Arigust, 1 , 868.; '
The evening 'of Sattirday, August Bth,
found us at Henn; in the kingdom of Prus7
sia, a city - containing a population of twenty
thousand, and situated on the right bank of
. .
the Rhine, about thirty miles above Cologne: .
_The city has in itself_nothing -of peculiar in-i
....
terest, and ; yet it is known throughout the
• eivilized.world as being the - seat of • one of
the celebrated European Universities. The
ancient city of Bonn was of small dimen
' sions, as is evidenced from the walls which
' surrounded it. These walls are of no use
now ; first, because they are not necessary.
Cities' within the same kingdom nor with
out do not prey upon, and fight with one
another, as they did formerly. Out race'
has*ade progress in civilization..: One city
is no willing to let another prosper' and
live i:
peace. Even were the walls which.
IT
now surround European i cities necessary
for protection and self defence, they would
• not long stand the battering of the modern
. .
. implements of war. The streets-of the older
portions of Bonn, like most other cities in
-
the old world are very narrow and crooked
--'-some of them not more than ten or twelve
feet wide, and so angular,. and make such fie
quent turns. that oftentimes one. can see but
a few feet ahead. The city is situated on a
flat, but the subtuts are singularly beauti
ful. From'our hotel window (fourth story)
- . the eye rests on grand hills,on the right. and,
across the Rhine, and - right opposite , the .
castle of Rolandseck, which is' two irides
-above the - city, are the Seven Mountains,
each. of Which is over 'one thousand feet_
, high; and whichare so famous in history,
and, concerning Which many legends have
'. been Written. .• -. . -- - - z
Had wereached Bonn a few days sooner
- we wouldhave seen, we were told, one of
:the grandest' Festivals and' Processions
_ there_ ever, haie, been in Prussia. It was
the ' fiftieth" anniversary of the founding
;.
of the University,. and 'students, professors
- and eminent men from an parts , of Europe
were present. The King , and . Queen of
Prussia were here;"also, our own ldr. Ban
croft; who is now the United States Minis,_
ter at Berlin, and upon whom - was con
ferred, while here, 'by the. University, the
degree of Doctor of Philoaophy. Mr. Ban-
croft, I was told, - way admitted to a seat on
the platform in the midst , •of Kings; Royal
personages and Professors of 'of avorld-wide
celebrity,; and who,: according to the Eu
ropean custom, were -attired ‘in the most
costly axle, glittering paraphernalia; but he
was dressed in a plain black suit with a sin
gle rose in the button hole of his coat.
The Unversity of Bonn has one thousand
- students two hundred and fifty of whom
are in the theological department, and of the
theological students two . hundred are Roman
Catholic, and fifty Protestant. (The city .
itself is two•thirds Catholic.) There is a
double theological faculty—a faculty for the
Protestant students and a faculty for the
_Catholic students. The Professors are ap
pointed by the King of Prussia, who though
a Protestant, is favorable to his many Oath
_ olic subjects, And of Professors there. are
eighty. The library of the University con
tains three hundred thousand volumes, and
with it are connected valuableart and scien
tific museums. Dr. Lange who is known
to the whole religious world as the editor
(and author of some of the volumes) of a
most expansive and excellent.commentary,
"critical, ; exegetical and hornilitical," re
sidea bere,-end is principal Professor in the
Protestant Evangelical Theological Depart-,
went of the University. The Doetor
preaches hut seldom,
but when he does his
sermons are of a hig h order; and though a
hard student and a profound theologian, he
is said to be social and a genial ,companion,
and mingles freely with:the student outside
of the lecturnroom. He laughs at the high
price, per volume in the United States of his
' justly celebrated - commentary. MattheW,
for instance, costs five dollars at home; here
the whole New Testament, with the excep
tion of-Revelations, which has not yet ap
peared in Gerinan, can be Wiught for a title
more than-that 'sum. - '
' While at Bonn we mule the acquaintance
of Rev.; Thomas Lawrence, who hied--for
many years in Allegheny • city, whose
mother and, sisters new live there, anii who,
.*; Idlerlaboring for several years in the minis
' try of the United Presbyterian church, and
. - serving for a time as Adjutant of the Chris
- thin Cemmisedon dining the war, resolved
.to.prepare-himself more fully, for his life
work by studying for a year or two, at a
European University. , alcceirdingly.he came,
to Bonn ten,months since, and is attending
tfinleetureS initie theological department of
. -.the. university. It ...will gratify his many
' friends in Allegheny and vicinity to = know
that lie is well, and feels _that he is being
benefitted by his sojourn here. We' fouled
both him and his wife, most kind, cohr
teens, and pleesant; and _this week, as it .A 3.
now iseationin the university they go ` to .
Geneva to spend some time in acquiring a
more thorough knowledge of the French.' ;
.
Yesterday ;we-enjoyed the rare opportu
nity of hearingthe - Bishoobf London. , On
• Saturday evening we were told that the
Bishop .was : in, the city,i and .'eve expected
' theitlie would
,of course preach on Lord's
Day. At the' appointed hour, in company;
with Mr. LaVirence'and with, we repaired to
the University Chapel, in which the English
°herd' here holdsitaservices.. The Service
read by the pastor of the church was ex
ceedingly long, so at leastit seemed to those
not accustomed to such long introductOry
services.' It occupied one hour and thirty
five minutes, and . at its close the Bi s h, o p

BENTLEYESVILiE CAMP 'GROUND,
Augutt, 26, 1868
This Camp
half
a ground
is situated bont' - kalf
a mile South of the town of Ben leysville,
on.the lands of Mr. J. W. Steven .
• The grove is beautiful in which the meet
.
ing is held. The, tre es. stand thickly, and
are tall and straight, and their boughs are
so closely interlocked as to, form a delight
ful Shade:, , - . .
The number of tents on the ground is sixty- -
two. Many of them are large andyerina
riently built. ' Their holders evidentlex
pact them to be occupied hereafter. ' t
The meeting commenced on last Friday
evening, the 21st, inst. The first sermon
waspreached by Rev. T. - J.McClure, - of the
Peters Creek circuit. His theme was an
appropriate one—the Setting up of our Ban
ners in the Name of our God. He dis
cus-ed it earnestly and pathetically, pro
ducing a good effect.
Saturday brought reinforcements of both
tents and people. At ten o'clock Rev. J. J.
Hays, - bf Latrobe, Pa., discoursed on "The
Newirth." In the afternoon Rev. D, A.
Pierce of California, Pa., showed, in a very
:simple and a ff ective manner, bow perfect
lovee to out fear. At night .Rey. J. D.
Stuffy, f 'Redstone, Pa., preached a good
Beim°
I;
on "How shall we escape if we
neglect so great Salvation?" 1
Sabbath morn dawned on the encamp
ment very auspiciously. At an early hour
the peote began to flow in from'all direc
tions. y ten o'clock the multitude was
very great, being variously estimated from
five to seven thousand.
Tho eight o'clock hour was occupied with
a precious 'sermon preached by Rev. J.
Mc'lntyre, of Beallsville, Pa., on the text,
"With Joy shall we draw water out of the
wells of iiilvation,
At ten o'clock Dr: and Mrs. Palmer, of
New York, conducted the services, ho per
forming the preliminary part, and she de
livering .he discourse. Her theme was en
tiresanctiflcation' which she discussed for
about one hour. Her voice, though ordi
narily good, was yet too feeble to reach
more than about one-third of the vast con
gregation. In view of this and other con
siderations, very few doubted the proprie
ty of her occupying this impiortant hour.
By those who sympathize w th her peculiar
views the discourse was well received. She
and bar husband are devoting. all their
time to tho work of Evangelists.
At two o'clock Rev. A. Scott, of Florence,
Pa., discoursed on the great work of con
verting sinners from the error of their
way. _
At four o'clock Rair. E. Williams showed
very plainly how it is that the Sons of God
are led by the Spirit of God.
At night J. R. Mills, New Brighton, Pa.,
preached an excellent discourse from these
words: "What
,then shall I do with
Jesus?"
On Monday forenoon Rev. A: L. Petty,
presiding Elder of the diatrict, preached;
after 'sermon the Sacrament of the Lord's
Supper was administered to a very large
number of communicants.
In the aft , •rnoon Rev. J. T. Riley preach
ed, and night Rev. J. L. Deena.
On Tuesday the preaching was dono by
Revs. J. V., Yasnall, M. H. Kendeg, and W.
A. Davidson.
On Wednesday, this morning, by Rev. S
Wakefield, D. D.
The Meeting thus far has been largely at
tended and by the most orderly kind. The
weather has_ been most propitious. It is
expected the encampment will be broken
upon . 'PridAy Morning. " .
