the Ottawa Presbytery, in order that he
t ai:rht take charge.of a missionary enter
prise at Ravenswood, near Chicago.
—Rev. L. B. Wilson has resigned the
pnstoral charge of the Presbyterian
c hurch at Youngstown, Ohio. He was
iuuutalled ten . years since. The church
then had a membership of 150, which is
nOW doubled
—ln Brooklyn, the congregation of
Reformed Presbyterians, (O. S.), under
the pastoral charge of Rev. John H
Boggs, have erected a neat brick chape
on the corner of Lafayette avenue and
Ryerson street, which was lately opened
f o r divine service. The building cost

Episcopalian.—The trustees of the
General 'lheological Seminary have ap
pointed to the professorship of Systematic
Divinity the Rev. Milo 'Mahan, D. D.,
of Baltimore; Rev. John i Murray Forbes,
D. D., was chosen dean:
—Rev. Dr. Tyng, of New York, thinks
there are insuperable difficulties in the
way of making at present any revision of
the Episcopal Prayer Book, but thinks
the time is near when there will he an
entire reconstruction of the ecclesiastical
system of the Episcopal church.
—Rev. Henry Niles Pierce, D. D.,
1 tte of Mobile, Ala., has been elected
Missionary Bishop of the Southwest by
the Rouse of Bishops, New York.
—Rev. W. B. Becline'J resignation of
the rectorship of the Memorial church,
Baltimore, Md , has been accepted.
—Prof. W. W. Folwell, late Professor
in Kenyon College, Ohio, Lind a graduate
of Hobart College, New York, has been
elected President of the. University of
Minnesota.
—"lt is said" that the Diocese of
Exeter will refuse to accept Dr. Temple,
the Queen's nominee for the succession
to Dr. Philpotts. The valiant clergy who
are proposing that feat would be very
happy, no doubt, to combine the incom
patible luxuries of Establishment and
Freedom, doing as they please and hav
ing the munificent patronage of the State.
But the attempted veto of Dr. Hamp
den's nomination to tle See of Hereford
must have been forgotten by them.
There was a loud talk of duty, with a
martyr like disregard of temporal conse
quences. Unfortunately for these heroic
talkers, when* the,day came the men were
not found who were willing to hazard the
penalties of the statute in that case pro
vided. "The pains'and penalties of a
prientunire" would not be literally in
flicted, we may presume,hut the conse
quences of insubordination, even as mi
tigitted by the spirit of the age, were too
serious for them to face.—Eca miner and
Chronicle.
—The corner-stone of a convent for
the Protestant Episcopal Sisters of Mer
cy in Eighty-fifth St., N. Y., was laid re
cently by Bishop Potter.
—Bishop , Ooze, of Western New
York, now in Europe; has written a let
ter to the Pope. It is in Italian, and
appears in the Enzancipatore Cattolica.
of Naples.
—Rev. Dr. Newton, of Philadelphia,
was lately invited. to preach to the child
ren and adults of the various Evangeli
cal Sabbath schools of Woburn, Massq
and—that they might all have room to
hear him—the invitation was to the spa
cious church edifice belonging to the
Orthodox Congregational church, one of
the largest and finest in the Common
wealth. The rector of the little Episco
pal church, in which one-tenth as many
persons might possibly be seated, ad
dressed the doctor a note, offering to him,
for his service, the use of his own house,
but i)eremptorily forbidding him, by the
Canons, from preaching elsewhere with
in the limits of his parish. Astonishing
to relate, however, Dr. Newton preached
as he had been,requested to do. Whether
there will belt trial, therefor, remains
to be seen.—Congregationalist.
— Rev. Dr. Alexander Vinton, of St.
Mark's church, who declined a call from
the Church of Emmanuel in. Boston, last
spring, has accepted a• renewed call to
that church.
—lt is the custom now, for many
among the congregation of Trinity
church, New York, to bow to the chan
cel when entering the church and ,to
cross themselves when they ri'e from
their knees in their pews.
—Ohio papers announce that the Rev.
James Kent Stone, D. D., lately Presi
dent of Kenyon College, and afterwards

—The _lndependent says: In one of his
late sermons, the rector of St. Alban's
church, N. Y. affirmed that the Episco
palian and : Romanoman Catholic belief is
positively alike, although the members
do not commune together, owing to in
trigues of the Court of Rome at the time
of the Reformation. The preacher boldly
asserted that the churches referred to
are but actually one, and that the mem
bers are all Roman Catholics; and
hoped to see the day when both shourd
be united under the latter name and unite
in communion.
—Rev. William Walton, D. D., Pro
fessor of'Hebrew in the General Theolo
gical Seminary, in the city of New York,
died in that city on-Tuesday, September
21st, in the 59th year of his age. He
was the eldest'son of the late Rear Ad
miral Walton, of the British Navy. .
—Bishop Randall has taken parochial
charge of St. John's, in Denver, and has,
also become Principal of the "Young
Ladies' Seminary."
—lt is stated that sometimes persons
are elected vestrymen in this Church
who are not religious in the strictest
sense of that word. But the Diocese of
Tennessee not only requires all vestry.
men to be members of the Church, but
all those who vote for vestrymen also.
—For two years the Episcopalians
have maintained a missionary church in
Salt Lake City, of fifty members, under
the rectorship of Rev. Mr. Foot. He is
assisted by the chaplain at Camp Doug.

Josephites hold their worship.

sociation has twice rejected (last year
