daily ; but Mr. Hecker, the proprietor, has a
deep pocket and a determined will in t.tie,
use of its contents. The present awakened
interest on the subject of religion is not at
all to the liking of the Churchman, and
every opportunity has been seized to deal it.
a blow. In this our contemporary has aete'd
with Universalists and Unitarians.
The Rev. E. H. Chapin, the popular
Universalist preacher, in a late discourse,
without ridiculing the present religious
movement, expressed the opinion that no
actual good would result from it, and that it
must be necessarily short-lived. The Rev.
Dr. Bellows, noted for his advocacy of the
theatre, in a late discourse, exhorted the
Unitarians to hold fast to their faith, and
looking down from the serene heights of
their moral vantage.ground upon this and
all temporary excitements, to envy not the
means of building up the Church, which, for
their parts, they had long ago discarded and
outgrown. This is certainly very near the
sublimity of self-complacency itself.
In the meantime there is No Evidence of
Decline in the work of grace that has been
begun so auspiciously. The churches on
the Sabbath and the prayer-meetings during
the week are as crowded as ever, and new
cases of conversion are continually occurring,
even among old and hardened offenders, as
in the case of the fighting "Awful Gardi
ner." Business men visiting the city attend
these meetings with great interest, and oc
casionally thrill the people with a plain re.
eital of what has been doing in the places
whence they came. Among other re•
markable things, is a daily prayer-meeting,
held in Burton's theatre, which has been
leased by the Young Men's Christian Asso
ciation for a limited time, for this purpose.
Multitudes throng there, as if some great
actor were about to have a "benefit," but a
deep and solemn earnestness - pervades all the
services. This is not the first time, in the
history of this city, that a theatre has been
converted into a church. In 1831, the Old
Chatham Street theatre, a haunt of obscenity
and vice, was purchased by a committee,
and transformed into a church, where Mr.
Finney, the well known revivalist of former
days, preached for,. three years, until the
erection of the Broadway Tabernacle.
Many of the churches are receiving Large
Accessions to their membership. Last Sab
bath week the Presbyterian church of which
the Rev. Dr. Burchard is pastor, received
one hundred and thirteen persons on profes
sion of faith.
The Daily Press, for the most part, con
tinues to observe and commend every advance
in the way of life, while it calls attention to
the impropriety, of many of the anecdotes
related in some of the meeting 9 by well
meaning, but misjudging persons; and es
specially to the impropriety of pushing for
ward so prominently some who have been,
for only a few days, removed from a course
of vice and crimeoind especially the impro
priety of telegraphing the sayings and doings
of snob persons all 'over the country. The
Times says truly

this great land tens 4nd fifties of thousands
of men and women are putting to themselves

Revival at Slateliok and Freeport.
REV. DAVID McKmtway, D. D.—Deaf
Brother have thought for some days,
that perhaps I ought to make known,
through the medium of your paper, the Oa
cious visitation which we have recently ex-
perieneed in the churches of Slatelick and
Freeport. Immediately after our Conven
tion in Pittsburgh, I commenced the work
of pastoral visitation in both my congrega
tions,- consisting of about one hundred and
fifteen or one hundred and twenty families.
In my public ministrations, also, I endeav
ored to carry out the suggestions of that
excellent letter published by the Conven•
tion. 1 thought I could perceive more of
the spirit of prayer evinced by some of my
dear people, than I had ever witnessed be
fore. We appointed a .series of meetings
in both churches, to take place during the
last week of February and the first week in
March.
Brother Young, of Butler, preached for
us four days in Slatelick, commencing on
Monday evening. On Wednesday night
the Holy Spirit was poured out upon us in
great power. The meetings were continued
with unabated interest, for ten days, during
which time brethren Leeson, of Leechburg,
and Fredericks, of the Seminary, preached
with great acceptance and profit. There
are, at this time, thirty six inquirers, thirty
of whom have obtained a hope of an interest
in the Lord Jesus Christ, by faith.
Our meetings commenced at. Freeport on
Sabbath evening, the last of February. A
marked solemnity pervaded the congrega
tion, from the very beginning. Brother
Hall, of Brady's Bend, preached for four
days and nights, to most attentive and eon
tinually increasing congregations. Brethren
Leeson, Caldwell, and Moore, of the, West
ern Theological Seminary, and Harvey, of
the Baptist Church, lent us valuable aid.
There are now fifteen inquirers, ten of whom
have obtained a hope in Christ.. We have
also the best of reason to believe that there
are many others inquiring " what they must
do to be saved," who have not formally met
with us for prayer and vonversation.
One happy effect of this outpouring of the
Holy Spirit has been, that it has brought
the ,ministry and the people of the various
Evangelical denominations together, to.pray
with and for one another; and for the pro
gress of the good work of the Lord, all over
our land.
" The Lord hath done great things for us,
whereof we are glad," and we desire to as
cribe to his name all the praise.

The symptoms of last week indicate a defeat
of the Administration on the• vexed question of
the Lecompton Constitzition. Mr. Crittenden, of
Kentucky, once a Whig, now an American in
politics, but claiming to\be a yea/ Southern Dem
ocrat, made last week, or of the most powerful
speeches delivered in th t Senate. He took the
ground that the true intex{usts of the South were
connected with a strictly j st and righteous com
pliance with the will of th people of the States,
and that hence the Lecompt m Constitution should
not be enforced upon Kansa . He contended that
it was most manifest that a aet majority of the
people were opposed to th t instrument. He
regarded it as past all hope, Z hat Kansas could
be a slave State, and why co mit the injustice
of forcing a law upon her, when no benefit could
result? It would be an injury to her, and, recoil
in injury upon those who should'do the deed.
Mr. Toombs, of Georgia, urged , the importance
of admitting Kansas under the Cdpstitution sent
up under the forms of law. He Would have no
information, as to the will of the people, other
wise. He acknowledged that it was'unlikely that
Kansas would continue a slave State; but he
insisted upen her being admitted as auch, as an
acknowledgment of the right of so admitting hew
States.
Mr. Bell, of Tennessee, sustained the views of
Mr. Crittenden, and responded to Mr. Toombs.
A multitude of Senators have spoken, on either
side, many of them but reiterating what had
been often uttered.
On Monday, Mr. Douglas spoke. There was a

healthy growth of hair. It has been so esteemed
in allages of the world, and among all nations,
savage and civilized. Hence, the- Indian brave
regards the scalp of his enemy as his greatest

The great matters of interest, just now, in for
eign 'affairs, are the course to be adopted by the
new Ministry in England, and the influence upon
France, of the British political spirit. The gov
ernment measures, in England, are likely to un
dergo but little change. Lord Derby seems to
have mainly adopted the policy of Lord 'Pal
merston, tho Ugh he has not pledged himself Very
strongly nor very definitely to the measures in
dicated.
Parliament was in session on the Ist inst.
The House of Commons, after the transaction
of some formalities, adjourned to the 12th inst.
In the House of Lords, the Earl of Derby read
his inaugural ministerial speech, giving an in
sight into his intended policy. After stating the
grounds upon which he had undertaken office,
and the' * difficulties which beset him, be glanced
at the state of the army with reference to the In
dian war, and said there was yet a most respect-.
able numerical force remaining within the United
Kingdom. He had no doubt that the exertions
of Sir Colin Campbell, and of the troops under
his command, would lead to a successful result,
and when the mutiny was fully suppressed, it
would be the duty of the government to under.
take the task of pacifying and tranquilizing the
empire. He then referred to the Chinese war,
and expressed his satisfaction, notwithstanding
he condemned the cause of the war, at the suc.
oess which had attended the British arms.
He added, now that Canton had fallen, it would
be the duty of the government to make, with tie
least possible delay, a safe and honorable peace,
so that the commerce between the country and
China might be re-established. He then adverted
to the relations of the governmentwith France.
and urged the necessity of remaining on friendly
terms. He insisted on the importance to France
and Europe of the Emperor's life, and indignant.
ly denounced the atrocious attempt to assassi
nate him.
He made great allowance for the indignation
displayed :by the French people; nevertheless,
be did not believe that the addresses from the
French colonels gave a true representation of the
feeling of the French army. From what he knew
of the Emperor, be felt satisfied that it was his
sincere wish to keep on terms of amity with
England.
The Foreign Secretary (Lord Malmesbnry) was
preparing a reply to Count Walewski's dispatch,
which he believed would satisfy the public feel
ing; and there was nothing which would pre
vent the government from proceeding with the
conspiracy bill, although further notion would
depend on the reply from France to Lord Malmee
bury's dispatch.
With regard to the policy of the government,
it was impossible, having been called to office
suddenly, and not at the commencement of the
session, to bring forward any programme.
On the subject 9f the government of India, he
thought the time not opportune for any change,
but in deference to the vote of tbe House of Com
mons, he was prepared to yield, and a modified
bill as suggested by Lord Ellenborough, would be
presented.
In regard to Parliamentary reform, his. own
opinion was, that no alteration was required, but
he nevertheless thought that some modification
and amendment might be made to suit the con
veniences and wants of the people. - All be could
promise, however, was, that during the .recess the
government would earnestly direct their efforts to
the preparation of a bill, which would be intro
duced at the'neat session.
In conoluston, he expressed the hope that when
he retired from office, whether the period for
which he held it was long or short, he would not
be found to have left the country in a worse posi
tion than he found it,
garbs Granville and Clarendon defended the
late government, and the House adjourned till
the 16th'.
The papers are occupied in criticising Lord
Derby's speech.
The Times says it was all anticipated, and that
so long as he does exactly what Lord Palmerston
would have done, bad he not forfeited his place
by that one •omission, be may be tolerated; but
the moment he shows a will and game of his own,
it is easy to see the result.
The Morning Post urges that Lord Derby not
only takes the position, but the policy arid the
measures and sentiments of Palmerston, as an
heir takes an inheritance.
The Daily News describes Lord Derby's policy
on the Conspiracy bill and the Indian bill, as
weak and temporizing, and adds that the weakest
and worst part of his speech was that in which
he refused to redeem outstanding pledges,-which
each and all of hislhree predecessors had given
on, thellubjeet of, an elective reform.
It is also confidently stated that Lord dowley
will continue in his present position as Minister
at Paris, owing to his intimate acquainonoe with
matters to be considered, shortly, by the Paris
conference.
The London Star says the country is to be agi
tated by moans of a Parliamentary committee.
which is being formed to organize an opposition
to any conspiracy bill which may be introduced
by Lord Derby.
The Paris correspondent of the London Times
Pays: It is stated that Lord Malmesbury has al
ready answered Count Walewski's dispatch in a
tone and spirit becoming a British minister. It
expresses a desire to cultivate the best relations
with France, and to remain in alliance with her,
but declares that the zight.of lissylurn shall be
maintained intact.

DlED—January 6th, 1858, Mr. Wir.nrAst
WiL
SON, aged 42 years, , 11 months, and' 26 days.
This is the first time the writer has been called
upon to record so many deaths in one family, in
so short a time., Three times, within eight
months, has death visited this afflicted household.
Mr. Wilson has been called to mourn, first the
loss of his wife, then his infant child,
.and lastly
his brother, to whom he was greatly attached.
But he 'f sorrows not, even as others, which have
no hope." 'His loss was doubtless their rgain.
When death came, they sweetly, fell isieep,,as we
trust, to wake up to a blessed intmortality.
Mrs. Wilson ' came with'' her husband and
brother•in-law to Illinois, in September 1856,
front Clifton, Green County, Ohio. It was there
she first gaie her heart to God,' and herself to
his service by profession, under the ministerial
care-of Rev. Moses, Russell: She lived to adorn
the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Chri i it, by a meek
and holy life, and died in the triumphs of its
faith. •
DLED-10n Sitirdafrnorning, December-19th.

months,- and 28 days. ,
The. -.deceased •was born in Cumberland, now
Perry County, Pa., June 21E4, 1781. He con
nected himself .with the Presbyterian Church-, at
an early age. When the separation in that
Church took place, was foUnd with the• Old
He was elected and ordained a Ruling
Elder in that dhurph; which office he held, with
much Satisfaction 'to the Church,.. for about
twenty.sermi years in> the same congregation.
Re etalgratedlo the State of Itliaois, is March,
1855, and settled' in Be Kalb County, where he
connected himself with the Reformed Presbyte
rian `chuiraiiL of SerricTauk, in said• county, in
which congregation he was a consistent and be
loved Member, until he was called upon to join
the Ohnrch triumphant. ' ,
It was the writer's privilege to be with lum
close his eyes after death; and truly may we
say, " Blessed are the dead which die in the
Lord, from henceforth ; yea, saith the Spirit, that
they' may rest from their labors; and their works
, „
do follow them." *****
Dmn- - -At' French Grove, 111., November 28th,
1857;11rs. Maim WYCOFF, aged nearly 80 years,
after several t years' confinement to her room,
from something like paralysis.
This mother ; in Israel came . to her grave in
a fall age, like a shook of corn come lt in i its
season," when fully ripe. Her consistent life,
and all. her intereouse with others, clearly mani
fested that she 'was fullyfriik for the heavenly
granary. To = her aged companion, who still
lingers around the gates of Zion,- where his
bodily strength yet permits- him to repair, ahe
often spoke of that "heavenly inheritance,"
where‘to pain 'orsigkinsrever comes. With pat.
his last illness, to witness his last breath, and
tience she waited the time of her Master's
coming. When the summons did come, she
sweetly fell asleep in Jesus' arm's.
We pay n tribute to her memory, that otherA
may follow her example. She early gave herself
to the Lord's service, in New Jersey, under the
pastoral care of the late Rev. John Hanna.
Coming with her husband to Illinois when the
country was new, she endured many privations;
yet she forgot nt.t her Saviour. She lived with
Christ, and her death was peacefully sweet.
DlED—Near Miillinburgb, Pa., on the 24th ult.,
Mr. Jamas Slllol , lTOff, aged 74 years and 8 months.
He had for many years been a communicant in
the Presbyterian Church. During a protracted
sickness, he uniformily expreised full con&dence
of his interest in the atonement of the Lord
Jesus Christ.
DlED—March 14th, 1868, after a lingering ill
nes, Satan Ennis, daughter of Noah A., and
and Mary Calhoun, aged 10 years and a few days.
This is the second member of this family that
death has removed, in less than a year and a
month. They*ere both 'children of the covenant.
We believe the bereaved parents can say, as the
pious Shans.mite did. a it is well."

When what we now deplore ,
Shall rise in„full, immortal prime,
And bloom to fade no more." G.

tell you so, and decline saying anything about it; for I am
chary of compliments, and cannot violate truth in order to

at which the time Of the pupils would be wasted, or spent
to little profit, commits a social wrong; whilst he who calls
deserved attention to . a meritorious school, confers a social
3 am, therefore, free to say, that with the locality, ap

satisfied. Your location is beautiful, healthful, and cone.
Blest; your buildings, spacious, comfortable, and well
adapted; your neighborhood intelligent, moral, and exempt
from temptations for youth.. • I deemed your assistants cs•

wore highly creditable. And what impressed me as peen

• The constant progress and visible improvement of my

The attention yon and your very excellent tady con

Your two assistants are gentlemen of excellent attain•
