in it, and be propelled under water, remaining
there several hours without any communication

A Valuable Family Medicine,
So celebrated has Dr. M'Lane's Vermifuge,
prepared by Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, Pa.,
become, that it is regarded as the only specific
cure for worms. Families should never be with•
out a supply of it. At this season particularly,
when worms are so troublesode and frequently
fatal among children, parents should be watchful:
and on the first appearance of those distressing
symptoms which warn us , of their presence, at
once apply this powerful and efficacious remedy.
We are confident that it only requires a - trial, to
convince all that it richly merits the praises that
have been lavished upon it. It is safe and infal
lible. Volumes of certificates can be produced,
showing its great medical virtues.
Purchasers will be careful to ask for DR. W.
LANE'S CELEBRATED LIVER PILLS, mann
actured by FLEMING BROS. of PITTBDURGH,
PA. There • are other Pills purporting to be Liver
Pills, now before the public. Dr. M'Lane's gen

The war question presents its usual variations,
with a rather stronger tend:nay to peace] The
Emperor Napoleon had written a very pacific let
ter to Sir Francis Head, of England, which is
published. It takes strong grounds, for an ab

for the suspicions promulgated against him, and
the favor shown toward Austria. '
Lord Cowley, the English Minister to Austria
for peeve, left Vienna on , the 10th for London,
bearing, as repbrted, a very satisfactory proposi
lion from Austria. • The 'terms are, of course,
still secret, but a correspondent reports the sue

basis of the arrangement which is understood as
likely to be favorably received by all the powers,
had been'deolded upon.

The House of Commons has rejected the Gov

Lord John. Russell has given notice of an
amendment to the reform bill, to the effect that no
adjustment of the eleotive franchise will satisfy
the House or the country, which does not provide
a greater extension of suffrage in cities and
boroughs than is provided for in the bill presented
by Mr. Disraeli.

The Nord distinctly asserts that the Emperor
Napoleon consented to the insertion of the pacific
article in the Afoniieur, to show his moderation
but that the present diftcuities are not diplomat'

This excellent woman was eminent in all those

The deceased was a consistent member, of

about thirty-nine years. The words-of the
Psalmist, " Many are the afflictions of the right
eous," were verified in her experience, in conse
quence of repeated bereavements in the family,
'having lost .by death eight of her children, six
daughters and two sons, and nearly all of them
after they had arrived at mature age. Her chas
tisements, however, she bore. with Christian
resignation, and the peaceable fruits of righteous
ness appeared. And 'thus, at length, the pro
aess,of training for glory being completed, the
pleasing hope can be entertained that at a good old
age she passed away to the rest that remaineth
for the people of God. ' G.M.

Christian profession, by a consistent walk and
conversation, for almost a half century. She
was a wife, a mother, and a Christian. In*hat
ever sphere she wag called to act, she carried her
religion with her. As she drew near to the end

Dtim—At Agnew's Mills, Clarion Co., Pa.,
January Ist, 1859, of pulmonary consumption,
JORN F., third son of J. Findley and Susan M.
Agnew, In the 24th year of his age.
The subject of this notice was a young man of
sterling worth, uncommon amiability of disposi
tion, inflexible flrmnese in prosecuting what he
conceived to be the -line of duty, and, withal, a
riling man of no ordinary intellectual powers,
sanctified by grace. Divine, and offered on the altar
of consecration, unreservedly, to his God and
Saviour. When a boy, he went to Franklin to
learn the printing business, and, while there, he
conducted himself in such a way as to secure the
love and esteem of all who knew him. From
Franklin he removed to Pittsburgh, and was as
sociated with the firm of Davison & Agnew,
booksellers, Market Street. It was 'there the
writer first became acquainted with him. The
students of the Seminary loved John, he was so
kind and obliging. He was never impatient in
waiting upon his customers, and the smile he in
cessantly wore upon his face, which was natural
to him, and betokened the sweetness of hie dis
position, attracted 'them to him, and, thereby,
added to his labors, which he performed with the
greatest assiduity, fidelity, and Christian feeling.
It was while engaged in the bookstore that he was
led to make a public profession of faith in Christ
Jesus, and though his mind had, for some years
previous, been deeply exercised on the subject of
religion, yet, it' was during his employment with
Davison & Agnew, that the new birth ,manifested
itself by his publicly avouching Jesus to be his
Saviour. When, or in what place 'the seed was
sown which, by the blessing of Christ,. and the
quickening energy of the Holy Spirit, developed
itself in the new creation, the writer is not aware;
but it was in Franklin that his thoughts were,
for the first time, seriously and solemnly turned
to the subject of religion. It was there " the
commandment came to him, sin. revived and he
died;" and while laboring under deep, pungent.
conviction of sin, and haunted continually with
the thoughts of his lost and ruined condition, in
the providence of God he was brought to Pitts
burgh, where, under the soul-stirring sermons of
Rev. W. M. Paxton, he was led to realize more
clearly than before, the position he pecupied un
der the government of Gocl,and more fully to appre
hend the remedy for hie sin.sick soul. Thus en
lightened and encouraged, he resolved to cast in
his lot with the people of God. Accordingly, he
appeared before the Session of the First Presby
terian church, Pittsburgh, was examined, gave
satisfying evidence of a change of heart, and was
received into fall communion. This was in the
year 1852, or 1853 ; and from that day till the,
time of his decease, his deportment was that of a
Christian, on whose soul had been stamped the
signet of heaven's King, acting and speaking as
became. the. en t tertainer of a heavenly guest, and
as hearing about in his body the Spirit of the
living God. After uniting with the church, he
determined, God willing, to prepare for the min
istry. With that object in view he entered West
minster College, but hie health failing, he returned
to bis father's, where, after lingering for some
time, he died in the full hope , of a glorious immor
tality. On preaching the Gospel he bad set his
heart, but great as is the honors and privilege of
preaching Christ and him crucified, a higher
honor and privilege awaited him in the
sanctuary above, which he was called so early
to realize';' and, now, far above the dark vortex
of terrestrial strifes, be lives amid the light, and
breathes the love. of eternity in the presence Of
hie Redeemer God. " Say ye to the righteous•
that it shall be well with them ; for they shall
eat the fruit of their doings."

gelical In feeling; embodying massy thought . exprewid In
clear, chaete, forcible style. they may be freely endorsed as
able Spepiruelaß of the American pulpit
The,"American Theological Review" says :—They are
admirable specimens of elevating and "agate discourses.
The more doctrinal themes ate handled in a practical way
—they most practical subjects afe`full of 'doctrinal rigor-
They are adapted not only to teed the Church of God, but to
a.-rest; the attention of those who are still strangers to
the covenant.of promise.
The "Presbitetian Quarterly " says :—Dr. Alexander is
an excellent sermeniser—his characteristic is a mingling of
sweetness and spirituality there is much delicacy of con
ception and gentleman-like elegance, while, at the same
time, all is attilleiently plain and clear,
The "Southern Presbyterian Review" says:-In Dr.
Alexander's Sermons there are beauties of style, tereenets,
-and directness of expression, appropriate imagery, and
depth of feeling, which make them attractive.
The "New Englander" says :=l"he Sermons are all
earnest, plain, dignified presentations of Gospel truths,
and 'are
, written with unusual .good taste and literary
ability. ,
The ".Worth American Review" says :—They are even
'gelieal in tone, simple and chaste in style, uncompro
misingly severe in the , dethinciation of falsity and wrong,

A familiar acqnaintance with the sources of historical
knowledge, a mature Judgment, a sound. nervous logic, and
a lively imagination, pervaded by the energy and warmth.
'of a living faith, Ind a glowing heart, are all brought to
bear upon this work.—Nercersburg Review.
Dr. Schaff possesses a true Teutonic erudition, which he
expresses In the beet Anglo-Saxon clearness, and with a
Heßic vivacity and effect.—Methodist Quarterly Review,
This volume seems to no to have all the merits of the
arthor's previous publicatiorgi, which are too wvil known to
need description here, and which have pieced him i n th e
first rank of contemporary writers on Church History, not
only in' this. country, but in Germany and England.—
Princeton Review.
This new volume of Church History. is a very handsome,
well printed book of ISS pages, furnished with that ladle•
verifiable appendage, a good index. Dr. Schaff has written
a perspicuous, animated, often eloquent, and always trust
worthy narrative. This is high praise weena we look at the
deficiencies of the best of the current works in this'clepart
ment.—New Englander.
The "North American Review" says :—With this book
we are giestly pleased. At the commencement of each sec
its), a list of authorities for its contents are given, and
from the sources thus indicated, the author furnishes afros
sect gracefnl narrative of what is properly embraced under
each title. • • • The work is equally well adapted to
the needi of the student, and the edification of the general
reader.
REV. DR. H. BUSHNELVS
Nature and the Supernatural..
1 vol. Bvo. $2.00. 30 edition.
The "North American Review" save:—The author has
rendered-a most important service to Christian Faith, both
as regards the external facts of our religion, and the more
recnndlte experience of its true disciples. We accept his
theory, in its essential featnres, and rejoice in the ability
and lucidness with which it Is here developed.
The "Princeton Review" says:—it Is quite the most able
and valuable of Dr. Innshnelre works on Theology. It of
esmrte hears the Imprint of the author's gbnius, In its fresh
and brilliant diction, its affluent originality and bewitch
ing felicity of Illustration, its episodic passages of marvel
ous beauty and eloquence.
The "New Englander'' rays :—To many who oath little
fcr the nkme, have sighed flr the reality of an established
faith, it will trove a beuieon for which their hearts will
ever bless the writer. * * The delineation of the
chs-acter of Jesus is, in our view the finest upon, its theme
in English Literature. We do not hesitate to pronounce it
a magnificent book, a truly Christian book, and one pre
eminently adapted to the times in which we live.
The "American Theological Review" says:—We are pre
pared to say that we have never followed ao close and so
forcible an argument, that was at the same time so read
able. It is one of the freshest book; of the season, or of
r.ny season•
The "Mercersburg Quarterly" says:—Re welcome the
book with all our heart ' as a nuost.vablable accession to the
TboologicarLiterature of the age. Dr. Bushnell has con
trived to throw into it the full vivacity and freshness of
own nature. It is rich throughout witp thoughts that
breathe, and wordsthat glow and burn. A sort of poetical
diem is made to suffuse the entire progress of its argu
ment, relieving the severity of the discussion, and clothing
it oftentimes with graphic interest and force. The book iv
one which deserves to live, and that may be expected to
toke its place, we think, among the enduring works of the
age."

of God."

The "Bibilothoca Sacra" says :—Ta many respects we ire
pleased with this volume It facade, in a great measure,
the technical language of theologians, and presents in cleat
and Biblical style, aarlotiadectrines of our common faith.
The "Southern Presbyterian Review" saye:—We feel
sure that this book will, with the blessing of God; render
very great service to the Church, by ministering to the edl.
Station of her members, both old and young. w 0 strongly
recommend Dr. Armstrong's book to our brethren in the
ministry.
. • .
The °Universalist Quarterly" gayer—Tho book, ao
whole. le.of unusual merit: it is admirably arranged,
tersely written, end well calculated to euggast profitable
matter for thought.
' The " American Theologicid Review". says :—The nhole
aim of the work is eminently . practical, and its spirit is
'reverential and devout. The coniepticin of the batik is a
good'one. and the elsontiOn ia such i n to commend it to all
who hold the common faith of the - Charch•of God.

The "Methodist Review says :—The. plan of the work.
is developed by the author a Rh genialfeeding, great clear
ness, and no little interott of style. It is well calculated to
edify the Church, and to make Christians of Infidels.
