twenty-five churches, thirty thousand converts,
two hundred and fifty schools, in which forty
| thousand children are taught, and ten millions
of depraved Africans to whom the blessings
of the Christian religion in one form or other
have come. There are altogether more than
fifteen thousand missionaries at work to-day
in heather lands. And every year the mission
work is growing more hopeful. The children
are taught the English language in the mission
schools, and in China and Japan the State has
made provision for having it taught in the
public schools as well. 1t is said that in
every village between the Gambia river and
the Gamboon in Africa, a distance of two
thousand miles, the English language is
spoken. By and by the children and youth
thus educated and grown up to manhood and
womanhood will perpetuate and extend this
language and the Christianity with which 1t is
so thoroughly identified. And mark how
literally the prophecy is being fulHlled-"With
speak unto this people, saith the Lord"-in
every quarter of the globe. The English
language is peculiarly the language of Chris
tan civilization in this nineteenth century,
and heather nations are recognizing it by
having it taught to their children at home and
by sending their sons to England and America
for better and more complete education.
Truly the Church, looking at these results may
we'll exclaim, "What hath God wrought"
But no better mission field could be found
than our own broad land. Here Jew and
Gentle, Christian and pagan take refuge and
find home, and hence here the several de-
nominations have extensive missions among
the foreign populations. Since the war closed
the South has become also great mission
field for Northern Christians. Though slavery
that no resurrection trump can ever again
wake its slumbers, the spirit Of sectional and
religious animosity which it engendered still
lives as intense, though not as active, as ever.
There is no more affiliation between local
branches of the same denomination than there
is between distinct sects. Hence the Metho-
dists, Baptists, Presbyterians and other Chris
tan churches of the North enter the Southern
States somewhat as they would enter India or
China They open their own missions, gather
and organize their converts into churches, and,
when the numbers are sufficiently large, confer
ences, presbyteries or associations are formed.
And in this way the North is gaining the ALE
glance the South. We have the money to build
the churches, found the schools and colleges,
and to pay the ministers and teachers; and
the Southern people, white and black, need
the religion and the education which we fur
nish and which they are yet too poor to pay
for. But by and by, as their wealth increases,
the local churches will become sef-supporting,
but they will have in the meantime become
so concliated by intercourse with their
Northern brethren that they will not seek to
sever the ties which bind them together. And
thus gradually the union of UNCONVENTIONAL
branches will take place in this land, and may
we not hope the union of sects also?

Dr. D0LLTNGER has been elected Rector of
the University Of Munich. Fifty-four profess

has hitherto occupied the professorship of
canon law, and the honor now conferred
upon him is of the greatest significance and
shows that he has risen in popularity.

only few days since. Thus, one of Moore's
most pathetic lyrics is that in which he repre-
sents the Genius of Erin as weeping ON the
banks of the Boyne, having seen Discord drop
his loaded culver in the tide:-
But VAN her WISH her weeping vain,
As time too well had taught her;
Each year the fend returns again
And dives into that water
Nor has any one portrayed the arrogant,
absurd claims of the Orangemen more faith
fully than Moore, who, as everybody knows,
was never bigot in religion or partisan i'm
politics. There is nothing more characteristic
of Orangemen than to regard 1t as q grievous
wrong to be prevented from iniicting all pos
sble mischief on their neighbors. Some Of
their petitions to Parliament, on being inter-
fered with by the authorities in order to pre- ,
vent bloodshed, would seem burlesques Of
very gross order were they not attested but
too well. Moore has given us parody Of one
of those curious documents stanza will
show how well he has done the work -
That forming oneseventh within few fractions,
OF Irelands millions OF hot heads and hearts,
We mold it the basest OF all base transactions
To Keep us from murd'ring the other six parts.

The Rapides Gazette of the seventeenth
instant has the following about the recent
storm there:
We have no good reports to make of the
condition of the weather, crops and river
since our last. On Friday last. we had the
most incessant and tremendous rain ever
known in this section of country. On Sat
nrday the wind blew almost, if not entirely
to the point of "a tornado, hurricanes, all
thrown in, leveling to the ground almost
the entire crop of corn orchards were
almost entirely stripped of their fruit
peach, apple, pear and all other kind OF
trees were torn up by the roots and gen
eral destruction seemed to prevail: i'll fact,
the losses by the storm in our parish are i'm
mense.
We never, during our twenty-six years
residence in Rapides, saw the river oppo-
site Alexandria so rough, it being impos-
sible at times to cross in Captain Graham's
.skiff, which is the largest and best that
could be built. One of the ferrymen, in
attempting to cross came very near being
swamped, the surf being so high that il
threw him over backwards, losing his oar,
ana he had to get out the best way he
could
The river at this place we believe is
rising at the rate of about two inches in
twenty-four hours, and if it continues at
the same rate two or three days longer, we
are bound to go under for a time. At any
rate, things look rather squally.

Attempted Escape of Sing Sing Convicts

Attempted Escape of Sing Sing Convicts.
SING SING. June 20.-Three conyicts
named john Wilson, James Cox and James
Ward, made desperate and almost sue
cessful attempt TO escape from prison here
this morning. They commenced operations
about eleven o'clock, by Selling q grocer's
wagon, which happened to be left standing
unattended in the prison yard Jumping
into the wagon, they dashed the horse furi-
ously, and dashed past the guard at rapid
rate, defying any attempts TO obstruct their
passage. The guards were taken completely
by surprise at the suddenness of the move
ment, and before they could recover from
their establishment, the wagon and its occu-
pants were fairly out of the gate and driven
quickly Oft. Twenty shots were fired after
them without effect. A number of prison
officials instantly rode after them in hot pur-
suit, and after an exciting chase of twenty
minutes, during which the officers continued
firing on the fugitives as they pursued them,
they succeeded in overtaking them about a
mile from the prison, on the high road lead
ing to Tarrytown. The prisoners quietly
succumbed and allowed themselves to be
taken back without resistance. Wilson was
found to be shot in the thigh, but not dan
gerously. They were returned to prison and
placed in irons. Wilson, however was re-
moved to the hospital, where he had his
wound dressed.
A suit of citizens clothes was found in
the wagon, which some of the prisoners,
doubtless, intended to substitute for the
prison garb as soon as they were fairly be-
yond pursuit. Wilson was undergoing sen
tence of two years and six months, Cox two
years, and Ward ten years, at the time they
attempted to escape.

five rows of trees, a total width of one hum
