KKFOKMF.n CHURCHES.
Ministerial —The Rev. J, Howard Nixon, pastor
of the First Church of Indianapolis,.sailed for Eu
rope last week, on account of impaired health.—The
Rev. Dr. Robert Lee, minister of the old Greyfriars
Church at Edinburgh, and one- of her Majesty's
chaplains for Scotland, died at Torquay, March 14th.
His death renders vacant the professorship of Bibli
cal Criticism in Edinburgh University. : Dr. Lee was
also a dean of the Chapel Royal,' He- was chiefly
known as the leader of the movement for introduc-'
ing a liturgy into the Presbyterian worship, and the
paralytic stroke which brought on his death was
caused by his nervous excitementovgr charges based
mi these innovations which were to. be brought
against him in last year’s Assembly. Hi 3 Congrega
tion still adhere to the Liturgy.
Erastianism in Kentucky.— The Court of Ap
peals has recently set aside the decision of the Gen
eral Assembly of the 0. S. Churqh, -(which re-affirm
ed a prior decision of the Synod of Kentucky) by
declaring that certain elders in the Walnut Street
church, Louisville, are not legal members of the ses
sion thereof although elected by the congregation
and duly ordained by competent authority. When
it is remembered that elders are not civil, but purely
ecclesiastical officers, it will be seen that the Presby
tery of Kentucky is justified in declaring that:—
"If these decisions be established as law, not only
the elders, but the ministers also of the Presbyterian
Church are subject to deprivation by civil tribunals,
and not they only, but the bishops and ministers of
the Methodist and Episcopal Churches, the elders and
teachers of the Baptist and Christian Churches,'and
the prelates and priests of the Roman Catholic
Church. And as the authority Which deprives per
sons ecclesiastical may also restore to, office persons
who have been deposed therefrom by the spiritual
courts, it is clear that the whole power of Church
Government is now assailed in some of its vital prin
ciples.”
On the other hand the Central Presbyterian (Rich
mond) which has spent the years of its feeble exis
tence in sneering at a supposed “ Erastian" mixture
of civil and ecclesiastical interests and authority in
the North now simply sneers at this protest, as not
likely to convince itspolitical friends the Judges of the
Kentucky Court of Appeals, Nay, Dr.S.K. Will
son, a signer, if not the author, of that great. Anti-
Erastian document “The Delaration and Testimony"
says of the case, in words which sound like an echo
of Dean Stanley's plea for the union of Church and
State: “If our religious liberties are in peril, it is not
any word or act of ours that Has brought the danger.
Let it be remembered by all, that the overthrow of
those liberties hi ail past time has usually come from
the ecclesiastical, not from the secular side. Even
the tyranny and persecution of the State has been
instigated, invoked, urged on by. ecclesiastical per
sons claiming to act by the authority and in the name
of the Head of the Church. Ail’d the'liberties of the
Church have not seldom Been found safer urider the
protection of a SaxotT Elector than in the hands of
an infallible Vicar of Christ and his Tridentine Gen
eral Assembly or council. Historically; .this we know
to be true; the philosophy of the strange fact we do
not assume to explain.” ,
Congregationalist. Wednesday. March 26th,
the connection of Rev. Prank Russell with the Ply
mouth Church, Philadelphia, was dissolved by ad
vice of a council; Rev. Dr..-Smiley was dismissed
from the pastorate of the Second Church, and Rev.
Moseley H. Williams was installed over the same.
This church is now to all appearance in a thrifty,
Sowing state. —Rev. Chauncey Goodrich of New
aven died very suddenly, March 27th, of neuralgia
-of the heart, at the age of 50. He was the grandson
of Noah Webster, and has been largely engaged in
editing and revising the various editiotis of Webster's
dictionary.—Rev. Joel H. Linsley, : D. D. died at
Greenwich, Conn., March 23d, at:the age of 80, He
was at one time pastor of the South Church in Hart
ford, and afterward of Park Street Church, Boston.
Thence lie went to Ohio, becoming President of Ma
rietta College, and he had occupied his present field
since 1847. Rev. Benj. F. Jackson, of Charleston,
S. C., writesthat his church (Plymouth Congre
gational) has 225 communicants. 1 I'he S. S. has in
creased from 90 in October last to 448 scholars.—A
new church is to .be organized a Macon, Ga,, April
17th. Rev. J. L. Dudley of the South Church,
Middletown, Conn., accepts the call of Plymouth
Church, Milwaukee.—On Past day, ,a church of
twenty-four members was organized under the name
of the Union church at Whitten ton village, Mass.,
making the fifth church in Taunton.—A correspon
dent of the Cong, and Sec. writingfrom Philadelphia,
says:.“Mr. Williams has been preaching for the
Second Church, for some months, and lias gained
their affection and confidence. A Sabbath-school of
two hundred pnpils is under the care of the Young
Peoples’ Association of his church. Dr: Smiley is
at the head of a Seminary in Salem, N. J.' Several
Northern preachers have already applied for the
pulpit of the. Plymouth Church. Were the laymen
who come to Philadelphia from your Congregation
al churches, as ready to fill the pews of our .Con
gregational churches as 'your preachers seem to be
to fill our pulpits,'Congregationalism would soon
become the power here that it ought to he."—The
Plymouth Church, Pittsburgh, having sold their
edifice on Hand street, now occupy Mozart Hall, on
Seventh street. Under the ministrations of Mr.
Bnsworth this church is steadily growing.
Items.— The Church membership of the different
denominations in Illinois is given as follows : Metho
dists, 80,000; Baptists, 52,000; •Presbyterians (of
every name), 30,000; Congregationalism, 16,000;
Episcopalians, 5,000; UmVersalists. 5,000; Unita
rians, 3,000; Campbellites, 10,000; Lutherans 6 000.
There are various other lesser sects, in all probability
numbering 25,000.—“ About six millions of dollars
are annually paid by the Christian people of the
United States in salaries to their ministers.. It cost
ten millions to keep the dogs who eat the crumps
from tbeir masters’ tables.” - Fifteen millions are ex
pended on the lawyers and ten million on the crimi
nals of this land.

Xow is the time to PuLso-ibo for the
GREAT FAMIEY NEWSPAPER.
It is Cheap because its Circulation is Larger than that of
any other Newspaper.
NOW IS THE TIME TO FOltM CLUBS.
The Xew York Weekly Tribone
ia printed on a large double-medium sheet, making ci'riit
pages of six broad columns each. It contains nil the im
portant Editorials published in THE DAILY TRIBUNE
except those of merely local interest; also Literary and
Scientific Intelligence; Reviews of the most interesting
and important New Books; the Letters from our Inr*© corn"
of Correspondents; the latest news received by XeTcjrraph
from Washington and all other parts of the country; u
summary of all important intelligence in this city and
elsewhere; a Synopsis of the pneccdings of Congress ;md
State Legislature when in session; the Foreign News re
ceived by every steamer; Exclusive Reports of the pro
ceedings of the Farmers' Club of the American Institute;
Talks about Fruit, and other Horticultural and Agriculture
al information essential to country residences; Stock, Fi
nancial, Cattle, Dry Goods, and General Market Reports;
making it, both for variety and completeness, altogether the
most valuable, interesting, and instructive WEEKLY
NEWSPAPER published ui the world.
The Full Reports of theAmercan Institute Farmers’
Club, and the various Agricultural Reports, in eaeh num
ber arc richly wprth a year's subscription.
Ever since its commencement illE WEEKLY TRI
BUNE has been authority upon the farm. We make fea
tures of the Farmers' Club, and permit no question of in
terest to the agriculturist to pass without comment and
advice. When it is remembered that this advice is given
by one of the mo*t conscientious, farmers in the country,
the render may estimate its value. It has been well ob
served that a careful, reading and study of the Fanner*’
Club Reports in THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE ulono will
save a farmer hundreds of dollars in his crop. In addi
tion to these reports we have arranged to print the best
things written on the subject of ngrieullure by American
and foreign writers. We intend to inerense those feature*
in the coming year very largely. As it is, no prudent far
mer can do without it. As a lesson to his workmen alon*,
every farmer should place THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE
upon his tabic every Saturday evening.
THE TRIBUNE is the bent and cheapest paper in the
country. This net said in a spin of boastfulness. We d«*
not claim any essential superiority over our neighbors, ex
cept the superiority of place and opportunity. It has fal
len to New York to create the greatest newspapers of the
country. Here? concentrate the commerce, the manufac
tures, the mineral resources, the agricultural wealth of the
Republic. Here all the news gathers, and the patronage
is so large that journalists can afford to print it. A news
paper can be made in New York for half the money, pud
yet with twice the value of newspapers elsewhere. This is
the strength of THE TRIBUNE. We print the largesr,
and cheapest, and best-edited weekly newspaper in the
country. There is little special merit in this. Vv e have all
the advantages around iis. We have great Daily and
Semi-Weekly editions. Their machinery and resources
ate only a part of the Weekly. This p.iper has long bad
the largest circulation in America, and we have tried 10
justify that confidence. The result is that we have so sys
tematized and expanded our resources tLat every copy of
THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE contains «s much matter hs h
duodecimo volume. Think of it! For two dollars, tbc
the farmer in the course of one year buy* ns much reading
matter as though he filled a shelf of hi* library with fifty
volumes, and those volumes containing the greatest t corks in
the language. The force of cheapness can no further go.
THE WISEKLY TRIBUNE is the paper of the people.
Here the eager student may know the last lessons of sci
ence. Here the scholar may read reviews of the best books.
Here maybe found correspondence from all parts of the
world, the observations of sincere and gifted men, who
serve TUB TRIBUNE iu almost every country. All the
elaborate and intricate machinery of our e>tablishuient—
perhaps the most complete in America—ia devoted to the
purpose of making the best and cheapest Weekly newspa
per in the world. We think we have reached that point
io giving for two dollurs fifty-two duodecimo volumes a
year.
Tltß TRIBUNE i* strong by reason of its enormous cir
culation and great cheapness. It baa long been conceded
that THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE bus the largest circula
tion in the country. For years we have printed twice ;s
many papers, perhaps, as all of the other Weekly editiot 8
of the city dailies combined. This is why we are enabled
to do our work so thoroughly and cheaply. The larger our
circulation, the better paper we can make.
What are the practical suggestions? Many. Let every
subscriber renew his subscription, and urge his neighbor to
do the same. Jf a man cannot afford to pay two dollars,
let him raise a club, by inducing his neighbors to subscribe,
and. we shall send him acopy gratis for his trouble. No
Newspaper so large and complete as THE WEEKLY TRI
BUNE was ever before offered at so low a price. Even
wbenour Currency was at par with gold, no such paper but
THE TRIBUNE was offered at that price; andTiiE TRI
BUNE then cost us larleVs than it cow dues. We haw
solved the problem of making the best and cheapest news
paper in America—perhaps in the world. Let us see if we
ouunot give it a million weekly circulation.
