    for the Preebyterian Banger and iiidencate,
Church Extension.
ST. Louts January Bth,
The wants of many feeble congregations en;
gaged in church building, constrain the General
Assembly's Church Extension t3otnntittee to call
attention'to the following facts ; ••
1. Thus far, this year, the applications have
increased, and the contributions decreased, more
than one third, BS compared with the same time
last year. During the nine months ending De.
oember 31st, 1.86.9, eighty•one churches furnished
all the information we require before making en
appropriation, and Relied aid to the eimount of
*42,767.88, or $l2 570 78 more than was simi
larly applied for during the corresponding period
of the previous year, The receipts for the same
time amount to $11,501.32, or $5:715 74 less
than during the first nine months of 1868. While
this decrease is chiefly owing to a change in the
time of lifting our annual.oolleotion In a church
whipb last year gave more than that sum, it
causes much present embarrasement, and oompele
us to ask help elsewhere.
2. As the result of the increased demands and
diminished receipts, our liabilities to day exceed
our means $10,270.51. Most of these liabilities
are so dietrlbuted over the future as to be met
by the ordinary receipts, but they will nearly
absorb oar probable income for several months.
Without, therefore, a large increase of contribu
tions, we cannot meet the reasonable wants of
the nineti-three churches whose applications are
now on die, but who have not yet furnished the
full Information necessary to our final action.
8. Our liabilities have not been incurred in
aiding expensive enterprises, or without urgent
necessity. The average cost of the churches we
have this year assisted is $2,082.87. The
average amount we have appropriated to each
.ohurob is but $268 05, payable only after the
receipt of eatiefactory evidence that it will com
plete the house free from debt. Moat of our
appropriations have been made to save sanctuar
ies from being sold by the sheriff, and worthy
churches fromteing crippled or dissolved. An
unusual amount of aid has also been required to
prevedt the removal of useful ministers from
gelds whitening to the harvest. The impover
ished condition of many such forbade their
.remaining unless a sanctuary with its attendant
increase of support could be obtained.
4. We have experienced no relief from the
diminished costs of building in some parts of
the country. In those places the ability of the
people has been still more diminished,. so that
the average amount of aid asked from us is one
fourth greater than ever before.
We lay these facts before those whom God has
blessed with comfortable Impetus. les, with the
*sprout request that they would honor the golden
rule by helping their needy brethren to secure a
house of worship. All who have a heart to aid,
are invited to send their efts to Archibald Gam
ble, Treasurer, No. 88 Market Street,' Bt. Louis,
Mo., or to any of our Receiving Agents named
in the Home and Foreign Beard.
By order of the Church Extension Committee.

During the last fourteen years sornefour hundred Detente

drudgery of family sewing, and et the Same time to pro.
duce a machine that could be profitably used for manufac
turing purposes; bat, strange to say. out of title large
"umber of Sewing Machines only oree halt dozen have
been proven to be of practical value; and of thin small
number not one has in it combined ,the advantages of a
family and manufacturing maehine There are larre,
heavy, noisy, cumbrous. and complicated machines, de.
signed for heavy work, that Roemer the purpose very well;
while there are others of light mochaulem and delicate

and while the fenner ere exclusively confined to heavy

light febrice
Therefore I take great pleasure in stating the important
fact that Mr. HOWE, the original inventor of sewing
Machines, has recently perfected his Shuttle Machine so as
to combine, in a much smaller space and with far less
machinery, the strength eta durability of the manefac
terina machine., and at the same time pesseseing that
delicacy of movement and ease of operation peculiar to the
family meadow., and which renders this the only machine
In market capable of working EQUALLY . WELL TOE
