City.--rlie First It. P. church observed their
communion Sabbath, and received to membership
forty-two persons, nearly half of them on profes
sion of their faith in Christ. About four hundred
persons sat down at the long white tables, in the
old Covenanter style, and in the breaking of bread
owned and honored their Master. This 'indicates

The Reformed [Duteh] Board of Foreign Mis
sions.—The statement of the Finance Committee
of the Board shows that the treasury is indebted to
the amount of $35,000; that on the Ist day of No
vember drafts from the missions amounting to $7,-
000 will be due, on the 15th $4200, on the 30th
$3500, the total amount necessary to remove the
debt and meet the expenses of the remainder of the
year 1808 being about $5u,000. The Committee say:
' Every dollar of our Security Fund is now pledged
at the bank, and we have no means' left to raise
money, so that milese this amount is now obtained,
and means provided lot , the future, we Must go - to
protest, and the first default will ruin us for all time
to come; indeed, we would not be able to ,get
enough money to bring our missionaries home
again."
Ketituckyr..—The Western Presbyterian, respecting
the late meeting of the Synod of Kentucky, says:,
"The tree conversation on the state of religion ,in
the bounds of Synod revealed, with many causes of
discouragenient anti many occasions, of sorrow, not
a few grounds of encouragement. The diviSions and
strifa of the past have created • alienations which
are not healed, and probably Will not be for years.
The: state of things. in many of our Congregations
is better than it was - a:year ago.
,The.people ofGoil
in many/places are brought nearer toeetlier ; and a
spirit of / earnest longing is manifested among their'
for theketurn of God's Spirit in his qUickening, and
reforming power." The Synod refused,' after allkig
debate, to pass any resolutions in regard to reunion
with our branch. The debate develaped,a,,corpsider
able union feeling in the Synod. ,
The Testimony and Declaration Synod of
Kenthuky, at their late meeting, declined to join the
Southern Tresbyterian Aseembty. The question was
disposed of by referring the decision to the Presby
teries,; leaving them to determine for themselves
whether they would send commissioners to the As
sembly which meets at Mobile in May next. '
The•Scotoh-lrishiriving place to-the.eiermans;

Christian Instructor writes from Mercersburg: "Pres
byterianism has for . several y_eare been on *decline
in this region of country : No new Presbyterian
congregation of any name is. organized, 'while many
have died away, and nearly all theliving .ones seem
to be smitten, with an ineutable distemper. The time

score of years ago two large Old .School P resbyterian

in order to spiritually and eternally benefit man and

THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1868.
The U. P. Church proceeds in these matters with
more system, but, their success does not warrant the
belief that this is their main want, as the causes of
that Church are deeply in debt. The following is the

Boston Presbyterianism.—The Rev, J. B. Dunn
was installed pastor of the Presbyterian Society
which worships in the church on the corner of Beach
streetand'Earrison avenue, September .30th. The
sermon was,preached by the Re.v..Dr. Hall, of New
York; ,!and. .emarks were .made by Rev.:,Dr.. Kirk
and others. On the next evening a social reception
and levee waSibeld, at which there was a full attend
ance. The Society-is ina flourishing condition ; • and
'embraces many men of eminent piety, ability and
substance.:., Hitherto Boston has.-proved an Unfruit
ful field for Presbyterianism, as the good people of
this city prefer thee dectrines iritiiiilder and rale di-
Jilted doses than old-fgtshioned Presbyterians - indSted
on administering. : .-Withoutcomprornising the truth,
we believe our excellent brOthers have so softened
their discipline and. molted - their standards as to
make the church more - Palatable and acceptable .to
modern Bostonians ‘— Zion' s Herald.—A Presbyte
. rian churdh edifice, is to be'ea.cted on Berkeley, street
on thelot of land between Lawrence and Chandler
streetp„by . the society. of the U. ,P. ; Church, of which
Rev. Alexander Blalkie,Al-D.; is pastor. Workmen
have-begun to drive the piles, 'anal; the • foundations
will be completed this fall; It - is` anticipated that the
ahnrch will - log ready for occupancy in thesunimer of
next year. The church will he of brick - - About ten
th*cniSand dollars are yet needed to comprete the snli
scriptions.—ln Boston, there have-been .organized;
since 1846; .six Presbyterian churches.. allAnow in
healthy existence. Three of these are United -Pres=
byterian; two Old Scliciol Presbyterian And one Re
formed Presbyterian.
The 0. B:l3oards.—ln response to the ball of the'
Board of .Foreign Missions the children of the Church
• 0
last year, contributed, by extra effort, the round sum
Of fOrty-five thousand dollars. The Presbyterian re
commends that the children ought to_ be trained to
give regularly to the benevolent operations of the
Church, and by so doing the contributions would be
increased at least one-fifth, if not more. •
Expansive . Churches. The Congregationdise
gives the followingadvice on the subject of building
expensive-churches It is sometimes a; great mistake
for a society, weak in numbers and finances, to at
tempt to build an- expensivq , church, such as may be
wanted after a few years. A much wiser course
would be to do as did Dr.'Lord's society, thirty years
ago, in Buffalo. They built for temporary use a plain
edifice; 25 byls, open to-the - roof, with a-single aisle
and seats for 400, costing $3OO. Externally-Whad a
rough appearance, lint was" nevertheless popular
as a religious home. Such a building, made. simply
convenient and comfortable, is more attractive than
a half-finished church and the difficult problem of
meeting the cost of a"-more expensive hciuse is thus
postponed till the day of large numbers and means.
Congregationalist.—Of the 241 Orthodox Con
gregational churches in Maine, only 59 have pas
tors, and 79 have stated supplies.—Three
Rev. E. M: Clark and wife, and Mrs. Simons,
sailed from Boston, last week, for the East.—Rev,
W. H. H. Murray, of Meriden, Ct., has accepted
the call of Park St. church, Boston, and will com
mence his labors in November. Salary $5,000, with
SLOW to 'ln-pet:the ex pang& ntpo.ving.--=-Agy: Wm.
A. Baitlett: of Brooltlyn, ha§ decided not to accept
the call to Chicago, from the feeling that - his work
in Brooklyn is not yet ,finished. This decision gives
unbounded satisfaction to -his peOple.—On a recent
Sunday, according,to„,the ,CintgrOationelist; Res De.
a
Boynton; pastor the elAire,hin,Washingten, wiib
drew the-letter of:resignation which he tendered
some 'Months since. LaSt winter, sixty-five members
of this ohurelii.(indludinethrei; out• of four of its
deacons,. and ,Gen..,Howard,) asked for a, . mutual
council, but were refused. The request was four
times made,
.and.four times ,voted down under the
application of the previous - Ipiestion,t.theminorkty
not being, allowed even to present their reasons.
After an ex-parte,courcil ha& been called; and some
of the leading pastors of the land had written that
"it was a wrong to Congregationalism, and:to the
Church of Christ, to refuse a council to so larnre atid
•
so respectable a minority," thechinch vo ed‘ p.cal
a mutual . council. But the paster. and that:part9f
the Committee which agreed with ,him, refused, to
call it for three months, naming the thirteenth- of
October as the day of the council.,Just before that
' day came, Dr. BoYrilmi tendered' his resignation,
and-held that this tender did away with the -neces
sity of calling -a conned, And now, October.l3th
having gone by ; Dr. Boynton has withdrawn. Mare ;
signatioa, stating that he has been requested by the
`majority to continue their pastor.—The aggregate
age 'of the first nine Congregational churches of
Chicago—the First being seventeen years old, and
the youngest, six months—is eighty-six years.
These have had thirtpone stated ministers or pas
tors, which makes anaverage of two and two-thirds
}Tars. That lacks only.a little of the longer term
,of the.M..E. itineracy. That Is away to get variety.
Another Congregational church at: Clliago, with
sixteen members, was recognized Oct. lltb. grows '
out of the'lethany Mission of the Union Park
church riii*glie-Seminary.' Rev., James',Harrisoa
is laboring with the new enterprise, the tenth of
that denomination in the city.—Rev: Dr. Edward
Beecher of Galesburg, 111., tell through a railroad
,bridge at Burliagton,,a few days ago, and fractured
one of his arms, and in consequence was not able
to he•present at the Central Western-Association to
read his review of Bushnell, for which all were
looking with interest. It will come next time. r.
B. is again in, his!pulpit,iwith, , his;,arm in a sling.,
D ing.,
President Blanchard ha. also been badly thrashed
by ,a maahine,,but is recovering.
'EliiigcoPalian t —lnformationt was reed; v:ed ".cOn
Thursaity last, that" Bishop Stevens is lying danger
ously ill at the residenceof Mr. F. Winston, in New
York.—The youngest Bishop of
,the P. E. Board is
Bishop Tuttle, of the Diocese of Montana, He is
32 ,:and is of Methodist parentage. The neXt, young
est is Dr. Robertson, the newly elected Bishop of
the Diocese of Missouo. He ; is also the son of
Methodist'parents, and was'at one time a member
of tbell. Church—ln the EpiscoparCorfTen
tion, (says The Tribune),the
. Ty!% . case furnished
the suggestion for an earnest attemptas earnestly
resisted—to amend the canon. Some curious illus
trations were given of the extent
. to which a rigid
construetion'of it wohlinsOlate.and hamper clergy
men. Under .the panon, Fte cons,trusd Tyng
case, , for-example, a -Bishop -coal& not pronounce
the benediction at:a - meeting of the Bible Society,
without first obtaining permission of a majority of
the Episcopal` clergymenrof Newlork. Some slight
'amenithients were , thadeAtir did cation; ielieving it
of these absurdities, but not divesting it of its per
tinency to such cases as that of:Tyng and Hubbard.
—The admission of the new 'diocese of Nebraska
was opposed_ because the - conventionof ;the
~ , D iocese calls itself a Council, and ign6res the term
" Protestpt Apiscopal " I the , ,style;:of the diocese ;
but its admission, was ~ at_ last . carried. The action
taken on the CRAM -under Which Tyng fief- con-
demned, relaxes it somewhat, but still requires the
consent of the local church authorities before preach
ing in another's parish.—Memphis papers say that
the High-Churchmen of that city, under the leader
ship of the Rev. J. W. Rogers, have introduced in
the church of the Blessed Virgin the ceremonies of
Ritualism, an immense congregation •witnessing
them. Bishop Quintard of Tennessee, (who is him
self a High-Churchman and fraternized with the
most ultra Ritualists while recently in England,)
has since forbidden such practices in his diocese.—
Rev. B. Wistar Morris, of Germantown, Pennsylva
nia, has been elected Bishop of Oregon and Wash
ington Territory. "This election," says
,the
~Protes:
tant dkurchrnan„ " adds another vote to the don:kW;
