According to this, there are in the United States, excepting California, and excluding a small class of retailers in the large cities, 204,061 busi. ne;s urns or houses. This would give a stem for every 25 families, or for every 125 per , nns, estimating the population at 25,- 000,000 There have been lost by 337 swiudlirg and akconding debtors, $5,222, 500; nud by 512 firms, which will , pay not hi n g, their confidential debts absorbing every thing, $20,309,000.

On the evening of the 12th 'inst., the . Rev. Dr. Bethune delivered a lecture before the Historical Society, on « Common Sense;" the discourse was enlivened by a plentiful supply of sparkling wit and sena men t. The same evening, Dr. Orestes A. Brown son discoursed on the " Popular Objections to Catholicity," before one of the largest audiences ever assembled in the Aoademy of kluge, in compliance with an invitation by a number of Catholic gentlemen. The oh jealous of which he treated were, that Catholleity was unfavorable to individuality of character, that it debases the intellect and leads to spperstition, and that it .de grades human nature. These he answered in a manner entirely satisfactory to himself, at least. In discussing the last, he quietly assumed that the entire civilization of Ea rope and America owed its origin to the Roman Catholic religion ! For some time Brownson has showed himself inclined to , be restive in his present position. But on this occasion the Roman Catholic clergy were out in full force, and at the close, Bishop Hughes oomplimented both the speaker and audience, and was loudly cheered. At the late meeting of the "Statistical Section " of the Geoyriaphical Society, it was said, in a report offered, that the day was not far distant, at the present rate of progress, when one in every four of the in habitants of the great State of New York would be paupers. It was also reported that, according to the most approved data, there were, in the United States, eleven millions thirty two thousand four, hundred and fourteen above the age of twenty, of whom eighty-four thousand and sixty-six were drunkards; and that of these, five thousand one hundred and twelve, ornue in every one hundred and thirty:one- of the population over the age of twenty, died every year , from drunkenness. At the'same meeting, the Rev. Messrs. Thompson and Abbott spoke of the comparative' merits of the public and private schools, giving a ,de aided preference for the former, in point.of, the appliances in the way of school room,, instruments, Sm., and also of ability on the part of the teachers. This is entirely differ ent from the opinion entertained in many ; planes, but the facts presented by the speak ers cannot be easily controverted. PHILADELPHIA Mr. Thomas Atlibone, who has, of late, acquired an unenviable notoriety, because, of the charges made against him in connex ion with the Bank of Pennsylvania, has re turned, with his , family, from Europe, confront, as It is said, his accusers, and to acquit himself of blame., , The lee.Dealere and ioe-consumers`are beginning to fear the want of a supply for the nest Summer. Usually, hundreds of persons are engaged at this season of the year, in housing ioe ; but as yet, neither thi Schuylkill nor its tributaries have given any promise of being frozen over at all during the present Winter. Since the elevation of Bishop Ty•iter to' the Episcopate of ,Peunsylvania, he has done much to promote the interests of his Church. Lately he has opened a training , school for the ministry, in the'Aeademy of the Protestant Episcopal Church, in this city, under the superintendence of the Rev. G. &lien Hare, D. D., for the purpose of increasing the number of pions, working, and faithful ministers in the Diocese. • The Passenger Railroad, on Fifth and Sixth streets, has beentopened for use.

For the Presbyterian Banner and Advocate. Revival at Upper Ten Mile, Pa. BAOTWER M'KINNEY IMO great pleasure in communicating to you the foot that the church of Upper Ten Mile is'again enjoying a precious season of spiritual: re freshing, The. first Sabbath after the. Con vention at Pittsburgh, the Pastoral Letter was read from the pulpit, and seemed'to make a deep impression. At the close of the service, the church, on consultation,. agreed to pray in concert for a revival of God's work of grace, each evening of that week, and . also to observe Tuesday of the following week as a day of fasting, humilia tion and prayer, to the same end. An ex,- tiaordinary spirit of prayer came down upon God's people. Believers were enabled to take hold on God, and the general feeling seemed to be, "We will not let thee go ex cept thou bless us " This concert in prayer Waß found to be an excellent preparation for, the fast; and though the weather proved ' stormy, and but few of the unconverted were present, the members of the church generally attended, and we had a solemn and delightful meeting. On the two fol. I lowing days there was a general religious visitation of the congregation, the pastor and ' elders going two and two, in three compa nies, on We service, holding prayer-meet, inga in different localities,' on teach evening. The usual services preliminary to a com munion season followed, and the Sacrametit of the Lord's Supper was administered on Sabbath, Brother Kerr preaching ,and as sisting on that occasion. It was a day that will not soon he forgotten by those who ; were present, Seldom, if ever, has it been my lot to witness such a Sacramental season —so tender, so melting, so full of Christian love and spiritual jay, and where Jesus was to manifestly present, by his Spirit, in 'the hearts of both' and el DIMS. . V PTY, solemn, and in some instances, as the event proved, saving impressions were made upon the nkluds of the unconverted. At the close of the service, a vote was taken, and, with one voice, the church expressed the desire, (in which not a few of the uncon verted joined,) that the meeting should be continued. The feeling of all hearts was kindred to that of the ancient church, at the great Passover in the beginning of liezekiah's reign, when, after having kept " the feast seven days with great gladness," "the whole assembly took counsel to keep other seven days," and "there was great, joy in JeruSalem. '-2. Chron. xxx : 21-26. Public services were kept up, for the most part twice daily, for seventeen days. Some fifteen or more individuals, during the meet ing, professed hope in Christ, a portion of whom, however, belonged to families not connected with our Church. Three family altars Were reared. Kind and valuable as sistance was rendered by brothers Brownson,, Kerr, and M'Carrell, to whom the cordial thanks of pastor'and people are due, and for whose tender and faithful labors, through the Meiling of God,' some precious souls will have occasion to rejoice in eternity. God's people have been generally and greatly refreshed and strengthened by this precious work of graoe, and •they feel that they can go on their way rejoicing, filled with fresh zeal and courage. Many of the unconverted are still solemnly impressed with a sense of eternal realities, and some are anxiously inquiring, "What . must we do to be saved ? "Why should the work cease?" We trust that it will not; but that, through the wrestling importunity and faithful labors of the children of God, it will go forward till " a great multitude are obedient to the faith." Yours in Christian bonds, E. C. WINES Western Correspondence. Da. MOKINNWIC:-I apprised your readers a short time since, that it was in contemplation to organize a Presbyterian ohurch at Galvy, a thrive ing town of some fifteen hundred inhabitants in Henry COunty, Illinois. This service has been performed by a COmmittee of ihb Preebytery of Rook River, and a little band of eleven pereona were duly organized into a church on the 12th of the present month. Revs. W. C. Mason and W. W. Harsha being said Committee. William Ayers, Esq ; for many years an elder in the neighboring church of 'Andover, in the same county, was chnien elder. Their prospects under the blessing of God may be regarded as encouraging. Brother 3. M. Marshall, under whose labors, as a missionary, these persons have been !mind out and brought to constitute themselves a church of Christ, continues to labor with them one-half his time. He is a. young man of indefatigable indus try, untiring energy and fine attainments. The Lord has certainly blessed his labors in this field, and if hie life and health be Spared, we doubt not as to his future usefulness. Galvy is a young railroad town at a point upon the Chicago and Burlington Railroad, where it is crossed by another from the Eastern part of Illi nois to strike the Mississippi at New Boston, some , thirty miles below Rock Island. This location is highly favorable to a future growth-. The other half of brother.ltt's time is occupied in a field of labor, some eighteen miles West of Galay, called' Heathland, where, located in an exceedingly. fertile section of country, he has a church of some sixty or seventy members. .With in the bounds of this Heathland charge is the new town ,of Leoti, which is brother M.'s Post Office addreis. A very encouraging revival of interest upon the subject of religion, has 'existed for some time past in the North Henderson church; in Merger County, Illinois. Brother John H. Nevius, :.the pastor, writes that fourteen have already, as the fruit, been received into the church upon the pro fession of their faith, and many more are anxious ly inquiring the way of life. These are mostly young persons, and are thus led to give the dew of their youth to the Lard. May the work con tinue. - A somewhat striking illustration of the variety' found in Western society, Was seen at ..a. prayer Meeting a few evenings since, when .there were 'representations from Prussia; Norway, Africa, England,and from seven different American States. finelt a gathering is not unlike the assemblage, upon the day of Pentecost, where " devout men were present . " out of every nation under heaven" who heard the Apostles speak in their own tongues the wonderful works of God. The Lord is thus throWing upon our shores, and causing b mingle with ns in all our gaiherings, persons from every -part of the : earth that , we may more distinctly learn the depravity of the entire human family, and be prepared to do them , good whenever ,we may find them. And that there is need of 4his, will be seen in the fact, as stated by the police reports of .a Western city, that of two thousand -three hundred and eighteen crimes of all kinds committed during the past year one thousand' nine hundred nnd forty-four, or all but three hen.- .dred and seventy-four were committed by persons of foreign birth. Of these, one thousand and five Were from Ireland, and but fifty-three from Scot land; a significant circumstance, and illustrative oP the influence upon the masses of the antago nistic systems of Protesbntism and. Popecy. The United Presbyterian of the West speaks, as` follows of the progress made in the work of union between the Associate and Associate Reforined Churches, to which your readers will remember I referred in previous letters. ""How is the union coming on ? What are the prospects ? These questions are sometimes put • to us, and though men do not ascribe 'to us the name and praise of high flown Unionists, we suppose we , may use our privilege as journalists to answer -them as well as wemm. . " But we have nothing very flattering to report. In some localities, where the 'Union fever, or something which men took for it, 'once ran very , high, the prospect now is not very inviting. • The cause drags. In the language of a correspondent, the Churches may be joined togeth.er, but they will not be united. Harm has been done by too much action, aid too much anxiety. He that beliwr eth will not make haste,' areTiiords which cow' ,1 tain, an important , lesson. The difficulty is , to know what are the proper times and occasions for practicing it, and it is often a real difficulty. In some other plaees, men say the Union is an actual fact. The united Church, they say, is in actual existence. Virtually, they must mean, otherwise they contradict the basis which affirms, that no person oan belong to two Churches at the same time. The separate Synods, if we mistake not, i; are to meet -next May, which implies that the original Churches will remain in their separate , state till that time, we should think." - Thus it would appear that a Union is not yet e' consummated, thougo the Synodical action of the two Churches would seem to have implied it. ,We hope, however, that two bodies having so little to divide them, will soon be one. The -editor of the Christian Times, the Baptist paper published at Chicago, presented recently some important thoughts upon the " Theology of Hymns." Ile says: " It is a matter of more bn portance than some may have considered, that hyratii should embody a sound theology. Taught to ohildren among their first lessons, sung in s the, great congregation,' and in the andel prayer—. meeting, at times when hearts are peculiarly open • to impression; entertained with confidence, as an utterance of Christian truth, not less than .of Christian feeling, they have a power which should 'be need with proper discretion and judgment" ' He then cites some instances from hymns which are favorites in some communities, and with some denbminations, to which he takes exception, and pretty clearly proves that some hymn writers have embodied into their sacred songs sentiments which will not bear the test of criticism. The j fact is,•the independency of some Churches has been extended to the adoption of collections of hymns, and it has no doubt worked to the intro duction of much trash, and what is more to be lamented, much poison. There is no need for , this. As to our own Church there should .be thorough review of !this matter by certain mope. tent authors, who should carefully revise_ eier:4 line and every word claiming to be a Sclipturail song for the sanctuary, and know that it accordr with the revealed will of God. But so long 8;7, Ward Beecher, and any one who pleases; ottr 4 "get up" collections of hymns, for the very pur pose, perhaps, of making them a vehicle of (tom vagary in doctrine, there will be much to oom plain of. I rejoice that theeditor of the Time has spoken out upon this important subject. W hope his warning will do good: -We have Stand and Psalms and Hymns, which have been for e. many years before the Christian public that they may be regarded as fairly installed in publVf , favor.

The investigating of Congressional Corrup tion, is producing some considerable excitement in the House. The existence of the vile thing can hardly be doubted but its detection and ex posure is no easy matter. Citizens should hold their representatives to the strictest moral ac countability. Even a reasonable suspicion against a Corgresman, or a member of a State Legis lature, should cause him to be dropped by bis constituents. And those members of a public body who will make proper efforts to purge it, should be had in honor. Captain Chatard, of the Saratoga, who permitted Walker and his men to land in Nicaragua, and for this was ordered home, has reached Washing ton.- Proceedings against him are not yet ini tiated. The affair of Paulding brings to him much ad miration' and many compliments. A motion has been made, in the Senate, to present him with a sword, as a National testimonial of approbation. But all is not approval. Some still strongly con demn his sot. A debate of much interest is likely to occur.
