The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1868-12-23
For THE CENTRAL PRESBYTERIAN.
To the Churches of E. Hanover Presbytery

Dear Brethren, Presbyterys Execu-
tive Committee of Domestic Missions would
most respectfully invite your attention to GER
tain facts pertaining to this great interest, in
order that you may give intelligently and libe-
rally, at the next annual collection for this
object.
You are aware that our Presbytery has
adopted the Assembly's plan of Sustentation,
and is pledged to hearty cooperation with it.
In numbers and perhaps in wealth, ours is one
of the strongest Presbyteries in connection
with the Assembly. And yet, we regret to
say that, during the present year, we have
drawn from the general treasury over third
more than what we contributed to it.
One of the great objects of this system is
that the strong may support the weak. But,
so far, we have afforded no aid to others, and
we have hindered rather than helped the great
plan of Sustentatlon.
Our average contribution this year. for this
purpose, is only about fifty cents for each COM
municant in the Presbytery. And still We
have promised to sustain number of our
feeble churches, in the support Of eight mis-.
sionaries; and relying upon your iberality,

Shall It Be Sold

A private letter from the Rex. j. Newtou
Craig, of the Presbytery of Bethel, South
Carolina, presents the critical condition of the
Yorkville Female College in point of view
which ought to be generally known. He says:
Our Presbytery undertook, before the war,
to establish sound Female School-bought
grounds, built the YorkUMe Female College,
paid out $40 or $l2 000-had good school,
but owed about "a, 000 which was secured by
mortgage on the building, when the war began.
The school is again in operation, Mrs. Thorn
well, widow of Rev. DR.. Thornwell, being in
charge of the boarding department. and her
son-in-law, President of tho College. The
debt and interest are over 81, 500 The credi-
tors will make large deduction if we can pay
soon; otherwise they will sell, and the Roman
Catholics will probably buy it. Our Presby-
terry had Sherman through considerable part
of it-a partial drought in lS65-a terrible
drought in 1866, with low price Tor cotton
not paying expenses in 1867. Most Of the
money, however will be raised within our own
bounds; but some 81 200 or 81, 500 must come
from abroad, or our College will pass into other
hands, our money, already paid be lost, and
our only chance for such school gone, for
perhaps the next twenty years [ was appoint,
ed travelling agent, to ask friends to give US
the amount needed. l prefer to beg by Cir
cular letter.
If word of exhortation from us could reach
all the good Presbyterians in that Presbytery,
it would be to hold fast to that Female school.
1t must not be brought under the hammer
Under a principal so able and energetic as
brother Anderson, to say nothing of others

RICHMOND BOOKSTORES.

Having no talent Oh taste for writing an elab-
crate description of the fine things to be found
in book stores, especially about the time of
Christmas, we shall endeavor to make our
speech in few plain words of commentator
of such as we are indebted to for sending us,
from time to time, interesting books which
they keep for sale, and who are in turn in
debted to the Central Presbyterian for editorial
criticisms and notices, given with an honest
conscience, and without fear favor, or affec
ton. ="
Whoever will step into the establishment of
A. II. Christian d; Co., as he comes down
Main Street, will be gratifed to see how snug
ly every thing is fixed, and if among the gold
pens, writing desks, and books in sumptuous
binding, he finds nothing to suit his taste for a
holiday present, he must be hard to please.
In that event Tor without it) let him calm,
few doors below, at the rooms of the Pres
byterian Publication House, where will be
found large and rich selection of the best re.
ligious books of the day, suited for the young,
and many suited for all ages, and at prices
which ought to be satisfactory to light purses.
Mr. Howard can, at the same time, supply him
with stationery, juvenile illustrated books from
the l&D06t this country and England, and
with other needful things too tedious to men
tiOu.
Lower down the street, the well known house
of =" Woodhouse d: Parham," opens fine as
sortment of such excellent books, stationery,
and Christmas literature, as present choice
variety.
To tie houses of Biagood d; Riley, Ran
dolph d English, Stark Dc Ryland, we have
been occasionally indebted for volumes which
have received the usual newspaper notices.
These, with other establishments in Rich
mond, have kept their way through all the
prostration of trade, prostration always bear
ing most heavily upon every thing in the way
of literature. Let it be hoped that brighter
day may soon dawn upon them all, and that
the bookstores of this city may long flourish
and become more and more useful in diffusing
a healthful literature through the country.
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1868-12-23

is to be subjected to the severe censure
of his Bishop.
Now, whenever Church makes the
mere mode of ordination the signal OF
such vast separation between itself and
others, what is the inevitable conse-
quence? 1t declares tc the world that
we are in state of dreadful schism.-
To convert US from the error of our
ways, becomes therefore a duty
Hence, while the position of the Presby-
terrain Church towards other evangelical
churches leaves no room for cultivating
proselyting spirit, the position of the
Episcopal Church is such that prose-
lyting spirit is its logical result, its nat
ural outgrowth. If Presbyterian prose
lyters are to be found, We utterly con-
denim them, and the more because it is
in spite of all the charitable principles
of their Church. If proselyters are found
among Eplscopallans, we condemn them
also, but not without a certain allowance
and compassion to which they are emit
tied from the fact that their Church,
having forsaken the happy ground of its
first Reformers, has chosen path that
leads to precisely such consequences.
Other and more important points will
be taken up next week. And while the
purpose is entertained to express our
views with the freedom and plainness
claimed by the subject, as well as by
Christian candor, it is hoped that no
wrong or harsh word will find place
in our columns. There is no petition in
the Litany of the Episcopal Chur h in
which all true Christians should more
heartily unite than that which says
From all blindness of heart; from
pride, and hypocrisy; from envy, hatred,
and malice, and all uncharitablene ss,
Good Lord, deliver u.s..

How Many Will Help?

A pastor in Virginia, writing upon other
matters, adds the following postscript:
81 see that little girl proposes in your
columns, that the children shall try to raise
some money for Foreign Missions. There is
one, at least, in my flock who is of the same
mind Little -, who is about nine or ten
years of age, made up some little trifes of va
rious kinds, held little fair, and to day gave
me $l.2O as her subscription for the above
named cause. Her father gave me check at
the same time for SIS.
Happy are they who from the heart give
their fifteen dollars, but if we may compare
one good thing to another, the best work the
Church can now engage in for ensuring large
income to meet its future wants, is to engage
the hearts and hands of the children. Let
them be early taught to pray for the heather
and the building ur of the kingdom of Christ
everywhere, and to work with their hands so
as to make something in a good and honest
way to give for this holy purpose. How many
other little children are there who are willing
to follow these examples and to help in this
work? We shall be glad to hear from them

Having no knowledge of Dr. Cowles, but a

to doubt whether any good thing could come
out of it. But we must own to decided liking
for this commentary. In l2mo. volume of

In view of these things, we shall hope for a
large increase in your contributions. An aver
