THEOLOGICAL SEMINARIES The Seminaries at Princeton, Allegheny, Danville, and Prince Edward, sent in en couraging reports. Our own at Allegheny, is not the least flourishing. The blessing of God upon ft has been very great. The overture from the Synod of Chicago, respecting the North• Western effort, was considered as not putting the subject fully into the hands of the Assembly, and no ac tion was taken. It is in the hands of the Synods still. AN ASSEMBLY'S COMMENTARY ON THE BIBLE. A Presbyterian Commentary, on the whole Bible, authorized, produced and sanctioned by the General Assembly, has been a favoi ite topic with Dr. R J. Breekinridge. Sotne twenty years ego he brought the subjeot for ward, but it then received very little favor. Now he again introduced it, in a formal paper and with a definite plan. Some good speech es were made in its behalf, .but these, with all the tact and eloquence of the mover, could not induce the Assembly to commit itself. Conservative men desired some time to de- liberate, to examine plans, to consider the practicability of the suggestion, and the de sirableness, and to compare views with oth ers. Action was hence deferred to the next Assembly. This decision was wise. The opinion of the Church, on a new subject, eau never be had on its first presentation on the floor of the House. It is well that a matter should be there offered, its invariance presented, and interest elicited. Bat a decision, ordi narily, should be postponed. There should be discussion in the journals, and in' the low er Courts. Members who have had the stib jeet before them for' months, and who are possessed of the sentiments of their constit uents, are the proper , persons to decide. Had the brethren who determined upon a North- Western Seminary, discussed the eubjeot for a year in the public prints, instead of pre senting a Plan and Constitution, " cut and dry," to the Synods, adapted to enforoe irrt. mediate action; or had the Synods resisted the pressure, and deferred action for a year, the injury of division and distraction, and the mortification of a failure, would have been avoided. The paper of Dr. Breokinridge, and a sketch of the argument in the Assembly, as reported by the Witness, appears <in the proceedings, in other columns. Editorial views, and likely those of correspondents also, will be presented in due time. THE NEW SCHOOL SOUTH- 7 NO UNION Where there is, not a union in sentiment, there should be. none in. Church organiza tion. Only those who are like.minded, should band together. Harmony is essen tial to effective co .operation. How can two walk together who are not agreed ? The Banner and Advocate has, several times, presented strong points of difference, from their own deolarations, between the brethren of the New School goutii, and Old School Presbyterians. For us to consent to a union would be utter folly. It would be to ex change peace for strife, and joy for sorrow. Dr. Read and Mr. Marshall, N. S. Dele gates, attended our meeting. Their letter to the Assembly, announcing their appoint ment and presence, was responded to by. the designating of Drs. Van Rensselaer and Palmer, and Mr. W. M. Cunningham, to meet them in conference. To this Commit tee they submitted their instructions, which were made a sine qua non, calling upon us 1 to repudiate our peculiarities and to embrace theirs. These were submitted to the House, and, being utterly inadmissible, the union was declined unanimously. Not a voice, was raised in behalf of the alliance tendered. Not a vote cast in its favor. This hearty and entire cordiality in our body, is indicative of its present homogeneity, and promises long continued harmony and efficiency. The paper adopted by the Assembly, in response to that tendered to it, is worthy of perusal. It is commended to consideration. It sets the door wide open, for all who are like trti ,, ded with us, to enter in; and, on their giving us satisfactory evidence that they are , so minded, it bids them welcome. It settles the question of our cherished policy of indi vidual examination, in order to an entrance; and of an honest, hearty, and full reception of our Standards, on the part of all whom we will recognize as teachers in our church es. In declining the union with our breth ren, we do not unohurch them. We do not. ignore them as Christians. We but say : Brethren, you and we are not agreed, and a union is undesirable. The Lord bless them and us. Monday, May 17, 1858. The session of the Assembly now draws toward a close, and much anxiety is mini fested to do up business rapidly. Many. members talk of leaving this evening. There may be adequate cause for their de parture, but it should be something really important which would induce the repre sentative of a Presbytery to leave his work While it is yet undone. True, it may be well done by others, but possibly the re tiring member's counsel, or . his vote, or both,. might be highly useful—might pre vent an evil, or might carry a useful meas. ure. All should stay a reasonable time. moat of the important business presented is, howLvQr, already transaoted„and it is hoped that no new matter will be sprung .upon a thin house. The Assembly is yet full, and will be till the p APPEAL PROM T RE SYNOD OF NEW JERSEY. Most of Saturday was ~ occuffied with an - - r Appeal from a decision 'of the Synod of EDITORIAL CRANGE.—Rev.

Whether there was necessity for this ex treme action, whether it was done wisely or unwisely, oppressively or kindly, does not yet appear; and, as we said, the papers pre sented are so defective about the origin of the matter as to embarrass the Assembly in judg ing. Immense disorder is shown, in the progress of events, but the beginning dwells in obscurity. But we wish that all such matters, if "offences" must come, could be kept at home. The Presbytery is always the best judge, and, even if they should err, it is immensely better to suffer wrong, than to disturb the whole Church by appeals, and publish scandal throughout the entire land. We greatly wish that the Constitution of our Church were so modified that there could be an appeal, or complaint, to only one Superior Court; that is, that a case origina ting in the session could be carried no farther than the. Presbytery, and one orig inating in the Presbytery must stop in the Synod. The ends of justice would be greatly promoted thereby, and the Assembly would be saved much time and trouble, and the reputation of the body escape a great damage. One exoeption, and only one, might be admitted ; which would be, in the case of a minister deposed for heterodoxy. ASSOCIATE REFORMED SYNOD OF TLIE SOUTH The prospeot of an amalgamation with this excellent body of orthodox brethren, brightens but slowly. They are one with us in doctrine and order, and in worship also, except in their exclusive use of a lit eral version of =the Psalms of David as their Book of Praise. Our Committee of Con ference was, however, continued and en larged. Their Delegate, Rev. J. M. Young, made a very favorable impression on the As sembly. They number seventy-two minis ters, and about as many churches..- • THE STATE 'OF RELIGION A deeply interesting report on the state of religion was presented by Rev. Lerby J. Halsey, D.D., and adopted. It will be duly published. The Assembly order that it shall be read in all the churches. Seventy Presbyteries reported revivals, and many others spoke of peace, unity, attention to ordinances, and awakened desire. May all this be but the beginning of the outpouring of God's Spirit, hastening on the latter day, when all people shall be willingly and glo riously under Messiah's reign I After the adoption of the report, the Assembly united in 'a song of praise, with prayer and thanks giving. SYSTEMATIC BENEVOLENCE The report on Systematic Benevolence was prepared and read by Dr. D. X. Junkin. It is able and instructive, and will be given to the churches. Progress is being made in the good work. Pastors are the leaders therein. Elders are the coadjutors. The whole congregation are, or should be, fellow laborers. Rich and poor, parents and chil• dren, bond and free, every soul that has a hope in Christ, or that would attain to a hope, should do something in and for Christ's cause. Let pastors well instruct the people, and well lead them, and there will be great results. Yesterday was the season of sacred rest and social worship. The Evangelical church es were mainly occupied by members of the Assembly. -In the afternoon, the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper was administered, un der the direction of the Assembly, in the First church. A large number of the brethren, and many of the Chrlstians of the city, participated. ' The P• M. was chosen for the ordinance,, because that ,then the churches generally are- not open, and all, ministers and people, might attend. But still, for the members of the. Assembly, it was not the most favorable hour. Many were lodged at great distances from the church, and were unwilling to patronize either the omnibus or the railear on the Sabbath, and, the day being oppressively warm, a few were hence obliged to decline a second long walk in the sun, and were thus deprived of the enjoyment of the oommu. nion service. To-day the weather continues warm, and the house is worried with judicial business. In such a case, admitting the righteousness of an appellant's cause as probable, it is still difficult to banish the thought, " Why do ye not rather suffer wrong?" Two Fathers in the Church Gone to their Best. The Rev. William Wylie, D. D., died in Wheeling, Va., on Sabbath morning, the 9th inst., at the age of eighty-five. Dr. Wylie was well known in the early history of the Western Church, and continued to preach two or three times a week until past eighty years of age, and then only ceased on account of a fall, which deprived bim of the use of , his limbs. But even after that, he was frequently carried to the sanctuary in his chair, from which he addressed the au dience with great ability and ardor. His psstoral labors extended over a good part of Western Pennsylvania and Eastern Ohio. At the Synodical Copvention, held in Pitts burgh last Fdll, an extract from a letter written by him concerning the objects of the meeting, was read, which affected many hearts. The Rev. H. P. Goodrich, D. R., died at his residence in Carondelet, near Bt. Louis, No., on the evening of the 17th inst. He occupied, during his lifetime, a high position in the Church as a scholar and teacher, and was once a Professor in one of our Theo logical Seminaries. PRESBYTERIAN BANNER AND ADVOCATE. THE Sabbath Selool Literature. Too much care cannot be given to the preparation and selection of the books to be introduced into our Sabbath Schools. A friend, whose judgment is worthy of the highest confidence, writes the following note concerning a new volume, about to be issued by the American Sunday School Union : " Fact is as attractive as fiction, and is of much higher moral value." Such is the first sentence of the preface of a volume, ab=ut to be issued by the American Sunday School Union, entitled, " Historical Tales for Young Protestants." The writer has had the proof•sbeets kindly furnished him. The work is a handsome 12mo. volume of one hundred and eighty-nine pages. It is gotten up with much care. We have read several chapters, and they are capital. It was Archbishop Tillotson,, perhaps, who said, " Two things have greatly promoted and maintained the Protestant interest, viz., catechizing, and the history of the Martyrs." Let our young people learn the price paid for all their liberties. These truthful nar ratives must have a powerful effect, and we predict for them a wide circulation. Let the first edition be' widely scattered, and the second will , soon be called for: Revivals: STEUBENVILLE, OHIO.—The First Pres• byterian church continues to have the pres ence and power of the Spirit. At the Corn reunion, last Sabbath , week, twenty-six more were added on examination, and twelve by certificate; making a.total addition of eigh t)-five einee January,- of whom sixty-nine were on examination. The _pastor writes: "This work, succeeding years 'of distressing declension, and immediately, following two successive communion seasons, at which not one:individual was added, constrains many • of us to exclaim, 'Great and marvelous are thy works, Lord God,Almighty Almighty, just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints!" NASHVILLE, TENN.—The result of the late gracious reviving, has been an addition of fifty, on examination, _to Dr. Edgar's church, EASTERN SUMMAR,Y. BOSTON AND NEW ENGLAND. We lately noticed that Dr. Adams had, upon invitation of the pastor, repeated his sermon on The Reasonableness of Future Puniehment before the congregation of the Rev. Thomas Starr King, which is Unitarian, although Mr. King is' said to be a Universalist, and was formerly settled over a Universalist Society. Since then, Mr. King has preached and repeated a sermon on the "Lan guage of Jesus Concerning Eternal Punishment." And notice has been -given that he will email:ate the subject in a discourse on the " Unreasonable ness of the Doctrine of Endless punishment for the Sins of this Life." These discourses are in• tended to be replies to the sermon of Dr. Adams and will soon be published. Some time ago a Union Clerical Prayer Meeting was formed, in which some of the Evangelical denominations united with Universalists and Uni te:rid:es. The project did not find ranch - favor With the more thorough going orthodox Congre gationalists, but -it has aone far enough to show that it was ill advieed, and that this!movemen t will, in the end, be pernicious. Whiit possible good can result to Evangelical Christianity from devotional meetings, where-the Universalist and Unitarian—adhering-with the utmost tenacity to their errors—preside and conduct the exercises in turn with the others? The evil effects are`al ready appearing, and the end is not yet. • It has been customary to look upon the,Divin ity School at Cambridge, as the fountain whence flowed the advocates and defenders of American Unitarianism; but actual examination reveals the fact that only one third of the Unitarian ed ucated ministers received their professional train ing at that place. Thirteen of them have come from Andover Theological Seminary; thirty from Brown University, Rhoda Island ; and more than a dozen from Bowdoin College, Maine. The Shower of Divine Grace has not yet ceased to fall, although the - same publicity is not given to` the progress of the work of grace, as some time ago, More than five hundred have been al ready'added to the different Orthodox Congrega tional churches in this city. And the Congrega tionalist estimates the number of conversions in the ohnrches of this - order throughout New Eng land,;during the past Winter, at nine thousand .five hundred. At the same time the results upon communities have been most happy. Scoffing lips have been closed; the profane swearer has ceased from his oaths; the drunkard has left his cup ; the Sabbath day is kept holy by those who formerly remembered it not; and' the degraded and abandoned have forsaken their wickedness. New England mourns the loss of another who has done gpod service to the cause of truth. The Rev. Bennet Tyler, D. D., died suddenly at East Windsor Hill, on the evening of the 14th inst., at the age of seventy-four. .In his day he was a man of note; After graduating at Yale, he preached some years in his native county, Litch field, whence be was called to the Presidency of Dartmouth College. • From this he went to Port land, Maine, to occupy the pulpit once filled by the saintly Payson. And.in 1834 be accepted a professorship in Theology, and the Presidency in the Theological Seminary, lately, instituted at East Windsor, Conn., to counteract the errors of the New Haven School under the lead of the late Dr. Taylor, where he remained Until the time of his death. The controversy in whioh he and Dr. Taylor were the leaders made his name known throughout the country. He was an able preach er, and a logical and vigorous thinker. NEW YORK But few cities have suffered More, in a pecuni ary way,-from the incompetency or Dishonesty of its Officials, than this. The present Mayor thinks that it has actually been swindled out of $8,000,- 000, in various ways, within a few years ! Prop erty holders are becoming alarmed, and all intel ligent and order-loving citizens are becoming aroused because of the iniquities that have been so long practised Upon them. Corporations can not watch too closely those to whom its. interests are committed; the, temptations thrown in their way are often too great to be successfully re sisted. The Lager Beer trade is carried on to an enor mous extent, and at a late trial of a dealer charged with selling intoxicating drinks on •the Sabbath, the accounts given of the amount drunk en in a single day by some individuals, were almost beyond belief- It is certain, that whether the article be intoxicating or not, in the sense in which the term is generally employed, it is used by many to a most bestial extent.

Every few days the public is startled with some new de velopment of forfeited integrity. The latest is that of a Wall Street broker, Henry Dwight, who has been charged with fraud in connexion• with the Chicago, Alton, and St. Louis Railroad Co., that in amount and boldness, exceeds that of the notorious Schuyler. The well known Prank Forrester, whose real name was H. W. Herbert, the son of a clergyman of the Established Churoh in England, notwith standing his fine literary attainments, became the devotee of sinful pleasures, and in course of time, grew weary of life, which he terminated by his own hands a. few days ago. The way of the transgressor is hard." Contrast the end of this man with that of An ma G. Phelps, Tr., who died suddenly at his resi dence In this city, on the evening, of the 18th inst., from disease of the heart. His father, well known in commercial, benevolent, and relig ious circles, , died some four years ago, and but few Christian merchants leave behind them a son in every way qualified to fill the places made va cant, as was he who has gone to his reward at the early age of forty. Well do we remember the tears that coursed down his cheeks, when he took the place so long occupied by his father, as Pres ident of the New York Colonization Society, when Dr. Bethune spoke so eloquently of Ahe benevo lence and Christian virtues. of the late presiding officer. Like his father, Mr. Phelps was an hum ble and devo:4ed , Christian, as well as an enter. prising and successful merchant, and of.-great benevolence toward Colonization, Education, Do mestic and Foreign Missions, and indeed in aid of every good work. For several years he has giv en $l,OOO per annum to Foreign 'Missions, and to other ,objects "in. like proportion. The funeral services *ere held in the Mercer 'Street Presby terian church, of which he was a member, in the presene,e of a large audience. Well-did he fill the place left vacant by his father. Who will now take his? • The leaders of the minority at the late Tract Anniversary, held a meeting last week at Dr. Cheever's ehmch. No definite object 'was pro posed, but the action , of the Tract Sooiety was reviewed by the Rei. Drs. Cheever, Thompson, and Tyng, and the Rei. R. W. Clark, and 'John Jays, Esq., in characteristic speeches. A farewell meeting was held at Dr. Adams' church, on the occasion of the return of lice. Dr. Schauffler to Turkey. It is now twenty.five,years since the Dr. first went out as a, missionary to that country. The results of the, work within that time, have been most cheering. The missionary force in that country now, is thirty-three mission ary stations, and fifty-eight out stations ; sixty three missionaries from the United • States, and sixty-nine female assistants; thirty-seven church es and one hundred and twenty-five native :pastors and assistants; and three Seminaries in which young men are educated for the ministry. The Bible has also been translated foi• eixty%millions, who speak the Arabic language. Though the Union Prayer-Meetings are not so well attended as formerly, the state of the ehurChes is most encouraging. And pastors and people have set themselves to work in great earn est in their own congregations, so that , there nev , er has been, a time of deeper ,intereit in the preaching of the Gospel than now.
