bodies in this country and in Europe, as to the pro- priety of such timely action for the furtherance of free Biblical Protestant Christianity." The Synod of New Jersey, (0, S.) meeting in the Third church of Newark, the opportunity was taken for manifest ing the fraternal sentiments of the two bodies, in various ways. A Union Prayer meeting was held on Tuesday evening, and on Wednesday the two bodies united in celebrating the sacrament of the Supper. The body of the house was nearly filled by the members of these two large Synods. An appeal signed by four persons claiming to be elders of the Pleasant Valley church, from a decision of the North River Presbytery setting them aside as Elders, occupied the attention of Synod. At first the Appeal of the Elders was sustained; afterwards upon the presentation of a Preamble and Resolu. tions by Dr. Adams, the action was reversed, the Appeal not sustained, and the congregation censur ed, [This strikes us as a quite remarkable course of judicial procedure, and one in regard to which it is doubtful whether the General Assembly would sustain the Synod. A Court cannot, sit as a "Court of Errors," reviewing [la own degisions.] The Sy nod of N. J. (O. 5.)., adopted a paper on reunion, the minority presenting a dissent and protest. Our own Synod (N. Y. and N. J.), adopted the same action, as follows That in the judgment efthis Sy nod such an agreement in doctrine and such a mu tual degree of confidence and love do now exist be-• tween the two branches of the Presbyterian Church, usually called Old and New. Schools, as to render it highly proper and conducive to the interests of the Redeemer's Kingdom that the union of the two bodies be consu7►mated without unnecessary delay on the basis of our common standards as `overtured by the two assemblies to their respective presbyte ries and the prevalence of mutual confidence and love." Presbyteries. Third Presbytery of Philadelphia.—The stated meeting was held in the Presbyterian House, on Tuesday morning of last week, and at noon ad journed, to meet during intervals of the sessions of the Synod in Readin4. The leading items of busi ness were the 'reception of papers and hearing of statements relating to the affairs of the Tabor Church, and the appointment of an adjourned meeting on the 9th of November, at 3 o'clock, P. M., for further information and action. The Com mission on the Pottsville Church reported the suc cess of efforts to bring the Church up from certain difficulties growing out of the consolidation of ale old First and Second Churches into the present or ganization. The union, with- the loss of a few in dividual dissentients, has gone into both practical and legal effect, and there now exists on the ground a strong, well cemented and hopeful Church. Rev. T. W. Schenck, favorably known in this city as late Pastor of the Reformed Church, Tenth and Filbert streets, was received to Presbytery on certi ficate, and declared his acceptance of a call to the Pottsville Pastorate. Arrangements were made for his installation on: the , evening of the 27th inst., Messrs. Hotchkin,Wiswell, Stryker and Moore . being the installing Committee. Presbytery added to these arrangements a resolution of special sym pathy and congratulation for the Church. The overture for Presbyterian reunion was an swered in the affirmative, with only three dissent ing votes. Rev. Prentiss de Veuve was dismissed to the Presbytery of Newark, and Rev. J. Ford Saton to the Fourth Presbytery of Philadelphia. Botfi go to enter upon pastoral settlements—the former .in the Park Church, Newark, N J., and the latter in the Frankttird suburb of this city. Other items of business were laid over to the ad journed meeting. B. B. H. The Presbytery of Pittsburg held itaregular Fall meeting at the Church of Pleasant Unity, which, though now pastorless and disconsolate, is not a bad place to meet in. Our meeting began on Friday, Oct. 16th, and lasted over Sabbath ; and, in addition to the regu lar business of Presbytery, I might say that we, had a sort of camp meeting, continuing for the space of three days and three nights. The religious exercises were exceedingly plea sant, and, we hope, profitable ; and the hearty hos pitality of the people added' not a little to the int presston left upon us all. The subject of Re-union was discussed quite earnestly, and at some length; and while, perhaps, all were in favor of union, on fair and honorable terms, there were some to whom the attitude of the other branch, on this subject, since the St. Louis meeting, as well as before, did not seem, quite satis factory. 'l'he folloWing minute was adopted: "Resolved, That this Presbytery approvethe basis of reunion overtured by the General Assem bly ; and also, in case the basis overtured be not approved by a sufficient number of the Presbyte-, r es, that we are prepared for a union of the Churches on the ba.sis of our common standards." The subject of' missions among the Freedmen was discussed on Satarday evening, in the presence of a large congregation ; and Rev. J. S. Travelli,' who had been appointed by Synod a committee• to confer with the Home Mission Committee of our. Church, reported having seen that committee, and that the prospects of carrying on this work. with more efficiency are good. Rev. Messrs. Wylie and Noble, and Elder Ed wards, were appointed a committee to prepare and distribute a circular to the trustees of churches, making inquiries as to their financial condition, and as to the plans.they ail - rpt to secute benevolent contributions. The following Minute was adopted: "Resolved, That this Presbytery recommend each congregation to take earnet4t measures to see that some one at least of our religious papers be taken' In every family within its bounds, and that we specially commend to the attention of our people the American Presbyterian." Adjourned, to. meet at Minersville, on the third Friday of April next. Yours, etc., P. S,DATie.s. S. C. The Presbytery of Champlain, at its annual meeting, authorized itsComrnitteeon Home Missions to make all necessary arrangements for the constant maintenance of the ministry in its Own bounds. In pursuit of this, the Committee have had a Pres.' byterial missionary and two students from the Union Theological Seminary at work during the summer. This has resulted in greatly encouraging scattered and isolated members of our Church, re animating languishing and nearly extinct churches, and discoVering new field& which might be hope fully cultivated, if the men and means were at command. They have also acted as a Board of Ministerial Supply, going to the aid of vacant churches immediately . , upon the occurrence of a vacancy, and introducing ministers to them. The result of this has tieeti die shortening of intervals between pastorate's, 'and the supplying of every church in this Presbytery with ministers, but one, and that ie shortly to be supplied. The Presbytery of Kenlas met .at- Baldwin City. Three i'aten3 (Revs. J. L. Jones, from the Presbytery of Wabash, D. Moore,: from the .Presbytery of Dayton, .and James Gordori t from the Presbytery of Des- Moines),. and seven licentiates were received to membership and under care re spectively. The pastoral ,relatiok existing between hey. G. F. Chapin and thenburch in Lawrence was dissolved.. The Basis of. Reunion, overtured by, the Assembly was'approved. A. call for the.services' in the Gospel. ot Mr. A. Stout, wipe .presented, and he will be ordained ,and installed in November... The Stated Clerk writes to The Evangelist : I"The change made in the Church Erection Plan baf3 Oven knew impetus to, church building in the great Valley. Several new 'churches are now going upKanSas —one at Wathena, one at Ottawa, one at De 'Soto-4 THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1868. and steps have been taken to build at several other points." Presbytery of Cincinnati met October 20th, in the Sixth church, Cincinnati. Rev. J: W. Ilfareussohn was granted a letter of dismission, to unite with the Niagara Presby tery. The reports of Committees on Home Mis sions, Ministerial Relief, Education and Publica tion were made, and special attention to them urged upon all our churches. The Pilgrim Mission was en trusted to the special care of the pastor and session of the Lane Seminary church. The Western Tract and Book Society and the Family Treasure were cor dially commended. On Reunion. Resolved, that the Overture of the General Assembly on the subject of Reunion be an swered affirmatively, but if the General Assembly so prefer, they have our consent to the union on the basis of the Standards pure and simple. Adopted unanimously. A Corn mittee was appointed on Manses, on a Pastoral Letter and Ministers' Libraries, also a Committee on Church Erection. J. CHESTER, S. C. Cincinnati, 'O., October 23,1868. Presbytery of Ottawa..—The action on Re union Was as follows : Resolved, That the Presby tery of Ottawa do hereby authorize. the: next Gen eral Assembly, appointed to sit in New Yorlt,An May, 1869, so far as the Presbytery is concerned, to simplify and consummate the Re-union of the two branches of - the Presbyterian Chureh without ,fur ther reference, provided three-fourths.of the Presby teries approve the Overture sent down to the PreS byteries on this subject.' Appended to this resolution is an: expression of a preference that the re-union be consummated upon the standards, pure and simple. The action was, not, harmonious—three voted in favor, two against— and two voted neither for nor against the union Oil the present basis. All would cheerfully hold up both hands for the re-union on the basis of our Standards. The subject wil doubticss"come before us again at 'our spring session. NAHUM GOULD. A VOICE FROM INDIA. Preamble and Resolutins adopted at a meeting ofth,e Saharavpor Ref Preskytery, held at Saha- runpur, on the 12th, day of Augukt, 1868 'WHEAEas, The General Synod of the Re formed Presbyterian Church, at its recent meet ing in Pittsburgh in the month of May last, ,did suspend Mr. Geo. H. Stuart from Eldership. and Membership of the Church, because it was al leged that he had " in the worship of God, used imitations and uninspired compoSitions, called Hymns, and communed with others and in other churches, in sealing ordinances, and declared that he will continue to do so," and WHEREAS, The action of Synod, in this case, was taken by resolution, without notice of trial, or any of the forms prescribe& tOr such cases, , and in the absence of the accused; and is, therefore ; irregular and unconstitutional, and WHEREAS, The resolution was carried by only a majority vote of that meeting, which majority does• not, in our opinion, represent the views of the Reformed Presbyterian Church ; as We know, that, including the members of this Presbytery, not less than two,thirdsof the ministry of the Church agree in principle with Mr. Stuart, and . WHEREAS, This action constitutes, in our judgment, a gross case of exceptional discipline, the accused having been singled out as a victim; though it was well known that many other- mem- bers were guilty of the very- offences charged against him, yet no , notice whatever was taken of them, and 4 ' WHEREAS, The members of this Presbytery have for more than thirty years done the very things which are alleged against Mr. Stuart, and. have all this time believed them to be in entire consistence with a liberal interpretation •of the Principles and Practice of the Reformed Presby terian Church, and WHEREAS, The action of Synod in. suspending Mr. Stuart for these alleged offences, renders it imperatively necessary that every member of the Church should declare his views on these ques tions, it is hereby unanimously. I. Resolved, That as a Presbytery we entirely disapprove of, and protest against the action of the Synod in this case. 11. That we feel compelled to repudiate said action, as unjust in principle, unconstitutional and unpresbyterian in form, unkind and tyrannical in the circumstances and calculated to do grievous injury to the cause of Christ. 111. That while we regard the Book of Psalms as well adapted to the state of the rChurch, and suitable to be used in the worship of God, in all ages, we think that there is nothing in the Word 1 of God or in the History of the Church to prove that the psaltriody of the Church should be limit ed to these, but that poetical compositions of a sacred character founded upon and agreeable to the Word of God, may also be used. IV. That we believe' occasional communion with the people of God of other Evangelical de nominations is warranted by the sth Sectioa of the " Terms of Communion 'of the Reformed Presbyterian Church," which is as follows, "A recognition of all as brethren in every land who maintain a Scriptural testimony, in behalf of the attainments and cause of the Reformation, ainst all that is contrary. to sound doctrine aid the power of godliness.' V. That as a Presbytery we shall continue to recognize Mr. Geo. H. Stuart, as a brother be loved in the Lord, in full membership in the Church, and deserving of the highest esteem of every member of the Church of Christ through out the world. VI. That we cannot recognize the majority of the. Pittsburgh Synod as the legitimate represent atives of Reformed Presbyterian principles, and we could never consent to represent, among the heathen, a church holding the doctrines they have affirmed, in the decision under review. VII. That we consider our relations to the General Synod as suspended until its action in reference to Mr. Stuart is reversed. VIII. That one copy of the above Preamble and Resolutions be sent to the Moderator of the General Synod of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, and another to Mr. Geo. H. Stuart Signed, CALrown,L, Mod. of. Pres. W. CALDERWOOD, Clerk of Pres DAVID HERRON, JOHN S. WOODSIDE, P. W. J. WYLIE GILBERT MalanEn, KANWAE SAIN, Ruling Elders-Joni N. McLEon, Licentiate • JAMES FERGUSON, JOSEPH R. Kzau.

Although this road is built ith great rapidity, the work is thoroughly done, and is pro ounced by the Muted States Commissioners to be first-class ,ery respect, before It is accepted, and before any bonds can sued upon It. Rapidity and excellence of construction have been secured by Implete division of labor, and by distributing the twenty thou and men employed along the line for long distances at once. I now probable that the note Line to the PACIFIC will be Completed in 1869. The Company have ample means of which the Government rants the right of way, and all necessary timber and other mate ,ale found along the line of its operations; also 12,800 acres of hind to the mile, taken in alternate sections on each side of its 'oar]; also United States Thirty-year Bonds, amounting to from 'l4OOO to /48,000 per mile, according to the dfficulties to be ear !wonted Oh the varionasections to be built, for which it takes a econd mortgage as Security, and it is expected that not only the uterest, but the principal amount may be paid in service rendered the Company in transporting troops, mails, kc. THE EARNINGS OF THE UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD, from Oa Way or Local Business only, during the year ending June 30th, 'l2BB, amounted to over jatt3o-ly Four Million Dollars, which, after paying all expenses was much more than sufficient to pay the interest upon its Bonds: These earnings are no indication of the vast through traffic that must follow the opening of the line to the Pacific, but they certainly prove that First Mortgage Bonds upbn such a property, coating nearly three times their amount, The Union Pacific Bonds run thirty year; are tbr $l,OOO each, and have coupons attached. They bear annual interest, payable on the first days of January and July at the Company's office in the City of New York, at the rate of six per cent. in gold. The principal is payable in gold at maturity. The price is 102, and at the present rate of gold, they pay a liberal income OIL their cost. A very important consideration in determining the value of these bonds it the lenythief time they have to run. It is well• known that a long bond always commands a much higher price than a short one. It is safe to assume that during the next thirty runt 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 export de mend alone may produce this rmult 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 the cheapest security in the market, and kboxight to advance the price at any time is reserved.
