Chrl.tliin. In Turkey.
TUB SECTS.
It iu painful to have tho cherished fancies of
life-time dispelled by contact with stern
facts. We had indulged the hope that the East
ern Ch.rchos were in reality better than repre
sented; that, to say the least, the Christian com
munities were greatly superior to their infidel
neighbors. In some respects they unquestiona
bly are. The Christians aro much shrewder as
a class are more intelligent, better educated,
nd, as a consequence, more thrifty. They aro
much belter tradesmen than the Turks, and are
increasing rapidly in wealth; whllo the Turk,
with all tho superiority of his political position,
Is growing poorer and poorer. But in respect
to real morality, to say nothing of a genuine and
spiritual religion, the native Christians cad
hardly be Judged too severely. Said a candid
Bulgarian merchant to one of our missionaries:
"We cannot become Protestants," you aro so
Strict; in this country we must lie and cheat, to
do business." Tho pompous ceremonies and tho
gaudy decorations of tho churches, with their
images and pictures, together with tho corrupt
practices of many even of tho higher clergy,
produce anything but a favorable impression
of Christianity upon the minds of the Moham
medans, whllo the mutual distrust and enmity of
tho different sects arei perpetual scandal. Much
tho larger portion of the Christian subjects of
the Sultan are attached to the Greek Church,
and arc under tho ecclesiastical jurisdiction of
tho Patriarch of Constantinople. The clergy of
this Church combine ignorance and bigotry to a
degree which hardly admits of rivalry. The
Armenians aro a considerable element, aud aro
possessed of some intelligence and wealth.
Many of them are engaged in commerce in the
large towns of Asia Minor and European Tur-

COuo of the many anomalies which impress a

llglous communities to tho Turkish Government.
Every subject of the empire is assumed to have
some form of religious faith. If a non-Mussul
man, he must be connected witn some religious
organization. The Greeks, the Armenians, the
Jews, etc., as great religious bodies, have their
duly authorized and recognized representatives,
With whom alono the Government deals. If a
private individual has a grievance, he must
apply for redress through his priest or bishop.
The prelates are thercfere not only religious,
but, to some extent, civil functionaries. This,
of course, greatly Increases their Influence in
their own communities, as the people are so do
pendent upon them. The position of a Pro
testant was formerly very embarrassing. Not
claiming conneetlon with either of the recog
nized sects, his relation to the Government was
anomalous, and often annoying. As a remedy
for this, several years ago, at tho instance of
Lord Stratford do Raiclifle, British ambassador,
the twelve or fifteen thousand Protestants were
constituted a distinct community, and thus enti
tled to a legal representation. This arrange
ment is not wholly satisfactory, and some Pro
testants prefer tho Inconveniences of non-representation
to an enrolment in this form.

SUMMARY OF CHURCH NEWS.
BAPTIST.
The Rochester Theological Seminary begins
this year with fifty students, and more arc ex
pected. The Baptist Theological Seminary of Chi
cago is trying to raise $00,000 to purchase the
library of the late Dr. Hengstenberg.

it is reported tiat itev. uonn u. cmtueriana,
n evansrelist laboring in the Mountain Assocla-
ions of Kentucky, has baptized 578 into the fel-
owshiit of the churches in one year.
Some writers, referring to tho statement that
"of the 847 Baptist churches in Georgia, only 28
have preaching every Sunday," adds, "I presume
there arc not over 15 in Alabama, which have a
weekly service."
Tho prejudice In England against clerical
celibacy is so great that the proposals in favor
of sending out unmarried missionaries, made
last May, by Dr. Landels, and by some of the
managers of the Baptist Missionary Society, aro
almost universally repudiated by the denomina
tion. As a consequence, ono or the secretaries,
Mr. Trestrail, resigns his post.
The Christian Index publishes a note from
a missionary among the Choctaws, which says:
"According to recent statistics there are thirteen
Baptist cLurchcs, and four hundred and sixty
seven members, in the Choctaw Nation; four na
tive ordained (one died recently) and three na
tive unordained preachers, and two white mis
sionaries. Population of Choctaw Nation over
5,000; area, 15,000 square miles, I suppose."

A young student of Harvard uivinityacnool,
who had previously been a Methodist, says of
tho students whom he meets tnere:-r-"i Deiieve

opal Conveutiona have met tho pust week. Tho
latter was occupied mainly In discussing church
extension, and in providing for tho support of
tho bishop. In the former the question of di
viding the diocese fund with the new dioceses
was uiscusacd and decided In the negative. In
his address. Bishon Potter congratulated tho
Episcopal clergy on never having preached uoll-
tics; and expressed a hope that some day a good
religious paper might bo startod.
mo editor ot tho Uhlcngo Vhurcnman Anns
scarcely anything but Episcopalians on his
trnvels in the extremo West. Ho says: "In
Dakotah there arc' only two other Protestant
services besides our own In tho wholo territory !
In Yankton, a town of fifteen hundred people,
Dr. Hoyt, our missionary 'tho picket guard' of
tho Church has tho only religious worship in
the place 1 Everywhere throughout tho juris
diction tho Church clergyman is tho pionoer.
We have beaten our Methodist brethren out of
sight, and havo generally run ahead of tho Je
suits." It must be that tho Congregational
church founded by Rev. E. W. Cook, aud over
which Rev. Joseph Ward was ordaiued a year
ago, has suddenly collapsed. Wo had supposed
it to be trowing finely. Independent.
Dr. 8. II. Tyng hits written a letter to Drs.
Muhlenberg, J. Cotton Smith. Newton, and the
remaining committee of Low Churchmen on tho
subject of revision of tho Prayer Book, decidedly
deprecating tho project and refusing to aid in it.
His idea is that revision must either bo limited
to a few verbal changes and alternate forms, or
else be so comprehensive as practically to give a
new prayer book. If the first plan bo agreed on.
It could not pass tho General Convention, and
its adoption by any minister would render him
liable to all the ecclesiastical censure that would
follow a more radical course Besides, such a
partial revision would bo in the way of anything
more complete, and would not facilitate any
subsequent mevement towards separation. Tho
alternative of a thorough revision would, he
thinks, be premature, and to be attempted only
when the body for which it is designed has been
formed. Ho says:
"Much as I have shrunk from such a pros
pect, I cannot resist the conviction that wo are
fast tending to an entire reconstruction of our
ecclesiastical system. Tho avulsive action in
our Church manifestly increases continually,
both among the laity and clergy. I look for
ward to the general meetings of this autumn as
an occasion at which we shall probably settle
finally great principles of contest and action
cither resulting in our separation or our submis
sionbeyond which, for the present at least, we
shall have no more discussion. That our brethren
will much longer bear the inroads of bold op
pression, bolder heresy, i.i in my judgment not
to bo anticipated, or perhaps desired. I havo
no fears of the issue of such a movement, if it
shall be conducted with calmness and detcrmi
nation. I cannot say I am without desire to sec
it successiuiiy eitected; though I should much
more desire to see the Church as it now stands
prove faithful to the truth of God and to the
liberty of Christ."

St. Andrew's Church, of this city (Rev. Dr.

twenty-eight years; and Charles A. Lord, its
present editor, Is now entering upon his four

Oberliu Seminary has been languid for sev
eral years. Professor Finney saw his best days
thirty years ago then he was a light. His in
fluence was vast. But in common with all men
of ono idea, or of extreme views, he has suc
cumbed. His favorite seminary has sunken
down to the horizon. Some of tho frietids of
the institution have rallied to its support, and
are laboring to put it on high ground. For thi&
end funds have been subscribed and new Profes
sors elected.

an elderly man, witn two youtus, reciting the
Profession of Faith of Pius IV. I learned that
these were Rev. John Henry Irwin, a minister,
lately of the Cumberland Presbyterian sect, and
his two sons."
On the evening of August 15th, tho services
of Zlon (colored) Church lit Charleston, South
Carolina, were peculiarly interesting. Six

"Last week we received a noblo subscription
of $25,000, for tho endowment of a professor
ship in Wooster University, from a geutlotnan
