The Baptist American Publication Society, which

Lave been the most successful since its establish
ment.
The Rev. Dr Macklin, and W. W. Latta, late
of Waynesburg, who went to Florida for the
benefit of their health, have returned. Mr.
Latta is so much improved that he hopes to be
able, in a short time, to resume his pulpit labors;
but Dr. Macklin's health is still greatly impaired.
Dr. Wm. Harris, who accompanied them, has
also returned, somewhat improved, but not yet
well enough to justify him in resuming, at once,
his professional duties.
Board of Foreign "Missions of the Presby
terian Church.
Amur. 30th, 1859.
The review of the Missions of the Board da
ring the past year presents many causes of
thanksgiving. All of the missions described in
former reports are still in operation, and most of
them have enjoyed marked prosperity. Only one
laborer has been removed by death, though some
have had to return home for a season nn account
of health; while a goodly number of new la
borers have been sent out. There have been
some causes of solicitude and some discourage
manta in particular missions, but with one ex
ception, of a temporary nature, there has been no
actual interruption of the work. This has been
steadily fulfilled in nearly all the missionary
fields, by preaching, by conversation, by teach
ing, by the skill of the Christian physician, by
the aid of the printing press, by the examples of
devoted Christian men and women—in love to
'God and man, in eeltdenial, in faith, in sure hope
'of success, as in the days of the Apostles and the
first Christians. And in no former year has there
been more encouraging evifinoe of the presence
and power of the holy Spirit accompanying the
labors of the missionaries. New fields of labor,
'moreover, have been in a wonderful way set be
fore the Church, and some efforts have been made
to commence new missions, in obedience to the
call of Providence.
The statistics which follow are taken from the
rwnwrr- MOND ANNUAL ItAPON.T.
Missrons.—These are found among nine of the
,Indian Tribes; in South America, at two important
cities in different countries; in Western Africa,
at several places in Liberia, and near the equator;
in North India, at fifteen stations; in Siam; in
China, at three large cities, with a mission to the
Chinese in California; among the Jews; and in
Europe, by means of pecuniary aid furnished to
:Evangelical Societies in France, Belgium, Hol
land, Geneva, and the Waldensian Synod, Con
nected with these missions, but not including the
European, there are
-73 ordained ministers; 27 lay assistants; 101
female assistants •, 52 native assistants ; 1158
communicants, and 2310 scholars.
'The actual numbers of native assistants, church
members, and scholars, are larger than these re
turns—reports not having been received from
some of 'the stations, New converts have been
added to the churches of Spencer, Goodwater,
Wappanuoisa, lowa, Grand Traverse and Little
Traverse, among the Indians ; Monrovia, Ken
tucky, Sinou, and Corisco, in Africa ; Labor,
Jalandar, Lodiana, Ambala, Sabathu, Saharan
pur, Debra, and Futtehgurh, in India ; and
Nangpo, in China.
New Mastons.—Three new missions are
to be formed in South America, in Western Africa,
and in Japan. For Japan, a medical missionary
and his wife have embarked within a fortnight,
and they will be joined by a minister and his wife
,from one of the missions in China. For Brazil,
Which is also a new field of missionary labor, and
for new stations in Africa, four ministers will go
forth in a few weeks.
MIOSIONARTIIS SANT ONT.—The missionaries and
assistant missionaries sent out last year were in
all twenty six—seven of whom were returning to
their -stations with improved health. Of the
whole number, seven were ministers, far laymen,
and fifteen the wives of missionaries, or teachers.
Fneanone,—The receipts from all sources, in•
chiding $18,112.57 special fends for India from
last year's report are $2BO, 030 57. The expendi
tures, $222,29476. Balance $7,786.82, being
unexpended special funds for India.
In view of the severe pecuniary pressure which
has been felt in a large part of the country, the
financial position of the Board is a very gratifying
one. It is free from debt; and the self denying
liberality, which most of the churches making
donations have shown, gives the promise of con
tinned and increased pecuniary support.
Ermanoen EFFOILTS —These are loudly called
for in making the Gospel known to the people
that sit in darkness and the shadow of death.
The settlement of late disturbances in India
placiee the missionary and native Christian on
more advantageous ground than was ever before
within their reach, for the spread of the Gospel
among the dense masses of the people of that
country. The late treaties with China have given
entrance to a country, which is a world in itself.
The empire of Japan no longer closes the door
against foreigners, and the Gospel will soon
gain new triumphs in these beautiful islands.

In still other fields, much land is yet to be pos

represented by this Board is called and encour

This is a bloodless battle, which is being waged
between the Northern and Southern Roads. By
Northern, in this contest, understand the New
York Central, and the New York and Erie Roads;
and by Southert, the Pennsylvania Central, and
the Baltimore add Ohio. The prize is the through
travel, and the Western freight. The moving
spirit in the conflict is, the interest of trade in
the cities at the Eastern termini of the roads.
The sufferers are the stockholders. The gainers
are the people of the Great West.
The four great thoroughfares possess, each in
itself, a capacity for doing greatly more than an
equal share of the present business of the
country. This•business comprises the local, and
the-through. The local is mouse to each ; the
through can, mostly, reach the Western terminus
of either of the roads.
The war policy is for each to sustain itself by
the local business, and to put the through busi
ness down to the lowest point which is endur
able.
The principal contestants are the two Centrals.
These have great capacity, and are supported by
a large amount of local, or way business. The
Baltimore and Ohio has also, in the transportation
of coal, a great source of income.
The following, from the North American, shows
something of the state of the ease
" In the year 1867 the entire tonnage of the
four main railways stood thus :—Pennsylvania,
1,003,275 ; N. Y. Central, 838,791 ; N. Y. and
Erie, 978,069 ; Baltimore and Ohio, 895,400. Of
these amounts the way tonnage was-:-Pennsyl
vania, 831,202 ; N. Y. Central, 642,914 ; N. Y.
and Erie, 737,970; Baltimore and Ohio, 670,829.
Here we perceive that of - the enormous business
of the Pennsylvania Railroad four fifths was way
traffic; of the New York Central, three
fifths ; of the New York and Erie four-fifths ;
and of the Baltimore and Ohio rather less than
four-fifths. The way tonnage of the Pennsyl
vania line was nearly equal each way, being 413,-
866 East, and 417,337 West. The entire through
tonnage of all the lines was 593,463 East, end
334,157 West, or together 907,620. So that if
one line could do the whole of it, the business
would not equal the tonnage of the Pennsylvania
Railway.
" The passenger business of these four lines
exhibits pretty much the same features. For the
year 1857, it numbered 884,024 passenges on the
Pennsylvania, of whom only 37,668 were through
bound; 2,560,272 on the New York Central, of
whom only 164,069 were through bound; 972,871
on the New York and Erie, of whom only
66,790 were through bound; and 365,-
407 on the Baltimore and Ohio, of whom only
37,736 were through bound. Thus the entire
number of through passengers for the year was
only 296,244, a sum not equal to the way-passen
ger business of any one of the lines."
It is understood that the Southern roads will
act in concert, and that the Camden and Amboy,
through New Jersey, adopts a pro rate on through
business, with them.
The Pennsylvania Road finds sympathy also
in the West.
The Cincinnati Commercial, noticing an insinu
ation against this road as being unsafe for travel,
says
" The perfeot order and smoothness of the
track of the Pennsylvania , Central Road is pro
verbial. It is a faot, verified almost every day,
that a glass three-fourths filled with water, will
ride on the window sill of any passenger car
upon the road, from Altoona to Harrisburg, with
out being spilled one time in ten, We have
ourselves seen apples placed in a similar position,
upon a wager, and ride a hundred and fifty miles
on the Pennsylvania Central, without being jarred
off: We call ,attention to the averywhere ad
mitted splendid vondition of t hee Pennsydvania
Central, on account of a foolish misrepresentation
contained in the last sentence of a paragraph
from the New York Herald of Thursday."
The Indianapolis Sentinel, OR the same subject,
remarks
We have been highly amused by some remarks
of the New York Herald, relative to the road-bed
of this splendid line of communication. The
Herald characterizes the track as a " corduroy "
one. The writer of the article must have had a
recent jaunt over the New York and Erie when
he made the remark, and could not have recovered
from the impression of jolting which a trip over
that line is ewe to occasion. From experience,
we can assert that if the Pennsylvania Central is
not the smoothest of the smooth, throughout its
entire length, it is certainly as smooth as the
smoothest.l 4 ine in the country.
This commendation, for safety and comfort, is
wall merited.

Perhaps indiscriminate panegyric or the dead is too com

her, when we say that she was most exemplary in all the
relations and duties of life. It le seldom the case that a
person so young, without having made a public profession
of her attachment to the Saviour, which abs was moat anx
ious to do, had God spared her to the coming communion,
leaven behind such strong evidence of entire fitness for the
change. She bore the trials and agony or dying, with the
patience and fortitude of an experienced Christian; and
ohl how precious the Saviour appeared to her,' and his
promises were her supporting staff. Coonskins that her
"sickness was unto death," she could say, "whatever
others think, I know I cannot recover,7 and spoke of death
and the grave with perfect calmness, feeling that the for
mer was robbed of his sting, the latter of his victory. As a
daughter and sister, she was most affectionate and un
selfish, as the deep sorrow of bereaved parents, brothers,
and sisters, amply testify, and a large concourse of sympa
thising neighbors, following bar down to 'the tomb, abun
dantly prove. While relatives mourn, let them net " sorrow
as those who have no hope," for we have an abiding
assurance not only from the testimony of a dying bed, but
also a consistent Christian walk and conversation, that our
loss is her gain, and that her soul, disenthralled from this
tenement of clay, has winged its way to *lag before the
throne the song of redeeming love.
"From adverse blasts, and lowering storms,
Ear favored soul he bore;
And with you bright, angelic forms,
She lives to die nb more."
