Lo w hich request this co oF„,.fregaticet feel con
strained to yield, notwithstanding we have the
highest regard for, and COD lideace in him as a
. pastor, and asa faithful watchman upon the
walls of 'Zion, and as such do not desire the
separation; yet, in view of the cause which
i nduces hi m t o make the request; therefore,
Remised, That the resignation of the
Rev 3. A. Murray be accepted, and that J
A Gardner be appointed a Commissioner
from this church, to attend the next meet
jpg of the Presbytery of Carlisle, to express
the views of this congregation, in consenting
to the proposed dissolution of the pastoral
relation.
Resolver?, that while we, as a congrega
tion, would bow submissively to the dealings
,of Divine Providence, in thus indicating the
,necessity of a separation between us, as pas•
;tor and people, we cannot but deeply regret
the cause that requires him to withdraw
from the duties of the pastoral office, which
he has exercised with great acceptance over
this congregation for nearly eighteen years,
faithfully preaching "Christ, and him oru•
°Med."
Resolved, That we extend our heartfelt
sympathy to our beloved pastor, in the af•
Illation which has thus interfered with the
discharge of his duties, and obliges him, for
the present at least, to retire from the active
duties of the ministry; and that he has our
warmest wishes for his entire restoration to
health and future usefulness;- and our earn
est prayers that in his retirement he may
constantly enjoy the presence of the Lord
Jesus Christ, the manifestations• of his
grace, and the consolations of the Holy
Spirit; and that he may be permitted to
" Draw from heaven that swept repose,
Which none but he that feels it knows."
Resolved, That the Treasurer of this con•
gregation be hereby instructed to pay over
to the Rev. J. A. Murray his' salary for the
•entire year. WM. F. BONNER, Oh'n.

June 21st, 1858.
R.Ev. DR. MOKINNEY—.Dear Sir:—Yon
'who are so well provided in the cities with
all the privileges and advantages of regular
preaching and commodious churches, can
have but a limited and imperfect idea of the
.condition of those, who can only sometimes
hear the Gospel preached. It is a sore pH-
Titan to the Christian, to be compelled to
forego the privilege of mingling in the pub
lic worship of God in his own house, and on
his own day. In our mountain regions,
many are so situated. Preaching comes
only at distant and irregular intervals,
and when services are held in some moun
tain sobool•house or little (thumb, the distance
of many from the place of worship makes
it impossible for them to go to hear the Word.
In order to place a little church in as central
end accessible a position as possible, where
reaching could be had 000asionally, two
liberal and worthy gentlemen agreed to as
sume the resposibility of paying for a ehuich
which should cost $6OO. For this the
neighborhood was to raise as much as they
could, and the balance these gentlemen
stand pledged to pay. Toward the payment
of this sum, about $2OO have been raised,
after most diligent and thorough visitation;
and such is the wealth of the people of this
region, that more, we honestly believe, could
not be done by them. Now there is a Pres
byterian
strength in this quarter, which
'ought to be develdped and increased, and
we are doing what little we can, in the way
of breaking unto them spiritual bread from
time to time, to build up and multiply and
confirm a godly people here.
The people of this charge do not like that
such a burden should rest on two persons,
when in justice it should be borne by them
all. • But they feel that they have done their
best, and now it remains for these two gen
tlemen to do the rest. These persons
are very worthy men, bat we are sure the
payment of this debt will tax them beyond
what is right or proper to be borne. Will
not some one_ who has means to command,
send a little to the aid of these people
Men with such hearts as these have, who
have agreed to stand in the breach, ought
to have supporters and aids. All they can
receive from this quarter they have, but
these are by no means enough. Money and
means are not to' be gathered on our moun
tains as we can gather the grapes and the
berries in their season. Will not, therefore,
some generous ones be found among all
those to whom your paper goes, who can and
will send up a mite to free this little charge
from ito uneasy condition, and these worthy
men from their onerous burden? If any
are so disposed, their gifts will be received
with thankfulness, if they will remit them
to A FRIEND OF THE CHURCH,

Washington.
June 23.—Count Sartiges, the French Minis
ter, had an official interview on Saturday with
Ir. Case, during which he tendered the fullest
and most satisfactory disavowals of a complicity
.4 the Pronely Government in H. Belly's project
' lll Nicaragua and Central America.
The Union in noticing this subject, says: In
volving, as the operations of this personage did,
if they had been official, a clear violation of the
well known policy of this Government, in regard
to European colonization and the establishment
of exclusive European jurisdiction on this conti
nent, it was not to have been supposed that the
French Government could have authorized the
action taken by M Belly, in Nicaragua. The
Administration contemplates ordering a larger
naval force than we have heretofore had in the
waters of Central America and the Gulf, not on
account of new demonstration of 'interference by
foreign powers in that quarter, but with the gen
eral design of more effectually protecting the
lawful rights of our citizens, and guarding our
national interests from jeopardy.
The Union congratulates the country on the
auspicious settlement of the visit or search
question.
The Secretary of the Treasury invites sealed
proposals until the 9th of August for $10,000,000
of stock of the United States, to be issued under
the act of the 14th June. It .will be reimbursa
ble in fifteen years from the Ist of January,
1869, and bear interest at the rate of five per
cent. per annum, payable semiannually. No
bide will be received below par, and none for any
fractions of one thousand dollars. In all cases
the bids must be unconditional, and without
reference to the bide of others, and must sta , s
the premium offered therein. 'Hie successful
bidders will be required to deposit the principal,
together with the premium, of their accepted
bide, on or before the first of September next.
The court marshal on Capt. Seth W. Barton, of
the Ist regiment of infantry. found him guilty
of ordering a citizen to be flogged, and he was
sentenced to be suspended from rank and com
mand for three months The Secretary of War
has confirmed the sentence.
The Secretary of the Interior has rendered an
important decision in the case of the alleged pro
prietors of Superior City, and a question involv
ing pre-emption claims. The contestants nil d
to show that they had settled on any improved
lands in good faith for their own benefit, and it
was in evidence that they were employed by oth
ers under whose direction and for 'whose benefit
they acted. Therefore their claim is invalid and
is ordered to be cancelled. This decision estab
lishes a precedent that neither of the acts of
1841 and 1C44, for the relief of citizens of towns
on lands of the United States, refers to town
sites not already occupied as such at the time of
their passage, and that the parties must be actual
occupants of the town in order to enjoy the ad
vantages they confer.
A decided stand has been taken in regard to
Central American affairs. The governments of
the several States will at once be informed
through our minister that the administration is
determined in any event to eustain all the rights
and interests which have been secured to our citi
zens by grant or charter in that quarter.

VALUABLE! MAIL-BAGS.—At Milford, Mass., a

office in Tennessee, and directed to another plane
in the same State, and which contained four fifty
dollar bills, a twenty, a ten, a five, and a three—
in all, $238. This firm has purchased several
thousand of these worn out:mail-bags, and several
other letters have beeit found in them.
MR. WILLIAMS, of the Utica Herald, in one of
his letters to that paper, says that there is one

The result is, that the cunning Arab coolly outs
off the right hand forefinger and puts out the left
eye. Over one-third of the grown up males in
Egypt are thus mutilated. He also states that
justice is sold publioly at the tribunals every
day—and goes a begging for buyers. Thus at
the Cadi's Court, in Cairo, a ransom for murder
costs the modest sum of fifty purses, or about
$500; that of putting out an eye in an affray,.
$260; the knocking out of a tooth about $25;
and so on to the end of the chapter. if the liti
gant is rich. he comes ont of the meshes of the
law swimmingly.

Pirrearracm, Tuesday, June 29.
We are indebted tt the Pittsburgh Gazette for the follow
ing remarks: "The weather continues warm and clear—
too warm :or comfort, but just the thing for the growing
crops. The few weeke of bright weather, coming just in
the nick of time, have dispelled all the gloom that wee be
fore prevalent, and croaking has given way to a feeling of
satisfaction and pleasure. In a week from now, oriels's, our
farmers will begin to harvest their wheat, and if the
weather continues dry, they will garner the best harvest
that ever fell to their lot. In Bonthein Ohio, Indiana, and
Illinois, and in Kentucky, Missouri and Tennessee, the
wheat harvest le now going on eatisfactorily. The yield Is
better than was anticipated, and the crop is secured in the
beet possible condition. In Kentucky and Tennessee, how
ever, the Oats crop is said to be a failure, and within the
past two weeks large purchases have been made for ship
merits to that region. Happily, the prospect for our Oats
crop is excellent, and Barley, which is a prime substitute
for Oats, as hod for horses, is also a splendid crop. The
Corn crop is baokward, everywhere, but under this glorious
weather is coming forward rapidly., The papers everywhere
express the belief that the yield will be much larger than
was et first anticipated, and that, if the frost does not pre
maturely nip it, we shall have enough for all our wants.
Taking the whole country together, thti intelligence is very
favoiable. there wilt be same spate, here and there, where,
disaster from floods and other causes, will cause a short
yield; -but the general yield promises to be abundant!'

By the arrival of the steamship Ariel, at Bt.
Johns, N. F., on the 26th ult., and the Arabia, at

European news:
Debates of a very conciliatory nature, on the
American question, had taken place in both Houses
of Parliament. The squadron would probably be
withdrawn from the Cuban waters and sent to the
coast of Africa. The right of search and visita
tion is entirely abandoned.
There is nothing later from India.
It is reported that ;Pruesia is increasing her
navy.
The insurrection in Candle has been isubdued
A Company has been formed for a telegraphic
line between England and India, via the Red Sea,
with a. capital of £1,000,000.
Parliament is discussing a petition from Jatnai
ca, touching the Spanish slave trade. It was
contended that the threatening aspect in the af
fairs of the West Indies was occasioned by 'the
long failure of Spain to fulfill her treaty obliga
tions. Earl Malmesbury said that from a conver
sation with the American Minister, there was
every reason to believe that some un derstandingi
would be had, clearly verifying the nationality of
vessels without seeking a breach of international
law.
The Arabia reports seeing a steamer, supposed
to be the United States steamer Niagara, on the
28d, in lat. 53, 36; long. 36, but too far off to
speak her. The weather during the passage was
generally fine, though not quite up to the average
of June weather.
In Parliament, Lord Malmesbury also referred
to the support given by England to Spain in re
sisting the policy of the United States for thwart
nexation of Cuba, but said that if she still per.
sided in the slave trade, it was highly probable
that England would exchange her present amity
with Spain to indifference. Earl Grey thought
that France and the United States were solely re
sponsible for the renewal; of the slave trade.
With regard to international laws, so far as he
understood it, an American vessel filled with
slaves might leave Africa without England being
able to interfere, notwithstanding a perfect know•
ledge of her character. Lord Aberdeen endorsed
the definition.
In the House of Commons the question of out
rages in the Gulf of Mexico, upon American com
merce, wag considered. The drift of the speeches
was, that when the matter was !filly understood
on both sides, the difficulty would be amicably
arranged.

careful scrutiny into her spiritual state. Having

acquaintances as a woman of integrity and moral
worth. For many years prior to her death, she
was an exemplary member of New Providence
church. She has gone, it is hoped, from the
Church militant,- to swell the ranks of the re
deemed who have washed their robes and made

Dian—Oa Sabbath, the 2d of May last, near
West Lebanon, Indiana County, Pa., Mr. MAT
THEW IlAnausorr, a Ruling Elder of the Presby
terian church in that place, in the 54th year of
his age.
As a husband and ftther, be showed a very in
telligent and indulgent regard for the comfort and
welfare of his family, both temporal and spiritual.
is civil society, he was both void of offence and
full of the spirit of accommodation. His attend
ance on the ordinances of God's•house was most
punctual and devout In Eidersridge church,
from its organization, during the twenty-three
years of his membership, he was very rarely ab
sent from public worship, whether on the Sabbath
or any other day. And though set off, fiVet 'Tars
ago, at the organization of West Lebanon church,
it is believed that he never missed attendance on
any communion season in the former ollurch, till
the: time of his death. Being chosen to the elder
ship in the latter organization, he soon began to
manifest a growing degree of spirituality in , ex
perience, and of wisdom in counsel; also of lib
eralitY and enlightened . zeal for the cause of
Christ at home "and abroad. His disease, pneu
monia, was of less than two weeks duration, and
so depressing in its influence as to forbid his
talking much. Still the whole tenor of his ex
perience, so far as it could be knownin that try
ing time, made it evident that the God by whose
grace and for - whose glory he' had lived, was in
'death his satisfying portion; that the Saviour
whom he loved in life was. "in the valley and
shadow of death," his supporter and comforter,
so that he feared no ill "Help Lord, for the
godly man ceaseth, for the faithful fail from
among the ehildren of men." D:
Dian March 18th, in Liberty Township, Mon
tour County. Pa., Mr. Wm. 11. Auras, in the 28th
year of his age. , ,
His illness was somewhat protracted, but yet
borne by him with great patience and resignation.
As he grew near his end, he ripened rapidly for
the change. And so signally was the glory of
our blessed religion displayed in his dying hours,
that he had no desire to live, no fear .of death,
but au earnest longing to be with Jesus. It is but
seldom, indeed, we are brought so near " the verge
of heaven," as in the death-bed scene of this dear
young man. Though for some time previous to
his death he wad unable to speak above a whisper,
he wished all who came to see him to be brought
to his bedside, that he 'might tell them how
happy he was; and he continued to admonish
and exhort them, though persuaded to desist on
account of his diftaulty in breathing, declaring
that he wished to spend his last breath in the ser
vice of. God. And on being urged to sleep, so as
to rest himself from the exhausting labor of talk
ing to his comrades and acquaintance, he an
swered, "Oh, no, I never expect to sleep again;
there is no sleeping in heaven." He loved. to
hear those who were with him, sing the, beautiful
hymn, "I would not live aiway," and desired it
to be sung at his funeral. "Two, years ago,"
said he, "my cheeks bloomed with youth, but
thank God, heaven is better than youth." And
thus he passed away -in the freshness of his
young manhood, not only peaceful and happy,
but triumphant. And in his death, we who are
left, have sweet assurance of• the truthfulness of
the promise, " Lo, I am with you alway, even
unto the end." J.J.A.M.
•. DIED—On the 10th 'of May, in Birchardville,
Susquehanna County, Pa., after a short illness,
Mrs. MARY 13113.01tA.RD, wife of John S. Birchard,
in the 51st year of her age.
At the early age of twelve, Mrs. B. professed
faith in Christ, and to the day of her death, led 'a
consistent, Christian life. She was one of the
original members of the Presbyterian church of
Friendsville; and her husband is the only remain
ing Ruling Elder in that chureh; The lively in
terest she manifested in the spiritual welfare of
her family, and in the extension of Christ's king
dom, as well as her consistent and exemplary
life, afford the best evidence of the sincerity of
her profession as a Christian.' In her death the
community, the church, and her own family, have
sustained a great loss. But we believe that their
loss is her infinite gain. T.T.
Dian.—On the 24th of May, in Biraharde►ille,
'J'assa G. BracatAan, aged 11 years, being the
youngest eon of John B. Birchard, of typhoid
fever.
Little Jesse was a favqrite child at home, at
school, and wherever he was known. His pious
mother had consecrated him to the. Lord, and was
very anxious, to the day of her death, that he
should be spared and, qualified to serve Christ in
the Gospel ministry. But He who says, "My
thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your
.ways my ways," has taken, we hope, both mother
and son to serve him above. T.T.
DlED—June 16th, at the residence of her son,
Mr. David Reasoner, in Mercer County, Pa., Mrs.
ELIZABETH REASONER, aged 81 years.
Mrs. Reasoner emigrated to Western Pennsyl
vania more than forty years ago, *with" her hus
band; and settled 'within the bounds of Salem
congregation, where she spent the remainder of
her life in the communion of the Presbyterian
church ; and though confined to her room, and
for most of the time to herbed, for more than
three years before her death, she was enabled by
Divine grace, to bear with meek humility, her pro-'
traoted sufferings. On the day before, she was
suddenly attacked with a slight paralysis of body;
and the last day that she was able to converse
with her Christian friends, the writer inquired of
her what were her views of God in Christ, ,and
whether she felt' willing to die, and prepared to
meet God in peace; she replied; I long to be
gone; all her hope and all her oonfidenoe were,
in Jesus'Christ. • J.C.

DIED—At her reSidenee, Rayne Township, In
diana County, Pa., June 9th, Mrs. Baser ALUM,
wife of Samuel Adams, 5r.,.. in the 65th year of
her age.
The deceased, daughter of James and Mary
Nesbit •was born in Coneinaugh Township, Indi
ana County, and in early life eonseirated herself
to the Lord by uniting with the Associate Pres
byterian church of Conemaugh, in the commu
nion of which she remained until she, with her
husband, united with the Presbyterian church of
Ebenezer, under the pastoral care °Melt. Joseph
W. Henderson. Her membership was transferred
to Saltsburg church at its organization, where she
remained till 1839, when she; with her husband,-
removed to the church of Washington, in the
communion of which she remained until she was
called'to enter into the joy of her Lord, leaving
behind her an affectionate husband, with whom
she had lived forty, one Years, and six children,
together with a large'cirele of 'friends -and rely
tires, to mourn their loss. Her fortitude, during
her last sufferings, were in happy consistency
with that conformity to her Master's will, which
characterized her whole life. She patiently
waited until she was called to enter into the rest
which remaineth for the people of God.
DIED—Lft Piney Township, Clarion Co., Pa.,
June 12th, 1858, Mr. THOMAS Mauna, son of Mr.
Andrew Magee, in the 60th year of his age.
He was long a member and also a Deacon in
Licking church, but owing to the sickness which
terminated in hie death, for about the space of
two years he was unable to discharge the duties
of his office, or even attend regularly the public
Ministrations of the sanctuary. Nevertheless,
his heart was with us. He loved the gates of
Zion, and continually prayed for her prosperity.
He waited his appointed time with calmness and
composure, and the last prayer the writer heard
him utter was, " Come, Lord Jesus, come quick
ly !" May our last end be like his I
