Ofiles Ne Ws Corner of Pulton nd Nessa sea} RELIGIOUS ANNIVERSARIES. ‘@welfth Anniversary of the American Fie male Moral Reform Society. The twelfth anniversary of the American Fe male Moral Reform Society, was celebrated on Wednesday evening, in the Allen Street Church. The assemblage consisted of about 800 sober ma- trons—staid spinsters—a few old bachelors, and thirty or forty blooming maidens.. All seemed on the gui vive for the revelations which they hada right to expect, from the character of the meeting —which was called to order about balf-past 7 o’elock. Auvin Stewart was appointed Chairman, and the meeting was opened with prayer.

There wasn very full attendance in this com- modious, spacious and beautiful edifice, on the oaession of the Anniversary of the American So- ciety, on Wednesday evening, for Meliorating the Condition of the Jews, among whom was a very considerable portion of the sons and daughters of Israel. The Very Rev. Dr. MitiEvo.er, Prosident of the Society, made.a very eloquent appeal to the Throne of Grace, employing language the most tolemn, simple, and unaffected. The Treasurer then submitted a brief abstract from the annual report, from which it appears that the receipts of the last year were $3,886 43, and that the expenditures were $8,743 88 for the same period— Jeaving « balance in the Treasurer's hands of $142 66.

This Society held its third anniversary last Wed- nesday evening, at Dr. Cone’s Baptist Church, in Broome street. At half-past seven, the hour of meeting, the large church was densely crowded ‘with a highly respectable audience. Prayer was first made by Dr. Baron, when the annual report was read by the Rev. Mr. Thomp- son, Corresponding Secretary of the Society. The report was confined to a general view and explanation of the views and objects of the Sociv- ty. It was commenced in 1848, and has for its object the religious regeneration of Italy. This is proposed to be done by disseminating the Bible and religious works, especially historical works, such as D’Aubigne’s History of the Reformation, while the agents to be employed in this work aro to be Italians. Itely was represented as ripe for this reforma- tion, and with a general desire to be liberated from the thraldom and religious tyranny of the Pope and the priests. Tho exertions and energies of the society, and cong. ty and noble purposes, had excited so much alarm in the breast of the Pops ‘of Rome, that he hed fulmins- te bull ») ally against this society and its objects.— The ditto from ition of int: diced elaine gio rhe them circulation, were as being ne! to be surmounted. There were ways and means which it would not be prudent to pone cog GE ing where, no doubt, some agents from i were present. meeting. began by observing that after such gn able report as had just been heard. it was uot necessary him to enter into much discussion upon the subject. All that remains to be done is to press home the purposes and objects as laid open in the report. It became bim to be on his guard, as time was p! us. ee. few reasons why this association —— to be che: and supported. The object of the Christian Allisnce is the extension of religious freedom and the circulation of re- ligiows knowledge. Religious freedom is necessary for religion itself ; a free agent must be free, or else he can the faded to, While much is done for the heathen, of whom os know butlittle or nothing—in their bekalfour efforts drag heavily.

For such shameful neglect he had to admit his own want of effi- ciency and support; and he upbraided himself for so long. and continued neglect as he had hitherto manifested. So fs it with al) of our ministers; and he hoped that the time was near at hand, when the Jews—God’s own people— would be regarded with proper consideration.

Dr. Edwards, Vice President of the society, presiding. As was to be expected, from the deep and very general interest manifested in the success of this great movement, the entire portion of this commodious edifice was filled to repletion. The Corresponding Secretary submitted a brief abstract from his annual report, and stated that what has been done in the furtherance of this cause could not be expected from the hands of the committee ; for it is not so much their duty to speak of the past as to speak of that which at present exists. From the twelve county and twenty State s,in the different portions of the State, from which we heve received the most gratifying returns, it ay , from the date of the temperance reformation to Iblis large diminution of crime is observable, although there is evidently a very material increase of population. It wes almmitted upon all hands that this sensible diminu- tion was alone to the success of the temper ance movement. The Secretary referred to the States of Massschusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut, where the anti-license laws wailed, as a still fur- ther proof of the it his privilege to main. tain.

Of all things that are brought forward to the gospel, intemperance is the most fruitful and dangeroms enemy.
