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.

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.

LIFE AND CORRESPONDENCE OF JOHN A.

J. F. H. Claiborne. In two volumes. 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.

To say anything in the praise of the "Pilgrim's
Progress " is not required of us. But 'it is
proper to notice the peculiarity of this edition ;
that is, the engravings, which are ideal heads,
with the exception of the portrait of the author,
drawn in outline with great boldness and dis
tinctness, with intention of embodying in visi
ble shape• the strongly drawn character of the
book. 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. These are exceedingly
well adapted to give vividness to the .narrative,
which is mostly dramatic and personal.

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.

By the Asia, •
European dates are received to
the 25th of November. 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.
Mr. and Mrs. Dallas had, as invited guests,
visited Queen Victoria, since. the return of the
Prince of Wales.. This is regarded as an ac
knowledged appreciation , of the kindness shown
to the Prince in this ,country,*

AGNES CALHOUN, in the 84th year of her.age.
Her disease was a cancerous sore on her face, of long con
tinuance, and at times very painful. She was married twice.
Her first marriage was with Mr. James Miller, A. D. 1777.
He died April let, 1826. Some yearn afterwards she was
united in Marriage to Mr. Calhoirn, of Bearer County, Pa.
He also died about eighteen months afterwards, leaving her
to walk alone down the hill of life: and yet she was not'
alone, for she felt that her afflictions and bereavements wore
sent by him who doeth all things ‘i Well." Four of her sons
preceded her to the silent tomb. But she had hope in their
death, and was enabled to feel that her loss was their gain
M rs . C. was hopefully converted to God in her eighteenth or
nineteenth year,nnd was received into the fellowship of the
Presbyterian church of Lower Chanceford, York County,
Pa., and was a member of the Presbyterian Church about
sixty-five years. During her entire life she was a constant
reader of the Bible. It was her daily companion. The great
object of her life appeared to be to honor and glorify God.
DIED—At her residence, in South Fayette Township, on
Friday, the 28d 'ult., Mrs. ISABELLA, widow "of the late
David Harriett, Jr, in the 46th year of her age.
For the last thirty-two years. she 'resided in the neighbor
hood in which she died, and for the last twenty-seven years
was an esteemed member of the Presbyterian church of
Bethany. 'Her health was feeble for ten years past, and often
her bodily' affliction was severe; yet, with indomitable ener

the poor, her cheerful contributions to benevolent objects
and her efforts to do good in various ways, will long be re!

in charge of a family of six children, the youngest an infant.
These all survive, and were all at her bedside when she died,
and heard, as did many others present, from her dying Ups,
the victor's song: She died, as she had lived, in the faith and
hope of the Gospel. It waasthe privilege of the writer (for
many years her pastor,) to be present, during a few of her

aside. It is a work of standard character, to be readand
studied; full of thought and instruction, and attractive in
style.
Prof. Halsey is already well known and appreciated as a
writer on the literature of the Bible. The present work bids
_fair to acid to his popularity. His object is to inculcate Bible
truths through Bible characters, wills a special reference to
the interests of the young, in aiding them to develop their
own characters, and to regulate their own lives.
The titles of the chapters will give someidea of the varied
contents of this instructive volume: I. General Influence of
the Bible on Human Character. 2. Portraiture of Childhood
in the Bible: 3. The Heroic Characters of the Bible. 4.
Hinge and Statesmen of the Bible. 5. The PrOpheta and.

The_ Philosophical Works of Bacon
will make ten 'returnee of our edition, and will be numbered
from I to X inclusive.
The Literary and Professional Works
will make five volumes, and will be numbered front XI to
XV. As we begin with the LITERARY AND PROFES
SIONAL 'WORKS, (Which are complete in themselves,) the
first volume of our issue is'nnmbered XI on the back and on
the title-page. After colonies XII, XIII, XIV. and XV 'are
issued, we shall begin issuing the PHILOSOPHICAL
'ORKS, numbering the volumes from Ito X. Thus, when
the complete works arc published, the nninbering of the vol
umes will he found regular from Ito XV. In this way we
avoid the clumsy look of double title pages, and of doable
lettering on the back 'of each volume. We 'sine the LIT
ERARY AND PROFESSIONAL_ WORKS first, although
they come after the PHILOSOPHICAL in, the order of vol
umes, in order to meet the wishes of the public.
Thefifteen volumes of our edition will be a reprint of the
seven thick Svo. volumes of the English edition. .The Eng
lish editors often refer in <their prefaces and notes to other
volumes of this edition, meaning of course the English edi
tion. We have given the supervisors of the Press directions,
to change the references, so that this edition shall mean ours
in fifteen volumes. Thus, for example, the 'word three, first
page of the preface in volnme , Xl, third linefrom the bottom,
should be seven; and the words this votunte, at the beginning
of the next page, refer to the English volume which contains
the matter of volumes XI and XII, and asmall portion of vol.,
XIII in our edition. Errors of this kind will be carefully
avoided in the future. Only two or three of them occur in
this first volume of our reprint. •
We have to thank Mr. Spedding, one - of the English Edi
tors of BACON, for furnishing us with a list of errata, thus
enabling us to give the American public an edition of
BACON'S WORKS, nearer perfection than any ether edition,
in substance as well as farm. We- also heartily thank the
public for responding to our , appeal in this great enterprise
with more promptness and emplftis than we dared to hope.

Wilt DANVILLE QUARTERLY
REVIEW.
It is proposed to establish, at Danville, Kentucky, a new
and original Quarterly Publication, to be called the DAN
VILLE QUARTERLY REVIEW—and to be conducted by a
Society of gentlemen, of whom a portion are some of those
connected with the Presbyterian Institutions at that place,
and a portion reside elsewhere.
This publication is designed mainly for the exposit on, ad
vancement and defense of the Christian ..Rellgien, considered
in its purely Evangelical sense; and for open resistance to
whatever is hostile to it, or inconsistent with it. In perfect
consistency with that chief design, its pages will be open tothe
consideration of all other interests of man, and the discussion
of everything that promotes or obstructs any one of those
interests. The work is projected, and ;will be controlled by
persons, all of whom are members of the Presbyterian
Church in the United States of America, all of whom accept
the'Standards of that Church . in their obvious sense.
The - work will consist of about 175 pages in each quarterly
number—making - about 700 pages to the yearly volume;
never less—more of its income, shall justify it. his designed
that its mechanical execution shall be g
at least equal to any
similar American publication and strict punctuality is in
tended in the issue of every number. The price will be 13
per annum, payable on the receipt of the first number, with
the usual deduction to club..
Tito object of this published Prospectus is to ascertain pre
cisely, and at as early a period as possible, whether or not the
projectors of ibis work are correct in supposing that there is
such a necessity and demand for it, that the public patronage
will be sufficient to cover the actual expenses of it. If it will
not, the enterprise will- be allowed to drop. If it will, the
first number - will be issued very soon after that fact is ascer
tained. Every one friendly to the enterprise is therefore re
quested to obtain subscribers, and forward their names and
address, not later than the end of the current year; but no
money must be remitted until the first number is received by
the subscriber.
