BABBATII MORN.
Unshed in the deepest, holiest calm,
All nature owns thin Sabbath morn;
The breeze sighs softly in a psalm,
Whispering and rustling through the corn!
Calm duel's unbreken on the hills,
Save by ie. hum of wandering bee,
Or wild lii hymn or hermit rills,
As they sing onwards to the Sea!
Calm in the spirit, Sabbath calm
Shed down from Him who rose to-day;
Healing its wounds with heavenly balm
And sending light to cheer its way!
Be this all calm the blessed token
riedge, deep-set, earnest in my breast,
Of peace, eternal and nnbroken,
Full-stored in yonder realms of resU
REDEMPTION THROUGH HIS BLOOD.
I see Christ's heart yearning over poor sin
ners not poor sinners' hearts yearning after
Christ.
Will He ever lay aside nis character of
Redeemer?" "The Lamb iu the midst of
the throne," points Him out as the one whose
redemption-glory will still be seen, though
we shall be realizing a different part. Israel
when in Canaan realized a different portion
from Israel in the wilderness; but this was
still their glory, that they were the people of
a Redeemer God. When you get into glory,
every one of you will be pointed to as a spec
tacle showing forth the redemption-glory of
the Redeemer God. God sees in redemption
one of the thoughts dearest to His own heart:
it shows out His highest glory, all centred in
Christ, according to His eternal purpose. Is
that glory in the person of Christ the thing
that tills your soul ? When telling over all
the glories that attach to the person of that
Christ, do you say, "Ah, that is the One in
whom I have redemption through His blood,
even the forgiveness of sins !"
SUMMARY OF CHURCH NEWS.
PRESBYTERIAN.
The session and trustees of the First
presbyterian Church, New Orleans, the Rev.
Dr. Palmer's, have recently purchased a line
property on Carondelet street, near Euterpe,
in that city, as a permanent location for the
"Sylvester-Lamed Institute." The location
is an excellent one, in a quiet, pleasant neigh
borhood; the buildings commodious and ele
gant, well adapted to the purposes of a pros
perous school.
A proposition was made in the Southern
General Assembly for the organization of a
Presbytery in Brazil. There are four minis
ters there in the neighboraood of Campinas.
Two are missionaries, and the other two are'
conneoted with the church, viz The Rev.
W. C. Emerson, of Tombeckbee Presbytery,
and the Rev. James T. Baird, of the Presby
tery of Bethel. And the request comes up
for their organization into the Presbytery of
San Paulo, and their . connection with the
Synod of Virginia, as two of the four minis
ters are connected with that synod. There
are also two elders from this country in the
same region.
The Rev. William Hall, late of Carroll-
ton, Ky., was received as a member of the
Presbytery of Western Texas at its late meet
ing, and a call from the Indianola church for
bis services as pastor placed in his hands.
The Rev. J. L. Milburn, a Cumberland
Presbyterian minister, was received from the
Presbytery of Hiawassee into the Presbytery
of Cherokee, in connection with the South
ern General Assembly, a few weeks ago.
The Cumberland Presbyterian General
Assembly met at Nashville, Tenn., May 18th.
The Rev. J. B. Logan, of Alton, III., was
chosen Moderator. The Board of Missions
reported receipts amounting to $10,40010.
The subject of engaging in the foreign mission
work came before the Assembly in an overture
from one of the presbyteries, and in the re
port of the committee, and was discussed at
much length. It was stated that one young
man was consecrating himself to this work,
and had offered himself to the board. A pro
position was made to co-operate with the
American Board, but this was objected to on
the ground that the American Board had be
come denominational, and such action would
lead to inconvenient complications. A reso
lution prevailed to instruot the Board of Mis
sions "to ascertain, if possible, the best
method of entering upon the work of foreign
missions, proceed to raise funds for that par
pose, and report to the next General Assem
bly." Steps were taken to organize two
presbyteries of colored Cumberland Presby
terians into a separate synod. A tptal of
f000 conversions and 4500 accessions to the
Church was reported for the year.
The total number of members reported
to the General Assembly is 71,741; of congre
gation, s 514; of ministers, 5G3; of Sunday
schools, 001. The receipts of the boards
(including 'balances at the beginning of the
year) were: Foreign Missions, $48,3 14 'G5;
Home Missions, $!28,7'J3-G7; Freedmen's Mis
sions, $12,271T; Publication, $27,500-31;
Church Extension, $15,02433; Education,
iG5G4,20. Total, including other miscellane
ous funds, $107,(520 -51.
The Assembly of the United Presbyterian
Church unanimously elected Mr. Ralph Wil
kins, a licentiate of Monmouth Presbytery,
to the China mission.
The revised Psalm Book just published
by the Board of the United Presbyteriau
Church, and adopted by the General Assem
bly, meets with great favor. Already the
first edition is exhausted, and several large
orders remain unfilled.
REFORMED,

At the communion held in the St. John's
congregation of Shamokin, Pa., on the 4th,
inst., under the pastoral care of the Rev. D.
W. Kelly, fifty-four persons were added to the
membership, twenty-one Dy tne rite or con
Urination, and thirty-three Dy letter ana re

A new building, to cost between fifty and
sixty thousand dollars, is to be erected for the
Theological Seminary connected with Oberlin
College.
The First Church in nolyoke, Mass., re
ceived thirty-four new members at their last
communion, most of them converts in the re
vival last winter.

. ' EFIBCOrAL.
The Rev. Dr. Lathrop, in a sermon on
Domestio Missions, part of which is published
in the Churchman, says: "California has
received from the Domestio Missionary trea
sury within the last twenty years, I think,
somewhat more than $00,000. I
do not believe we have returned to the Do
mestio Committee $3000." The total amount
contributed last year was $2110, of whioh San
Francisco gave but $8950.
There are in Detroit seven Episooptl
pnrishes, fonr of which have large, fine stone
edifices. The latest addition, Grace Church,
is built of Milwaukee briok, with cut-stone
facings, and its interior is commodiously ar
ranged, as well as ornate.
The Church Weekly gives prominenoe to
the following interesting paragraph, the pre
cise drift of which is not apparent to all men:
"We are enabled to state on good authority
that within the last week a secret cauous was
held in the Church of the Incarnation, in
New York, whereat it was agreed to crush the
rector of Trinity Church in the coming dio
cesan convention. Among the gentlemen
present were the Rev. Messrs. nowland, Con
rad, Montgomery, Potter, and Washburn."
(The Church Weekly is the organ of the ex
treme Ritnalists in New York.)
MORAVIAN.
Of the Widows' House, Bethlehem, the
Moravian says: "This building was founded
in the year 17G1, and first occupied in Oc
tober, 1770. From the laying of the oorner
Btone it was solemnly devoted to the purposes
of a home for widowed sisters of the Mora
vian Church, and more particularly for those
whose husbands had died in its service. A
friend, whose family has shared in the be
nificent operations of this excellent institu
tion, has given the Bum of ten thousand dol
lars for the purpose of permanently restoring
it to its original uses."
METHODIST.
The Board of Education of the Metho
dist Episcopal Church held its semi-annuil
meeting June 8. The Treasurer reported the
total receipts $92,700, of whioh $90,000 had
been invested. The board ordered the in
vestment of the balance, amounting to $2700.
The women's missionary scheme is be
coming effective in American Methodism; be
sides the particular facts of $23,000 raised
the last year, of forty girls' schools main
tained by it in India, and also the Bareilly
orphanage, and many Bible-women, it is
developing a surprising amount of talent and
activity among the American Methodist
women themselves.
BAPTIST.
The Southern Foreign Mission Board re
port that since 1800 there has been no period
when their prospects were more encouraging.
They have been considering the expediency
of giving up the African mission, but have
concluded that it would be unwise to do so.
The receipts of the last year were $27,25451.
The Rev. N. B. Williams, of Alabama, has
been acoepted by the board as a missionary
to China. He is a recent graduate of the
Greenville Theological Seminary.
The Rev. J. G. Phillips, formerly a Me
thodist minister, was ordained as pastor of
the Baptist church in Petersburg, N. Y., on
May 4.

the new providential openings in France and
in Rome. Conclusions were reached, says
tbe Watchman, "whioh we are confident
must prove of lasting good."
LUTHERAN.
The General Synod of the Evangelical
Lutheran Church met at Dayton, Ohio, on
June 8. It was feared that the hymn-book
question would excite discussion, and perhaps
division, bnt it was disposed of happily. The
publication of the old hymn-book in any of
its forms was prohibited. "No attempt,"
says the Lutheran Observer, "was made to
mntilate the Book of Worship, no substitute
offered for the Augsburg Confession, and no
change even suggested in the doctrinal basis.
On the contrary, a motion made to ex
clude the 'abuses corrected' from the Augs
burg Confession was unanimously and indig
nantly voted down, and the deliverance made
at York explanatory of the true meaning and
in defense of the Augsburg Confession was
reaihrmed, and ordered to be inserted in the
next edition of the Book of Worship."
Ine Hoard of Home Missions reported
receipts and expenditures each more than
$23,000; 50 missionaries employed; 13 new
missions undertaken; (i cnurcn organiza

PUMMELLED BY A PARSON.
A Sacrilegious Burglar Badly Bruited.
Shortly before twelve o'clock on Wednesday
night the residence or uev. i nomas k. Mams,
castor of Bt. Paul's (Episcopal) Church, Tre-
niont, Vestcheeter county, N. Y., wad entered
bv a burglar whose plundering operations,
fortunately, awoke tbe slumbering head of the
family. Having slipped on a pair of pantaloons
the minister bounded to an adjoining room,
where he saw, and at once "went for," the
audacious robber, who was then in the act of
ritlinjr a dressing case. The felonious
intruder a fellow ot lusty pro
portions ottered a determined resistance.
and In the hand to band encounter which imme
diately ensued tbe parson displayed a laudable
amount of muscular Christianity by putting "a
head," adorned with a jet black eye and nume
rous severe contusions, on the sorely bothered
apex of his antagonist. During tbe struggle the
fellow found his way to tbe street door, and
would, perhaps, have escaped had not the parson
called loudly for assistance, which was soon
forthcoming from tbe startled neighbors, who
V quickly secured the desperado. On searching
Lis person some eight or nine dollars were
found, which tbe ruffian had secured by break
ing open a missionary contribution box and a
child's "savlntrs bank." Tne accused was
arraigned before Justice Lent Fischer, aud
staled that he had only arrived from Germany
about two month ago. He was fully committed
tor the action of the Grand Jury, uow sitting at
White Plains.

M0RE ECCLESIASTICAL LAW.
To tJ Editor tj Th Evening relyrapA,
Notwithstanding the conclusive and con
vincing manner in whioh Judge Ludlow has
disposed of the assumption by a vestry of the
right to arbitrarily dismiss a minister from
bis charge without cause assigned and investi
gation, "A Student of the Canons" has under
taken to make people believe that Judge
Ludlow in his argument is all wrong, by
stating emphatically that the vestry have the
power, in the hope that he may convince some
weak minds yet, by stoat assertions and by
having the last word. He states that "there
is no law in Pennsylvania distinguishing be
tween a contract entered into by a clergyman
and his parish and one made by any other
citizen." In vain does one look for any argu
ment to support this statement, but a ready
answer to it may soon be had by simply ask
ing him, Where is the law of Pennsylvania
which assimilates these different contracts
and subjects them to the same rules? Judge
Ludlow has stated that they are not alike;
what conrt has held that they are? The most
cursory examination will show how totally
unlike they are in every respect.
The law of Pennsylvania concerning con
tracts between principal and agent is that
either party may dissolve - the contract
at his pleasure. This was said in Coffin vs.
Landis, Peacock vs. Chambers, and Kirk vs.
Hart man, and an examination of these cases
will show that they are put upon the ground
that the relation of principal and agent has
always been in this State liable to be abruptly
dissolved at the pleasure of either party. Let
us analyze one of these cases as a type of all
'of them. In the first, Coffin was employed
by Landis to sell lands for him at Vineland,
New Jersey, at a commission of one-half, or
fifty per cent, of the net profits above the
costs, interests, and expenses. There was in
their contract this clause, "This agreement
is not intended to create any partnership."
Afterwards Landis discharged Coffin, who
then brought suit for what he would have
made had be not been discharged; and the
court decided that he had no right of action.
Peacock vs. Chambers was a proceeding in
equity for an injunction to restrain a dis
charge under circumstances nearly the same,
and it was refused. Kirk vs. Hartman was
an action for the salary of an agent, and was
not allowed.
Now, do the Episcopal clergy minister,
serve, and preach at a commission or per
centage on the net profits of the parish above
costs and expenses? If so, they can and should
be dismissed at once. Are ministers the
agents of the vestry? Can the vestry order
the minister, or the minister the vestry? The
attempt of a vestry in Michigan to do this led
to an attempted dismissal and failure.
When a minister is desired by a parish he
is called to it, not hired by it. He then be
comes an integral part of the parish (Wilson
vs. McMath, 3 Phillimore's Reports, page 67),
and his assent is necessary to a sale of the
church lands, as was held by the Supreme
Court of the United btatea in 6 Wheaton.
454. But why require his assent if, upon his
refusal, he can be dismissed by the vestry
and a person who will consent put in his
place? The argument deduced from or based
upon the law of principal and agent, or the
law of contracts, has no place whatever in
this question, and in arguing the St. Cle
ment's Church case the solicitors for the
complainants did not put their claims upon
that ground; they carefully avoided it, and
contended for the rights of the ministers as
members of the corporation, who cannot be
disfranchised except for cause, and after trial
according to the laws thereof.
We come now to the canon 4 of title 2, as
amended in 18G5, whioh "A Student of the
Canons" says authorizes a dismissal. It is in
these words: "In case a minister who has
been regularly instituted or settled in a parish
or church be dismissed by such parish or
church without the concurrence of the ecclesi
astical authority of the diocese, the vestry or
congregation of such parish or church shall
have no right to a representation in the con
vention of the diocese until they have made
such satisfaction as the convention may
require; but the minister thus dismissed shall
retain his right to a seat in the convention,
subject to the approval of the ecclesiastical
authority of the diocese. And no minister
shall leave his congregation against their will
without the concurrence of the ecclesiastical
authority aforesaid," etc.
This canon in its present form is in effect
the same as canon 33 of 1804. We say this
in answer to the claim that it was written by
a person now living, but who really did not
write it, because he was not in existenoe in
1804. It was re-enacted in 1832, and re
written in 1805. It is a penal statute, that is,
it imposes a penalty for doing an act without
the ecclesiastical authority; and it is a fami
liar rule of construction that a penal statute
implies a prohibition of the act subjected to
the penalty. Kepner vs. Keepe, G Watts,
233. For instanoe, the aot of 1794 imposes
a fine of $4 for doing worldly labor on Sun
day, but will any one contend that all kinds
of worldly labor can be done on that day by
simply paying the fine ? The Supreme Court
of Pennsylvania has held otherwise.
But what is the eoolesiastioal authority by
whose concurring aotion a dismissal is made
regular and canonical, 'and, by another section
of the above canon, entitled to be recorded
and submitted to the convention of the dio
cese? At the same time (1804) that the above
penal canon was passed, a permissive canon
(34) was passed, by which ministers to whom
no wrong was imputed, and, therefore, who
wtre not liable to be admonished, suspended,
or degraded, might nevertheless have their
relation to their parishes or churches
dissolved. It was entitled "Of Differences
between Ministers and their Congregations,"
and it provided that in cases of controversy
between ministers and their congregations
application might be made by either party to
the bifahop, who was to summon all the pres
byters of his diocese, and if upon investiga
tion it should appear to them that the differ
enoea were irreconcilable, and that a dissolu
tion of the connection was indispensably ne
cessary, they should recommend the minister
to resign; and in case he would not, then he
became guilty of an offense, and might be
suspended.
Here was the ecclesiastical authority with
out the concurring action of whioh no minis
ter could be dismissed. It gave the permis
sion and pointed out the way to effect a sepa
ration; but as men will not always be
governed by law, and it was thought that
cases might ocour where separation would be
attempted without such authority, the other
canon was passed to punish sach unautho
rized separations by all the power of the
Church.
These two canons were not in pari materia.
The same laws did not flow from both of
them. They differed in this, that one gave a
power, the other punished the unlawful as
sumption of it. They were both re-enaoted
in 1808 and in 1832; and in 1859 it was in
tended to repeal and then introduce a substi
tute for the canon 34, but the plan miscar
ried. "A substitute for this canon had been
reported by the joint committee on canons,
which was not acted upon, while the original
canon was repealed." Hoffman's Eocl. Law
in tbe State of New York, page 271. And
since the year 1859 there has been no eccle
siastical authority to concur in a separation
by the general canons. Several diooeses, no
ticing the omission, have passed local canons
on the subject; but Pennsylvania has none.
Would there be any necessity for local canons
on the subject if there was any general one?
The meaning of the quotation from the
ordination service about obedience to the
bishop is obscure, unless there is an insinua
tion intended that the clergy of St. Clement's
are disobedient to the lawful commands and
godly judgments of their bishop. As an in
sinuation, it is mean; as an assertion, it
would be untrue. No clergymen have a higher
respect for the office of a bishop than St.
Clement's clergy. If the person who fills the
office will assume a power to sentence them
without hearing, they can easily see that it is
the man, not the office, that is wrong. For
the office they had so' much respect that they
did not join its incumbent in their suit for an
injunction, little dreaming of there being any
necessity for such a step, but the sequel
showed that they had a higher regard for their
bishop than he had for them. The impres
sion they now have is that when bishops are
dragged into a quarrel they ought not to sit
and pass judgment upon any of the parties to
it, even if they have the authority, but, like
judges of the civil law, decline to sit because
inter ated, and let others hold the court.
