made will soon exhaust the treasury, and that

One T 11031.49 CURTIS, and one J. L. liatch, of

ese Embassy, which they denominate a warning
in reference to the introduction of the Christian
religion in Japan, The following is a copy of
the curious ,The
PRILADELPEEIA, June 14, 1860.
To HlB . Highness . he Prince &Mae Boojeen
liami
:
It is'known to our wise men, that during the
stay of the Japanese Embassy :in this country,
and while returning. an board the United States
steamship, various attempts will be made -to in
duce some members of the Embassy to look fa
vorably on the Christian religion, the object be
ing its introduction into your country of Japan.
This.communication is written to his klighnes the
Prince, most respectfully to warn and guard him
sit all times against the efforts of Christian'
priests, who would thus interfere with the Jap
nnese people and their religious institutions;
and the writer would further inform the-Prince that
Me great majority of the scientific and philosophic
men of this country have no confidence whatever in
Me truth ; of the Christian religion. Signed, with
the greatest respect,
(Attest) J. L. HATCH. Thomas Cuwits.
Quite a 1 4 1'mm:a OF THE PASTORS . of our

The French Colonists.
The CoMmittee , of the Presbytery. of ;
Chicago take the first opportunity that,
the case allows, of informing our Christian
friends that we make no further call upon
their benefactions. for. tlip purposes of food.
and elivlring for their present necessities.'
With the means already fuptished and pltldg•
ed for these purposes, we can with reasonable
confidence say, that the people can bn 'car
ried through until the returns from, tbeirl
own labors, by the blessing of God on their.
lands and industry, shall fully 'enable their'
to sustain themselves.
They have begun to harvest a fair crop
of rye and wheat, and their potatoes, and
other Vegetables are affording them mime'
valuable portions of their maintenanCei ,
and their corn is very promising. ,
The demand on the provision fund haS'
been diinished for some weeks, and'we cau l '
confidently act on the hope that within two
or three weeks more it will be rediteed,to a
ery small amount, simply enough to meet
special cases.
As Winter is rapidly approaching, it is
very desirable that any donations of
clothing, now ready or provided, should'be'
sent on, as it will be a great aid to the peo-: .
ple in preparing to meet the severity of the
approaching Winter.
The Committee desire distinctly to acid,
that the demands for the prosecution of the
spiritual work amongst themere unaffected:
by the above statement. Church buildings, ,
Hehools and school-houses books and teach-;lers, are still to be supplied. And the Teal
work 3f organizing, compacting, and
training the into working,
stable Chris-'1
tian Protestant churches is but now begin
ning, and its difficulties and obstacles to be
appreciated. A great deal has been done
also in saving to them their property, and
enabling them to get the benefits of their
labor. Should the prothise of the growing
crops not be very greatly disappointed be
tween this and the Anson of gathering,
this whole people will be once more in a
condition to maintain themselves. To the
spiritual department of the work we, trust
the hearts and the hands of God's praying
people will ,be still so given, that God may
consistently carry it forward with increas
ing breadth and power.

RELIGIOUS TOLERATION IN NORWAY.-
Norway, thanks to the freedom of her State
Constitution, has never participated to any
considerable extent in the .persecuting
spirit of her sister kingdom—but there
have been considerable civil disabilities
under which the dissenters from the Estab
lished (Lutheran) Church have labored,
such as inability to hold office, liability to
taxation for the support of the Established
Church, Sce. One of these, the restriction
of office to members of the State Church,
seems to be in a fhir way of removal. At
the present session of the Storthing, or Na-.
tional Legislature, a resolution to suppress
the section which contained this article, re
ceived sixty-seven votes in „its favor, to
forty-four against it, only seven short of the
constitutional two-thirds. At the . next
session of the Storthing, in 1863, - it will
undoubtedly pass by the constitutional vote.
So pass 'away; one by . one, the barriers to
religious freedom.'

The following is from the Alexandria (Va.)
Gazette, of the 9th inst.:
At the recent session of the County Court, two
Men of mixed blood appeared .
'before - the 'Court,
and having proved Ahernselves to. be . octoroons,
,or possessing but one-eighth 'of negro blood, ask
ed
.;- the court to certify that they were no negroes.
The court having heard the evidence; granted
the certificate asked for. The object of this pro
(lessis to release the parties applying from the
obligatiolts.and penalties attached tofree negroes
by the laws of this. commonwealth. The -appli
cation was founded upon the following section of
the Code of Virginia:
' 4, The court of any county or corporation, Upon
satisfactory proof, bra - white person, of the fact,
may grant. to any, free person of mixed blood,
resident therein, a certificate that he is not a ne
gro ; which certificate.shall'protect such person
against the menalties and disabilities to which
free. negroes are subject as snch." , • ,
Thin is, we believe, the first application for the.-
benefit of this provision'of the State law' ever
-made in this county. '

ulation of forty thousand souls, now numbers but,

An Excellent Invention.
•
No; invention, of late years, has been. more
generally introduced into the families of the
land, or commended more 'of public attention,
than the sewing machine. But a few years have
elapsed since they were looked upon as novelties •
by our citizens '
• yet they are now recognized as
necessities, and are to be found in a large major- ,
ity of well regulated families. Of the various
machines before the. Public, there are a Mimber
which we from time to time have xecconiniended '
as worthy of the' attention of those who needed
articles of the kind. There is one machine, how
ever of which We have said but little, yet it is
worthy Of favorable notice at 'our hands. We
mean the " Howe New Shuttle Sewing Machine :"
the agency for the sale, of which is at No. 26
Fifth,Street, up stairs, and is under ;the 'man
agement of Mr. W. B. Lasscell,, a gentleman
who will take the pains to - • exhibit to thoie
who call 'upon him 'the operations' of the iniren •
tion. • •
We knOw several instances where other.
chines have been threwn.out of use.to give place
to this one, and in every instance,,hav,e they..,
giveri the ,fullest measure of satistatitlon. They
are much easier worked' thaa the heavier ma
chines, and their porter Just as great.. .Hence
therwill do the heaVist work without the Unit
tiring the operator. , This is a great arid 'decided
advantage, where the 'machines are in constant
use. The lighter fabrics midi:Rade up with the 'great;
est facility and accuracy ; and all work from the
finest-stitching upon silk or. linnen to'-the heavi
est and most substantial stitching upon coarser
fabrics; such as toetis'-herti , y• pants or coats, can
be executed with the greatest ease. In a word,
they will do all the sewing of a family or manu
factory, and are certainly deserving.of
amination at the hands of those who desire to
invest ihit machine of the kind.Trire PrOas... '

The value of this glue for domestic' purposes
is inestimable. The difficulty of .preparing com-

via, and is ready for application. It is put up in

appreciated the.. sentiments ;which dictated, the
wish, she feared that the full oecupation of her

MARY BUNYAN,
The Dreamer's' Blind Daughter.
A TALE - .OF RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION'.
BY MRS. S. ROCIIESTER FORD. of Louisville
1 volume. vizuo. 4SB pages. Illustrated. Price 81.00.
The great popidaritr of "Grace Truman," (of which
thirty thousand copies brave been sold,) will secure, for this
book, thotusauclz of traders.,
READ WHAT TEE PRESS 'EA I" OF IT.
From the Neo;;York Examiner.
Thn , nutnerows readers of "Grace Truman" have here
another work on a topic of deep and thrilling interest, from
thu antltor of that highly popular book. Mary Bunyan, the
blind d4sigider of ;,the Immortal dressier, is referred to re•
reatedly to his autobiography and eth o s. works. She was
about twelve years of age when Bunyan wan imprisoned in
Bedford jail, and hie anxiety on her behalf was one of his
principal causes of dletress in his long immisonment.
Aft drawn by )Ire. Ford, her character Booms to have been.
ono of great modesty and loveliness, and the story of her
love for - William Dormer, and of hie death for the cause or
civil and religions freedom, has much of the pathetic element
In It Mrs. Ford Is evidently thoroughly au fait in the inci
dents of,Bunyttn's family history, and in the topography:oft
Bedford and Miaow. We ten safely predict for the week an•
extensiT'e sale.
From the New-Port Evangelist
The simple incidents of Banyan's life, his protracted int.'
prieonment, his heroic endurance and lofty faith, are of them
selves full of the deepest and most Interest. It
needed only the picture of his blind daughter Mary, in her
gentleness and patience under sore misfortune, to give com
plctenust -to the tragic yet noble scenes in which Bunyan•
figures, so modestly yet grandly conspicuous. The author of
the volume before us has-carefully gathered up such histori
.cal facts, and they are fortunately numerous and well au
thenticated, as coubltbrow light upon. the subject, and has
employed them with great sagacity and eftectin the construc
tion of her story. .
From the American Baptist, N. Y.
The atmouncement of anew work from the pen of the accom
plished authoress of "Grace Truman," will send a thrill cif de
light through thousands of hearts. The book will be read with
an entheninein tnrely equalled. There will be many a mois
tened eye over the beautiful pages of touching scenes In the
history of one whom all know only to love. Before it a-as
out of the pressOlve tbonsand copies had been ordered, and
we doubt not it.will bare an immense sale.
•
Prom the Pittsburgh Chronicle.
This is tho last product from the pen of a lady whose
writings era, rapidly becoming popular. Her Mat work,
.• Grace Truman,. bad a sale of .over thirty thousand copies,
and this one 'is said . to be a bitter and a more interesting
book. „it is .a very pleasing.,.tale of fiction, the scene of
which is in "'3lerrie Nogland,"' and the chief character, the
immortal and norer-to-be-Ritgottins John Btmian, writer of
the Pilgrim's Progress. ,
