NOVEMBER l4th. 1882.

NOVEMBER 18th, 1882.
Me8sr8. Editors,-The special meeting
Of the Trustees of the College was held
to-day. The Rev. DR.. Atkinson resigned
the Office of President, which he had held
for nearly, if not fully, quarter Of a
century. DIR. Atkinson strenuously OBJ
Jected to proposition to postpone con-
sideration of the question Of accepting his
resignation indeed, a continuation of the
responsibilities of office, he believed,
would diminish his hopes of a restoration
to health. The trustees were, therefore,
shut up, to the reluctant consent, to ac-
cept the resignation 1t will take effect,
however, only at the end of the current
term, in June. A record was made of
the just appreciation of the long and faith
ful services of President Atkinson. No
record could be more honorable and pure
than that of this noble Christian gentle.
man, and the friends Of the college regret
the painful necessity OF severing a con
nection which has been productive Of so
much benefit to the country. 1t will

! able to give smaller amounts. Let aIksuch
act promptly and literally. It's a great
work we have before us, to evangelize and
establish the Church in our fifteen South
ern States. 1t requires. large amount
Of money to support the missionaries and
help build houses of worship. 1t is a
thing which cannot be postponed, but
must be done no1O. Immediate effort is,
therefore, demanded.
Ecclesiastical Action.
Many of the Presbyteries and Synods
have given unusual attention to the mat
ter Of Home Missions at their late meet
ings The providential call to ego up
and possess the land is fully recognized,
and in many cases practical action has
been taken, looking to immediate obedi-
ence thereto. Several of the Presby-
teries, which had not heretofore entered
upon the work, have appointed evange-
lists. Others have directed their COM
mittees to do so. The Synod of Ken
lucky is fairly launched upon vigorous
effort which has already attained success.
They have the means to sustain it, and
the future is hopeful. In the Synods Of
Virginia, Missouri, Arkansas, Memphis,
Alabama, and possibly in others, advanced
action was taken, but the question of
money to sustain and make it effective,
is the all-important one. The Synod of
Virginia commended an effort to obtain
within its bounds for Home Missions
$25, 900; the Synod of Missouri, $4,000;
the Synod of Memphis, $4,000.
This is well. 1t shows earnestness in
the Synods and in the members who com
posed them. But unless this action. is
followed up by the ministers and elders
in their congregations, and unless our
Christian people are so impressed by it
as to give largely it will all end in words
and prove an enervating and dispiriting
exercise, instead of an element of strength
What is now needed is Individual action,
inspired by and corresponding to that
of church judicatories. The Presbyteria
committees must go to work to arouse
their presbyters and through them their
congregations. Our preachers must
preach Home Missions from the pulpit
and from house to house and in coniunc-
tion with their sessions, adopt measures
to secure the liberal support of all their
members. Our Christian people must
give ldISely LOT Jne IuGLleraDCe OF Jle
cause In church which has one hun
dred and twenty five thousand members,
and seventy thousand children in its Sab
bath Schools, which has many men and
women of large means, and the most OF
whose members live in comfort; in
year of abundant harvests and am pie re-
turns for labor, and at time when the
finest opportunities of advancing Christ
kingdom are presented, it will surely be
a reproach, if the money needed be not
furnished. But it will be forthcoming, if
the interest excited at our late ecclesiasti
cal meetings can be carried down into
the hearts and purses of Gods stewards.

Of the $12, 1872 rs received, $500 comes
from a venerable Christian man, who
born under General Washington's ad-
ministration, loves the land of his birth
and desires to see it filled with the
knowledge of God. He is also true
Presby terian and believes that the
Church in which he has spent long
happy, and useful life, is adapted to
reach the masses, and ought to lengthen
her cords and strengthen her stakes
He is also genuine Southe1ner, and
thoroughly interested in the wonderful
growth of our population and in their
evangelization and salvation. He is not
rich, nor is he poor, but out of an ample
competence gives largely to the cause of
God in acknowledgment of his mercy
Are there not some of his juniors who
will initiate this example and join him
in efforts to win our land for Christ?
We are glad to say that the number
of contributions from individuals (ranging
from one to one hundred dollars) is much
larger than in any former year, and we
hope that many more will come forward
with liberal gifts. 1t is also pleasant to
note that the mite chests have con-
tributed over four hundred dollars Of the
amount received. These are chiefly used
in families and Sabbath Schools, and the
children are to be credited with large
part of this result Thus it appears that
the aged and the young are joining in
this effort, and it is hoped that the day
is not far distant when every one within
the bounds Of the Church will be inter
ested in it.
The Prospect.
Although, as will be seen, some pro-
gress has been made, it is so little in
comparison with what is needed, as to be
quite saddening. We yet require S87.-
617.22 to make up the 100000 wanted
and there are but FIVE months in which
to obtain it before the close of the eccle.
sisstical year. The effort to raise this
full amount within the specified time
may appear to some chimerical, and vet
it can be accomplished, if all concerned
will lend helping hand and should
complete success not be reached, great
advance will be made
We were much cheered this morning
by receiving a draft for five hundred dol
lars from a venerable and devoted Chris
tian WOMAN native of New York
now a resident of Florida to help for
ward this great work We have also
been strengthened by message from one
Of our princely Virginia givers, that she
will soon send FIVE hundred dollars for
this same purpose. Neither of these is
rich, but they love the Saviour, the
Church, and the souls Of men, and the
land in which they live and they desire
to do good There are not few in the
Church far more able to contribute
thousand or FIVE thousand dollars, than
are these generous souls to give FIVE hun
dred. Then, there are many who can
not afford to do so much, but, are we'll

"-May be it would" he said Indifferent
