The Rev. James G. Hammer. D. D..

The Rev. James G. Hammer, D. D., preach
ed on last Sabbath morning in the Second
Presbyterian Church, Or. Hoge's,) of this
city, and presented the cause of Education for
the benefactions of the congregation that
day having been devoted to this object. DR..
H. has been actively and efficiently engaged
for some months past in this important SER
vice, under the appointment of the Assem-
bly's Committee of Education. By their ad
vice he is now on his way to attend the meet
ing of the Synod of North Carolina, at Will
mington, on the 18th inst, and if the way be
clear, to remain for some time prosecuting his
agency in that State.
1t should be known that this is a labor of
love on the part of DR.. Hamner-without any
charge to the Church beyond his travelling
expenses. The exigency is an extraordinary
one, and this fact taken in connection with the
lamentable neglect in so many churches to do
any thing to meet it, renders some extraordi
nary agency for the time being unavoidable.

Systematic Giving.-The scheme adopted
by the Presbytery of Concord is published en-
tire Can our religious papers be more use
fully employed than in pressing upon the
hearts of the people the great duty of giving
to the utmost of their means? Secure this,
and by the blessing of God our Church will
go forward; if generally neglected, it must
sink
And how can we publish anything more eff.
feetual than information bearing upon this
great duty? A few weeks ago a full notice
was given in this paper of systematic arrange
ments adopted by the Presbytery of Montgom-
cry for managing their affairs. Immediately
arrested the attention of brother in Missouri
"a pastor whose systematic efforts in his own
congregation, as well as public enterprise are not
surpassed any where in the Church. He wrote
to obtain a copy of the little manual published
by the PreSbytery. We here repeat the wish,
recently expressed, that a copy of that excel
lent little affair could be put into the hands

FOR THE CENTRAL PRESBYTERIAN.
Presbyterian Southern Female Educational
Society.

The continued misfortunes of the Southern
people, have caused other suffering and dis
tress almost as great as the privation OF the
necessaries of life.
The children are growing up without educa-
ton, their parents being.too poor to support
teachers in their various neighborhoods. Ihis
fact has become generally known, and many
Societies and Christian congregations are en-
deavoring to supply this great deficiency TO
their Southern friends.
We, as Presbyterians, desiring to place SIM
liar advantages within the reach OF our peo-
pie, the ladies of the Presbyterian Churches
of this city have formed Society, the object
of which is to assist schools already in oper-
alton, and to establish others in districts where
there are none.
By this means, children now unable to re-
ceive instruction will find admittance into ex-
ceent schools near their homes; while at the
same time, many ladies perfectly competent
to take charge of these schools will be grateful
for the opportunity thus offered them.
The ladies feel greatly encouraged, as since
the organization in May, 1868, they have
placed eighty eight girls under tuition.
With this simple statement of the working
and design of the Society, the Managers con-
fidently appeal to their Presbyterian brethren
for liberal contributions, which may be sent to
any of the Officers or Managers.

CENTRAL RESBYT ERIAN

ecclesiastical organization in Virginia, from
that with which DR.. Moore was connected.
Twenty years ago he, Or. r. had left an en-
deared congregation that he might come to
mider climate for the same reason that now
induces DR.. Moore to leave us. When he
came to Richmond to take charge Of the United
Presbyterian Church he, Or. NJ was the
first to extend the hand of Christian fellow.
ship and invite him to take part in the COM
munion service at his church. He had never
forgotten the circumstance or the impression
it had made upon him. Though most of the
time since they had worked in separate eccle-
siastical connections their relations had always
been those of kindness. They both labored for
the union of the two different Churches, and
were permitted to hail its consummation with
delight. and had lived together ever since as
brethren. He now parted with him believing
it was the will of the Lord If so, the pain
of sundering ties so tender would be more
than compensated-for the blessing of God
would be upon it.
Beverly r. Wexford, ruling elder from the
First Presbyterian Church, Richmond, remark
ed that he represented the people who were
SO vitality interested in this matter. 1t was a
hard matter for him, in their name, to acqui-
esce in this dissolution of pastoral relations
Had their wishes alone been consulted, this
thing would never have been done; but it
seemed an act of Providence. The duty, how
ever sad, must needs be performed. Dr. Moore
can never find people who will appreciate
him more highly, and in his new field he will
carry with him our affections and our prayers.
We gratefully accept the sympathies of the
Presbytery, and trust that God will soon send
us man after His own heart who shall break
unto us the bread Of life.
The Moderator REV. Mr. Miller) who was
classmate of DR., Moore's in the Theological
Seminary at Princeton, said he would refrain
from many things he would like to express in
this parting from beloved friend. As the
Moderator, he would respond warmly to all
DR.. Moore's expressions of love for this Pres
bytery. He heartily endorsed all the senti
ments of confidence, sympathy and affection
which had been uttered, and remarked that
the Presbyterians of Petersburg felt much so,
licitude at the prospect Of DR.. Moore's depar.
ture from Virginia.
The minute offered by DR.. Hcge having
been adopted, DR.. Baird was appointed to
preach to the congregation and declare the
pulpit vacant.
A copy of the minute was ordered to be sent
to DIR. Moore, and another transmitted to the
Presbytery of Nashville.
The meeting closed with prayer by the Rev.
DR.. Read, who earnestly invoked the Lord s
blessing upon DIR. Moore and the people he
was about to leave.

Solemn Facts for the Churches to Ponder.

I. Just one year ago our Assembly's Com
mittee on Education had Is young brethren
receiving aid, upon the recommendation of
their respective PreSbyteries.
=. When the Assembly met last May, they
had 43.
3. Now they have 90.
4. Rev. DR.. Baird, our Secretary, told the
last Assembly that he had knowledge of y
candidates for the Ministry in our churches,
and was satisfied there were 100 whose
hearts desire was to preach the Gospel.
5. He now knows of les candidates, and is
satisfied there are zoe who are longing to pre-
pare for this holy work.
What is the voice Of these wonderful facts?
We shall try to answer that question next
week.

by confding brethren in the Presbytery and
Synod. The field was a magnificent one he
believed, in view of all the reasons given,
especially in reference to the prospect of i'm
proved health, that the voice of Gods provi-
dence clearly pointed DR.. Moore's way to it
that he had eminent fitness for it, and though
on all personal accounts it was painful for his
congregation. for the Presbytery, and most
painful to himself to make this separation,
yet that it was one approved of God, and his
blessing would assuredly rest upon it.
Rev. John S. Watt offered few remarks
but from his position we were unable to re.
port them. They were intended to present
the subject of Dr. Moore's removal in its most
encouraging and cheerful aspect.
Rev. DIR. Bard dwelt upon the high esti-
mate he had formed of the field of labor to
which Dr. Moore had been called. There was
not within the bounds of our whole Church
one offering the prospect Of superior useful
ness. The headquarters of the Cumberland
Presbyterians, of the Southern Methodists,
of the Baptists, and till recently of the Epis-
copalians, were in Nashville. Our Church
ought to have the place filed by one of her
best men. The edifce is about as large as
that of Dr. Palmer's in New Orleans, its men,
bership not far from being as large, and it was
fully equal in its pecuniary strength. 1t was
remarkable too that the Presbytery of Nash.

brethren earnest and devoted to their work,
who would rejoice in the counsel and strength
given by an older minister. He knew they
we're delightful at the prospect of having DIR.
Moore among them, and he knew no one bet
ter fitted for the place.
Rev. DR.. Read said it might be proper for
him to offer few remarks as one Of those in
