3.;111iiD115 REFORMED CHURCHES. George W. Musgrave, D. D., has re ,1,1(.(1 the pastoral charge of the North Tenth street ,aj urc h.—The Norris Square, or Ninth church, (Rev. James Crowe, pastor,) was formally opened and ded -I,ated on Sal,bath, Oct. 4th. The cost of the build ,„4 i s $18,600, and of this sum $12,600 has been inid leaving a debt of $6OOO on the building. The ollections during the day footed up almost $3OOO, leaving a debt of only 0000 on this beautiful and church.—The Presbyterian church at illestnut Hill, (Rev. Roger Owen, pastor,) is to be odargetl. This was made necessary by the demand fir pews. An addition of twenty-four feet to the i.aigth of the present building is to be made, and the work has been commenced - . When finished, the , hurch, with the beautiful manse adjoining, will form ,me of the most attractive church -establishments in our suburbs. The 0. S. Boards.—The receipts for the month of Au g ust were: Board of Domestic Missions, $3.907.- 82: Board of Foreign Missions, $10,335 53; Board of Education, $658 17 ; total amounts, $1.4,900 52. —The Synod of Southern lowa has appointed the fourth Thursday of October as a day of prayer in reference to the embarrassed state of the Boards of Foreign and Domestic Missions. It is hoped other Synods may be moved to take similar action.—.N. TV. Presbyterian. Blackboards.—Rev. Alfred Taylor writing to the S. Times of "Grievous Blackboards," says : The best blackboard I ever saw or used, was no board at all. It was in a church. The church had been reconstructed, and it occurred to the pastor, (Rev. Mr. Wylie, New Castle, Pa.,) that the space in the rear of the desk [in the lecture-room] could be made more useful in this way than by ornament ing it with the fanciful ccAonade so in generally blotch ed perspective, behind our pulpits. So he mixed about twenty-five cents' worth of lamp black in the - finishing coat of plaster, - and - spread the black mixture over a space about ten feet wide and twelve feet high. This back part of the wall being neatly surrounded by an arched mouldina,looks better than some of the hideous colonnades referred e ' to, and fur nishes a surface which is more like real slate than almost any of the slate imitations. You cannot well upset this blackboard, nor does it wabble about, as some boards do, when you write on it. Infant Baptisms.— TAe National Baptist has been looking after the statistics and thinks that the re turns indicate some half-hearted want of consistency in the churches which profess to . practise Infant Bap tism. " The Reformed (Dutch) church - reports for the year 3,843, infants baptized in .373090 families— an average of about one for every ten families. The 48,000 Congregationalists of Connecticut report, for the past year, 835 liaptisuis of infants—less than two for each church of 100 members. The 24 churches in Rhode Island, with 3,835 members, an average of 159 to each church, baptized the past year but -thir ty-three infants, less for each church than one and a half." Princeton Seminary with a Wise courtesy repu-; diates the imputations cast upon Union Seminary by its volunteer champion, the correspondent 'of The: Presbyterian. Prof. Green writes kreply, to the Pres-. byterian, in which he says that the Middle. and Ju nior Classes are both larger than theY were.litst year, and as for the Senior Class, it was a small one at the outset. lie acknowledges that it has been still' further depleted, but only :by causes that are quite exceptional. The " craft of New 'School men"has had nothing to do with the attraction of five .of its members to Union Seminary. The Professor says: " Five members Of the present Senior Ohms, all -of them good and worthy men, have gone to Union Seminary. Of these, two came originally from that Seminary to Princeton with the avowed design of re-, maining but a single year. Another resin the New School connection, and yielded to the urgency of friends to spend one year of his course in an institu tion connected with their own denomination. The Fourth was a Methodist, who, during the past year united with the New School body ; and the last of the five was a student from Canada, who desired to enlarge his acquaintance with this country and its institutions, by passing a year in New York city." Ministerial,—At a late meeting of the Board of Trustees of Pennsylvania College, .at Gettysburg, Pa., the Rev. Edsal Ferrier was elected Vice-Prest dent of the College. Mr. Ferrier is a minister of the 0. S. church, a Member of the Presbytery of Hud son, and is now Professor of the English language and Literature in the College.—On the 13th of Sep tember, Mr. Robert Sloss, late of Princeton Semin ary, was ordained by the Presbytery of Indianapolis, and installed pastor of the Third church in Indiana polis.—Rev.

New York to Europe, and make the trip across Europe and Asia to Pekin, by the overland route The Rev. W. F. Brauns was installed pastor of the Seventh church of Cincinnati, Monday . evening, Sept. 15th.—Rev. D. T. Carnahan has been installed pastor of the church of Bellefield, Presbytery of Ohio.—Rev. John Mont gomery was installed pastor of the Presbyterian church of Princeton, Ind., on Tuesday evening,Sept. 22d.—The church at Scranton, Pa., has callel to its pastorate the Rev. S. 0. Logan, now Corresponding Secretary of the Freedmen's (0. S.) Committee.— The First church of Decatur, 111., have given a unan imous call to the Rev. H. Gill, of Greensburg. Rev. J. G.

At a late.meeting of thett S. Presbytery of Cincinnati, the Rev. J. A. P. M,Gaw was received as a member of Presbytery, upon a dismission from the U. P. Presbytery of Monmouth, Ills. Rev.

At the recent session of the CincinnetiWonferenee Rev. W. Stewart, ajminis ter of, the P. E.

Gambier, Qilj4:lo lies formally withdrawn from the ministry of the Episcopal Church. His letter to Bishop Mcllvainedeclares that his reasons for taking this step, are to, be found ,:in the tenets of the Church, which in terms give to the clergy the power of remission of,sins, ani . , attribute to the rite of baptism a say pg efflctOy.

At the communion of the Church in Thomaston, Mass., Sept. 6th, 53 were added to their number by profession, making 74 this year. The revival still continues. Methodist —The Catholic Telegraph of Cincin nati says : " The choir of a Methodist Church, on Seventh-street has been making desperate efforts to sing the music of one of Mozart's Masses in English words. It is like trying to imitate the grand organ on the Irish bag-pipes."—The Wesley ans of Great Britain, last year, repaired and.built 260 churches at an expense of £,289,822, or nearly $1,500,000: in gold. Seventy-eight of these new churches were built where formerly they had no church accommodations, thereby furnishing sittings for 22,139 persons. The Methodist Episcopalians• of this country receive the proposal of a "reunion" to the P. E. Church with as little favor as did their Wesleyan brethren in England the proposals Slat they should return to the ChUrch of England. The Methodist says that the two churches are so totally unlike in spirit, that any attempt to reunite them would result in disastrous failure. Yet a Com mittee of negotiation on this subject was appOifited by the General Conference at Chicago: Episcopalian.—Rev. Charles F. Robertson, rec tor of the Church of Malone, N. Y., was elected, on the 3rd instant, Bishop of the. Diocese of Missouri, in place of the late Bishop Hawkes, de ceased. The N. Y. Sun says that the Low Church Bishop's 'do no: number over one fourth of the whO . le' House i that,only the. new Bishop, of 'Virginia,. of all the recent additions to the episcopate, belongs to that party,' and that only Bishop Lee of Delaware would be willing to go out with a Secession to es tablish. a more : Protestant. Episcopal Chureh. Yet the presidency of the House has passed from the High to the Low Church party by the death of Bishop Hopkins, for Bishop Smith of Kentucky as the senior Bishop succeeds to that hanor.--;Rev. H. D. Nobles, rector of the Episcopal Church in Bridgewater, - Mass., recently committed suicide. Temporary insanity was the probable cause.—Rev. Hiram W. P. Bishop, D. D:, rector elect of St. JOhrfe, Cinn., formerly rector of St. John's Church in. Chicago, died in Paris, August 31, from . a sun stroke. Baptist: - The Christian Instructor says : "The First Baptist church in Philadelphia„ have taken steps, we learn, to dispense with a choir, and return to simple general congregational singing in its wor ship of God. Some others of the largest and most influential churches in Philadelphia are, we under stand, meditating the same thing. Nor is this sur prising,if all we hear is true. Iu one church, we are informed, over $2OOO ire paid a year toleep lip the choir, including, of course, the organist. , ,others, persons Who are found on opera, and sometimes oth. er sts.ges, during the week, are engaged'in the choir on. the Sabbath." . ' 1 Romanist.—The N. 'Y. "Tablet says , : " Taken as a body, the Catholic population of this coUntrfare by far the least.vicipusrand postjemperate or any portion of the American people, equally large." Then they are a very , much slandered •peaple; 'and . have good reason to .complain of the police reports. --Baron Beuses answer in behalfof Austria to the Papal Allocution is very frank and'someWhat con ciliatory. He had warned the Holy See in a previ ous despatch to word the; rebuke mildly, but finds that the Allocution denounces the nevirlatvs in un expectedly severe ternie ; that 'it transcends the sphere of-the - Okruroh- Aleeeeneees.

Charles Egan, a Catholic clergyman at /ligur'3ta„ Me., has been indicted by the Grand Jury oft that~ county for slander. There were traced to.,him anonymous communications to the War Department implicating 'Colonel Buel and" Major Gilbretb, - 4•411" United States Arsenal, and Dr. Brickette, the:Sur geon of the post, in transactions of a fraudulent character. The charges were investigated .by. the proper authorities and dismissed by them as witV out foundation, and the matter was then brought by the ,aggrieved parties before the Grand Jury.— correspondent of the, N. Y. Tribune writes : gicura'services are-nat .allowed„in, Rome,, in private houses, and have several times within the last few' years been broker up, by the police. The Scotch clergyman was holding service in , Ills own private lodgings; When he was threatened,Through the Brit ish Consul, with 'the penalties of the - Inquisition' for so doing. 'Via this very prohibition that is our great cause of complaint against the Roman Gov ernment." The Waldensian Work in Venice.—Secretary Kendall writes: "During the last eighteen months there has been in this city what in .our country we would call a great revival of religion. Three or fotir lomdred 'people gather together to hear the Tiretiehing 'Or the Word; and the nuniber could easily be doubled if another preacher and another place of meeting could be secured. Nearly two hundred persons, after a carefukexamination, have been admitted to the Church: When lease of the rooms they now occupy expires, the priests will doubtless take good care that these disciples shall not be able to find any others." Mr. Colton, our Consul'at Venice, writes : " It is now less,than a year and a half since an organized work Was begun. In that time hundreds have lis tened to Gospel truth, and seem still to thifst after more. Only since December has thechurch eXisted. It contains nearly 20(t faithful Cli:rititians. We have 300 more names on tire - list as Catechumens, who are being Taithrully - initructed in the Bible, and from whose number recruits will be made to the Church when they become intelligent Christians:' Ouvechoot dates from September . fast: •hav4 . about 80 intelligent and, earnest pupils.

Then it was dark, and the priests rejoiced and thought it was all over. But, by the mercy of God, the cloud passed away, and the work was stronger than ever."
