TIE Vir ue Of Sound Training.

| The following extract of letter from former
elder in the Reformed Church, but now in Pres
byterian church in the West, addressed to his old
pastor in this vicinity, presents several points Of
interest:
II have now had nine years experience in the
Presbyterian Church. think, however, this part
of their field is not fair representation of the
whole body. Anyhow, [ am very thankful that
my religious training was not under such minis
tiers as | have met with here. The minister here
who gives US all the ministerial labor we get, is an
educated man, gentleman, and | think true
Christian yet consider him very unsound man,
and dangerous in his teachings. Among other er-
rors, he holds to the same views about the Fourth
Commandment as Professor Hopkins advanced be-
fore the Evangelical Alliance at Pittsburgh.
only discovered this about six months ago. in this
way He had been in the habit of getting me to
conduct service in his absence; finding that his ell
ders and himself were very loose in their manner
of observing the Sabbath, [ copied and read from
the Intelgencer an article on the observance of the
Sabbath. | showed it to our minister and told
the services. The result was he positively forbade
me 81 doing Ever since that period he has been
trying to convert me to his views. endeavored to
waive the subject, but he kept bringing it up, and
the result is regular breach between u.s. Anoth
or of his errors was that Jesus Christ did not as
sumo His Godhead until He was baptized but |
think he has given that up, although am not sure
Every person from the Reformed Church whose
lot is cast among such Presbyterians as find here
should take the Christian Mteligencer and read it,
which, with their Bible and the grace of God, will
enable them to maintain their faith steadfast to
the end - Christian Iatelligencer.

DR.. Cohen Stuart.

The Christian Inteligencer says Our readers
will learn with pleasure that this eminent divine
proposes to revisit our country during the present
year, and that during his absence from it he has
kept his heart warm to its interests. We have
just received the following note on the subject from
Rev. John b. Thompson, of Catskill, N. Y, to
which We cordially give room. DR.. Thompson says
" 1t may crafty many OF your readers to know
that DR.. and Mrs. Cohen Stuart expect to visit US
again early in this Centennial year. Their former
visit was in winter and they wish to see our coun.
try in summer as well as in its Centennial re.
jocing.
" I do not know any reason why should not
make known the contents of private letter so far
as they concern matters of public interest and i'm
portance. Dr. Stuart writes that he has already
collected about 81 800 for the Holland church OF
New York city and Mrs Stuart adds the addi-
tional information that of this sum 1000 guilders
(about $400) is gift from the king of Holland,
and that on the last Sunday in January, on her
husbands suggestion, they were to take up at
Amsterdam in all our Dutch Reformed churches a
collection for the same purpose.
" 1t is to be hoped that this evidence of sympa-
thy from the other side will stimulate us on this
side, so that this Centennial year may see com.
pleted veritable Dutch church in New York,
which shall stand to succeeding generations like
that 10 London, both as memorial Of the past and
an incentive to the future"
We may add to the foregoing that it is under
stood that DR.. Stuart would be willing to remain
permanently in this country if congenial work we're
offered to him. 1t surely would be great acqui-
sition to our Church if in some way either in the
West or the East his fine scholarship could be
made available in the Master service.

since the war. Three only them have installed
pastors, and eight only have stated preaching every
Sabbath. Many have preaching but once month,
or even less frequently.
The great need of ministers is seen in the fact
that of the forty -four on the roll thirtytwo report
themselves as fully on duty, and of these twelve
at least spend their main strength in teaching and
in manning the institutions of learning, leaving
only twenty whose chief business is to preach the
gospel
The great destitution is seen in the fact that in
some cases, minister is the supply for seven or
eight churches; several churches and important
mission fields are vacant, two or three regions need
only sufficient laborers to be set off into separate
presbyteries, and, IN many towns and country
places, material is ready to organise into churches;
but there is no one to care for them, while vast
missionary field for our church is ripe for the har.
vest in the four States embraced in the bounds of
the Synod.
A bright fact is that Seren men have Joined the
ministry the past year; six of them by ordination.
They are the promise of many more from the young
men in preparation.

plain, "that, in so far as they, or any of
them, can be supposed to import any ipjuri,
GUS imputations upon the present character
and standing of the Southern Assembly, as
Christians and Presbyterians, such an appli.
cation of them would be unjust to them, and
'0Oala be disapprOvsa and regretted By as. p"
Now, my good SirS, will you please tell
the world how this Assembly of yours in
1875, could, in the event eupI osed, do this
unless their regret and disapproval should
reach back and fix itself UPON the Assem-
blies passing such acts aud deliveranceS ?"
True they do not say that those acts in fact
"import " irjarious in putations upon
US; but they declare that if they did SO, they
would regret and disapp,Ove of them; thus
admitting the power and obligation of one
Assembly to disapproVe Of what they might
Judge to be wrong and unjust in other Assem-
blies- the very principle which maintain, but
which you derisively scout. Here then is
your own Assembly standing right in the
face of all your defamation and they sim
ply copied word for word from what your
Committee in Baltimore had uttered before,
and afterwards embodied in their report to
the General Assembly. Here too this part
of YOU case fails. And so your whole case
stands, or rather lies, az lame an both ats feet
as ever was poor Mephi5oSheth.
There may be some mischief loving read
ers who will be disposed to bring in just
here that self aattering figure of the ".t1at-
tering bird" with which you set out, and
with some unfriendly hints of your being
badly shot. | cannot allow such ungener-
GUS suggestions, and prefer to view your pre-
dicament in the kindlier aspect presented in
the case of the Irish servant, who attended
his master in hunting birds. AS we'll
aimed shot brought one of them down from
its far height, Patrick, who had eagerly run
to fetch it, innocently remarked to the sports
man that really he need not have troubled
himself at all to shoot the poor creature, for
the fall itself would have killed it as dead as
stone.
There are thoughts on other kindred top
cs, grave and urgent, but this communica-
ton must not be extended further. You
close with a pleasant allusion to the "latch
string" ready for me in the regions of "the
blue grass" sincerely subscribe to the
idea suggested This is no personal matter,
but q serious question between two eccle-
siastical bodies, where truth and Christian
honor are involved. And, indeed, under the
most grievous wrongs, whether personal or
ecclesiastical, we should ever try to observe
the rule, (f We cannot the measure) of that
Divine mercy which, while it hates the sin,
does not fail to remember the sinner with a
compassionate consideration. Thus striving
to do, though semper baud passib@S eq@'s, .

The Atlantic Synod of the Northern Presby
terian Church.

The progress Of the gospel amongst the colored
people is and always has been a subject OF great
interest to Southern Pre,bvterans and to South
ern Christians generally. For several years before
the close of the war; as nearly as we can learn our
colored membership numbered between seven and
eight thousand. in North and South Carolina,
Georgia and Florida. They enjoyed the regular
and careful pastoral labors of many Of our very
best ministers, besides being taught in numerous
church and plantation Sabbath Schools But when
they were liberated from slavery by the Federal
authority, they became easy prey to the arts OF
INSCRIPTIONS adventures who followed in the
train of the Federal armies They we're persuad-
ed by these people to dstrust their former masters
and friends. With these camp-felows who were
seeking for booty, came emissaries from the North
ern Church, whose misdeeds, as our readers may
remember, it was our painful duty frequently to
point out. By means similar to those employed
by the adventures who were seeking their way to
state treasures under political forms, these repre-
sentatives Of the Northern Church succeeded in
enticing from us nearly aSethe colored members
who had been gathered into our churches. Since
that time, for the most part our efforts in behalf
of the colored race have been looked upon with the
distrust they were taught to feel towards US, so
that we have been able to effect very little among
them.
During the last few years. we have reason to be.
ieve that there has been general improvement
10 the kind of ministers by whom the Northern
Church is represented in its work within our
borders. Some of them have proved themselves
to be trustworthy ministers of Christ, whose sole
object is to promote His cause, and not to excite
discord and gain proselytes from other churches
We take pleasure in laying before our readers the
following information respecting the present work
of the Northern Church in our Atlantic States,
which we copy from the Southern Evangelist, a
monthly journal which is published al Charlotte
N. O. The present membership, as will be SEEM
is reported at SS9-a slightly larger number than
we had under our care up to 1865. We earnestly
hope that the Lord may add daily to their church
es such as shall be saved.
