EASTERN SUMMARY.
Boston and NeW England.
The Boston Troot Soddy has at length formally
separated from the American Tract Society, at
New York, The resolution to this effect passed
without debate. Many were opposed to such
Ration; but to say anything against the movement
would save been in vain, as De advocates were
able and determined to carry the mown at all
hazards. Nor was the separation effected in any
very kindly spirit. For the following resolution,
'proposed by Dr. Copp, was indefinitely postponed,
after quite a number declaring publicly that it
did not contain a true expression of the feelings
entertained by this Society toward the one at
New York:
Resolved, That in dissolving a connexion witV
the American Tract Society at New York, which
for thirty-four years has been signally beneficial
to both Societies, and a measure of extended
usefulness to the 134080 of Christ in the world,
we desire to proceed with tenderness and Chris
tian courtesy, and to separate from our brethren
In the exercise of charity and forbearance in
respect to the difference of opinion which divides
our counsels, and with no other feelings toward
them than love and a sincere desire that the wis
dom which is from above may guide all their
future operations. And now, having receded
from the connexion which has existed for so
many years of useful co•operation to our original
state, we shall continue to entertain feelings of
Christian regard toward the American Tract
Society at New York, and hope so to conduct our
operations that all just causes of strife between
us may be avoided, and as far as possible to sus
tain in harmony and peace with them as brethren
and Christians, having in the main the same
great otiects in 'view.
The Hon. George N. Briggs was elected Presi
dent, and a large number of Vice Presidents%
and Directors were appointed, together with an
Executive Committee, Secretaries, Treasurers,
and Auditors.
The Annual Meeting of the Congregationai Li•
&my Anociationa was held on Tuesd.ty of last
week. According to the Report, there are now
2,300 members, beiog an increase of 680 for the
last year. During the same time, 876 bound
volumes, 1,280 pamphlets, 125 manusoripts, atm
19 periodicals have been added to the library.
The total number of volumes is 5,627, of pamph..
lets 16/880, of manuscripts 471, of periodicals
88, all In good preservation, and obtained without
the cost of a dollar to the Society. The annual
address was by the Rev. John Todd, upon the
subject assigned him, viz., "Meeting Houses."
The addreee to said to have been characterized by
sound sense, wit, and many happy hits atmoderrt
innovations and popular usage.

The Statistics of Crime are as important to the
philanthropist and the Christian, as the records
of mortality are to the physician. They afford
food for reflection, reveal the vast amount of
wickedness and misery abroad in the world, and
show the necessity of more enlarged and more
strenuous efforts toward its removal. Viewed in
this light, the quarterly submitted to the Commis
sioners of Police, the other day, is worthy of at
tention. During the last three months, the num
ber of arrests, by the pollee, has been 16,868, an
increase on the previous three months of 2,693.
Of these, 2,102 were married, and 8,256 unmar
ried; 11,147 could read and write, 6,211 could
not; 9,409 were males, and 4,814 were females;
of those thus arrested, 8,216 were born in the
United States; 10,460 in Ireland; 1,280 in Ger
many ; 655 in England ; 231 in Scotland ; 109 in
France ; 74 in Italy ; 64 in Canada ; 24 in Po•
land; scattering, 64; and unknown, 801. It
must be borne in mind, however, that many of
these were drunkards, who were arrested several
times within the period specified, So that the
16,1858 arrests does not represent quite that num
ber of different individucls.
The Baptist 'Convention composed of delegates
from fourteen Northern States, after much die-
oussion, prepared the way for a movement that
will, in the end, bring about a consolidation of
most of the Baptist Societies. And the Examiner
reiterates its former statement that to get a dol
lar into the bands of a missionary or colporteur
through the treasuries of the American. Baptist
Publication Society, the American and Foreign
Bible Society, and the American Baptist Horde
Mission Society, costs fifty cents, and that it is
not uncommon for an agents salary and expenses
to equal sixty or seventy (tents on every dollar
actually collected by him. The day has come
when the expenditures and efficiency of all the
Societies that expect a continuance of the patron
age of the Christian public; must undergo 'close
and careful scrutiny. They are entitled to confi
dence, and td maintain it the highest degree of
efficiency must be combined with the utmost
efforts to prevent any useless outlay.
The Rev. Wm. J. Hoge, lately Professor in
Union Theological Seminary, Ya., was installed
as associate pastor with Rev. Dr. Spring, of the
Brick church, corner of Fifth Avenue and Thirty-
Seventh Street, on the evening of last Sabbath
week. The capacious edifice was filled to its ut
most capacity, both in the pews and the aisles.
The sermon was preached by the venerable pas
tor, Rev. Dr. Spring, from Exodus vi : 12. The
Rev. Frederick G. Clark, Moderator of the Pres
bytery
. of New York, presided, and proposed the
constitutional questions. The Rev. Dr. Krebs
gave the charge to Mr. Hoge, and the' Rev. Dr.
Potts to the people. Dr. Spring has stood longer
at his post than any minister of any denomina
ties in this city or vicinity, and the occasion' of
the installation of an associate was very interest.
ing and very solenin.
The Rev. James McDougall, Jr., recently_ tutor
in Princeton College, was ordained and installed
pastor of the Ainslie Street Presbyterian church,
Williamsburgb, L. 1., on the evening of the 17th
'net. The sermon was preaohed by the Rev. Mr.
Oakey, of Jamaica; the Rev. J: Greenleaf, of
Brooklyn, delivered the charge to the pactor, and
the Rev, J. McDougall, Sr., of Freeport, the
charge to the people. The ordaining prayer was
offered by the Rev. J. A. Wells, the faithful and
snoomful pastor of the First church, Williams•
burgh
The Rec. G. R. McMillan, late of New Castle,
Pa., was installed pastor of the First Reformed
Presbyterian ohnroh, Brooklyn, on the evening of
Sabbath, May 16th, by a Committee . ..of the
Northern Presbytery. Mr. McMillan
, enters
upon his new field of labor with eneouniging -pros
pects of success, and the prayers of former par
ishioners and brethren in the ministry, of different
denominations In the West, will follow him.

delphia has no equal in the world, In the manu
facture of miscellaneous articles. From time to

statistics in support of this opinion which was first

The Seventy-Fifth Protestant E,piscopal Convene
Lion of the diocese of Pennsylvania, met on
Tuesday, the 26th . ult., at St. Andrew's church.
The sermon was preached on the following morn
ing by the Hey. Dr. Wolfe Howe, of St. Luke's
church, from Amos Ili 2. The sermon 'mug
able, earnest, and magnificently eulogistic of the
Episcopal Church. Rev. Wm. Henry Odenheimer,
of St. Petiesehurch, in this city, was eleoted Bishop
of New. Jersey, on Pridny of last week. This
election was the result of a compromise between
the 'friends of Dr. Mahan, and Mr. Littlejohn.
The former was the favorite of the clergy, and
the latter of the laity. Dr. Mahan is a Professor
in the General Theological Seminary at New
York, and belongs to the exclusively High Church
party of which the late Bishop Doane was the
great exponent in this country. Dr. Oden
heimer belongs to the High Church party, but
not in the pretentious and offensive sense so often
seen His Churobism is consistent; and if he
never fraternizes with other Christians to the ex
tent that some other Episcopalians do, he never
goes out of his way to attack them, as some of
his Church do when occasion serves, although
when it suits their purposes they are profuse
in expressions of regard for other denominations.
We are heartily tired of the cry against sectarian
ism, by those who in the end prove to be the
most sectarian of all.

An expository treatise of this kind, from the pen of a

But the claims of this book by no means rest on its novelty
alone. It is really an excellent treatise, and all the more
attractive because it is sui generis.. We. confess to a much

This work is by a distinguished pulpit orator of France—
long habituated to address some of the most polhmed audi
tories of the French Capital. It is the fruit of hie audios
and experience, and deals with the subject con amore.
Many who are in the habit of delivering public addresses,
will read a faithtnl portraiture of their ow n embarrassments,
and will also discover many valuable solutions orthe pecu
liar difficulties which beset them in their trying vocation.
"This work has no counterpart or rival in the English
language; other works teach how to write ; this contains
suggestions on the art of, speaking—easily, agreeably,
forcibly, &c."—Christian Obsetiter. •
"The value of such a book as this eannot be computed—
it is a wonder that there are not more like it."—Bosfon

'-The whole is written with great clearness, and with a
skill' possessed only by one thoroughly conversant with
the subject. To all speakers this book will be invaluable."

illustrations. Price, SL2S.
"In the hands of Mr. Headley, the Christian and
the soldier stand together as . a unit—a glorious whole,
in which are combined the pious virtues of the gentle
disciple with the heroic firmness'of a Joshua. *
The friends of Mr. Havelock have placed Mr. Headley in
possession • of the necessary information to make this
memoir accurate as well as elegant. Thus favored, he has
brought to his task at once a familiarity with his subject,
and that lively and powerful descriptive style of which he
is the master, and which has oftentimes charmed the read
ing public."—Buffalo Commercial. •
" It is well that the author of" Napoleon and his Mar
ghats" should he the first to write an extended biography
of Gen. Havelock; his mind can nobly conceive such a
character, and his fervid, picturesque style can fittingly
represent it."—New York .Express.
" He has given the leading points in Haveloak's military
career with much narrative power, and pictured his rare,
Christian virtues in a style that will commend the volume
to many persons who would not read accounts of scenes of
war and corneae with any relish whatever."—Etaton

Limits of Religious Thought.
By BEV H. LONGIJEVILLP, 'HANSEL, B. D, Read" in
Moral and Metaphysical Philosophy at Magdalen
College, Oxford.
12m0., cloth. $l.OO.
This volume is destined to create a profounder sensation
in this country than any philosophical or religions work of
this century. It is a defence of revealed religion. equal in
ability to the " Analogy " of Bishop Butler, and meets the
skepticism of our age as effectually as that great. work in
an earlier day. The Pantheism and Parkerism infused
into our pointer literature will here find an antidote. S he
Lectures excited the highest enthusiasm at Oxford, mad the
volume bas already reached a third edition in England.
The copious " Notes" of the author have been translated
,for the American edition by an accomplished scholar, which
adds greatly to its value.
Hugh Miller's New Volume.
POPULAR GEOLOGY. With Descriptive Sketches from a
Geologist's Portfolio. -By Hugh Miller. With a Re
sume of the Progress of Geological Science dur
ing the last two years. By Mrs. Miller.
12m0., cloth. $1.215.
The work is likely to prove the most popular of Hugh
Miller's writings, and to attain the widest circulation. It
is written in his best style, and makes the mysteries of
geology intelligible to the common mind. As an architect
explains the structure of a bowie from cellar to attic, so
this accomplished geologist takes the globes to pieces, and
explains the manner in which all its strata, have been.
formed, from the grsnite foundation to the alluvial serface.
It supplies just the information which many readers hare
been longing fur, tint unable to find.

H, h, Mwneel, 13 D., Oxford, and John
Veiteb, M. A, Edinburgh.
Royal octavo, cloth. $2.00.
This noble volume, so long and eagerly expected, Intro
duces Sir William Hamilton to the American People. He
has ranked for years among scholars as the acutset and
moat profound.. writer on Metaphysics in the English
tongue. But common readers have been often repelled by
the very subtlety of his thought and the exactness of his
style. This volume, like the beet efforts of Webster, com
bines the profoundest thinking with clear and popular
statement.. It is, withhnt eoubt, the beat work of its kind
ever published In this country, and while it gratifies the
New England taste for metaphyeical discussions, will put
at rest certain great questions In theology and philosophy
.which hove long been mooted. It overturns from the
foundations the science of Phrenology as taught by Spurs
helm and Oombe.
