It is stated that the chair of Meutal and Moral Philosophy in the University ,

of Texas has been offered'to the Rev. Dr. ;

R. L. Dabney, of Union Seminary. The 1

Texas University could not, in our opinion, get a better man to fill the chair of Men- tal and Moral Philosophy in that institu- tion ; but we presume that Dr. Dabney would hardly entertain the idea of giving up his position in the Seminary To fill a

chair of Mental and Moral Philosophy anywhere. We are quite sure that it would meet with an earnest protest from the Directors, and from other quarters.

Those interested in the subject will please read sections 3 and 6 of Chapter iXI\ of the Old Book of Church Order in connection with our article on " Who may be Ordained or Licensea.” Section 0 is supplementary to section 3. Section 3 “recommends” a college "diploma”: section 6 adds that, except in extraor- dinary cases, it is also " recommended’’ that the candidate for licensure "shall have studied divinity at least two years under some approved divine or professor 01 theology.’’

It is formally announced that the Rev. Dr. Mcllwaine accepts the presidency of Hampden Sidney College, which involves, of course, his resignation as Secretary of the Committee of Home Missions. He will be a great loss to the department of Home Missions, and Hampden Sidney has secured a capital man to manage her interests.

—The Salvation Army in Exeter IIall.—Among the May meetings this year in London are counted some enthusiastic meetings of the Salvation Army in Exeter Hall. The net proceeds of these meetings are said to have amounted to $50,000. " General” Booth im- proved the opportunity of replying to some criticisms of the Salvation Army by the Bishop of Oxford and other prelates. The Bishop of Oxford had denounced the meeting of the Army as having an immoral tendency, and the Bishop flf Iff*r».fArH Kail annrnund fkni -1 A_a 1_w

Booth said he had written to the Bishop of Ox ford for the grounds on which his statement was based, and had received reply that the names of the informers could not be duclosed. but further inquiry would be made and the statement would be modified if injustice bad been done. Mr. Booth said if the bishops did not substantiate or withdraw their charges, he would ask the Army to send a memorial to the Queen—a mem-

ory which would have a million and a half of sigifttures—praying Her Majesty, who was the head of the Church, to have justice done to them In so doing he believed they would have the support of the Primate. The Christian World, which is somewhat prejudiced against the Army, says of the meetings :

" Testimonies, as upon similar occasions, form ed a large part of the proceedings. The famous old Yorkshire woman, Jane Johnson, who has been, it is said, 2(40 times in prison for drunken- ness, and who, it was lately announced, relaps- ed, but has, wo presume, been converted afresh, was of course, trotted out,' if we may use that colloquial expression. 'Irish Kitty’ also was a

prominent character, as was * Yorky,’ a cham pion light weight boxer, who sang and danced on the platform, and dec-laied that he had com- mitted almost every imaginable crime. Two -other converted boxers, a couple of publicans from Luton, who had given up the drink traffic and smiled their beer in the streets, and " Hal- lelujah Maggie,'of Camberwell, also testified to the good they had received from the Army. The statistics furnished as to the progress of the Salvationists were also not without interest. The Army now, it was stated, numbered, 491 corps, with 1,500,000 members, whilst the in- come amounted to £121,000. The rental expenses were £21,000, and the value of the proporty ac quired £150,800, but the mortgages amount to £54,000. The " General" estimates that £14, ttf>0 will be wanted for the coming year, but of that, as we have said, about £10,WOO, including several donations of £1,000 each, was subscribed before the day's proceedings, which wore wound up with a triumphant march through the Strand and Fleet Street."

—The Roman Catholics are soon to be- gin the erection of a church in New York city for colored people. The late Father Farrell left ▼6,000 in 8 per cent Alabama bonds for the pur- pose of aiding in the erecting or purchase of a Catholic church for them.

Transylvania Presbytery has adopted the following resolution: That Evangelists laboring within our bounds are instructed not to effect the organization of churches in regions contiguous to other churches without the advice of Presbytery.

Lewisburg, West Va.—The pastor of this church, Rev. J. W. Rosebro, has been greatly encouraged and blessed since he took charge of it last summer. As the result of the late ex- tensive revival forty were added to the church on Sunday, bth inst., and others will unite soon.

Grace Street Church, Richmond, Va At a congregational meeting held last Wednes- day night Rev. Thomas Drew, of Chase City, Va., was unanimously elected associate pastor of this church. Rev. Dr. C. H Read, who ha« been the pastor of the church tor years, and whose labors have been abundantly blessed, is not able to do the full amount of preaching and pastoral work needed by the church, and hence the election of an associate. The congregation would under no circumstances part with the be- loved pastor who has so long and faithfully ministered to them.

Messrs. B. C. Gray, P. Howard, and Dr. T. H. Moore were appointed commissioners to prosecute the call.

For nearly thirty years he has been a faithful and loving watchman on the walls of Zion, and has greatly endeared himself, not only to the members of this church, but to our whole community. Truly can it be said of him that he has obeyed the divine command, " Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep' with them that weep."

Resolved, That we do not accept his jesigna lion but grant him leave of absence as long as his health may require it, and we will most earn- estly pray that our Divine Master, if it be his will, may speedily restore him to health and strength.

Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be sent to Mr. Wailes and to the Cantral Pretbyte rion-' T. S. Witherow, Chairman.

o. A. BfRcnt, Secretary. Selma, Ala.—Good news from the churches

is always acceptable, and I am glad to report that in several of our city churches we have had good meetings, with many hopeful conver- sions. The Baptist church first held a meeting, where I heard several capital sermons from Rev. Mr. Eager, of Mobile, formerly of Lexing ton, Va. He is one of the finest preachers I ever heard. Then the Methodists held a meet- ing-for a month, and their excellent pastor, Dr A. 8. Andrews, tells me the church was much revived, and many added to the church. In the meantime, after our Presbytery adjourned at my church, Rev. W. H Richardson of Union- town, commenced a meeting at the Alabama Street church, of which the excellent brother 3owan is pastor. They were much revived, and ire still receiving members to the church.

For two weeks we kept up services twice a

't our a tri n W. Hooper. Dedication o.f ,r Church

of Sulphur Spn 1 On Sabbath, May 6th, this beautii .mrcb. capable of seating comfortably fc. .rsors, and costing altogether about $1,600. as dedicated. The services, conducted by Re- W. N. Dickey, evan-

gelist of the Presbytery of Parisc, onsisted. of reading selections of Scripture, reading an item- ised statement of the work, singing a doxology. offering a dedicatory prayer, and preaching a sermon from the texts Josh, i: 9, and Sam. vii: 12.

This little band, after long waiting and many reverses, has now a good house, well located.

, neatly finished, comfortably seated, and all free from debt. The Presbyterian church, though it has not many members, is encouraged by its 8ucce?8 and has the confidence of the communi- ty, as is shown by the fact that much of the funds needed to build the house was cheerfully contributed by membere of other churches and by persons not members of any church. With grateful hearts for the blessings received, and

r faith in tbe promises of God, the felt want of the people now is the stated services of the sanctua- ry. They have no preaching except as the evangelist can occasionally visit them. They, with the Pleasant Valley church (now comple^ ■ ting its building) and Greenville, can well sup- port a minister, and we have good hope that their hearts will soon be gladened by his com ing. Surely a glorious future lies out before us in this smiling land. W N D

The Rev. Dr. J. Leighton Wilson, Secretary of the. Prosbyterian Foreign Mission Committee, the Rev. M Tt China Mission, who has just returned to this country after the death of his wife, and the Rev. Mr. Lane, of the South American Mission, are expected to be present at the Presbyterian church on next Sunday morning [last Sunday] and the meeting at that hour will be devoted to Missions. At night Dr. Wilson will preach at the University the last of the series of sermons, on Protestant Missions in Pagan and Moham- medan Lands as Factor in Modern Civilization.”

Charlottesville Jeffersonian. Liberty Church, Mo.—On Sunday night,

the 29th ult., we closed a very interesting and profitable meeting, which had been in progress in our church for four weeks. At the beginning, Dr. Boude, of Kansas City, preached for us seve- ral nights, and. after he left, Dr. J. W. Hoyte, of Nashville, Penn., came and preached for us

day and night. The interest in the church from the beginning was marked, and the attendance large and well sustained to the close.

The preaching was with unusual power and unction, and the people gave earnest heed to the words spoken. The result is, the church is greatly revived, and eighteen have been added* to our number, while yet others are expected to follow.—St. Louis Presbyterian.

Rev. J. M. Scott, of Waverly, Mo., has removed to Kentucky. Wo sincerely regret to learn of this loss to our Synod and to us per sonally. Mr. Scott’s adddress, until further notice, will be Myers, Nicholas county Ky

Washington, Macon County, Ky._ Lev. E. E. Ervin writes : Our meeting of two weeks’ continuance closed last night. Part of the time Rev. Maurice Waller, of the Northern Church, was with us. and Rev. S. H. Chester, of North ( arolina, both of whom shared in the work, Mr. Chester preached several times. The burden of the work rested upon Dr. Guerrant, the Synodical Evangelist, whose preaching attracted such audiences as our house has not known for

Christian Observer. Sherman, Texas.—Sine the first of April

twenty-two have been added to the Presbyte- rian church in Sherman. Fourteen of these were by profession and eight by letter. Rev. L. B. Chaney spent several days with us, and gave us some excellent sermons. Some of the College students are among those who professed religion. Others are concerned.— Texas Presbyterian.

Northern Presbyterian. W'hat the Northern Presbyterians are

Doing for the Colored People.-*-The Rev. 8. R. Wishard writes in the Herald and Preshy- Cr To-day we have five institutions of learn ing among the Treedmen, whose character and work will compare favorably with the same grade of institutions in the North. Indeed, in some respects there is a refreshing superiority in these institutions among the Freedmen. The large predominance of biblical teaching, the prevalent spirit of earnest religious inquiry, and the fruitage of this work, are the most hopeful augury for the future of the colored people Here is a single fact concerning Biddle Univer- sity, at Charlotte, N. C. " Of the 104 student* reported for the past year, 127 (about three- fourths) are professors of religion, and 06 of this number (nearly one-half of the professors of re- ligion, and one-third of the whole number of students) are studying for the gospel ministry.' There is, perhaps, not another college in the land, unless it be Park College, Missouri, that has such a record.

Scotia Seminary, in North Carolina, " report- 202 pupils,” of whom more than half are profes-

^ sors of religion.

~~ ~ ^.y j-vj.

The Fairfield Institute, at Winnsboro, S. C.> “report-405 pupils enrolled, 125 of them pro- fessors of religion, of whom 32 are studying for the gospel ministry. The other two institutions present facts equally hopeful. The whole num- ber of students who are receiving a thorough training in these institutions, was last year 1,- 641. No one can fail to see the value of such a work among the Freedmen. Yes, "the light shines, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes." Ktghty-seven of these young men are preparing to preach the gospel in the Presbyterian Church, among their brethren in the South. Add to this the fact that we have 56 colored men regu- larly educated and ordained to the work of the ministry, with 168 churches and a membership of 12,456 souls. What a grand beginning is this among the six millions and more of Freed- men.

How to Reach the Masses, was the subject of an excellent sermon by Dr. Leftwich, of the First Presbyterian church of Baltimore, last Sabbath. There must be an increased min- istry. There are many wise and good men to- day, who, acknowledging the power of a learned ministry, do not regard it as essential to success- ful ministerial work—it is an acknowledged fact that some of the most accomplished minis- terial scholars are not successful preachers, while men of moderate scholarship, with an aptness to teach and preach, are, as is notably thocaseof Mr. Moody.—Baltimore Presbyterian.

Even if they do close the year with something of a debt, the two great missionary Boards of the Presbyterian Church have re- ceived a splendid support during the year from their constituency. The receipts of the Board of Home Missions were over $500,000 (includ- ing sustentation), and of the Board of Foreign Missions over $650,000, the largest amount ever received through the ordinary channels by any Home or Foreign Missionary Society in the country. The expenses of the Foreign Board were unusually large, owing to the unprece- dented number of young men sent out as mis- sionaries last year, and will probably be less this year. The debt of the Home Board will be $40,000 and of the Foreign Board perhaps half that sum.—Independent.

The Presbyterian Banner (Pittsburgh) takes the ground that the Confession of Faith cannot be altered in the Northern Church because at the reunion of the Old and New School branches the following was adopted as the basis of union

The Confession of Faith shall continue to be sincerely received and adopted as containing the system of doctrine taught in the Holy Scrip- tures. On this the Herald and Presbyter com ments in the following iroaical strain :

Beware!—The press is often called a senti- nel on the watch-tower, whose duty it is' to give warning, and that is what we are. From^our elevated standpoint we notice signs of danger, and we call upon all concerned to watch ! We notice that the Presbyteries of the Southern Church are voting to drop from the Constitution the clause forbidding marriage with a deceased wife 8 Bister. If a majority of the Presbyteries so vote, and the clause shall be left out, then re- union with the South is hopeless, for the reason that the Constitutions North and South will no longer be the same, and that of the North can- not be changed to suit the Southern, because, as the\ Banner holds, the union of the Old and New School made qur standards immutable, if not infallible. It quotes in'support of this view the basis of union, viz: “The Confession of* 1 aith shall continue to be sincerely received and adopted as containing the system of doc- trine taught in the Holy Scriptures.” If this is sound doctrine, then the North and South can- noL-unite on the standards unless the South re- tains the “deceased wife's sister” clause, inas- much as the North has signed away its right to exclude it or make any change. Those in the Houth who wants union with the North had better act with their eyes open. If, however the Banner is wrong, there is no need of alarm!

A benevolent deed, which is of a novel character in the Presbyterian Church, has just been announced. Dr. Alexander M. Bruen, of New York city, a member of a family whose name has long been connected with the progress of Presbyterianism, has offered to the Presby- terian Board of Relief his handsome country- seat at Perth Amboy, N. J., known as

" Bruen House,” as a permanent Home for disabled ministers and for their widows and children. It .o « ouu3l»uu», structure oi stone and brick, one hundred and twenty feet front by forty deep, with three stories and a basement, containing eighty rooms, on high gronnd, commanding a view of Raritan Bay and the Atlantic Ocean in the distance. There are eleven and a half acres of ground, with fine old shade trees surrounding it on every side. A committee, consisting of William G. Moorhead, Esq., Rev. J. H. Mason Knox, D. D., and A. Charles Barclay, Esq., has been appointed to make arrangements for the occupancy of the property by the 1st of June, and to make application to the churches for funds to procure tho necessary furniture and to keep the institution in operation. The proper- ty is valued at between $25,000 and $30,000.

Presbyterian. The Presbytery of Trinity, one of our

Texas Presbyteries, mot in the town of Cisco, where it found a now church nearly completed and paid for, with a growing congregation. Steps were taken by the Presbytery to establish a Presbyterian College in the town of Breckin- ridge; $10,000 were pledged by the citizens, provided as much more would be raised to swell the amount to $20,000. Call it an Academy, brethren, and make it a good one.

The Seoond Presbyterian church. Kansas City, Mo., has now three Habbath •Schools under its care, all prosperous and flourishing the regular school of the church, a

Thus far 232 persons have been gathered into the Methodist, Baptist, and Presbyterian churches of Brockport, N. Y., as the result of , the recent extensive work of grace in that place. | At the April communion Rev. David R. Eddy, of the Presbyterian Church, had the pleasure of 1

A society has boon formed under the direction of M. htocker for the dissemination of religious truth among the non-churchgoing population, and during the course of last year 15,000 sermons were distributed, most of them apparently being purchased at a p/enntny (less than half-a-farth- ing) each. I olice and postmen, tramway em- ploy ees, firemen, all receive copies regularly and w some cases they are read aloud by the men to one another when off duty. Le Chretien iStlge gives the following sta'istics of Mr. Mc- Alls work in France:—In Paris there are thirty-one Gospel Halls open in various parts of the city and suburbs. A similar work has been founded in twenty-eight towns of France with forty nine Evangelistic Halls, seating al- together 13,_00 persons. The number of meet- ings held last year was 10,500, at which 716 000 Dereons were present. The expenses during 1882 amounted to £11,520.-Belfast IttfncM.
