Abstract of the Fourth Annual Report of
the Church Extension Committee.
During the entire period (revered by this
report, the Committee labored under .great
embarrassments arising from the heavy lia
bilitiea with which they began the year, and
the unprecedented influx of application!.
In 1857-8 only one hundred applications,
calling for $45,000, were received ; while in
1858-0 there were one' hundred and forty
one, calling for about $62,000 These one
hundred and forty-one applications were
from churches in the bounds of thirty-one
Synods, eighty-two Presbyteries, and twenty
nine States and Territories. During the
year the applications of thirty two churches,
amounting to $13,370, were stricken from
the file, because the applicants had failed
within two years to furnish the Committee
with the necessary information. There re
mained on file April Ist, 1859, awaiting the
receipt of additional facts, ninety one appli
nations, calling for at least $41,000. In
eluding, sixty applications brought forward
from the previous year, two hundred and
one applications, calling for $87,000, were
before the Church Extension Committee,
during the twelve months ending April let,
1859. Only five applications were declined
during the year. •
Notwithstanding these embarrassments,
(-od prospered the work of church building,
through the Committee, during their fourth
fiscal year. Every appropriation was paid
as anon as it became due without borrowing
a dollar. Appropriations amounting to $20,-
504 90 were thus paid to seventy s'x
churches or eleven more than during the
preceding year Appropriations amounting
to $23 970 15 were made to eighty three
churches, or seven more than the year be
fore These eighty-three churches were in
the bounds of thirty Synods. sixty Presby
teries, and twenty five States and Territories
Apart from special donations, the -average
appropriation to each church was $239 90.
The receipts were $29 342 34, or about
$4 600 more than during the previous year.
The expenditures were $23 538 68 The
liabilities incurred but not yet fully matured,
exceeded the means on hand April 1, 1859,
$1.234 41.
The average cost of' the two hued . * and
fifty five different church edifices to which
'the Commit* have voted aid on their own
responsibility since July, 1855, is $2 097
each. The average number of members in
the different churches aided, is thirty four
to each.
The Committee have continued to distrib
ute the fuuds entrusted to them, as equita
bly as possible, over the whole Church. In
addition to the foot that the eighty-three
appropriations of the fourth fiscal year were
scattered over thirty Svnods,'lsix.ty Preaby
wife, and twenty five
,States and territories,
another fact ought to be mentioned, viz :
that since July, 1855, the Committee havei
declined to make au appropriation to only
tive w of the two hundred .od eighty different
churches that have furnished the me scary.

sums eutitely beyond the ability of the Coin,

(if you have one) did you obta'n aid out
bide of your own community? If you are
without a suitable church edifice, can you
seeure one without aid from the Church at
large ? The replies we have received, sod
the information we' have derived from other
reliable sources, enable U 8 to report the c-m
-dition of two thousand two hundred and
sixty seven churches, or of about two thirds
of the whole number of churches now in
connexion with the General Assembly. Of
these two thousand two hundred 'and sixty
seven churches, five hundred and fitty three,
or neatly one in four, have no house of woe
ship. Twenty six churches worship in
Union houses; one hundred and sixty eight
report their houses of worship as insuffictent
for their present wants; one huidred and
ninety are in debt; seven hundred and
seventy seven had aid from ab-oad inbuild
ing their church edifices; and three hun•
dred and seventy three cannot built without
aid from the Church at large. We have
the Dames of all these different churches on
file in our office.
These simple but startling facts show,
more clearly than anything else, the magni
tude of the Church Extension work, and
we commend them to the earnest attention
of the-Assembly and the Church.

'Limits of Religious Thought.
By REY K LIEGURVILIOR !HANSEL, B. 11. Reader in
Moral and Metaphysical Philosophy at Magdalen
College, Oxford.
12m0., cloth. $l.OO.
This volume is destined to create a profounder secession
in thie country than any philosophical or religious work of
this century. It is *defence of revealed religinn equal i n
abilitv to the " Analngy " of Bishop Butler, and meets the
tkepticiam of Our age , ae effeetually as that great work i
an earlier day. The Pantheism and Parkerism
into our popular literattire'aill here find an antidote. the
Lectures excited the, highest entitueissin at Oxford, and th
volume has already reached a third edition in England .
The' cooinue ''`Notes" of the author have been trattelate4
for the AMeriean 'mitten by an accomplished scholar, which
adds greatly to its value.

Geoloeiat's Portfolio By Hugh Miller. With a Be
nee of the Progress of neologies' Science dur
ing th. last two years. By Mrs. Miller.
12m0., cloth. $1.25.
The work is-likely to prove the most popular of Hugh
Miller's writings, and to attain the widest circulation. I t
is written in film best style, and makes the mysteries n r
geology intelligible to the common mind. As an architect
explains the structure of a honed from cellar to attic, 'w.
this accomplished geologist takes the globes to pieces, and
explains the manner in which all its strata, have been
formed. from the granite foundation to the alluvial Furnace.
It supplies just the information Which many readers have
been longing for, 6nt anabi. to find.

This noble volume, so long and eagerly expected, intro
duces Sir William Hamilton to the American People- He
has ranked for yeare among scholars as the acutest an
mud profound writer on ltletaphysito in the gngllsli
tongue. .11ot common readers base been otten repelled by
the very etilitlety of his thought and the exactness of hie
style. 'This voliime, like the best efforts of Webster, com
bines the. profoundest thinking with clear and popular
statement. It is, without eoubt, the best work of its kind
ever published in this country, and while it gratifies the
New. .fingland taste fur nodsphysfral discussions, will put
et rest certain great questions in theology and philosophy
which' have long beau mooted. It overturns from tbo
fpundatione the edence of Phrenolagy as taught by Spurr,
