the rate of two a week.
—The Congregational Union, in its
sixteenth annual report says that from
the organization of the society to the
present time, 375 churches have received

gregationalists ate ready, as a body, to
sanction the abandonment of some of the
truths of the Bible -which they hold as
most precious, without even the effort to
ascertain whether they are held - by its
candidates for ordination? We trow
not Mr. Shorey had been acting as

copal settlement with a clergyman of that
Church, as its instructor; and in which
the Liturgy of the time of James I. was
in constant use, thirteen years before the
landing of the refugees from Leyden on
Plymouth Rock. Bishop Neely was in
vited to act as chaplain, and in fulfilling
this office, he took a part of the service
used by the Rev. Richard Seymour, the
chaplain of the colony.
—There were 265 confirmations in the
diocese of Maine last year,—an increase
on the year previous.
—A lecture was attempted to be given
by Father Ignatius, at Tottenham-court
road, recently, on he subject of the Re
formation. Father Ignatius said the
" Reformation was a curse :" when such
an uproar occurred that the lecturer was
unable to proceed for a quarter of an
hour. He said he wasit perfect liberty
to express his own opinions. He was an
Englishman, and had as much right to
claim the privileges of the Magna Char
ts as anybody. Martin 'Luther Was a bad
man, and one of his doctrines was that if
an infant was baptised and was not one of
God's elect, and was thrown into a fire,
it would not burn until it had done some
thing to merit daimation. He (Father
Ignatius) was' a persecuted man, and, the
Protestants could not bear to hear him
say a word which they did not preach.
The uproar here became so great that
Father Ignatius was . obliged to retire.
The audience then made a rush upon the
platform, when the gas was turned out,
and the lecture terminated in almost a
riot. Father Ignatius being allowed to
speak for only about half an hour.
—During the past few months Gloria
Dei, or as it is more generally known
" Old Swedes," Church has been under
going a thorough renovation. It is by
many years the oldest place of worship
in this city, having been built in the year
1700, with bricks imported from Sweden
for the purpose. For a long time it was
considered one of the finest buildings in
Pennsylvania, and all strangers coming
to the Colony deemed their visit incom
plete unless this church had been duly
examined and admired. Its pulpit was
regularly supplied with , missionaries sent
over from the Church in Sweden.
Methodist.—The average salaries of
the married men in the Cincinnati Con
ference, exclusive of house-rent, was, the
past year, $906, and of single men 644,
including board.
—At Carlisle, Ind., between three hun
dred and four hundred have been re
ceived into the M. E. Church during the
present year. Nearly all the probationers
are being received into full membership.
—The vote of ten Conferences has
been reported, all going very heavily for
lay delegation. The Conferences, are of
course, entirely made np of ministers.
—Revivals are, :reported in many
churches.in the vicinity of Boston. The
camp-meetings, generally, are regarded
as having been quite successful spirit
ually, ulthoirgh - great c — offifiTaitit - s -- orSab=
bath-breaking and mere pleasure seeking
among visitors are heard, as usual.
—Four hundred students are now
graduating from the twenty colleges under
the charge of the Methodist Episcopal
Church. A great many of these design
to enter the ministry. Also several Me
thodists are graduating from other col
leges who'intend joining the Methodist
Conferences.
—The Centenary Collegiate Institute,
at Hackettstown, N.,J., will have power
to grant degrees to young ladies, while it
will also proVide the usual course of
study for young men.
Baptist.—s3o,ooo have been left to
wards the endowment of a " Female Col
lege" in Thomasville, Ga.—Newton The.
ological Institute has a Junior Class of
fieeen.—Fifty-two Baptist churches in
S. Missouri have but seventeen houses,
thirteen of which are small log houses
and four unfinished frames —At New
Baltimore, N. Y., a candidate was im
mersed in his 87th year. He had been
under conviction seventy years.—The in
vested funds of Brown University, are
s44l,ooo.—Reports of Conferences meet
ing about this time, present, on the whole,
only a moderate degree of encourage
ment.
Revival Items.—The religious inter
est in Washington at the open air meet-
ings of the Y. M. C. A., still continues.
The shower of Divine grace is Mina
upon the lowest and vilest parts of th e e.
city. One rum-seller has given up his
trade, and now exhorts those whom . he
lately tried to ruia. Many young men,
arrested - in the street by- the singing,
have followed the meeting to the rooms
of the Association, and there asked for
prayers and been converted. The revi
val is remarkable, having commenced
among some of the worst classes of the
city, in all the heat of summer, at open
air meetings, held after dark.
—As a result of the three weeks' meet
ing 'held in Lowell in June, nineteen new
members were received to the church
July 25.
—The revival in Richmond, Ind.,
which has been in progress for about six
months, is one of the most remarkable on
record. About nine hundred persons
have been added to the various churches.
Out.door meetings have been held twice
a week, and a noon day saloon prayer
meeting has become nearly a permanent
institution. Sometimes as many as fif
teen prayer-meetings in private houses
have been simultaneously held in differ
ent parts of the city.
~1BCAll&II80u8.- A
Sabbath school
at Winchester,. N. 11., and another at
East Hartford, O. celebrated their
semi-centennials Sept. Ist,
PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1869.
—The Mohegan tribe in Connecticut
number eighty persons.
—Out of a population of some 95,000
persons, in Milwaukie, probably not over
25,000 are Americans. The city is com
pletely under the control of the Germans,
and that means under the control of beer
and rationalism.
—The Independent's opinion of the
comparative value of theology and sci
ence—meaning we suppose natural sci•
ence is given parenthetically, as follows:
" Moreover, if a young man is to devote
himself not to theology, but to science,
(and, generally speaking, the latter is by
far the more useful pursuit) he will still
find," &c. As this language is held in
an editorial reply to a letter from a college
student having the ministry in view,
must it not be construed as a positive
discouragement to the pursuit of the sa
cred profession ; as not only the utter
ance of a theory, but of an ill-concealed
hostility to the ministry ?
—The Young Men's Christian Asso
ciation of New York, one of the largest
and most influential in the country, and
perhaps in the, world, have decided to
open their rooms on - the Sabbath as well
as on week days and to have religious
services there on 'Sabbath evenings. The
fine building of this association ' now
about complete, will cost $4.85,000.
—lt is to the credit of Commodore
Vanderbilt that he had the moral cour
age to choose his partner, not from
among the gay. butterflies which flit
around the charmed circle of fashion at
Saratoga, but a modest and, retiring rady
who, with much intellectual culture, is
endowed in an eminent degree with all
the Christian graces ; one, moreover, as
we are glad to know, wholas always taken
an active part in every : enf,erprise with
in her sphere, designed to advance the
cause of the Master.—Episcopalian.
Romanist.—
Bishop McFarland, of
Hartford, sailed on the Ist instant, to
attend the Ecumenical Council, taking
with him $lO,OOO ¶ for the Pope from his,
diocese. He, received also $5,000 to de
fray his expenses.
—Bishop Lintz, of Austria, who was
lately imprisoned for disobedience of
the laws, is to he made a Cardinal, " in
consideration of the afflictions and suf
ferings which the perverse and anti-re
ligious spirit of our epoch is preparing
for the Church and its servants."
—A new church edifice 60x120 was
dedicated at Jacksonville, 111., Aug. 28.
It seemed necessary to state that " tho
society has a good-repute for sobriety
and morality."
—The New York itemizer of the
Episcopalian commenting on the very
large sum of going from that di
ocese to the Pope (over $40,000) asks :
" What is it, then (to speak plainly), but
downright robbery of the poor Irish
servant girls in New York, to be thus
subtracting so heavy a percentage of
their hareearned wages for the_b_ene ,
of an Italian prince, who - already has
more cash than he can profitably invest?
When the cold weather comes on, be it
borne in mind, it will not be to these
Bishops and Archbishops that the cry
will come up for bread and fuel, but to
the great body of ov:r tax payers=a very
respectable proportion of - iihoirt believe
in neither Pope no POpery:"
Unitarian and Jewish.—A- corres
pondent of the Liberal Christian says that
he does not know a single " popular "
Unitarian minister, nor one who occupies
even a good place, that is living on the
salary paid him by his congregation. In
every case there is an eking out by wri
ting or extra labor of some sort.
—Dr. Osgood in his last letter to the
Evening POst, says : lam surprised to
be assured on high authority that the
press in Austria is very generally in the
hands of the Jews;
and if a paper of
any mark is started there, they are likely
before long to get possession of its col
umns. Two great interests seems to be
largely in their control—money and mu
sic—or the means of living and the art
of cheering life on ; and those who con
trol these powers may largely rule the
press, which is the organ of business
and society."
Jansenist.—T here are, according to
the March Journal, 25 chruthes and 28
clergymen to whom this tide pertains, in
Holland. There is an Archbishop—
Henry Loos of Utrecht, and two Bish
oprics; J. H. DeVries is :General Sec
retary.
—Helmholtz's theory of the sun's heat,
that it is a hot body cooling the heat.
having been produced during the falling
together of its parts when the system
was formed, is now the current one
among astronomers. Its rate of cooling
by radiation is 1° Far. in not more than
4,000 nor less than one year. Chemi
cally it contains iron, sodium, and
silicon, but the peculiarly inflamed
substance is 'hydrogen, as observation!
'oh the corona of flame. diiringln ;eclipse
has shown. This observation was made
last year at Aden, in Arabia by German
savans. The 'heat, radiated out in 81
days would, if transmuted into physical
force, be sufftcent to carry our earth
round her entire orbit. On any possi
ble hypothesis the sun cannot have been
radiating out heat for much more than
100,000,000 years, so that the " geologi
cal ages" of Lyell Darwin &c., are
gross exaggerations:
Emmanuel Ktint; - before he became a
meta Physician, *rote , on physics,. He
grtimtitt.
first pointed out the fact that as the
tide-wave of the sea is held back by the
joint attraction of sun and moon while
the earth rotates under it, it must act
as a friction brake and cause a constant
diminution of the rate of -the - earth's
rotation. Later astronomers acid mathe
maticians confirm this, and have calcu
lated that the loss in a century is 22
seconds. Consequently the earth must
have revolved with greater rapidity in
its earlier periods than at present. Sir
W. Thomson, a Scotch mathematician,.
calculates that,about 100,000;000 years
ago the - rapidity of rotation was about
three per cent greater than at present,
being about the amount necessary' to
cause a fluid mass of the earth's size to
assume, in solidifying, the shape which it
now r bears. But if, as the geologists
assume, it had' been soliit.ten thousand
millions of years ago , when the-rotation
was twice as fast as at present, the shape
assumed' in solidifying at some yet
earlier date would have been quite
different. The enornicuiS 'periods of
some geologists actuallycen trifugal allycarr
yus
force backto
the times when the
must have been great enough to whirl
every loose object on the surface of our
globe out into free space.
These calculations go to overthrow
such speculations as those of Darwin in
his " Origin of Species" in which he
assumes that 300,000,000 years must
have elapsed since the close of the
secondary period, and bids his reader
"close this volume" if "he ,can read
Sift. Chas. Lyell's grand work on the
Principles of Geology, yet does not ad
mit how incomprehensibly vast have
been the past periods of time" disclosed
.by geology.
The rate at which the earth has been
cooling—whether the origin of its heat
hall:men chemical or mechanical--ris,
uniform, such that not more than 98,-
000,000 years ago the heat 'on the sur
face must have • been,- 7,000 Far., a de
gree sufficient to meet\the strongest
rocks. Ten thousand years must have
elapsed before the suiface was cool
enough to permit of 'even vegetable
growth. If the rate is not unifcirm the
rate of cooling has been continually ac
celeiating, and the date.of solidification
is much more recent.
The Geologists are very angry at
Mathematicians and astronomers like
Sir W. Thomson for intruding on their
own field and eiplodiog their theories of
indefinitely protracted ages for the " de
velopment of a species," and the evo
lutioh of the existing order of things.
Huxley almost refuses to listen to them
and addressing his brother geologists
says, " We have exercised a wise dis
crimination in declining to meddle with
our foundations at the bidding of the
first PASSER BY who fancies our house
is not so well built as it might be."
Did ever the most intolerant adherent
of the Mosaic cosmm_onist excel this
i_from a great living geolnist: "I should
certainly net accer , • e • c.
result connected with Geology, and if it
were inconsistent with our mode of
treating our• science, I should not accept
1,000,000,000 nor 100,000,000,000
years nor any limit whatever imposed by
physical science." Contrast with this
Sir W. Thomson's reply : " For myself I
am anxious to be regarded by geologists
not as'a passer-by, but one who is con
stantly interested in their grand subject
and anxious in any way, however slight,
to assist them in their search for truth."
The geologists seem infected with the
worst spirit of a Trade's Union.

his whole capital and attention to the manufac

marked reduction from former rates, and his
Pianos have recently been., awarded, the First

like Mr. Waters; but we happen to know that his
instruments earned him a good reputation long
before Expositions and the " honors" connected.

any manufacturer in the world might well be
