NORTH FORK, G. N, January 9th, 1877


[ must confess that have been slow to write
[ have been wishing for some time to write, but
thought it perhaps not really necessary, having
nothing Of much interest to communicate.
My labors among the Greeks are about the same
as when | wrote last; and are yet encouraging, al
though there are not many conversions. Much in.
terest is manifested among my congregations -
Some are hungering and thirsting after the righte-
business of Christ, and delight to hear the preached
gospel. Two have been added to our little flock
since [ wrote you last, and goodly number are in
curing the way to Zion; and hope it will not be
long before they will see their way clear to unite
themselves to the Church of Christ
My labors here have been very much hindered
the past year on account of the distracted and un
settled state OF the country caused by spirit OF
opposition to the present form or system of the
Muskokee Government; causing division in and
among the people, and thus creating the existence
of prejudice which greatly weakens the Christian
influence. The rebelous party is composed of the
most ignorant, and almost all who are opposed to
Christianity in short, it is the ignorant against
the more enlightened and civilized. But it is to
be hoped that these difficulties will subside in a
short time [ think they are already seeing their
error, and many are coming back under the new
constitutional government.
We are still without suitable house for public

Circular.

TO THE CHURCHES WITHIN THE BOUNDS OF THE
SYNOD OF MEMPHIS:
Dear Brethren, The Committee appointed by
the Synod of Memphis at its last meeting and
charged with the duty of securing the services of
an evangelist to labor within its bounds have en-
ployed the Rev. II. Q. Brown, formerly Of Claren-
don Ark, and placed him in the field. He has
commenced his work in the Presbytery of Western
District and will proceed regularly forward until
the whole Synod is visited He will labor, so far
as possible, under the advice and direction of the
Committees Of Missions in the different Presbyte
res, and it is confidently hoped that he will be able
to occupy all important missionary points within
the bounds of Synod at least once before the next
meeting. Communications relative to his work
may be addressed either to the Charmen of Com
mittees of Missions in the different Presbyteries,
or to the Chairman of the Synod's Committees at
Memphis.
AS there will be heavy expense connected with
the purchase of an outfit for this missionary work,
it is hoped that the pastors and sessions of all our
churches will take immediate action to raise the
amount proposed by the Synod at its last meeting,
viz, $1,000. As there are little more than five
thousand church members, an average of forty
cents per member will secure the amount needed !;
and we hope that by all the churches this will be
considered the minimum rate Of contribution.
The evangelist whom we have employed is a man
of faith and prayer-a man of energy and self
sacrifice Let us see that he does not fail for want
of the prayers, sympathies, and contributions OF
the churches L. ID. WuHERsPo0N,

Your last to me reached me just as we were leaving
for this place, and really gave me some uneasiness,
as it indicated doubt about the proprety If my
movement | will mention one or two things now
which decided me to come here.
The ''centrdp' place in the Nation would be
either Tahlequah or Gibson. AT neither of these
places, in my opinion, will our Presbyterianism
prosper. There is more difference of opinion in
regard to North and South in religion than had
thought. Those whom the time of trouble were in
the South are now mostly settled south of Arkan.
sas River, and west of Grand River. South of Ar
kansas the Methodists are now operating mainly
through native preachers. OF all the settlements
west of Grand River. this has the best Presbyte-
rian element, in my opinion and that moved me
to come here, against my natural inclination. ex.
pect no ease. | am afraid hope-there is none

FOREIGN ITEMS.

Royal Duel in spain-On the 18th of March,
duel was fought by Prince Henri Du Bourbon
and Duke De Montpensier, seven miles from the
walls of Madrid. The first fire at ten PAGES, was
without effect. They then advanced to seven
PAGES. Prince Henri fired and missed, the Duke,
returning the fire, shot his adversary through the
head. The latter fell and in few minutes ex-
PRED. As the Prince was poor, the Duke offers
to provide for the widow and children. The quar-
rel was caused by the harsh letter against the
Duke which the Prince addressed to Montpensier.
Henri was brother of the consort of ex Queen Is
abella and consin to the Duchess Of Montpensier.
Mr.. Sturgeon, besides editing his S,oord and
Tro,oel, aud preaching as well as experimenting
his College and the Orphan Homes, is writing a
new Commentary on the Psalms, which, as Judged
by competent persons, and as far as it has gone is
exceedingly good.
