armies they have, give Lee but men

A Grateful Acknowledgment.
MUMS. EDITORS :—Tike writer and his family
have lately been palled to sympathize deeply
with those ministerial brethren and their fami
lies who in time of need have been so kindly
and generously treated by the churches, and
therefore feel constrained to ask the privilege of
making this acknowledgment.
On 'Thanksgiving—which proved to us a very
happy day—at the close of the public services, the
congregation was requested to remain for a little
while, as business, of importance would be
brought before them. The result was, that on
the following Saturday, the day of preparation
for the Lord's Supper, the Wiles banded over to
their pastor the biggest roll of bank bills that it
has been his privilege to handle lately ($165,)
with an intimation that they would make it two
hundred dollars,
This liberality has truly affected us, as it re
lieved pressing necessities. That the authors of
this noble generosity may inherit the true riches,
and occupy mansions of eternal rest, is the
daily prayer of their unworthy pastor.

A Surprise.
Masons. Enrrons :—Thanksgivint day in
Bethel congregation was one of _such interest as
to be long remembered. The day was pleasant,
and the congregation large. The pastor lied re
turned-but a short time from a visit to his friends
in Union County, Pa., and also to the , city of
Brotherly Love.
The services of the morning consisted of a
prayer-meeting, followed, as usual, by" a Thanks
giving sermon and other appropriate exercises:
At the close of these.services, contributions were
taken up for the Christian 'Commission; in con
nexion with Church Extension, to the amount of
nearly seventy dollars. When the people were
dismissed, one of the elders rose and gave -no
tice that the congregation would now retire to
the house of the pastor, where a public dinner
was in waiting. And just here, Messrs. Editors,
was the point of surprise, not to the people, but
to the pastor. What does it mean ? Come and
see. The pastor starts for his residence, fol
lowed by the flock to the number of about two
hundred and thirty persons. Borne few could
not be present. In the yard .to the North-East
of his residence, all were brought to a halt and
formed in a circle, with the pastor in the centre.
At this stage of the business, when all were si
lent and attentive, .Prof. Stilley, of Bethel Atm

manner—rehearsing the long-continued pasto
rate of nearly thirty-two years, its trials and
vicissitudes, with the love and affection of the
people during all this time; and now when age
was creeping upon the pastor, as well as the
pressure of bodily disease, he said he was com
missioned to present him with a belutiful "port
monnie," which he held in his haffd, well filled
with bank notes, amounting to the handsome and
most liberal sum of two hundred dollar:_ After a
short response from the pastor, the invitation
was given to advance to the dinner table, where
a repast was prepared with which kings and no
bles might well regale their taste and satisfy
their appetite. The tables were laden with all
the good things of this life. After all were
served, to the number of Iwo hundred and thirty
or thereabouts, there was a large surplusaeft—
enough to satisfy half as many more. And if
not twelve, more than seven baskets full of these
good things were left for the pastor's family.
But, Messrs. Editors, valuable as this gift is,
and would be at any time, and especially in these
times, the spirit of love and affection manifested,
enhanced the value of the gift an hundred fold.
It was the spontaneous outpouring of a liberal
charity from a noble-hearted and liberal peo
ple to their pastor, who has become old in the
service of Christ amongst them. Here were the
aged fathers and mothers, some of them fast
verging on eighty ; themen and women in the
maturity of their days the youth of the con
gregation and the little children, all vieing to
show their love and interest in-their pastor's wel
fare. It was a scene that can never be forgotten..
My prayer is, and shall be, that God will bless
them in their basket and store—bless them as
individuals, families, and as a church; and that
at last, when, life's journey is over, each and
all may be prepared for and enter itpon the jiry'
of that Lord. and Saviour who hath said: 4, Inas
much as ye have done it unto one'of the least of
•these thy brethren, ye have done it unto me.
Enter ye into the joys of your Lord." G. M.

Vermilion Institute.
DEAR BANNER:—As your columns are always
open to communications involving the interests
of education and religion, permit me to refer
briefly to.the Vermilion Institute, of Ilayesville,
Ashland County, Ohio, which I recently visited
in company with a meinber of my family, now a
student in that. institution.
While other literary institutions have suffered,
and, some of them have gone down, under the
.prOBFIIII- of, theee calamitous times,, this • stfil,,re
mains with a large and increasing number of
students, from different and distant parts of our
beloved country. This institution has become
extensively known, and deservedly popular,
through the energy and efficiency, and superior
scholarship of.the Principal, Dr. Diefendorf, and
those associated with him as Professors in the
various departments of-literature usually found
in the best colleges of the land..
But in addition to all the facilities here fur
nished to secure a first-rate education—an edu
cation elementary, practical, classial and scien
tifie—there is another attraction that must not
be overlooked. -This is the remarkable cheap
ness of living. The cheap rates-of thirty years
ago are kept up, notwithstanding the high prices
of these 'war times. Eminent usefulness seems
to be the great object of the Principal, without
regard to- pecuniary profit. At the same time,
money is now indispensable for the erection of
new buildings, that are absolutely necessary to
accommodate the hundreds of students, both male
and female, attracted to this seat of learning, as
well as-to indemnify the Principal for those pe
cuniary sacrifices which must be made in sus
taining this Cheap standard of living, in the
present critical state of our national affairs.
" Vermilion Institute," although decidedly a
Presbyterian institution, is 'patronized by all de
nominations of Christians, and by some friends
of solid erudition, who are identified with no
branch of the Christian Church whatever. It
has heretofore been under the care of the RiA
land and Wooster Presbyteries; and by a recent
act of the Synod of Ohio, it may now be regard.
ed substantially-as a Synodical College. And it
is believed, that 'the churches in the bounds of
this Synod will respond with cheerful and gen
erous liberality to the call for the requisite funds
in the present emergency. How many of God's
dear people in these churched and eldewhere
could contribute of their abundance for`this - no
ble object while they live, and in the nroapect of
death remember it bountifully by pecuniary aid,
in their`" last will and testament.
• The government of the institution is paternal,
kind, free and religious, in, a prOminent sense.
And with Heaven's rich blessing so accompany
prayer' and adequate effort, Vermillion Institute
will be established on apermanent basis, and.
threugli enamel:re generations prove indeed a
fountain. whence streams. may issue forth to
"make glad the city of the God." DELTA. -
Duffs Mercantile' College, Pittsburgh.
Such of our readers as are desirous of obtain
ing a - thorough 'business education, will read
with interesfin our columns to-day the adver
tisement of this long-established ptiptilar
tion. For theinformation of our distant readers,
we may state that its founder has long held a
high , place in the esteem and' confidence of this
community. He has earned his title to that po
sition by many years of well-done professional
service" and Mr. Buff, the younger, has already
distinguished himself as an accomplished bus
iness and ornamental penman.
In giving an opinion of the relative merits of
this time-honored institution; we do no injustice
to others by stating what all - Must admit, viz.:
that it- possesses several prominent advantages
for the baldness student altogether pecidiar to
itself. First—its establishment" dates back near
ly a quarter of a century. Second—its perma
nence is undoubted, it-never having changed
hands nor suspended business. The proprietors
have their own text-books upon Book-keeping,
Ashioh, from the emphatic testimonials from high
and unimpeachable sources, appended Co their
pages, are undoubtedly prepared with great care,
and no ordinary business talent and experience;
and the ability that produced these books must
be equally effective in teaching, and reducing to
practice the subject of .which they treat. We
therefore cordially recommend this favorite in
stitution to the full confidence of our readers,
and as itis always safe and fair for all parties to
confer with some of , our reaident . business men
upon, such matters, we think they will confirm
the opinion we have stated.—Pittsburgh Gazette..

DrED--On Friday, December 4ti, at his resi

Esq.
The death ,of this Indy excellent citizen has
not failed to cast "a die') gloom'"around the
hearthstones of kinsfolks and friend's. He was
born in the old Third Ward, Pittsburgh, a dis
trict that, notwithstanding its antagonism'to his
political sentiments, did not refuse to recognize
his high integrity. •
Asa magistrate, full of the sympathiei arising
from a- thorough audy - ef human nature,-he did
not omit, under the deep sense of his duties to
the public, to { , temper justice with mercy," thus
acoompliishing the great - purpose of the law in
his efforts to reform offender&
His rectitude as a public servant at a subse
quent period induced' the municipal authorities
of his native city to distinguish him by their
confidence, in electing him to its Treasurership;
and the ripe intelligence that was abliMiant with
the fruits of early study and Manhood's close
application, at a liter period elevated him..to a
prominent official position, in our common
schools.
As au Attorney-at-Law, he was universally,
respected by his, associates at _the bar, and by
those who employed him officially. With a nat t
orally delicate constitution he combined -a
marked; energy of character, which constituted
him a leader- in more than • One, benevolent and
financial enterprise.
His "lines were only cast in pleasant places,"
when struggling for the spiritual and temporal
interests, not alone of his own hoesehold, but of
the subjects of oppression throughout ,the world.
H 6 was firm , in his political and theological
doctrines, - but never offensive, so far as a life
long acquaintance can testify, in the utterance
of his peculiar views. - •

DIED—In West, Kishocoquillas, on the 26th
of November, Mrs. ANNA REBEKAH, wife of
Mr. J. Clarke Wilson, aged 21 years.
DlED—November Bth, 1868, of -4 wound re
ceived in the battle of Kelly's Ford, Capt. T. L.
MAYNARD, aged 32 years.
Capt. Maynard was born in Conway, Franklin
County, Mass. He spent the earlier part of his
life in his native State, but subsequently came to
Washington County, Pa., where be was engaged
in the business of teaching, and finally to Sharps
burg, Allegheny County, Pa. While at Sharps
burg, he united with the Presbyterian Church,
and continued one of its most consistent and valu
able meniberd. At the Breaking out of the rebel
lion, from evident motives of patriotism, as well
as a deep sense of duty, he enlisted as a volun
teer in Company B, of the 63d Pa. Upon the
organization of the company, he was chosen
First Lieutenant; was afterwards promoted to
Captain, and, at the time of his death, was Aid
on the staff of. the Brigade General. He was a
brave man, the bravest of the brave, dearly be
loved by those who knew him'; and better than
all, a man of undoubted piety. While consider
ing the question of duty as to entering upon the
service of his country, he evinced a conscien
tiousness which none but, truly Christian man
Is capable of doing, and in all the temptations of
a soldier's life, he never brought dishonor on the
name of his Master. "As the 4 3d, Corps was
marching by Kelly's Mill, there !vas lying at the
road-aide a wounded Confederate Captain. Capt.
Maynard alighted from hie horse to render him
assistance. He lifted him up and poured some
water from his canteen upon his lips. As he
was discharging this act of mercy, he was struck
by a stray ball and mortally wounded. He lived
a few hours, and died leaning upon the bosom of
his Saviour." In his death the country has lost
a brave defender, the world has lost a useful
man, and the Church one of her brightest Orna
ments. S.
DIED—On the 10th of November,lB63, in
Huntingdon, Pa., Hon. JAMES OWIN, in the
64th year of his age.
The deceased was a native of the town in
which he died, and where, for many years, he
was an influential and highly esteemed citizen.
During his life he filledplaces of honor and trust,
to the entire satisfaction of all. He was also for
years a most worthy and consistent member of
the Presbyterian Church.
As a business man, he was accurate in all his
transactions, and prompt in meeting all
. his en
gagemen.ts. As a - neighbor, he was kind and
obliging, always maintaining that uniformity of
doportment and cordial manner which made the
true Christian gentleman. As a Christian, his
piety was unobtrusive, but sincere. He loved
the sanctuary and its services, and his place was
seldom vacant.
His. Diary, in which he was in the habit of
noting down, from time to time, some of his re
ligious feelings, shows him-to have been an hum
ble, grateful Christian. In his last sickness,
which was sudden, and severe from the first, he
expressed his unwavering trust in the Saviotir
of sinners. -
In his death our community has lost a most
valuable citizen, and the Church an exemplary
member. His family have sustained an irrepar
able loss,'-but they are comforted with the well
grounded hope, that their loss is his'unspeakable
gain.
DlED—September 4th, at his residence,- in
Agricola, Poweshiek Connty, - lowa, Rev. JAMES
GitEENE, aged 65 years.
Father-Greene: was borne.in Cookstown, Ire
land, January, 1798, was educated at one of the
Universities of that land, and entered the min
istry. He emigrated to this country in the
Spring of 1838, and settled in Pennsylvania.
In the Summer of 1854 he removed to lowa.
The earlier years of his ministry were spent
in connexion with the Associate Reformed
Church. After his removal to lowa, he trans
ferred his connexion to the - Presbytery of Des
Moines. For two or three years previous to his
death, he had been at times quite infirm, but
continued with little interruption, in the labor
which he loved, until ,a few months before his
death. Humble and sincere as a man ; faithful,
earnest, and eminently Sorptural as a preacher,
he was respected and beloved by the people of
his charge. J. hi. B.
DIED—In camp near. Vicksburg, on the 11th
of July, 1863, SAMUEL NEWTON ENGLISH,
aged 23 vyears and 10 monthit.
The deztased enlisted in Co. 11, 26th Reg't
lowa V. 1., in August, 1862, and shared in all
thnprivations and 'Weary marches of his com
rades up to the 11th day of January, when he
was, thrice wounded at Post Arkansas. After
nearly three months absence in hospital in Mem
phis, he returned to his regiment, (which was
then engaged in the siege of Vicksburg,) only to
hear - the glad "tidings of the surrender, relapse
into insensibility, and, one week later; to "sleep
the sleep that knelt's no waking."
He had. been a member of.the Presbyterian
church for two years previous to his enlistment,
and his place inthe church and Sabbath &hoel
was seldoni vacant. He was an affectionate
friend, an obedient son, and a faithful soldier.
Cheerful in life, and patient in all his sufferings,
his end was peaceful, and we are cheered by the
hope that he had an interest in the blood of
Jesus, and that our loss is his eternal,gain.
DIED—In Washington, Pa., on the Bth of
September, Mr. THOMAS BYBEE% in' the 74th
year of his age.
The deceased was born in Washington County,
carefully
trainedby pious parents, and was from
childittied - remarkable for upriglatness and in
tegrity of 'Character. In 1833 . be united with
the ..Presbyterian church of West Alexander,"
froM which time his' whole life was such as
recommended to others the religion he protease&
He, was a Man of, much Christian forbearance,
and uonstantliaimed to live at peace with all.
He was among the first to advocate the cause of
Temperance . in, the community where he lived,.
and also took an active part in the Missionary
and Bible cause from the commencement of their
operations among us. In. 1835 he had . a. severe
spell of sickness, from which it became neeesswry
to amputate his right limb. From thistle' never
entirely recovered, and consequently was un
fitted for active life. pwing to declining health,
in 1850 or 1851, he sold his farm near West
Alexandria, -- and moved to ; Washington, where he
spent" - the remainder of his?ife. , For many years
he was afflicted with a bronchial affection, which
finally settled 'on his lungs and terminated his
life. For. two years he was confined to, the
house„and much . of the time •to his room. His
sufferings at times were great, yet he was not
heard to murmur or iepine, but calmly awaited
his change, resigned to the will of his heavenly
Father. - •
He was a, dutiful son, a kind brother, and an
affectionate . father. He leaves a wife and eight
ohildren, with a large circle of friends, to mourn
bis loss. . A FaLIND.
DlEDSeptember2Oth, 1863, Mrs. - ELEANOR;
wife of Capt. Samuel Connor, of .Co.:H, 624 P.
V., in the 45th year of her age.
In the depth of Mill, Connor; her husband and
childrw have hist an affectionate wife and kind
and loving mother. Her sufferings were great
sad long Ottliuttedi but"berTtu with humility and
sweet: teeignation to the. will of. Ga. Though
vat times her pain from-the nature, ofahp..dhiettse
—inflammation of the knee and thigh-trorre—
was intense, yet no murmuring or impatience
was manifested. She felt that as her affliction
came from the hand of God, he knew What was
best for her, and would, with the suffering, give
grace to bear it to the honor of his name.
She has left a number of children, with a hus
band who has been in the army since July, 1861,
was wounded in the battle of Gettysburg, and
came home on furlough till his wound healed,
to spend some time with the wife of his youth
and partner of his joys and sorrows, in her de
clining condition. He went back, and had only
just reached the lines when he was summoned
home, and jusi - arrived in time to see his beloved
companion breathe her last.
Death is always a solemn and painful event ; but
it is doubly so in this case, from the fact that the
children are left motherless, and, by the fact of
war, fatherless for the time being. But for them
a mother's prayers went up, and God will hear
and' take care of them, according to his own
promise.
Mrs. C. was an humble and consistent member
or Bethel church; and one that loved the house
of God and the ordinances of religion. And
though we will miss her now in the family, the
church, and at the Lord's table, we doubt not
she has gone to that rest prepared in heaven for
all God's children. Let, then, her husband,
children, and many friends, whilst they mourn
one so loving and humble, follow that Saviour
in whom ehe rejoiced, and soon they will meet
her in heaven, where there will be sweet recog
nition, and no parting and sorrow any more for-
