EASTERN SUMMARY.
BOSTON AND NEW ENCILAND,
The Masearhusetta Temperance Society has just
its annual 'meeting. The attendance wee
d, and much interest was manifested in the
•ordings. The proposition to nominate a
ope.rance ticket, to be supported this Fall,
I voted The great means of ituocess
+ admitted to be the force of moral suasion;
still the establishment and enforcement of the
ine Law was not to be neglected.'
de3grs. Little & Brown have in press a new
enlarged edition of •Barileere Dictionary of
orieonieme. These are increasing frightfully,
our ordinary use of language. Indeed; some
tics contend, with no inconsiderable show of
'deuce, that "the English spoken at Boston,"
it appears in the columns of the Courier, the
Jertiser, and the Atlantis Monthly, and in the
!clies of Mr. Choate, is by no means remark-
Le for purity, and exhibits a strong admixtere
improprieties and foreign ingredients. The
)don Saturday Examiner, and the Philadelphia
-th American, have been giving their readers
remarkable examples or " Boston Erglish."
Jr. Tared Sparks is busily engaged in ex
:lag the materials collected by him in his late
t to Holland, France, and England, for the
or illustration .of our revolutionary annals..
The value of the Boston Newspapers, to esti
i.ed in the tax list, is as follows! Journal,
,000 ; Herald, and ?transcript, $BO,OOO each ;
veller, $20,000; Post; $18,000; Advertiser,
1,000; Courier, Bee, and Ledger, less than

he enterprise and policy of the publishing
ae of Phillips, Sampson ?. Oo , may be learned
the fact that their advertising bills from
1856, to July, 1857, amounted to $12,000;
from July, 1857, to July, 1858, to $B,OOO.
this period they advertised in three thousand
?leers. They also furnish to the press, for
mini notices, from three hundred to one thou
copies of every book they publish. Indeed,
fifteen hundred copies of the Atlantic Monthly
distributed in the same way. And the success
has followed their efforts in this way, have
Id the wisdom of the course ndopted. If
shers and merchants keep from the public a
!edge of what they have for its use, they
not think it strange that they are not pat-

mn,nufaeturing towns of New England in
Female Operatives are employed, are under
quite a change. The neat, active, and tidy
girls that once flocked to them, have had
opportunities opened to them, and their

Irish girls ; so that a distinct manufao
class is rapidly appearing in many towns,

has been generally supposed that the Firat
lent made in New England was that at
Jth in 1620 ; and indeed this was the first
can be considered a permanent success.
previously, a settlement had been madh at
~ org, Me., by Sir George Popham and one
.ed colonists from England, in August, 1607
least thirteen years before the landing of the
JR at Plymouth. At the beginning of the
)moat, a Constitution was adopted, a Gov
chosen, and a sermon preached by Rev.
t Seymour. ' The next day a fortification
iiimenced, upon which twelve guns were at
mounted, and within the limits of which
tOIIFCS were erected, The remains of this,
ration are still visible.
Aber place of note in the history of New
,nd, is Norwich, Ct., deeded from the Indian
+ions by Ulnas and his eons, for the 15 m of
.80, in 1669, and confirmed by the Gen-
Assembly of Connection', in 1871. The set
-it was begun in 1650. although the first
was not established formally until the
of 1660, when it was done by the Rev
Fitoh and tbirtyfive meo, with their fanii
mostly from Saybrook. In those days, the
ishnaent of a new settlement could not be
t of, without a minister of the Gospel and
titutions. This does much to account for
;harnoter of many of the most enterprising
of those times, and for the einem that at•

NEW YORK.
Support of olignals and the almshouse de
nt, requires av y larie expenditure. For
irtonately happens that not only do villains
Ily seek large cities for their operations,
many of the poor and infirm also wander
her with the vain expeotation of being able . to
.er their fortunes. The Penitentiary on
;k well's Island has at !present seven hun-
I and eight convicts in its four hundred and
'tysix cells. And there are now in the Alms
le department seven thousand three hundred
thirty-seven inmates; being an increase of
hundred and 6 fty-six over the number reported
the same time last year.
Loud Complaint& are made of the 'estertlorm on
-1q lying at the Quarantine grounds. The
of some of the rioters is in progress, and
;11 sympathy has been excited in various ways
lg those who attend, as the evidence pro
les. Much care is still taken to prevent the
ing of vessels from infected ports. But, as
taw when an epidemic threatens a large city,
necessity for increaled cleanliness is most
lonely discussed, however it may be over
;ad at other times, and many contend that a
per regard to the condition of streets, lanes,
3 95, and sewers, would be the best possible
rantine protection.
The Book Trade Sales were quite lively. The
tendance of buyers was large, arid the prices
e remurievative.
Among the interesting features of New York
Brooklyn, are their. Schools, both public
wivate, which have jdet opened for a uew.
In New York there are three hundred
Ala schools, and in Brooklyn, one hundred ;
Ind into these four hundred schools, eighty thou.
sand children have already entered for the pres.
ant term; In these two cities, there are also one
hundred and fifty private schools, having about
lye thousand inmates. What an important work
is before those wbb have the care of this great
interest! And bow blameworthy are many al
our most influential citizens for the little concern
they manifest about the obstacles of the schools,
teaders, and books, that are to ettert such a
powerful kfluenoe on the life and ;destinies of the
rising generation I ;
The Friday evening and Saturday of last week
were solemn hours to many - of the descendants of
Abraham, in this vicinity. For this was, to them,
the Day of Atonement, which diff,:rs from other
Sewieh festivals, in lasting only twenty four
hours, but during which time no food, nor drink
of any kind, may be taken. During this period,
from sunset on Friday evening to sunset on Sat•
urday evening, all the men and women, and all
the children over thirteen years of age. observe a
strict fast. The origin of this custom may be
found in Lev. xvi : 29, 850., and there is also an
allusion to it in xxiii : 26, &o. It is not strange
that the Jews should regard this day with the
greatest awe; for when they were in Jerusalem
the temple services of this festival, were most im
posing. This was the only day of the year on
which the High Priest was allowed to enter the
holy of holies, or to pronounce the dietinotive
name by which tha.God of the Jews was known;
on any other day he dared not to utter it. The
prayers offered up during this observanee consist
chiefly of confessions of ein,*and of imploring the;
Divine mercy to pardon them. The whole num
ber of Jews in the world, at present, is 'estimated
at four millions six hundred and ninety thousand,
souls, of whom two millions four hundred and
fifty.one thousand one hundred and seventy-nine
are in Europe, making the one hundred and tenth
part of the whole population
It is well known. that the Episcopal Church, in
this country, consists of two parties, the High and
the Low• Church. Now each of these parties has
its organized newspaper, and its own list of re
ligious publications. The Churchman, the Ban
ner of the Cross, and the, Gospel Messenger, are
the lending organs of the Ffigh.Church wty.
While the Christian Witness, the Episcopal Record
er, the Southern Churchman, and the. Protestant
Churchman, are the principal organs of the Low-
Church peaty. The " Church Book society" is
patronized by High Churchmen, and the "Evan
gelical Knowledge Society," by the Low• Churc
hmen.
We take the following deeoription of Dr
Spring's. New 'Church from the Express:
Rev. Dr. Spring's church, on the corner of
Fifth Avenue and Thirty-Seventh Street, will be
opened for pubic worship about November Ist.
The steeple will be finished next week. when the
cap-stone, weighing two thousand five hundred
pounds, will be put in its place. The whole will
he surmounted by a gilt vane and ball, Although
it is two hundred and fifty feet high, the work is
of such substantial masonry that it' has not set
tled one sixteenth of an inch.
The edifice will be lighted by one large gilt
chandelier of one hundred lights. There are one
hundred and forty-six pews, capable of seating
one thousand two hundred persons. Soagliola
columns arrayed behind the pulpit, support a.
coved, ceiling, in the centre of which is placed the
old tablet, renovated and gilded, inscribed 4, Holi
ness to the Lord." The effect is very fine. The
entrance, front vestibules and hall, are i.. 11 laid
with marble; and the stairs are of solid oak; of
easy ascent, constructed on the plan adopted in
Our first-class dwellings. Several rooms are pro
vided fel' the minister, committees, &o , alto an
iron safe for the sacred Vessels. The lecture
room is in the rear, having its entrance from
Thirty Seventh Street, withschool•rooms above it.
It is ft: pleasant circumstance that the old "church
going t ell" has been retained for the new steeple,
and is likely to call worshippers together for
many years to come, as it has for a long time
pet. Sperry has been employed to put in the
steeple one of his best clocks, with an illuminated
glass dial, and works BO arranged as to light and
extinguish the, gas without superintendence. The
cost of the church will be about $140,000, exclu
sive of the land.
PHILADELPHIA
The city is still rich in The Remains of Former
Times, although no great care has been taken
toward their preservation. But little attention
was given to Independence Had until a few years
ago, but now it is in proper condition, and open
to thousands of visitors, who continually flock to
it. But the Slate-ltoof house on the corner of
Second Street and Norris' Alley, formerly the
residence of William Penn, and one of the finest
specimens yet remaining of the architecture of
the city in its earlier days, is now occupied by'
shops and sheds. ' The late Elliott Cresson left
$lO,OOO for.the purpose of purchasing this prop
erty and restoring it to its former condition, but
his benevolent intentions cannot be accomplished.
The country-house of Robert Norris, of Revolu
tionary memory, on Lemon Dill, although the
property of the city, is now a Lager Beer Saloon.
The house where the Philosopher, David Ritten
house, dwelt, still stands, at the North-west cor
ner of Seventh and Arch Streets. And we lately
looked upon the 'house, in the •Twenty-Second
Ward, where . Godfrey, the inventor of the Quad•
rant, was born; and walked through the old mill,
erected by the Penn family in 1688, which is still
in a good state of preservation. But it has, been
a great annoyance to a visitor in this city, to find
it so difficult to get a sight of the grave of Freak.
lin, at the corner of Fifth and Arch Streets,
without scaling a high brick wall, This will soon
be removed. A Portion of the Wok wall is to be
taken away, and an iron fepce substituted,
through which the humble tomb of one of earth's
great ones may be seen.
Some of the Episcopalian Clerfymei: have been
exciting the displeasure of their brethren in other
places, by their willingness to r ecognize the min
istere of other denoniinations as true minis- ,
ters of the Church 'of Jesus Christ. The Rev.
Mr. Carden, when at Cape May, administered the
Comminion, and was so inconsiderate as to invite
a Methodist minister to aid in the services.
This excited the ire of his worshipfulreverence,
Bishop Doane, of New Jersey, so greatly, that be
has published the offender as a transgressor of
the laws of'the Church, and forbidden him to ex
ercise his clerical functions within the mighty
Diocese of New Jersey. And the Rev. Mr. At
kins, while on a visit to Saratoga, accepted an
invitation to preach iu the Presbyterian church,
but the appointment was broken np, - -OWing to the
opposition of the Rector of the Episcopal church.
In the meantime, the Episcopal Recorder takes the
ground, that for Episcopal ministers to unite
with other ministers in religious services, and to
be- resent s.ed take past in .ells-lo u s verviceu
where the Prayer Book is not used, is not con
trary to the law of - the Church, and is supported
by the example of Bishop White; ;knd other
founders of the American Episcopal ChUrch.
However this may be, it is certain that one party
in that Church is becoming more and more intol
erant and presuming.
A Baptist Minister, the Rev. William Cathoart,
of the Second Baptist church, has also been in
veighing against Baptists tlaterniing with others
in Unical meetings, and says that union is to be
sought only in the promulgation of Baptist prin.
oiples and usages.
Only a little more than a year ago, the Sectind
Presbyterian Church of Germantown was organ
ized." But since that time a lot has been secured
large enough for a churCh, a chapel, and a par
sonage, and the chapel has been completed, and
both tho lot and edifice paiclfor. The dedication
of the chapel took place on Sabbath week. In
the morning there was preaching by the Rev.
Horialb G—Kinsdale, pastor elect, from Hag. i :
14; in the afternoon, by the Rev: Br. Wadewerth;
and in•the evening by the Rev. Ur. Vandyke, of
Brooklyn, N. Y. The past mimes of the enter
prlse has been great, and the prospects: for the
future are full of hope.

DIEED—In New - London, lowa . ; on Thursday,
August 26th, Mrs. Manx 41(3116 TEECIARDION, in
the 26th year of her.age.
The deceased was born in. Green County, 'Pa.,
where she became a member of the. Presbyterian
Church tfbout six years ago,, and whence she re
moved with her family to this place early last ,
Spring. From the time she came to our village
she never left her room until carried to the grave.
Her brief sojourn, among us furnished another
illustration,of the power of Ilse Gospel to susta . ifi,,
cheer and fill the soul rlith • jo; under disappoint
ment, disease, and The • patience *4 ,
amiability manifested during her prelaseteo ill•
ness,,seemed to say, "All is well." " She, eleeps.
in Jesus and is blessed." -

At an early period of life, .Mrs. Crawford be-
Own" a ts'P7l2laabAct°f 1 1 1 71 1 ?. 0 VW') .a l 4d
imited with New Providence church, of which
she continued a steadfast and exemplary - member
until her death. The life or this excellent woman
Was ench , as evinced the amiability , of her. dispo
sition, the genuineness of her piety, and the sure
foundation of IMr hopes. To: her, Christ's ser
vice was a pleasure, his •law hey delight, his peo
,
pie her chosen companions, his presence and
glory her object of sweet and earnest expectation..
Judging from her Christian deportment we May
safely conclude , she was an Israelite indeed,rin
whom there was no guile. She died as she had
lived, calmly and peacefully confiding , J in: the
merit of.,the Redeemer, leaving 'many sorrowing
friends•to mourn her depirture. - J'Al. •

Robert Sterrett in, Tuscarora Valley, Pa., on the
28th Of June,' Mrs.' IsansnikParissison, relict
of the late John Patterson,: in' tlitt:BBteitrlof
her, age.
The deceased was oae"of the first set.tleriti in
:that bos.utiful,valley, Where her whole life - Was
'apant. At an early age, she united. with 'the
Lower Tuscarora Presbyterian ohnrah, of 'which
she continued through life a cousistent'and ex
etnplaiy member. In Consequence of long
..
protracted bodily' infirmity during the last thirty
five Years 'of her life, Mrs. Patterson was very
seldom permitted to meet with God's professed
people - in hie earthly sanctuary. During this
long period of Privation, she sought and found
great comfort and consolation in reading and
meditating on the Word of God, and Gospel
truths contained in a few standard works, which
were her constant companions. After witnessing
many and great changes, of which she retained,,
almost to the last, a vivid recollection—after
living to see Nearly all her cotemporaries pass
from time to , eternity—she went,to her " grave
in a full age, lilto,.las a shook of corn norpeth in
in his season."
