    ',lp quickly many dialects, stood the brunt of hard
,hips and occasional persecutions, and all the while
cleaned sheaves for the eternal garner. Lie has
I tist been removed from the scene of his labors
to the better land, at the very height of his
usefulness. During., the last English war with
China, when Commissioner Yeh had put a
price upon the heads of Europeans, he had
been quietly pursuing his work in a province
neighboring to Canton, when he was recognized by
his blue eyes as a foreigner, and sent to the com
missioner. By a merciful Providence his life was
,aved, and he was sent over to the English camp.
Since then he has been constantly pursuing his
pioneer work, heard of now here and now there,
but never at rest, and never without success in his
labors. Latterly he has been chiefly in Pekin and
the north. He died at New-chwang, a port in the
north. Hie death was caused by physical depression
and exhaustion, and was the result: of 'his life-long
and self-denying labors.
The mission in China is strong in agency. The
converts are singularly devoted, and "in an emi
nent degree are evangelists," and have been ever
making way into new,territory.
,The holy lives of
the baptized have produced a powerful' impression.
They have oft-titres: been bitterly persecuted in
towns and villageti. Their - property was destroyed;
they suffered imprisoiment, and they had to face
the loss of life; but they held fast. Very remark
able also was their hallowed observance of the
Lord's day, ".the binding and perpetual obligation
of which the missionaries faithfully preached."
The Irish Presbyterian Church have resolved to
co-onerate with the E. P. Synod in China, and have
sent out a missionary to help to fill Mr. Burns' emp
ty place.. . .
MonnOnism in England and Wale&—Though
the home' of Mormonism is in the 'United States,
all intelligent observers know ' that' its growth
is not from this country, and America `has to bear
the reproach of sheltering, but Europe that of feed
ing, this wickedness. The kall Mall Gazette stip,
a looped of Mr. Hepworth Dixon's scandalous and
libellous "New America:" "Any American book
maker, who wished to do a clever thing, had only to
go to Liverpool and there make inquiries about the
Mormons. He would probably be referred to Wiles,
and it he pursued his journey thither he would soon.
discover that he had hit upon the large . training
ground of Mormondon. He would find that we
rear the followers of Brigham Young, 'and that
America gets the credit of them. A thrilling pic
ture of the frightful state of social life in Great Bri
tain might be drawn from the presence among us
of strange sects. Wales is a great deal Dearer to
the heart of_ England than Salt Lake or Oneida
Creek is to anything which deserves to be called
' American ; ' and an enterprising traveller, gifted
with a lithe and sinewy style, might easily delude
a portion of his countrymen into the belief that the
Mormon nursery in Wales ban 'be safely taken as
an example of the relations which exist between
the sexes all over the country. If he did this, and
did it well, he would deserve to be considered a very,
'smart' man, for —to use a common phrase—he
would have paid us back in our own coin - . We send
shiploads of Mormons to America, and then write
books to prove that Mormonism is the natural fruit j
of the loose principles which prevail in America." 1
Evangelistic Work in Sootland.—Christian ac
tivity, in directly presenting the great truths of the
Gospel to the minds of the multitudes, has never
been so wide-spread and unremitting as in the past
year. The place and employment of what are popu- '
llarly known as "Lay Evangelists" have , been forced
on the attention of the Churches by the prominence
of these men in revival work, and by the blessing
that has rested on their labors. Most of them are '
working without any formal Church recognition,
and not a few without thepale of every regularly
rganiced Church. Out of this state of thin' &m
-ain abuses have arisen, and greater abuses are re- i
arded as sure to follow. Hence, while there is on
lie part of some an inclination to condemn and ig-
bore the Evangelist altogether, it is' generally felt
that, apart from the question of dnty, this could not
- done without great danger to the cause of reli
m. These laborers were in the field .and could not
put down; and it was far from desirable even. to
tempt it. Besides, the objections to the Evange
-1 on the grounds of extravagances of conduct
unsoundness of doctrine were the very reasons
/ the Church should, with as little delay as pos
te, take up the subject. It was agreed, both in the
P. Synod and FreeCh arch Assembly, to apppoint
littees, consisting of leading ministers and lay.
(including country brethren who knew - water.
is of the labors of Evangelists) to,consider the
eject. The claim for formal Church recognition
loudly urged by the Evangelists themselves, who
'e held public meetinga with a view to bringing
lefore the Christian public.
Obituary.—Rev. T. Mayne Reed, lif. A., one
the clerks of the Irish General. Asaembly, and
'ier of the novelist—Captain Mayne Reed—died
ntly at Drumgooland, near Rathfriland, County
. He was a man of marked ability and great
I ence of character. Before the union of 1840.
' in connection with ;Secession (or U. P.) Sy-
Free Church and the Freedmen.—At the
it meeting of the General Assembly Commis-
Dr. Adam, Glasgow, brought under the notice
Commission the deliverance of the Assembly
Amending demons' courts to make a collection
September or October in behalf of the Ameri
freedinen, and authorizing the Colonial Com- .
tee to prepare and issue an address on the sub-'
. There were, he said, 150,000 children in the
sole which had been set up amongst' the white ,
negro people' there were 40000 or more adults'
iding the night schools, and ai large stall' of
sere with Normal institutions already at work
)roviding for their intellectual necessities, and
is the testimony of all who had anything to do
the work, and of parties who had visited the
iern States, that the negro children were ex
ngly earnest and apt scholars ; and that in ex
woportion as they got knowledge and were train
), they became willing to work and exertthem

'lending the collection to be made on the
pr fourth Sabbath of September.

536 francs per annum—about $336,000. The Inde
pendent churches number 195 places of worship
and 98 pastors. There are six societies for the evan
gelization of France, which cannot however, reach
a hundreth part of the need.
A French Romanist on Protestant West-
Indian Missions.—Count Montalembert says:
" These missionaries are of all sorts,—Methodists,
Baptists, Independents, &c.,—and my faith obliges
me to regard them as heretics, as strangers to or
rebels against the truth which I profess ; but it does
not make me blind to the immense service which
they have rendered to humanity and to freedom.
I feel pleasure, on the contrary, in declaring that
the labors of the English missionaries in the West
Indies one of the noblest spectacles ever exhibited
to mankind. The influence of these missionaries
has been spoken of as a reproach to them. Gentle
men, what was the origin and nature of that influ
ence? They reigned over the negroes, it is said. I
admit it readily; but by what better, title is it possi
ble to reign over men ? Why, they found these poor
blacks, men and women, naked, and taught them to
clothe themselves ; they found , them living together
like brutes, and united them in marriage ;. they found'
them in ignorance, and introduced them to knowl'=
edge; they found them in. barbarous superstitions,
and thriw on them the light of the Gospel; in a
word, they found them in slayery, and conducted
them to freedom. And after this.they are , reproach
ed with the influence which th,Sy exercised. It is
the most legitiMate and fslicitous influence which
can be exercised by man vier ma,ll."'
Over-the-Border - Items.--The average ,stipend
of ministers in the. Canada. Presbyterian Church is
now $620 (in cola)' an average gain of $5O Fn the
past Synodical'year. There are still fifty ministers
who receive less than $5OO, and twenty-six less than
$400.=-Rev. Mr. Me Vickar has been appointed
Professor of Theology in the new Preabyterian Col
lege at Montreal.-On the 24th.of June the Estab
lished Presbytery of Ayr ordained Messrs. F. R.
Macdonald and Robert Campbell; preachers of the
Gospel, to changes in Nova Scotia, in connection
with the Established Church of Scotland.
The Organ Question Across the Border.—Th is.
question was before the Synod of,the Canada Pres
byterian Church in connection with an application
from one of the congregations in liontreal—that of
Knox church—to be allowed to use :an organ in
public worship, The opinion of .Presbyteries and
Sessions on the question had been taken, and the
result was that a majority of both were opposed to
the liberty sought for. This did not, however, set
tle the matter,' for a discussion, which extended over
a great part of four days, ensued. Among the nu
merous motions made was one to decline the-appli
cation from Knox church, and to declare the use
of instrumental music in worship : to be contrary to
the principles and immemorial, pra.ctice of the
Church, While another was in, favor of finding it in
expedient to prohibit instrumental music where it
was desired unanimously by a large majority of a
congregation. There was, of course? a good deal
of feeling, and ultimately a resolution was • carried
to the effect " That the-report of the Committee on
the overture , to Presbyteries be 'laid. op the table."'
From thiiiinding Dr. Irvine (ae represen4ng Knox
church) dissented, regarding it'ai virtually refusing
the prayer of the memorial from that cOneegation.
But on the next Meeting after the adjdurnment he
requested leave to withdra* his dissent. Apparent-
ly he had satisfied himself in the meantime that
the finding of, the Synod was equivalent to a declin
attire to pronounce any decision at. all i .and that,
in these circumstances, the congregation, if it chose,
might proceed in the . onsibil
matter_on its own respr

FREEDMEN'S MISSION.
The Board through their Secretary would call
the attention of the memberi l 4'the Reformed
Presbyterian Church to ,theynission that has been
in successful operation at Alexandria, Va., for a
number of years. It will be remembered, that
at the late 'meeting •of Synod, the resignation of
Wm. G. Scott, as superintendent, was accepted
in consequence of .impaired health. ' , ,
The other teachers, expressed a wish to con
time in that field of labor. It was also consider.
ed, that by co-operating with the N. Y. Union
Commission, the work of educating the Freed
men could be more efficiently carried on.
A letter has lately been received from. R. M.
Manly, superintendent of education in Virginia,
urging the Board to continue the school in Al
exandria. He states that the Freedmen's Union
Commission will occupy hut one of the large
buildings erected by the Bureau, and that he
would be very glad if' the Board ,of Missions of
the Reformed Presbyterian Church, would fully
occupy the other building which contains eight
fine large rooms. He wishes.to know how many
teachers the Board will send, the coming year,
stating, that it, will be a sad thing if some hun
dreds of scholars who, have been in the School,
shall for the, want of teachers, be turned into
the streets. With these facts before us we make
an appeal to all the congregations and members
of the Reformed Presbyterian .Church for ; aid.
Since the meeting , of Synodonly two congrega
tions have sent in their contributions to. this
fund, when the treasury was reported empty.
Before we can say how many teachers shall be
sent to occupy this field, we must know some
thing near the amount of funds, we can raise.
Relying upon receiving contributions we have
instructed our former teachers, , to resume, their
labors in September. They. have devoted them
selves to that work, and become interested in it,
and would be very unwilling to withdraw from it.
We trust this will not , be permitted. Their
salaries must be paid.' Whether any more teach
ers shall be sent, .depends on the response given.
Will not the different Pastors present. the claims
of this cause to their respective congregations,
and urge immediate contributions. If all will
do their share, it will not oppress any, and the
other building may be fully ocespied. All con
tributions for this object to be sent to the Trea
surer of the Board.

What is the Matter with You?
This Is the familiar question put to every invalid. In many
cases the answer is, "I don't know exactly, but I don't feel well."
Look at the countenance of the man or woman who makes this
reply, and you will generally find that the eyes are generally dull
and lustreless, the complexion sallow, the cheeks flaccid, and the
whole expression of the face dejected. Interrogate the invalid
more closely, and you will discover that CONSTIPATION, the result
of a disordered stomach and a torpid liver is at the bottom of the
mischief. "Thetis what's the matter." Whoever has experienced

complete division of labor,and by distributing the twenty thou

TAR EARNINGS OF TIIE UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD, from

IE6B, amounted to over " •
Four. Million Dollars,
which, after paying all expenses was much more ,than sufficient to

First. Mortgage Bonds
upon such a property, costing nearly three times their amount,
Are Entirely Secure,
The Union. Pacific Bonds run thirty years, are fin* $l,OOO each,
and have coupons attached. They bear annual interest, payable
on the Brit days of January and Jniy.at the Company's office in
the Citfof New York, at the rate, of six per cent. in gold. The
principal is'payable in gold at mat urity: The price is 10 4 2; and at
the present rate of gold, they paiti liberal income on their cost.
A very important consideration in determining the value of
these habits is the length of time.they have to run.
IL is well known that a long bond always commands a much
higher price than a short one. It issafe to assume that dming
the next thirty years, the rate of interest in the United States will
decline as it has done in Europe, and we have a right to expect
that such six per cent. securities as , these will be held at as
high a premium as those of this Government, which in 1857, were
bought in at from 20 to 23 per cent. above par. The . elport de
mand alone may produce this result and as the issue of a private
corporation, they are beyond the reach of political action: '
The 'Company believe that these Bonds, at the present rate, are
