a Commcnda6le Norcmcnt-A number of
clergymen of Washington County, Pa, have is,
sueda call for convention, TO be held in the
United Presbyterian Church. at Hickory, on
the 24th of August. The call alludes to the
alarming increase of crime in that county; to
the duty of the ministry to aid in suppressing
sin; fayors the formation of society composed
administers of all denominations, to meet in
different places at regular intervals, and discuss
the evils of the present day. There is, from
the many criminal acts committed within the
territorial limits of that county for the past Eve
Ofsix years, evidently great necessity for refor-
mation-the establishment of some four or Eve
missionary stations at various localities through
out the barbarious region would be advisable.
Christian churches elsewhere should take up
collections for that purpose.
