Members expecting to attend the coming meet
ing of Roanoke PreSbytery, at Ridgeway, Henry
county, on the 23d of August, who live on the line
of the railroad, or south of it, and who would pre-
fer to take the cars to Readsville twenty miles be-
yond Danville, there to meet wagons sent from
Henry to convey them to Ridgeway, twenty-four
miles distant, will please be particular to inform
the undersigned Immediately Of their purpose. 1t
would be exceedingly unreasonable and unkind to
put the good people of Henry to the trouble Of
sending their wagons so far unnecessarily L have,
therefore, engaged to let them know beforehand
how many will need conveyance; and provision
roW be made TOR only such as ask TO be included an
the programme, from whom l must hear, at the
latest, by Monday, the 18th Of August.
The morning train reaches ReadsVille about
noon, and the evening train about midnight. Men,
bers must go on Tuesday in order to meet the
wagons, which will leave Readsville by day dawn
or earlier, Wednesday morning. A brief notice
will be sent to the Central to appear the week
previous, or earlier, in regard to accommodations
to be had at Readsville for any who may prefer to
reach there at noon on Tuesday.
In order to secure the benefit Of return ytree
those who do not use standing halffare passes
should be careful, on going, to obtain from the
agent where they take the cars, certif safe that
full fare has been paid.
The Presbytery having resolved to meet IN Hen
ry, in order to strengthen the hands and cheer the
heart of brother Anderson, and to learn on the
ground the condition and wants of that part of our
field, it is to be hoped that difficulties will be disre
gard d, in order to secure full meeting. Diff
cultiesl We rather anticipate some peculiar and
extraordinary enjoyment in the genial and lively
companionship OF wagon load or two of Presby

Dedication at New Greek, Mineral County,
West Virginia.

On the 25rd instant, the new Presbyterian
church here was dedicated to the service of AL
mighty God. This enterprise was commenced by
Rev. Edward Martin, the former minister, who
has recently removed to st. Charles, Mo. At the
time brother Martin began his labors among this
people, which was Immediately after the war; there
were but three members, and no house in which to
Worship for their holy and their beautiful house.
where their fathers praised God, had been burnt
with fire. ;" But God greatly blessed the labors
of His servant, and last Sabbath witnessed the con-
summation of an enterprise which required great
labor, patience, energy, and self-denia on the part
of few Of his dear people.
Verify, God is covenant God. Our God is a
faithful God To his name be all the praise The
church is very neat one, and was built at cost of
three thousand, two hundred and twenty-five dol
lars.
From the iberality displayed previous to, and on
the day of dedication, we may hope that the small
amount still due will be soon paid.
Rev. j. A. Scott preached noble sermon to a
large and deeply interested congregation from Eph
2 chap, 20, 81: "And are built upon the founda-
ton of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ
himself being the chief cornerstone; in whom all
the building fifty framed together grOweth unto a
holy temple in the Lord. G.

No Priests.

The Protestant Ctwchn,an says that the next
General Convention of the Episcopal Church will
be asked by alarge body of Clergy and Laity, that
the word Priest" wherever it occurs in the
Prayer book, be understood as equivalentto Pres
byter." Among other reasons offered, are the
following:
Once more, we ask the Church to clear her
Prayer book from the opprobrium of seeming to
teach the doctrine of human priesthood, because a
human priesthood is the bane of every land where
it exists in overwhelming numbers and influence
Ii is the great obstacle to the enlightenment of ma
TONS 1t is the bitter foe of all true progress 1t
holds the minds of men and women in fearful bond
age. 1t has been too often fountain of corrup-
ton in morals 1t is the quick sighted and relent-
less opponent ofevery measure of reform. Witness
its work in Bavaria to day; aymen by thousands
gather around the standard of REFORM the priest
hood almost to man are exertng all their tremen
dous power to stamp out the kindling fire.
We would let the General Convention know that
on this subject there is profound and Geep.seated
feeling in the hearts of thousands of our faithful
Church people. We ask, that our Church shall
be cleared from any completely with this great con
spiracy against religious liberty and the pure faith
of the gospel-such as is the scheme of human
priesthood intervening between the sinner and his

testants. Their employees, from the highest
teacher down to the washer-woman and chamber
maid, are nuns, who work for the church for their
UictuatS and clothes. The church is bound to take
care OF them if they get sick or unable to take care
OF themselves, and they, in return, give their whole
energies to the church, for bare subsistence of
the plainest and cheapest quality. The Protestant
teacher must give his employees high ,oages, from
his assistant teacher down to his cook and washer
woman. 1t is no WONDER therefore, that the one
can underbid the other in cheapness. But after
ALL there as not the difference IN prices that is claim
ed, The same kind of fare and accommodations
cost near about the same in both. The Catholics
make the most clear money, no doubt but then it
does not go into the pocket OF the parent but into
the Golfers of the church, to enrich the purse proud
boated hierarchy. This shows that the teachers
Of these schools themselves feel that they are work
ing for mother church when they are teaching your
daughters. But cheapness is not the only thing
to be considered. Catholics not as green as we
Protestants. They know what will build up their
churches, and they do it. They have very fen boys
schools and aohy? Because boys are not so easily
converted to the church as girls. But enough for
the present. Pray over this matter, and may God
direct you to the right decision, for time and
eternity, for your daughters, and for all connected
with you.
