They i re fathering homeward from every land, One by one: Aa their weary feet touch the shining trand, One by one : Their brows are Inclosed in a golden crown. The r travel-ttalned garments are all laid down, And, clothed with while raiments, they rest on tte mead. When- the Lamb loveth His chosen to lead, One by one. Before they rest they pass throngh the strife, One by one; Tun ego the waterl of (Jrath they enter life, Onebyene; T t ome are ihe floods of the river still. An hey lord 'heir way to the heavenly hill; T' ' hers the waves run fiercely and wild, Yet all reach the home of the undcQled, One by one. We too Bhall come to the river's side, one by one ; We are nearer Its wars each even-tld-3, One by one ; We can heur the noise and daati of the stream, How and again, through our Die's deep dream hometums the floods o'er the banks o'ertlow, Sometimes In ripples the small waves go, One by one. Jesus 1 Redeemer 1 we look to Thee, One by one ; We lift up our voices tremblingly, One by one ; The waves of the river are dark and cold, We know not the spots where our feet may hold. Tliou, who didst puss through In deep midnight, Strengthen us, send us the stair and the light, One by one. Plant Thou Thy feet beside as we tread, One by one ; On Thee let us lean each drooping head, One by one; Let but Thy mighty arm round us be twined, We'll cast all our frars and cares to the wind; Bavlnur! Redeemer! with Thee full In view, Smilingly, gladsomely, shall we pass through, One by one. THAT BLESSED JIOPF. "By grace are ye Baved." And the same grace by which we are "called," and "justi fied," and "established," and helped "in time of need," not only brings salvation to man kind, bnt also teaches them "that denying ungodly and worldly lusts, they should live soberly, and righteously, and godly in this present world, looking for that Blessed Hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and onr Saviour Jesus Christ; who gave him self for us, that lie might redeem ns from all iniquity, and purify unto Himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works." The faith, the hope, and the conduct of the followers of Christ are thus brought under the direction of the saving grace of God. The world's ungodliness and lusts are to be discarded, and the world's hopes are as vain as its lusts are vile. The hopes of joy in earth's vanities, of peace in paths of sin, and of golden days in a world that reeks with guilt, and tramples scornfully on the Saviour's blood, are doomed to sad terrible disappoint ments. Such hopes cannot abide the trials of life, the agonies of death, and the stern real ities of judgment and eternity. For tfaoso who would build upon a suro foundation, "a better hope" is prepared, "which hope we have as an anchor to the bouI," entering "into that within the vail." And those "who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before them," have obtained "through patience and comfort of the Scriptures," "a lively hope," a sure and steadfast hope, a "good hope through grace," a "hope of salvation," a "hope of eternal life, ' a "hope of the glory of God," a hope of the "resurrection of the dead," a hope of being like Jesus and seeing Him "as lie is," a blessed hope of the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; a hope that "tuaketh not abhamed, because the love of God is shed abroad in our heart by the Holy Ghost." LAY nOLD ON GOD. Are there times when all things here Beem hollow and unreal, with vanity.and emptiness written upon them times when there seems to us, as there seemed once to the royal preacher at Jerusalem, no profit to a man of any labor wrought under the sun; but vanity of vanities, and all vanity? What help is there against this, the worst sickness of the soul, save in laying hold of Him who is not hollow, not unreal, not a shadow nor a dream; who abides forever, and who causes His servants to inherit substance; what help but in laying hold of nim, as He can be only laid hold of in prayer? Or, again, are there other times when the world threatens to become too much to us the near hillocks of time to hide from us the more distant mountains of eter nity earth's tinsel to outshine heaven's gold? It is in God, in the light of His presence, as we press into that presence, that all things assume their due proportions, are seen in their true significance the tinsel for tinsel, the gold for gold; that the hillocks subside, and the mountain-tops appear; that the shadows flee away, and the eternal substances remain. Trench. SUMMARY OF CUUIiCU NEWS. iriBCOFAL. A correspondent of the Protestant Churchman has a list of thirty-two presbyters who are in the habit of making the omission of the word "regenerate." They are distri buted through seven dioceses. Several of them are doctors of divinity. Many of them have done this with the knowledge of their bishops. Tbe Purchase case has become the sub ject of a voluminous correspondence, which is of little interest to outside readers, as it relates to technioalities and detail. The principal fact which has taken place is that Mr. Purchase has made two applications for a rehearing. The first application was, for some reason, not acted upon. The second was referred to the Judicial Committee of the Piivy Council, who took the matter into consideration, and appointed tne 2otu or April to hear the application. The council of the Church Association have come to the conclusion that tbe decinion does not prohibit the use of the black town in preaching. The Rev. William Stewart, of Watorford, N. J., was found on Enster Monday dyiog ia Lis garden, and before any medioal assistance could be summoned ne was dead. The property known as St. Mark's Epis copal Church, Boston, has been transferred by the corporation of the parish to the rector, wardens, and vestry of Trinity Church. By . thus enlisting the interest of Phillips Brooks, it is hoped to infuse new life into tlut enter prise. The Pacific Churchman says that Bishop Whipple, of Minnesota, ha been invited t j take the Dioeese of Hinoluln, iu tbeS iul wich Islands. It in thought he may accent the position on aocount of his health requiring milder climate. On Sunday, the ICtu instant, Rev. Dr. Tyng, of hew lork, preuched his bean-cn tenmal sermon, in wuiun ue Hioiea tuui u has, in the half century, delivered 10,()0:) K,r mons, Las received y0()0 persons by profus. iion into the church, and Las had 25,000 chil dren under iastruetiou iii his Sabbath-school Fifty young men have been prepared for the xniiiUtry uuaer rim iiiirucuou. jus couture leots $.1,000,000, besides $ G00.000 for the building of four churches and six chapels. A 1 arts correspondent of the Churchman says that the American Jbpisoopal Church in that city did not close its doors a single Sab bath during the siege. Bishop Huntington and Dr. uiarK, 01 Syracuse, N. Y., in discussing the Cheney question in the secular papers, declare that bnptismal regeneration is a doctrine of the Bible, and of the Trote&tant Episcopal Chuxob, and defend Bishop Whitehouse in Suspending ftlr. Cheney. BArTIST. The National liaptiitt give4 the statistics for 1870 from the JJaptiat 1 ear Hook of 1871. The statistics are fuller than those for the previous year, but still marred by many de ficiencies arising from the failure of local associations to report. Nevertheless, im portant gains are indicated by the following figures: Minister. 10.M19 8.7-.T 77,795 70.172 1,419, 4!3 1,231,319 Gain 2,002 2,031 7,03 193,14 Maine falls back a little in its figures, as it did in 180!) and in 18G8. Nebraska has in creased her 7;0 Baptists to 1000, and also reports seven new churches. New York Stat is not doing well. Her net gain in members is only 114, while the number of her churches has retrograded from 842 to 830. Pennsylva nia has gained 12 churches, 3 ministers, and ()!)G members during the year. Tne three States having the largest number of Baptists are: ueorcia, with 134,337; lrgima, with 22,120; and New York, with 1CO,010. Sun- day-school statistics are given as follows: Jt'ntrntrnt Conlrih. $122,14310 73,927 13 S'holnm. 473,6fit 837,647 130,017 1970.. .

Lmlher, formerly a mission ary in Burmah, will preach at the Tabernacle Baptist Church, in this city, to-morrow. PRESBYTERIAN. The United Presbyterians have thirteen organized congregations in New York and Brooklyn and the neighboring cities in New Jersey. A "railway chapel was dedicated at Den- nison, Ohio, on April (, for the use of the officers and hands of the "Panhandle" Hail road, which has its workshops at that plaoe. This chapel is said to be the second building of the kind in the country. There are forty-one Presbyterian churches on the line of the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne, and Chicago .Railroad. Of all the ministers who were supplying these churches two years ago, only ten now remain. At tne regular semi-annual meeting of the Reformed Presbytery of Pittsburg the congregation of Ebenezer, Mercer county, Fa., were dismissed, on their own petition, to connect themselves with the United Pres byterian Presbytery of Butler. At the same meeting the congregation of llermon, at their own request, were dismissed to connect theai- pelves with the United Presbyterian Prosby- tery of Mercer. The church of Sandusky, Crawford coun ty, having unanimously requested it, wan placed upon the roll of the churches of the Presbytery of Central Ohio. The Rev. T. P. W. Magrnder, a former member of the late Schuyler Presbytery, and signer of the Declaration and Testimony, who renounced the jurisdiction of that Pres bytery because of the action of the Assembly of 1307, that met iu Cincinnati, has been re ceived as a member of the Presbytery of Cen tral Ohio. He is now preaching for the church at Bladensburg, Ohio. During the session of the General As sembly of the Presbyterian Church in the tuned states of America, to be held in Chicago in May next, a daily paper will be issued, called the Vavy uenerai Assembly Journal, containing a full report of the pro ceedings of the Assembly. The Chinese Mission Church of ban Francisco, Cal., under the care of ltev. A. V. Loomis, numbering fifteen members, has contributed $7. to the Memorial Fund, fifty of which is to be appropriated to the erection of a training school for Chinamen in San Francisco, and the remaining twenty-five to the education of a native medical and theo logical student in Canton. METHODIST. Tbe Rev. T. B. Taylor, Methodist, has been excluded by the Kansas Conference for entertaiLing bwedenborgian and spiritual istio doctrines. The examination was pro tracted, and the final vote largely against him. In the Circuit Court of Norfolk county, Va., recently, the church properly of the Methodist Protestant church at Good Hope was transferred to the Methodist Episcopal Church South. A convention of ministers and laymen from all the annual conferences in the South ern States is to be held in Athens, Ga., on June 15 and the two following days, for the discussion of educational and other practical questions relating to the progress of Christian woik in tne bontu. The Methodixt says the three years rule for ministers works well in New England. Twenty-two ministers who had served in their respective charges two years were returned to the same churches for tbe third year, aud thirteen closed their third years pastorate. Most of them testify that the third year was the most successful of the three. On Lis own responsibility, Dr. Carltoa has appointed three experts to examine the accounts of tbe Book Concern daring his con nection with it. A cottage is being buut at Long Branch as a cift to Bishop Simpson. President Grant made the first subscription of J 100. During tbe past year the Metholist Church Extension Society raised $ 130,000, and erected 210 church edifices. The Presbyterians of Philadelphia will hold a joint meeting at 4 o clock P. M. to- morrow, in the Seventh Presbyterian Church (Rev. Mr. Cook's), Broad street aud Penn Square; Interesting addresses are expected from Rev. Dr. Ellinwood, Hon. William E, Dodge, and W. S. Gilman, Esq., of New York, relative to the present condition aud successful completion of the $.",Oi)i),(kji) memorial fund. Rev. Dra. Wulits and Hum pLrey of tbis city w ill also make addresses. The object is not to collect fnnds, but to in terest every Presbyterian in the completion of tlix good work before the meeting of the Gt-Lcial Assembly iu May. ('OXGKECUTIONAL. TLe Northwestern Associati3n of Iowa Lea withdrawn its fellowship from the Rev. E. C. Miles, of Springvale, beoiuse of his deniid of the inspiiation of the Bible aud the divinity of Christ. Rev. H. G. Mench, for twenty years a Metbodiht minister, has joined the Congrega tional Church at Lawrence, Kaunas. ( tiurrhr. 1870 17,74 1SC9 15,143 gational churches of New York and Brooklyn, recently held in Brooklyn, a resolution was passed, declaring it to be for the interest of the body that an executive union conference be formed, whose duty it shall be to aid in forming and sustaining new churches in the metropolitan districts. In the discussion of woman's work in the churshes, Dr. Storra and Mr. Beecher expressed the opinion that woman should not only be permitted but en coureged to pray in publio aud address meetings. Two missionaries of the American Board have recently died Rev. Horace S. Taylor, of the Madura (India) Mission, who died February 3, at the age of fifty, seven, and Rev. W. F. "Williams, who died at Mardin, Turkey, February 14, at the age of fifty three. The Congregational Association has pur chased the property at the corner of Beacon and Somerset streets, Boston, Mass., which, together with the adjoining estate, to be secured as soon as the needed funds are raised, will be fitted up for the use of the various boards and associations of the denomi nation. The continued ill health of the Rev. John Monteith, with a disease which is pro nounced incurable, unless he abandons minis terial labor, has compelled his resignation of the pastorate of the Mayflower Church, St. Louis. ROMAN CATHOLIC. "Dr. Dollinger," says the London Satur day llcvieip, "is the one Catholic divine of Germany who enjoys a European reputation both without and within the bounds of his own communion, whose piety no ultramon tane has ventured to question." The Roman Catholic College of May nooth, the grant to which was withdrawn under the act for the disestablishment of the Irish Church, has, it is said, within the last few days, received from the Church Commis sioners the Bum of 300,000 by way of com pensation. The Pope is said to have lately granted audience to a messenger from Bishop Dupan loup, of Orleans, who was prominent among the opposition in the (Ecumenical Council, tendering the submission of his own opinions to the decision of the Church. A cardinal's hat is held out in prospective as a reward for this obedience. MORAVIAN. The Cliristian Advocate lately called at tention to the fact that the Moravian Church, which is in a sense the parent of Methodism, hns made such insignificant progress. In this country it has but 55 ministers and 25,000 people in its congregations; while Metho dism numbers its preachers by thousands and its members by millions. The Moravian replies, in a courteous tone, that the Church of the Brethren has exerted a wide and salu tary influence upon other churches, in con serving orthodoxy in Germany and in pro moting a spirit of nrjion in America, looking more to spiritual fellowship than growth in ntunocrs. UNIVERSALIS!. It is a suggestive fact that to-morrow is the centennial birthday of Hosea Ballou. This came has long been regarded by larse numbers of people as the synonym of very gross and mischievous errors. But saying not ning now of his opinions, his one-hundredth birthday oan scarcely fail tonnggest: 1. How powerless what are called unfavorable circum stances are to hinder a man from wide and eminent influence if he really has the stuff of manhood in him; and, 2. How great have been the changes in theological opinion and religious organization in this country during these hundred years past. Mr. Ballou was born in Richmond, N. II., then almost a wilderness, April 30, 1771. His father was a Baptist preacher, a good man, but so exceed ingly poor that the inevitable hardships of pioneer life beset his children in their mo3t rugged form. A rougher a more destitute childhood, as regards conveniences and ad vantages, it would be difficult to imagine. But in the case of young Hosea it proved the germ of a great manhood. He joined his father's church when he was eighteen, but he was a Universalist preacher before he was twenty-one. His second attempt to preaoh was a failure, and an elder brother (father of Rev. Moses Ballou, of this city) had to finish Lis discourse. But he soon grew into emi nence, and in his prime is said to have been a preacher of wonderful simplicity and power. The Universalist Church does not now gene rally bold some of his opinions, but no man has done so much as he to shape its funda mental principles or to give origin and impe tus to what is called Liberal Christianity in America. The denomination will of right widely commemorate his centenary birthday, and his character and work are to be the topics of Bermons to morrow morning by Rev. Messrs. Ballou and Brocks, the Universalist pastors of this city. MISSIONARY. Mr. Leonard, of Marsovan, Turkey, writes as follows of the observance of the week of prayer at that mission: "It may interest you that a small congrsga tion of enlightened Armenians and Greeks here, on the shores of the Black Sea, are ob serving the week of prayer. About thirty per sons, including women and children, meet every evening in an upper room, leased by the board, and, following the order of topios sug gested by the Evangelical Alliance, engage in prayer and praise. Pains are taken to give to the meetings a social character, and to have tne room attractive and pleasant. A mer chant brother brings some Turkish carpets to cover the hard wood floor, making a nice seat lor tne cnudren; a watcn-tiuker volunteers a marine clock, which finds a prominent place on the bulging mantelpieoe; two native sisters arrange in good taste the usual supply of stiff cushions on the divans against the wall; and the low, unpainted candle-stand rejoices in a pure white table-spread. Our preaching is in iurkihii. The singing is unqualifiedly con gregational. If it sometimes lacks melody, the want is morn than compensated by the delight vnicn every one feels in having a part.
