resolution was adopted, viz.: That each of our Churches be required to take a collection every year for each of the causes commended by the General Assembly, and report the result at the annual spring meetings of Presbytery. An application tor aid from the Ministerial Relief Fund, caused a spirited discussion of the necessity of such a fun:l. Some took the ground that it is the minister's duty to se cure a competence for himself when crippled by old age, or for his family when taken from them, by in vesting in these rich prairie lands, or in something else, that will bring a profitable return. Others held that the minister should seek to live only of his labor, and trust the support of his old age, or of his fatif ily, to the providence of God. However, the Min isterial Relief Fund has the hearty co-operation of the Presbytery. Two persons within our bounds receive aid from it. One of them is a minister, en feebled by age and disease ; the other, the widow of a minister. The Basis of Reunion was discussed with much feeling, and approved with but one opposing vote. Rev. jereraiah Woodruff died a few months since, and we greatly miss him. He came to us from the Presbytery of Rochester, two years ago, and in the church of Rossviße which he organized, as well as in other results, he has left a monument to hie faith ful and efficient, but too brief, Western' toil. Rev. Charles S. Marv in has been dismissed to the Congre gational body ; and Rev. Charles B. French to the Presbytery, 1:11' Keokuk. Synods. The Synod' of Albany closed its Annual Meet ing in Keeseville, October 16th. The members in attendance were not large, but the meeting was a good one. Keeseville is—as some of your readers well know—Aie point where clericals and other hun ters and fishermen take their line of march for the Saranac Lakes and woods. We find our gbod bro ther, the pastor of Keeseville, Rev. H. K Butler, recovering from protracted illness, caused by severe labor, in connection with the very warm weather of the past summer. He was able to be in one or two of our meetings for a short' time. His condition elicited our sympathy, and himself and his people were very affectionately remembered in our devo tional services. The opening sermon was by Rev. Dr. Bulkley of Plattsburgh. Rev. Dr. M. R. Vincent, was chosen Moderator, Rev. A. C. Bishop, tempo rary, and Rev. I. M. Crawford, Assistant Cleck. The reports of Presbyteries indicated general prosperity and growth in various directions and increase in numbers too; but the instances were lamentably few, of the special presence and converting power of the Holy Spirit. Glen's Falls, Warren Co., under the labors of Bro. Fennel, Was, I think, the most marked case of a revival blessing. The Sabbath- school Mission of the First church, Troy, has thus early natured in the organization of a church call ed Oakwood Avenue Church, consisting now of nearly 100 members, under the labors of Rev. G. Van Deurs, formerly of your city. His ministry is every way most promising. The cause of Foreign Mis sions was represented by Rev. 0. W. Winchester, formerirmissionary to the Armenians, by Rev. W. S. Drysdale and Rev. M. Warner who had just re turned—all thrilled—kom the great meeting of the Board at Norwich. We had brother Stowe, in his always acceptable manner, on Home Missions. We were glad to meet Dr. Atterbury, the suc cessor of the good brother Mills, and to hear him plead so earnestly, the cause of the Chris tian ministry. Church Erection, Publication and Ministerial Belief— were each assigned a place and an advocate from the members of Synoil. We had two sermons during our sessions—one by Rev. I. McVey of Columbia Presbytery, and one by Rev. G. A. Howard of Catskill—before the Lord's Supper. Rev. Dr. Vincent, read, by request, a very interesting , essay on the place of Creeds in our Church system, which was followed with an animated discus sion. This last evening, was, as is fitting, ,the crowning of the occasion. Beside the narrative by, Rev. B. R..Spragnef we bad a, brief note from the . ' sick pastor, short practical addresses, by clerical and lay members, with prayers and singing, all bearing our thought and hearts along the line of higher hopes and purposes, until in 'closing, the brethren renewed by standing 'vote, the resolution of former yearsf, to remember each other in` prayer —in the Sabbath morning devotions, that, the great Shepherd will give them His presence and tarot in the duties of the day. The next meeting of this Synod, is to be held in the Fourth church Albany . , One year since, a paper in favor of' re union, was adopted by Synod with almost entire unanimity. In • that paper, a very earnest protest was entered against any modification of the plan, Its then before Synod: At this meeting, the brother who preeented the cause of publication, expreesed a decidgd opin ion against re-union. Another esteemed brother, who sustained the paper of last year, said, in social conference, that the plan of last year 'had been so modified, that the action then taken, could not be regarded as now binding the Synod.: Another said, I favored union cordially before, and must be as de cidedly against it now. Some others joining in the converse,, agreed in these conclusions, while still others said, the end is coming and you must be pr'e pared to accept the conclusion. May the light from above, encircle us all. ... MELAs. The Synod of Ohio met at Columbus, Oct. 19th. There was a spirited discussion On Reunion, a reso lotion being offered that "a reunion be accepted.On the siniple standards of the Church," and not on the basis as found in "the thirteen'articles." Rev. Mr. Shedd thought there should be a limit in their chas ing around after the Old School brethren. He was willing to treat them courteously, affectionately, and with all Christian fellowsliip,And was in favor of union with all his heart, and would do every thing gentlemanly and proper to accomplish it, but to keep chasing backward and forward. just to suit Their notions—he did not believe in it. When the General Assembly meets, if it sees fit to make a change, let it do so, but he thought they had, done their duty. Rev. Mr. Tenney : thought they must make great allowance for their brethien of the Old School. Rev. J. F. Kendall believed, in view of all the concessions made by,the New. School, that their dignity required that they should stop. As brother Shedd had said, he was , done chasing them around. They had done all that mortal man-could be asked to do. He was willing to meet them on the present terms, but was not willing to go a step further. Rev. 8, P. llildreth and Rev. Mr. Riggs spoke briefly on the resolution, when, on motion, it was laid on the table. The Syhod of Peoria met, October 20th, at Sandwich,.lll. The opening sermon was preached by the Rev. George Duffield. Rev. Samuel Wyckoff was chosen Moderator, Rev. E. H. Avery Temporary Clerk, and Rev. O. A. Kingsbury, Assistant Clerk. Rev. L. 11. Reid was elected,Stated Clerk. Rev. Robert Patterson, D.D., delegate from the Synod of Chicago; O. S.; delivered a strong, fervent, and fraternal address; to which the Moderator made an appropriate reply. Rev. Dr. Ellenwood and Rev. G. P. Folsom, lately appointed District Secretary for the North West, addressed the Synod relative to the work of church erection. • Rev. Dr. Gulliver, President of Knox College, Addressed the Synod by invitation, and very acceptably, with ref erence to that Institution: Prof. Bailey also was beard with reference to Blaokburn University. it is designed to introduce the partial , coiirse of study (somewhat after the pattern at Andover,) into this latter Institution. Prayer meetings were held. eack ‘ rnoraillg..l:n which a tender and fervent soirit vas, inarlifeSt. With reference to the various.departments of our church' work, it was felt very strongly that' the churches' Must be brought to contribute, Ali 'and regularly, to the causes which. our'Oeueral A.ssem bl.y sustains. Synod recommended to the Prealty THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1868. teries to authorizes their Stated Clerks to fill va cancies in standing committees on the ditiere , t causes, until the next regular meeting of Presby tery,—notifying such persons of their appointment and making proper record of the same. It was also "Resolved, That it shall be an established order of this Synod, hereafter, to call upon all its menl hers for a full and specific report of what has been done, in the several churches which they represent, during the precedirg year, for the several causes of benevolence that have been recommended by our General Assembly. Also, that we earnestly recom mend to our several Presbyteries that they adopt the same measure at each annual meeting." _ . Synod also recommended that each pastor use his influence to introduce into every family of his congregation one of our leading weeklies,together with the Presbyterian Monthly or .issionary Herald. Also, that Sabbath-school libraries be se lected as far as practicable from the publications of our own Committee. The District Secretary of Home Missions and the Stated Clerks of our several Presbyteries were ap pointed a Standing Committee to form a medium of communication between vacant churches and unoc cupied ministers, the District Secretary to be Chair man of this Committee. The report of the Standing Committee on Forei,gn Missions urges upon pastors and sessions to make the monthly concert more effective and to observe the same universally. Reference was made to six of our number who have died, and the following special minute was or dered to be published: "Whereas, since our last annual meeting God, in His wisdom, has by death taken from us our late Moderator, Rev. E. A. Pierce, and Assistant, Tem, porary Clerk, Rev. J. L. Morton, brethren beloved, and faithful laborers in the vineyard of the Lord, therefore • Resolved, 1. That while with Christian affection we cherish their 'memories and mourn their loss to that branch of the Church•militant to which webe- long, and joy in the well assured hope that they have joined the Church triumphant, we feel sol emnly admonished to close up the ranks and gird ourselves anew for the conflict that is before us, to work earnestly, faithfully, and diligehtly while the day lasts. ;r. 2... That we do, as a Synod, tender to their af flicted families our sincere sympathies, with, the assurance, that they have our earnest prayers that. God would sanctify this dispensation of His provi dence, and grant them all needed grace to sustain them under their sore trials. ' ' 3. That these resolutions be entered upoh our records, and published in our weekly religious ournals." , Visiting Committees were appointed as follows: To Knox College: Rev. C. A. Williams, Principal. Rev: E. H. Curtis, Alternate. To Illackbuin Uni vensity: Rev. John Maclean, Principal. Rev. M. P. Ormsby, Alternate. Interest was expressed in the Educational insti tutions at Lake Forest, and the nomination of Trustees confirmed. The people of that place are coming forward nobly, the Rev. Mr. Taylor en gaging also in the work, and it is expected that we shall soon have some very hoPeful results to report for the cause of education there. FA:eeport was chosen as the place -cif the next meeting. It was "Resolved, That it be the stated rule of this Synod to meet annually on the third Thursday of October, at 7,1 o'clock P.

SCRIBNER & CO.; 654 Bkciadwiisf,"Ne* 800 OF TITS UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD Are now finished and in operation. Although this road is built with great rapidity, the work is thoroughly done, and is pro nounced by the United States Commissioners to ho first-class every respect, before It is accepted, and before any bonds can ia•ned upon it. Rapidity and excellence of construction have been secured by complete division of labor, and by distributing the twenty thou sand men employed along the line for long distances at once. I is now probable that the Whole Line to the PACIFIC will be Completed in 1869. The Company have ample moans of 'which tile Government grants the right of way, and all necessary timber and other mate rials found along the line of its operations ; also 12,800 acres of land to the mile, taken in alternate sections on each side of its road; also United States Thirty-year Bonds, amounting to from $lO,OOO to $lB,OOO per mile, according to the dfficulties to be sur mounted on the various sections to be built, for which it takes a second mortgage as security, and it is expected that not only the interest, but the principal amount may be paid in service rendered by the Company in transporting troops, mails, &c. THE EARNINGS OF TILE UNION PACIFIC. RAILROAD, from Its Way or Local Business only, during the year ending June 30th, 1868, amounted to over Four Million Dollars, which, after paying alt expenses was much more than sufficient to pay the interest upon its Bonds. These earnings are no indication .f the vast through traffic that must follow the opening of the line to the Pacific, but they certainly prove that First Mortgage Bonds upon such a property, costing nearly three times their amount, Are Entirely Secure. The Union Pacific Bonds run thirty years, are for $l,OOO curb, 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 ou their cost. A very important consideration in determining the value of t hese bonds is the length of 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 durlatg 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 en 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 mand alone may produce this result and as the issue of a private corporation, they are beyond the reach or political action. . . The Company believe that these Bonds at the present rate, are the cheapest security in the market, and the right to advance the price4t any time is reserved.
