rgitigiints gofiliput+ The Reformed Churches. Ministerial—Rev. Dr. H. A. Board man, of the Tenth church, Phila., hav ing lately returned from his residence in 'Minnesota with renovated-health, told his people of what he- had seen of the needs of the churches there, and they immediately raised 81,000 to meet the wants of their brethren in that State. —Rev. Wm. Ferguson has-accept ed a unanimous call from the chinch of Waynesburg, Pa. His address is Honey Brook, Chester Co., Pa —lt is said that.the summand popu larity of the Rev. John Hall, D. D., and the Rev. James M'Cosh, D. D., LL.D., are attracting a large number of Irish clergymen to Our country. In the mean time it should not be overlooked that there are not many churches such as the nue at the corner of Fifth Avenue and Nineteenth Street, N. Y., vacant; nor are many Colleges such as Princeton in need of a President. And we presume it is safe to say, that every Irish clergy man is not a John Hall or a James M'Cosh.—Pres. Barmen:- , —Rev. Dr. Wadsworth, of San Fran cisco, is called to the pastorate,of the Third Cong. Church, of New Haven, Conn. Churches.—That Colored Church , which recently went over from the Cum. berland Presbytery of' Leavenworth '(not Kansas) to the Congregationalists, had' no good reason for the change, nor was it at all a courteous act to accegyhem, if' The Cumberland Presbyterian of Alton is correct. " One ordained Preach er and his congregation petitioned to be taken under the care of the Presbytery; the minister to be a member of Presby tery. But in the petition presented were false and= standeroui statements concerning the Board of Home Mis-. sions of, the Cumberland. Presbyterian Church, which the Presbytery asked Mr. Weir either to withdraw altogether or wait until the Board could be notified and the mattereinvestigated. Mr. Weir refused to do this, and abruptly with drew his petition before any vote was taken. Afterward he and his congrega tion joined the Congregationalists, and the statement,was made in The Advance and The independent, and from them copied into many other papers, that he . was refused membership in the Presby tery on account of his color. Mr. Weir was licensed and ordained many years ago by Anderson Presbytery, of the Cumberland. Presbyterian Church, in Kentucky, and from that day to.the,day he left our Church; had been' a-Member of Presbytery on perfect ecclesiastical equality with all others. Moreover he had been honored .with anappointment as missionary to Africa, and had been in that country for several years, until the Spring of 1868, when he returned to this country on an agreement between the Board of Missions and himself that he was to spend a year or two in mis sionating among the colored people of the South." —The Occident announcing that a new church was dedicatOd to the wor ship of God, at, 'Sahta Rosa, on Sabbath, July 25th, says : " This makes five Presbyterian churches "Which have been built in the south-western part of Sono ma county, chiefly through the labors of Rev. Thomas Frazer, the faithful ,mis sionary agent of the Church viz : that at Two Rocks, cost about $3, 500; that at Tomales, cost'about $4,000, but was burnt. just before completion; another has been erected at eomewhat less cost; the church at Bloomfield, not yet finished, is to cost $7,000; the one at Bodega Cdrners to cost $2,500 or 83,000. There is also a smaller build ing at Valley Ford, where services are held. The church at Santa Rosa com pletes the list." —The Park church of Syracuse is baying a steady growth. Hamilton College has recently honored its pastor with a D. D., so that he is now the Rev. Dr. Strong. His , church is nominally, Old School, but really in sympathy with us, in every good word and work. They are rejoicing greatly in the prospect of reunion. It, will be a great relief to them in the matter of ecclesiastical conven ience, for at present they are connected with the Mohawk Presbytery—a small body, extemporized into existence` to accommodate the prejudices of two or three men a dozen years ago, and cover ing the territory of all Central New York, joining boundaries with Albany on the east, and Rochester on the west, and having only six or eight churches in all. In view of cases like thin, the union of the two General Assemblies is greatly to be desired.--Evangetist. —The First Church of Walnut Hills, Ohio, has recently erected a commodious parsonage on their church lot, which is 60 by 125 feet. The parsonage is two stories high, built of brick, and costs. about $5,500. In the ,style and con venience of apartments it is among the best residences in the congregation. Except about $3,500, received for the old parsonage,:atellmoney has =all been subscribed and paid during, the, past year. Besides ' this` congregation have built and paid for. a Sunday,-school room for the infant class. Every church should make an effort: to have a parson age. There could be three thousand built next year, the first . year of the United Church. It would be an, easy work.--Presbyter. The Canada Presbyterian Church, the larger of the two bratichesin the old' provinces of Canada, reports her strengtk as follows :—Number of PreEibyteries, 15; ministers, 295, an increase of 17 on last year ; congregations, 619 ; families, 27,548, an increase of 2,714; member ship, 45,896, an increase of 3,787 ; chil dren in Sabbath Schools, 27,616; in Bi ble classes, 8,191'; Ruling Elders, 1,692 ; other office-bearers, 4,725 ; manses, 136 ; built during the year, 30 churches, 16 manses; average .stipend of ministers, $673, and increase of $4B; contributions per member for all purposes, $8.59 ; to tal contributions for all purposes $393,- 583.27, an increase of $46,936.35. They alsO reporethe number of families in each congregation, number of single persons unconnected with families, num ber of pastoral visitations made, number of sittings in each church, the arrears of pastor's salary due in each , church, the provision of manses, the number of vol umes in S. School and congregational libraries, &c., &c.,—showing that the Canada Synod watches faithfully over its churches. The Presbyterian Excursion to the Pacific, proposed by the two Presbyte ries of Chicago, was referred to by Chap lain Stewart in his letter 9f last week. Dr. Robt. Patterson says The plan proposes that the Board of Domestic Missions send out a ;delegation ``of one hundred ministers and laymen, to begin a series of religious meetings at Omaha, and go over the Pacific Railroad; holding meetings every night, and selecting sta tions for missions and churches; and get ting grants of ,land for sites. At San Francisco 'they are to divide, the two parties going all along the coast, north and south, prosecuting the same work. On returning East they go by half:doz ens to all the principal churches, tell what they have seen and, done, and en .deavor at once- to raise a fund• of. half a million to occupy the ground •gone over. "If such an enterprise is •,to be at tempted, it is evident that no delay should be allowed in' the undertaking. Events will not wait. What _may be clearly practicable this year, Will be im possible next .season."' . The. Lynn Trial', at Pittsbuigh, al-' though resulting in acquittal, excites' Very unfavorable comments from. the :preas. The 'Pittsburgh correspondent of The National Baptist says : " The trial was public, and the interest, on the part of the people, in the affair, increased as the investigation proceeded, until, at the publication of the verdict of ' not guiltVi a gleam of satisfaction played over the entire community. Not that they by any means believed the young .man en tirely guiltless, but becauie they were ,convineed that the ecclesiastical court that had cited him were incompetent, for many reasons; to give him' an impar tial trial: His accusers were; At the same time; his prosecuthrs, the witnesses ,against him, and, the Zury to act'on, their own indictment - , and, to weiglf theft owu testimony; and to gisle in the fiaal,`yer'- - diet." , A 'correSpondent of The „Presbyterian Banner says : ' I'. The , prosecutor ' declare in' 'his speech that, the respondent "should' not have the benefit of a doubt 1 2. It was Assumed all through the prosecution, that, the accused must prove' his innocence, instead of the prosecntion proving' his guilt. 3. 'To the respondent's complaint 'that the "'time ; Place, and. circumstance of-the offence charged should have been given in the presentment, the prosecu i tina b counsel answered, that if the ac ,cused ,did,hot ha,Ye theae 'things before hand, as the book directs, he could get them from the testimony given against him. 5 'The. presentment violated all the principleS'of entering a prosecution, all the ; lawsi , of cifation ofwitnesses, limi tation of time, limits of jurisdiction. 6. The prosecution broached the idea that the defence could, he compelled to pro ceed before the prosecution was through. Foreign.—Antonio Carrasco, a com panion of Matamoros, who sacrificed his lifelor'the cause of the Gospel, was set, apart to the ministry at Geneva, in. June last. He bad studied at Lausanne, and was about to commence labors,in his na tive land. The English correspondent of The Congregationalist and Recorder says: "At the foot of the Pyrenees, on the frontier of the Spanish peninsula, there is a band of faithful disciples of the Reformation, who consider it a sa cred duty for them to introduce the Bi ble and religious tracts into Spain, and to send evangelists tbither. . Theirs is, apparently, but an humble work, but it has already produced excellent results." Other, Denominations. Congregationalist —Rev.
