The Spirit itself beareth witness icilh our spirit that we are the cLildren of God." We might feel that we were the children of trjod apart from the Word, Imt that 1, as has been rroTcd again and again, an Insecure basis. The devil and our own henrts bear their false witness to this lie. We do not want to make faith our restln-place any more than feelings, but Christ himself. Thanks be to God, lie has not left us to the precarious foundation of our heart's testimony, or to tha evanescence of our feelings. Still He treats us as reasonable beings, and docs dot ask us to accept Ills testimony about onr elves in direct opposition to our senses; and He works by His Spirit, though I should think never apart from His word, on our hearts, In given evidence in such a passage as the follow ing: "We know that we have passed fro-n death unto life, because we love the trethren'' (1 John iil, 14). Here is the Spirit bearing wit ness with our pplrit, through the written Word, In the evWcnce of the love wLlch we feel glow ing w ithin our hearts, to all those who love the Lord. It is the bringing home of the Word with power to our heart, which Is the only reliable ground of feeling; for "My love is ofttlmes low, ' My Joy still ebbs and Hows : But peace with Him remains the same), Mo change Jehovah knows. "I change: lie changes not ; The Christ can never die; Ills love, not mine, the rest inn-place, Ills truth, not mine, the tie." v Again we must remember that passage m 1 John v, 10: "Ue that bclicveth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself.'' The witness of God within us is that with which the Spirit of God bears witness. God's Spirit has no dealings in communion with our old nature, and it is only "he that believetb," a believer, who hath faith, and not merely feeling, who hath the inward witness; and it is a present and continuous thing, for it says, "hath the witness," an abiding possession of that which God Has wrought within us, with which He brings us into living communion with Himself. There is no doubt a divlncly-glven and direct spiritual consciousness by the Holy Ghost of our being the children of God. "That which is born of the Spirit is sinrit." That ia "our spirit" (Rom. viil, 10). The Holy Ghost dwells in this "new man," and "testifies to our spirit that we are children of God." Alford writes, "All have agreed; and indeed, this verse is decisive, for it shows that it is something separate from and higher than all subjective inferences and conclu sions. But, on the other hand, it docs not con sist in mere indefinite feeling, but in a certitude of the Spirit's presence and work continually asserted within us." Olshausen calls it "direct testimony of the Holy Ghost." He surely testi fies directly, and we are conscious of it; it is a fact, not a feeling, although happy feeling always flows from His gracious witness. SUMMARY OF CHURCH NEWS. EPISCOPAL. The Rev. William Pinkney, the recently elected Assistant Bishop of Maryland was, origi nally a Methodist. The Kev. Christopher I. Prindar, late Romish priest, has applied to the Bishop of the Diocese of Ohio for admission to the Episcopal communion. From the Episcopal Convention reports we learn tbat the pat year the Bishop of Pittsburg con fin. id 7Wi candidates: Bishop Huntington, of Cei tral New York, 1066; and Bishop Mcll valne, ol Ohio, SHMJ. The ridiculous story which has been in circulation recently to the cttect that the Episcopal Diocesan Council of Wisconsin had adopted a canon excommunicating all members who married outside of the Church hardly merits b serious contradiction. An Episcopal missionary in Minnesota re ports that he has nine stations under his care, holds three services each Sunday, and five during the week, travels every ten days fifty miles by rail, sixty by wagon, sixty afoot, and has a salary! &R told, of (519-110. The liioc-ese of Kansas has received the noble gift of $30,000, made by generous Eastern friends, to the Diocesan Female Seminary in Topeka. This munificent donation will enable the diocese to erect, during the comingeummer, commodious and handsome buildings for the ose of tho institution. The recent Convention of the Diocese of lsTew Jersey ndoptcd a provision requiring lay delegates to tbat body to be church "communi cants." The new Constitution for the Diocese of Albany, which is to be acted on finally at the next Convention in September, contains the same provision. In the Diocese of Ohio it has been so for a number of years, and it is now the rule in quite a number of dioceses. A ritualistic wedding in St. John's Church, East Hartford, Connecticut, makes some 6 mall f-tir. The Eucharist was administered; the wed-ding-riDg blessed, and the sign of the cross made over it and over the elements when adminis tered; a procession was headed by a crucifer with a Bilver cross; lighted candles were em ployed, and white satin crosses and embroidery decked the ushers and rector. At last we are informed why some of the 6tndents of the Episcopal Theological Seminary of New York were refused ordination. They were so regardless of the rules of discipline, and "60 lax iu the performance of their duties," especially in withdrawing from the institution without permission, "for the purpose of reli gious exercises under the guidance of authority not known to the bishops of the church or the faculty of the seminary," that it waB necessary to administer this rebuke. PRESBYTERIAN. Rev. Dr. Ellinwood, of the Evangelist, has relinquished editorial work to become Secretary of the Five-Million Presbyterian Fund Com mittee. Rev. Dr. Cyrus Dickson has resigned his charge of 'the Westminster Cburck, in Balti more, to accept the Secretaryship of the Board f Missions or the Presbyterian Church, at New York. The Interior has a table giving the strength of the Presbvterlans in various States. Over one-half of the churches (2671) are found in the four States of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, nnd Illinois. New York has 730, Pennsylvania 712, Ohio 580, Illinois 446, Indiana 810, Iowa 286, New Jersey 214, Missouri 158, and Michigan 150; making, with smaller amounts, a total of 4100. Of the cities, Philadelphia has 63, New York 8'J, Brooklyn 23, Chicago 16, Newark 15, Cincinnati 16, Baltimore and San Francisco 11 each, and Washington and Pittsburg 10 each. The Congregationalist says: "The Assem- , It -. . f I ' U V. f llTnaklnfTtAH Uiy .l rcoujici mu j tuui wii, ul ii nouiuLuu, liaving lost the Kev. Mr. Hart, have made an arrangement with Rev. Dr. Boynton to preach for them, and to bring his church with him. Objection being made in Presbytery, on the pi-omul tbat Dr. Boynton was a Cougregatlon- ' alist, while the title-deeds of this church Becured it forever to Presbyterian preaching, R.v. Dr. mith stated that Dr. Bovnton now was, and tor many years bad been, a member of a Presbyte rian bodv. and that, before their next meeting, his letters would be received transferring him to this Presbytery. Whereupon it was voted 4hdt the session of Assembly Church be granted leave to supply their pulpit until the next stated meeting OI tee rresuytery. CONGREGATIONAL. The Congregational churches of Vermont during the past year have received 1774 new members. , , Th Ohio Concreeratlonal Conference re fused admission to women as delegates by a vote ct ba to oo. Henry Wilkes, D. IX, LL. D., of Montreal, as inaugurated, Juno 1 1, as Theological Pro feffor in the Congregational Collcgo of British North America. The Rev. George Mooar, D. D., has resigned the patloral charge of the Firct Congregational Church ot Oakland. This step wan taken with a a lew to an acceptance of the professorship of the Pacific Theological Semiuary, to which Dr. Moonr was recently elected. Tliepcsof the new Fir.t Church in Chl cniro have beeu rented for the year for over $12,000, and no competition was allowed for thofc on the lower Boor renting for fifty dollars or less, and those in the gallery for thirty dollars or less. According to the Ad'rance. the congre gation has trebled since removing to the new bouFC, which cost tlbO.000. At Braintree, Mass., on the 3d Inst., the venerable Dr. Storrs preached upon the occasion of the fifty-ninth anniversary of his settlement, from Frov. iv. 10: "Hear, O my son, and re"elve my saying"; and the years of thy life 6taall be many." After a characteristic and touching firnion, he referred to the fact that not one l ow survives of those who took part in his or dination service, and but few who took a boyish interest therein, lie closed by reading, with much feeling, a few words addressed to the VfJtmg of the society, by Mrs. Storrs, as to the Jnipoitance of sustaining religious ordinances, urging each one to do all in his power to that eiid. METnOPIST. The General Conference of the Methodist Church South, which met recently in Mem phis, TennesFee, passed a resolution recommend ing an amendment to the Book of Discipline, prohibiting ministers from performing the carriage ceremony for any divorced party wboi-e husband or wife is living. The Central Christian Advocate, in an arti cle on "Church Extension," thinks St. Louis has done more for the pat ten years than any other city of the same Methodist strength, for this cause. Union Church gave the largest collection on the continent for the treasury. Two new churches are in process of building, expending already $27,000, requiring $25,000 more to complete them. The Chicago Advocate savs: Stephen Grif fith, of Danville, HI., an old-time Methodist, now aged eighty-four, is giving away all his propertv, and giving his closing business days to so adjusting his temporal concerns that they will be far beyond the reach of probate and chancery. Among his gift Is a donation of: Sl(J,uu to the Methodist episcopal Church Ex tension Society. In Cincinnati, during tho last thirty years, the population has increased nearly four times as rapidly as the English-speaking Methodist Episcopal Church membership. In 1840 the Methodists had one in 12 37 of the English speaking population. In lbC'J the' had one in 4S 15. A correspondent of the Cincinnati Ad vocate, who has been figuring the matter up, says: "When it is coni-idered that in tho last twenty years the population of this city has more than doubled, while we report an increase of but 1130 per cent., and tbat in the last eleven 3 ears we have scarcely increased at all, it is very plain that it is high time we were all awake." CATHOLIC. The Austrian Government has promoted Bishop Strossmaver to be Archbishop ot Agram. The Papal Nuncio at Vienna has given notice that the Vatican will not accept the appoint ment, and Von Beust has replied that it will make no difference. Bishop Borawskl, of Poland, who quite recently addressed the Pope on the subject of the condition of the Church in Poland, is de tained by ?he Russian Government as a pri soner in nis own Louse, no one being allowed by the soldiers, who patrol around it, to go iu or out. The Hungarian Government is credited with having advertised the Pope that it will sanction no suspension of the bishops who vote against infallibility, while those who vote for it are threatened with the loss of their temporali ties if they attempt to promulgate in ttieir sees a dogma w hich interferes with the supremacy of the local government. The Paris correspondent of the London Ovardian says that at the meeting between Dr. Dollinger and Pere UyaciutLc, who spent three weeks visiting at the former's house, there was much discussion of the position to be taken if the Council should decree infallibility; and that the decision was not voluntarily to quit the Church but to make no secret of their repudia tion of tome of its doctrines, aud await the issue of tolerance or excommunication. An extraordinary sale has just taken place at aragossa, in Spain. The Roman Catholic Archbishop of that city having beeu anxious to restcae the celebrated Cathedral of "Our Lady ot the Pillar," und being short oi funds for that purpose, bit upon the expedient of selling by auctiou a portion of the votive offerings of the pilgrims to tne catnearai during tne past cou ntry. Among the lots offered was a beautiful pendant by Cellini, which, alter severe competi tion between an Enghs-h aud a Fretich gentle man, was knocked down to a native lor a sum oi about 15000. An enamelled watch presented by Philippe 1 , diamond plus by Marie Chris tine de Bourbon, and some splendid specimens of cinque ctnto woik, secured high prices. It was the first public sale ever held In tne south of Spa n. LUTHERAN. A great Lutheian assembly met in Leipsle the first part ot June. It pronounced strongly in favor oi unity of doctrine, and insisted on the right of the disciplining those who entered upon marriage without a religious ceremony. At the same time, they allowed the real iorve of civil marriages. The Augustana Swedish Lutheran Synod has met in Audover, 111. The Audover Cuurcu is tbe oldest in the country, having beeu orga nized in lb50, through the munificeut aid of Jenny Lind. It then had 10 communicants in cluding the pastor's family, and now has O'.t'J. lucre aienow not larlrom btiswcdinh Lutheran pat-tors in the country, and 33 new churches ap plied ior recognition to the synod. The single bwedit-h Episcopal church in Chicago is even older than the Lutheran one iu Andover; aud, like that, owes its existence to the liberality of Jenny Lind. It remains but oue, aud has beeu able to coutiuue in existence only by adopting the Lutheran Prayer-Book. At this meetiug the Norwegians separated lrom the Swedes, as had been arraiged two jean ago. forming the Nor wegian Augustaua (Synod. The final separation was an affecting one. BAPTIST. The first Baptist church in the country, that of Providence, Rhode Island, was founded two hundred and thirty-one years ago. The Rev. 11 B. llaikett, D. D., has accepted the Professorship of New Testament Literature and Interpretation in Rochester Theological Seminary. The Rev. C. n. Malcom, of Rhode Island, has sent out a circular inviting Baptists to sign its declaration of faith in the general Baptist doctrines, but allowing ''entire freedom to each church to fix its own terms of communion." He Eays that some thirty ministers, nearly all Bap tists, including one or two college presidents and four doctors of divinity, have signed this paper. TUB MOHAMMEDANS. Rev. II. II. Jessup, of Beirut, says that the Mohammedans in Syria are coming more under Christian influenca. He has several Moslems in his Bible-class The Goveruor-General of Syria una recently telegraphed to from Jerusalem, to know whether a Damascus Moslem, then in Jerusalem, who bad become a Christian, should be imprisoned. He telegraphed back, giving oiders to set the man at liberty, as the conscience is tree in the Turkish empire. A Moslem woman became a Christian lately in Jebail, twenty-five miles north of Beirut, with the approbation of the Governor ot Lebanon, and the city author! ties, who comprise Moslems, Greeks, and Maronites. REFORMED. twenty-eight united themselves to the Lee Ave nue Reformed Church, Brooklyn, N. Y. During the sacramental year Dr. Carroll received oue hundred and nriy-three persons Into his church The centennial offerings to Kutgrs College amount to over $100,000, of which the alumni havt contributed 135,000, and R. II. Pruyn, of Albany, 10,000. VNITARIAN. Miss Crocker, the only lady elected on the executive committee of the American Unitarian Association, has declined the ofllco, and a gtn tlcmaii bos beeu elected in bar place. Tne association has received a contribution of $22(54 from the Arlingtou Street Society, Boston. VN I VERS A LIST. At the "children's service" In the Universal is1 f'liurih. New Haven, Kev.
