Ma RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE The Joint Conimittee of the General As semblies of the , Old and. New School have oOmpleted their labors and adjourned. The result of their deliberations is not definitely knowp, as it„%action is to be reported first to the respective Assemblies before being made public„ From different sources we learn that advanced steps were taken on the basis of union, over the previous overtures, and, which aremore lely.to harmonize the two branches, than the former plan. The vote, too, on the basis of re-uni4 was taken standing and was unanimous. The scene, when the final, action was taken, was im pressive and thrilling. Thanks were tender ed by D. Stearns for the blessed and limmonious result, and then, hand in hand forming an ,unbroken circle around. the Chairman, Rev. Dr. Beatty, the members sang ~ Prilise God from :whom all blessings [ flow." In this cir ular clutin the members of `the two. Schools made alternate links in almost every insta `ce,- and the Whole ex- pressed the perfect oneness of heart which all felt. It is, represented•that there were many and T difficult questions solved, _requiring a thorough canvass, of which the most important were the doctrinal - basis, the.publication ageneill, the mixed chirrches and Theological Seminaries. - But it is -be. lieved all these questions were satisfactorily ,adjusted. Referehcela.s already been giade to the reprimand of Rev : S. H. Tyng, Jr. at the Church of the Transfiguration, New York City; last Sunday, by Bishop Potter, and of the protest from Rev .Dr. S. H. Tyng.. Im mediately theresfter, the friends of the "ad- Monished" assembled at the Church of the Mediator, at which a committee, consisting of Rev. Drs. Cotton Smith, Dyer and Can field, and others, were appointed to make the necessary arrangements fora public meeting, and to prepare a - protest for adop tion thereat. A resolution of sympathy with. the Rev. Mr. Tyng, in view of his public reprimand, ,was passed: The discus sion at the meeting though spirited and at times excited, was kept in proper bounds: Simile urged immediate withdrawal, and the organizstion of an Episcopal Church worthy pf Alfe name. All thought that a crisis was at hand, had indeed arisen, and one that re quired great wisdom, caution and circum spection. As the _ matteris to come before the General Convention, and as the, feeling hitherto has been to remain in the Church, and endeavor to reform it, we do not share in the fears of some that a schism is likely to occur at present. Rev. Dr. Ridgely coun seled that systematic efforts should be adopt ed, and the constituency educated to demand the abrogation of the canon by the General Convention. One or two of ;he speakers , announced their determinatiou "to accept the first' invitation to preach in a Methodist. Ineetirig-house, if all the High Churchmen and Bishops in the land should remonstrate:" The meeting of the General Convention will be looked for with interest. Rev. H. Ai. Garnett, formerly r.missionary from the scotch Church, in ,Tamnica, has ac cepted of an invitation to take charge of the Avery Coilege for Colored - persons in Alle gheny City:: _ Tlie NcttOnal Baptist thinks the object_of ' a dietionariis not to indicate the opinions,, theological, or political, or philosophical, ,of the author, but the exact ,definitions of words according to the' rules governing' them. It assumes that Dr. Worcester is unbiased in his opinions, and yet his defini tions of baptized, and its cognates, might have been written by a Baptist, while those of Dr.-Webster plainly show that he was not a Baptist. The Unieerse (Catholic) admits that, at this moment, and for many years past, the Irish Catholic sick poor of Philadelphia have been, in the majority of instances, ta ken care of by Protestant benevolence. It says this is a great honor to Protestant liber ality; but a disgrace to Catholic pride. Rev. Morgan Dix, D. D., of the Epiiect; pal Church, in a recent discussion, affirmed that the Episcopal Church did not require the reoidination of a. priest coming from the Catholic Church, but that ministers com ing, from the Presbyterians and Congrega tionalists Itre always re-ordained without any . exception. The Independent says the richest congre- gallon in New _York, except that of Trinity Church, is one of Jew, who are building an elegant unagegue on Fifth avenue: The next in point of wealth is that of St. Bar tholomew, which- numbers Nirilliam B. As 'tor and Corn. Vanderbilt among its pew owners. ' The spirit of union is'of a broader type in California than is seen in :Me older States generally. would seem from the intelli gence from the Pac)fic coast, that 'the Con , gregational, Methodist, Episcopal and Pres bYterian churches of Stockton, Cal., united in union services. Quite a number of con versions are reported. Many members of the EpiscopalPhUrch are interested workers in the meeling't and give their hearty sup port. Elder Knapp,. the - noted Baptist re vivalist is now latxtring at San Francisco, "to help the cause of Christ and the. Close Coin minion Baptists in that city," while at Stockton he did not work with other denorni . cations , According to circulars issued by the. -American Unitarian; Association, the sum of 4107,000 was contributed in 1865, to aid in the circulation of its publications. In 1866 but $65,000. But in 1867, though nearly • 'at thecloie of the financial. Year, only $25,- 000 had been contributed. It is alleged.'that this falling ofPresults from what is termed the "double policy" of the - Board, cora polling the Association to "that of facing two -- Ways at once," owing to the -blending of non-evangelical and evangelical 'members of `the - Board. (hie of the churches states. that atunot, ponsistentiy - contribute . to the thuds, ,:the,Association is strongly, -avowed'', erangeliea//y, unequivocally, and unalterably - CAristian., Porinerly, the Vine Street Congregational , . ~church' in cincin MI, Ohio, of which Rev. Henry)). Moore, formerly of this city, who has ) 6 tbeen fOrinallitlntaid pastor, was Presbyterian' in its ecclesiastical relations, IRE and had such ministers as President Mahan and President Blattchard for pastors. - The Independent refers to its trials, and what it has accomplished in radical and reformatory matters, and thinks its future promising: Jaq as ayourig man, the son of Rev. G. W. Woodruff; of New York, a „Methodist minister, was breathing his last, a faithful Catholic girl, who had been in the family since he was 11 years old, and who waited' upon him during all his sickness, offered the touching and gaznest,pmyer, "Lord Jesus, for his patient suffering during these long months, I let him into Heaven." Her kind heart, says Zion's Herald, had been so Fm pressed 'with his enduring patience that fol lowing the teachings of her Church, she con fulently urged it before God as a reason for his salvation. He died M triumphant faith in Christ. ' Rev. 'A. 3L Stewart, wbo resigned the pastorale of a Reformed Presbyteri i en Church in this city, to become Chaplain of the 102 d Regiment of Pennsylvania Volun teers, recently Post Chaplain at Gisboro,' D: C., - will visit Nevada during April, under the "auspices_ of the Missionary So ciety of the New School Presbyterian Church. Elder John Smith, in early life a Baptist preacher, but afterward united With the Dis ciplies, died in Missouri on the 28th ult., aged eighty-three. He is said to have been a man of great activity, both of mind and body. In 1828 he delivered five hundred and twenty-three discourses, besides nu merous exhortations; had three public de bator, and babtized - with his own hands seven hundred and five persons. In that, year his wife took the hoe and went into the field to help to make bread for the family, while he persued his regliious labors. The Liberal Chriitian (Unitarian) admits that their people indulge too much in play going, and party going; and that they are relaxing their hold in the social and satisfac tory realities of life. The First. Cumberland n•esbyterian Church in this ,city, Rev. Mr. Squires pastor, is enjoying some revival power, and proinises to be an interesting work of grace. Five 'persons united with this Church on last Sab bath. Next Thursday evening, the 26th, the Sabbath . School of this church will give a concert, in the church, for the benefit .of ;the poor. • SPECIAL NOTICES:_ 111.1 , 11N11110D AND THE VIGOR OF YOUTH restored In four weeks. Suc cess guaranteed. 'LH.
