PERSONAL.
Miss Mary C, Latta, a member of the Pres-

sailed from New-York -a few weeks since,
to engage as a teacher in the Mission Fe

tersburg, Virginia, lately baptized two hun
dred and twenty-live persons by immersion
in about two hours. He says be could bap
tize one thousand in that way between
brenkfitst and dinner. Rather quick work,
we should think.
fongregational.—The Rev. Abel Mehlwen,
MD., died at his residence in New-London,
Conn. on Friday morning last, at ,
.the ad

the pastor of the First Congregational

century, but during the last few years had
been assisted by a colleague: He was' a
elass.mate at Yale College of' John C. Cal
houn, and his successful competitor for the
Y aledietory.
011eliderf, whose name appears on most
grammars of foreign languages used in the
United States, is not a myth, as many sup

Paris, and frequently advertises in the
'l..onclon Times, in order to caution the pub
lic against the many bogus 46 011endorfs"
circulating under his name.
Garibaldi recently disguised himself as a
fisherman, and clambering the mast of a

DT. Caird's Sermon,—Messrs. Blockwood
gave the Rev. John Caird $5OO for the
copyright of his sermon, Religion in Com
mon Life, which, as it was oniy a shilling
pamphlet, appeared very handsome. The
sale, however, having gone far beyond
their expectations, they afterwards presebt
ed the Rev. author, of their own accord,
with an additional sum of $2,000.
The Unitarians have lately been making

Diseases of the Liver.
When the celebrated Dr. Rush declared that
drunkenness was a disease, he enunciated a truth
which the experience and observation of medical
men is every day confirming. The many appa
rently insane excesses of those who indulge in
the use of spirituous liquors, may be thus ac
counted for. The true cause of conduct, which
is taken for infatuation, is very frequently a dis
eased state of the Liver. No organ in the hu
man system, when deranged, produces a more
frightful catalogue of diseases. And if, instead
of applying remedies, to the manifestations of
disease, as is too often the case, physicians
would prescribe with a view to the original
cause, fewer deaths would result from diseases
induced by a deranged state of the Liver.
Three-fourths of the diseases enumerated under
the head of Consumption, have their seat in a
diseased Liver. Dr. M'Lane's celebrated Liver
Pills, prepared by Fleming Bros., are a certain
cure.
Purchasers will be careful to ask for Dr.
Urbane': Celebrated Liver Pills, manufactured by
Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, Pa. There are
other Pills purporting to be Liver Pills, now be
fore the 'public. Dr. ArLane's genuine Liver
Pills, also,his Celebrated Vermifuge, can now be
had at all respectable drug stores. None

PRESBYTERIAN BANNER.---SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1860.

The weather has been fine throughout England,
and the harvest prospects were promising. This
favorable change was exercising a buoyant in

PARIS, August'2B.—The Count De Persigney,
in his capacity a.President, opened to-day the
sittings of the General Council of the Depart
ment of the Loire with a speech. ,
The Count commenced by observing that he
was about to examine the existing, probabilities
of pence being maintained in Europe, and said :
The, Emperor's programme of Bordeaux has
not been changed. Without pretending to abol
ish war, the Emperm 4 has, - however, repudiated
the inheritance of mere fighting for the sake. of
vengeance for the defeats of the first Empire.-
Before the inauguration of the present Empire,
two extraordinary questions were pending, viz. :
The question of the East, and that of
neither of which could be resolved by means of
diplomacy. Although the wars resulting from
these questions could: not, be avoided, :they were
carried out with promptitude, and the klmperor
succeeded in realizing, the objects for which they
were undertaken.
The destruction of Sebastopol prevented Ens
sia from taking possession of Constantinople,
and the Eastern. question was contid.ed to the
charge of united Europe.
As regards the war iu Italy, the Italian States
were delivered from Austrian domination, and
the principal object of the war was thus obtained.
Although the Italians now jeopardize the inde-
pendence which they acquire in consequence of
the war, the principle of non-intervention, now
a recognized rule of international policy, exer
cises a dominating influence over the further de
velopment of the question.
These are the only questions which occupy the
attention of Europe at the present moment.
The apprehensions entertained in Germany re
specting the Rhine frontiers, and thelears of an
invasion current in England, do not merit serious
discussion.
The Rhine is no longer a ,strategic frontier.
France, being much stronger than Germany as
divided, will never support the project of Ger
man unity for atiy compensation she might ob
tain,
Concerning the relations between England and
France, neither of these two Powers desires to
enter upon such a terrible struggle as a war be
tween them would be. The English nation is
peaceful. Their virtuous Queen and the eminent
men in power desire to maintain a good under
standing between the two nations. In view of
so many great results obtained by France, and
the lustre which 'they throw around the French
nation, it is natural that uneasiness and distrust
should have arisen in Europe. -France however,
did not create the complications in Italy, neither
did she counsel Austria to follow the fatal policy
which led to the rising of the Italians, nor is she
responsible for the treaties which Austria con
cluded with the Italian Princes. France used
every possible effort to prevent the conflict. If
the Emperor kept silence before the outbreak of
the war in reference to his promises to repulse
the attacks of Austria upon Italy, it was with
the motiveof leaving the Italians in ignorance of
his powerful assistance, which, had they been
aware of would have spread increased excite
ment among them.
Thus the silence with which the Emperor has
been reproached was disadvantageous to himself
alone.
The same can be said in reference to the ces
sion of Savoy and Nice to France.
The Italians, after the conclusion of the peace
of Villafranca, having acted in violation of that.
treaty on the other side of the Alps, France
could not renounce her Alpine frontier, seeing
that a great. Italian 'kingdom' had been constitu
ted. France has never concealed her intentions,
either from Sardinia or from England. She has
deceived nobody.
The Emperor has certainly. replaced France in
her legitimate position, without shaking the con
fidence of. Europe. Taken as a whole, his poli
cy was pure and honest.. If he has Made war in
Italy it. was only because the other Powers were
not, willing to engage on their own responsibility.
As soon as it was possible to arrive at a definite
result he concluded the peace desired by the
world.
Since 1816 France has been forced to follow
the role imposed upon her by the treaties of Vi
enna. Another spirit now reigns, and the polit
ical system of 1815 has been subverted by Eu
rope herself. This system was the result. of a
violent transition, which by two great convul
sions entirely disturbed the European equilibrium.
Since then it has been the great interest of Eu
rope that a general reconciliation should be ef
fected between the different Powers, and that
France should, by common consent, resume the
position which belonged to her in the Councils of
the Powers. She no longer threatens nor is
threatened. Her work is achieved, and the
mission of the new Empire is accomplished. •
The military rode of France in Europe is at an
end. It affords me great happiness to be con-.
scientiously able to say that an era of peace and
prosperity is now opening for Europe.
A telegram from Naples, dated the 6th, ark
nounces that Garibaldi and his forces were at
Palermo, and their immediate arrival at Naples
was confidently' expected. The King of Naples
was to leave the same day for Gaeta.
Eight Sardinian frigates were in the bay of
Naples, with two regiments abroad.
The British steamer alweit, which was taken
by the Garibaldians, had been recaptured by a
British war steamer.
Garibaldi arrived at Palermo on the 6th, and
was expected at Naples immediately.
The members of the British Parliament and
other Englishmen are on board a Sardinian ves
sel on a visit to Garibaldi, with a Message from
Lord Palmerston, deprecating an immediate at
tack on Rome or Venetia as compromising Gari
baldi's success.
Another line of battle ship has left Toulon for
Naples.
Sardinia has stationed twenty thousand troops
on the Roman frontiers in consequence of a certain
proclamation of Gen. Limorciere.

Zvery scholar knows, the value of Herodotus, the "Father

for commentary upon the remotest historical antiquity.. The
version by Itewlineon is excellent, and the illustrated matter
rare and rich beyond precedent in editions of Rerodotus."

The work will doubtless long hold the place of the Stand

• , From the Detroit Advertiser. •
Next to the . Iliad :and the Odyssey, Herodotus has been
pronounced the greatest effort of Greek literary genius—the
one the perfection of epic poetry, the Other the perfection of
epic prose. The notes throw much light - upon the text, and
make what might otherwise seem obscure to the modern
reader, clear and intelligible.

Mal research, but they exhibit in a • high degree that power
of dramatization which cannot fail to make theni very de
