Campbell, District Secre tary writes: “I think within the next four weeks we shall have Four, perhaps five new chrtrohes, formed on my field. Indianapolis. —The Second church had a very valuable addition of thirteen members on the Ist Sabbath id this month. The pastor, Rev. H. A. Kil.-on, says that he has never known the church to be better organised for work than it is now. San Francisco, Cal. —At the annual sale of pews in Howard church, the highest premium was $550 and the aggregate premiums were ,55.550, or enough to free the church from debt, t )u the Sunday previous a Chinese Sunday school was organised in the church. Itevivals. Wabash College. —Prayer-meetings were held throughout the Fall Term, which awaksped pro fessing Christians to life and sinners to serious ness. Since the beginning of. the year, the in terest has greatly deepened. Several instances are known of Btuaents uniting in prayer with each other, and unknowingly with Christian parents for the conversion of a fellow-student with blessed results. Many seem deeply serious, and a great outpouring of the Spirit is expected, like that which the college enjoyed two years ago, , Cincinnati. —There is some special interest in several of our churches which will be more fully reported in due time.— Christian Herald. Fort Wayne , Ind. —Rev. Geo. 0. Little writes to The Christian Herald: “ The Week of Prayer was extended into a Month of Prayer in our church, and Christians were much revived. On the 31st of Jan., we received on profession 14, as first fruits of the year.” Higginsport, o. —Rev. J. DeLamater, by ap pointment of Presbytery, held a communion ser vice with this vacant church on Jan. 24th, and preaching both before and after the Sabbath. The little company of believers was strengthened, / Six were added on profession, and one on certificate. Winchester, Adams Co., o. —Rev. David Van Dyke has, within a few weeks, received twenty six on profession. < Rome, o. —Rev. B. P. Adams’ congregation and the Methodists, are holding union meetings, with tokens of the Divine favor. Grafton. o. —This church has been greatly harmonised and strengthened by a recent revival, and has received nine persons to membership. Greenville , N. Y. —This church has been enjoy inga revival since the Week of Prayer, in connec tion with a very thorough and faithful visitation of the people by the pastor, Rev. Byrop Bosworth. About thirty-five have expressed hope in Christ, and the good work is still advancing. Greenville, Tenn. —This church has been lan guishing for years past, but under the pastorate of Rev. F. A. McCorkie shows signs of returning strength and life. Centreville, AT. Y. —This church is being pro foundly revived. Adams, AT. Y. —Rev. P. C. Headley writes from Adams, Jefferson Co.“ A few days since 1 came to this beautiful village, to assist the pas tor, Rev. E. Lord, whose health has been poor,. in a deepening work_of grace which is pervading the whole community. All the evangelical churches are active, and there are indications of a very extensive revival. There is a similar state of feeling in the ‘ Stone street ohurch,’ Water town, the principal village of the county, fourteen miles distant.” Lawton , Mich.- —A correspondent of The Herald writes:—“l have just returned from Law ton, where the little church, without a pastor, is enjoying a precious revival. Almost two weeks of labor in that field have witnessed a strengthen ing of the feeble things, the conversion of souls and the general enlargement of Zion. The whole village is moved. There have been large addi tions to the Baptist and Methodist churohes.” Parma, Mich. —This church has had a revival in which six or eight have been converted. Wabash, Ind. —The revival in this church con tinues to spread and deepen. From thirty to fifty have found the Saviour. The annual col lection for Church Erection and Home Missions is three times aB great as ever before. Mitchell, Ind. —Five persons have been re ceived, on profession of their faith, since the meetings commenced. Progress in China. —The Emperor of China has recently issued- an edict forbidding the re building of destroyed and repair of decayed idol temples, excepting the temples of Confucius. The principal judge of Suchow has forbidden the people of the city to worship in idol temples, burn incense, candles or silver paper before the idols-. Christianity is everywhere tolerated by a recent proclamation of the Emperor. Christians of all denominations thus find the field open to their missionaries. The outrage on the Wesleyan missionaries at Yangchow has been settled satis factorily. The local authorities in power at the date of the outrage have been dismissed, and in demnity for the losses sustained by the mission aries has been paid. A proclamation has also peen issued by the Chinese authorities setting fbrth that the treaty with England requires that the religious establishments of the missionaries shall not be annoyed, nor foreign travellers be treated with disrespect, and for violation of any of the articles- heavy penalties are prescribed. All of the missionary party, including the femi nine members, have been invited to return to. their posts and be formally reinstated. The ring leaders of the riot have been severely punished by fines and banishment.' The,party of reform is now the party in pdwer, and though vigorously opposed, promise to carry the day. The benign influence of Christians is freely acknowledged by the statesmen of China, even when they pro fess no knowledge of its deeper spiritual truths. Says one eminent writer': ‘The benefits we derive from the teachings of the missionaries, are more than we can enumerate. Their scientific teach ings are well adapted to augment the knowledge and quicken the intelleit bf China. Their influ ence on our future; will he unboirndeSf j' Since 600, B.

Occasionally we get a glimpse at statistics which barely hint to us the whole of what is going on. The Fifth Annual Report of the Ladies’ Benevolent Society of Clinton St. Church, shows that the receipts from November 1867, to March 1868, were $1,071.52; that a box, valued at $250, was sent to a Home Missionary, that $5OO was contribu ted towards completing a church building in Holton, Ks., $2OO were given to the Sunday schools of the church, and $121.52 applied to the poor, besides contributions of garments from the congregation. Mtb, March is President, Miss Hartnng Vice-President, and Mrs. W. F. Weaver Secretary and Treasurer. —Eastburn Mariners’ Bethel is the name of the new building recently erected in place of the old one, in Water St., built by Father Eastburn. The enterprise is in charge of the Rev. Henry F. Lee, pastor elect, and in the hands of our brethren of the other branch. The. Lecture room is now occupied,' and the remainder of the structure is drawing near completion. Five thousand dollars are needed to clear the enter prise of debt.

JB@“ Some recent accession to theO. S. church ,from “ the old country” will bear looking after. He writes (in the character of “ The Last Emi grant”) a long and brilliant letter to The Weekly Review of London, in which, after mentioning the existing status of the Union questioii among American Presbyterians and the probably suc cessful movement for Reunion on the basis of the Standards alone, he adds: But here again the folk here differ from you there: Even the Old School does not require subscription to the-letter of the Standards, — does not require every minister to swear in the language of the Larger Catechism; that God did make of nothing tbe world and all things there in within the space of six days. The obligation is—‘Do you sincerely receive and adopt the the Confession of Faith of this Church, as con taining the system of doctrine taught in the Holy Scriptures?’ In the Established Church of Scotland there were large temporal interests in volved in the- settlement of a minister over a 1 parish, and so persons had to be strictly bound in order to prevent the entrance of heterodoxy— which, however, entered after all. Here, where there is no state endowment, no one is under any temptation to professwha£ hedoes nqt bg-; lieve; if he a UalvTuist he will get plenty of sects to receive him; and so a general ad herence to the 'doctrine, supposed to be sincere, is held to be sufficient, Whether, the same gene ral declaration might suffice in the non-endowed ehurches of Great Britain, is a question which The Latest Emigrant is not prepared to start, much less to settle.” ' LESSONS ON PAUL—VI.

DEATH OF CLEH TIN GLBT. Mr. Clem Tlngley died on Saturday morning, tho 13th Inst- aged 75 years. Forty-seven years ago lie made a public profession of Jaith in Christ, by uniting with the First Presbyterian church m this city! Twenty years afterwards he whs cbosen one of the four elders who planted the colony of, the Clinton street church. He entered upon the duties of his new and responsible charge with great energy and singleness of heart, and he gave himeelf to the interests of the church with unabated seal and devotion to the lnst day of his life. The session had .just been increased by an election of four elders. They were set apart and ordained to their sacred office on the Sabbath before his death. He toolc part in-the solemn act of consecration, and he gave tbe right hand of fellow ship to the new elders with deep gratitude for the addition of strengthto *the session and “the promise of renewed *life and effi ciency to the church. During the following week,, he called re peatedly upon the pastor to express hU earnest desire to enter upon the most active and laborious measures, for the growth and spiritual prosperity of the Church. On Friday afternoon he was present at the first meeting of the session with its ne* mem bers. He reiterated-the expression of hts earnest desire to join with hie yoangerbi ethi en in the most faithful and persevering effort for the welfare of the Church, and for the revival of God’s work fn the whole congregation. On Friday evening he retired to rest in his usual he on Saturday morning he was found asleep—with no trace or sign of d'seompusure or suffering upon his face or in his posture—asleep in Jesus. So ended the earthly life of a good man, passing into ihO glorious and blessed life of heaven as the dawn passes into the Stilt day. He loved his Master’s work, and he was found iii the field of toil wheu the Master came to call him home. He loved the Sabbath sohoolj and he spent the morning hour of his last earthly Sabbath .in expounding the word Of God to hi* class. He loved the worship and the ordinances of God’s house, and he passed from the door of tbe earthly sanctuary to the assembly of the jast made perfect in heaven. He watched over the interests of the church with a ten der and parental solicitude. He labored and prayed to bring souls . to Christ with peculiar and untiring zeal to (he last. He visited the poor, the rich, and the afflicted, and hispresence would bring light and comfort into the saddest home. He bore many and sore afflictions with meekness and patience. In his own home, in the church, iu the relations of social and business life, he was most honored and beloved by those who knew him best.

At 500 miles of the western portion of the line, beginning at Sa cramento, are also done, but 267 MILES REMAIN To be Finished, to Open the Grand Through Line to the Pacific. This Opening will certainly take place early this season. Besides a donation from the Government of 12,800 acres of land per mile, the Company is entitled to subsidy in U. S. Bonds on its l'ne as completed and accepted,, at the average rate of about $26,600 per mile, according to the difficulties encountered, for which the Government take a second li«n as security. Whether sub sidies ere given to any other companies or not, the Government will comply with all its contracts with the Union Pacific-Railroad Company. Nearly the whole amount of bonds to which the Com pany will be entitled have already been delivered. First Mortgage Bonds AT PAR. By its charter the Company is permitted to issue its own FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS to the Same amount as the Government Bonds, and no more. These Bonds are & First Mortgage upon the whole road and All its equipments. THEY HAVE THIRTY YEARS TO RUN, AT SIX PER CENT., and both PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST PAYABLE IN GOLD. Such securities aie generally valuable in proportion to the I'nglh of time they have to run. The longest six per cent gold interest bonds of the U. S., (the ’Si’s) will be due in 12 years, and they are worth 112. If they bod 3u years to run, they would stand at not le-*s thau 125. A perfectly safe First Mortgage Bond like the Union Pacific shuuld approach this rate. The demand for European in vestment is already considerable, and on the of the work will doubtless carry the price to a large premium. SECURITY OF THE BONDS It needs no argnment to show that a First Mortgage of $26,500 per mile upon what for a long time must be the ouly railroad c n necting the Atlantic and Pacific States is perfectly secure. The entire amount of the mortgage will he about $30,000,000, aud the interest $lBOO,OOO per annum in gold. The present currency cost of this interest is less than $2,500,000 per annum, while the groeg earning* for the year 1868, FROM WAY BUSINESS only, on AN AVERAGE OF LESS THAN 700 MILES OF ROAD IN OPERA TION, WERE MORE THAN FIVE MILLION DOLLARS, The details ef which are as follows: From Passengers . “ Express “ Mails-—...i..;. “ Miscellaneous... “ Government troops... “ “ freight... “ Contractors’ men “ “ material This large amount is only an indication of the immen«e traffic that must go over the through line in a few months, when the great tide of Pacific coast travel and trade will begin. It is esti mated that this business mast make the earnings of the road from FIFTEEN TO TWENTY MILLIONS A YEAR. As the supply of these Bonds will soon cease, parties who desire to Invest in them, will find it for fcheirinterestto do so at once. The price for the preseut is par'and accrued interest from Jat. 1, in currency. 4. NEW PAMPHLET AND MAP wan issued Oct.
