The subject of direct Trade with Liver
,pool, by means of steam vessels, is still much
agitated, To the taunts, thrown out by
auwe of the New York papers, that there is
nu probability that such ,an ,enterprise would
Prove profitable, it is replied that the steam
ships plying between that port and Liverpool
hare never been remunerative; that the
Steamers have lost largely; and that
eveu the Cunard Line, notwithstanding the
iwwense government patronage, has never
been pr„fitable.
Great gratification is express' d at the
passage of the bill for the Sale of the Re
m alning State Works, to the Sunbury and
Erie Rolroad, from the completion of which
this city hopes to profit greatly in the trade
with the North and North West.

young men, coming to reside in the city,
letters of introduction to the Association,
pro nising that its aid will be extended in
surrounding them with proper influences.
fhis is well and kind; but every pastor
should also give every young man that leaves
his congregation for the cities, a letter to
80.ec of the pastors or Sessions, that he may
be wade .to feel himself the subject of
Christian sympathy and watchful care at
once. Many a promising youth might be
saved from a career of vice, if this course
was always taken. For the temptations of
a large city are indescribably dangerous to
the young and inexperienced from the quiet
and retirement of the country.
The sudden Death of Mr. Tray, emi
tautly peaceful and rejoining as it was, has
produced a profound sensation throughout
the community. The funeral sermon was
preached by his father, Dr. Tyng, of New
York, on last Sabbath evening to the largest
audience that ever filled Concert Hall, from
1 Sam. i: 27, 28. The effect of a sermon
from such a text, by such a man, and on
such an occasion, upon a sympathizing audi•
mum may be well imagined, but not easily
described.

REV DAVID M 0 KIN NEE, D. D —Dear
Brusher:--" In the midst of deserved wrath,
God has remembered us in mercy." But a
few months ago, the Presbyterian church of
this place was all but deserted by its friends.
As a last resort, with scarce a probability of
success, they extended a unan,meus call to
the Rev. J S. Grimes, of Dayton, Ohio, who,
we believe, was sent of God, as a chosen in•
stromentality, through whom he has been
phased to show forth the exceeding riches
of his manifold grace, to this people. On the
flirt Sibbath of February, when he entered
upon his pastoral duties in this church, the
Angel of the Covenant began to trouble the
tors In connexion with the elders and
myself, be began the werk of family visite
tine, to ascertain the special condition and
immediate wants of the people. A series of
meetings were then commenced, and kept
up every evening of the week, for four
weeks, when the pastor was obliged to close
the services, to attend the meeting of Presby
tery. The attendance and interest increased
until the close, and deep solemnity marked
every service The order of exercises ob
served was, first, a plain doctrinal discourse,
made praotioal and pungent in its applioa•
tinn Second, a prayer-meeting, interspersed
with short exhortations, in which br.ither
Lane and myself participated with the pas
tor And third, an inquiry meeting for the
anxii:us, at which the people of God re
mained. These services were conducted
without any of that noise and animal excite
moot oftentimes connected with revivals of
religion Brother Grimes preached the
blessed Gospel of Christ in all its simplicity,
pungency, ard poweri laboring faithlully,
by day and by night, in exhorting and en
treating sinners to flee from the wrath to
come ; and his labors have been owned and
abundantly blessed of (god. More than a
hundred have been awakened, and deeply
exercised in spirit. Many, hitherto careless
and unconctrued, were brought to cry to
God for mercy This work of God, seem
ingly, began with the teachers of the Bab.
bath Schi,ol, when the pungent appeal of
the pastor came home to each one, " Have
you personally addressed each member of
your class and importunately urged them to
give their hearts to God ?" At the close of
the service, 4 , ne of the teachers addressed
the pastor, saying, "O, sir, hew can I ever
enter this school again to teach others, until
my own heart is changed ? 0, I cannot do
it, for I feel, as you. say, it will be only
heaping coals of fire on their heads and
mice
During the pry of the meeting, a
strong opposition was manifested, in many
instances, by parents, against their children
w,iting upon the services of the sanctuary.
In some cases, they were pmitively f.,rbid
den to enter the church in one partioul.r
ibalanee, a child of unbelieving parents, not
wishing to dimobey their express command,
stood outside of the church under the pulpit
window, for several hours, during one of the
coldest and most inclement nights of the
season. The opposition) o f the parents hay.

relity of the pastor, she united with the

Resolved, That it is with much regret we

I Resolved, That we deem it due thus pub
lioly to testify to his fervent zeal and untir•
ing energy during the past Winter, at a
time when there were visible displays of
God's presence in our series of wettings.
Then his labors were signally blessed to the
conversion of many BOWS to God, and the
graces of some were deepened and revived.
Resolved That his social intercourse was
profitable and agreeable, and his bearing,
publicly and privately, was kind, dignified,
and altogether becoming the ministry of
Jesus Christ. We would therefore tender
our warmest` attachment to him, and our
fervent prayers shall be for his present and
eternal welfare, and that God would open a
wide field of usefulness for him wherever
his providence may direct, and that he may
be long spared as a watchman of Zion, to
sound the Gospel trumpet, that sinners may
hear.

of the way, or the recognizances were forfeited.

conrcientiontly express a favorable one, I would frankly
tell you so, and decline saying anything about it; for I am
chary of complimente, and cannot violate troth in order to

at which Moline of the pupils mould be wasted, or spent
to little profit, commits a social wrong; whilst he who calls
deserted attention to a incritori.Ous school, content a social
lament.
