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. W. A: P. Martin,"D. D.. a minister of
the 0. S. Board of Foreign Missions, who is a Pro
fessor of Political Economy and International Law
in the Imperial College at Pekin, China, is on a visit
to this country, but will soon sail from. 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. McKee, Superintendent of the U. P.
Freedmen's "Mission at NaShville, Tennessee, died on
Sabbath, the 27th of September, at Hat7shayille, 0.
Crossing the Lines, =Rev. Philip 'Schiff, D. D.
has given a conditional acceptance o I the professor
ship of Church History in the Hartford Theologi
cal Institute. The Christian Instructor says: "The
Rev. 0. G. Mitchell,' formerly stt}ted , Oupply in the
U. P. congregation of-Pittsburg:ltid..‘ -- has gone to
the 0. S. Presbyterians, and is preaching in their
church at Delphi, Ind." 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. Arthur Little, pastor of the Presbyterian
Church in Bedford, N. H. , has been in vited to the pas-,
toratis of the Congregational Church at Fond du Lac,
Wis. Salary $lBOO. At the recent session of the
CincinnetiWonferenee Rev. W. Stewart, ajminis
ter of, the P. E. Church, after the usual examina
tion before 'the, Octhference, , was admitted to the
ministry of the Me Phurch, Rev. J. W. Cracraft
of. 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. These,tenets,
Mit. Cracraft believes, are becouung f ithrough the

come self-supporting—three houses of worship
have been completed, and steps have been taken
toward the erection of six others. The new Congrega
tional Church at Amherst, Mass., was dedicated on
Wednesday, Sept. 23d. 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."

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. A-eetri
for doing what France is allowed to do without (lia r .
approbation.; that it insults national feeling and has.
aroused a bitterness olhostility to the Church hith
erto unexampled; that its 'concluding appeal to thw
bishops of Hungany , ,is equally,. ungenerous and un
wise.—LThe 'bull SurnMoning 'the new oecumenical
council ignores all precedents - in that the princes of
Catholic nations.are not invited. Archbishop Man
ning in a recent speech interpreted this as a Papal
declaration in favor of the severance of Church and
State, and rejoiced in the - decision. Later intelli
gence shows that the P,ope,after tuuch discussion,.
decides to.inviteNapoleon lli. and that the" EM
peror of. Austria will also be invited if the opposi
tion of the Jesuits and ultramontanes, who.regard
him As 'excommunicated,,does not prevent.4ftev.
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. The, Bible
is our most common text-book. Music is taught in
the Church and School, and if
,you 0)114 hear the
musical Italians singing those familiar hymns, you
would think you never heard such congregational
music before. We have r :at present, two places of
worship, in each •ot'whiclr, two _or three times -"a.
.week, there are religious exercises, -be.aideS other
meetings connected with the-Bibleclass, etc. There
are generally'from 200 to 400 tersouli 'each'place

teachers, and soon I wilkhave ,a- A highrclase teacher

never assume his place again—nearly losing his
eyesight at last—his wife sick unto death—both his
children buried in one week. 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."
Mr. Colton, relying on the generous support of
British and American Christians, has purchased a
suitable building for $15,000.
