Presbyterian Union in England.—At the re
cent meeting of the Synod of ,the English U. P.
Church, a delegation from the English Presbyterian
Synod was present to urge the propriety of a union
of. the English Churches without waiting till the
Free Church of Scotland shall have been able to
satisfy the scruples of Dr. Begg and the other Scot
tish " watch dogs " of traditional orthodoxy. It was
felt that a fruitful and harmonious union could eas
ily be effected in England, and ought not to he de
layed. The U. P. Synod complied with the sugges
tion, and raised a Committee for separate negotia
tions, but with the promise that they would not
consent to cease acting as an integral part of the
U. P. Church of Great Britain,
Odense's Successor.-The Tory Administration
seem not to have dared to their promise, that
the royal warrant for the ordination of new Bishop
of Natal ,Would be issued in dike: form.—The Bishop
of Capetown has gone back to Africa, taking the
Bishop elect with him. It is said his heart is sad at
the faithlessness of Government officials in general,
and of the Colonial Secretary in particular. He finds
great difficulty in getting his various projects safely
through the shoals of ministerial navigation.
Politics and Religion.—Church-going English
men have,been experiencing the horrible fate im
agined by Rev. SidneysSmith,—" being preached to
death by wild curates." The pulpits of the Estab
lishment have been ringing with eulogies: of "little
Benjamin" [Disraeli] who is held up to public ad
miration as "a second Joseph," while Gladstone
and his allies are denounced as allies of Rome and
of Satan... In Ireland several-Presbyterians have
come forward as Liberal candidates for Parliament
and advocates of disestablishment, to the horror of
the old-style Tories, who believe in the Protestant
peace. One of lie four candidates for Belfast (an
elaer) received such an amount of support from the
leadiag ministers of the denolnipation that_theCon--
servatives resorted to Ihangusual expedient' ofgetti ng
the venerable Dr. Cooke, who, is lying on his death
bed, to address an appeal
o the Protestant electors
to vote for their two candidates. He published a fare
well address', stating that they will hear his voice no
more, and making the support of the Conservative
candidates and of the Irish
_Church a duty which
the electors owe to their country, their religion, and
their God. The genuineness of the document has
been called in question, and even the old man's
daughter has entered the field to vouch that it 'is
not a forgery, and that she saw her father revising
the proofsheet. This lady's letter has been publish
as an advertisement in the local organs, and is now
placarded on the walls of Belfast. It is insinuated
that she may have been the writer of the original
letter; but whoever may have penned it, all who
have ft rogard to the memory of the dying man
deplore its appearance.
Quakerism on the Increase.—ln several places
in the rural districts of Westmoreland and Craven
(in North-West Yorkshire) there is now taking
place a remarkable conversion to the principles of
Quakerism. In some villages the inhabitants gath
er together by scores to worship in silence, with the
occasional exhortations and readings of Holy Scrip
tures. Very few members of the Society of Friends
are resident amongst these converts, but six or
eight Friends visit the new meetings occasionally
and stir up the brethren. Some of the local Meth
odists and others have been compelled to establish
prayer-meetings every night to prevent their mem
bers from being attracted to the new Quaker folds,
and increase their zeal for the old communion. This
results in good to all parties. The -.district of the
Lakes and Dales has for two centuries been a favor
ite locality for Quakerism, but of late years it had
very much fallen -'asleep thcre-:—" The Prien/W
First-day (Sunday) School Association report that
the annual investigation made' by the Committee
into the numerical condition of our schools shows
that there were in Third Month last, 77 schools in
64 places, with 1,095 teachers, and 12,474 scholars.
In their report of 1854 .when the total number of
our scholars was about 3,000, the Committee point
ed out that it would not be beyond the possible
teaching power of Friends in Great Britain to in
struct 20,000 First-du scholars."
Evangelicalism in Oxford.—A. recent report
that the entire body of the undergraduates at this
University are ritualistic in sympathy and opinion,
has elicited some facts to the contrary. An average
of upwards of thirty young men meet weekly for
prayer 'at the house of one of the most evangelical
of Oxford rectors ; many meet daily for the same pur
pose in one another's rooms ; some half-dozen or doz
en conduct a Sunday-school,_which numbers sixty
scholars; a society, bolding similar views,-distri
butes tracts weekly in many of the villages round
Oxford; and the rector gathers, once each term, at
his house, from 100 to 150 undergraduates.
The Irish Presbyterian Church, besides at pre
sent establishing churches at the watering-places
and the great tourist resorts, has appointed a mis
sionary to Alexandria, in Italy, and another to
Vienna, both in connection with the Jewish mission,
but to take advantage of all openings for spreading
the Gospel ; has designated a clerical and a medical
missionary to commence a mission in' China at
Neuchang, where Mr. Burns died; and returns her
late Moderator to India, accompanied by a fresh
missionary for the station there. There are now
fifty-six colporteurs employed and training for their
special work. They pass freely through the sk.uth
ern and western counties, meeting many welcomes,
large sales, and,on the whole, few rebuffs. Once a
year they meet at their provincial centres, pass an
examination, and receive words of encouragement
and counsel. Some of them assist in prayer-meet
ings; most of them find ready opportunities of
reading the Bible to Roman Catholics, and the col
porteur's pack has been sometimes opeoed in a con
vent. The necessities of trade have drawn Roman
Catholic workers into Protestant neighborhoods,
and the opportunities of farming have" drawn Pro
testant settlers into Roman Catholic `districts and,
as.this interchange of population goes on, there is
a fusion that can but issue in the wider spread of
evangelical truth.
Ecclesiastical LaNiluits and Troubles.—The
prosecution of Rev.:W. J. E. - Bennett of Frome fOr
teaching the Romish heresy of the real and visible
presence of the body and blood of Christ, in the ele
ments of the Eucharist, has not yet come before
the Court of Arches.—Rev. Chas. H. Voysey, the
loosest theologian in the-church of England, is to
be prosecuted for denying , about half the fundamen
tal doctrines of the Christian faith. Father Ignatius
recently anathematized him from the pulpit, and
taught the congregation how to spell 'the name of
the heretic, so that they might be, the , better on their

says the memorialists may prosecute Mr. Purchas

from £1,500 to £2,500.
THE CONTINENT.
French Protestantism.--There are some sad
indications of the growth of Rationalism in the
established churches. One pastor, hitherto thought
orthodox repudiated the doctrine of plenary
inspiration, and said that it has now few par
tizans among them, and that the sceptical
school was likely to lead the future. The Ra
tionalists,propose the division of Paris into five
reformed churches, each having its separate consis
tory ; they are petitioning the minister of Public
Worship to that - effect ; they have also broached
the Matter in relation to the Lutheran Church in
Paris. But the plan meets with too much opposi
tion to have success at present. Of course they ex
pect that, out of five consistories, some would be
rationalistic: The wa'r between the orthodox and
rationalists often descends to gross personal
iries and pitiful details, not to speak of the bitter
language indulged in.—The Synod of the Free Church
es met at the commencement of September in Ber
gerac (Dordogne); 44 churches were,representet&by
66 delegates ;au some foreign .delegate-iisitors,
were there. They !Meted the reconciliation of par
ties in two churches of the Union, one of which
had been_cut off from fellowship on, account of tis
intestine' brciils. Ten 'posts of. evangelization are
sqpported by the union. Funds are lqw. It sup
ports five of its fifteen theological student§ at Gene
va and Lausanne.
Christian Work in Germany.—" About eight
years ago, Mr. Woodruff, a merchant of BrociklYn,
with the aid of a retired Breinen merchant, estab
lished, f), Sunday school -at Bremen..As ,the result
of influences - thus set' in Motion Since 1861; 'B5
schools. have been established in. Germany and Ger
man Switzerland. Here is the net result., In Ger
many sixty-six schools, with_ nine bundred and
eighty-one teachers and eleven thousand two hun
dred and ninety-nine scholars ; in German SwitZer
land, nineteen schools,. with f.wo hundred and twen
ty-two teachers, and two thousand three hundred.
and fifty-three scholars. Such, were the figures at the
beginning of the present year. As the schools have
been prosperotts-oClate'i ttie94.statitit t ias iiiadequate- ;
ly represent their present numbers. This Sunday
school movement upcontinually gathering strength
as it moves on. Ardent friends are here and there,
springing up."—Dr. Anderson, in' Watchman and Re-'
Actor. .
The Austrian Clergy.—lt will be remembered
that when the liberal laws on the subject of mar:
riage,.education, &c., were,enacted, and-relActantlyl
signed by the Emperor, the Pope itistruefedtis-pre
lates to treat them with contempt. A very unsatis
factory- explanation was. afterwards offered. to; the
Austrian 'Government, 'Which subsequent events
have shown to have meant nothing at all. The
Bishops, in accordance with their master's order,
set themselves in opposition to the laws, as their
Church was wont to do of old: but this time with
out very flattering success. Five of the contumacious
Bishops are to be prosecuted as disturbers-of, the
peace; one of whom, the Bishop of Linz, is called l i
to account for declaring-in a "pastoral letter," that
the Constitution of the realm waa" a work of the
devil "—implying, of course, that, as such, it must
be resisted—and the others for persistent violation
of the plain provisivs of the laar. The Archbishop-
Cardinal of Vienna, orders his prieSts to refuse` all
abiolution to those who are civilly married, even if
they be in danger 'of - death. 'Every time,' says the
Bishop of Brund, in an evangelical circular written
with his own hand, 'every tiwe that you will have
to register the birth of a child horn from parents
who have been married before the civil authorities,
you will erase the words legitimate child.'
" Theerical Question, (says Le Phare de
Loire) is t e artier of the day all over-Earope. With
us everybo y knows what point it has reached i the
last processions of Corpus Christi may serve as a
thermometer to it, and the next' elections will take
care to furnish us with unmistakable.indications for
the future. In a small parish of Corsica, called Luri,
things have taken quite an vexpected turn. The
inhabitants of that locality, liTivi ng,sonie grounds of
complaint against their priest 4 have, unanimously
resolVed to abstain.from his ministry.. They no more
go to his church 5 they are born, married, and. bur
ied without the services
. of the cure, being ever re
quired by hisparishiohers; •It:is really an excom
munication reversed. It is a sort of interdiction
going up stream."
Religious Liberty in Spain.—A correspondent
of the London Times, at Madrid, states that the En
glish residents in that city applied to the Revolu
tionary Government fora plot of ground. whereon
to build an English church, thesinall room set apart
an the ground floor of .'theßritish Legation affbrd
ing barely decent accommodations. Through Col.
Fitch they made application for a site on the Calle
del Arena].. The cable informs us of the success of
their application A previous 'similar application
,tb the Local'Junta at Seville was answered as fol
lows: , " This Junta has this day (0ct..2c1) decreed
to grant you the permission which you have solicit
ed, to establish a chapel,in
,which the individuals
of the Protestant faith can carry on their. religion
in the fcirin their worship prescribes." The appli
cation-was Made by the AmeriCan Consul,Mr. John
Cunninham, a Scotch merchant of high standing
in Seville, , .
A'correspondent of The London Times writes:—"l
fell in the other day with.a priest, the narrow spabe
:between ndiose temples, roundprontinentforehead,
broad chin, and marble brow constituted
Spanish type. .He had gone out to Morocco as a
Franciscan missionary; he had fallen in with an
English layman who had discussed with him the
merits of their respective creeds ; he had , been won
over to Anglicaniszn, , had gone to Gibraltar; and was
preparing, to go to the United States; when upon
hearing of the Revolution and of the proclaimed
freedom of creed and Worship, he conceived the bold
plan of coming to Madrid as the apostle of Evan
gelism. He is this very day to : reach before a very
large strictly Catholic congregation at Arganda, a
few leagues from Madrid, and purposes to explain
to his audience what construction should be put
upon those words, freedom of conscience.' If he
NA not stoned to death, he may be Wailed as an
apostle."
The Jesuits' Suppression in Spain.—The Pro
visional Junta, before its dissolution, suppressed the
Society Utile jesuits throughout Spain and the Span-
WI islands; ordering its colleges and institutions td
be closed within three days from the date of the
decree; and declaring its movable and immovable
property sequestered to the State. The costly pro
perty accumulated at the shrine of "Our Lady of
Atocha," (to whom, on one occasion, Queen Isabel
la gave a crown of jewels worth over half a million
of dollars, and whose entire collection of treasures
is said to be worth at least five millions of dollars),
has been 'seized, and will; be used by the government.
The - Cutting off of his' eiormoui annual subsidy
from Spain, will ten4o make the Pope hereafter
less easy in his money matters.—A letter from Bel
gium says: "The Jesuits established at Bruges have
pet purchased , large property there, probably-to
'afford quarteriLfOr , :some of. the Meinbers , or that
order now expelled from Spain,. of ,whom it is said
about 150 intend taking shelter ill BelgiUm."
The Bible in Spain.—The fact is brought out by
,the revolution which had been before.keptpriyale,
that a society 'had long existed in EdinbUrgh for the
diffusion of the Bible in Spain. It is called the
Spanish EvingeliiiliOn;SObielyilaiiii.it has in thir:.
feen letirb klistribdteil tens , o thousandwatoopicstof
the Scriptbrett,lantiAliundtedii of' ,thaiiattbdifklf other
religious publications, through its agents, who have
been all the while at work in the very heart of the
country. Its yearly income has been four or five
thousand dolars. Many of its books have even been
printed in Spain, of course very secretly. Now that
the country is thrown open by the new government,
and religious labors are destined to be perfectly free,
the British and Foreign Bible Society is promptly
preparing to possess tne land. An English paper
informs us that already "large supplies of the Span
ish Scriptures are collected at the frontiers, arrange
ments are being made for the establishment of de
pots at the chief centres of population, and a cohort
of col porteurs are ready to march through the length
and breadth of the country as soon as the promises
of complete religious freedom are made good by
law."—An English letter from Madrid says: "Our
Protestant fellow-countryinen are not likely to let
the grass grow under their feet. Distributors of Bi
bles and tracts have already begun their operations
in the great cities, and two bold Britons have been
seen giving the sacred volume to people in that very
`Plaza Mayor,' where not more than a century ago
the population of the city sat down to enjoy what
was then the favorite national holiday—an auto- da
fe of heretics and Hebrews.' . '—The American Bible
SOciety, at its last meeting, made a grant of Bibles
for Spain, to go through the hands of the American
and Foreign Christian. Union, who already have an
agent in that country. The only other grant of
bles for Spain, to be found on the records of the.so-'
dielY, Was made in thelyOr abquethiftY years:
ago. A' box of Bibles was forwarded' by a gliip
- bound to' a Spanish port. But the captain became'
so uneasy, as they drew towards their port, with`the
fear of having his ship and cargo confiscated for
having Bibles onboard, that at last lie had the bOx
of Bibles brought on deelt, lashed some'heavy stones
to - it, and sunk it in the sea, and that wdi ;the last
of it.
Disestablishment Ur ed in India.—Tbe
,t,ln
dian Government. has-jn. given ten thousand.ru
pees for the repair of St. mil's Cathedral in. Cal
cutta. Onceon a time-anincident like that would
have been allowed to' pasS without remark: Now,
hoWever; th'e act' iS sharply censured, especially be
cause the cathedral is given over by the bishop to
a clique:, f Ritualists: T-iii natives, too, ;are eve
daily iliSsatisfied, Said wilili all the World; take up
the cry of disestablishment. The Hindu Patriot .
thinks the Government might have been better ern-4
ploye'd in considering hoW the Church Establish-
Ment in India, like that' of lieland, might be re
trenched. or abolished. "The . bishop draws.a prince
ly salar from our publicir•evenue, and its archdea
cons and chaplainerecei4 1120 and. 650 rupees a
month." The Indian Da:4y Rews says: "This ten

Statesmen have been very carefdl not to teach the

and justice, that whatever may be the apparent ne

PREPARED BY Dr. C. M. Jackson,
Twenty,two years since they were first introduced into
this country from Germany, during which time . ..they have
undoubtedly yerformed more cures, and benefited suffering
humanity to, a greater extent, than any other remedies
known to the public.
These remedies will, effectually, cure Liver Complaint,
v
Ja u n d ice, Dyspepsia, Chronic or Yervons De
bility, Chronic Diarrhtea, Disease of the Kidneys
and all Diseases arising from a Disordered Liver,
Stomach, or Intestines. - •

There is no medicine extant equal to these remedies in
such cases. A tone and vigor is imparted to the whole sys
tem, the appetite is strengthened, food is enjoyed, the
stomach digests promptly, the blood is purified, the com
pleiion becomes sound and healthy, the yellow tinge is
eradicated from 'the eyes, a bloom is given to the cheeks,
and the weak and nervous' invalid becomes a strong and
healthy being.
PERSONS ADVANCED IN LIFE,
And feeling the hand of time weighing heavily upon them,
with= all its attendant ills, will find in the use of this BIT
TRRS, or the TONIC,, an elixir that will instil new life
into their veins, restore in'a measure the energy and ardor
of more youthful days, build up their shrunken forms, and
give health and happiness to their remaining years.
NOTICE.
It is a Well-established; fact that fully one-half of the fe
male portion of our population are seldom in the
enjoyment of good health; or, to use their
own. expression '
" never feel well." They are lan
guid, devoid of all energy, extremely nervous, and have no
appetite.
To this class of persons the BITTERS, or the TONIC, is
especially recommended.

They will Mire every man of MARASMUS, without fail.
