College Endowment MEt EDITOR the present oommuni• cation, it is intended 'merely to present` • few suggestions, additional,to what has been said by your correspondent, ."John,"' in ref erence, especially, to toe anion of. Colleges. The importance of a' union between Jeffer• eon and Washington Cotleg'es 'cannot readily he over rated, as many - fronda of both In. stitntions see and aoknowle'dge. The amount of endowment proposed, ($500,000,) is by no means too much,; for such an. Institution as ought to be bad,-and mibiwbettacjoiro• bided 'a plan of ntltSit, 4610011,0 the cordial cooperation of the t sfriendsOf both Colleges, can be devised. But without such a plan, "John" is undoubtedly right in saying, that "hut little can be done, and perhaps nothing should be attempted," to ward securing such, an endowment. He then proposes a plan of union; yet is evi dently not wedded to that, or to any plan ; but in common with many Other good and ,far-seeing men, earnestly wishes to have the proposed union effected on some plan. He adds: " Probably no plan can be de vised that will be free from difficulties." Special attention is called to this statement; for it is very evident, that if, in the present condition of our College,affairs, we wait till all difficulties disappear, there will never be a union. A real union in sentiment, feel ing, and interest, as matters now stand, im plies, in the very nature of the case, a choice of inconveniences, as compared with what might be, in an enterprise entirely new, and on ground not pre•neeupied: All that can be reasonably even hoped for, in the present case, is a plan attended by only such inconveniences as shalrnot be deemed 'nsuperable by either party. In looking sound for snob a plan, let us first determine What may be assumed as postvlateß, in The solution of the problem before us. Such Appear to be the following proposiklooe; 1. That, as matters now stand, each Col -lege can continue to live along, as it has of late been doing, without union; that neither 'will, consequently, submit to being absorbed I .y the other; that, in view of a union, each 4ossesses some advantages which the other does not; and that each would bring "into , the firm," an average amount of advantages about equal to those of the other.' 2. That there is no use in attempting a i . , nion except on principles fair, just, and honorable to both parties. 2. That the local interests of the two owns are the chief hindrances in the, way. f union; and that ,nct' i plan is ,practicahle, hioh would saorifieftheaduterestsof eithert r both. 4 That a plize"tlirt..., he corditalintr ofierlffiet tl & Oen` ~the' More must honestly and fairly divide,,both, the advantages of pioftt between the towns, and of honor between the, colleges To all familiar with the ground; and with this College subject, it is believed that, these propositions will need, no , Proof. , In , the light of these, as postulates, then, let us pass, briefly in review the various plans of union, which have been at different times.,,Strg gested. 1, The plan suggested hy,your recent cor respondent, "John," viz : the united Col. lege removed to one place—a Female Semi- nary instituted as a substitute in the other. 2. To take the College , proper to one, of the places, leaving the preparatory depart- ment, with a Law School, and perhaps a Sci entifio School attached, at the other. 3. An extension of the second, viz.: To unite the Colleges on the University method; divide the University into two Schools, :one at Canonsburg, the other at Washington; one of these Schools to consist of the Pre• paratory Department, Freshman and Senior Class ; the other of. the Sophomore and Junior Claes, together with a Scientific School of a high order, embracing also an English Department, in which should be thoroughly taught, Grammar„ (in its•higher applications) Belles Lettres, Rhetoric, Logic and Elocution ; the studies to be so arranged that the studies of the Scientific and Eng lish School would be included, (so far as required,) in the Sophomore and Junior years of the regular class, and thus far avoid the necessity of employing two seta of Pro fessors. If the place for each School cannot be agreed on, let the matter be determined by umpires, or by lot. 4. To withdraw both Colleges from the places where they now are, and locate the united College elsewhere. • All who receive our postulates, as such, will see, at once, that the first, second, and fourth of these plans are impracticable. At. tention is therefore called to the third—yet with all due deference to the opinions of others—by one who has had.the opportunity of becoming familiar with "the oats and the ins" of both sides of this union question, as the only plan, in its outline features at least, on which union can be secured at all. True, it is open to objections, such as the want of complete unity in the system of instruction and government, &v. Perhaps such objections might not be found in prac tice so great as some apprehend. At any rate, u a choice of inconveniences," is all that any plan can present, under existing circumstances. Does this, one present the fewest and the least of any practicable plan ? It is believed so; and further believed that its adoption would secure advantages many and great, which the continued existence of two separate Colleges will never secure. These advantages will not now be pointed out. The intention is, +GI suggest, not to argue. If the puplic mind is ripe for union, suggestion is all that is needed; if not, no argument would be availing. meth. od medium eoolesiastical basis—the meth. .od of Ippointing Trustees,.and of managing the affairs of. the College generally, (either those methods presented by "John," or some modification thereof,)—the mettiod of securing the funds—the propriety of inviting the. Synod\ of the United Presbyterian, Church to eo'eperate, as a oo•ordinate , Syn• od, if its members should be disposed so to do—are passed decer for the sake of brevity. If "the main question" of union can be carried, on thepla4bove suggested or any i other plan, it s confidently believed that all questions connote\ therewith, can be eatistaotorily settled. \ "Au humble aontribrttion," to use the language of "John," has-.thus been made toward—the union of our two Colleges. Have the friends of each "a•miod to the wort?" If h'o, the work can be done; if =I not, it cannot be done. Some incooven iences must.be expected and endured We need not expect to , gain both. power and velocity; but like , the 'engineers: who are accomplishing inch miihty material - results in ihe present day, , r ive mayigain,power at the expense of velocity—a power mightier, far, than that secured by any mechanical combination—a. power shalt.b6 felt in ing,reaeing degree, to the end of time. Have the friends of each "College a mind to the work,? If so, ,let ; tl34m approach it in the gettuiae Firifit or frankness and Christian ferhesranceeaehr party "doing as it would bt ii 4lone byin ~ A reopportuttity of praCtioing eV Uhl liVOltuch IL* eltensiVerseile, and._ with such - importifiet-resitits,'"Yarely occurs. Let the parties meet r if they hove a mind to the work—meet in the, genuine spirit of the Golden Rule—neet in mid.oeean, on fair terms, and undismayed by previous fail: urea ; meet with clear heads, warm and hon est hearts, and strong hands; commend their cause to the blessing of God, who alone can give success to the effort, and peradven ture, this time, the cable may be laid. WORK. Tor the Presbyterian banner and Advocate. "John " on. College Endowment. I am not at present prepared to express a decided opinion as to the feasability of the plan propsed for a union of our two colleges. I write only to suggest a modification of it, which I am satisfied will commend it the more to the favorable consideration of the friends of Jefferson. " John's" plan would confine the appointment of the Trustees ex clusively to the. three Synods now covering the: territory occupied by : _the old Synod of Pittsburgh. In this he ent;rely ignores the fact that others besides Presbyterians of the General Assembly, have been among the firmest friends and patrons of the College at Qanonsburg i from its very foundation I refer especially to the Associate and. Asso ciate Reformed Presbyterian bodies, now forming the United. Presbyterian Church. What objection could " John," or any one else, have to suet' an enlargement of his plan as would allow a representation in the Board: from that body 7 The utmost bar: many has always, existed In, the. Jefferson Board, although embracing representatives from the different branches of the great Presbyterian family. And why should it net be so in a Board constituted as "John proposes ? Let it' be. understood that sueh a number of members as - might be a due pie- Salon, should be appointed from 'each of the qynods, natned, and also from the United Pretillyterian Synbd,” - (and even from the Reforied _Presbyterian, 'should llan. two Mew , beeomi united ), atiddlpitJthe Itaine It lk I .1:046ff:te.,. th;seT 161110 sir • rem p n re a Live proportions; and a basis we b. secured for harmonious and effieie n in sustaining a great Presbyterian Institution, worthy of. the times, and of the vast population belonging to the Presbyte rian family in this region. The plan, as thus modified, would b recommended by its being ,a sort of corn . . promise between.. the friends of exclusive ecelesdamtical control, and those oppOsed all such control. The Board thus appointe , would be, just as indeperident in its odic.. as is the present Board of Jefferson, and yet sufficiently ecclesiastical in its relations to satisfy all reasonable demands on thateseore. Indeed it is only some such plan of join representation that would be likely to meet with, any favorable considerition from the friends of Jefferson. They .will not, and ought not, to be willing to alienate from themselves such worthy and efficient friends as the brethren of the old pscilin singing bodies. That snob a plan would not unttoOept able to the Jefferson Board, might be in ferred from.a declaration of thit Board i their response to the. application of the Synod of Pittsburgh, in 1863, baying refer ence to au ecclesiastical .connexion between that Synod and Jefferson College. Although for ' weighty reasons most respectfully de ' clinine the proposed Synodical supervision, the Board say that, "in order to satisfy those who think that the Church is the safest depository for funds, we are perfectly willing, and would• propose, that any funds which the Synod may see proper to raise for the endowment of a professorship or for eoholarships in-this Institution, shall be held under the mire and control of the Synod, and be subject to withdrawal whenever ap plied in a way that does not meet the ap probation of that body. We are likewise willing to enter into a similar engagement with the other ecclesiastical bodies repre sented in this Board." I would only add•that the proposed plan, as thus modified, 'vrould , also open the way, if desirable, for the-- abaorption. Of — the highly respectable Female Seminary of Mrs. Hanna. at Washington, into the great " Fe male College," to; be established in' that place. A PunsnYTERTAN. Tor the Presbyterian Banner and Advocate Washington and Jefferson Colleges. Several articles have appeared in the Ban ner on the subject of the union of the above named Colleges. No doubt two Colleges are not needed in the same County; but they exist, and that not by the act of the present generation. They are bosh said to be flourishing. They are carrying on their work in peace. I understand the fraternal intercourse, which ought to take place be tween the fficers of Christian Colleges, does take place, especially between the Execu tives of the Colleges. Why disturb this pleasant state of things by efforts at union which will probably , fail, • not through want of a right disposition on ,either part, but in consequence of past oc currences. .over which the present parties have nor control 7 • • Will it not then be'bettei for the cause of education and of Presbyterianism, that no more articles should appear on this topic; but that the Mods of each College should' strive to build up their favorite institution ?

(Tr i e n Mi ferre • :other idietkor: res, terians. adopted:'measures to exclude. thern - from communion in sealing ordinances, courtesy, now, rather requires some notice of your declarations, and arguments. Those to whom you have alluded do not wish to treat you as unworthy of regard, especially since your Testimony is to be a permanent document, intended, in part, to testify against others for successive generations, and to present them as in error. In your united counsel and legislation on the Article*" Of Communion," you refer to some outside of your communion " who pro. fess an adherence to the Confession of Faith ;" and then again to' 4 many who pro fess the Presbyterian name;" and then in your Article on Psalmody you speak of your "opposition ". to " thoge,who profess an ad herence* to the Confession of Faith." All this is consistent with your assumption to 'be "The Church," and, " The United Prisbyte rian Churoh." But when in your " con clusion" Jou speak kindly of " our breth ren of the Presbyterian family from whom we [you] are irr a state of separation," you relinquish the idea of beirig the whole uni ted Presbyterian Church, and your better feelings are in opposition to"your Article on Communion. Netwithstanding that article ktawbeeome a part of your Testimony, eon , trary to the Scriptures, contrary to the twen ty•eixth chapter of your, own Confession, contrary; to the spirit of this Christian, age, and the indications of duty by, Providence, there is.reason to believe that hundreds now in your. Church would depart from its re strictions, and that thousands eventually under teachings of the Holy SPirit, in Christian down this eepar ating wall, and extend communion "unto all those , who, in every pface, call upon the name of the Lord Jesus." Brethren, it is a vain :thing, with, such a "Declaration," "argument and illustration" as you make; or, with , any other human power to-perpet uate divisions, which began in opposition , to God's' Will, but must and Will; by' his pnWer t be'healed, O j urpresent 41404 1 On; Ws4 alipiiKih6ukkoki Lr i V 01 proceed to give your tleclaration in full:: "We declare that the Church should not extend communion' in'sealing'ordinancee to those who refuse_ adherence, to 'her prates- lion, or subjection to her government and discipline, or who refuse to forsake &com munion which is inconsistent with the pro- fession that she makes; nor should commu nion in .any , ordinance of worship be held Hader such circumstances as would be in- consistent withs the keeping• of these ordi nances pure and .entire, or so as to give countenance to any corruption of the doc trines and institutions , of Christ:" lathe first past of,this declaration, you make "adherence" to your Church's "prd fession," necessary to ".communion in Seal ing ordinances." How is this to be recori oiled with part of the preamble in Your adopting act, which agrees that " forbear .ance" is to be exercised toward an'y breth ren who may not be able fully, to subscribe to the Standards of the United Church? It would`appear from Ibis that some in Your Church not fully subscribing the Standards, may have forbearance and communion, though the declaration says that communion is not to be extended except there is " ati; .herence to her profession." This is another inconsistency. Farther: it would appear that " any brethren" in the Church in error, may have forbearance; but any person out of it in the, same error, no forbearance. That is, error is tolerated in your brethren in the Church, but not so in those who are out of it. The latter can, according to the declaration above, have no communion, if they " refuse to forsake a'communion which is inconsistent with the profession she makes." But if they will only come over, they can haVe forbearance. So it has been heretofore. A person getting a certificate from a Presbyterian Church would be ad naitted without any .change of sentiment. In the transition, his motors evaporated. OnCe; a member leaving one of your church es, to go with her. husband, was, the next day, refused corainunion. Certified in god ,1 -staelling-etardnY,ly the next she was tin wohthereafter, I propose to, examine your Scripture authority for your Article on close communion, to.review your specifications of history from the acts of ,the Westminiter Assembly of 'Divines and to show there is no authority from ;hence • fo'r close com munion; but the very opposite. Justice to your "brethren of the Presbyterian family," and a desire to rectify your mistakes, re quire further examination of your testimony, by which you exclude, the largest part of confessedly the most sound and pions men and women of dilferent branches of the Church from the Lord's table. It is rather necessary to enter a defense against those who trouble us about certain points which should be viewed, as they were by Rev. Dr. Pressley, of Allegheny City, in a former letter to Rev.
