lr. Tyng recently warned Sabbath School
loachcr Against tho round-about way of praying
and teaching! It reminded him of tho Vermont
boy who crooked his gun-barrel to shoot around
a hay-cock. There are too many teachers of tho
"salt and sugar" character afraid of rain, or
cold, or dow. Punctuality was wanted, and a
pcrslstont effort, renewed week by week, for tho
accomplishment of the great purpose Put on
tho harness, and do not fall to Improve every
opportunity for good. In Philadelphia, many
years ago, be found a little girl crying at night,
in the storm, having boon lost on her way to
church. She was cared forj her Christian edu
cation was attended to, and sho became ii) timo
tho wife of a clergyman nnd tho means of the
conversion of many souls, among whom was
tho sou of the speaker, tho late Rev. Dudley A.
Tyng.
Answer to Prayer.
-"''Ask, and ye shall receive." So fully has this
promise been verified to mo in my labors in the
Siiuday-uchool, that I have been led to give some
Ciccount of it, in the hope that some fellow
tcachor, fainting under tho burden of responsi
bility, may bo led to seek raoro earnestly at the
throne of grace for Divine strength and guidance
In this great work, may bo encouraged, cheered,
nnd stimulated in this labor of love.
Mlno was a class of boys, ranging in their
ages from eight to twelve bright, active, rest
less spirits. I realized fully all tho qualities
eafential to their judicious moral and religious
training, and how unequal I was to the task. I
had no love for the work; only a fearful sense
Of duty and responsibility. It was a burden
under which I was well nigh sinking, uatil I
was led by the spirit to cry earnestly to God for
Strength in my great weakness, for wisdom for a
Spirit of love and patience, for earnestness, and
laith, everything which I needed to fit mo for
the training of immortal souls.
I bore each precious ono by name to tho
throne of grace, asking of my Heavenly Father
gifts for each, according to his needs. He gra
ciously hc&rd and answered my petitions. There
was a marked change in the spirit of the class.
Tho very things I asked for each one individu
ally seemed granted, while He graciously filled
my own soul with such a love for the work, such
a tendor, earnest, loving Interest in each one,
that what had been a burden became a joy and
delight. And I rejoice in the assurance that Ho
will continue to hear my prayer, and that tho
Becd sown in these young hearts will spring up
and bear fruit to eternal life.
O, why are we so backward in coming to
fiod, when we have the full assurance in His
blessed Word that he is only waiting to be in
quired of, to pour us out a blessing. Fellow-
teacher, plead His precious promises in faith,
and you will receive the blessing; plead with
God till you have tho spirit of your blessed Mas
ter in this great work of saving souls; plead
earnestly till each precious soul committed to
your charge Is gathered into the Saviour's fold.J

We learn from the New York Observer that
the Ueneral Assembly of the Cumberland l'res
byterian Church, met at Murfreesboro. Tenn..
May 20. This Church is, next to the Old aud
the New School, the largest body of Presbyte
rians in mo country ana was the only branch
that wag not divided geographically by the war.
In 1810 their first Presbytery of three ministers
was organized in Middle Tennessee. They nuui-
oer am oraainea ministers, ana over luu.uou
members, i (synods, and about w Presbyteries,
The Assembly expressed the conviction, that It
wouia not ne tor the best interest 01 tho Church
for the ministers of two races to meet in the
same judicatories, and recommended the forma- I
tlon of Presbyteries of colored ministers, and
the establishment of a theological seminary for
colored students.
The pastoral relation of Dr. Eells with the
First Presbyterian Church of San Francisco was
dissolved by Presbytery ou the 1st instant, his
people having reluctantly consented to the same
at a very full meeting of the church and con
gregation on the evening previous. The Pres
byterian Church at Oakland, California, and the
Second Presbyterian Church of Cleveland, which
Dr. Eells served with much acceptance in years
gone, were applicants for his services. Deciding
in favor of the latter, he was duly dismissed ac
cordingly, to take effect July 1.
The United Presbyterians' report this year
Sshows a membership of 65,624, which one autho-
represents It as a email gain. There are 505
ministers, of whom 401 are In sen Ice, 72tj con
gregations, churches organized or received
and 14 or dismissed or dissolved. 507

lars. J! or home missions the appropriations for
next year are $31,400, for frcedmen's missions
3il2,200, for foreign missions 470,000. There
are 74 students in 5 theological seminaries. The
!total salaries of pastors and stated supplies were
p388,278; congregational expenses, $241,983;
timount contributed to church funds, $114,(555;
general contributions, $73,725; total contribu
tions, $818,641; average per member, $11-38;
legacies received by the boards, $31)13; average
ialary of pastors, $823.
The Scotch Presbyterian Assemblies re
cently closed their annual meetings. A corres
pondent of the New York Observer writes thus:
The Free Church still stands at the head of
hese denominations in respect to liberty.
Though its memjj.s are by no means rich, they
liave raised for religious purposes the large sum
i 420,000. Next to it, in this connection, is
the United Presbyterian Church, whose income
his year is i'318,000: while, last of all. comes
he Established Church, whose voluntary con-
ributions amount to only 153,000. It is somo
hlng to say of a small and poor country like
Scotland, that it gives well on to a million a
ear tor the cause of Christ: but it Is a significant
Ircumstanco that the church in it which gives
east for missions, etc.. Is the church whoso
uinlsters are supported by the State. There is
ieany sucn a uung as an education in the
mblt of giving as well as in every other good
hlng, and it Is evident under the shadow of an
stublishmcnt that the habit does not find free
cope for exercise."- The meetings were har
monious, and there were indications that seem
o promise an ultimate union of the various
'ranches of the Presbyterian Church in Scotland.

The new Baptist church on Warburton and
Ashburton avenues, Yonkers, New York, was
dedicated on Sunday last, It has been erected
as a present to the congregation by the well
known bankers In Wall street, John B. Trevor
and James B. Colgate, who have their residences

brown freestone from Belleville, New Jersey,
and is a very beautiful building, 5J0 feet frout

The roof is covered with slate. The cost of the
building Is about yoo,UOO, being defrayed, as

At the anniversary meeting of tho English
Primitive Methodists, held In Mr. Spurgeon's
Tabernacle, London, May 11, tho Immense au
dience were surprised and enraptured by the
eloquence of a now orator. Rev. VV. Jones, of
Birmingham
who is tnirty-tour years old.
The Uev
ev. h,. li. Keyes, a prominent tierman
of the New York Methodist Conference, having
renounced the doctrine of that Church, addressed
an immense audience in the Swedenborgian
church In Poughkeepsio rccontly, explaining the
cause of his conversion to the latter Church.
His course has created a profound sensation.
The Primitive Methodist organization of
Great Britain is only 59 years old; yet they have
8500 chapels, and at least 400,000 church ineiu
bers and Sunday School teachers.
The Methodists have a gift for doing the
Lord's work on business principles, and making
money out ot it, that is unsurpassed. 1 hey have
bought a splendid building on Broadway for
their book concern ana lor connectionai pur-
Eoses, and now they are in the market to sell
alf a million dollars of coupon bonds, bearing
seven per cent, interest, which they propose to
sen in oruer to pay lor part oi tho building.
Whether tho Missionary Board will do tho samo.
or will trust to the gifts of the churches, we have
oi learned. jnaepe-ndeni.
The Wesletan Methodist corrects the state
anent that the Wesleyan Church in Seneca Fulls

year xim.va ior mission purposes, an average
of over $150 (currency) each. Our Methodists

a case ot interference with religious con
victions occurred the other day in Buffalo, which
came very near termiuating like the sad Mary
Ann Smith case. A young woman, named Ellen

CONGREGATIONAL.

eleven members, i ne whole number or mem

There Is a great desire on the part of many

Tho Methodist vote on lay delegation Is
slowly progressing. It promises to be very light,
und tho peoiilo are certainly but little stirred
upon the subject. Thus far the vote stands
about three or lour to one in favor of lay dele
gation. We notice that some of tho strongest
votes lor the measure como lrom tho Southern
border, where tho Influence of tho Southern
Mcthodlnts Is felt, who have already adopt id
the plan. A cVurch in New Orleans stand 50

Kev. Charles K.Cheney, of Chic igo, who Is to

of omitting tho words "regenerate, etc.," from
tho olllco for the baptism of Infants, has been
Informed by Bishop Whitehouse that none ot
the signers ot the late protest against Ritualism
nnd lligh Church notions will bo allowe I ti sit

Iho following remarks aro timely: Tho
Protestant ' L'hvrehnmn suvs that "in some of
our 'fashionable congregations a man without
kid gloves Is as much out of place as h'j would
be at an aristocratic wedding party in cowhide
boots. And it Is because tl)C3' feel that tiioy

the poor often stay away from church." To
which the Auvnuee replies: "irue, but where
there is ono such church as this, tliero are ton
which comfortably shelter themselves agairiHt
such a strong indictment, yet keep the poor
away for all that! They leave their kid gloves

The Rov. Dr. Pendleton, In a letter to the
Southern Churchman, reports a very extensive
religious interest in tho Military Academy at
Lexington, Virginia. On Whitsunday ho pre
sented sixty-six candidates to Bishop Whittle for
confirmation, of which number "four were
young ladies, two distinguished professors of
the college nnd institute, lour assistant profes
sors In the institute, and forty-eight cadets."
The last suit against tho iriuity Church
corporation, New York, is based on the ground
that it has lorieited its rights to its lands, be
cause it has ceased to bo 'Protestant Episcopal,"
its rector having loined Dr. Ewer In calling Pro
testantism a failure: and also because the corpo
ration will give no account of its funds, and per
verts them to tho destruction of morals by leas
ing Its property to thoso who keep houses of
lu-iame.

QUAKER.
The modified character of modern Quaker
ism, by which it is assimilating itself in spirit
ana worK witu otnor Christian bodies, is seen In
tho lssueot tue Monmly liecord, an English jour
nal devoted to tho home and foreign missions of
tho Friends. An account Is given of numerous
breakfast meetings held last winter in Loudon,
soma attended by 1000 men and others by as
many women, and addressed mainly hy Quakers
and Quakeresses; but "several of different de
nominations have, under the restraining in
fluence of tho love of Christ, at times vocally
taken a part in tho religious meetings." On
ono occasion "two clever men of tho press were
present to produce a satirical article for their
newspaper; but the Word of the Lord came with
such power to them both that their evil purpose
was lorgottcn, and both are now zealously labor
ing to build up the faith they once sought to
destroy." Mention is made of half a dozen mis
sionaries now in Madagascar. A similar move
ment is going on lu this country, especially in
the West; and a new life is being infused into a
body winch seemed siowiy disintegrating. 1 ho
remarkable revival in Richmond, Ind., In which
the Friends have taken so active a part, is an
example in point.

The Moravians oi the world are all con

Antigua, Jamaica, Greenland, and Labrador.
The election of President brings out one of their
peculiar notions. On the first ballot Bishop

Reichcl received 34 votes; but also requested
that the lot be used, which was in the negative..
On the third ballot Rev. Levin T. Reichel re

ever witnessed in Kildare, Ireland. It was the
