welling of the knee, which used to be
the " housemaid's knee;" is now

—The Louisiana Baptist says: "At
the Sandy Creek Association .mention
was made of a church ingather - who
could not attend the session -because - be
was making a run of whiskey from his

his three drinks a day, Communion is

rho movement in their favor is becom
ing quite remarkable. At the late
meeting fur Home Missions in Rhenish
Prussia, held at Bonn, several pastors
uho had at first opposed , Sunday-schools,
how spoke in their favor, having seen
them tried in their own parishes. The
s)stem was approved without a dissent
i rig voice. One of the most decided ad
ucates of the American system, as it is
called, was Professor Lange, the famous
Bible commentator.
—The Indiana Latherans have united
in the formation of a " Central Synod."
They have adopted the Augsburg Con
fession and Luther's Smaller Catechism
ai their articles of faith, but have " Re-
Pilved, That as the Reformers in the for
mation of said Confession, intended to pre
sent the pure teachings. of God's Word;
therefore it is subordinate to God's
l'urd, and is only justly interpreted,
when explained by the infallible teach
tugs of Christ and His Apostles."

Home at Germantown, had receipts of

Romanist,—A dire Itory of the Ger
man Catholics in this country, by E. A.
Reiter, a Jesuit, of Boston, says there
are in the United States 1160 German
Catholic priests. 705 German Catholic
parishes, and a German Catholic popu
lation of 1.044,000 souls. If the aver
age population of the non German
Catholic parishes is about equal to that
of the German, the total Catholic popula
tion of the United 'States would amount
to 3,350,000 inhabitants. A church
built by the German Catholics at a cost
of $lOO,OOO, is in process of erection at
St. Paul Minn.
—The London Times says.: " Things
at Rome are auguring ill for the Coun
cil. Gallicanism is rampant. The Aus
trian and German Bishops demur to the
dogma of the personal infallibility, and
discord is apprehended among the Ital
ians. Antonelli shakes his head at a
performance in which he never felt
sympathy. It will be
,sometime before
it can become clear Filether the Council
will bring the Church peace or sword."
—Edith O'Gorman, an- escaped nun,
has created considerable exbitement in
New Jersey by her rerelations , of con
vent life,' especially in relatiih tb the
cruelties, and ignorance in conyent
schools and the liasons of the priests
ml 4 Sisters. She herself was ; li i rugge!l

—Victor Emanuel seems to have
pulled through his recent severe illness
without makipg- any con,cession to, the_
Ptafte.:; js under Axpmwmpirliiiptr,;,
and no priest has any right to adminis
ter the last, !sacraments -to, him, until he
formally retracts Whatever he has done
against the church, and " makes up"
with it. The sick king sent for a priest,
who was instructed by the Archbishop
of Pisa to demand such action on the
monarch's part, before giving him ex
treme unction. But Victor Emanuel
Would do no such thing and got his
unction without it—for which the poor
priest will probably ,suffer,
—ln ttie pr'obable elevation of Sir
John 'Lincoln, M. P. for the Isle of

Guardian notices the fact that it will
be the first time since the Reformation
that an Etiglish Roman Catholic Ins
been milled to the Upper House. Peer
ages have been called out of abeyance
in favor of Roman Catholics, as was
done in the case of the Baronies of
Canroys and Beaumont, but there has
been no new creation of a Roman Catho

go put their admission fee at ten dollars

—The " Liberal": ministry do not
sustain Brother Frothingham. Dr. Con

-14 r. F. R Abbot, who recently
achieved some notoriety by renouncing
,the title and position of a Christian min
ister, has removed _ to Toledo, Ohio,
where he proposes to publish The index,
a weekly paper akin in spirit to The
(Boston) Radical, to contain the dis
courses of the editor and other contri
butions. It will pay no deference to
the authority of the Bible, the Church,
or the Christ, but rest so!ely "on the all
thority of right reason and od eon
science."
—Rev. " Adirondscks" Murray, of
Boston, said a good word for what he
called"! Evangelical Unitarians," a few
weeks 'ago; and prophesied their union
with Liberal Evangelicals. The Liberal
Christian holds out little hope of the
marriage. Barkis is not " willin' ." It
says :—" We do not happen to know of
any. U nitarians r who are,willing to abate
one jot or tittle-from their distinctive
principles for the,aake,oflany union that

J e wish,—The Jewish Messenger can
not understsuad how ,intelligent. Chris.
thins can think that Judaism is becoming
weak, and is in danger of extin,ction.
It may be owing to the fact," it. says,
" that one or two. Jewish ministers have
been holding forth inUnitarian pulpits,
and that there are several Jewish minis
ters who are tinctured with the spirit.of
the age, and do not believe in the ad
vent of a Messiah, in the resurrection of
the dead, in the ingathering of Israel,
and their restoration to the promised
land. Judaism, it declares, is no.w as
strong and as vigorous as at any time in
its history. None of its fundamental
principles have„laeen given up, and the
true Israelite still looks for the literal
fulfilment of the promises in the Jewish
Scriptures."
—The Messenger rejoices at, a vote of
the New York Board of Education, by
which children who are absent 'frouvre
ligious observances are not required to

says that the people have been reduced
to a temporal bondage by the power of
Brigham Young, and that the spiritual
ism of Mormonism has died out of the
church. The reformers propose to re
vive those spiritual doctrines. They war
against Brigham Young's policy, but not
against himself. •
—Female missionaries from Utah are
investing lowa, trying to convince the
fair lowans that polygamy is a big thing.
The lowans think it too big.
—Gen. Burton, who commands the
Mormon army, admits the gathering of
several thousand soldiers in camp near
Salt Lake. He denies, however, that
the object of gathering the troops is an
aggressive one, being intended only for
the home defence of their government.

Our friends will find at Mr. Waters'.store the

MUSICAL Do'Nus.—Sinoe Mr. Horace Waters
give up publishing sheet music he his devoted
his • whule capital and attention to the manufac
ture and sale of Piands and Melodeons. He has
just issued a catalogue of his new instruments,
giving anew scale of prices, which shows
marked reduction from former rates, and his
Pianos have recently hemi awarded the First
Preiltuni at several Fairs. Many people of the
present day, who are attracted, if not confused,
with the flaming advertisements of rival piano
houses, probably overlook a modest manufacturer
like Mr. Waters; but we happen to know that his
instruments earned him a good reputation long
before Expositions and the "honors" connected
therewith were ever tholight of; indeed, we have
one of Mr. Waters' piano fortes now in our resi
dence (where it has ;stood fur years,) of which
any manufacturer in the world might well be
proud. We have always been delighted with it
as a sweet-toned and powerful instrument, and
there is no doubt of its durability; more than
this, some of the best amateur players in the
city, as several celebrated pianists, have perform
ed in the said piano, and all pronounced it a su
perior and fret class instrument. Stronger indorse
ment we could not give,—[Home Journal.
