in Canada, where they have been stationed.
An order from the chief military authorities
of the British army has been issued, forbid
ding these officers engaging in such services
on the plea that the men OF their regiments
may thereby be drawn away from their own
faith. Lord Cecil, and these other officers
have resigned their commissions. They could
not obey man in ceasing to tell others of Christ s
love to dying sinners The affair has caused
much comment wherever it has become known.
A Canadian paper tartly remarks:
= Other officers may devote themselves, as
We see them continually, TO women, horses,
dogs, billiards, or any other extravaganza OF
human folly, and it would be deemed huge
impertinence to interfere la Their amuSements:

Our Churches in Savannah

The Rev W. E. Hamilton, editor vt the
Southern Georgian, published at Balm idge,
recently visited Savannah, and on his return
gave his impressions respecting Things about
and in Savannah. From his interesting
article, we extract what he says respecting the
Presbyterian churches in that Furnishing
city:
IL was our privilege, not only TO worship in
the Independent Presbyterian Church on Sab
bath morning but also TO conduct that wor-
ship. This building meets our ideas Of house
OF worship as thoroughly as any we were ever
IN, and that, too, in every respect but one. IL
seems TO Us that the pulpit Is terribly out Of
keeping with the general appearance of the
whole structure. Were the magnificent organ
of thu church placed IN the rear Of the position
where the speaker now stands, the pulpit it
self lowered and somewhat undermined, 30 as
not 10 conceal 50 much of the speaker person.
the architectural effect-a thing by no means
TO be overlooked ~ Sanctuary-wOuld be
doubled in Its influence, and the power of the
man vi God over his audience quite improved.
But As this is matter about which we may
be thought boldly captiOus, we will turn TO
scene which may be of interest to the younger
reader Of the Georgian.
la the morning., We attended the Sabbath
school Of the First Presbyterian Church, aud
listened 10 some as delightful music As 1t Is
not often our lot to hear from children. So
perfect was the time, so thoroughly drilled
the voices, and so distinct the utterance, that
we could not but discern the presiding genius
of master teacher and musician IN the train
ing of scholars That presiding genius, We
learned, was the very able 5 W. Gleason,
Esq, who never tires IN the work Of instruct
ing, and whose abOrS have been abundant
And right well did this school show their APP
probation of these laborS on last Sabbath
morning At the close OF the exercises, the
pastor, Brother ID. II. Porter, in very APP
propriate address, presented token Of the
affection, Doth Of the pupils and teachers, aud
appreciation of tue services rendered, In the
delicate testimonial of d silver ladle, Inscribed
as follows: To 5. w. g., from S. S. Ist
PreSby teriaa Church, 1868 The present
was received with very delieately expressed
address on the part of Mr. g., when the school
closed with some as sweet airs a, ouc musical
literature affords.
