Remember thy Bible, for on it bath gazed The bright eyes of childhood end youth ; And their hearts have grown warm with rapture and praise, As they read o'er its pure words of truth. BemeMlier thy Bible, the dim ,eyes of age Haiti brightened sr ith feelings - of love; And t'helr pale cheeks have glowed, es they bent o'er the page That told of their bright home above, Remember thy Bible--its words have been read By thy father at morn, and at even, To the loved finally circle, now scattered and dead;. , Oh I how many have left thee for heaven. Yet though amid weeping and mourning below, Death bath broken affection's bright chain; Ytt the fair, golden links, still brighter shall glow When united in heaven again. Remember tbyl3ible, in affliction's dark hours, When thy loved ones are passing away; Its sweet words will fall, like the dew on the flowors When faint 'nes.th the long Summer day; Then turn to thy. Bible, 'twill dry thy sad tears, And the sh tdows shall pass swift away, As the stars still grow brighter, till morning aR- Fears, When they fade in the fair light of day. Bo wild the dark woes that encompass thee notv, At+ thy bark by the wild storm is driven, The hopes of the Bible still brighter shall glow, Till thou wake in the glad light of heaven. Remember thy Bible, When thou nearest the brink Of JOrdatt, the Rtirer of Death ; Its sireei, words of promise will not let thee sink, And pralses.shall tune thy last breath. For the Presbyterian Banner and Advocate. , College Endowment. Everybody would be glad to nee a College endowed on a scale worthy of the •churches, in the. bounds of the old Synod ot Pitts burgh; now forming the: three Synods of Pittsburgh, Wheeling ; and Allegheny *''The amount sof money that should be devoted to this endowment, ought hardly to be less than half a million of dollars. A small part of this sum Might be invested in buildings, but it is chiefly , required in order to be funded for the support of Professors, Schol arships, Library, and Appsratirs, so as to place our College on a footing, io these re epees, with Harvard, Yale, or any -Aber in the entatry. ' Nor need we despair, of oh taioing this ambutit'Of 'motley for so worthy an object. The forty thousand oommuni eantesin the three Syncids; would represent probably fifty; thousand. ; ,aamiliea, perhaps more, whose .bigher educations interests would be deeply affected by the College; not, to speak of thousands more still, who do not live in the bound,s of the old Synod, bat who look to its uhurohes as the glory of the laud, and its institutions as the best planes of education , for their, children. An average oontribution of five &liars, once a year for but two years, from each family 'in the three Sprods, would make the sum needed. Many, no doubt, neither would nor could give anything at all ; a few might be expected to kind largely; a sornewlikt general contribution might alto •be expected ' , if the'brethren were of one mind as to the object; and peradventure acme one, two, or half a dozen -might be found, who would give the whole endowment. One man ,in Pittsburgh lately left a larger sum than this for benevolent purposes, and mainly for eau (rational uses. The money could be had, we cannot but believe, sooner or later, it' the brethren were only of one mind as to , the matter. Without such union of effort, little' can be done, and perhaps nothing should be attempted. In order toy a united and 'general effort, the manner of holding the endowment be comes an important question; and it is 'one which must be settlee before any movement for obtaining money is made. Concerning this, the (Tinier" ~may be here 'expressed, with modesty, yet with a strong persuasion of,its correctness, that no stun, of $500,000 for a College van be obtained, if it is to be placed in the , hands of a close corporation; while a College, inseparably allied to the Church, and governed by Trustees appointed from time 'to time by the Church Courts, might be , expected eventually to secure a liberalendowtnent, even whatever sum might be v iieeded It would receive the contribu tione of the llving, and the bequests of-the dying. amen the people,of God; for itsowo sake partly, but chiefly for its permanent connexion with the Church of Christ, and its great use in promoting lie °awe. A simple process is all that is necessary to form a College Direotory with a general line of administratiOn, in which the churches would confide to the end of time. Let the three Synods create , a Board of Trusteei—eaoh Synod, electing ry certain number of mem hers not exceeding• five, making fifteen in all; and each Synod filling the vacancies caused by the death or resignation of its own members; let this*Board of Trustees be in. corporated with , an , open charter, in which this mode of electing its members is recog. nixed; and then let all and every thing else ' in College management- be left to these Trustees In this way, the coopexion he. tween the Cullege:end the Church would be complete; and yet neither the, College nor the'Synode would, be embarrassed in the transaction of business: matters. Snob a Board of Trustees might be chosen 'without much delay, and so far as this important part c f tbd'work is concerned, a great step would then bave been taken. No measure of • this kind ought to be taken, however, without the general , and cordial ooneurrende of the brethren in the three Synods. And In order to this, there should be the wisest' and kindest consider.' ation of the ease of our existing Colleges, so that no advantage now possessed should be sulieeted to loss or even to much risk. This 'consideration should, by no means, take tbe form of controversy; rather let the* whole matter remain in abelance, until we, * The old Synod of Pittsburgh embtaciod, also, ',bat is nowthe Synod uf Ohio,. but tbili t ikusii is milted ivitletlinointustOil eiforbStuwatd ifiseqUlge' endnumat. r or our successors, can see the questions in volved, in the same light. As an humble ti nitribution toward the solution of the prat deal difficulties, which all acknowledge to exist, and to stand in the way of uniting our two Colleges ' the following plan is respect fully offered for consideration : 1.. Let these Colleges be united at either place, but preferably at Canonsburg, (for the reason which is implied in what follows,) leaving the present endowment funds; so far • as these 'are connected with either Owe, altogether undisturbed;,but combining the two Faculties as far as> practicable, and ap propriating to the College such moneys as are at the disposal of any of the Synods for this purpose. It would be further neces• nary to effect some arrangement between. the present Trustees of the College, and the Sy nodical Board of Trustees, so is to secure unity of ,action, which could be done.in va lions ways. ;• ,•• 2 At the place left unoccupied by this union, let a Female Seminary be established, somewhat on college basis ' and also -under Trustees appointed by the three Syriods. Let its aim be, not to interfere with any of the existing female•Setninaries which adorn r im many of our towns, under private pro prietorship, but to invite the attendance of young ladies who have finished the usual course of instruction in these: Seminaries, cr who may be of less juvenile age than most of the pupils in these excellent schools An institution of this kiwi, a Female Semi nary , on•a college basis as to many branches of education, might become. one of great influence for good; and its location might well be made in a town like Washington, marked , by the residence of 'so many Chris tian families of cultivation •and refinement: In order to its success, a liberahendowment should eventually be provided. This ought to be taken in band as soon as the united College was endowed; indeed ? arrangements • for it might be completed without much de ' lay. Many would probably give their do nations or their bequests to this institution, in preference to the other; the public ap peals to the churches should not be made for both, however, until the college endow ment were, out of the way. The success of' this Female Seminary would hardly be a matter of uncertainty, aid . this would more than compensate the place vacated by the tratisfer of' - the existing college for any dis advantage thereby occasioned to its local in terests. The two institutions would hence; fOrth be no more rivals, but the one a broth er and the other 'a 'Sister in 'the family, cherished with equal reaard 'by the thou sands of our Israel, and by many in the kiudied tribes of God's people. If this' plan should not be considered good or practicable, it may at least serve tbe purpose of turning attention somewhat spe cially to the question of . Wine can be doe e Probably no plan can be devised that, will be free from difficulties, and perhaps nothing at all can be ione; .buteat atly rate no harm can result. from_a : kind, and Christian con sideration Of the subject. , JOHN. , For the Preebyterien Banner end Advoakte. The Revised Disqipline—Baptized Mem- berg. Mn. EDITOR :---Our Bziok of Discipline, under the hands of the Assembly's able Committee, has not only been revised, but greatly improved. Permit me, however, ,to make a suggestion or two in relation to Sec. 111. of Chap. 1., to which you Invited at tention in your editorial of the 29th, ult. As the Section , now stands, I deem your strictures unanswerable. Why we ,should aiscrintivat/ in the Church's, treatment of her own members, equally. " under her gov eminent and training," having equally reached "the years of discretion, and equally " bound, to perform all the duties of Church members,"bi not easily shown, We should either give them a different name, or subject them to the same treatment. There seems to be no alternative. Total exemp tion from judicial prosecution, be their con-, duct what it may, marks a wide difference of treatment between baptized and commu nicating members. But if the former are members of the Church, and under its gov ernment, while both the Chureh''and its government are treated with contempt, can the latter innocently, ,fail to vindicate her authority, or refuse the benefit of her discipline to her offending members? With due deference, then, Mr. Editor, to the long established practice of denomi nating baptized persons, Church members, I suggest that this cognomen is a misnomer, or the practice of the Church, on this sub ject, is all wrong. "Profession of, faith in Christ" is as necessary to constitute Sub jects of any sort of discipline, as of " judi cial prosecution." In a word, without true faith in Christ, all Church discipline' and government, as well as "'judicial foreseen- Lion," will be as so many pearls cast before swine Baptismal water alone, reaches not the deep — foundations , of character; this is accompliehed only by the "baptism:, of the Spirit. Without "faith in Christ," the merely baptized are not a whit better than others, and the principal benefit. resulting from their baptism, is that it brings them into such external relationship to the Church as to entitle them to the special interest, sympathies, and prayers of the Church for their conversion and salvation. And this is the true answer to the question, " What profit in. Infant Baptism ?" as it was to the old question, " What advantage bath the Jew? or,, what profit is there of circum cision ?" Surely, Infant Baptism is quite as rational and useful as Infant Oireunt• cfsion • and to say that the latter was use less and irrational, is a downright impeach• ment of the wisdom and goodness of its Divine •Author. Jewish advantages, how ever, were attainable only through Jewish circumcision ,. of which advantages, the chief was I , ; hat unto them was committed the oracles of God," (Rom. 2) e_, the great benefit of religious instruction. In like manner, pastoral, pulpit, as well as pa rental instruction, under the present dispen sation, in connexion with the tender interest, prayers, and sympathies of the Church, constitute the chief advantages of Infant Baptism. These advantages are immensely great, inasmuch as the covenant promise of a faithful God guarantees the final conver sion and salvation, as a general rule, of all those baptized children for Whose instruction and salt alien believing parents and a be lieving Church, affizieg the seal of the coietiatit, call into requisition the requisite Scriptural' instrumentalities. :4111bbjeettrillri -Editoritiwi these ,brief "ONE THING IS NEEDFUL:" "ONE THING HAVE I DESIRED OF THE LORD:" "THIS ONE THING.

Very truly yours, L D. From the Princeton Review. Church Commentary on the Bible. Dr . 13reetinridge offered a minute to pro vide a Commentary on the Scriptures which shall be in accordance with the Westminster doctrines of this Church, as follows: "Inasmuch as the wsot of a sound, godly, and thorough Commentary on the Whole Word of God, composed in.the sense of the constant faith of the Church of God, as that is briefly set forth in the Standards of the Wentminster Assembly, held by the Presbyterian Obttreh in the United States of America, has long been felt to be a grievous want, ~w hereby a great lank of due serViNS to Gud and to his truth occurs and whereby constant danger arises to men of needlesa ignorance on one side, and of dangerous miiguidance on tte other; therefore, be it " Resolved,' By the General Assembly, quit the Board of Publication shall, and it is hereby 'directed to_ proceed with , all Conve 7 nient dispatch to have such a Commentary composed, preparekfor the press, and pub lished. And in the execution 'of this great work, the following rules and orders, to gether with such farther as may be adopted from time to time by, the General '4asembly, shall be carefully observed by ,the :Bard of Publication, and by all others In any. ways engaged in the execution of any part thereof., " 1 The Commentary shall be prepared clue vely .by the members, of this. Church, and in , the preparing, of it 'they shall haVe all such indulgence as, to time,. as they:shill respectively demand: 'And tor their own compensation and their heirs, shall receive, for the legal term of twenty-eight years, a (air per centum, on the price of the work sold, which shall be- in advance by, the oard of• Putrileatioui aD4 whi;ah 5134 be uniform, and in lieu of all claims and coat . of every sort in any way connected with their said ikorlr. "2. fhe said Commentary shall be fitted for common use* by all men, and in the pre paration of it, free use may be made of all material that may exist; the design being to prooure not so much what may be original, as what may he, est in the way of enlight• ening and saving men.

Church at -the next stated !fleeting; reepectiVely, and the said - Synods Shall, upon careful consideration, nominate to the said Board of Publication any number of their own members not to exceed five from any one Synod, of such as they shall consider qualified to nnt;ertake the- work, and tha Board of Publication may add not. more' than foitr, in addition W.:the whole number thus nominated to it, and it shall communicate the list of names thusobtained by sifting the Church, to the General a As. amiably, at its next stated meeting, in May. of next year, making,.at.the same time, and from year to year thereafter, report of its doings under and by virtue of this minute. "4. The General Assembly "of 1859, will take such further order in the premises, es. pecially with regard to selection of persons out' of the list communicated to it, to the distribution of the work amongst „them, and 'to all things needful for its effectual prosecu tion, as shall seem'most expedient." It is evident, from the very nature of this propeeal,4:s well as from the arguments of its advocates, that it conteniplatrsan exposi tion of• the whole Scripture, to which sisal be given the sanction of Churph authority. If the-mere suggestion of such an idea does not strike a, man dumb with awe, he must be impervious to all argument: -It is a' fear ful thing to give Church authority even. to articles of faith gathered' train the general sense of ,Scripture. ,, How large a part tof the Church universal, or. even of the Church of England, can conscientiously adopt the Thirty: Nine Articles in their -true sense? How do we get along with ,our, more ex tended-Confession ? We could , not hold , to gether a week, if we made the adoption of all its propositions a sionditihn of ministerial communion. - How is it swith,ther.marriage question If it is not only difficult but im. possible to , frame a creed as extended as the Westminster Confession, which can ',be adopted - in all its details: by the ministry of any large body of Christians, what shall we say to' giving the sanction of the Church -to a given interpretation of every psssage of Sortpture ? This is , more,than all the Popes, who ever lived, merged in one, would dare to propose. , •It is a thousand fold more than Rome, when most drunk With pride, ever ventured to-attempt. Where is there such , a thing? who has ever -heard =of- such a thing , as a Church •Commentary? Thera must be some mistake about this matter The proposition otanmotmean what it appears to mean, sod whatson3e at least, both of its advocates nor opponents, understood it to'. mean. We cannot persuade ourselves that any one, having the- least idea of the nature of the work, any apprehension of what it is, to come to a clear conviction, even for one self, what is the true interpretation of thou sands of texts of Scripture, how many questions of philology, of grammar, logic, of geography, history, antiquities, of the am alogy of faith and of Scripture, which such decision involves,- could, for a moment, dream of the possibility -of a Church ex position ;:of the whole Bible. The proposal, on the part of any man, or any body of men, to give an authoritative interpretation of un lulfi I , d prophecjs, of the visions of Ezekiel,. Zechariah, Daniel, and John, would be proof that God had given him or them up to strong I delusion. No amount of inspiration ever granted to man would justify such an as sumption. The prophets themselves did not understand- their own predictions. The apostles, though rendered infallible in what they taught, were as ignorant, it may be, -as other men of what they did not teach. The Scripturefrwere as much an unfathomable sea of 'Divine,knowledge to them as=they are to us - It , willo no: doubtlobta taidrithatthekmieva above given of the design of the proposed Couttoentary is exaggerated and distorted. lt_ is very probahle.rhat the proposition lies in the tniotis of its advowitett in lb very dif. ferent form from that which it presents to others We are speaking of it Eis it lien in the record, and as` it was exhibited in the apeechea of those; tv,ho ufged int •adoptior.

This is a fatat,objection 'to the *hole soheme, for - the Church - will never submit, unless God has withdracin from her ' the spirit of wisdom and of a sound mind, to have imposed upon her the interprets. tions of . any .man, as of authority in the .reading of the Scriptures. Besides this, the object aimed at is not only inconsistent with the liberty 'of believ ing, but it is utterly impracticable. It is said the Bible is, to be interpreled according to the. Church's sense of the Westminster Corifession. Bat whoa is to tell us the , Churcb's sense' of the Confession ? It is notorious, that as to that point , we are not agreed. In the second plane; even, as to points in which the sense of the Confession is plain, there is want of entire concurrence in its receptioi; and what is the main point, there is no, such thing as the sense of the Westminster Confession as to the true in tereretation of thouriands of passages or Scripture. The standard is an imaginary one. What _does that Confesslon teach "of the dark sayings of Hosea, of the haptism for the dead, or the sense of Gal' iii ,; 20, concerning which an octavo volume 'has been Writt•an, giving no less than one lin dred and fifty distinct inteital4atiOns?' It is plain that there is not, and that there cannot be a standard for the interketakion of the Scriptures in detail; and therefore the Church must either submit to hive the °plut . ons of someone 'man enacted into laws to' bind the reason and conscience of all other men, or she must give up the idea 'cif 1 having a Church exposition of theHible. Admitting,--however, that such a l work desirable, and that: it. is : . practicable, where are the mem:to ;be found to execute tbe task? It is proposed' that each Synod _should ; nom bate Ive of its, own membere.for•the vrork,.. some one hundred and ~ s ixty „in all. .We Nenture to say,..that instead of our Church being able- to firnish a hundred men fit for such a work as this. it 'does not contain, and never has contained, any, one such man.., It is bad enough • for, any ~poor. sinner, after all his study, to undertake toTreeent his own. private judgment as to the meaningof Scrip ture, and to state the reasons for his opin ion, leaving all other: men to•judge,for them selves, to receive or reject his interpretation as they may see fit. But to assume, to act as the mouthpiece ,of., the Church in, this matter, to say what the Church believes .as• to• the meaning of each text of Scripture, and what all its members,, therefore, are bound to receivelis its Meaning, is a ,task which none but an idiot or . an angel , would dare to undertake.
