and Trasenably irtere=ting. Indeed, to •ea•
hibit the present condition of the city in a
etimpPndicus and intelligible form, is no
easy task.
Judge "Nesell, in Iris charge to the Grand
Jury, brought to its notice the Course Pur
suer, by a Part of Me Press, with regard to
legal proceedings in the administration of
justice, and •tbleatened to hold the press to
a strict accountability in the future. This
no doubt results from the fact, that the
better part of the secular press has been
very severe in its animadversions on some of
the official acts of the Judge. The press
may exhibit a. wantonness and malignity
demanding the intervention of law, but
public servants must expect to have their
acts examined and investigated, and if they
are unwilling to submit to such a test, in a
free country such as this, they had better
retire to private life, where they may be
safe from the critic so much dreaded.
The tribe of characters long known, in
Paris, whence they have spread to Londoni
as Bohemians—•not because natives of .that
country, but owing to their loose and.deina
tory habits—has made its appearance in New
York. It is composed of young men *lio
have no particular calling in life, but Who
have a taste for music, poetry, balls, wines,
&o. A large part of this class, it is said,
originates from " unemployed doctors and
blighted lawyers." The natural 'course of
such is from idleness to dissipation, gam
bling, drunkenness, and ruin. The com
pany of this class Of men, at least in the
earlier stages of their career, is seductive,
and to be shunned by all. Indeed the cor
ruption and impurity fOund among yontig
men in the large cities and lowns, is alcrm
ing in the extreme. The gospel, the Gas.
pal alone, can rescue and save them. ,
The Contributions to the American Rome
Missionary Society have fallen off sixty'per
cent. within the last three months. But if
money is withheld, from the religious Sosoi
eties, it is not merely because of its sear
city, for there is enough, to spend lavishly
en other objects. At two concerts given
by Thalberg, the renowned pianist, on the
mitrning and evening of the same day, just
before leaving the country, the receipts
were 05,000.
Several writers, in that able weekly of
the Baptist Church, The. Examiner, have
been suggesting the propriety of discussing
the views of that body with regard• to "Close
communion," the restraints • of, which are
evidently becoming irksome to many per
sons.,
of deep and ardent piety in that de.
nomination. The last number contains an
offer of a premium of SI9G, by the " South-
Western Baptist Publication Society," for
the best tract on' the 'subje'et, of not, less
than thirty.six, and not more than one, hun
dred 'pages, 'Zino.'
Though by far the largest portion of the
American Church recognizes the aoctrine of
infant baptism, yet the • Baptized Mem
bers of the Church, who, have not made
a profession of faith in. Christ, are treated
for the most part •precisely as others who
have never been 'devoted to' the! Lord inn
baptisin. To this part of the, hock" the
Church has been very unfaithful:- Bat the
General' Synod of the Reformed. Dutch
Church has determined to correct the evil,
so far as that branch of the Chnro.h
is ;con
corned. The following resolution hail , been
passed
Resolved, Vast in the transfer of the parente
from one section of the 'Church. to another. the
membership of `their baptized childien be recog
nized, and that they be inoluded lain& transfer.
Does not consistency require a similar,.
practice in our own'llhfirch
The Churchman becomes alarmed, aid
grows severe, at the thought of-any Roo:q
-ration, by the Epleeopazy, of`-other denomi
nations as parts of the true Churcih of Jesus
Christ. Bishop .I. l ee, of lowa, is said to be
a matt of earnest piety, active labors, and
most catholic spirit; cordially sympathizing
and co•operating with all Evangelical Chris ,
tians. Recently he published
. a thanks
giving sermon, making cdthe same time an
apology for the haste with which it had
been prepared. The Glicrehman forgives
the haste and probable inaccuracies, but has
no pardon for , the spirit manifested toward
other Evangelical Christians. This is a
heinous sin for which the Churchman has
no forgiveness. We give the' following ex
tract, not became the° 'Muni/Man is in
itself of much importance, but to ? show the
temper of the High Church party, of which
it is the' organ. That journafremarks :
But there are other.defects for which such an
apology Will not suffice, and which condemn ,the
sermon as the production of a'Rt. Rev. Prelate of
the Church. We allude, in connexion with other
like passages, to the teaching contained in , the
following t--" This unity of spirit, has, Aitken°
characterized the Christians ofjowa a happy
degree; and it should be our" endeavor to per.
petunte it to the latest generations. fel is by no
means incompatible with a diversity of doctrinal
views and of ecclesiastical organizations," bkcs.da.
Such language, in the most charitable view of ,
the case, to say the least, is unbecoming a tit:elate'
of the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church.
What, for instance, are we to make AI that soleum
petition in the Litany of the Church, " From all
false doctrine. heresy, and schism, good Lord de
liver tit," in ootinexiou with'suchn sentiment as
that we have quoted ? ~•
PHILADELPHIA
The Lectures of the Rev. Dr. Stevens, on
Scenes in the Holy Land and Classic Lands,
have been so well received that he has been
asked to repeat the whole course, which he
will do at Concert Hall; the proceeds are to
be employed for the benefit of the " North
ern Home for Friendless Children."
The first Monday of the year was ob.
served in some of the churches—according
to a plan originated in E urope , long ago—aa
a Concert of Prayer for the conversion of
the world. The attendance was good, and
the services were interesting.
A Generous. La rim.% no stranger to acts
of benevolPnee, connected with one . Of the
New School Presbyterian churches, which
has been for some time undergoing repairs,
left his.cheok for $4,000 previous to the
• meeting of the Board of Trustees, to paw
upon the bills that might be presented.
The Philadelphia " Sabbath School As
sociation," with that well known (Thriatifin
and philanthroPhit ) george IL. Stuart, ai its/
head, is making preparations fo: active and
enlarged operations to reach the youth be
tween the ages of five and fifteen years. It
is intended that every Evangelical Church
within the limits of the city shall have one
or more Mission Sobo&s.
During the year 1856, the West Spruce
Street Church, of whieh the Rev. W. P.
Breed, formerly of Steubenville, is pastor,
has been greatly b:essed, forty-six having
bee© added on profession of faith.
The Mechanical Bakery, a steam estab
-1 shment at Broad acid 'Vine streets, is in
complete operation, except the loaf•cutting
cylinder. It was visited, last week, by
Judge Lewis, the, representatives of the
press, and other dignitaries. It is a real
labor saving machine, and does its work so
admirably, as to produce involuntary excla
mations from gentlemen present : "No

Cotigress has been
. enjoying another holiday,
having adjourned froM Thursday till btonday.!
'The excuse was, the commemoration of the victory!
gained by Gen. Jackson over the British at Newi
Orleans, forty-four years ago.
The day before the adjournment 'Was one of
peculiar interest, especially in the Senate. The:
President had sent in, `to both Houses,"the'papers;
called for, relative to , the enforcement of the
neutrality laws, and the capture of. General Wal-!
ker and his men, by Commodore Paulding ; ac-i
oompanying the papers witt a message. Hal
thinki the Commodore committed graye error,"
in capturing Walker..." onthasoil of: Nicaragua ;"I
bat adds, 4 4 It is quite evident, however from 'the,
communications herewia ,transmitted, , J . that this'
was done from pure'and patriotic' motives;: and in;
the sincere conviction that be was promoting the
interests and•viixlioating, the ,honor of-hisA corm
try
: •
The President also maintains that no one' has
any rightto, complain, but Nicaragua, a right
which it is quite - certain she wilt never exeraise. ,
It does not lie in the mouth 'of her - invaders' to
complain on ker bad): In disapproving of the
centinet of Commodore Paulding, the 'President
lets it be known, that no inference must thenbe be
'drawn, as thongh he meant any the '1641
oute the neutrality laws of the 'United States. - Cu
this point he says
"This is my imperative d,uty, and I. Shall cool
tinne to perform it by all the means which the
Constitution and the lairs have placed in my pow
er. My opinion of the value and importance of
these laws corresponds entirely with that ex
pressed by Mr. Monroe in his message to Congresi
of December ,17th, 1819. That wise, prudent
and patriotic statesman says it is of The highest
importance to our national character. and indis
pensable to the morality of our citizens,, that all
violations of our neutrality laws should be pre
vented: No , door shoule be left open for the eva. t
Bien of our laivs—no opportunity afforded to any
who may be disposed to take advantage of it to
compromise the interest:or honor Of the 'nation."
Of the conduct of Walker, he says: ,
' The crime well deserves the severe punish
ment inflicted upon it by our laws. It violates
the principles of Christianity, morality and .hu
manity, held sacred by all civilized nations, and
by none more than by the people of the United
States. Disguise it as we may, such a military
expedition is an invitation to reckless and lnwless
men to enlist under the banner of any adventurer,
to rob, plunder and murder the unoffending
citi
zens of neighboring States who have never done
them harm. Itis a usurpation of the war-niaking
power which belongs alone to Congress ; and the
government, at least in the estimation' of the
world, becomes an accomplice in the Oornmission
of this crime, unless it adopts all the means neces-,
sary to prevent and to punish it. * * * *
The Avowed principle which lies at the foundation
of the law. of nations is contained in the Divine
command, " That all things whatsoever ye would
that men should do to you, do ye even so to them."
Tried by this unerring rule,, we should be severely
condemned if we obeli not use the best exertions
to arrest such expeditions against onr feeble sister
republic of Niettragua. One thing , is very certain,
that the people;never existed who would call .any
other nation to a stricter account than we should
ourselves for tolerating lawless expeditions from •
their shores omile war upon any pOrtion of our
territories. By tolerating such expeditions we,
shall soon: lose the high character which we have ,
enjoyed ever since the days of Washingtonfor the
faithful performanse. of international obligations
and duties,-and , inspire distrust against us'among
the members of the great , family of civilized no
.
tions,"
These are noble sentiments.' They accord with
the beet principles of law and hnrnanity. They
meet with a ready response front the patriot's and
tAe,Christian's heart.
One sentiment advanced by,the Preildent seems
not quite to accord with the above. This this :
error of this gallant officer consists in
exceeding his instructions, and landing his sailors
and marines in £vlcaragua, whether with or with- ,
out her consent, for the purpose of making- war
upon any military force - whatever, which li'e might
find in the country,' no matter from whence 'they
came. This - power certainly did not belong
him."
" With or xbithout her consent," expresses the ` .
matter
matter too strongly. With her consent, the officer
was morally justifiable; as fully so on Nicaragua's
soil as be would have beewon the high seas or on.
eountry's soil, in arresting the violators of
,14;.,00 lngitives from jizitiae. Walker was It,
tratitigressor. Paulding wasan - executive officer,
sentin pursuit of him and,hiddett to arrest him.:,,
His crime'wast , levying waeltgahmt a `State at,'
peace with us; and he becomes more s:criminal
the traVtlier he progresses, and our duty, as a gov•
THE PRESBYTERIAN BANNER AND ADVOCATE.
ernment, to restrain him becomes the more obli
gatory, the more manifest his wickedness became,
and the more imminent the danger to our feeble
neighbors. Our duty, in the eye of righteous
ness, ceases not with his landing and the com
mencing of his robberies and slaughters. We
may be impeded in the execution by another's
possessing the right of soil ; but that right being
granted, for the specific purpose, the duty is to
be discharged. Had then Paulding the consent
of Nicaragua? And, if not formally given, were
the circumstances such that he can be justified in
inferring it? It seems to have been clearly so.
In Congress there was a great diversity of sen
timent on the Message. The president found
ardent advocates among his political foes, and
strenuous opponents among his warm friends. It
seemed like an indication of a breaking up of
parties, preparatory to new organizations. No
vote was taken, however, and Congressmen took
their three day's rest.
, A leading thought, put forth , in opposition, to
the President, was that Walker and his men were
etnigrantsto„Nicaragua..„ It c yr,as . e.entended that
any man had a right to emigrate, and any number
of men had the right, and they , might proceed in
any numbers in company as they chose, and they
might take their arms with' them, if -theych o ose.

then are they ? Are they not pirates, robbers,

English, French, may arrest them on the ;high
seas, or, with .Nicaragua's comient, xnay follow
them on land ,and capture and execute them.

Ganges Canal was crossed, the heavy artillery
brought into position, and the way opened for
communication with the besieged under Have

17th these officers and Sir Colin Campbell met in
the Motee Mohal, after a day of the severest
street fighting. On the 20th, the women and
children so long imprisoned within the Residency
walls, and menaced with the horrors of Meerut
and Delhi, Futtebgbnr and Cawnpore, were sent
in safety, with the sick and wounded of the gar
rison and the relieving army, to the British head
quarters at Cawnpore. The details of the British
losses in this protrakted contest have not come to
hand, but they appear to have been dispropor
tionately small. Sir Colin Campbell himself re
ceived a slight wound, which, however, did not
interfere with the prosecution of his duty, and

forty wounded.

Dien—On Sabbath morning, the 20th nit., in
the 40th year of his age, Mr. Davin WILLsow,
long a member of Bethel Presbyterian church.
The deceased was long a languishing sufferer
from consumption, that slow but sure destroyer
of so many of the human family. The incipiency
of this disease made its appearance some three
or four years before it completed its work. At
times he was brought almost to the grave, and
then the Lord gave a respite. Ile seemed to re
cover, was able to attend to business, and occupy
his , place in the house of _God. ; ,But for , the last
three months his deoline was rapid, and all who
saw him had unmistakable evidence that his con_
tinuance with us would be short. Hi was re
signed to the Lord's will; :arid though at times
doubts. and , fears seemed; to distress his mind,
yet, on the whole, his faith was unwavering,' his
confidence in his. Redeemer unshaken, , his hope,
though' not' iaptnrous,' yet tWeet and. peaceful.
Dining his'long illneas,"God's:premises were the
stay anti ocimfort of his heart. We doubt not
that for die was gain. We will miss him
in the 4 elinch and society, of Which was always
an upright; peaceful, and Consistent 'member.
His surviving partner, and ther three small chil
dren, one too young to lino*a'father's love and
, •
worth, will sorely and painfully miss him. Ills
aged father,brothers, and sister, as well as many
other dear friends; will miss him. But still they
are not called to mourn as those who have ,no
hope. ...Filth , sees him tiling 'where, sorrow and'
)r,slizEirn„.ls" ) . Yr ,t c\qtP,h?..ktienl.9',lo? ,the
i l ight,syreat,iand the gasping, for. sweats, are..un

his sufferings ended. That; pivioltr ,;whom,he
lovekhas called him, in the.perldian of life up
.higher, ivhere n no.,teari are Shed, no-harassing
doubts felt f , and no hiding, of
_liod's,,,fiee.,eyer

- vremywith Tell Christians to live near to
ahrist---to follow hips closely. Tell them, to he
careful how' they oonduot themselves before t 1 e.
icsienitent, and - especially in the house of God,'
and.when:leaving it on the Sabbathday." He felt
tliatliften immense injury was done tO'the souls
