I'ref•hyteries are the fountr,ios of power in Church, and their uctiou iu regard to anv question •of ecclesiamical policy which may arise, the proper exponent of the mind of the Church. Now, as the policy of our roarde, in the employment of -Score thries and scents is the 4ollectiou and die hursernent of money for the great purposes o f their creation, has become the suojeet of public attention and discussion in at least two of our leading religious journals, would it not behest For the Presbyteries, attheir approaoh ing Fall meetings, to give some suitable ex pression of their views on this matter, and especially in regard to the Associate Secre taryship in the Board of Domestic Missions, to which the 'General Assembly called the attention of the Board, last Spring ? Let their expression, whatever it may be, in re gard to the particular question, be calm, courteous, dignified, and firm, as becometh men professing godliness, and having the true honor and usefulness of our Boards,, and, in general, the best interests of the Church, deeply at heart. And, moreover, let the old, but wise and significant maxim have its just influence, in view of all encroachments of power, " Obsta It might be well, also, to remember that it is not open, fair, and manly discussion, in a Christian spirit, of the concerns of our. Boards, that is so likely to cripple the Church in her operations, by drying up the resources of Christian benevolence, as the ore. ation of needless and expensive Aces in our Boards, and the bestowing of large salaries on mere place-men. Should the Presbyte ries speak their mind- on this subject, it might , be a guide to further action in our Boards, and a salutary lesson to the Church's servants in all coming time. A FRIEND OF THE BOARDS. Ter the It oebrterleu &miler anti iulTooste. Meetings of Presbytery . and Synod. DEAR BROTHER :--Twenty four years ago, the following letter was published in the Christian Advocate. Many of the brethren thought it did good. The meeting of the . Pittsburgh Synod, that Fall, was one of the most precious , it ever enjoyed. I send the letter to be published again, if you think beet. Yours, truly, J. "Dear Brather:—A few days since, I received a letter from a beloved brother, reproving me, and himself too, for our un profitable behavior at the meetings of Pres. bytery, Synod, &a. This reproof I feel to be just, and desire to be benefited by it., Thinking it may not be•ueeleas, I have eon. eluded to send out a general reproof on this subject, to all whom it may concern. “The meetings of these Judicatories are intended to promote the spiritual welfare of the Church. Whatever will advance this object, fairly (dahlia their attention.. And what so well calculated to promote the in terests of the Church at large, as a revival of piety among her ministers and , elders ? Does it not properlybelong to Presbyteries and Synods, to do what they can to secure this revival.? Getterally, our meetings are seasons of mere business, and often a very dry, unpleasant business. They tend rather to chill, than to warm the affections. And frequently ,this is their actual influence. Very seldom do our ministers seem to be any more lively, or devoted, or zealous, after these meetings, than before. One great reason of this is, that , while we are togethei we pay but little attention to religious im provement. We have but few meetings that are strictly religions; in some Presby teries, none at all. In others, as well as in Synod, only part of a day is devoted to re ligious exercises. And who, that has at tended our morning prayer-meetings and our half day of religious duties at prayer--meetings, has not mourned to see the slender number, and the - want of life, hn such occasions? What can be the causes, and what may be the remedy, of this evil ? Among the causes, the following have occurred , to my mind,: "1. We do not go to these meetings with proper designs. We go merely because we are bound to do so, intending to spend the tedious time with as gOod a grace as poisible. We go to discharge out duty as members of a Church Court, or buisiness meeting. We do not think of using every possible means' to advance the spiritual interests of the Church. We do .not design to be engaged much in truly religious exercises. We do not expect to benefit our brethren, nor our brethren to benefit us. We do not expect to be made better, to be quickened or re. vived. Is it any wonder that we come home as we went, .or ,perhaps worse? " 2. At these meetings we are generally too much /urged. We go to them, intending to be home at a certain time ; and then our whole concern is to hurry through the bus inees by tbat,appointed time. In this way some are led -to oppose spending a day, or even half a day, in" religions duties. In deed, this spirit of impatience is so manifest, That our Moderators are compelled to..out short their opening and closing prayers. «8. We indulge too much in a spirit - of . levity. Affected solemnity, I despise. But there is a gravity and seriousness, which ministers and elders ought always to mani fest. But I am sorry to say, that the re verse of this is sometimes witnessed at Pres byteries and Synods. Oar conversation, though not often indelicate, is rather light and trifling.--dt is, to say the least, unprofit, able. Instead of telling each other our die couragements and difficulties, oar hopes and sueoesses, our conversation is made up of an ' eedote, and every common-place matter, which seems more designed to create a laugh, than to do good. We do not pray much together. We do not talk much to gether about the state of piety in our own souls, or , in our several congregations. We do not help 'cash other forward much in the Divine life, but rather retard 'each other's progress. Our conduct in- these particulars injures our usefulness in the families where we lodge, and effectually hinders our mutual improvement. "If these be a few of the reasobe why the meetings of our Church Judicatories are so little profitable to their members, the remedy , is easily seen. We must reform. We must , go to these meetings desiring to receive spiritual benefit. . Let us go, intending to do good end get good. Let us go, I bad almost said, determined to be blessed. Let us prepare for these meetings by earnest prayer;and let us,go to' them, resolved, not to be ome on a certain day, but to remain as long as the interests of the Church may re• quire. Let us avoid all levity, all idle, tri fling conversation. Let us engage much in religious exercises ) both in private, and all united. Let it be our great object 'to pro mote our personal piety, to secure a revival of religion in our own souls. " That these meetings might be, and ought to be, employed in this way, I have no doubt. If our ministers and elders sbould come home from every meeting of Presby tery and Synod with their hearts rearmed; their faith strengthed, their zeal enlivened, their whole souls revived, what a blueing it would be to the churches ! The time for these meetings will soon be here, and 04 look forward to them with deep interest. Shall they be dry and hardening, as ton often heretofore? Or shall they be cheering and blessed in their influence? "I, the most unworthy and the most con demned by these remarks, would affec• tionately urge my brethren solemnly to con sider this subjeot. This is an intensely sol emn time.. While the Spirit of the Lord is wonderfully poured out in some parts of the land, from others it is sadly withheld. This is mournfully true in regard to much of this section of the Church. The state' of piety is lamentably low. low earnestly ought all to pour forth the prayer, 'Revive thy work, 0 Lord !' Where may we ex pect a revival of religion to commence, but among God's people ? And might it not, ought it not, to begin among the ministers and elders of the Church ? And should not the meetings of our Church Courts be employed for accomplishing this object? If our meetings this Fall should be blessed in this way, and a pure and powerful revival of genuine religion should spread through this whole region, how precious and exten sive would be its influence 1 We are some what noted for our soundness in the faith. But it is said our orthodoxy has no living piety along with it Let us cast off this re proach, and stop the mouths of gainsayer's by seeking the outpouring of Gad's Spirit, and by laboring, both privately in our dif ferent spheres, and when collected together in our meetings, to promote a mighty and glorious revival of God's work.

A writer in the Ledger goes largely into the statistics of the Foreign Trade, of -our principal cities, for the last thirty-eeven years. New York stands, first, having about seven times that of Philadelphia, and Boston is second, having about the double of. Philadelphia. Philadelphia , ranks third, then New Orleans, Baltimore, Charleston. The foreign trade- of - Philadelphia is now, not equal to what it was, thirty-seven years ago. In response,. the editors of the Ledger say " The facts' presented' in• the communication probably tell the:truth as far as they go, but they do not tell the whole truth. A oity may be rich and prosperous without foreign commerce, as our own city proves, for it is rapidly advancing by its own industry. A nation also may thrive and be prosperous without any external trade. Both may be great consumers as well as great pro ducers, and though the custom house entries may be small, yet the ability to supply, their own wants cheaply, without the necessity of exchang ing their productions with their neighbors, would certainly not imply a less profitable employment of their industry, or less -general prosperity. Philadelphia is a great producer. Her manu facturers alone,amount to an annual production of one hundred and seventy-one millions of dol lars in value. The trade which arises from this vast production does not show on the custom house books of the port, but the evidences of , it are seen all around, in the growth of the-city, the extent of the population, and the large edifices erected in every quarter to facilitate the industrial operations-which produce this wealth. The fact that New York has a greater foreign commerce than Philadelphia, does not prove that Philadel phia disposes of less foreign merchandise, or that her domestic business is hiss. She ohooses to make use of the port of New York for conve nience, as Other internal cities do, but the im portations through that city intended for the mar ket of Philadelphia, amount annually to nearly forty millions of-dollars. This helps to swell the figures at the custom house of New York, but the real profits of that amen= of trade belong to Philadelphia exclusively." Washington.

She rejoiced in the anticipation of death, and departed with bright hopes of a bliss ful immortality. - Although she. was for nine months previous to her departure entirely` con fined to her bed' by paralysis, she Scarcely; ever uttered a.complaint ; she seemed to fear that murmur should_ escape her lips. Her end was another heart.eheering exaMplificsation of the power of. religion to enable the Christian to tri umph.over the, King of Terrors, whilst looking by faith to Atim.Tho is conqueror of death and hell, and : the way of entrance into, the mansions of glory, DIED-At her residence. in Perry County, Pa., on Saturday; the 24th' of April Mrti. sxooA llit'CosnaWin the 59tic year. of her - age. She was for many years a member of 'the Pres byterian Church, and an exemplary. Christian. Sha let her light shine. She was Inimble,gentle, kind, affectionate, cheerful, hopeful, faithful. She loved God's people, hie Word; his sanetuaiy. Her house was one of prayer and praise. She left behind, her a family of six sons and daugh ters, all of whom, together with are members of the Presbyterian Church, and giving good evidence of , genuine faith., on the evening of her death, and but a short time before it oc curred, Mrs. M'Connell seemed cheerful and well. About 8 o''cloek she spoke to her family, of retiring soon, as preaching would be, at an early. lour on the coming Sabbath, (she , lived at a considerable distance from the church,) and added that she herself Withed to attend. Doubt less she did attend the placa'of. worship lin that Sabbath, but it was in the upper sanctuary; for before the Sabbath had begun , on earth, she, as we confidently believe, had begun " it Sabbath that shall never end." C. DIED—At his residence, near LeeWinirg Arm; strung Connty, Mr. Rom= PAntis, in the 90t1 year of his age. Mr. Parka was - born in York Coupty, married in Mifflin, CI., and in 1814, with a family of ten children, emigrated to Annatreng County. 'Being a man of - More than ordinary intelligenoe;lic6irsa called to lake' an'importsuit`Part in mil- and po' litical interests. He was remarkably cheerful, even to the last years of his life, and his family circle was always pleasant to connexions and strangers. He had a distinct recollection of the events of the Revolution, and dwelt with pleasure on the active part his father took in the eventful transactions of that day. Though always free to express his feelings on the subject of religion, it was not until the Summer of 1848 that he saw his way clear to connect himself with the Church. He then, with his wife, joined the Presbyterian church of Leechburg. He wys permitted to en joy herwociety in this relation but a short time ; she died in the Fall of '47, leaving good evidence that she was prepared for the change. From the time of his connexion with the church, he was inclined to speak of religion as a matter of expe rience, and the distinct source of his reliance, as death approached, could not be mistaken. “Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord."
