DRAM OF A MISSIONARY. A letter from ,China, in' the New-York Evening Post, informs 'us of the death of the Rev. REUBEN LownrE, of the Presby ierian'toard of Foreign Missions, and son cif, the Hon. WALTER LOWRIE, Sr:, Secre tary of that Board. This is the second of his sons who has died in connexion with our Board in China. The first was killed by pirates, While' passing from one port to another, several years am The one just dead, like bis brother, was a man of. fine education, fervent piety, and unusual- en ergy-of charaCter. The venerable Secre tary and - his family will have the sympa thies'and prayers of the whole Church. Who 4a prepared to take the place now made vacant? METHODISM. ME The growth of Methodism- has.been.won- Riedel. And it still grows—grows, so far as-hUmin agency is concerned, by the sim ple powers of instruction and persuasion. Well may its aged ministers cling to an agency which has •been so effective. An official return, submitted to the Gen eral Conference, lately in session at Buffalo, gives the following interesting statistics of Methodiim in the world: Total'iumber, - - 'Add. traveling preachers, croft" oommuniegatqin Arnerica, _.1,996 - „845 " - rc " Europe, 736,300 '44, • - '2;732,195 Minot:hi:Alias:, whose statistics can . 1104 h - exactly ascertained-10 r'. l ooo`ni s einbem, and preachers, Grand total, - - 2,742,395 euPPosing three riembsrs of the congre gation to one of the Church, (a very mod erate estimate for Methodist congre g ations,) we ,have an aggregate population depending on the ministration of Methodism! of hardly less than eleven millions. THE!PIIESBYTERLIN This excellent Monthly is now in the middle of itttenth volume. It has main tained 9;110 standing 'for orthodoxy, and has : been sealons,tble, and unflinching in defence of the truth. It was established by Dr. Vtrt..B.ENssE,LAER, and has been guided by his. intellect. We regret the ar rival of the time when it must be trans ferred; to others. But there is, no contend ing,successfully against providence. Sick ness has laid, its heavy and immovable hand upon•the venerated editor and proprietor. His pen is to move no more, in all' proba bility, 044 his mind : can do t .but little at guiding, and that for but a short time, any enterprise on earth. Another column will show thi the Mag azine is to be disposed 'of; and we are as sured that; to suitable persdns, the terms will bo,most favorable. Who is willing to embark in the enterprise ? Our Church should sustain) a good monthly, and this journal his now a standing which Makes it highly desirable to any who would enter into a wide field of usefulness.

Our five Boards are the:Agendiiii of our Church, by which she coginuonslY carries on her work, as an organization. By her Domestic Board she sustains her own feeble parts, fills up interstices in the planting of ne w eongregatiOns, and enlarges her . boun daries, as the settlement of the country ad vances. By her Board of Church• Building, she aids the needy in the erection of houses of wership, that r the poorest of her family may have a comfortable,centre of resort, where to, :assemble, for worship. By our Educational arrangements, she takes her poor and pious youth, whom God has gifted with talents and endued with his Spirit, and trains them for her ministry at home and abroad. By her Publication system, she puts her views of truth in all its varied as pects, into convenient roans for preserva tion, 'distribution and influence, and spreads it all abroad. And by her Foreign Board, she sends her heralds to publish the glad tidings, teach the heathen, and establish, the Redeemer's kingdom, to the uttermost parts of the earth. In General Assembly she can meet but seldom butin her Boards she can eoncentrate all •her power, and by them she can exist continually in an organ-; ized form, and Put forth her strongener gies in the accomplishing of her mission on earth.' These Boards, her own agencies, by which she makes effective her benevolence and performs her work, she justly requires, not onlyvto receive her instructions, but also to make reports to her, annually, ,of their doings; and the reports she causes to be published for the information and encour _ agement of all membois. These, then, shouTdrie extensively read and examined ; 'and to this end her periodical press has an important dtitY to perform.. A Synopsis of the Report of the Foreign Board for 1860, we gave to our readers some" time ago. And monthly we direct their attention to portions of the Board's work. We recur to the subject in this for mal manner, to tell . them that now the report is published in full in an Bvo. pamphlet,of 114 pages; an appendix being attached showing the amounts donated. by particular chinches. This Board employs three Secretaries; and we have been often reproved for not Censuring them for this, since we are so zealous for reducing the number of em ploYees in the Domestic Board. Our friends should note that we never opposed, but always advocated the employing of as. many laborers as there was sufficient "work for, in all the depaitments of our Beclesi' astical operations ; and the paying of them all, a fair and full compensation. fit is the employing of men for whoin there is no need, that we have opposed—the paying of idlers, the giving. of very high . salaries to .two men for doing but one man's work, and the adding of travelling expenses, also, when one or the other might choose to ride around and enjoy his leisure. •It is against this misuse of consecrated funds, this tax ing of the charities of Christ's people, that we remonstrate. Now, nothing of this occurs in the Foreign Board. There there is work to be done, and laborious toiling, faithfully and Usefully. The Christian may cast his pounds or his farthings into this treasury, with full -confidence that there will be a judicious and economical appro priation. The Secretaries of this Board, with the aid of a Treasurer, and some ,clerk hire, collect and disburse $284,037:. They have several missions in India, China, and Afri ca. They have one mission in Siam, one in Japan, arid one among, thn,Ohinese in California. They have missions among the' Chippewa, Omaha, Kickapoo, .otoe, lowa, Creek ) 'Choctaw, Chickasaw, .and Seminole Indrans., c 'They have mission among the Romaniste in: South. - America.- and they either aid. or ,employ laborks,ixn France, Geneva, Belgium,and,Holland',7,..and among the Waldenses.; They have'a . 'largeriiiiiilier of *Schools and Academies. ',`.Whey e'ortilitYt the translation and publication of the Scrip tures, and bf devotional books; and school books, in the various languages where their missions are established. 'Ai Many of the missions they are obliged to, build houses, clear lands, and conduct agricultural and mechanicaP operations. Works so numer ous, so great, so far separated,, so varied; so important, may well, in their dile manage ment, employ the time, talents, and ener gies of three good Secretaries and a Treas urer. _ • There are at the various stations, , Mis sionaries, American, 'B2, Native 6; Lay Teachers, American 187, Native 74; ,Com municants. 2,779; pupils,in the,course of instruction, 4,524. Here is an amount of well' being 'done, at which the Christian may well rejoice. The.labors of our Church, in the spread ing of the Gospel in heathen lands, ,are not in vain-. Presbyterians -may, to •this cause at least, be "'Cheerful" givers; and we may well add, libel* giVers also. We then earnestly commend ,the whole report, to.- the churches. Its being pub lished, as we remarked last week, as an extra tirthe' Home and For *cion Record, has given it a circulation far beyond which it could obtain as a, pamphlet, and relieves us. of the necessity of making, ex tensive extracts. ,RICR HD POOR'. Godito orders it: in the'dispensations of hiS providertee,;that there is nand. alvirays will be, rich men and poor men, the same community. Riches do - not, in any country, indicate a combination of all the -virtues, , nor poverty a predominance of any of the vices, but in a 'emintry like 'ours, where the avenues to 'wealth *are ecivally open to everyman, and where, emphatically; "the hand of the diligent maketh rich," , and where estates are not entailed, it may reasonably be expected thit, where there is moral excellence there will. not, unless un der,peculiar, providential , inflictions,: be inuth, Tealdestit4ion.. :Still; the posids ` i3ioO , of , this world's goods'is nelpatdistinc tiVe mark of real social worth; nitibhtitis is it a peculiar - feature of true piety; nor is the ,want of them to be regarded as a certain mirk either of idleness.or " Christianity admits of the distinctions of rich OA poor; and it secures 'to every man the eacefUl possession botlf of his own patrimony and.of the fruits,,of his own .in genuity.;and toil." .

They require mutual love and fraternal feelings, and these to be expreased by meeting together on common 'tern's.' A late, American 41eAserige2: liar, on this subject, some excellent thoughts, which we transcribe 'and commend : " The poor-always ye have withlyci"u." -In all civilized and Christian States, society is so organized 'as tipbring the rich and the poor together,' and make mutually 'de pendent. .Ordiriarily , they do not meet on the same , level. In - varibus respects; , the rich have greatly the advantage , of' the poor, but note in c all—ant in the most im portant': respeets. The %oftener -=they <•pan • meet on common ground thebetter for both, where they are reminded that they have brotherhood. Nowhere are these , condi tions so fully met as in ;the house of= God, where all the , accidental, distinctions of rank and property; are suspended. None rich, none poor , in . the sight:of God, tsave the poor in spirit, and the rich in faith and good works. All alike are sinners, bound to the,same judgment; needing, the same. parden,,,the same " washing of' regeneration and renew ing of the Hely .Ghost," the same preach ing of faith , andirepentance :from the pul pit. The grand 'design of public Worship is to bring person's of all classes' and con ditions together ":under` the same roof', to offer up their united = confessions, atipplica tions, and thanksgivings to Nipl With . whom " there is no respect: of' persons," and to receive that instruction • which 'is able' to make them wise unto salvation.

His:reputation for talents, piety,zeal, and. amiability, is such as must ; be ezzeedingly ,gratifying to 'seri viving friends, while,it:also indnees 'regret: that one so qualified for usefulness was so soon innioved.

Scarce ily a day ;passes without some outrage and death by. violence being brought: to light: The execution of Hicks, the Pirate, ,who murdered the Captain and crew of an oyster sloop for the sake of the Money on !`board, and whe, , if his own confession is to be believed,'was , stained with a hundred ether crimes, took place at Bedloe's IJast Friday. The,mode in which this affair was conducted, reflects ..but little credit on HMaishil .Rynders, who , had the matter in :charge.

The :JAPANESE EXPENSES have created quite a flutter, ~,Thirty. thousand dollars were apprepriated by . the city for the enter tainment,4 these heathen strangers, and this sum was thought extravagant. But the bills, when footed up, amount,to the emir:mous sum , of $120,000—590,0004 of which" are' . hotel expenses. Aldermen Beale and Van Tine, who'took such - an aCtiVe part in the ridiculens demonstra tions, have been, greatly agitated, at „the announeenient, and have labored assid ,mouslito have tre-bills:reduced, hut have. only succeeded to bringing them down to $109,000. As long as a great city Twill place such men in,anthority, the people may expect to be fleeced, 'and the municipality -to be r Made ridiculous.

Was 'then introduced, and stepping forward, said that he bad been called upon to deliVer an address, the sub ject of which was of pecuniary interest to every one, and of vital pecuniary interest to the merchants of this city. He then ad. verted to the foreign importations to this city for the past, four legs, from 1856 to 1860. During 1859 the direct importation of foreign dry goods from Europe to Phila delphia, amounted to $2,839,570, while the indirect, or that which comes through Ne w York, amounted to $21,815,430, showing a decrease of over $3,000,00.0 in direct im portations from 1856, and an increase or the indirect importations. Thus it will be seen that Neii Yerk is the foreign port of entry for Philadelphia. In 1859 there were nine thousandthree hundred and fifty. three direct arrivals in this city, and ten thousand. six himdred and ninety-six in direct, making an aggregate of twenty thOusand arrivals of persons. who passed through to the West... Outside of this, there were ftve thousand-persons who either staid here or passed through to the South. There is a noticeable feature which should be taken into consideration—that is, while the arrivals in this citythaire been about the same yearly, in 'New York they vary con siderably. In 1858 they were less by one half than in the Previous year. The num ber of foreign importing houses in the city of Philadelphia is about one hundred. They must consider that they are helping, to sus tain the line of steamships running between New York and Europe. They would, no doubt, support a line running from this city, if they '::were assured • that the rates would be as - as to New York ; emi grants would come, here, if the fare was as low, and the accoMmodations as good.
