The c/u of Circle- Mr have recently repaired their edifice at eon i-iderable expense, and they have a very neat and pleasant house of worship. The meeting of Presbytery was very pleasant and all the members manifested a deep and earnest interest in the work of building up the cause of Christ. N. Pr esbyt , ry of Chicago.—The stated meeting of the Presbytery of Chicago occurred Sept. 14th and 15th at Hyde Park, 111. Thirteen of the nineteen churches were represented. Rev. Albert G. Beebe was elected Moderator, and Rev. 0. A. Kingsbury,. temporary Clerk. A prominent and interesting feature of the meet ing was the examination of Mr. H. D. Jenkins, a graduate of Union Seminary, and late member of the Fourth N. Y. Presbytery. Mr.: Jenkins is to be ordained and installed , over the-Central Church, Joliet., on the 29th inst. The Fourth N. Y. will have two of its former licentiates— Bros. Kingsbury and Jenkins—working side by side upon the western wall of our Zion. We. also, welcome to our Presbytery Rev. G. W. .ilkckie of the Presbytery of Watertown, and . Rev. J. S. McConnell of the U. P. Presbytery of Chicago—the latter assenting to the constitu tional questions. Some attention was given to the beneficent causes of the Church. In accor dance with the recommendation of the Assembly, Presbyterial Committees on Church Erection and on Education were or.anized. The report of the Commissioners to the Assemblyßevs. Dr. B. W. Patterson and Arthur Swazey—Was listened to with marked attention. The Over ture on Re-union was not officially presented, (the Stated Clerk having overlooked it among the papers which had accumulated during an ab • sence) and the final action was deferred until the annual meeting.

The followin ,, is reported as the ac tion taken on Union : "The 13318 , 8 of Union sub mitted to the :Presbyteries by the last General Assembly, was brought up for discussion and final action. A motion to adopt it was lost—none voting for it, and three or four voting against. A motion to reconsider was lost. Resolutions were offered by Dr. D. M. Maclise, stating that although not willing to accept the proposed basis, yet that Presbytery was willihg to enter into the Union on the basis of the Holy Scriptures, the Confe4. fession of Faith, the Catechism; Larger and Shorter of the Westminster Assembly of Divines, the Book of Discipline and Form of Church Gov ernment." After discussion, a motion was made to lay the resolutions on the table, which was carried by a vote of 18 to 9—four ministers and five elders voting in the negative. Religious World Abroad. GREAT BRITAIN. The Old Greyfriars Church Case (Edinbargh), has been settled so far as the Town Council' is con cerned, by an adjournment till September •15th, by which time the presentation passes into the hands of the Presbytery. The members of the Town Council who do not belong to the Established church (a majority of the whole) have incurred no little odium by their attempt to force Dr. Gloag upon an unwilling congregation, and public opinion is so aroused that no other clergyman of the Establish ment will venture to take, at the hands of the Pres bytery, the place to which the people have nomin ated Mr. Wallace. Though much opposed to this gentleman, on account of his .Broad-Churchism, that body will have no alternative, but to accept him. On the other hand, it is 'urged against 'the drey-. friars' people, that their ritualistic tendencies are among the least. of their sins. Though among the very richest of the Establishment congregations, they have done but little for the general "Causes" of the Church, and next to nothing to benefit their immediate neighbors. They have turned the most iiistorc church of the land into a mere, lounging place for idlers in the vineyard, alienating the hearts of the common people by their novelties. Their li berality as to doctrines and Church methods has not been accompanied by any proportionate liberal ity as to things which they have moreright to make free with, viz.: their time and money. A. Mortara Case. with Variations.—A writ of Habeas Corpus was recently sued out in the Connor Q uee n's Bench, at Cardiff, Wales, by whiCh Rev. N. Thomas. Baptist minister, was required to bring into Court Miss Esther Lyons, daughter of Mr. B. Lyons, a wealthy Jew of that town. 'Miss Lyons, it seems, is a convert to Christianity, who placed herself under,the care of Me Thomas, and was by him sent 'to a hoarding-school in Cardiff., After some legal bickering, it was decided that being over sixteen years of age, she had a right, to leave her parents if she chose, and that 'Mr. Thomas could not be compelled to produce the girl. The Christian Judge; however, not only insulted Mr. Thomas by imputations on his veracity, but pointed out to the Jewish father how he might obtain control of -his child, by making her a ward in chancery. Irish Items.—The great Anglican "Church Con- Sress" is to be held in Dublin this year, beginning eptember 29.—The Weekly Review says: " In Ire land, we observe that the Presbyterians of Ulster have , become , thoroughly alive to the nece2sitv of having their interests -represented in ParliaMent, which has not been the case hitherto. They feel that they have been overborne by the daniinant Church.

" These old men of the Vatican regard themselves as placed above all events; they dispose of time ac cording to their own pleasure, and fix the meeting of the council at the end of 1869, without inquiring what will be the state of Europe, or their own situa tion, in a year and a-half? How many things may happen before that period shall arrive I " Pius IX, pretends to pursue the path opened by the Council of Trent in the sixteenth century; nevertheless he adopts a method entirely distinct from that of the Roman pontiffs of old. This Pope does not summon the ambassadors or delegates of the sovereigns to his council;• he demands for the [Romishj Church absolute independence. He himself; with his cardi nals and bishops, will decide all posible questions, without inquiring, even in the most indirect man ner, whether the heads of the civil authority are in agreement with himself. But in this conduct we necessarily' realise the separation of the Church from the State, which Is the greatest of the pro blems of modern times. Is this, then, really the• desire of Pius IX. and of his .clergy ? Will not the sittings of this council also produce a violent com motion in Italy? Will not they prove a stimulus to arouse all the passiouS of the people? And if : the. Italians, in a moment of crisis or indignation, should again take up arms, what will become of the Pontifical See? What will be the attitude of the French clergy in such an assembly? It is. ery pro bable that pretensions the most absolute will there obtain the majority. But, in that event, separation between the ecelesiastical spirit and the lay spirit will become yetmore complete. There Will be a Violent conflict between the civil authority and clerical despotism. Has the itti man . Pontiff seriously considered these possi ble results? Is he prepared to give the signal of a terrible revolution? Lastly, will our soldiers who compose the garrisdn of Rome be called upon to mount guard around this council, which shall declare that the independence of crowns .is 'a fatal doctrine? And whilst Austria is entering on a more liberal - peth,,will France be condemned, by the most singular fatality; to protect ati assembly which Shall fulminate anathemas against all the 'idea's and all the laws of the modern world? .We shall, in that case, be the sentinels of a cpi:no I which' will con dernn everything which has consatuted the strength and the greatness of our country! So far . the ii!..,tme. It is raid , however, that the Pope will invite not only . he elinperors-of France and Austria, but that Victor Emmanuel will be invit ed as ."King":without specifying his kingdom, while the Ex-King of Naples will be asked also, so that the King of Italy (as Victor claims to be) will only be invited in form. The doctrine of the ascension of the human body of the Virgin into heaven will most probably be forced through the council, as will that of the infallibility of the Pope on matters of faith.

The Queen, who, though a heathen, knew something of Christianity, and grant ed it full toleration, lost faithin her idols some time before her death ; and when conscious that she was about to die she called upon some Christian officers who were in attendance, to pray to the true God. Since her death the idol has been sent away, to the annoyance and loss of its keepers, and the royal household attends the ministry of the missionaries. The government works have been etopped on the Sabbath, and a foreign minister was refused an au dience on that day.
