China Missionary Conference.

The Conference met at Shanghai, on the 10th of
May. A correspondent of the New York EUange-
list gays:
There we're present about one hundred and
twelve different missionaries, representing nearly
if not quite every Protestant missionary society at
work In this field. 1t was q grand sight, and was
visible proof of the real union in heart and work
among these Christian ambassadors
The opening service was sermon from the Rev.
j. V. N. Talmage, D. D., of Annoy, who found a
most fitting topic for his discourse in the words of
our Saviour as recorded by Matthew in the twenty,
eighth chapter, 18th to 10Th verses. Two chair
men we're elected-the Rev. DR.. Nelson, of the
American Episcopal Mission, Shanghai, and Rev.
Dr. Douglas of the Scotch Presbyterian Mission
Annoy. In view Of the protracted sessions two Sec
retaries were chosen, viz Rev. S. L. Baldwin of
the American Methodist Episcopal Mission, Foo
chow, and Rev. j. Butler American Presbyterian,
Ningpo. Rev. W. Muirhesd of the London Mis-
sion, Shanghai, was chosen Treasurer"
The conference met morning and evening Of each
day, and interesting addresses were delivered by
Rev. Mr.. John, Rev. Dr.. Williamson, Rev. DR..
Edkins, etc.
A letter was read from Rev. j. L. Nevius, D. D.,
Chifoo He was unable to attend the Conference
because of the intensity of the famine which he and
others are trying to alleviate The famine Is still
pressing hard upon the people. DR.. Nevius says
he is distributing to about $4,000 people daily,
while two other missionaries are supplying about
10000.
In the afternoon of the third day the subject of
i" Itineration, Far and Near" was discussed by
Rev. Mr. Helm, one Of the missionaries of our
Southern Church, and Rev. j. Ii. Taylor Super
iutendent Of China Island Mission. Their papers
proved very interesting and profitable, showing
the necessity for ineraton, facilities for it in Chi
ma, and methods for carrying it on. AS this is a
work which nearly every missionary. engages in to
a greater or less extent it called forth many re.
marks. Some regarded long journeys to distant
places as being very profitable, when the matter of
immediate results is not considered of chief i'm
portance. Results may be seen sooner by working
a small district, just as by the use Of forcing
frame, you may cause small spot of earth to be
covered with verdure But seed widespread, after
time springs up, showing broad field, with rich
promise of harvest The united plan of preaching
and distributing Bibles and tracts was introduced
and the prominence which each should receive
Some were of the opinion that tract distribution is
often of the most Importance, as g. g., in passing
through city, if foreigner stops upon the street
to preach, crowd soon collects, the street is
blocked up, the shop-owners are annoyed, all trade

GAY CHRISTIANS.

The statistics of the Senior Class of Yale
College have just been published The class
numbers III members. The most minute
particulars are given of the age, height,
weight, opinions, personal habits and future
purposes of each member. Among other
things we find that there are 68 church mem
bers in the class. Or the total III, ali Oui
attend the theatre, all but 10 play cards,
and 80 indulge IN the dance. Whether it is
under the pressure of poverty or Of principle
that deny themselves the pleasure of the
theatre and 10 absent themselves from the
card-tab'e, We are not informed. Of the 81
dancers, it is noted that 10 perform only in
the square dance. Doubtless they occupy
this high moral platform in order that, as the
salt of the earth, they may have the adVan-
tage Of position for being sprinkled on the
corrupt mass below, and as lights of the
world, their good deeds may be the more con-
spicuous. No inquiry seems to have been
made as to the use of profaue language, or
the Observance of the Sabbath. Possibly
these things may not be taken into the ac-
count of Christian ethics at Yale.
With such liberal allowances, we are at a
loss to know why any young man, however
gay, should object to becoming church
member, unless indeed he would thereby lay
himself liable to be called on for an occasion
al church contribution. On the other hand
we are bound to say, that We do not see that
it would do him much good in this world or
the world to come.
Some educators express the opinion that
the boating, base ball, and Scotch athletics
now embedded in the College curriculum,
have a tendency to interfere with the maste-
ry of Science, Language and Philosophy, and
some divines and nearly all ecclesiastical as
sembHes advise against the theatre and the
csrd,table as unsafe for young Christians
These views however, may be the result of
narrow mindedness and Anticipated preju-
dices. We ought not to limit the possibilities
of evolution and resolution. A distinguisha6
Priucetonian argues that to deny
tality of the soul, is the surest SPECIFIC y
the errors of the Roman Catholic religion,
and it is certain that gambling and dancing
Christians can never become Mohammedans.
It is worthy of note how happily, under
the law Of action and reaction, Christian
doctrine and Christian practice become as
simulated. Il may be questioned whether,
had the theology of DR., Dwight continued
dominant at Yale, church members there
would at present be as gay as this statistical
report shows them to be; and it would not be
surprising if the existing practices should
before long eliminate what still remains of
former doctrines.

For THE CENTRAL PRESBYTERIAN.
A Court of the Lord Jesus.
Baltimore, June 18th, 1877.

The inquiry has recently been made by what au
thority Presbytery is designated as a court of the
Lord Jesus Christ The inquiry seems to imply
that there is arrogance in assuming, either that
there is special authority given by Christ to the
courts of his Church for the judicial investigation
and settlement of causes or that some special sane
tity belongs to the members of the court. If the
Church is a spiritual commonwealth it must be
governed by laws, and these laws need to be both
interpreted and administered by those who are ap'
pointed thereunto. The term court may not be
the very best to express the idea intended to be
conveyed, inasmuch as it has technical sense as
employed in reference to civil tribunals and it may
possibly mislead those who would infer from its
employment that the functions of civil and eccesi
astcal courts are identical. The term with which
we are familiar and which serves every purpose is
"iudicatory," and on many accounts may be pre-
ferable to the term either word
will sufficiently well convey the sense intended
that the law which Christ has given for the gov
ernment of his Church must be interpreted and
administered by those whom he has appointed to
rule.
Il may easily be proved that call to rule in the
Church is as clear and distinct as a call to preach,
and that the law for government is as distinctly an
nounced as the authority for preaching. The func-
tons of Church court, if not defined with absolute
precision in the Bible, are at least SO limited and
controlled by either inference or direct precept,
that there ought to be no difficulty in determining
what authority the Head of the Church has given
to those who are called and appointed to rule.
With respect to the nature and extent of Church
power, the Book Of Order says: 1.-THE power which
Christ has committed to his Church vests in the
whole body, the rulers and the ruled constituting
it spiritual commonwealth. Ecclesiastical power
which is wholly spiritual is two-fold the officers
exercise it sometimes severaly as in preaching the
gospel, administering the sacramento, etc., which
is the power OF order; and exercise it sometimes
Jointly in Church courts, after the form of judg-
ment which is the power Of jurisdiction" If this
power of jurisdiction has really been committed to
the church so that it has authority not only to re-
ceive members into the communion Of the Church,
but also to cut off unworthy members from Church
privileges, then the term excepted to does accur'
ately express the very work which has been COM
mitted to the officers of the Church. No other
sanctity than such as is implied in fitness for the
Office of ruler in the Church is claimed by those
who sit in Church courts. A sheriff may not be
the strongest manin the county but he has author
ity which no other man in the county possesses
Church officers may not be immaculate and yet
may be authorized to administer law.

education of colored Presbyterian minister's

to tell them that We could not help desiring

prove and admire.
Yesterday their action vas had, which was
very warm and earnest commentator OF
the Tuskaoosa Institute, and the aforesaid
work of evangelisation through our Commit
tee, to all their churches.
Last evening their Foreign Missionary
meeting took place. Very able addresses
we're made By Dr.. Chamberlain and two Drs'
Scudder from the Arcot Mission. These
stirred the hearts Of all present deeply, yet
they took up no collectiOn-which thought
was great mistake; for hold that 1T is
wrong ever 10 rouse the Christian Sympathief
without giving opportunity for immediate &C.
ton in accordance Herewith. But they have
repaired the error this morning by making a
very lively effort to begin the raising of $780,
900 to pay off debt which stands in the way
J of their very prospeross aud successful For,
eign Missionary work. They got subScrip,
tions and pledges on the spot for S.. 600, and
are all much encouraged.
When I agreed to accept the appointment
of delegate to this body, had the impress
sion that l could come on and make my re
spects and then take leave of them and re
turn. But 1 soon perceived that that wa'
neither becoming in view of our peculiar re

tons entertained in the two bodies and hith
erto acted on BY the delegates. | therefore
felt it was my duty, though at some persona
inconvenience, 10 remain; and purpose tt
remain and attend all their sessions to tn
end. 1 hope our alliance with this Church
may prove to be much more than mer'
name. And 1 see no difficulty in the way o
both Churches securing by means of it, per
haps every advantage that could flow out o
a proper organic union.
