For the present season, no great stringency is
anticipated in the Money Market, for the supply
promises to be equal to the demand, at low rates.
The Dry• Goods business is about over for the
Spring, and there is but little speculative move
ment in any directio.n.
In this great city, one is never safe from the
snares laid for the unwary. A concern has been
in existence for some time, styled " Smith's City
Express Post," which did a considerable amount of
business, but at last the discovery has been made
that it is altogether unreliable, and that letters
containing money, or other articles of value,
never reach their destination through this chan
nel. The authorities are endeavoring to bring
the proprietors to receive the reward of their
deeds,
Barnum is agaih before the public, having sat
isfied the claims of creditors, and is making ar
rangements for the importation of a celebrated
Operatic Troupe from Europe, at great expense.
The ruling passion of former days has not died
out in his bosom ; he still looks upon the public
as his dupes, and is as ready as ever to profit at
their expense and boast of it afterwards, as in the
case of the alleged Negro Nurse of Washington,
and the Fremont Woolly Horse, to say nothing of
Tom Thumb and various other enterprises.
Commodore Vanderbilt has had his patriotism
aroused in behalf of the American steamship en
terprise, and has given notice that he will soon
run a weekly line of steamers to Europe, to re
trieve the honor of the American Marine abroad.
The doings of the British Cruirsra in the Gulf of
Mexico, have been the subject of much remark in
commercial circles for the last few days ; and not
a few fiery spirits are looking forward to the pos
sibility of a collision with the mother country,
as a most desirable consummation. But it is not
at all probable that their expectations will be re
alized, or that they will be called to perform
deeds of noble daring on the tented field or ,4 on
the rolling deep," to avenge the, injuries of an
insulted flag.
Ex- President Monroe died in this city, poor,
and his remains have lain to this day in the vault
of a private family.. Bat Virginia has asked per
mission to carry the bones of one of her distin
guishid eons to her capital, that she may honor
them with a fitting monument. The request has
been granted, and the removal will soon take
place.
The Sabbath Movement is making decided pro
gress, This is owing no doubt, in great part, to
the cooperation of responsible laymen and the
city authorities, along with the ministrations of
the clergy. Indeed, the effects of the late revival
may have aided greatly in preparing the way for
this work, even among those who may still be
strangers to the power of grace on their hearts.
For it cannot be doubted that many reputable
men of the world exhibit more than usual serious
ness, and that even many wicked and abandoned
have some consciousness of the presence and power
of that God, whom they so grievously offend.
The crying of the Sabbath newspapers has been
stopped, and the consequence has been a quiet
Sabbath, such as has not been experienced for
many years.
The Inebriate Aaylum has at last found a loca
tion In Binghampton, the people of which have
donated two hundred and fifty acres of land val
ued at $26,000 to the object. The corner stone
of the buildings will be laid in June. The dis
cussion of the propriety of such an institution
awakened great attention throughout the State,
and much liberaliti willbe expected in putting it
into successful operation. But while endeavoring
to repair the ruins of drunkenness, unceasing
efforts are, to be made to remove the cause, a more
than Herculean work.
Bishop AfarJuane has been making applications
to the benevolent of his denomination for aid in
the completion of the new buildings at Kenyon
College, Ohio. This institution is more prosper
ous as to students and religious character than at
any previous period of its historX, and' cones.
quently Its patrons have the greater encourage
ment to come to its aid in the time of need.
To - close his life in quiet and retirement does
not seem to have been appointed for the noted
Rev. S. H. Cox, .I),D. The Doctorate still clings
to him, notwithstanding the fact that he styled
such titles aemi-lunarfardela, by way of express.
iog his contempt for them. A few years ago he
resigned his pastoral charge in Brooklyn and
retired to a picturesque rural retreat near Owego,
N. Y., called by him 4, Vesper Cliff," expecting
to end his days in retirement amid the quiet
beauties of nature ; but soon he is at the head of
Ingham University, laboring with might and main
for its success. And now he is called to the pas.
torate of the Spring Street Presbyterian church
in this city, where he will probably soon be labor
ing in his own characteristic way as in days of
yore.
The Fulton Street day Prayer-Meeting is to be
continued throughout the year, and is now recog

ance, even now, is very large, and the results are
cheering.
PHILADELPHIA
Warned. iby the past, the people of this city
dread any I thing approaching in the smallest
degree to a riot. Therefore considerable appre
hensions were entertained that an Unfortunate
Collision between some of the police and a German
Military Company returning from the celebration
of a German festival, might lead to the result so
much dreaded. But the promptness and wisdom
of the Mayor restored quiet, and allayed appre
hension.
The _episcopal Convention of the State of Penn
sylvania, was in session in this city last week.
The greater matter of interest before that body
was the election of an assistant Bishop, on account
of the extent of the diocese and the impaired
health of Bishop Potter. Both parties, the High
and Low Church, were mustered,in full strength,
each anxious to succeed in electing its own
candidate. Previous to the election, the salary,
after much discussion, was fixed at $3,500
per annum, to be raised by an assessment of
six per cent. to every congregation in the State,
on the salary paid the pastor of such congre.
gation, but in no case to exceed thirty-sevezr
and a half cents to each communicant. The
salary of Bishop Potter is $4,000 and traveling
expenses paid. From the first, the leading candi
dates were the Rev. Dr. Bowman, of Lancaster,
the choice of the High Church, and the Rev. Dr.
Vinton, of Boston, the choice of the Low Church,
though several others were voted for. At length
after sixteen ballots, Dr. Bowman was elected by
a mej ority of a very few votes.
.The Religious Interest continues to make most
decided advances among the 'firemen. As many
as eight or ten prayer•meetings, in as many ea
gine houses, are maintained among them.
An Association has been fornied, called: The
Philadelphia IlliniBterial Union, to inclittle ministers
of all Evangelical ohurches in this city, who sign
the constitutinn. The object is the cultivation of
fraternal feeling among the members. The meet
ings will be held.„on the first Tuesday. , Of, each
month at 10 o'clock A. M. ; and nothing of Ai.' sea
tarian or political character is to be introdped.
Tho session of each meeting is lithited to ohe
and a half. After a protracted delete as to the
exact meaning of the term "Evangelical," it was
determined that what is generally known as the
Apostles' Creed, should be the basis of union.
Certainly this basis cannot he charged with de
nominational exclusiveness.

distrust that I took upon me this honorable and mcstiabori
one office. •I came here from the most distant West to meet
others from the North, the Bast, and the South. Now the
hour for parting has some. We will once more lift up our
voices in a hymn of praise, we will approach the Throne of
Grace, and then separate, and go to our distant homes, and
to our several fields of labor—some to the mountains, some
to the valleys, and some to the places beyond the seas.
Wherever we may go, we shall carry with us the grateful
remembrance of this blessed re-union, and whether we may
make our sepulchre on the mountain tops, in the smiling
garden, on the desolate path, or in the boom of the ocean,
we part with the hope of a blessed meeting at the last in
mansions prepared by our Saviour in hie Father's house.
If, in presiding over your deliberations, I have wounded
or done injustice to any brother, / beg him to forgive me.
I thank God for the presence of so many in this house, whose
gray hairs have given dignity to our assemblage, and pledges
that all should be done with a serious desire to advance the
kingdom of Christ. Bear with me while I say that wherever
we go, we should remember always that we are representa

Father in Heaven.

The recent aggressions upon American vessels,
on alleged suspicion of being engaged in the slave
trade, have excited great attention among men of
all parties. The report of the Committee on
Foreign Relations, in the Senate, concerning this
matter, takes high ground. The Committee say
that instead of accepting a simple disclaimer of
intent, as hitherto, we should adopt such meas
ures as will effectually pat an end to the outrages
forever. They offer resolutions, declaring that
American ships under our flag remain under our
jurisdiction, and that any molestation or visita
tion of them is an infraction of our sovereignty ;
that theee 11'1:greasier's demand such unequivocal'
explanation from Great Britain as will prevent
their recurrence, and that the action of the Ex
ecutive be approved and such future legislation
granted as circumstances may require.
The Ocean Mail Appropriation bill was passed

and the tremendous rush from all parts of
the British possessions toward the gold re
gions. The mines extend over a great expanse
of country, and reach across the lineainto Ameri

granted, and five cutters, filled with marines, left
the Jamestown for the shore. Kinney and his
party finally surrendered to Capt. Kennedy, and
were sent to Aspinwall in a British steamer.

Ladies and Gentlemen.
We would call your attention to the advertise
ment of Prof. 0. J. Wood's Hair Reetorative,
whieh appears in the columns of our present
number.
From our long acquaintance with the proprie•
tor, and with numerous individuals who have used
his preparation , with perfect success for the last
two years, we feel no hesitation in recommending
the article as superior to any other preparations
new in use for the same purpose, viz.:• for restor.
ing gray hair to its original color, a sure and
perfect cure for baldness, and a, never failing
preventive for the falling of the hair.
It is decidedly the best and most popular in use
for beautifying, preserving, restoring and strength
ening the hair, relieving diseases of the skin, and
removing sourff, dandruff, and all eruptions and
feverish heat from the scalp
We speak in relation to the above from what we
know, having been personally acquainted with
numerous persons who have used the Restorative
for the above purposes with the most gratifying
results.
It is not often we notices patent medicine ; in
deed, we think we have ne‘er puffed one before ;
but Prof. Wood's Hair Restoratiie is something
so superior -to most of the preparations of the
day, that we cannot forbear asking the attention
of our readers to. it. —Cathodic Vindicator.

Dun—On the 2d of May in Lost Creek Valley,
Major WILLIAn SHARON, a Ruling Elder in the
Presbyterian church of Mitßintown and Lost
Creek.
He was a man very amiable, useful, and
respected in all the relations of life ; faithful and
conscientious in the performance of its duties.
Though his death be a great loss to his family, to
the community, 'and to the Church, yet we doubt
not it was unspeakable gain to himself. A con
versation becoming the Gospel of Christ, is the
best evidence of faith in Christ. M.A.
DrßD—Near Connellsville, April 22d, Mr. JOHN
M. Cour, aged about 50 years.
Mr. C. was a native of Germany, whence he
removed in 1833, arriving in Baltimore June 2d
of the same year. His first location in the land
of his adoption was in the region in which he
spent his last days, where he married in 1836.
From being a Roman Catholic, he united with
the Methodist Protestant Church in 1838, and
after a few years, transferred his relations to the
Presbyterian Church, in whose communion be
died. He was a man of real worth. Prudent, of
keen discernment, and of a cast of mind readily
adapting itself to the habits of thought of his .
adopted home, his views were regarded 'with a
respect not often paid to one occupying a similar
position. His religious feelings were his greatest
satisfaction, and surviving friends can cherish
the hope.that to him death has been gain.
Dian—At her residence, in Wells County, In
diana, on the 3d of May. Mrs. ELIZABETH, wife
of John Johnston, aged 47 years.
Mrs. Johnston was born in Stark County, Ohio
where, in early life, she espoused the cause pi
Christ. Having reamed with 'her husband and
family to this county in its first settlement, she
was one of the first members of the first Pres
byterian church, in this county; and since its
formation, a consistent and faithful member of
the New Lancaster church. She was eminent for
her hospitality, and untiring in her efforts to
minister to the wants of the afflicted. W.M.D.

daughter of Mr. R. B. and Eleanor A. Shannon,
aged 6 years, 7 months, and 26 days.
Mattie was a sweet child; the favorite of her
relatives and companions, and beloved of her
parents. Her sufferings were extreme; she had
nineteen convuh3lons in a single day, and was
cold as clay, except in the region of the heart, for
forty-eight hours before she ceased to breathe.
Then she was plucked as a flower from the gar
den of the Beloved, to be . transplante d in a
heavenly clime, to bloom in a glorious immor
tality. The Saviour gathered his lamb with his
arms, and now carries it in his bosom. J.A.C.
Dm—Suddenly, of disease of the heart, on
Sabbath morning, the 9th inst., while preparing
for church, at her residence, in Montgomery Co.,
Md., NM: CHARLOTTZ L. THOMPSON', wife of Mr.
Joseph Thompson, and daughter of the late F. A.
Tschiffely, Esq., of Washington City, D. C., aged
85 years.
She leaves a large and interesting family of
children, a fond husband, and many warm friends
to mourn her sudden and unexpected death. "It
is the Lord," however, "let him do what seemeth
him good." May God bless this sudden and sad
affliction to the eternal good of the bereaved hus
band of the dear, motherless children, and of the
little Presbyterian church of Darnestown, of
which she was a most devoted and active member.
"Watch ye therefore, for ye know not when the
Master of the house cometh, at even, or at mid•
night, or at the cock-crowing, or in the morning;
lest coming suddenly, he find you sleeping. 'And
what I say unto , you I say unto all, watch
Drsn—At her residence in Sharpsburg, on the
Sth of April last, in the 61st year of her age,
Mrs. OLIVIA 8., wife of Dr. V. B. M'Oshan. •
For many years she was a member of the
Church of Christ, and lived as an humble and ex
emplary follower of Jesus. Her health was for
the most part feeble, and she was often called to
bear affliction at the hand of the Lord; yet she
was patient and submissive. Her end was unex
pected, yet she was ready. She leaves behind
her, for the consolation of her friends, the cheer
ing hope that "all is well." Her earnest prayers
for her children are treasured up, and we trust
will be speedily answered in their conversion to
God.
Dlan—On the morning of the 12th inst., Mrs.
SARAH PABRT, wife of C. 0. Parry, M.D., and
daughter of Mr. John and Eliza Baize% in the
27th year of her nge.
The deceased lay for near ten months in extreme
weakness and suffering in body; yet ever calm,
and often even cheerful in spirit, in prospect of
her departure to that clime where the inhabitants
never say they are sick, and where all tears are
wiped from all faces." Under the happy influence
of a Christian home, from a child she grew up in
the knowledge of the Scriptures, and to all human
appearance, in the fear of God, and in the love
of the Saviour. Through life, and in all her sick
ness, she ever seemed to realize that whilst for her
to live would be Christ, yet to die would be great
gain. In the wonderful goodness and mercy of
the Divine Redeemer, scarce a cloud was ever
permitted to obstruct her spiritual vision; and,
to use her own language, " perfectly happy," she
waited patiently until her change came, " Blessed
are the dead which die in the Lord," he. '

MARY Cram, wife of Mr. John Clark, aged 68
years, and 9 months.
The deceased was delicate in health for many
years, and for the most part of tne last twelve
months, was confined to her room. She bore
her sufferings with Christian meekness, and when
death came, she peacefully yielded her spirit to
that Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ, whom she
loved, and in whose merits alone she trusted, and
in whose serviio she had been faithful for many
years. Mrs. Clark was the mother of ten 'chit
