building for its Hall, Library, and Commit

the remainder of the sum necessary to the

difference of opinion, but it is most probable
that the sum required will be obtained.

/Jr. Bern . is ) Superintendent of• the State
Asylum for the Insane, at Worcester, is a
man of large experience and accurate obser•
vation, so that hie opinion on matters con
nected with insanity is of great weight. We
have always believed that the insanity_cre
atod by religions excitement was greatly
exaggerated, and have long thought that the
many oases of this kind paraded in some of
the reports, was more indicative of shalloi
thinkinginamere empiricism, than of true'
science. The remarks of Dr. Bemis, which
we quote, show the conelusien at which '
has arrived, after long and careful investiga
tion, and &leo give the explanation, no
doubt the right one, of many of the supposed ,
indications of the effect of unusual religious
excitement
We believe that the number of persons made
insane by the influence of religions hopes and
fears, has been greatly overstated. The insane
mind is frequently occupied by delusions of a re
ligious nature, when it is well known that the
cause of its derangement has no connexion with
feelings or impressions relating to a future state
of existence. No richer or wider field than the
invisible world can be offered to the gloomy misan
thrope, whose mind is already diseased—none his
Imagination will be more apt io choose to 'wander
in and - dwell on,- when the whole origin of his
derangement may have been nothing more than
the influence of dyspepsia, or some trivial reverse
of fortune.
NEW YORK.
Appearances of A Revival' of Pro& are
undoubted The old stocks of goods have
been pretty well worked off, and money is
abundant. Many have quite lei3overed from
the reverses oflast year; and confidence is
being'-gradually restored. Capitalists are
looking 'out for new investments; and mer,
&anti are in search of new avenues of
trade. And there semis to be a geneial
determination to adhere to short credits,
and encourage purchases for cash as ,much
as pAtibie, although, owing to the low
rates at which money could be had, cash
buyers have, not been favored over others, to
the degree they had expected. Great prep
orations are beginning to:be made to induce
a brrge Spring trade from the South and
West. •
The Amount of Crime brought to light on
the first 'two or three days of ea ch
. week is
appalling, and one not , acquainted with the
actual state of affairs, would be , at a loss to
account for the fact. But the explanation
is easy to any one that will notice the low
theaters, the depraved concert halls, the
billiard and card rooms, the beer halls, and
the whiskey shops, open on the Sabbath,
plying their regular business, and the groups
that congregate within them. Nor strange
is it, that quarrels, outrages, and :murders,
should spring from such a cause. The day
is given over to revelry and drunkenness,
and madness and crime are the inevitable
consequences. Notwithstandiog all that
has been done in the way of reformation,
the amount of Sabbath desecration, espe
cially in the lower parts of the city, is
appalling. Here are preparing the future
inmates of our prisons, or the objects of,
charity who will receive care and attention
from Christian hearts and willing hands.
But in the meantime; those who have caused
all this misery will have grown rich, and
gone unwhipt of justice now, although a
terrible retribution may await them in the
future.
The Report, that Horace Greeley was
about to leave the Tribune and become
connected with another paper, has been
contradicted by himself. Though wishing
to retire somewhat from the toils of the
editorial chair, for more quiet employment
at least part of his time, his associates have
been unwilling to allot, even this. There
fore he announces himself at the head of his
old journal, at least until after the next
Presidential election.
A few of the Alumni of Columbia College
are engaged in prepaiing A History of the
Graduotes of that Institution, from its
commencement, in 1759, until the present
time. Among these are found the names of
some of the mast illustrious men connected
with the annals of their country for the last
century. Alexander Hamilton, De Witt
Clinton, Washington Irving, and many
others of high repute, are numbered among
its sons.
The New York Observer lately called the
attention of the Bible and other Publication
Societies, to the fact that they had been or-
ganized for the publication and dissemina
tion of religious knowledge, especially for
the poor and destitute, and that, conse
quently the issuing of voltimes splendidly
bound, did not come within a the proper
limits of their appointment. That journal
recommended, in substance, that costly pa
per, extra typography, fine engraving, and
superb binding, be left to private enterprise
and competition, and that the Societies con
fine themselves to that department that will
enable them to supply the wants of the
great mass. Rarely have we seen a recom
mendation that has been more generally or
more cordially approved, by the different re
ligions newspapers. After all, the amount
of this kind of work done is, probably very
runell. in proportion to the whole issues, and
not a little of this may be for the accommo
dation of those who 'wish to have the Bibles
and books of the Societies in an attractive
form. However, it is quite time for' the
whole outrage of gold leaf and gilding, in
book binding, to be done away with. As
ornaments, they are altogether meretricious,
and indicative of any thing else than good
taste. The gold leaf and gilding so com•
mon in this country, would not be endured
on standard works in Europe.

The preaching in the National Theatre
on Chatham Street, continues to be well
attended, and the boys, so uproarious at first,
are beginning to learn something of the
proprieties becoming Divine worship; al
though those accustomed only to quiet and
orderly congregations on the Sabbath, be
startled no little at some of the demonstra
tions that are yet made.
The assemblages at the Academy of
Kuala, to hear the Gospel, on Sabbath even
ings, are as large as ever, and the lectures
at the Stanton Street church have been thus
far quite a success.

PHILADELPHIA
, Modern Research among State papers
and private correspeences, has done so
much to disturb histories of the past, long
and firmly believed, that the reader is often
in great perplexity as to what he should
credit, and what reject. An instance of
this kind, is found in the history of Meico.
Robertson was the first to bring to the
notice of English readers a consecutive
history of the conquest of that country,
taken . from different Spanish authorities.
He threw around it the charm of his culti
vated style, and invested it with a vague
and delightful mystery, that captivated the
imagination and awakened the sympathies of
the Seeder. In our own day, Prescott, after
a much more careful study, and a much
fuller examination of the original sources,
gave to the world one of the most attractive
and popular histories that has ever been
written. Not a few of the errors of Rob
ertson were corrected, and a full description
of Cortez and his follower was given,
together with an account of the supposed
origin, the peculiarities, the works of art,
the prowess, and the religion of the ancient
Aztecs. No reader will ever forget the
vivid picture given by this graphic writer,
of the old city of the Montezumas. But
now another writer has taken up the subject,
who promises to overturn the whole structure
reared so carefully by Robertson and Pres
cott, and to dispel all the dreams and
illusions of the Spanish chroniclers. Messrs.
Ohallen & Son, of Philadelphia, are about
to issue a new work on the conquest of
Mexico, by Robert Anderson Wilson, Court
sellor-at•Law, author of Mexico and its
Religion, the California Law Reports, Ste.
In this elaborate work, he takes the ground
that the Indian picture 'writings, of which
so much has been said, and to which so much
historical value has been attached, are of
comprativelr modern origin; that they are
the work of - Romanized, and not of pagan
Aztecs; • that the account of Gomoza, the
chaplain of Cortez, is merely a laudation of
that hero, and therefore unreliable_as history;
that descriptions and statements of Beinal
Dies, and the whole horde of monkish
writers are partly nothing more than ro
mances, and partly gross exaggerations;
that the reports of human sacrifices among
that ancient people are sheer fabrications;
that the people were of Phoenician origin,
and that their ulode of warfare was simply
the well known Indian system of surprises
and ambuscades, instead of pitched battles,
according to the historians already mentioned,
This is the same general view of the whole
subject taken by General Cass, in an article,
in the North American Review, t for.October,

The American Sunday School Union has
issued a very neat tract, l ,addressed to a pro•
&nor of religion,• on "Going to the - Opera."
Whatever may be said of the t;xcellenee of
Operatic music, in defence of tbe institution
itself, it is certain that the pieces performed
in Opera at Philadelphia, have been any.
thing but moral, and we believe the same
thing is true of the Opera, as now conducted,
in other places. The writer says :
"The most popular Opera yet produced at our
(Philadelphia) Academy of 'Music is a state of
infamy from beginning to end. And bad as it is,
there are others sharing largely in the public
favor, which are still worse. I have inquired of
several ladies whether they had ever witnessed
an Operq, in which there, was not ,some one
passage they would be unwilling to have per
formed in their awn parlors. They have uni
formly told me, Igo. And yet they can go,
night after night, and take their daughters with
them, to it through these equivocal scenes in
the presence of a heterogeneous audience, made
up of both sexes,
and all conditions!" Do you
think this right? Is there no contagion, no
taint received in this open contact with exhibi
tions of infamy ?
The American Sunday School Union,
since its organization, has prepared and put
in circulation books to the value of two
millions of dollars.
A pamphlet has been prepared by a Com
mittee of the Young Men's Christian

that will be read with much interest by all
who re3oiee in the outpourings of the Holy
Spirit. •

Ma. EDITOR:—WiII you allow me, through the
mediatn. of your excellent paper, to uppeal to the
public in behalf of an humble but important ob
ject of charity? By so doing you will confer a
favor upon the ladies engaged in this work, and
aid the cause of humanity.
An Appeal to the Public in behalf of the Allegheny
lnduatrial School
Allegheny City, with its splendid residences,
extensive manufactories, Seminaries of learning,
noble Churches and happy., homes, contains at
least five hundred bright eyed, interesting little
girls, who are, by the circumstances surrounding
them, deprived of the instruction necessary to
render them useful to themselves and to society.
The large majority of them come from homes of
the most abject poverty, where the comforts of
life are never known. . Through the want of
capacity in some, and inclination in other parents,
many of these children are entirely ignorant of
the most simple branches of housewifery, so ne
cessary to the education of women and the com
fort of home.
Some three years since, the. Allegheny Industrial
School Society . was formed, for the purpose of
gathering these children together and giving them
instruction in.sewing, singing, and on moral and
religious subjects. •
The plan of operation is to procure materials,
cut the garments necessary to children's wear,
teach them bow to make them, presenting them,
when completed, to the children.
'Much good was effected by this organization
during the past two years, reports of which have
been given to the public. The present session
commenced Oct. 80th, 1858, during which time
nearly four hundred different pupils have been
received. Three hundred and fifty garments and
pocket handkerthiefs, made by the scholars, have
been given out already. Quite a number of un
finished garments are on hand, but the funds of
the Society are , cntirely ,ezhausied, and there is a
small indebtedness which must be met. Unless
the public will aid us in this enterprise, which,
we feel, we know is effecting avast amount of good,
when our unfinished work is completed our labors
must ()ease and these poor children sink back into
the ignorance and degradation from whibh we
have labored , so hard to snatch them. Oh, ye
who are rich in this world's goods, come to Four
aid I For the love of humanity, for the future
well being of society, let this not be.the case.
We are confident there , are many
,noble, gen
erous hearts in our community' who,' could they
go with us on Saturday afternoon-and spend one
hour even, in the Industrial School, would bid - us
God speed—aiding us with their prayers and their
money. Let the storm rage never so fiercely, or
the wind blew never so piercingly, on every Sa
turday afternoon, between two and three hundred
poorly fed, scantily clad little girle may be seen
eagerly hastening to the Industrial School, or
tripping joyously down the street to their teach
ers as they "see them approaching. The great
improvement in, their department, their efforts to
please, and their sweet smiles of gratitude, more
than repay the sacrifices 'of their faithful and de
voted teachers.
We do not make this appeal for aid in ignorance
of the many objects of charity which-the public
so generously sustain ; but we do it with the re
flection that for a score of years we have ever
found this community readE to respond, to calls
for aid, for noble and useful purposes, and who
will say that this, though an humble, is yet a noble
work—the training of these little girls for time
and eternity.
We appeal then to am—especially to those
to whom God has given wealth—that they become
the ihnoners of his bounty to us, that we may
prosecute this work with success.
Any donations—orshoes, stockings, bonnets,
maferials for children's clothes, or money, will be
most thankfully received, and may, be sent to Mrs.
Dr. -Hussey, on the East Comthon, Allegheny
City ; or to Mrs. A. Anne Wade, No. 5 Jachson's

Dn. MOKTEMY :—I have been prospecting for
five weeks, and I am making arrangements to lo
cate, as pastor of the churches of Neago and
Pleasant Prairie, situated, one on either side of
the dividing line between Coles. and Cumberland
Counties, 111., My object in writing these lines,
is to direct the attention of emigrants of a Pres
byterian character, in this direction. Pleasant
Prairie is en old settlement, possessing all the
advantages of an old settlement, with good sod.-
ety,,and comfortable` billding. For a
farming community, it presents fertility of soil,
mildness' of climate, abundance of timber, and
good markets.
Neago is ,situated on a prairie, between two
large bodies of timber. Settlements are near the
timber, leaving the best of
. the prairie vacant up
to the town and railroad, awaiting the enterpris
ing husbandman to make it a fruitful field. I
find wheat and corn are cultivated to as great a
degree of perfection as in any other in the same
latitude. To a man of small means, the Railroad
Company hold out inducements to make thepay
ment from the land. Land varies in price from
eight to twenty.dollais per acre, according to sit
nation and improvements. There is also a good
opening for a merchant that will do a live-and-let
live business, on a cash and - ready-pay system.
Let Presbyterians (0.5.) come, and they will
be welcome; and bycasting their " lot " with us,
they will aid the common cause of Presbyterian
ism, and make the burden of building up Christ's
kingdom comparatively light, and have the satis
faction of a good conscience that they have lived
and labored in a noble and good cause, as well as
benefiting their estate.

A Point of Inquiry.
In a sermon preaehed by Bishop CYCnnnor in
New York, says the New York Times, of last
week, he stated that the cause of hie visit in that
city, was to collect money to assist in the comple
tion of the cathedral, in Pittsburgh, the old ca=
tbedral being, as be stated, consumed by an in
cendiary during the political excitement which
prevailed some years ago. The declaration of the
Bishop is re-iterated in the Washington Union, of
January 23d. The Bishop's statement is denied,
as to the circumstances and the cause of •the
burning, and he is called upon to retract, or 4 to
furnish proof. OnsExyzn.

The Postal Service.
The efforts of the Post Master General to raise
the Postal rates, ought to be strenuously resisted.
It would be a tax upon knowledge, which should
not be inflicted, and which freemen should not
bear. The present prices fully sustain the trans
portation of the mail in all the more densely set
tled country; and, if due economy were prac
ticed, would sustain it in the whole land Emit of
the Rocky mountains.
To send the mail on long.journeys, through
Southern swamps, and Western prairies, and over
inter•oceanic Isthmuses, and over snow capped
bills, and through wide forests traversed by wild
Indians, may be a national duty, but it should be
done at the national expense. Why should the
mail services be made self-supporting, while upon
the army and the navy are lavished tens of mil
lions
We trust that the press and the people will pro
test energetically against any increase of postage.
Washington.
The most exciting topic, xxobably, inpngress,
of a public nature, during the ; last weekovas the
Cuban Question. Bills have been introduced, in
both Houses, granting thirty'millions of dollars
to the President, with which to commence nego
tiations for the purchase of Cuba, that brightest
gem in the Spanish Crown. There is, however,
no likelihood of any serious effort being made' to
pass these bills ; or if there is, it will be for some
other purpose than that pretended. The appro
priation must be borrowed entire, if made. It
must then be followed, if a purchase shall be
made, by one hundred and fifty or two hundred
millions more; this also to be borrowed. And
then, Spain' is not disposed to sell—unless her
rulers shall be bribed. And also, she takes even
the proposition of a sale as an insult—possthly
the thirty millions are to heal the wounded 'dig
nity of her patriot:. However, there ill no bright
prospect of any thing effective being soon done.
The country is already in debt, and her income
falls many millions short of her expendituxes, even
in these times of entire peace.
Another very unbecoming scene has been
witnessed in .the Senate. The principal parties
were Senators Douglas and Fitch: The words
which passed wereliuch as, by the code of honor,
would call for a duel. Friends, however, inter

the parties, and the lowering clouds broke and
scattered—for the present.

This great medicine has supplanted 'all others
for the cure of diseases of the Liver. Its effects
are so salutary and speedy, and . at the same time
so perfectly safe, that it is not .'surprising it
should supersede all others. Invented by a very
distinguished' physician of`Virginia; who prac
ticed ilia, region of country in which Hepatis, or
Liver Complaint ; is peculiarly formidable and
common, and who had spent years in discovering
the ingredients and proportioning their quantities,
these : Pills are peculiarly adapted to every form
of the disease ; and never fail to alleviate the most
obstinate cases of that terrible complaint:. They
have justly become celebrated, and the researches
of Dr. M'Lane have placed his name among the
benefactors of mankind. No one 'having symp
toms of this formidable complaint should be with
out these invaluable Pills., Have Yoh a pain in
the right side, wider the edge of the ribs,- which
increases with• pressure—tumble to lie with ease
on the left side-=withoccasional, sometimes con
stant, pain under the shoulderblade, frequently
extending to the top of the shoulder? Rely upon
it, that although the latter pains are sometimes
taken for rheumatic, they all arise from diseases
of the Liver; and if you would have relief, go in
stantly and buy a box of Dr. M'Litne's Liver
Pills, prepared only by Fleming Bros. of Pitts

The Europa has arrived; with Liverpool dates
to the Bth inst. The North. American gives the
following summary of news:
The Emperor Napoleon's remark to the Austrian
Minister was exercising a depressing effect, not
withstanding the soothing efforts of the Moniteur,
the Emperor's official organ. The advieee from
Italy indicate a rapidly "approachinecrisis. The
Paris Bourse at one time had declined since
the new year, but was now improving. The die
tiftnietude caused by the Emperor Napoleon's men
acing words to the Austrian Minister, continued
to affect the' political and financial •world. The
panic was continued on the Paris Bourse. •On
the 7th inst., the Paris Moniteur published the for
,
lowing paragraph :—For several days public
opinion has been agitated by alarnting reports,
which it is the duty of Government to put a stop
to by declaring that nothing in the diplomatic' re-
lations authorizes the fears which these reports
tend to provoke." This caused a slight improve
• merit in the funds, both at Paris and London, but
it was only temporary, and all the improvement
was subsequently lost. It is reported that the,
French Government has sent a very threatening
note to Austria, warning her of the consequences
of Austrian troops crossing the Servian frontier&
The accounts front Italy are very alarming.
Austria is sending strong reinforcements into
Lombardy, where her garrisons- are already on a
war footing. An outbreak was anticipated at
Milan: It was rumored, but the rumor had not
been confirmed, thatthat city was in a state of
siege, and that great agitation existed likewise at
Cremona ' Modena, and elsewhere. A. scuffle is
reported ho' ave taken place between•the Austrian
and Hungarian soldiers at Cremona. Farther
*tails of the debate in the Spanish Chamber, on
President Buchanan's Message, show that O'Don
nell expressed great surprise at the.proposition in
regard to Cabe, and declared that the Government
was disposed to deniand satisfaction for such an
insult. He declaied emphatically that Spain
would never sell any of her territory. Austria,
bad abandoned the project of concentrating an
imposing force on the Servian frontier. Great
depression prevailed at Vienna. The object of
the conspiracy it Cracow was to femme! , the in
dependence of, the Republic. It was rumored,
but not credited, that Russia had incceeded in
negotiating a loan of several millions sterling
with the Rothschild&
arria.

Mary Eleanor had embraced the hope of the

fruition of eternal life, while it pours balm into
the bleeding breasts of the wide circle who mourn

Mr. Feltwell was born near London; in the
year 1774. He came to this country, in his 25th
year, and settled in Clearfield County. There, in
1806, he was united in marriage withldiss Esther
Cree, who still survives to mourn =his loss.' In
.1824, , he united with the Protestint EpiscoPa ,
Church, in Pittsburgh. Afterwards he•removed
to Canada West, where - he lived nearly t** years..
Returning to Clearfield County in 1885, he there
connected himself with the Presbyterian church
of Fruit MI. About seven years ago, he
,came
into the bounds of Glade Run congregation, of
which he was a consistent .member when he was
dismissed by death, to join, as ws believe, the
Church triumphant. All who knew him, highly
esteemed His conversation was nearly
always on the things that pertain to everla6ting
peace. Without sickness or:pain, he fell asleep
in the arms of Jesus. > When asked by wfriteid
if he wished a 'physician to be sent for, he re
plied, Jesus was his physician—he needed , no
other. He, answered the :inquiry,. whether he,
would' rather live than die by aiding he hid
nothing now to live for, but everything for whiCh
to die. “Blessed •are the dead which'die in the

DIED—In Washington, Pa., on Tuesday morn
ing, the 28th ult.; 'Gioia% . WALLAVEGIynn,
Esq., in the Nth year of lifir age.
The deceased was a son of the late Thomas
111 1 Giffin, Esq., an eminent member of- the Wash
ington County bar. After his graduation, at
Washington College, l in T 841., at the laxly age of
nineteen. he prosecuted, for sometime; the study
of medicine, under tie instruction of James
Stevens, M.D., of Washington, "but was led to
abandon the pursuit of this profession; on ac
count of the want of sufficient - physiSal etrength
for its toils. He then turned , his attention, to the
law, and after a three Years' course, of study, ; in.
the office of. the late Hon. T. M. T. Mallennan,
he' was admitted to the bar in 1.846. In the
midst, .however, of his preparations, shortly
after, to open an office; he was taken,with violent
spasms, resulting, it is believed, from a spinal.
curvature, which had been,produced by too severe
athletic exercise. hi boyhood:- ,These _spasms, at'
first, immutediately threatened his life ; whilst
recurring at intervals, ever afterwards, they un
fitted him for active business; and finally; return
ing with unwonted violence r t cdttek the mastery
in hh3 death;' ' • ~
, .
The , dedisased was naturally ' pessimied -of' a
vigorous and sprightly Mind, to which he'added
the treasures of extended and various reading.'
He was also lively in disposition' and quick in
wit, with a keen sense of the beantifnl, as'shown
by his fondness for poetical Compositien. But
his religious character, during the nine years of
his membership in the Presbyterian Ohara, was
the most strongly marked. In the days or his
carelessness, his high-toned decision led_ him
manfully to' repTsfilliTonieTiif those - whosought
to press upon hie attention a subject, to which,
his heart bade no welcome, yet, when thisitiong
attribtite of his mind'Was sanctified by regeneri-,
ting grace, it made him a most consistent,
earnest, and ,heroic witness for Christ. His
heart, hands, tongue, pen, and purse, were all/
henceforth, employed, Under ,the power a
supreme consecration to the 'single object, of
glorifying the Redeemer in the salvation of his
fellownien. Not a few of , his fellow Christians
will:remember long, how-:ther found ,themselves,
in his hands, prompted to :duty* or :restraineit
from inconsistency, by a pointed admonition, the
offer of a suitable tract, or an apt' quotation from
Scripture ; and not a few of the impenitent, could: ,
testify. that - they have felt his cords to he ae
arrows from the quiver of the °Holy Spirit: His
counsels and prayers, in the chaniber of sickness,
were,often sought_ for, like :those of a minister:
His`preience in' house of God, in the Sabbath
School, and in the - social meeting, could be eel=
Cialated on with the certainty of the time, siibject
only to the state of his•'health. Especially will
he be missed in the young men's prayer-,meeting
Of the church: of which he was a Member, Where
be was regarded as a pillar. A cloud upon hie,
intellect, which was „an incident of hiS disease,
prevented a death-bed testimeny ; but his seat.,
