The Prolotery of Meadville passed the paper
sent down by the last Assembly; expressed
preference diet the union should take place on
the Standards without note or comment and the
abolition of the Tenth Article.
The Pre.. hytery of Brooklyn have adopted the
recommendation of the Re-union Committee,
amending the Basis in respect to the First and
Tenth articles. The stated clerk writes: "The
Presbytery adopted the Basis as overtured from
the General Assembly with great unanimity.
The same cannot be said of their adoption of the
suggestions of the committee. While not dia.
P osed to be captious, it is the opinion of several
hi the Presbytery that the General Assembly
can take no definite action without an overture
to the Presbyteries. Some of us think that our
branch of our church has already gone quite
half-way, and that a due self-respect requires us
to wait a little for some response from our bre
thren."
Commissioners to the General Assembly are,
Rev. Norman Seaver, D.D., and Samuel Carlisle
as primaries, with Rev. A. N. Freeman and
Theo. S. Brown as alternates. Lay Commissioners,

The Presby.ter,y of Cleveland and Portage,o ~ met
in Salem, April 6th and 7th. A Committee was
appointed who prepared a programme, which, if
carried out, must make our meetings both in
teresting and profitable. Arrangements were
also made, which we hope will be successful, in
providing more efficient care and help for our
feeble and vacant churches. If our plan suc
ceeds, the details will be given to the public
hereafter.
On Reunion,the amendment to the Basis pro
posed by the Committee of our Assembly was
unanimously adopted. We had several other pro
positions befure us from the Synod of Wheeling
and from the Central Presbytery of Philadelphia.
So far as these reeommeniations were in har
mony with the recommendation of our own Com
mittee, there was no need that we should re
affirm them ' • and, so far as they were different,
no response from us would be of any use, as fur
nishing a basis on which the Assembly might
act. We were rejoiced and encouraged by the
fraternal spirit expressed in both these papers.
Commissioners to the General Assembly :—Prin
cipals, Rev. Samuel C. Aiken, D.D., and James
Shaw, D.D., Alternates, Rev. Raymond 11.

candidates for the gospel ministry.
The Presbyter,/ of Ripley, at Decatur, 0., ap
proved our Committee's proposed amendments to

dards pure and simple," &e., was adopted by an
unanimous vote at the meeting of this Presby-
tery, April 15th, 1869, at Effingham. To this was
added us an amendment, by a majority vote, the

the desire of this Presbytery that the, whole mat
ter of Reunion may be submitted to the judgment

Nearly half of our churches report refreshing
revivals during the past winter, and accessions of
from 14 to 30 each. Among these I may men
tion Tuscola. Shelbyville, Cerro Gordo, Pleasant
Prairie and Neoga.
We missed the familiar face of dear Brother
and Father Enoch Kingsbury—whom the Master
has taken to Himself. Few men were more
genial and faithful to the work committed to their
care. May we all be found equally faithful by
the great Master when He calls us to render up
account of our Stewardship. E. BLACK, S. S.
Salem Presbytery met at New Albany, Ind.
Reunion received cordial approval, and Commis
sioners, Rev. C. llutchingscin and Elder M. C.
Browning, were instructed to vote for it on the
terms of the Assembly's Committee, with dis
cretionary pOwers.
The Dove of Peace still hovers over New Al
bany, and the mercy drops that fell on Mt. Tabor
one year ago have not yet passed away. St.
John's Church, just enrolled, introduced to the
Presbytery one of its members, a young man of
promise, as a'candidate for the gospel ministry.
This incident, occurring in less than one half
hour after that church was received, speaks well
for its beginning.
The Presbytesw of Chicago held its.'annual
meeting in the Second church, Chicago, April
12th. and 13th. The attendance was unusually
large, twenty-seven of its forty ministers and
eighteen of the nineteen churches answering to
the roll call. Two new churches have been re
ceived during the past year, several candidates
for the ministry have come under the care of
Presbytery; and two students of the North
western Theological Seminary were examined and
licensed. New Committees on Foreign Missions,
Publication and Sunday schools were organized,
and preparation made for more prompt and effi
cient work..
The chief feature of interest, during the meet
ing, was the action taken on the Overture on Re
, union. It was decided first to take up the arti
' cies seriatim. A full discussion followed. Arti
cles 2nd and 10th were hot approved. The re
maining articles were unanimously approved. The
answer to the question of approval of the Over
ture as a whole was in the negative. The amend
ments presented by our Assembly's Committee
were given unanimous consent and approval.
Later. in the session it, was "Resolved, That, in
approving the plan of Reunion submitted to us
by the General Assembly with the amendments
proposed by the Committee en' Reunion of our
Assembly, we do so with the understanding de
fined by that Committee in relation to liberty of
opinion, and the explanations of the Joint'Com
, mittee.” D. S. JOHNSON, S. C.
The Pres. of Galena and Belvidere, 111., April
13-15, on Re-union, Resolved, that' we' approve
of the Basis of Re-union proposed . by the Joint
Committee, and adopted by the General Assem
bly at Harrisburg in May, 1868, with the omis 7
sions proposed by our Committee on Re-union.
And in case the Re union cannot be effected on
this basis, then Resolved, that we would cordial
ly approve of Re-union on the basis of, our, com
mon standards pure and simple, leaving all mat
ters which have been subjects of negotiation be
tween the two bodies, to be'afterwards settled by
the United Church ; and that the General As
sembly be authorized to consummate the union
on this basis without referring 'the subject 'again
to the Presbyteries. Commissioners : Revs. john
M'Lean and Josiah Leonard ; Elders, C. A.
Shaw and Thomas Wilson; Alternates Revs. E.
Marsh and Robert Proctor; Elders, J. H. Rogers
and D. Miller.
The churches of Garden Plain and Fulton re
port powerful revivals. In Fulton especially, a
glorious work has been done. Nearly a hundred
have already joined the Presbyterian
,church.'
This work of grace is, a most interesting com
mentary on ri-union. One year ago the two
Presbyterian churcheS which had been strug
gling for existence many years—receiving foreign
aid and making little or no progress, 'were re-.
organized into one church.
God has blessed the union by this
,great in-,
gathering which more than doubled their Liam
hers in a single year. Why may not a similar
work sweep over the whole land ? E. H. A.
The Presbytery of Bloomington met in Wash
ington,
_lll, April 13. Cayuga church, a new
organization, was taken under the care of Pres
bytery. The pastoral relation between Rev. C.
D. Nott and the Urbana church was dissolved,
and Mr. Nott received a letter of dismission to
the Presbytery of Lexington. Rev. J. W. Bai
ley also received a letter of dismission to the
Presbytery of Illinois.
Commissioners, Rev. C. H. Palmer and Elder
B. E. Miles, Principals; and Rev. A.M. Mc-
Dougall and Elder L. W. Capen, Alternates, were

and Air i Albert A. Luce; alternates, Rev. A.
Gr. Martin. and Mr. Charles E. Mott. On Re.
union, the Basis of the joint committee was
adopted last October. At the April meeting,
the amendments to that Basis recommended by
our half of the Joint .Committee were adopted,
and the clause added, " or we authorize our com
missioners, if they deem it wise and best, to vote
for re-union on the simple standar is."
Revivals were reported in the churches of
Coldwater, Three Rivers, Reading and Sturgis.
Houses of worship are building in Coldwater,
Three Rivers and Quincy. A report on the sub
ject of Manses and libraries for ministers, stated
that only one church in the Presbytery, viz.,
Three Rivers, has hitherto made such a provis
ion. The people of Parkville have just bought
a house for a minister when the latter can be se
cured. •The Presbytery is to hold an adjourned
meeting at. Quincy, on. Tuesday, the 15th of
June, with a view to ordaining Mr. G. B. Barnes.

The Sabbath-schools of the Central church,
N. S. (Coates below Fourth), celebrated their
34th anniversary on last Sabbath afternoon.
The church was filled to its utmost capacity;
addresses were delivered by Revs. E. J. Pierce
and F. A Hendricks, also by the Pastor, J. Y.
Mitchell. Besides singing and reading in con
cert, into which the children entered with spirit,
was the exhibition of idols and heathen curiosi
ties, by the Pastor with appropriate remarks. A
beautiful copy of " Christ in Song" aid flowers
in basket and , boquets were presented to the
Pastor, and flowers to the superintendents of the
different schools, and the two gentleman who
labored with great,success in the musidd instruc
tion of the children. The , number of i scholars in
all departments is more than threi;hundrecl,
while the success of the Mission school, started
a few months since, encourages all Lio believe,
that the building of the church edifim on the

A single spark may kindle a flame that will consume, a city, and

among the vegetable tonics of the age stands HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BITTERS, and whenever the vital.powers seem to lan
guish, or there is any reason . to suspect that the animal functions
essential to the oustentation and purification of the body are im
perfectly performed, this invaluable invigorant and' antiseptic
should at once be resorted to. Indigestion always produces weak
ness of the bodily powers. Sometimes it happens that the appe
tite demands more food . than the stomach can digest; though not
more, perhaps, than is required to keep up the full strength of the
frame. The object, under such circumstances, is to increase the
digestive capacity of the assimilating organ, so as to mike it eqtial
to the duty imp wed upon it by the appetite, and' capable of sup
plying the building material of the system at fleet to, it id required.
This object Is fully accomplished bp the use of the Bitters. They
tone and gently stimulate the cellular membrane which secretes
the gastric juice, and the result is that the solvent is mingled with
the foul in sufficient"quantity to convert all its nourishing parti
cles into mire and wholesome element. If, on the other band,
th ere Is a" deficiency of appetite, without any corresponding de
ficiency of digestive power, the effect of the tonic is to ,stimulate
a desire for food. In nineteen cases out of twenty, headache, nau

casual aches and pains to which humanity is subject, proceed pri.
marily from indigestion complicated with biliousness; and lor
