gke Vrtss. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1865 ARE EPISCOPAL CONVENTION Full Report of the First Day's Proceedings. NAMES OF THE DELEGATES PRESENT BLOREENT SERMON BY TILE BISHOP OF 3101eTRIEAL, The twenty-eighth General Convention Of the Protestant Episcopal church of the United States commenced its triennial session, in St, Luke's Church, yesterday. This is, without exception, the most Important session in the history of the Church. The great work of ecclesiastical reorganization is one which, though likely to end in the happiest results, still requires all the energy and ability of the most able minds, anti is tme in which the public attention seems to be thoroughly en grossed. The General Convention comprises the House of Bishops, consisting of all the diocesan and missionary bishops in the United States; and of the House of Clerical and Lay Deputies, -consisting of four cleNgymen and four laymen from each diocese. Its authority extends over the whole American Church, but it makes no alteration in the constitution or in the liturgy and offices of the Church, without the contlian plated change is ratified by two conventions find the dioceses distinctly. The House of Bishops comprises many eminent prelates. Their names we gave in our "Religions Intel ligence' a fortnight ago. In consequence of the war, the bishops of .Southern dioceses were not present at the last General Convention. It is expected, however, that many of them will be in attendance at the present session. Bishop Atkinson, of North Carolina, was present yesterday, and Bishop Lay, of Arkansas, is expected to arrive in this oily to-day. _ • The House of Clerical and Lay Deputies is composed of nearly three hundred delegates, and among those appointed to represent dio ceses in the body, we notice the names of some of our most distinguished public men and of many in the more quiet professions of life, whose names are not unknown to fame: Ex-Governor Seymour. of New York, and Ol den of New Jersey; F. Marion McAllister, of California, and like names foot up the list of lay deputies. Appended is a complete list of members of the present House of Clerical and- Lay Deputies.

With the exception of the pews along the middle aisle, which were reserved for the clerical and lay deputies, the church Was crowded by an intelligent-looking and fashionable assemblage, the ladies being well represented. Shortly after ten o'clock the procession of bishops - entered the church, led by Rev. Dr. Balch, secretary of the House of Bishops, 11ev. Dr. Hobart, register -of the convention, the venerable Archdea con Leach, of Montreal, and Rev. Dr. R. H. Clarkson. The bishops followed in dou ble ranks, in reversed order of seniority, the procession winding up with the Lord Bishop of Montreal and - Bishop Hopkins, the presiding officer of the House of Bishops, The procession entered the chancel, where the Bishops seated themselves, when the an -them,"The Lord is in His holy temple," was sung by the choir, and the service was com menced by Archdeacon Leach, who read the Confession, Lord's Prayer, etc. After the Venito," the Psalter was read by Rev. Dr. Hobart. The "Gloria in Exceisis" was then sung, and the 'first Lesson was read by Dr. Balch. Jackson's fine To Boum followed, a portion of the congregation joining in the strains. The second Lesson and the Creed were read by Dr. Balch, the " Jubilate," by the choir, intervening. The Prayers and Li tany were read by Rev. Dr. Clarkson. The 61st Psalm was then given out by Bishop Stevens, and the ante-communion service followed. The collect and commandments were read by Bishop Mellvaine, of Ohio ; the collect for ale day and the epistle were read by Bishop •McCoskey, of Michigan. The Gospel for the -day was read by the Lord Bishop of Montreal, after which the twenty-seventh hymn was S The Right Rev. Francis Pulford, D. D., Lord Bishop _of Montreal, delivered the sermon. - Taking fOr his text I Coy. ix fia—"/ ant made all things to all men., that I might he all means save - some"—his Lordship spoke as follows As objects, which we gaze at with our bodily eye, increase or diminish in apparent magnitude In pro portion to their distance from us. se It is with many Vrthe events that happen to us in the course of our lives, or that are connected with the history of the world. But whatever may be their comparative importance, there can be no question that the inert -dian time of this nineteenth century is teeming with incidents and abounding with speculations that must arrest tile attention of all those who take a thoughtful interest in the prospects of the human race, -whether for time or for eternity. Moreover, in consequence Of the general and rapid Intercourse now maintained by different nations, a movement in any one quarter of the world is felt throughout -all. and a thought clothed in words passes. for good or for evil, throughout all, This is specially true in all matters connected with the speculationa of the intellect, with science and philosophy. But while seeing the agencies now in operation, their force and magnitude, have we no reason to dread the fatal effects they are producing. when we look out upOil this creation, as Made for the habitation , of creatures, who are here only' a. strangers and sojourners, but are all rapidly, one after another, passing away to give account to that Lord who placed them here to oeeuny for Him ? In addressing such an assemblage as the one ga thered here this day, and oti midi an OeCitelen as the present. I am warranted in assuming that, while ad mittiny. the evils that Oast, while we acknowledge what hag been aptly termed the p roresent abnormal state of the world, so different fm its c when it first passed from the Creator's halide. and "Be saw everything that He had made, and behold it was very good;' , yet we have been taught that -there is now a mighty power at work for eounter - acting the evil. We - have been taught and believe that there " a balm in Gilead "—that there is .• a physician" there; and , more titan MIS, that We, as ministers, stewards, ambassadors of Him who has provided the balm, and is Himself the Great Phy sician, are put in trust with the publication of the means of cure, and the dispensation of time good things, whereby the health of the daugh ter of is people is to be recovered. This applies to us, In a measure, as individuals, but still more when meeting in any of the great councils of the • Church of Christ; Inasmuch as we are then wielding a Mightier power, and one extending Its influences for weal or for woe through the whole economy of OUT system, and so operating smolt the state and Condition of all around us. It is idle to waste time In discussing the question why sin was ever per mitted to enter into she world, and death by sin; Or why the remedy was not made universal. abso lute, and certain. The enemy is here; and we have witnessed and heard with our ears, and our fathers have told us, how effectual the remedy provided for us has been, how precious the balm, how all-power ifel the Physician, when his aid is sought. It is our Ibileilless now to Consider whether we can in any way well make its precepts more universal, and bring borne the message we hive to deliver to the ears, to the heart, and to the conscience of the multitudes of perishing sinners that are crowding the highways and the byways of this busy, thought less world. The meat successful example that we have Olt re cord of any one put in trust with the dispensation " TrIE PERFECTION of the G ospc 6 was certainly the great Apostle 01 the Gentiles whose, words I have chosen for my text: "1 sin made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some. " There was much in the early life and training of this great man, that pecultarty fitted him for the work to which he was called. We must, however, receive this statement with itsjustlimitations; In being "mace all things to all /111,11," he never intended to compromise any of lie great articles of "the faith," or to ignore hid po tion and calling as an apostle and minister of Christ. Leta" man so account of us," he says, `` as of the ininisters of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God," while in his bold opposition to St. Peter he maintained the simplicity and purity of the faith as it is in Jesus. But these points being upheld in their integrity, he then sought to make himself " servant unto all, that lie might gain the more," and " was made all things to all men, that he might by all means save some." In a well-known volume on the life of Bt. Paul, there are some excellent remarks respecting his singular fitness for the work to which lie was sent, We cannot help noticing those circumstance of inward and outward preparation, which fitted him. for his peculiar position of standing between the Jews and dent - Iles. He was slot a Saildueee: he had never Hellentzed. He had been educated at Jeru salem: everything conspired to give hint authority when lie addressed his countrymen as a Hebrew of the Hebrews: At the same time, in his apostolical relations to the Church, he wits quite disconnected with the other Apostles; lie had come in silence to a conviction of the truth at a distance from the Judaizing Christians, and had early overcome those prejudices which impeded so many, in their ap proaches to the heathen. Be bad Just been long , enough at Jerusalem to lie recognized and wel comed by the Apostolic College, but not long enough even to be known by face " unto the churches in Ju dea.' He had been withdrawn into Silicia till the baptism of tile Gentiles, and the Providence of God had direesed all the steps of his life to this one result. We are called on to notice the singular fitness of the last employment in which we have seen him en gaged, for assuaging the suspicious feeling which separated the two great branches of the Church of Christ. In muting for a time his Gentile converts at Antioch, and carrying a contribution of money tO the Jewish. Christians at Jerusalem, he was by no means leaving the higher work for the lower; be was building for after times. The interchange of mutual benevolence was a safe foundation for future confidence. Temporal comfort was given in gratitude for spiritual good received. The Church's nrst days were christened with charity. , We have none amongst us in these days that in their individual characters can for an 'natant be Imagined as lit to be likened to the great Apostle. But what the Apostle was in his individual capacity the collective hod of the church eertalulji should be iu Its corpdeate. y eltaracter, and while maintain ing her principles, should, in all her agencies and means of influence so adapt her organization as to he "all things to all men.' It is a sign of liroper life in a Church, - when site can see facts., catch the realities of her position and deal with them. She is not a mere relic of by-gone times, resting on the past. She has gifts and - pow ers within her, and must be ever stirring them up. Should she neglect doing thus, through adherence to mere routine or customary modes of speaking, • then may we well feel alarm: Surely, we must all be forcer 10 Set that there is something to be done— times are changed and changing; the ground is shaken; the world threatens, and requires energy; heresy undermines and demands zeal and watchful ness; and we look to her as our mother-guide to gather together her wise men and councillors, that I they may, under the direction of the Spirit of God, I be able to provide for the present emergencies. I Nor is tills a too highly strained view of the Church, if the be indeed the body of Christ, a city set on a hill, the ground and pillar of the truth, If the pro mises of Godrest upon her, and if the powers of hell shall never prevail against her. But if God has I provided such an agency for the communication of the true knowledge of Himself, for, the publication of the Gospel, for the maintenance of the faith and the outpouring of good gifts to men through the ad ministration of the ministry, with which He has endowed His Church, it is our business, within the spheres in which we are severally called upon to act, to see that this great work he not hindered or negligently done. This is our duty as Individuals, it is specially the duty of the great councils of the Church to take oversight and provide for this. In these days there is great activity of the intel lect; philosophy and science are busy, and the minds Of men are excited and inquiring. On this subject I will quote a few remarks of modern writer; he says: "Ours are times of stirring interest, perhaps more universally so than any period since that which immediately preceded the first advent of our Lord. In every department of science and phi losophy, in politics and national relations, in the organisations Of society, and in theoretical reli gion, there is a movement and an increasing aglta tion—an agitation, not like the every-day ebbing and flowing of the waters, but like the uneasy heaving, which warns the fisherman that lie must baste to Ills anchorage, for the spirit of the storm is arousing from his eep in the under caverns. Strange notions are afloat of right and wrong. Doctrines are taught which, In the dark ages, men would have blushed to set their names to. What soever thing is new in the place and time accords with the public taste and isheld in public approval. The people of this ape are fed upon a strange com pound of deep research and shallow reasoning, and it is not the many but the very few that know how to refuse the evil and choose the good. There is a doubt and an uncertainly anti a wavering in men's minds. They ask and they are informed, and then they question the veracity of their instructors. They work and are not satisfied wills their labor— they are idle and do not rest." Aft industrious instability, an energetic feeble ness of purpose, it is thus seen, is the historical character preparing for the meridian time of tile nineteenth century. Yet all these are but so many tebtiniOnies that truth, disturbing oversettlng, er ror-exterminating truth, he busy with the mind of the million. And with all this variance and change, and passing togand fro, the earths is growing old. Nature has developed the mightiness of her power; Art has efillibited her endless combinations of won der. The multitude has gated and departed; the learned have studied and laid aside their books. Human intellect has measured the height of the high heaven and sounded the depths of the deep sea: man's research has brought for the people the tale of the past, and they know it all, andare weary with its repeaters: and they have asked a prophecy of the future, and intellect and research avefal tered and failed: and the people are restless about the future; and they ask every man his brother the interpretation of his dream. Six thousand years are nearly fulfilled since God created man; the Sa turday evening of the world is coming nearer and nearer, and the whipper, and the murmur, and the cry is spreading: "What shall be on the morrow?" if there be any reality in such a picture, what is the present duty of the church of the living God? Is it to shrink - from the contest with any or all the powers of this world? Is it to seek for security ill Ignorance, or to endeavor to repress the active en ergy of some of the richest gifts of God to man? She cannot if she would—she ought not if she could. Is it not rather her office, Still to lead the ages great expansions, Progressive circles towards thoughts'Sabbatii rest, And point beyond them to the `many mansions.' Where Christ is with the blest ?" And whether it be in collision with the young or the old. the highly educated or the ignorant, the man of ',tininess or of leisure, the rich or the poor, the wil ling disciple or in the owns or infamy and vise, the church ought to try and have her - machinery pre pared for tarrying on the work of sanctifying every state and condition in life—" bringing out of her treasury things new and old"—fresh schemes, fresh adaptations, united agencies, but in all with a fixed conservatism of the same great principles of faith and obedience to the general laws and ministry of the Catholic Church. ,„ Looking at any individual agents, "we have this treasure in earthen vessels," and hence we are taught to disclaim the merit, if any good results arise from any work to which we may have bee* sent; while If any failure takes place, It is not through any inefficiency of the powers offered. hut irons the neglect or unfaithfulness of those who have been entrusted withthem. Ti.ese are grave considerations for all of us; and we all know how great an element of strength there la in unity of action and well• defined discipline, es eeially where large numbers are concerned. ' We have all felt and acknowledged the sad effects pro duced by the divisions in the Church forced upon us by the corruptions and pretensions of the Church of Home; we are conscious of the anxious longing in so palsy hearts for some guiding light which might teach sit now to gather up again the scattered frag ments of the great human family, and bring them into close relation with each other and with God, as the living body of Christ. And when we can do any thing to further this good work, without compro mise of ally of the principles of the Christian Cboreh, how much are we bound to be made all things to alt men. All may do something to help by timid prayers, by the consistency of their own lives, by the largeness of their charity, and so from indi victuals to parishes, from parishes to dioceses, from dioceses to provinces and national churches, the work may grow and extend until we can once snore see something appreffielling to the great ;ecumenical councils of primitive times, witnessing for God and eternity,and the purity and simplicity of the Catho lic faith, intim midst of the strife and gainsaying& of this evil world. We IlaVe Bad held our third Provincial Synod of the Canadian Church , at whieit all the dioceses were fully represented. We have had many and serious difficulties to contend with, arising out of our past and present position. There were grave differ °flees of opinion on sense most important points, and much evil rah ht have arisen, and was itntlete paled by some. But, thanke be to God, through the gracious influence of his goods pirit, as we be lieve. operating upon the hearts of His servants and the moderadon and Christian temper evinced, we were enabled to pass through the trial in the happiest manner, and have now our Internal gene ral organization established, as we trust, with the good will of the Church of the whole province. You, my brethren have allgone through a far sterner and different discipline during the last few 'years. The wounds and troubles caused by it, to the na tion and to yourselves, it is now your office as Christians and churchmen, as far as your ludas:nod will extend, to soothe and to settle. • A stranger as I must be to those intenser emo tions with which you have all been affected, I yet elaim to liaTe the deepest interest in all that con cerns your braileti of I ie Church of Christ, And I claim tills not merely as administering a diocese immediately bordering on your own, not merely as enjoying, with all my brethren, a communion with yon in One COMMII faith andministry, but on ! grounds special to myself, and which, I think, over and above any other reason, and as it were actually identifying me with yourselves, justify my being permitted the unusual privilege of occupying my present place on this most important occasion. And it is this—that nearly three quarters of a cen tury after you had originally received your Episco pate from our Mother Church of England, I was the first bishop of the Anglican Church that ever Joined with your own bishops in laying hands on any pres byter about to he raised to the Episcopal office among you, which I did in the ease of the late la mented Bishop Wainwright, on which occasion I received a letter from one or your bishops, present here this day, saying: "I esteem 'it no ordinary privilege to have been a participator in the first ac tion by which the daughter and mother churches have resnosculated their succession; and that our - Episcopacy receives a fresh communication of the Apostolic grave (yam the present channel," On this, on every ground, then, I feel the deepest interest in all that can promote the peace and the strength of_ your communion. Your lot is cast in a nation of 'immense resources and influence; you. yourselves occupy in that nation a very foremost position. Whatever you do will be felt far and wide. My earnest prayer is that you may go forth again with your well-ordered company of God's sacra mental host, in all its fffil entirety„ to labor as His witness 'before men, to leaven the masses with principles of Christian truth and love, to be "made all things to all /bell, that you may li f y an means cave seine." And beyond the tiordere o even your own great nation, you may be a powerful connecting link with the Old Worfil, and by your itsfluellek and character do much to remove prejudices, soften heart-burnings and promote that peace and good will which we all must long to see flourish and abound. But if such results are ever to be accom plished—if ever the work of evangelizing the world is ever really to make way,it must be by largely ex hibiting that spirit of Christian love which aniinated the great Apostle, and which he has himself so fully described In Ills Epistle to the Corinthians—ii spirit which "suffered long, and is kind: Is not easily pro vokssd, thirtieth no cyll,beareth all things, beileveth all things, hopeth all things, endureth alt things. , Yea, power may force submission—but love, love alone will win the heart, and ensure the continu ance of amity and peace. " Peace I leave with yell," says Christ. " my peace I give unto roe; not as the world giveth gives unto you," And if this peace be disturbed we know it Is through the pas sions and infirmities of poor humanity, and the venerable and good Hooker exclaimed on his dying bed, "I have lived to see that the world is full of perturbations," and lie longed for the peace and rest of those that depart ID nee in the Lord, and we who are stilled called to our work in It must all too sadly re-echo his words • But, "0, Lord, thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee, because he trustcth In Thee." And, oh, if at peace with God, and in our own conscience, then may we hope to "be at peace among. ourselves." And these indeed, are days when they that really fear the Lord have need to speak often one to another, and to endeavor to preserve the unity of the Spirit, In the bond of peace. And, though we may never see it 11l this life, yet all may be assured that a day is coining, when "ti ?Ong Anil reig n IF righteousness: alld the work of righteGuand§g died be peace, and the effect of righteousness, quietness and assurance forever." After the Sermon the solemn and impressive services were proceeded With, the COMMunion service being commenced by Bishey Bastburn, of Massachusetts, who read the 0 ertory sen tences and prayer for the church militant. The next sentences, I , Hear What CAinfortable words," &c., were read by Bishop Burgess, of Maine. The elements were consecrated by the senior bishop. Bishop Kemper, of Wisconsin, recited the exhortation at the celebration of the commu nion; and the senior Bishop having received the communion in both kinds himself, pro ceeded to deliver the same to the bishops pre sent in like manner, and after to the clergy, and then to the laymen who wished to par take. The postcommunion Service Was read by Bishop Potter, of New York, the " Gloria in Excelsiso being sung in grand style by the choir and congregation. The benediction., in the following words, was then pronounced by - Bishop Hopkins ! " The peace of God, which passeth all under standing, keep your hearts and minds in the knowledge and love of God and of his SOLI, JeSral Christ, Our Lord ; the blessing of God Almighty, the Father, the Son, and the holy Ghost, be amongst you and remain with you always." ARIBEBLING 01 , THE HOUSE •(71ir. CLERICAL AND LAY DNITTIRS • • - The religious services having concluded, Rev. George M. Randall, D. D., of Roston, who was secretary of the last house, called the body to order in the following language "This being the time and nlmee for the trier' MECLIAN/'B/YL. - ilia Meeting of the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Chureh of the United States of America, the members of the House of Clerical and Lay Deputies will now please come to order. • I shall call the dioceses, and as they are called I would thank the deputies to send to the secretary's table the testimoni als of their election." The dioceses were then called in alphabeti cal order, beginning with the diocese of Ala bama and ending with Western New York, when the deputies present severally present ed their credentials. The roll was then Called and, upon its completion, the secretary an nounced that there being a constitutional ma jority present from a majority of the dioceses, the appointment or election of a president was in order and nominations for that oftice might be made. • •• • H on. Ezekiel F. Chambers, LL. D., of Mary land, then nominated Rev. Dr. James Craik, of the Diocese of Kentucky, who was president of the Rouse of peputies in 1862. Judge OHQ, Onllinois, nominated the Rev. Dr. Geo. M. Randall, of the Diocese of Massa. chu sett s. Rev. Dr. M. A. De Wolf Howe, of Pennsylva nia, was also nominated. Rev. Dr. Mead, of Connecticut, in behalf of the deputation from his State, called for the vote to be taken by dioceses and orders. The vote was accordingly so ordered to be taken. . Dr. Randall. In voting by dioceses and by orders, each diocese is entitled to one clerieal and one lay vote, the two votes being taken separately and by different tellers. The dele gates will doubtless see the propriety of gut ting together and empowering one of their number to Cast the vote of the diocese. In or der to an election, there must be a eoneur rence of both orders. Dr. Randall, being a candidate, then retired from his position at the secretary's desk, and his place was temporarily supplied by Rev. Dr. Clarkson, of Chicago first assistant secretary. Rev. Dr. Keene, of Milwaukee Wis., and Mr. H. P. Baldwin, of Detroit, Michigan, were ap pointed as tellers to receive the clerical vote. Rev. Alex. Burgess, of Maine, and Judge Chambers, of Maryland, were appointed as tellers for the lay vote. The list of dioceses was then called, and as the names were severally announced, the alepieal deputy of the diocese so called, who had been appointed for the purpose, °arab for.. ward and deposited - the vote of the diocese. The lay vote was taken in the same manner. After some time, the tellers for the clerical vote, (Messrs. Keene and Baldwin,) reported that 24 votes had been east, of which 13 were necessary to a choice, and that Rev. Dr. Craik had received 15, Rev. Dr. Randall 5, and Rev. Dr. Howe 4 votes. The tellers for the lay vote, (Messrs. Burgess and Chambers,) made a simi lar report, to the effect that twenty-three dioceses had voted, of which number Rev. Dr. Craik had received the votes of 13, the remain ing votes being divided between the other two candidates. Dr. Craik having been declared duly elected president was conducted to the chair by Rev. Dr. Shelton, of Western New York, and Judge Otis, of Illinois. Rev. Dr. Meadmoved that the House proceed to elect a secretary. The motion was carried, and nominations be ing in order, Rev. Dr. George 111. Randall was nominated and Unanimously elected by accla mation. Rev. Robert H. Clarkson, D. D., of Chicago, was appointed first assistant secretary, and Rev. Wm. Stevens Perry, of Connecticut, se cond assistant secretary. On motion of Rev. Dr. Head, the chair ap pointed Rev. Dr. Chester and Hon. Horatio Sey mour a committee to wait upon the House of Bishops and inform them that this House was Organized arid ready to proceed to business. On motion of Rev.

A message was received from the House of Bishops informing the house of Clerical and Lay Deputies of the organization of the former body and the unanimous election of Rev. Dr. Balch as Secretary.

Rev. Chas. Breck, of Delaware, offered a re• solution, as follows Resolved, That the reporters of the publiclress be incited to occupy the places on the floor o this / house provided for them by the committee of ar rangements.- He stated that he offered the resolution not only as an act of courtesy, but as a recogni tion on the part of the convention of the valu able and useful services of those gentlemen. But, in view of the fact that the press eon-. stantly made mistakes with regard to matters connected with the Protestant Episcopal Church, he urged upon those who were con-. with publications to exercise a greater degree of care in their reports. Mr. Welsh, of Pennsylvania, stated that steps had been taken by the Pennsylvania de putation to secure an accurate report of the proceedings of the body. After some further desultory debate, the re solution was adopted. ' The committee appointed to wait upon and inform the House of Bishops of the organize,. tion of the House of the Clerical and Lay Depu ties, reported having discharged that duty. On motion of Dr. Clarkson, it was ordered that this House does hereby extend its grate fal acknowledgment to the Lord Bishop of Montreal, for his most apipropriate and elo quent sermon, delivered before the body; and that the Lord Bishop be requested to attend at his pleasure the sittings of this House ; and that a seat be provided for him at the right hand of the president; and that the secretary be directed to send him a copy of .these reso lutions. On motion, the secretary was desired to re quest from the Lord Bishop of Montreal a copy of the sermon delivered by him this day, and that 1,500 copies thereof be printed for the use of the house. On motion of Rev. Dr. Mead, it was deter mined that when this house adjourned it Would adjourn tomeet lit St. Andrew's Church, in this city, for prayers, at 10 o'clock this morning, and that the session be opened at the same house. The convention adjourned to meet this morning, at St. Andrew's Church, at 10 o'clock. During the session we observed. that Bishop Atkinson, of North Carolina, remained seated in the body of the church, and that when the communion was about to be celebrated, at the request of the secretary of the House of Bishops, he partook at the Lord's Table. We have been informed that several of-the South ern Bishops, with their delegations, will take their seats in a day or two, several clerical and lay deputies from the South being at present participants in the doings of the convention.

For instance, the letter from the Berean Baptist Church, or West Philadelphia, shows a prosperity that is quite unexampled in the history of local church organizatioUS. Six years ago the Berean commenced, with but seven members ; its present membership is nearly two hundred, with a Sunday-school numbering nearly four hundred scholars. Moreover, as we are informed, the charch is entirely out of debt, and has attached to it a parsonage which cost over fifty thousand dol lars; but, thanks to private generosity, it has never been an incumbrance on the congrega tion. The 'Berean is at once a beautiful and comfortable church, having few rivals in point of architectural completeness in 'any part of the city. Much of its prosperity is doubtless due to the untiring exertions of the pastor, Rev. James Cooper, whose labors, it is gratify ing to say, are appreciated by his congregar. tion, and ably seconded by a number ofte most public-spirited citizens of the western suburb. METEOROLOGICAL RECORD FOR BEFTEX- Bus..—We have received from Prof. James A. Eirkpatrick, at the Central High School, the weather report for the month of September, from which it appears that the greatest tem perature during the month was 89 degrees, which occurred on the 4th and 6th of Septem ber ; the lowest ,was 49 degrees, on the 19th; the mean temperature for the month was 74 degrees. The greatest height attained by the thermometer was 30.225 inches, on the 28th; the lowest was 29.583 inches, on the 6th. The mean height for the month was 29.924 inches. Number of clear days, 8; cloudy days, 22; amount of rain, 6.576 inches; number of days on which rain fell, 10. The month just over was the Weirmest Sop' tember for many years. The nearest approach to it was September, 1855, of which the mean temperature was but 70.2 degreeS. On the 4th of the last month about two inches of rain fell in one hodr, between 3 and 4P. H. This is the greatest quantity of rain ever noticed for the same length of time in this latitude. A Fix FOR A YOUNG GENTLEMAN.—A yery nice young gentleman, a resident,of Hes. tonville, whose name we do not intend to Ven tilate, recently invested a small sum in chick ens, which he undertook to take home in the Arch.street cars.
