id 'hie Presbytery also claims that the right to exa-
Mine applicants for admission to Presbyteries is in

Proposed General Assenkbly for India.—A
Ircular has been addressed to all the Presbyterian :
issionaries in India, in order to- ascertain if some.
•reliminary step cannot be taken
,towards uniting,
'resbyterians generally in one General Assembly in,
ndia. The idea was originated at a meeting of the.
• nod of Northern India, held at A.mbala in No-,
ember, 1865, when it was stated. that 4fie,different
'dies of Presbyterians in India, having no corn
, on organization, lose the advantage,of combina
on and co-operation. It is not proposed that such
clesiastical union should at all cut the several bo
es loose as missionaries from their respective,
issionary Boards; but that, with the consent. of
eir several Assemblies, a General Assembly should
organized in India for all ecclesiastical' purposes,
d still report to and receive reports , from their re
,ective Boards as before.
Epilicopallaal.--The N. Y. Episcopalian says :

THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, JANUARY 23 1868.
The report of the Committee of the Pan-Anglican
Convention on Bishop Coleus° gives general satisfac
tion. Its important parts are as follows: " While
we accept the spiritual validity of the sentence of
deposition pronounced by the metropolitan and
Bishops of the South African Church upon Dr. Co
lenso, we consider it of the utmost importance for
removing the existing scandal from the English
communion, that there should be pronounced by
some competent English Court such a legal sentence
on the errors of the said Dr. Colenso as Would• war
raat the. Colonial Bishoprics' Council in ceasing to
pay his stipend, and would justify an appeal to the
Crown to cancel his letters patent. . . Judging,
therefore, that the See is spiritually vacant, and,
learning by the evidence brought before them. that
there are many members of the Church who are
unable to.accept the ministrations of •Dr..Colensti,
the Committee deem it to.be the duty of the metro
politan and other Bishope.of South - Africa ; to, pro
ceed, upon the election of the clergy and laity in Na
tal, to consecrate one to discharge , those!spiritual
functions of
,which these ,tnembers. of the:Church
are now in . The report, says a coternporary l
was signed by all the members of `the COinmittee,
and appeared to give .general: satisfaction, eo
so that contrary to all entectatieu from .outside, it
was received without 'discnssion ;'and it was, Weun
derstand, akreed that the . reportarShould be printed
and circulated.. And thus has ended _the Lambeth
Conference of 867.

of a Churchman in his feelings. He originated tihe,.
evening service, now so poßtilar among„ the 'Unita,

vespers. He never reade 'prayers from his, book of
worship, but keeps up-the old Puritan custom of
free devotion. He is Broad Church, and never cells
himself Anti-Trinitarian. He accepts Dorper's
definition of the Godhe,ad, that "Gocl . is one . absolute

necessary and fiscal permission to rebuild has been,
refused. In one , case, that of the Misaien at

are 'now on hand, and I do .not know of a'single
case this year in which permission has actually

—Dr. West of the A. B. C. P. M., writes from
Siyag : I find the. Bible now in a : arge majority of
the. Armenian-houses where I am galled. In Sivas,
I have made it a point for: a long time to inquire;
so that I do not Speak- vaguely. This shOws what

Armenian and Greek schools, and the people ea-,
knowledge that this has been from missionary influ

with the Scriptures. They will quote passage after
passage readily, and seem to understand and , appre
elate the meaning.--Havadoric is'one of the out
stations to Bitlis, of the American' Boird's , Eastern
Turkey Mission. The people are few and! poor.
Yet in addition to the support _of the schools,
they: have done nobly towards building a, place of
worship, only requiring $4O towards its completion.:
.They live among the mountains, subject to the ever
annoying, plundering Koords; and the preacher
there writes home, that those of the villagers who`are
shepherds spend what leisure time they . ean-while
watching their flocks in reading their Bibles, which
they carry about with them, while others, who car

Ang the fifteen
nationalities in the Robert College - the Bulgarians
take the. lead, both in mental and moral deielbp
ment. It is also true in the schools for Bulgarian
boys and girls conducted by the American mission

scholars have far surpassed the expectationeof their
teachers, the girls especially. • There seem to be a
steadiness of character, a capability of patient
study, and an appreciation of truth and learning be
yond what are found among Orientals generally.
Afrioa.—Suddere and disastrous uprisfsg against the
Mission at AL/freak-We. Rev. J. A. Lamb of the Church
Missionary Society, writes October 19th : Last Sun
day morning, without any previous notice, or even
the rumor or intimation ()ranch a thing, the. Abbeo
kuta bellman went round early, declaring that there
was to be no assembly:for divine worship that day.
Soon after companies of people proceeding from a
meeting at the Bashbrun s went to the. different
churches and broke them down to the ground, ex
cept.lkija, which the chief Ogadife defended. They
then broke down the Mission-houses, except lkija,
and plundered everything, hot even perMitting Mr.
Wood, or Mr, Faulkner, on Mr. Allen to go away
with the actual clothes they required on their bodies.
