tt , ts h er A, happened to approach too near
the stove, when her dress caught fire, and

1.a,11y btu fled us to die the next day. The
day following, the funeral services were held
in the Rev. Dr. Burchard's church, of
which she was a member. An immense
concourse of people was present, including
the pupils and teachers of the Sixteenth
Ward Schools. She was a young lady of
prepossessing appearance, most exemplary
and devoted piety, and leaves behind par
ents, and little brothers and sisters, of whom
she was almost the sole earthly support. The
discourse of the pastor on the occasion, ac
companied with extracts from her journal,
was exceedingly solemn and impressive.
The moral sense of the greater part of
the community has been shocked by a scene
in a new drama, entitled, Jessie Brown, or
the Relief of Lucknow, in which a comedian
appears as a minister of the Gospel, uses
again and again the language of our Saviour,
accompanied with coarse jests, and with
lifted hands and upturned eyes addresses
God in solemn prayer, whilst the next in
stant he convulses the house with laughter.
Surely Dr. Bellows' proposed reformation of
he theatre progresses very slowly. By the
way, great doubt has been thrown on the
whole Jessie Brown story; many who profess
to be well informed on the subject deny its
truth altogether.
But the absorbing matter in this great city
at present, is the most momentous of all
subjects. Even in this busy metropolis, the
great theme of Salvation is the one about
which thousands are employed, with a degree
of intensity scarcely ever witnessed before.
To it business, and even pleasure, are in
many instances made to give place. In the
counting rooms, in the shops of the mechan
ics, along the streets, at the fireside, in the
social parties, and in the public prints, the
progress of the wonderful work is the pre
vailing topio of interest. The churches are
crowded beyond all former precedent on the
iSabbath. The weekly prayer-meetings are
thronged, and every few days some new
place of daily prayer is opened and multi
tudes congregate in it. The blessed influ
ences are recognized in the prayers, the
singing, the addresses, and in the sermons.
These day prayer•meetings continue one
hour, and east' address and prayer is not
expected to extend beyond five minutes.
Old merchants, clerks, mechanics, draymen,
laborers, the gay woman of fashion, and the
servant maid, rush to them places, to unite
in worshipping God. The secular papers
notice these things with wonder and satis
faction. Indeed only two journals of 'buy
description have shown disapprobation; they
are the High Church organ, the Churchman,
and Bennet's Herald. Christians have been
revived, and multitudes are coming to Christ.
To enumerate the churches it would be
necessary to specify almost all the Presby
terian, Congregational, Baptist, Methodist,
and Dutch Reformed churches, and not a
few of the Episcopal. And a great work of
grace is in progress among the seamen at
the different ohapels and on board different
vessels. And one pleasing feature of the
work thus far, is the absence of extrava
gances and men machinery, and a profound
conviction of the p.esenoe and power of the
Holy Spirit. Truly, the chastisements of
the last few months, and the Conventions
for prayer at Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, and
other places, have not been in vain.
PHILADELPHIA..
The Politicians of the Quaker City find
strong inducements to visit Harrisburg, just
now. Several important appointments are
yet to be filled, and this goodly city contains
not a few willing to sacrifice themselves for
their country's good, by taking upon them
selves the cares, and emoluments of office.

Dr. Durbin is using every means to
awaken the attention of the Methodist
churches to the claims of Foreign Missions,
and the increased contributions indicate
much success.
The Cedar Street .Preskyterian Church,
of which the late Dr. Ramsey was pastor,
has given a call to Mr. H. A. Smith, eon of

Revival in Leesburg.
Mn. EDITOR I desire, for, the glory of
God and the encouragement of my brethren,
to communicate what God has done for this
place.
The town and vicinity of Leesburg has,
in times past, been noted for its wickedness..
Sabbath•breaking and intemperance were
prevailing sins. Not quite two years ago
the Presbytery of Allegheny organized a lit
tle church there with ,eighteen . members.
They were supplied by Presbytery from the .
Spring till the Autumn of 1856. At that
time, sixteen months ago, I was induced to
take charge of them as stated supply. They
then numbered eighteen members, now they
have on their roll
,Jiffy four. At a commu
nion on last Sabbath nineteen additional
members were received; and, I am permiited
to say, there are a goodly number who are
still in an interesting, and inquiring state of
mind.
This work of grace commenced about the
Ist of January, in connexion with a series
of meetings and the observance of the Past
Day recommended by the Convention. Our
meetings have been most solemn and inter
esting, but there has been no special outward
manifestation of emotion, The converts are
characterized by a deep and abasing sense of
sins, and the preciousness and fullness of
Christ, as the Saviour of God's elect.
Nearly all who recently joined us were
beads of families. It was a most interesting
sight as they stood up to enter publicly into
covenant with Qod. There was the gray
headed father of some sixty years, and the
y oun g woman of sixteen, constituting the
two extremes, while the others were of all
intermediate ages. It went to our very
hearts, and made all say "it is good to be
here."
Taking everything into consideration
connexion with this little church, it is a most
promising enterprise. Both pastor and peo
ple have been very much encouraged. The
blessing of heaven seems to have rested upon
it from the beginning, and demands our
grateful acknowledgment for what the Lord
has done for us. Yours, &c.,
DAVID WAGGONER.

Revival at the Church of Lexington, Ohio.
LSX/ROTON, 0., March 2, 1858
Mn. EDITOR :-A8 the intelligence of a sinner's
repentanoe is conveyed from earth to the angels
in heaven, and they rejoice over him, it is but
right that we should convey the same Intelligence
to one another, and rejoice too. Why should an•
gels take a deeper interest in this work than our
selves? I therefore send you a very brief ac
count of what God has done for this church—
Lexington, Richland Presbytery—and is still
doing.
About thirty , days ago, in family visitation and
personal conversation with non•professors of re
ligion, I discovered that there was an interest on
the subject of religion, in the bounds of the
church, which I had never before witnessed. The
Spirit of God had commenced his work. On the
4th of February, we commenced religious Services
in the church edifice, and continued them every
night, and almost daily, for about twenty-four
days, during which time the effects of the Spirit
were visible on the large assemblies, day and
night, in reviving the graces of God's people,
and in the conviction and conversion of sinners.
The convictions of many were pungent, and con.
tinned until they indulged the hope that they
had passed from death to life, or, as they usually
expressed themselves, i 1 found Christ to be pre
cious to their souls."
As the fruits of ,this work of grace, forty have
been received into the communion of the church
on examination, and three on certificate ' • of whom
thirty are females, and thirteen males ; the eldest
seventy years old, and the youngest twelve. Of
the whole number, nineteen are heads of families.
A few are indulging a hope, among whom is a wo
man seventy years old, whose eye-balls have long
been sealed against the light of day ; but it is to
be hoped the Holy Spirit has opened the eyes of
her mind to the light of eternal day. God has
brought to hims9lf, on this occasion, the physi
cally as well as spiritually "halt and blind."
Probably not less than thirty or forty are yet more
or less concerned about their salvation. May they,
and multitudes more, be brought speedily to
Christ,
The principal means employed in this work
were, family visitation, prayer of the church, and
the plain, praotical preaching of the Gospel.
Rev. J. P. Caldwell spent eight days with me, and
preached daily with a most happy effect, and
doubtless won jewels for the orown of hie rejoic
ing. A few sermons from brother Robinson, of
Newark, and two other;
_brethren, had no less
happy effect, being accompanied by the power of
the Holy Spirit. In all the sermons delivered, but
little use was made of manuscripts, or notes—by
the write; none--and the cross of Christ was made
prominent in almost every sermon; and so visible
was its power on the mass of sinners, that when
it was known that another brother was about to
preach,-a mother in Israel would whisper to me,
"Tell him to give us the cross of Christ to-night, •
for it is this that God is making instrumental in
the salvation of souls."
"The Lord bath done great things for us,
whereof we are glad," and to him be all the praise.

Revival in the Church of Butler.
Rev. Da. MOKINNEIi•:—On lest Sabbath, the
Sacrament of the Lord's Supper was administered
in the Presbyterian church of Butler, of which
the Rev. Loyal Young is the pastor. Thirty-nine
persons were admitted to the communion of the,
church. Of these, ihirty-,flue were received on
profession of their faith, and four on certificates ,
from other churches. They were generally young
persons. One whole family of children, consist
ing of five persons, together with an inmate, were
received. From other families, four, three, two,
and one, severally. Amoug these were three` of
the pastor's children. It was, indeed, a solemn
and joyful occasion. The interest was intense:
Many hearts swelled with emotion, and many
faces were suffused with tears. The Lord has
been in their midst,:and is manifestly still there by
his Spirit. Rev. Dr. Elliott; of the Theological
Seminary; the Rev. Samna' Williams, of Centre
ville; and Mr. John C. Irwin, a student from the
Theological Seminary, assisted the pastor, and
participated in the exercises on the occasion.

Washington,
Affairs in Mak are assuming a decided char-
Rotor. The Legislature met, Dec. 14th. Heber
C. Kimball was chosen President of the Senate,
and John Taylor, Speaker of the House: On the
next day, Brigham Young sent is his Annual•
Message. He speaks of progress in agriculture,
manufactures, and education. He censures the
Federal GoVernment for its neglect of the Indian
Tribes. He complains sadly of the withdrawing,
by the Post Office Departnient, of the contract to
carry the malls. He then maligns and threatens
the Government, and asks Legislative co-opera
tion. We:give a few extracts:
"Reckless office-holders amidece-aeekere hare

their poisoned fangs so deeply buried in the vitals
of the body politic, and are so thoroughly organ
ized ana drilled in the defence and attack of the
spoils, while the tradesmen, the mechanics, the
husbandmen and the humble laborers—the real
virtue and sound intelligence of the Republic—
are so busily occupied in their daily toil, and,
except here and there a few, are so little aware
of the dire portent of the future, and of the
measures necessary for insuring public tranquili
ty, that it is a discouraging task to attempt ar
resting the turbid current of official corruption
that would sweep every vestige of truth, virtue,
and human rights from our unhappy country;
hut the crimsoned satellites of plunder, oppression,
and usurpation, may rest assured that every friend
of liberty will resist their destructive progress, and
stand fast by the Constitution and all laws con
formable therewith."
And again:
"It must needs be that President Buchanan,
if he has ordered an army to Utah as reported—
for he has not officially notified me of such a
movement by his order—has at length succumbed,
either of choice or through being overcome, to
the cruel and nefarious counsels of those enemies,
and is endeavoring to carry out a tgurpation of
power which of right only belongs to the people, by
appointing civil officers known to be justly ob
jectionable to freemen, and sending a so-called
army under mere color of law, to force those of
ficers upon ns at the point of the bayonet, and to
form a nucleus for the collection and protection
of every gambler, out-throat, --, and scoun.
drel who may choose to follow in their train.
Such a treasonable system of operations will never
be endured, nor.even countenanced by any - parson
possessed of the least spark of patriotism and
love of constitutional liberty."
" Under these circumstances Ireepeetfully suggest,
that you take such measures as your enlightened
judgment may dictate to insure pubhe tranquility,
and protect, preserve, and perpetuate inviolate
those inalienable constitutional rights which have
descended to us a rich legacy from our forefa
thers." .
t' No one has denied, or wishes to deny, the
right of the Government to send its troops when,
where, and as it pleases, so it is but done clearly
within the authorities -and limitations of the
Constitittion ' 'and for the stlfety and welfare of
the people ; but when it sends them clearly with
out the pale of those authorities and limitations,
unconstitutionally to oppress the people, as is
the_ case. in
,the army. vent to 'Utah,
it commits a treason against itself, which commands
the resistance of all good men, or freedoin will de
part our nation."
To all this, the Legislature respond as the
GO - Verner desired.
On the 80th of December, at Camp Scott, the
Grand Jury of the United States District Pourt,
returned an indictment for treason against the
Mormon leaders, based upon the issue of Brig
ham's declaration of war, and Daniel H. Wells'
orders to the Mormons to burn tint grass, to sur
prise the troops, to blockade the roads, &c. The
parties' names in the indictment, are as , follows :
Brigham. Young, Heber 0. Kimball, Daniel 11.
Wells, John Taylor, George D. Grant, Lot Smith,
&c., &c.
The specific charges against these parties, cov
er the whole ground of Mormon outrages—the
proclamation of war, the orders of Wells, con
spiracies and combinations—the indicated parties
being described as persons " owing allegiance and
fidelity to the United States, not weighing the
duty of their said allegiance, but wickedly devis
ing• and intending the peace and tranquility of
the said United States to disturb, and to prevent
the execution of the laws thereof within the said
Territory."
It is hardly to be supposed that the National
Executive will be deterred, by this bravado, from
the accomplishing of the work it has begun, nor
that the country will withhold the aid needed in
reducing the lawless to order.
The defeat of the Army Bill in the Senate, and
the slow progress made toward authorizing the
employment of volunteers, and the manifest need
of a greatly increased force against the Morinons,
afford occasion, in prospect, for the active em
ployment of all the United States Troops. The
troops in Kansas, except three 'companies, are
hence ordered to Utah. A mule train was to leave
Fort Leavenworth the 10th inst. •
The condition of Me:Cleo deeply exercises the .
Government at Washington, and somewhat agi
tates ,politicians. She is in debt bopelissly, if
left' - to herself. She is distracted ; and good
government, springing from herself, is proved to
be an impossibility. Her people have not the
moral principle, the education, the magnanimity,
nor the patriotism to form either just or stable
social institution% Foreign influence, which shall
be irresistibly controlling, seems to be, to her, an
indispensable.• She has population in sufficient
numbers. She has much fine soil, and, in a large
part of her territory, a good, climate, and is very
rich in mineral wealth. But there is no fixed
,ness of rule, no righteousness in the administra
tion of laws, no security .in the possession of
property. And hence there is no development of
her resources.
She is deeply in debt to the United States, and
to ,Great Britain. How shall .these debts be
paid? By a sale of territory to us? We do not
want it. It would increase the wrangling be.
tween the North and the South. Shall she sell to
Great Britain.? This -we would not permit.
Shall England establish a Protectorate, ensuring
a fixed and righteous government, and developing
her resources ? This also we would hot permit.
Shall we play "dog in the manger " neither do,
nor permit others to do ? This may not be long
prwitica ble. What then ? Some of the great
'ones of our nation say, assume the Protectorate
ourselves. Send back and sustain Comonforta
whom the people elected President; gairison the
principal places with our own soldiers; sanction
good laws which may have been, or shall be, en
acted by their Legislatures ; be economical but
strong in All this, and let the, expenses be de
frayed by Mexican revenues. The revenue is
now some $12,000,000, but mostly wasted. It
might be increased and duly appropriated•
Eight millions of this would be adequate to al /
needful expenses, civil-and military,, and the
residua would be , sufficient to pay interest on all
the debts of the country, and ,to diminish the;
Under, such , a government there would
be safety, and hence industry and enterprise,
trade and immigration, public 'improvements and
the Wing ;of ;capital. ,
Such is a sketch of suggestions. It looks
pretty; and even the London Timeehas intimated
that the English are.perfeetly willing that Amer
icans shall control the government, if they, the
English; have the benefit of a well regulated
trade, and the payment of d ebts secured.
The Slave Trade.
A few papers in the South haVe, for two or
three years past, advocated, though sparingly, a
renewal of the Slave Trade. The only Legisla
ture which has touched the subject as yet, so far
as occurs. to us jast now, is that of South Caro
lina. That body, early in its last session, ap
pointed a Committee which reported favorably to
a renewal, but there was a very able minority
report, and this was adopted.
The matter, however, is not likely to sleep in
noiseless silence. It would be strange if it did, in a
country where there is sash , entire freedom of
speeoh,such a variety of interest,and such reckless
nese as to be means by which personal and party
endear° sought to be attained. The Richmond Whig
we see extensively quoted, as an earnest and recent
advocate of the suggested measure. It speaks of
the loss of laborers in Virginia, by the large and
`increasing sales of Negroes to the far Swath, and
fears that soon theri will not be enough left to
raise the tobaccp and wheat which a healthful
state of agriculture will demand; and it sees
;great evils to result It says
44 The cons i eqienoes, social and political, of thii
price - 4' oiratiniiii with ut interrOptiOnfor a fevr
decades. are palpable and inevitable. The char
acter of the population will undergo an entire
change. The few Negroes remaining will he found
in the bands of n few rich men ; and some hun
gry demagogue, like Wise, will not be wanting to
raise the cry of aristocrats, and the whole insti
tution will be swept from the statute-book. In
the meantime, the abstraction of labor will be
followed by diminished products; and in the
transition from Negroes to Yankees, the whole
real property of the Commonwealth will experi
ence a disastrous depreciation."
The Whig's fears of a diminution in the nine
of property are not likely to be realized. The
immigration of a few ten.thousand Pennsylvania
and other Northern farmers and mechanics, a
work which has already commenced, will greatly
improve trade, and keep up and increase the
value of land. But the Whig has a different
thought. It says again :
" The preventive remedy is 'some new source
of labor to supply this increasing defielency. The
alternate lies between Yankees and Negroes.
We must resign ourselves to see our lands under
go a ruinous depreciation for the want of suffi
cient labor to till them, and then be appropriated
by the Yankees; or we must augment the num
ber of Negroes, by direct importation from Afri
ca, SO as to supply every white man in the State
with enough for his own use. Large slave•hold
era may and do object to this expedient, on the
ground, that it will depreciate the value of the
slaves they now own ; but they will be more than
compensated for this depreciation, by the en
hanced value of their lands. The question, how
ever, is not one, of choice, but necessity.. If they
would maintain the institution of Slavery, they
must popularize it, by reidiring it eheapiatid'ac
cessible to every white man; and if they would
not render their laud worthless, they must have
laborers to cultivate it,"
The superior adaptation of a climate farther
South, to the Negro, and the fact that he can be
worked to an ,advantage far greater in the culti
vation of sugar and cotton, than in the 2` aising
corn and wheat, have been:largely drawing ttway
the black population from Maryland, Virginia,
Kentucky, and Missouri ; while the additional
fact that these States , are favorable to white la
bor, is inducing-Northerners to make them , their
home. This exodus of the blacks, and in-moving
of 'the whites, thus in operatiort already, Will in
crease in geometrical ratio, as - the demand for the
productions of the far South becomes greater, and,
as the new West grows more distant, and becomes
a less desirable home for the vast swarms contin.
tray issuing from the Northern hive, and for the
additional multitddes who are continually arriv
ing here from over populated Europe:
This is the natural course of events. A few
decades wilt see the States named filled with a
dense population, hailing for themselves or their
maestri', from the North. They may not abolish
slaVery. There may be, for generations, a few
slaves, as is the case in Delaware ; but, as there,
the main body of the people will be white, and a
large proportion of the owners of the soil will
cultivate their broad acres with their own hands,
and by their hired help. We do not ourselves em.
pect to see the full effulgence of the day of which
we speak ; but we regard it as approaching, and
as being a part of " manifest dealing." Political
aspirants may produce turmoil ; but no efforts at
the.renewal of the alave trade, nor at disunion, can
prevent the consummation. It is sure as is the
operation of nature's laws. •

We have never known any, other medicine win
as large a share•of public confidence, in so 'short
a time as this has 'done. It has , not been more
than a year since we, first heard of it, and it now
stands at the head of all remedies of the kind.
We have never used any of it ourselves, haiing

where - she continued to reside till the time of her
death. ,Her husband, Mr. John M'Clelland, died
February, 1847. The deceased, it is believed,
in early life made a, public profession of religion
in the Presbyterian Church, and through a long
life adorned that profession by a walk and con
versation suck as becometh the Gospel; taking a
deep and prayerful interest in the advancement
of the Redeemer's. kingdom. Her health for
several years bad been feeble and declining. Her
last sickness was of but few days duration; and
as she drew near the last conflict, her oft
repeated prayer was, " Come, Lord JetillS, come
quickly."
Life's duty done, as sinks the clay,
Light frOm its load the spirit flies,
While heaven and, earth contbine to say,
How blest the righteouswhen he dies."
COMMUNICATED.
DIND-Feb. 14th, in the 77th year of her age,
MrB. CHRISTIAN RAYS, relict of the late Richard
Hays,
of Lycoming County, Ps., and daughter of
John Ralston, formerly of Northampton Co., Pa.
Another shock, fully ripe, has been gathered
into the garner of the Lord. Another mother
in Israel has gone to her eternal home. Mrs. Hays
was one of the earliest settlers of Lycoming valley,;
where she spent a long and useful life, beloved
and respected 'by all, and evil spoken of by none.
In earlylife, she connected with the Lycoming
Presbyterian church, on certificate of membership
by **thin and early training In the church of
the Irish eettlement, and an examination. Until'
the clOse of life, she maintained a walk con
siiteiti With he iiroft*on. In het family, she'
was all that is expressed by the terms, wife and
mother; fulfilling the duties -which accompany
those interesting relations, es in the sight of God,
with all faithfulness and honesty. It was de
lightful for friends to sit around her hospitable
board, and receive instruction in the simple, bum
ble, enlightening, elevating, and comforting prin
ciples of the Christian religion. In her the needy
always found a friend to the best of her ability ;
for whilst she said,. "Be ye warmed and be ye
fed," the ready hand was extended to afford the
necessary relief. No counsel could be more ju
dicious, or lead to better results, than the advice
she was always ready to give when solicited ; and
yet no one was more careful of intrusion upon
the rights and privileges of others. Her faith
was strictly Calviniatic, and her practice con
formed in every respect to that pure system, con
straining to more and more conformity to the
image of her God. The tongue and action were
always the index of the heart, and hence no one
could reasonably doubt the sincerity of her affec
tion and regard. Till the close of her life, her
faith was staid on Jesus, as the only hope of a
poor, perishing sinner, and she has gone, as all
whq knew her believe, to see him as he is, and to
live for ever in his smile. Her family, and rela
tives, and neighbors, have all of them lost a dear,
and honest, devoted friend ; but they do not
Mourn as thoselhatitave no hope; for they feel,
" Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from
henceforth ; Yea,"saith the Spirit, that they may
rest from their labors, and their worki do folloW
tbem." Her works and labors of love have not
gone before to prepare the way ; but they follow
after, and insure her a large reward. With oth
ers, whose robes are washed and made white in
the blood of the Lamb, she now sings the song of
":redeeming love."
"They were mortal, too, like ns ;
Ahl when we like them shall die,
May our Souls, translated thus,
Triumph, reign and shine on high."
L.C.
Drao—On the 22d ult., near Burnt Cabins,
Fulton County, Pa., Miss MARY Woman", in the
82d year of her age.
Only a few days interval had elapsed since the
death of her sister, Mrs. Cree. : And as death
haewithin a fortnight taken a brother and sister
from her, she, too, looked for a speedy departure.
She lived a Christian life, and died in prospect of
a blessed resurrection. That Saviour, who was
precious to her in her journey through life, was
stil more precious to her, as she came down to
the gates of death.

A. S. HAYDEN. • '
Two reasons will chiefly account for the great /moms of
this volume :
That. The Character of the Work. It presents a new
and greatly improved system of notation. In it much
that is abatruce and difficult in this delightful science le so
simplidad, that months are made equal .to, . years in the
common way of learning the practice'of musical art; a fast
sufficiently proven by the attestations of scone of teachers
and performers who have tested the system and given the
work its great pomilarity and constantly increasing sale.
Second The Quality and Style of the filmic. Many new
pieces, destined to please asilong as music lasts, may be
found on its pages and also many of the old and tried
melodies, hallowed nom associated recollections of sanc
tuary delights, and far more welcome to the heart of the
worshipper than many frequently, substituted for them.
The Publishers may add that the, mechanical execution
of the work is superior altogether to the majority of Bast.
