Caffreland, and at a missionary station ea* the fruits of Christianity, and received homage and presents from the chief. On the Sth of November he arrived at Ply mouth, and eagerly pressed on to London to receive the affectionate welcome of fa ther, mother, and sisters. But there was gloom over the circle, because the elder brother was missing, and anxiety increased in the city and all over the land, ever since until Thursday, 15th inst. On that morn in.'pthe Hero and Ariadne steamed into Plymouth Sound. Instantly the palace at Windsor heard the ' tidittga, at Guildhall the Lord .Mayor read the telegram amid loud cheering, and'soon the whole nation was jubilant. LORD MAYOR'S DAY--Nov. 9th—was this year affected with sad associations. On that day, .two years (Nov. 9th, 18580 I saw, and had his friendly salutation as he passed, Alderman Wire go in the state car r i - age, n the habiliments of the Lord Mayor,-to be sworn in by the Judge at Westminster. On the corresponding day of the present year, he breathed his last. Last year ho was visited with an apoplectic seizure, and he has never since properly rallied. He presided over a gathering of Christian persons at the Mansion House in the beginning of this year, which was in vited, at the suggestion of the Evangelical Alliance, to hear statements with regard to. the Revival . in Ireland. At that meeting was Sir John Lawrence, as well as the young Sir H. Havelock—as I described their personel at the time. Alderman Wire was a lawyer by profes sion, who rose from a very humble condi tion to a station of wealth and influence. But what could this avail him. now ? He was the friend of philanthropy and pro gress, and an eloquent supporter, on the platform,. of many Evangelical enterprises. Chia is his true fflory ; as for the rest, we may well say of him, and others of 'a loftier station, who have lately passed away—in cluding Lord Dundonald, Sir Charles Na pier, (great Admirals,) the Duke of Rich mond, and other nobles of the land—" Ver ily every man at his best estate is altogeth er vanity." Lord Dundonald was buried, this week, in Westminster Abbey. Lord Brougham was one- of those present at the grave. The deceased sailor was eighty-five years old; the surviving orator is about the same age. How long are we to retain Brough am ? And shall the old Abbey be his rest ing place ? INDIA AND COL. SIR HERBERT ED WARDES have been both vividly before us this week, in a lecture delivered by that well-known soldier, and Christian orator before the Young Men's Christian Associa tion, in Exeter Hall. It is well that the claims of India should be constantly pressed home on the Indian Government, and that a public opinion should be found in Eng land, rendering it at last impossible to keep the Bible out of the Government schools in Hindostan. Col. Edwardes, with pecu liar vividness, pictured England's responsi bility; the impossibility of regenerating India without Christianity; the guilt of abandoning her to herself and to anarchy; the selfishness of that school of politicians that would offer her England's calicoes and. Sheffield wares "at the lowest possible prices," as if this were to prosper and set her free ; and finally, that if ever the day comes when England can•:, abandon India, it will be only when the Religion of the Cross shall be the emancipator first, set ting her free << with Imperial step "_to be a nation. • • Sir IL EdWardes will, I hope, ere long, have opportunity, in Parliament, to enforce his views; such a representative „man will surely find a constituency to .elect hint: I know not to what school of politics he leans—Whig or Tory—but, like Sir John Lawrence, he is a God-fearing man.- He loves the Bible, and the Saviour whom, it reveals, and believes that only " Righteous=ness exalteth a nation." The Government of India are bewinninc , to give way as to the claims of native Christians in Punjaub (Sikh) Regiments, and also as to inquirers. An order issued last March, apparently forbidding officers to answer any anxious inquiries, about re religion put by the men, has been explained away. The progress of Christianity in one Regiment which had originated at Delhi, and the possession of some Christian books, had been arrested by the conclusion drawn from the above order, viz.: that the Gov 7 eriiment would view with disfavor the.em 7 bracing, by any native soldier, of Christian= ity. • Now missionaries are allowed to come within• the, cantonments to hold services for native converts. This endorses Christian ity-so fat, as it,shows that,. once embracing it, the Sikh soldiers are not frowned upon. Thus inquiry is, if not stimulated, at least left free to seek after truth from its acored ited expounders t officers, also, may be present at the native services. several districts of Bengal .the work of eniiirersion progresses " like fire"' under the teachings, of ,the Clifirch Missionary agents. The Santhal Tribes, which the Society formerly wished to instruct, their offer being rejected; will now have faeilities fur obtaining light—the Government being ready to grant aids to schools among them. These things do not prove that Lord Canning is a friend to Missions in the sense we could desire, but they show that the Evangelical opinion of English Chriil tians is ever becoming an increasing power in India. Indeed, great hopes are cher ished that ere long there will be a frank admission ',of the Bible into Government schools in India. THE WAR IN . •CHINA has, by tbe: latest accounts, assumed a more decisive and sat isfactory aspect—specially as bearing on the future interests of Christianity, ,and the, opening up of the Empire to intercourse with Western nations. After the, captUre of the Taku forts, the allied army advanced' to Tien-sin. Thither came from Pekin, two Mandarins and 'Governors of Provinces with assurances that they were authorized by ;the Emperor to conclude a ,Treaty of, peace. After negotiations had been , car rta.on for about a week, and all the'details seettied .settled, the; Mandarins declared that they had no powers• to sign. a treaty They had said the very opposite a week-be fore. It was the old system of deceit tried over again. This time it did not succeed. Lord Elgin instantly and indignantly broke off negotiations, within the briefest possible space the allied army was in full march on Pekin, and when the mail left, was within forty-five miles of the Capital. That ought to have been the solution of the problem a week sooner. It is now discovered that the Emperor is a confirmed debauchee, confined to his bed . ,, an unfit for public business altogether; that the entire administration is in the hands of four Mandarins, (two of them those that met Lord Elgin,) and that these men are the tyrants of the people, and the lying deceivers who have caused all the mischief. As the ;Winter was coming fist, it is not impossible, the Times thinks, that Pekin may be occupied during the Winter. At all events, we are now shaking the Tar tar dynasty to its foundations, and God, I trust, is indeed in the storm, and will bring a great revenue of glory' to his name, by the breaking down of that " wall" which the system of exclusiveness placed between China and the regenerating influences of the Gospel, The Times correspondent with the army, gives the most graphic descriptions not only of the scenes of strife which he has witnessed, but also of the manners and habits of the people. Wherever the army marches, there is a systematie . pay-out for all supplies ,brought ' in, and = except in cases which cannot be arrested—they are preserved from outrage of any kind. The fruitfulness of the country—in millet, and cereals generally, as well, as in vines and other products—is something marvellous. The habits of the people are very filthy, and of course idolatry prevails. ' An untoward collision ha taken place between the a Tangpais ";(or "Rebels,''„ so called,) and the British, at. Shanghai. The Tangpais came to the neighborhood of Shanghai, and advanced in considerable numbers near the city, apparently with hostile intent. It may be true that they desired to occupy and possess Shanghai as a great entrepot for trade with western nations ; but if so, nothing could be More natural. They haVe made vast internal conquests; whole Provinces have yielded to their sway, but they need a seaboard and harbors. It has been truly said by an English. Presbyterian Missionary, that not more im portant is Leghorn to Piedmont, or Alex- andria to Egypt, than would Shanghai be to the Tangpms. On the approach, however, of about three thousand men, the British residents were panic-struck, and the allied troops opened fire from artillery and musketry. The re sult was that many of the " Rebels" "were slaughtered unresistingly! This, it appears, arose from their expectations to be peace fully received by professors of a " common faith." The proclamation, or rather ".re ply" sent by their leader, sufficiently ex plains this. it is as follows: I would submit to,you that I, under the loyal Prince, have the general command of a large body of officers and Of an innumerable army, and could have no difficulty in causing the in stantaneous destruction of• an insignificantly small city such as Shanghai. When I, therefore, come to the place and station my troops motion- less before it, it is really in a spirit of pure re gard and of consideration for our common faith. Had I at once ordered a hostile advance, the members of the - same house would have been turning against each other, and we could not have failed to incur the ridicule of the Teing dy- nasty. With the Tsing dynasty your nations have now a quarrel ; you cannot have forgotten the battle at.Tien-tsin. But our State, in at present carry ing on a war, has no other object than to regain our own country. We are at enmity with the Tsing dynasty, but with foreign . nations we have no quarrel. Your countries attach much importance to open commerce and trade. Now the advantages to be obtained from us 'would be greater than those given by the Tsing dynasty, for, after the establishment of peacful relations with us, un restricted commerce might be carried on at all places without exception. But the wild and fallacious nature of the com munication which has reached us is such as readers it quite inexplicable. I must conclude that there is no consideration for the feeling that should make us of one mind, in virtue. of our common religion, and that there is, it may be an intention of seeking a quarrel. The Rev. C. Douglas, our Missionary at Amoy, says that the second. King of the Taipings is a Christian convert and en lightened .man. The Times of this day writes in apparent ignorance of all this, and applies the most opprobious epithets to the " in surgen ts." The danger is that we shall incur guilt by opposing and punishing the Christian insurrection and its abettors, and that from a cowardly and covetous conservatism, which will persist in cleaving to the old Mantehou idolatrous dynasty. The Tai pings denounce opium. The Indian gov ernment gets from its sale, (to say nothing of the enriching of the British merchants,) several millions sterling per annum. More than this, Sir John Bowring hates the Taipings, because of their Tnnitarianism.. His son is an opium merchant, and he him self is a Socinian. The Taipings are also Iconoclasts. Hence the Romish priests hate them, and the Jesuits urge on the French at Shanghai. But if this new movement be of God, as we trust it is, it will prosper, let who will oppose, and wee to us if we'be found fight ing against Him. English Christians are strong enough to form a healthy public opinion on this question also, and in due time• to bring it to bear on our policy in China. It is not impossible that ere long Lord John Russell may have a conjoint Deputation waiting on him, to give him authentic information on the whole subject. The prayers of Christians all over the world should meanwhile, be fervent and unani mous on behalf of China and its teeming millions. ALL ITALY has DOW Victor Emananue., as its King, save Venetia, the citadel of Palermo, the town of Gaeta—where King Francis 11. has held out so obstinately— Rome itself, and that portion of the patri mony of the Church which France still' guards for the Pope. The King, Victor Emmanuel, is the elect of the Kingdom of the two Sicilies, has gone in state to the Cathedral, bowed before the altar, visited the relics of Januarius, accepted the na tional vote in his favor, and will remain for the Winter at Naples, ready for the even tualities of another Spring. And .Gari baldi What of him. Why he—the hero, the patriot, the noble-hearted and disinter ested, to whom Washington alone is a par allel—is now on his little rocky island of Caprera, in the Mediterranean—there eating his pollenta and drinking the milk of his oeats—after having conquered in nine vie tories, and set nine millions of Italians free I Garibaldi, true to Victor Emmanuel, even while detesting Cavour and his crooked, though clever policy, and not concealing his dislike of the Piedmontese Generals, rode with him to the Cathedral in the same carriage, presented to him the Two Sicilies as a part of his future kingdom, and then he laid.down all his honors. But ere he goes he issues a proclamation to his " Vol unteeks," congratulating them, indeed, in terms of stirring eloquence, as to what had been achieved, but telling them that one million armed men must be ready by Feb ruary or March, to set free their still en slaved Italian brethren. - He has accompished already projects that had, to diplomatists and statesmen of the or (Unary mould, the appearance of but fantas tic dreams. And if so, cannot he yet shake the manacles off the limbs of Austria— if indeed he does not set on fire the Tyrol, and rouse up Hungary, also. "the Haps burg dynasty, even while offering conces sions, is alike insincere and incomplete. The great mass ,of the Hungarians ,insist on the deficiencies of the New Constitu tional " Diploma," in the ,two vital mat ters, that it gives the Hungarian Counsel ors or Parliament, no power to impose taxes or resist taxation; 'when imposed by Austria, and that it has no liberty as to the raising of military forces. The issue must either be, a complete reCognition of their rights, or else a terrible uprising next year. Meanwhile Austria has established sig nals all along the Adriatic shores—so that in an hour they might bristle with fOrces to oppose a landing. To sell Venetia to Victor Emmanuel, she may yet be obliged to stoop ; and this for two reasons--lst, that Garibaldi will assuredly come forth in his might as the revolutionary leader next year, unless she withdraw her forces from the Italian soil. 2d. That it is whispered at Vienna that the French Emperor is pre pared next year to abet the designs of Vic tor Emmanuel and Cavour, on Venetia and the Quadrilateral. In truth all the world is now against Austria. As she has sowed, so she is reaping. Russia..does not forgive her "ingratitude" in not hepling her (who had trodden down Hungary in 1848,) in the Crimean struggles. Prussia is de terinined to be first in Germany, and pre fers not to risk anything for her rival. j. W. The Legislature of Vermont has refused to repeal the Personal Liberty act of that State. The vote to repeal was 58, (25 Re publicans, 831)emocrats ;) the votes against "iepealing were 125, (all Republicans.) • PRESBYTERIAN BANNER.---SATURDAY, DECEMBER 1 . 5 1 1860. Rev. Samuel V. Marshall.—This excellent minister died, as we learn from the Pres byterian Heald, at the residence of his brother in Madison, Ind., on the 30th ult., in the sixty4hird year of his age. Mr. MARSHALL was a Kentuckian. He studied Theology at the Seminary in Princeton, in the same class with our senior editor, with whom a lasting friend ship was formed. He was a man of supe rior mental abilities, but not faiored with good bodily health. His ministerial life was occupied, mainly, in the South-west. Consecration.—The newly appointed Bish op of Pittsburgh, Mr. DOMENEC, was con secrated, at the Cathedral last Sabbath, with great pomp; and in• the presence of a large assemblage. The sermon was preach ed by Bishop PuncELL of Cincinnati, one of the ablest Roman Ecclesiastics in the country. PRESBYTERIAL NOTICES.

New York : Harper 4. Bros. PittsbUrgh : Hunt 4- Miner, and Robert S. .Davis. Pp. 400, 392. Gen. Quitman was no ordinary man. Early cast upon his own resources, by industry, integ rity, and perseverance he rose to great eminence at the .bar, in the army, and in the State. With regard to State Rights he,was an ardent follower of Mr. Calhoun, and an able advocate of the views now unfortunately so prevalent in many parts of the South, and which threaten so much injury to our Confederacy. This 'biography is ably written and no where else will the reader be able to find such a full exposition of the state of feeling that has been prevailing for years in some sections of the South and which has at length developed itself in such a terrible and frightful form. Considered in this . light these volumes must be read with absorbing interest. RUNYAN'S PILGRIM'S PROGRESS.; Wm" SCOTT'S EXPLANATORY NOTES. Illustrated by Chas. Bennett.

Christian, Obstinate, Evangelist, Legali-• ty, Worldly:Wiseman, the Interpreter, and many others, appear here as perfect studies and stri kingly true to the reader's own conception of what they should be.

I feel warranted in saying, that they are a certain cure for liver complaints and all bilious diseases, no matter how diffieult or long standing. I myself was afflicted with this dreadful disease for ' over two years, and oh! how thankful I am that I heard of these Pills. I purchased of one of your agents three boxes, and before I bad finish ed the third box; was cbmpletely cured. I veri ly believe, but for. Dr. M'Lane's Liver Pills, I should have now been in my. grave ; but as it is; I am now enjoying the best of health, and stand a living witness of the efficiency of Dr. M'Lane's Liver rills. Besides recovering My health, I consider that I have saved in pocket some two or three hundred dollars physician's fees. This testimony I give you with the greatest of pleamire, and hope it may do something toward making these invaluable Pills known to all who are suffering with liver compluint. Wm.

The following is a sum -teary of the news : The allied army had arrived before Pekin, and negotiations had been proposed,.but not suppli cated, by the Chinese. Hostilities were re-com menced by the Tartars, who were repulsed in two different engagements. The allies were en; camped in a hostile position outside the walls of Pekin. There is but little' intelligence ' from Italy. The Neapolitan Ministry had bee!l chang ed, and Beorio had formed a new Cabinet. Vic tor Emmanuel vas expected at Palermo on the '26th ult.. The Piedmontese Parliament luidlMen 'convoked, and probably dissolved, to make room 'for the Italian Parliament. The report that the Duke of Newcastle is to be honored with the, Order of the Garter, is ,confirited. It was ru mored that negotiations had lotert commenced in Paris for the cession of Venetia. Iron ore is to be admitted into France free of • duty. The Em peror of France was expected to visit England, to meet. the Empress at Windsor. . The new loan for Turkey had been ratified by France. Walew ski had succeeded M. Fould as Minister of `State, and further changes were anticipated in the French Cabinet. A letter says that the Archbishop,of Paris has called the clergy of. Paris together, and urged them to collect money for the Pope in spite of any impediment raised by, the anthorities. It is said that, according to ancient precedent, if the Emperor could find three prelates MA ciently docile to join in the imposition of hands, the Pope.s assent to Episcopal appointments would be unnecessary. It is stated that, in a private communication lately addressed to Victor Emmanuel, the Em peror of the French intimates that if, within a period, King Francis does not evacuate Gaeta, the French fleet will no:longer interfere with the operations of the Sardinian sguadron against the city. , , The English papers express much gratification at the result of the Presidential eleCtion.
