kkOhottaitt .. . , • , '"-' . (Continued oil lEiglitti number of the - audience, which pro longed the ocaasion for more than an hour. ReV. Mr. Rapper has been a missionary in China for the past twenty-five years, and the happy couple, after spending a four we eks' hon eytuoon with their friends here, expect to leave for that distant field of labor. The good wishes and prayers of many hearts go with them. • Children& Meeting. - The childrens' meeting which accord ing to the Programme was held in the . First Presbyterian Church, yesterday afternoon, was attended by an immense audience of those interested in the Sun - day School work, and proved as inter esting and profitable as any of the series. The spacious auditorium of the Church was crowded to overflowing, when al four o'clock the meeting was called to order, with Rev. - J. B. Wilcox, of New L,ndon, Connecticut, presiding. The opening exercise was the singing' of the hymn commencing "All hall the power of Jesus' names, - which was folluwed with prayer by the Rev. Mr. Critchlow, of New Brighton. The Chairman then introduced Rev. Albert Bushnell, of Gaboon, Africa, who proceeded to address the children. The speaker remarked that it always gave him great pleasure to meet the children. He hoped to have their attention while he talked fora few moments. More than• fifty years. ago he had been brought info the Sunday School, and for • more than twenty-five years he had been engaged as a missionary to Africa. The speaker then gave a brief but very in teresting description of-the country and the people; dwelling •particularly on their idolatry and misery, and their great nekci of the A gespel. The work , of the missionaries in Africa was briefly-re viewed, from *lnch it appeared that schools , are organized, where the chil dren are taught, andinanv of these ehil dren evince a remarkable aptitude in learning.. . A great many of them have learned to read, and some have advanced into the higher mathematics. They are being instructed in the princi ples of Christianity, and numbers of them are already earnest Christians. The speaker hoped that the work - would prosper still more rapidly—that God would raise up laborers to prosecute it—that among some of the children list ening to him there might be at -least one who would grow -up to be an earnest mis sionary and give his life to the Leading of the heathen to the Cross. At the close of these remarks, the audience joined in singing " . , "From Greenland's ley mountains," Rev. W. R: Stickney, of Asia, was next introduced. The speaker was dressed in Asiatic costume. He gave .a short ac count of the manners and customs of the Asiatics and a very encouraging account of the work of Missions in that country. He made an earnest appeal to the chil dren to do all they could to support the missionaries in their good work, and olosed his interesting address by repeat- ing the Lord's Prayer in Syriac. • .The audience then united in sloginit: `•Shall we whose souls are lighted•" • The next speaker was Rev. B. W. Chidlawsof Cincinnati. It was not neces sary, he Said, to address these children as those who had never heard the Gos pel. They had the Bible—the light of the world—to light them on\ the way to Heaven. This Bible was like a torch to a benighted traveler—all shbuld accept Its light—to fit them for h Ppiness in this life, fit and prepare the for leading ethers to Ohrist.• and fin ally leading them into Heaven. He hoped his hear ers' would accept the Bible as their guide, commit its precepts to rneaiory and profit by its truths. In this way I l they would be enabled to, love Christ, hers labor for Rim, and finally be with Him In glory. The children and audience now sang with great spirit and enthusiasm the Hymn $ . . "The mornlngllght Is breaklag.” After which the exercises were conclud ed by prayer by the Rev. Alexander Clark. Meeting at the First Church. The meeting at the First Piesbyterian church, on Wood street, last evening, was well attended, the spacious interior being filled. The - exercises were corn. menced by singing the nineteenth hymn, commencing: "Ye Christian Herald's go proclaim." Senator Wm. A. Buckingham. of Con. 'lenient, who had been selected to pre side over the meeting. on taking the chair male an eloquent address on the subject of religion and the missionary work. Rev, B. W. phidlaw. of Cincinnati, Ohio, then delivered an impressive and feeling prayer. The congregation then united in sing ing two verses of the thirty-seventh • Hymn, commencing • •*There Is a fountain tilted *ltti blood Drawn tram Immanuel's 'veins." Tbe Chairman requested Ithe Speakers not to occupy over fifteen or twenty minutes each. 4 " I Rev. H. A. Wilder, Missionary to the Zulu's in South Africa, was then called upon, Wilder al id b .r. __ a 0 _ dark corner of heathenism; where there was a small band or missionaries. He had heard a great deal bald about the dying out of the monthly concert, which he attributed to a system of skepticism, which led a great many people to think the heathen better off n withoit n the Scrip tuns. He ; Caine_ from aco try where unknown - centnries of heat henism had rested upon the people, and wherethey, the people, were so Ignorant and de graded that they have not even a system of idol worship. Notwithstanding their ignorance, however, they bad a • very clear knowledge of right and wrong, al though they knew nothing of the Scrip tures or of God. He found a great many people in his travels through this land of Christianity who believed that the heathen who.- bowed down to gods of woixl an di stone, or had no gods to war ohipe swore well enoruch off for eter nity without the Scriptures. He re turned to this country after a• few years' absence and found people who were worshipping id • ' sehool houses now meeting in • palaces. The country prospered, and a fair share of the prosperitY was In .the church, yet t hicontrl buttons for missionary purposes have : not kept pap! with 'the prosperity Of the country. 'He feared this state of aides was sapping life from the church, church, as a mining church. The amount contributed by the Ambricau Church for missionary purpo s es 4 Would not average twenty-five cents to each member. This was an insult to God and the last cow mend of oar Saviour, and the People should wake -up to the Importance of the work that-No.lo be done: - Notwith standing the abject. Poverty Of the people of hie 'mission, in ' , to meeting - their, horne missiona, they contributed to the American. Board ;of Minions an av wage of one. dollar each. • ; 'Mgr.• Alien, Missionary front Eisterit Turkey;: was. nest introduced bythe Chairman. - • ' ?dr.

The , great ob ject of the minion to which he - was at tached,ikas to . sustain the native mission and amid - out native preachers. The time of the speaker was consumed in ' giving statistics connected with the missionary work, in his particular field of labor. -That six churches bad been formed, and 14,000 copies of the Bible and 28,000 copies of other religious books had been sold to the natives. Schools and Seminaries had also been established. Six of the churches are under the immediate care of the 'speak er were already self sustaining, and five others were nearly so, while none paid less than half the expenses of sus taining the churches and schools.. Rev. Dr. Jonathan Stearns of Newark, N. J., was next introneed; and addressed the meeting. /I Mr. Stearns regie ted that the mission aries had not been liermitted to go on, as ,there was no subje t 01 more interest to him than to listen., to the experience of those self-sacrificin men who had gone out to teach the hethen. The speaker said that the gentle en who bad pteee ded him, had utt red some forcible words, and when th brother freim Africa referred to the negl et of the heathen by 1 Christians in this c untr , he felt that there was nothing to say reply—no ex crass to offer. He said t at the skepti cism referred to was' gre ter than many had an idea of. Many persons thought it impossible to convert the world to Chris tianity, and that they gave sufficient to keep up the reputation of the Church and allowed the heathen to take care of himself. He held that the world could and would be converted, not by any one Church, but by the entire Christian Church. EMI At the conclusion of Mr. Stparns ad. dress, the long metre Doxology . Vas sung, after which Rev. Dr. Stearns pronounced the benediction, and the congregation were dismissed. Another very large audience assem bled at the Third Church last evening, to participate in the exercises. _ The programme was opened with a vol untary, rendered in fine style by the choir, after which the Rev. Dr. Jacobus led the audience in prayer. Rev. Dr. Goodwin, of Chicago, was then introduced and delivered an ad dress of some length, in whicli he said it was no longer any question of debate that the cause of Missions was settled. and the' work must go on, cost what it might of money, time or talent. Every man, woman and child was interest ed, individually and collectively, in the cause. The two thousand missionaries which had been the answer of the Church to the call of these benighted people for light:were only as skirmishers, and - ninst be supported by any army to push forward the work. This was not doing the work of the Church. She must arouse herself to greater activity for suc cess. The present was the time peculiar ly for the work, the way was open, and the nations and peoplee whose doors had been thrown open to the privileges of commerce and intercourse with the rest of the world, must have the benefits and blessings of the gcapel. _ To accomplish this one of the great measures was a greater conpacration, at more' self sacrificing spirit. As in other days when the nation was struggling for life, men were called to look death in the face, the question was "who shall be sac rificed 7" and from all over the land, the response came from patriotic mothers, "take my sons, take my all that the country may be sated," so in this work when the question is asked, "how shall we prosecute •the - work?". the answer shcruld be, "take my . all, only let ltie cause of the Lord prosper." If this wete the'spirit of the American Cburzhes; the success of the Missiorm would be secured. Rev. S. C. Daman, seamen's chaplain at Honolulu, Hiawalin Islands, next 'spoke for some time, giving a very inter esting account of the progress of the work under his charge. He favored the sending of a missionary to Japan. They were an intelligent and interesting pep pie, and a work here could hardly fail to result \,112 great success. It there were any ,doubts with the. Board upon the practicability of sending a missionary to these people, he hoped it would be ex pelled and the experiment tried which he felt would be crowned with God's richest blessing. The congregation now united in sing ing the sth Hymn ••Joy to the world the Lord hae come, Let earth receive her King." The Chairman neat introduced C. C. Coffin, Esq., "Carletcu,". of the Boston Journal, as one who bad "traveled in many lands and produced books which had out-traveled him." Mr. Coffin made a very interesting address; in which he dwelt at length on the self Sacrificing zeal and devotion of the noble men and women who wore laboring in distant fields, and with people among whom he had traveled. The re• snit of [these labors could not be told until the jewels wore made up in the kingdoni of rest. In reviewing the work, the speaker said he had been proud to find in his travels that! the, American flag was respected everywhere as the emblem of civilization. and our American missionaries as the most successful, -It seems as If God hid Peculiarly blessed our land and design .ed to use us as a means of spreading his glorious gospel. America should feel this, and instead of moving along in a dilatory manner, should "push things. Missionary 'enterprise should be engage ed in with a zeal and fervor like the) which caused our brothers and friends tb do and suffer, and die in a holy cause. A greater consecration was needed, which, relying upon the proailses and power of the Omnipotent, should make greater exertions for the cause of 'nits. sions. Put more missionaries in the field, sustain them while there f edd nen stantly to the number,, and the proper result would be achieved. ,Thn speaker closed his remarks** quoting a verse of the hymn, • ~, , "Nearer, my God, to Thee, 9, When the audistee Instinctively arose and sang the hynui entire, with thrilling effect. . - The Chairman\rxt introduced the friend of Geo. H. taart, Esq., Rev. Mr. Tower, of England, whom Mr. Stuart said was a man Who could' sing "Rock of Ages" with a clear conscience and urea a man after his own heart. .; Mr. Tower, upon taking Jhoi, stand, apologized for the absence of Mx: Stuart, detained by illness, anti delivered a per fluent address, fall of many happy lilts and allusions. He adverted , with pleas nre to the many evidences of progress which the "children" had exhibited since his arrival in the country, and hoped that it nilght *Ways be thus. ' ,He could not think any questions more interesting than : those which had been under. diactission,.. There was but one POll3 'Wlich he thought blight be,divelt upon. He believed in a wholesome faith, that unless men and.women er !children were converted, they, , woßld be lost in perdition, and then' . the glorlo a fact of a Savior would be mere highl appreol-, elated, .and , the wntke'of la* - k. souls, either in home or foreign lands, he pros ecuted with more vigor: - He hoped that the influence of the meeting might be me from the a PrITSEURGTI GAZETTE : THITRSDAT, OCTO Evening Session. = such u tocausd ail to labbr In the future more eitineisay for the canoe. •- ' ' •Itock of ages,' . , wata-,attng , by the congregation, - alter iwhich Rev.

Hayhurst, the first Prin cipal of our School of Design, distin guished for her rare abilities, devotion and zeal at the head of the institution, was obliged by physical prostration tp retire from the school just after the an nual exhibition in January last. Her ulti mate death, in August, will be long la mented by the many attached pupas who have profited by her instructions. Miss Annie Henderson, an corn- , 'dished graduate.of the school, has erved as Acting Principal since the retir went of Miss Hayhurst until the 4th i stant, when Mr. Hugh Newell, a gentle n fa vorably known in this city, both as an experienced teacher and an acco plish ed artist, having been chosen, by the Trustees for Principal, entered upon the discharge aids duties. The preferment of Mr. Newell is regarded as very fortunate for the future pros. peels of the school, and we understand that the classes are rapidly filling up. We fear, however, that the great value of the training imparted in this admirable school is not/duly appre ciated, that hundreds of young ladlei and gentlemen are wastinkprecious time in idlenels or useless studies, who might here acquire an art as useful as it Is or namental,'and afterwards prosecute it for amusement or for a livelihood. Parents should not overlook the fact that such an institution, well furnished' with all needful apparatus and mpdels, and In °barge of au accomplished Principal and assistants, is in full operfitiou In their midst. The Election Law. A question having arisen as to the proper mode of voting for Councit and Ward officers in tile city of Pittsburgh, the undersigned - were appointed by the Republican Executive Committee of the county ;•to examine the Acts of Assembly and publish their lopinion as to the cor rect form for tickets. The Second Section of the Act'of April let, 1868. provides as follows : "One ticket shall , embrace the names of all candidates for the City Councils - voted for and be labeled Councils, and one ticket shall embrace the names of all School Directors' and other ward officers voted for and be labeled Ward. The ward officers are such as are elected by the voters of each ward respectively, and in elude :School Directors, Alderman, Judge of Election, Inspector and Return Inspector, Assessor and Constable.

A very large number of citizens as sembled last night at City Hall to accord a welcome and hearing to the brilliant Ohio lawyer, Hon. Sam. Galloway, who came hither to address his fellow citi• zens on the political questions which enter into the present campaign. The distinguished gentleman was escorted to the hall by the Second and Sixth Ward Geary clubs accompanied by brag, bands. At ' eight o'clock the meeting was organized by W. C. Moreland, Esq who made a very eloquent and telling speech, in which he took occasion in fit ting and appropriate terms to allude to the Chairman of the evening he was about to introduce John. H. Hampton, Esq. On assuming the honorable position Mr. H. briefly ad dressed the audience, reviewing the po litical issue, and in a dignified manner contrasting the records of the Republican and Democratic candidates for the Gov ernorship. The organization of the meet ing was then completed by the election of Hon. Robert McKnight, Hon. 9, A. Purviance, Hon. J. K. Moorhead, T. P. Houston. Samuel Mitchell, Matthew Anderson, T. B. Young, Henry Meyer, 011. J. W Ballautine, Benjamin Coursm, Louis Fritz, John W. itiddell, R. P. Humes, Win. Swisshelm, George H. Anderson, Dr. T. J. Gallaher, Col. George Gerat, Louis Moul, and Wm. Neib as Vice Presidents. The speaker of the evening, Hon. Sam Galloway, of Columbus, Ohio, was then introduced by the Chairman, and was received with rapturous applause. We extremely regret our inability to furnish a report of the masterly speech of the distinguished gentleman owing to the pressure brought to bear on our columns by our religions friends. It was the most entertaining speech' of the cam paign, and indeed we believe no other orator living could produce similar effect on an audience, He was at times surpassingly eloquent, then droll and amusing. His review of the record of the Democratic party was decidedly good, and while historical truths were in nowise departed from, still he followed that political organization so close ly-- and in such fun - provoking style as to convulse with laughter everybody present, and at the same time to, make impressions which will not be without effect. He urged hearty support of the State and county ticker, and proclaimed that the whole country is watching with anxiety for theresponse Pennsylvania is to make to the faithful execution of the laws and the prudent administration "of public affairs by Presi dent Gnint. At the conclusion of the address, Gen. J. K. Moorhead proposed a vote of thanks to the orator, which was given with a will and followed by rousing cheers.• The meeting then adjourned. New Brighton—Polltical Meeting. (Correspondence of Pittsburgh Gazette.) NEW BRIGHTON, Oct. 6, 1869. Senator Scott and H. B. Swope. of Clearfield county, addressed a large meeting of Republicans in this place last night. The issues of the campaign were ably and eloquently presented. The meeting was quite enthusiastic, and no doubt will tell favorably in the coming election. From what we can learn, we conclude that the Beaver district will report "all right" next week. The coming election is certainly of great importance, and no one should fail to do his, duty. With Geary in the Chair, Williams on the I3encti and a Republican majority in the Legislature, the ship of State will move on safely,. but let there be a change, and who can tell where we should drift to, or how badly we would be ruined before we could apply the remedy again. A little preventative is worth a great deal of cure. Let us use it. . C. Beaver Falio—Musical Convention. (Correspondence of the Pittsburgh Gazette.) BEAVER FALts, PA., OCt. 5, 1869 Prof, J. William Suffern, of Chicago, is now in the second week of a musical convention at this place. Everybody is delighted. The convention is a complete success in every respect. The Professor is thoroughly acquainted with the busi ness, SEW abundantly competent as a teacher of music—in lac:, he very much excels any one we ever heard: He has beginners, and even children, reading mustc in a few days' time. dr. Suffern has been engaged in holding conventions for a number of years. He is the author of several musical works. The Beaver convention will close on Friday night, this week. Every village in the country ought to have a musical convention for the benefit of the churches and Sabbath schools. It revives musical interest in the commucity. C. The fields and woods are pleasant and very attractive under the influence of the genial weather we have been favored with the last few days, but no point of attraction, either in or out of the city, excels, in any degree, the clean, cheer ful, bright "Continental," next door be low the Postoffice, Fifth avenue, while the savory, delicious, appetizing, edibles which are prepared foi its patrons lend it 'an additional attraction which nothing else could bring. Take a look in at the place. Christy Bradford, a candidate 'on the Democratic ticket in the Filth ward, is wanted at the court house. He was there yesterday, but, left unceremoni ously. it appears that Christy, who was in jail. was wanted to testify, to certain matters before the grand jury and was taken out of jail for that purpose.
