Rev. Robert C. Alison was installed pastor of the Port Penn church, New c a stle county, Del., on Thursday even ing, October 28th. He was cordially welcomed by that small but interesting church. May the great Head of the Church bless and long continue the union effected under such favorable auspices. At the services connected with the in stallation, Rev.

Dr. Osgood (Unitarian) to preach in the chapel on a Sunday evening when no other service had been provided. It al leges that the Unitarians gave liberally for the erection of the chapel, and ,that this arbitrary ruling is not liked by them, nor by a good many orthodox people. It now appears that the arrange went was made fur Dr. Osgood to oc cupy the pulpit, without Dr. Robinson's assent or consent, by irresponsible par ties, and that he interfered on this ac count, as he would have done had Dr. Osgood been an orthodox Presbyterian. The Independent tries to bluster out of the matter. =Rev. W. Alexander, of Beloit, Wis , accepts a call to San Joso (Cal.) church, which Rev. J. W. Hough, of Jackson, declined. —Rev. W. E.

He has since accepted it, and the Presbytery of Utica meets to morrow, sth) to act upon the joint request of the pastor and people of the church at Rome, for dissolving the relation which has ex isted between them nearly twenty-two years. Churches,—The Presbyterian church of Coldwater, Mich., was dedicated on Tuesday, October 12th. The audience room is 60 x 90 feet, and 30 feet high. It contains 135 seats, and will accommo date about 700 persons. It is lighted froni above by three of ,Frink's Patent Reflectors. The walls are very beauti fullly and tastefully frescoed. The whole expense when complete will be $32,000. The church was organized September 30th, 1837', with a membership of eigh teen members.• From that time to the present there have been 610 in connec tion with the church.

Church Courts.—The Synod of In diana Suet at Aurora, Ind., Oct. 14th. The resolution of the Synod of Genesee in regard to reporting" Solid Columns" in the Reunion year, was adopted, and it was also "Resolved, Thal Synod express es its desire that the boundaries of the Indiana Synod of the united Church conform, as nearly as may be, to its pres ent boundaries." A memorial to the Assembly says : " Since God in his provi dence, by the rapid development of rail roads in the West and the increasing tide of immigration, is just at this junc ture making upon the churches so soon to be reunited a special call to enlarged activity, requiring at once a largely aug mented liberality; therefore, the Synod of Indiana overtures the Assembly to devise a plan which shall signalize the Reunion year by the immediate raising of such a fund as the. crisis demands." The presentation of the causes of the Church brought forward missionaries Bushnell and Hastings, and the Synod of Wabash was represented by Rev. Ch'as. IL Johnston, who kept at Aurora his 71st birthday, in preference to remain ing at Crawfordsville to receive tokens of affectionate regard. A pastoral letter, composed by ,Rev. Thos. S. Milligan, on " Family Worship," was read, and will be printed. and circulated among the families. Strong temperate resolutions, were passed. —The Synod of Illinois met in the First Church of Alton, Oct. 6th. The Committee on Bills and Overtures re-. 11 ported an overture relating to the revi val of The Presbytery Reporter, and the following resolution was adopted : " Re- 1 , solved., That we approve, of the plan sug-, gested by the editor, and hereby pledge ourselves to secure for it as wide a circu lation as possible among our vbrion3 con gregations." Rev. ,J. W. Bailey, D.D., of Blackburn University, addressed the Synod in behalf of that institution. Mr. W. F. Mitchell, Agent for the Freed men's Department 'of the Committee on Home Missions, was heard with marked interest. A communication was received from the Presbytery of Bloomington (0. S.) in relation to the readjustment of the boundaries of Synods and Presbyteries, which was referred.to a committee, who subsequently reported. In accordance with its recommendations, a .delegation was appointed to present our action to the 0 S. Synod of Illinois, and invite them them to appoint their annual meet ing at Jacksonville, in conjunction with this Synod, also four pastors were, ap pointed a Committee of Conference with the 0. S. Synod. —The Synod of Ohio closed a delight ful session in Granville, Oct. iSth. Its devotional. services were throughout hallowed seasons ; the preaching, mis sionary and other addressek were iblical and stirring; the business showed wise counsel in kind words and short speeches. It adopted an able paper on the Sabbath; sanctioned the doings of the Commission of last year, in disposing of the Herald, thanked the editor for his fidelity, and , recommended the, united paper to the patronage of the churches, also, our Church benevolent enterprises ; and as some congregations have been delinquent in their free-will of crin,gs to the cause of Church Erection, Tublication, Minis terial Relief and of the Freedmen, these were specially commended to their prat. tical regard. —The Synod of New York and New Jersey, met at Poughkeepsie, Oct. 19th. The attendance was not as large as usual, many of the oldest and best known pastors being absent. The report frorri the Presbyteries on the questions sent down by the Assembly reap cling clergy men who are not engaged in the work of the ministry, and also of those who absent themselves from ecclesiastical meetings, elicited considerable discus sion; and it was finally; by motion of Dr. Adams, made the imperative' . duty of Presbyteries to hear and decide upon the reasons assigned by 'these parties, and record the same Rev. Mr. Re IL• dall, of the Madura Mission, addressed the Synod in behalf of Foreign Missions, showing the progress of the Gospel on his field of labor, and the great encour agements for vigorously prosecuting the work. The subject of Sabbath Desecra as introduced by a communication from the Congregational Conference of Ohio, and the address of Mr. Bishop, of the New York Sabbath Committee, who urged the co-operation of all good citi zens in maintaining the existing statute laws on the Sabbath, elicited an interest . - ing and profitable discussion, and em phatic resolutions. By invitation the Synod visited Vassar College, and after being shown through the Institution, listened to addresses by President Ray mond, Drs. Adams and Cox, and the Moderator of the Synod. The Narra tive mentioned—among the causes of gratitude the establishment of a German Theological Seminary' in. Newark; the reception of the Presbytery of South Carcilinti, composed' of Freedmen; the building of' new churches, and the re moval of church debts, and especially the plan inaugurated by the churches of the city of Newark, to establish a com mon treasury for this purpose; and the increase of benevolence in the churches, one third more having been contributed to the several causes than the previous year. The spiritual prosperity of the churches• was represented as not as gen eral as in former years. The ,Presbytery of Galena and Bel videre installed,' Oct: 20th, Rev. W. S. Curtis, D.

Some say, " they lose money by it," - but how a house can keep losing mo ney right along, and not fail, or what can be the object of losing money, they do not explain. Others say, " they do not half pay their hands," whereas it is no torious that no employees in that line of business, are so well paid and so well sat isfied, as are those of Wanamaker. & Brown, and it must be clear to all, that while the demand for good work is so great as it now is, it would be.impossible for W. & B. to command the services of a thousand of the best tailoi's at inferior prices. And one man was heard to 'as sert very confi3ently, 'the other day, that "they must steal them." But whattver may the explanation' t ' the one thin.. to •be' learned by all is, thas by universal con slut, Wanamaker &Brown do sell cheap er than any other house seems to be able to.

STORY IN A NUTSHELL. The office of the stomach is to convert the food into a cream-like semi-fluid, called CarmS. This is effected partly by the action of a solvent, called' the gastric juice, which exudes from the coating of the stomach, and partly by a mechanical movement of that organ, which 'urns, as it were, the dissolving. aliment. The, orals passes from the stomach into the duodenum, or entrance to the bowels, where it is subjected to the ac tion of the bile, and the nutritious portion Of it convert ed into a fluid called Chyle, which eventually becomes blood. • •- • • Now, it is evident that if the great solvent, the gas tric juice, is not produced in sufficient quantity, or if the mechanical action'of the stomach is not sufficiently brisk, thefts/ process qf digestion will be but imper fectly performed. It is else clear that if the liver, which plays such an important part in changing the nourish ing portion of the chyme into the material of the blood, is congested, or in any unnatural condition, the second proms will not be thoroughly accomplished. The re sult of the two fa ores is dyspepsia, complicated with biliousness. The mode in which HOSTETTER'S BITTERS operate in such cases as this : they invivrate the cellular mem brane of the stomach, which evolves, the gastric juice, thereby insuring an ample sufficiency' of the fluid to completely dissolve the food. TheY'alao act upon the nerves of the stomach; causing an acceleration of the Mechanical movement necessary to reduce the food to a homogeneous mass. They also act specifically upon the liver, strengthening it, and, so enabling it to, pro-, duce an ample and regular supply'of bile, for the pur pose of converting the nutritious particles of the Chyme into Chyte, and promote the passage through the bowels of the useless debris. In this way HOSTETTER'S BITTERS cure dyspepsia and liver complaint: The explanation is plain, simple, philosopnical; and true. 1 • STADIMERING'C'IIRED • PROF. M. F.
