The pipe' sets forth that the organization of any great
benevelezt or philanthropic enterprise to moved to it by
a Divine influence. He accomplishes only 'a part of
;rant He designs, and that Part always only Imperfect
ly, anti it was impossible to know to what dimensions
the work He begins will grow.
Bairn century and more had elapsed since, by events
bet forth in :mother paper, the hand of Providence
plainly directed the Baptists of America to the work of
foreign missions, Rightly did the eminent mon, thou
upon the wallsandii, the watchtower of oar Zion, in
terpret these events, and faithfully did they proclaim
them throughout the land. At once there was a rally
ing of disciples iu small bodies to the support of ono so
middeuly and so providentially put upon their care.
it was uow it truism to say that the effect'of till this was
that it laid ii brood and enduring foundation for union
among Thiptists in this Republic. The missionary en
terprise had found an object worthy the nutted effort
of all individual Christians and of all Christian
Churches,and one, too, that would tax to the utmost all
gift, and cranes, Ha talents and acquisitions, and one,
moreover, that cannot be prosecuted with success un
less it be by the hearty co-operation of large bodies of
Christians. It has outdo union au indispensable condi
tion of success. if there is any imPortance attached to
a close moral and spiritual union, if the very con
ception We have of Christianity is agreeable with our
form of ehurch organization and with our doctrinal be
lief, we are better prepared to-day to enter upon a second
half century of missionary labor than we were fifty
years ego to enter upon the first.

Au election was then gone into for °lacers of the
Union: Hon. W. Robinson, of Indiana, arose and said
that the Hon. Ira Harris, who was iu nomination for

lored people to ride in the cars. - A number of gentle
men explained that Mr. Harris had'done no such thing;
that tram tie way iu which the bill • was drawn the
railroad companies were compelled to run cars for co
lored people alone, and Mr. Harris was opposed to that.

Au invitation from the Union League to the Union
to visit their roomt was received: On the motion to
accept, Rev. .1. I'. Hall opposed the acceptance of
theinvitation..lt was the first time that he. had
linown a religious body to accept an invitation
to visit it club room of a distinct - political party.
• This caused considerable sensation. - Mr. John Hanna,
Of this city :.denied that the Union League was a politi
cal organization. It was a league for the purpose of as
. sisting in suppressing the most causeless and wicked re
bellion th:Aluid ever existed, and Ito. as a member of the
League, felt it his duty to make this explanation. The
invitation was accepted,a vote of thanks returned
therefor, and 9}4 O'clock in the evening fixed for the
time of the visit.
The Committee on Obituaries reported that on looking
back upon the filly years of the history of our foreign
missionary arms Minden, they find n long succession of
saintly men, who, from their labors of love in connec
tion with thissociety, have gone to their eternal reward.
lu the home sphere, among those who have gone to a
better world, they noticed the well-known names - of
Deacon Samuel Sanderson, of Brooklyn, Mass.; Hon.
James Dullard, of this city; Rev. John Sisty, of the
same place: beacon Jonathan Bachelor, of Lynu,lilass ;
Beacon Wm. Bilman, of New York, and -Rey. Gordon
Robins, of Hartford, Conn. Of Deacon Sanderson,
long a 'member of the Executive Committee of the. Mis
sionary Union, it may be safely said that he was "a
good man,'.' of excellent judgment, inflexible integrity,
and untiring zeal in the- service of Christ Reap
pointed a member of the Executive Committee at the
last annual meeting of the Board, he declined to serve
on account of his health, and passed suddenly to his re
ward. Be was warmly devoted to the interests of our
denomination in his own Coin monwealth, and had been
"'resident of the Massachusetts Baptist State Conven
tion Ho died as he lived, in the aseared hope of the
gospel, - lea v lug behind hiss in the community where he
lived, and wherever he was known, a fragrance of holi
ness and heaven. .
lion. James Linnerd, of Philadelphia, one of the best
of men, noble-hearted and open-lunsded,gave himself
to the cause of Christ in mature life; - and during the
whole of his consistent and useful career illustrated the -
beauty and power of our holy relighin. A man of ad
mirably balanced mind, and a heart burning with love
to God and man, he devoted - much-of his time a.nd at
tention to the various causes of Christian benevolence.
That of foreign IIIiSSAMIS was especially dear to his
heart. For years - a member of the. Board., occasionally
- presiding in our meetings, and always contributing to
its fonds, no man did -more in proportion to his means
for this noble object; . -
Less known, perhaps, and wielding an inferior pub
lic influence, yet loved of God and those who knew him
best, we place on this record of honor the name of llev.
John Sisty, who was intimately associated-with those
great and good omenwho commend the missionary en

. . -
BELOVED AND HONORED BRETHREN: We have received
With sincere pleasure the tidings of your. approaching
Meetings, and are anxious to be allowed the. privilege,
on so auspicious an occasion, of assuring you of the deep
sympathy we feel - in all your holy undertakings, and
our especial joy at the great blessing which it has pleased
Almighty God to pour out on your missionary and oilier
Evangelical labors. -
Alike in the origin and in the subsequent Progress of
your Missionary UlllOll, we recognize with devout, and
reverential gratitude the manifest interposition of Di
vine Power and Goodness. It- was God only who gave
to Adoniram Judson so exalted a spirit of faith, who
enabled him to practice such apostolic self-denial, and
who crowned the toils of his faithful servant with ouch
an abundant measure 'of success. And 'On heartily
Inagnify the grace of God in:you, brethren" - beloved, is
that the mantle of Judson has fallen on not a few of
his successors, and a - like copiousness of blessing has
attended rheir labors. We note with adoring admi
ration how the way has been opened before you by the
hand of Providence, and your faithful missionaries,
Workmen who need not to be ashamed of their work,
'have zealously bonded the temple of the Lord, both in
the East and West. Your labors in Hannah and China
',have been pi evocative of our zeal, and the blessing that
Las rested upon them an encouragement to our faith.
We contemplate with especial satisfaction the mission
which you have 'so materially aided, and which, in
deed, under God, is indebted to you for for its origin in
the States of Continental Europe; cherishing - the highest
esteem, affection, pure and unfeigned, for our beloved
brother Cricken, we: cannot but regard him as
a. greatly honored servant of the Lord, a vessel
visibly sauctitied for the Master's use, and have
watched with the profoundest interest the, steady
progress of the Gospel preached- by him and his
devoted brethren, as it has spread through Germany,
Sweden, Poland, and Russia. And its we contemplate
the scene, we are led to indulge the hope andcoutidouec
that our gracious God has yet greater triumphs in re
serve, so that the throne of the Mau of Sin, so long es
tablished' ill Europe, and ruling the nations with a rod
of iron, shall be greatly shaken, perhaps evontnollY
overthrown, by die persevering labors Of these humble
and faithful soldiers of the Cross. You, brethren, to
gether with oursolVes, will rejoice the more that the ex
nvellency of the power should manifeStly be of God, and
not of us.
.
We admire, beloved.. brethren, your zeal, nototlyits
the mission!!, y enterprise, but also in every good work,
and give thanks to. God in your behalf. Aud we greatly
rejoice that the dayls apparently at hand when. the Bap
tthts of Great Britain will be more than over united in
the bonds of Christian love. It has been a source of
bitter sorrow to our hearts that any barrier whatever.
should be opposed to our free and loving Intercourse
with each other, and we hail with joy the prospetn 'of its
speedy destruction, not ceasing to pray for you continual.
3y, that very shortly your whole land, so wonderfully
favored by - God, may be as pure as our own from the
tainted breath of slavery. "Then shall the earth yield
her increase, and God, even our own God, shall bless
Sou."
Accept, then, dear brethren, in the name of our com
mon Lord, our affectionate congratulations in this year
of your Missionm y Jubilee : May it be to you a year of
'manifold grace! May its joy be consummated in the
Perfect triumph of LIBERTY throughout the United
States! And may the next Jubitee of your mission he

received with every mark of respect and Christian cordi
ality; that they wore invited- to the platform, and-ad

of nine to meet a similar committee already appointed
by the A. M. E. Church to confer upon the union or
the two organizations. This measure was thus post
poned in consequence of the absence of- one of the su
perintendents, and a number of ministers who had not
yet arrived.

that body to prolong its session a few hours, until the
opportunity should be afforded to take the necessary

appeared that on the afternoon of the 19th of August last

which is crossed at that point by the track of defendants;
it was in evidence that - warning of au approaching train
was given, by the ringing of ,a bell, and thatthe driver
Partially checked his horses, as to allow the train to

It was alleged that it was approaeltitn,* the crossing at
the rate of 'fifteen miles per boar; that no bell was

warning, and that if the train had been ruauing at the
usual rate prescribed by the thne-table—viz: six miles

THE IDUCE AND S ANIT ALI '1 PAIL
The police force have already - given oats day's wages,
amounting to ever _81,200, to the general feud of the
Sanitary Fair. It Is suggested that police trophies be
assigned a place in the exhibition. A separate apart
ment Might be arranged where these trophies could be
exhibited exclusively. The portraits of the rogues' gal
lery, numbering about four hundred, might have a con
spicuous place, where they could be inspected: by the
curiestty.seekera who will attend the great fair. The
price of single admission might be fixed at ten cents for
all
persons who might desire to inspect such things. 13y
tau arrangement of this kind, the police force of Phila
delphia might be the medium through which would flow
many thousands of dollars into the gullet al treasury.
There are thousand, of ladies and geutlemen in Phila
delphia who have read
. something about the rogues'
gallery, but they have never seen the portraits. The
simple fact of such an exhibition would not fail to tax
the curiosity of the visitors generally. We leave the
subject to the consideration of Mr. Haggles, the Uhief of
the Department of Police, who has already done much
to enlarge the general fund of the Commission. -
