A Church Dedicated. in Oregon.
BROTHER MoKrrire.Ev—Dear Sir : I
doubt not but it will interest you, and the
readers of the Banner and Advocate, to
hear of the dedication of our church at
Pleasant Grove. But permit me first to
give a brief history of this church.
Rev. Philip Condit emigrated to this
neighborhood, and commenced ministerial
labors in the Spring of 1854. His own fam
ily contained the only members of our
Church then residing in the. county. In
September, 1856, 1 assisted lather Condit in
the organization of the church, °minting of
nine members, He entered at once upon
the work of building a house for public wor
ship. He donated the grounds for church.
lot and grave-yard, and procured part of the
material for the building. And then be
ceased from his labors, for God called him
home to his reward on the 24th.of Novara
ber, 1856, " and his works do. follow him."
His family completed the work, according
to the plan of their venerable father. We
have now a neat and comfortable church ed
ifice, well finished and furnished with lamps,
&,o , at a cost of over $l,BOO, exclusive of
the lots; and upwards of $9OO of this came
from the family of our deceased brother.
The house is free from debt, without any
aid from the Church Extension Committee,
and it is the only Old School Presbyterian
church edifice in the Willamette valley.
This house was publicly dedicated to the
worship of God on the 17th of April, 1858.
The dedication sermon was preached by
Rev E. Geary, of Brownsville; and the
Sabbath following the Lord's Supper was cel
ebrated, and five persons were received into
communion oh profession of their faith, two
of whom received baptism. It pleased God
to visit us with the reviving influences of
bie Spirit. The graces of God's people were
revived, and their faith strengthened.
Shaners were convinced and converted, and
others are still inquiring, "What must .T. do
to be saved ?" Truly God has done great
things for us, whereof we are glad. May
God enable us to be more faithful, as his
embassadors, in winning souls to Christ.
Yours, truly, J. A. HANNA.

Decease of Rev, Joseph B Redden.
Bair. Da. MCKINNEY :—Another of
Zion's watchmen has been called to his rest
and reward. The Rev. Joseph B. Sadden,
fell asleep in Jesus, at his residence in An
drew, Jackson Clounty, lowa, on the 11th
inst. He was a native of South Carolina,
received his Theological education, at
Princeton, and spent the first twelve or four
teen years of his ministry in Kentucky,
where he was respected, beloved and useful.
In 1862, he removed to Jackson County,
lowa, and his since that laboured faithfully
in the churches of that county. His last
sickness found him waiting his Master's will,
ready to depart, which he felt would be far
better, but willing• to tarry God's time. So
calm and peaceful was his end—so strong
his faith and so bright his hope, as he ap
preached the grave, that no one that wit
nessed his triumph, could fail to join the in
spired prayer, "Let me die the death of the
righteous, and let my last end be like his "

saken and left to want? No, indeed : '•The
Lora will provide." A far better provider
and protector is be than man could be "Let
them trust in the name of the Lord." He
died in the midst of the people for whom he
had long labored, and where he was re•
'Toted, and beloved by all; and where his
loss is deeply deplored and lamented by the
old and young. May the Lord have that
deer family under his special protection and
care; and sanctify the bereavement abundant.

A Word to the Churches on Domestic
Missions,
The Treasurer of . the Board of Domestic
Missions for the West, informs us that not
more than twenty dollars for that cause have
come into his hands, in the first half, of the
present month, whilst at least one thousand
dollars have fallen due to missionaries within
the same time. This is a worse state of the
ease than is usual at this season of the year.
The Board' is forbidden to eend out agents to
take collections from the churches. What
can its officers do but call upon the churches,
which have not taken their annual collections,
to do so immediately and forward the result
to the Treasurer? The treasury of the West
has long since been exhausted, and that at
the East soon will be. What is done, ought
to be done quickly. The self denying, la•
borious - missionaries and their families must
not be allowed to suffer for the want of
promptness in paying their small salaries.
The work of evangelizing the country must
not cease, or even falter. Let every church
do something, however. swill it may be.—

Hugh Killer's "Cruise of the Betsey."
Having read this work through twice, and with
ever increasing delight, the present writer can
not refrain from saying a word respecting its
characti r, The preface states that the contents
were originally published as a series of articles
in the Edinburgh Witness of which Mir. Miller
was editor. This fact might lead some to con
clude that the work is but a collection of fugi
tive pieeo composed to meet the necessities of
a newspaper editor, and never intended for per
manent publication. But such a conclusi on
would be unjust. The book, though in form it
consists of two parts, is in fact a connected
whole, presenting the results of several geological
ea lorations which the author made over the
islands and mainlands of Scotland. That the
work was originally published in the Witness is
nothing against its solid and enduring merits, for
a large part of "The Old Red Sandstone," the
foundation stone of its author's fame, was first
published in the same paper. The truth is, the
Witness was Hugh Miller's property (in part,) and
whatever intellectual wealth be had was wisely
poured into its columns. The great store of soi
entific knowledge and original discovery which
some would have reserved for a systematic trea
tise in book form to edify the learned, he lavished
upon the masses through his semi weekly press.
But he also bad an eye to the future, and while
he prepared his material, in the first instance, for
the circle of his newspaper readers, he at the
same time elaborated it with a view to that wider
circle which should afterward receive it in the
bound volume.•
Such appears to have been the ease with "The
Old Red Sandstone," and such, in an equal degree,
the case with " The Cruise of the Betsey." The
admirers of the former wonderful book may be as
lured, that in the latter they have a continuation
of the a line general theme in the Same delightful
style. There is the same display of profound sa
gacity, the same mastery of geologic science, the
same unrivalled power of description, the same
fine humor and genial tone. In one respect "The
Cruise" is more adapted to please the general
reader than " The Old Red " or "The Testimony"
or the " Footprints," for while it abounds like
those in geological discussion, it contains more of
adventure and personal incident. Now the author
is on the land, now on the ocean, Now with ham
mer in hand he breaks open the "stone coffins" of
the ancient fishes, and exposes their remains or
effigies, now he climbs thb mighty Scuir, notes its
structure, describes its basaltic columns appear
ing slender as organ pipes, and uncovers its foun
dations so as to 'show that the lofty plutonic bill
rests upon a buried pine forest, unnumbered ages
old. Now he is in the yanht Betsey, with its sail
or-minister, sailing and cooking, threading the
kyles and lochs in calm and storm, and all the
while marking and describing the geologic aspects
of the islands. At one page we have a thrilling
account of the massacre of Eigg, at another
marvellous ghost story. Here we have an elabor
ate speculation respecting the vitrified fortalicea of
Scotland, there a pregnant suggestion respeeting
the medicinal waters of a spa.
Does the reader,delight in natural scenery ?
Let him peruse the fine description of the Auld
grande River and glen .Is he interested in anti
quities ? Let him read the chapter on the Cathe
dral and palaces of. Orkney.. In the chapter on
the boulder-play, the scientific reader has a lucid
interpretation of a page of the great stone volume
which had lohg been unintelligible to Hugh Miller,
but which at length, under his patient, sagacious
questioning, "begins to tell its story." Oa the
other hand, in the "autobiography of a boulder,"
he has a creation of the scientific imagination
worthy of a place by the side of the Miltonic pas
sages in " The Testimony of the ! Rooks." But it
would require more space than is here at coin
mend to paint out a tithe of,the rare, rich things
contained in "The Cruise." If Hugh Miller had
written nothing but this, it would be sufficient
to give him enduring fame as an original discov
erer in science, a profound thinker, a poiverful
imaginative creator, and a master of a most cap
tivating-English style.— Boston Transcript.

The net earnings from January. Ist, to July

the same period of last year, of $185,284.
The Canal department, from August 1, 1857,
when the Railroad Company got possession of
the State Maine Line, till July 1, 1858, shows a
net earning of $29,980.
By a new arrangement, the passenger oars are
to run through without ohange, between Philadel
phia and Pittsburgh, thus saving trouble to passen
gers, and enabling the Company to dispense with
the services of several of their conduotors.
In smoothness of motion, promptitude to the
time table, the gentlemanly manners of the con
ductors, freedom from dust, and excellence of en
tertainment at the prinolpal stopping places, , we
have found nothing in all our journeyings to sur
pass, and very little to equal, the Pennsylvania
road; and 'as regards melancholy disasters, froth
collisions, breaks, &a , this road is remarkably
free. The great care bestowed insures safety.
Railroad Accident.
The New York and Erie Railroad, seems doomed
to disasters. On the evening of the 16th inst.,
about 9 o'oloCk, the loComotive of the Express
Train which left New York, at half-past five P.
M., near Shin Hollow, six miles short of
Port Jervis, running at great speed, struck &bro
ken rail, jumped it, carrying the baggage car and
four passenger oars safely over, but the rear cars
were thrown from the track, the coupling between
them and the cars ahead broke, and the two rear
care were pitobed headlong down an embank
ment forty feet high. Nine persons were killed
outright, and forty to fifty wounded. The hind
most car turned over several times, and an iron
truck fell on it, mashing it. In this oar the
deaths occurred. The night was dark, and the
scene most herrn le. The locomotive and a car
was dispatched Immediately to Port Jervis, which
returned with physicians and medioines. Lights
were made by burning pieces of the broken cars,
and ere long the wounded and dead were gotten
on to care, that had not been injured, and were ta
ken to the village.
The iron on this part of the road is said to be
very poor. Some two or three years ago, a rail,
not far from this same place, broke and threw the
whole train down an embankment into the river,
causing great injuries. Such accidents show great
carelessness some where.
California,
The Star of the West has arrived at New York,
with $1,401.718 in gold.
The new gold region, on Frazer River, in the
British Possessions, a little North of Washington
Territory, was drawing off great numbers of la
borers from California. Within two months, fif
teen thousand persons had gone, and multitudes
were preparing to follow, so that six months may.
number forty thousand emigrants from the State.
Six steamers bad been laid on the route from Sp
Frarseisoo to the new mines. Steamers go lip the
Frazer River to Fort Langley, ninety four miles,
and ,smaller steamers to Fort Rope, sixty !due
miles.. The distance thence 'to the mouth of
Thompson River, which is the centre of the gold
mines, is sixty-six miles. This is to be passed in
canoes, and the Tassage is very difficult, on ac
count of rapids; rocks, and narrows.

mines are said to be exceedingly rich. Their pro
ductions are already having an influence upon the
deposits at the California mint, from our own gold
d;ggings. Tho officers of the Hudson's Bay Com
pany, do not much relish the influx of Americans;
and the conjecture is already propounded, that the
ingress may affect the Company's claims, if not
even the permanency of the British possession of
the country.
The shipinenta from San Frairisco, continue
fully equal to last year. To the 15th June they
amounted to $21,623,000, as against $21,620,000
to same period last season.
The news from San FranciSco, is not otherwise
very important.
The defeat of Col, Steptoc, by the Indians, in
Oregon, is confirmed. He had left Fort Walla
Walla, May 7th, with 110 men, in there
companies, for Fort Colville. The Indians being
regarded as friendly. he was not well prepared for
a conflict. On the Pelouse River, he was assailed
by the Spokanes, supposed to be about 600 in
number. The battle lasted from morning till
evening, Col. Stoptoe's ammunition failed, and
he had to fly, losing his stores, howitzers, and
ten men killed; and a number were wounded. The
Indian loss was still more numerous in men. An
Indian war is likely to follow.
Pittsburgh, Port Wayne and Chicago
Railroad
The net earnings on this road for June, 1857,
were $36,004; and for June, 1858, $29,643.
Decrease this year, $6,460.
For the half year ending June 30th, 1857, the
road netted $299,672 ; and for the same period of
1858, $271,616, .that is $27,956 loss than last
year.
The freight business on this road is much
affected by the course of trade, whether that
tends Westward by the river, or by Cleveland and
the Likes, or directly through the interior:

Trade with Central America and with the
States of the South Pacific, via Isthmus
of Panama.
Without the Panama Railroad the development
of the commerce and resources of Central and
S .uth America would. if necessity, have been ex
ceedingly slow, and, so far as this country is con
cerned, would have remained, as it had been for
nearly two centuries, almost a sealed book. But
in the completion of this great national work,
which was found 'to be F 8 necessity in the trans
portation of California freight and passengers,
an unexpected amount of business started up from
collateral points, which is likely, in time; to equal,
if it does not exceed, the business for which ,the
road was originally projected. Already, in fact ?
the freight transportation of the 'road is, nine
tenths of it. made up of merchandise from Eng
land for the various ports of South America on the
Pacific aide, and of the products of South and
Central America which are returned—a large pro
portion of the latter still 'being in the hands of
English merchants.—N. Y. Times.

000 to $.6,000,000. About 20 lives were lost in
the city. The National Palace suffered oonsid

made in the earth. The streets,.• in -some in

PITTBBVEGH, Tuesday, July 20
There is a general bin in business at the present time,
and prices 'remain about as hist noted. The weather is
warm, but not oppressive, with cool , breezes, making it
pleasant for those engaged in the harvest field. We have to
record a changed aspect in the crops in some localities. The
Oats crop West and South of us is a failure. Prices have
gone up here from twenty-five to thirtyflve cents a bushel.
The Corn grop on flat lands is coming forward slowly, and
growers in some sections are, much discouraged; and the
Wheat crop in the central and Northern parts of.lndians.
an Illinois and Senate= lowa has been scrions'y injured
by the rest and blight—the Fail wheat mitering most. In
addition to these sections, there are counties mattered here
and there throughout the country which have suffered in
like manner, and it is not to be denied that the prospect for
a super abundant yield Is by no means so good snit was two
weeks since.
In Allegheny County, the Wheat hes been affeoted to
some llextent with rust; but, upon the whole, we think
tbere will be an average crop. The Oats have also suffered
some from rust, which, we hslieve, is a very unusual thing.
The yield, however, will be good. The Corn never looked
better, and if the weather still continues favorable, there
will be an abimdant crop. Gram is very plenty. Apples,

Woman, a Sewing Machine !
A young man who is about to commence house
keeping, might almost as well do so without a wife
as without a Sewing Machine, unless,lndeed, he
wishes to make a Sewing Machine of his wife,
which many thoughtlessly do. But health and
vigor were never bestowed on women for the pur
pose of being damaged or destroyed by incessant
domestic drudgery. Little Fanny, or. juvenile
Billy, all children, in fact, thrive better for a
mother's care '
• and how can she bestow that time
on their moral and physical culture when 'com
pelled to the drudgery of the needle`! All this
toil may be avoided; and the domestic sewing bet

The defeat, by the majority of one . hundred
and fifty-one in the House of Lords, of the bill
for abolishing Church . rates, has already been
mentioned. The principal arguments urged
against the bill appear to hate been that Church
rates were a charge on property, and their pay
ment was, therefore, no hardship. to dissenters,
who purchased property subject to that draw
back ; and, secondly, that is this compulsory
mode of repairing ohurohes, the poor had their
only security for the permanence of those edifices.
Even the peers and bishops who opposed the bill,
admitted that some change was necessary, and
that their opposition was, grounded on the feet
that the bill provided no substitute for the rata.

tared the work of grace in her heart: Her life'

Ker last labor, when in health, was to copy that

Nearly the whole of a large edition of this work hit been
exhausted by orders in advance of publication. Nothing
need be said of it save that it pomades the same fascination
for the reader that chsrecterises the author's other works.
['from the Boston Journal.]
"Its style alone would render it charming;, Oat that is
simply the translucent medium for conveying the choicest
beauties of rare scientific knowledge; for accurate, vet
brilliant sketches, each of whose subjects stamps itself upon
the mental .retina, for noble mad far-reaching' viewei - and
warm, healthful emotions."
[From the N. Y. Evening Post.]
"The work displays the great Geologist's strong,' compre
hensive sense, his keen observation of nature. his learning,
and terse and graphic simplicity of style, which imparts •
high and peculiar value to all his writings. • * • On
the whole, we think I his volume is likely, to prove the most
popular of all the' writings which the philosopher of Beet.
land has bequeathed us." • • . •

"It has those marked - and characteristic, milts whiolii
have, given to the previous publications of the lamented
writer so wide a circulation', and so enduring a popularity.
Indeed we predict for the present work an unusual degree
of public favor, because there is in it so much of animated
desoription sad spirited narrative." •
"Tho writer's style has almost become . • pro*erb, for
perepiculty, terseness, and strength; which, with hie keen
observation, generous sentiments,- and genial-humor, im•
part a peculiar charm to all his Works, and to none more so
than to that before Ms."
