Cental Presbyterian Church, Uincinnati.=
We ohave before spoken of the work of
grace in progress in the Central Presbyte
rian.ohurch of this city. As the result of
this work, thete,,were added to the church,
last Sabbath,, thirty-seven on profession, of
their faitto nineteen of whom the ordi
nance ef baptism was. administered. The
scene was peculiarly solemn. and inapres.:
sive. There are still others who entertain
a hope , of; salvation,, and who are, expected
to make a ,public profession of their faith
at another time;; among these are three, or.
four soldiers. at the hospital. The good.
,work is still progressing, and numbers are
inquiring the way of salvation. At a public
prayer-meeting, on Sabbath evening, mem
bers of the church , expressed their grati-'
tude to God for what he had done for their
families, and, their sense of increased obli
gationte devote themselves heartily to the
service of the _Redeemer in labors for the
salvation of soule.--Presbyter, • ,

Where .shall we begin ? , Let the economi
zers look at that question seriously, fairly.
..We tender gratuitously the use of our pen
to help them to do so. We advise, that
they• do not begin at the altar'of God. His
ancient . ,people did so, and he complained
'of, by,lis prophets. Ye have robbed

There, is guilt ., enough resting somewhere
for the present war, but it cannot be charged
to religion, and its expenses should not be ,
takenfrom , God's treasury. .The missionary
contributions should not abate a penny.
The necessities of the maintenance of the

THE;AiRRICAN TRAOLSOCIETT.
This is one of the most influential of the
benevolent institutions of the country. Its
Amerkan Messenger, and its Child's Paper
are reed by, several , hundreds of thousands
of our : people, male and Tamale, adults and
children. And its issues' of small books
and tracts find their way into all parts of
the land. And all its publications are so
Attractive by the materials used and the

happily, " they are truly EVANGELICAL.

supplying the wants of our 'armies. In a

PREACHING E 'P L.
One of the evil 04?eque4 of oriw
ent imperfect and sitiful state, is the atrempt
to lay aside the appointments of God and
substitute institutions , of, our own in _their
place. This d . position always invades the
Church, When its spirituality is greatly on
-thev decline, and.. when its true-religions
•• life is
,almost gone. ~. I t was inthisway that
the. Divine ordinance of preaching was re
moved from the supremacy given it by the
Master, and various forms and ceremonies
introduced which gradually hid Christ and
hiin crucified freni, the imbeds ofPie,,peopie.
The Church had degenerated ; the fire - of
“its first Foie" had beborne nearly 'extinct;
and the commandiberite of 'irion . Were pre
ferred to the doctrines of Goa. It was a..
dark day in the ancient Christian Church. ;
c. when the preaching of. the G,ospel began to.
be:undervalued.
But the same tendency :to' lower the 'es
teem' "in 'which this ordinance should b 6
held, has been manifested an various ways
in our own day. At one tinie the effects of
what was not veryelegantly termed c 4 the
printed page;". was mhde the silbject 'of
most unrestricted Ouloo.y. Great as is the
value of the press 'under Christian
ence, it is never fitted to - do the work of
the Christian ministry in the preaching?, of
the Gospel. Then 'Caine' the colpoit
glowing with zeal aild`fitted'for iCreost'
portant work in the evangelization of n 1
But he , too was •in danger of magnify
his office unduly, and of. putting it it
, place for fore which it Was neVer
Under 'the pressure of the statements of
precylented success, some good people I
almost, disposed to conclude that , the, t
had come for dispensing with both mini
and 'sermon.. Afterwards it was not tine•om-`
mon for secular newspapers and popular
writers to declare that the advent of the
,public = lecturer ,had greatly lessened the .
sphere , of the •sermon as a' public; educator
•in morals, and as a' means of reformation
in the manners of the People.
The most cursory examination of the ',pur
poses to be accomplished by the preaching
of the Gospel a&describedie the Wora of
God, will show the utter futility of all
_
such preposterous claims. And the his
tory of the. Church.,proves . that in propor
tion as the preaching of God's Ward, by
his regularly ippointed ministers; deelf nea, ,
just in that proportion does pure r i elligien
retrograde.
In the last number of the North A.mer
iean Review, hi a notice 'of a. volunae
sermons, are some weighty and 'pertinent
thoughts oirthiz subject, the substance of
which we will endeavor : to give our rea,ders,
in our own. language. The writer Claims
that the New Testament decides' uneqiuivo
cally in ' fairer of the great supericrity
of the sermon over everythirm •thati, can
be substituted for ; it. The PotAnder
of our religion ordained the twelve :epos
ties and the 'seventy disciples 't& preach.
ThiS office occupies the principal plac'm in
his parting
,address. The Acts-.of the
Apostles speak constantly, of.. preaching,
'but make very unfrequent reference to
other means of grace. In the Apostolie
Epistles preaching is spoken of as the.. ; one
grand instrumentality of Divine;appoint
ment for the extension of the Church in
the conversion of sinners and' the edifice
tion of believers. In the Epistles of Il'Aur,
to TIMOTHY and Timus, rtr.les are give n 'to
direct them in preaching, but none, with
respect to the manner of;conducting any
other public religious service. The fa.i it is,
that the New Testament throughout, tea -ches
that the setting forth of the facts trzaths
and promises of the Gospel is the •chief
office in the Church, and the chief pur
pose for which a religious assembly was to
be convened.
- In the times immediately succeeding
Apostolic days, preaching. WRS • the chief
part of the public service, and then great
means relied on- for producing , spiritual
effect: But 'as primitive piety waied dim,
the sermon was held in less esteem _How
ever, preaching revived with the dawn.'
the Reformation, and it has been signally
honored in •every great 'awakening of reli
gion in the world. LIMIER and Biir,A.Nc-.
THON, ZWINOLE and °ALVIN WIORLIVFE
and LATImEn, 'HAMILTON ; , and KNox,
were among the mostpowerful and pungent
•of preacher& The preaching of
.W.EtrrE
MLA and the :VITER,Evs awakened the
British Churches froni the fearful slumlber
into which they had fallen, and begart, a
new era of fervent piety. And when 're
. ,
ligion was to lie revived in this eounitry,
:the Gospel was preached in deinonstratdon
of the 'Spirit and of power by .inen iike
EDwAuDS and DAVIES. And when the
Church was to be aroused, and men's con
sciences awakened in later tiMes, the
preaching of the Gospel by men like MC
MILLAN, MARQUIS, SMITIT," NETTLETON,
Gitirrxx; and NELSON'; was the instrumen-,
tality especially honored of God. Nor
have we any evidence ,from the history of
the Church, that God has ever .remarkably
revived his work in the conversion of. sin-
ners and sanctification of believers without
employing;; the preaching of the Gospel
with renewed vigor, earnestness,. and.
Vital piety Ito always flourished: most wltcp.;

We will,now give a feW-quotation,s from
leading' English journals : , „
The London Times, of the 6th, 'contains'
a' strong .anti-war;-article, in .which occur
these passages.: •
"We -confess freely that,' great as the
provocation has been/and opportune as the,
Moment Appears for exacting all-the satis
faction.we'caw .possibly require, we, shrink
from, ilte' idea of war. We are not insen
sible to'the advantage of the sudden open
ing to us of , the Southern cotton market, and
we are by fib Means intimidated by the;only
threat of - all that has been launched against
us which the. United States are able to. Oi l -,
form—the threatoof confiscating; the prop:-
erty which British subjects have intrusted
to their honor and to that of their people:
We are slow to believe that even those :who,
make such a menace are capable: of execut
ing it, and we are firmly convinced that this'
country would" agreeto no 'peace-which did
.not make the most ample provision.for born

wrong.: Such conditions have been:made
by Great' Britain before 'now,;af 'the con
clusion of wars more prolonged 'and more
formidable than any conflict with the
.United States is likely to prove. `Still we
have - ample reason for sincerfly,hoping that
War .may not,be forced 'upon us. :Beyond
the'opening to us of the •cotton market, we
have no gainto look for from a contest with
America. We; do not covet their lands or

No effectual resistance could be made
to -a ,eonibined Attack .ot . our four iron
frigates,. in case the British government
wished to dictate their own terms, of peace,
by laying the'..fleat broadside on to the
streets .of New-York and Hoboken. This
could be done without the smallest risk to
the =iron ships. On i the Canadian lakes we
do not , possess the same advantage as on the

TILE FRENCH. PRESS AND. TILE SURRENDER.
Public opinion among nations, as - well as
with, individuals, has become an immense
power. Kinks and Einperctrs dear to if.
Cabinets and armies fear it. Even ,the
Pope would propitiate, it. Well
• then may
the United States have an anxious desire to
meet its. approbation. And happily the
public opinion which now is gaining so ;
great an 'ascendency, in it much of
moral rectitude.
r
We transfer` to our columns he expres
sion of satisfaction, of a few of the Paris ,
journals, orchearing of the amicable settle
ment of the Trent difficulty.
Galignctna says :
" The feeling of our contemporaries in
clines more toward America than England
in te matter, and some of those journals
even, go to. the length of imputing to the
ri.tish. Cabinet a, desire to fasten a, quarrel
on America on any pretext, however.,
futile.
Such a supposition' we conceive to, be
corn:
.pletely unfounded, first, because ,England
has enough" to, do, at m
home with her anu
factures :and commercial undertakings to
render , a war anything but popular,; and
next, because the ,American nation is not
one..47tai any Power 7DhateVer would, choose
to, encoizzoir xn,. th,e #eld,Unless urged to such,
a course some strorg necessity."
The Journal des Dehats remarks :
" The outburst of joy which has taken
place in London on the receipt of the news,
and' the testimony of ewhieh' is brought tit'
us by the English journals, sh,oics 'td what
4egree l Englaiarl dreaded weir; after hav
ing adopted, perhaps too' precipitately, the
very system of conduct calculated• to render
inevitahle. England not only uses the.
language of satisfied' National pride, but
breathes 'freely like a. man; who finds a
' heavy weight removed from his breast."
The Temps expresses` itielf in - these
terms
"Honor to the Grove,rnment of the
United States as well as to public opinion
in America To admit the necessities of
a ; situation, and, to conform to, it, with a
manly resignation,_ is a. proof of wisdom
which.,is not very com,mon,,amang nations
and' Governments.„ The American Govern
ment, in releasing the prisoners, has doubt
less done nothing , more ,than 'apply the doc
trines which , it, has constantly profes,sed
and, at the same time it,wards' off a great
danger. To do so has not the.less required
great strength of _mind, ; great,.moderation,
and great command over itself., We have
faith in that strength in that, moderation
and in, that self-command. -If, moreover,
President LlNgoLpr wishes,,to,prown his
work and restore to the incident of the
Trent its true andgeneral signification, he
has only to solemnly consider the 'remelt!-
' strances of England, as,att abandonment of
the , old maritime policy of _England. The
staisfaction of the ',moment is for England 4,
the, real triumph is . in. every. wry. ,the
United • qta,te.s, and . for the cause of _the
freedom of the seas. This precedent is
destined to be deeply engraved in the
memory of nations. It hasheen said that
England,and the English Government hold
in reserve other motives and other pretexts
for war. That maybe. Possible - but she can
now be defled,to make use :of them, as
_pa
lie opinion would jorbid,ft. Already divid
ed, before the victory which. the Cabinet at.
Washington has just gained. over itself,
public feeling, will, hecome unanininus If
-
we arenotraistaken t .a great phange in fa
vor of the United. States, is about to take ,
.
place, .not only in _England, but in, every
country. This incident wasperhaps neces
sary to make the Old, World feel by what,
Bonds, the United States t were, connected
with it. The South had considered the cap
_
ture of the Plenipotentiaries as eqnivalent
to a victory; it, will not be , mistaken in re
garding their, release s an omen .of
defeat." •♦
