Subject—“Currer Boll and Nathen THE TEMPERANCE WOMEN IN THE FIELD DIVISIONS IN THE COLD WATER ARMY. WOMAN VERSUS MAN. PROTEST OF MISS LUCY STONE, AGAINST THE PROCEEDINGS OF THE MEETING HELD IN THE BRICK CHURCH. Tho following advertisement appeared on Saturday morning, in several city papers :— ‘The Whole World's Temperance Convention.—, Will be hold at tho Brondway Taboranclo, on, Sabarday soe ning, Mi it 8 o'clock. “Lui Stor ‘ill presi view of Th Proceedings of certain saale” dclesetee oh ti meeting held in the Brick Church Chapel, on Tht ursda morning, by which the regularly appointed ‘delegates of ax efficient State Temperance Sooisty were insult jeoted because they wero women; thus pall the spirit and letter of the publis! Emily Clark, ‘men, will also deliver ai \dress. more, will speak. Tickets 123¢ cents. In accordance with the foregoing, the Broadway Taber- nacle was crowded on Saturday evening by the friends of temperance, and a large number of others, who were at- tracted more by curiosity than sympathy with the cold water cause. The notoriety of Miss Lucy Stone, Miss Susan B. Anthony, and other strong-minded women, with and without pants, and the fact that Miss Stone was that night to come out in full force against the late meeting in the Brick Church, filled the building nearly an hour before the appointed time. Among the audience were several ministers of different denominations, and a slight sprinkling of the b’hoys, who occasionally broke out in hisses, and other marks of dissent. With Ute exceptions, however, the meeting was very ordorly, and, so far as the temperance women were concerned, they certainly had it all their own way. A little after eight o'clock, the fair orators made their appearance, accom panied by a number of orators less fair, and took their seats upon the stage, ‘There was Miss Lucy Stone, who is not a Bloomer; Miss Susan B. Anthony, who is; C. C. Burleigh, remarkable for the extraordinary length and redness of his beard; Miss Emily Clark, of Leroy, who as- tonished our State Legislature one day, by marching into the Capitol at the head of a corps de reserve of temperance women, with a petition a great many yards long, and besides these there were two or three others, who, we be- lieve, never astonished any one. Well might we exclaim, with the poet, on looking at the strange sight before us— “Ye men of deep researches, say whence spri ‘This daring character in timovous titers si Who start at feathers, from an insect fly, A match for nothing—but the Deity.”” Surprised as Young was in his day, at the doings of woman, how would he be astonished now, could he but see the strides which she has taken, and the terrible ef- forts she is making to unsex herself. At eight o’clock, we may say. they made their appear- ace end were received with the most flattering ese When the demonstrations of applause subsided, Miss Su san B, Anthony, chaigwoman, presented herself to the audience, and informed them of the pleasure she felt in introducing Miss Emily B. Clark. -~ The young Indy promptly exhibited herself, and ex- ovpe as well as looks could express, the pleasure she elt in being introduced. Then, with the utmost non-cha- lance, she delivered herself substantially as follows :— Gentlemen and ladies—The question has been asked within a few days Rete what bas the New York Woman's State Temperance ety dove? I answer, it has main- tained an active position for more than a year—oonse- juently, it has done what it could do. I speak most truth- fully whe Teas within the first year it has done what it could, to the fullest extent of its means, to ameliorate the evils growing outot the liquor traffic, and did what it could to procure the passage of a law hibiting the sale of intoxicating drinks, And who ll say we have not done well, if we have done what we could? What more could we have done? Lot it be remembered that we are thrown on the defensive here tonight. We don’t wish to laud our own doings. We would rat our works would speak for us. (Af@louse.) But I may be pardoned ifI make afew remar@™ Our society has four active agents; it has enrolled aiftevg its members, two thousand men and women in nearly equal numbers ; ithas distributed fifty thousand pages ef temperanee tracts ; it bas carried, during the last winter, ae peti- ion of twogty-cight thousand women, into the’ State La- gislature, and during the year ‘evious, those who were =o tered dbis orgs atecsion, pra. sented another petition, h sand igvatures, into The same bole ‘Tho elestions, 1a" Tho chile aarp een car elections, in some € in favor of no license, through the éflorts 6: t society, and women, a8 we are, we have exerted our influence upon the State elections through those who possess the power to protéct woman where sho most needs it. Allow me to direct your atten- tion to the position of the temperance reform in the past. Near one-third of a century has elapsed since this reform orij ted, and what has been the result? Where are. we ‘today? A glorious advancement has been made by thore who have laid their lives, their time and their property, a willing sacrifice upon this altar. During the past year, New York bas had its eight thousand grog shops, and all the fearful results which the liquor traffic produces have been experience hero. Now, let me ask you, why is it that we find the temper- ance reform no further advanced—that in our glorious Empire State, a Legislature conyened at the capitol last fall, adjourned without giving us the Maine Liquor law?— a majority was committed on the side of the liquor traffic. it is im this position to-day, because she has been deprived of her heayen-born rights—be eause she has been shut out from every rafor- matory measure, I firmly believe the bistory of the future will amply demonstrate that a great mis- take has been committed in this great reform (Ap pa se.) Women are required in it, and why should «he not wed to Iabor as publicly in the suppression of the man. When I hear mon talk of woman being out of re when she pleads for the a¢atement of this evil, er occurred to them that the wives of the thirt thousand drupkards in our States are not out of their Proper sphere—has it ever occurred to them that women of delicate sensibilities and feelings are compelled to as: sociate with sots—has it ever occurred to taen that they are out of their proper sphere and position. (Applause.) They are quite Chlivinun ws the (ook of thsea women being out of their proper sphere, but when we appear upon the rostrum to plead the rights of these women, they are shocked at the impropriety. Call woman weak, talk of the delicacy of her nature, of the indelicacy of her ocen- pying a public position.’ Poor weak woman. She has always been weak—has it not been so from tho beginning? Did she not first yield to temptation? « Ab! yes; Eve could conquer Adam—poor elf! But to conquer woman—it took Sotaa himself.’ (Lavghter and applause.) Let those then, who would silence woman's voice, who would call them from the path of duty, look to it that they don’t take » fearful responsibility upon themselves, when they use the word of God in endeavoring o prevent her from doing what she can for the sake of right and justice. (Applause. ) Dry. SNovGaass next prevented himself, and expressed, in a very long and tedious speech, his astonishment at the injustice of which the meeting in the Briek Church had been guilty. When he had weoried the audience with this st: for more than half an hour, and received seve ral broat hints that he had said quite enough, he rat down. The orator of the evening was then introduced by the Chairwoman amid loud applause. When silence was re- stored, Miss Lucy SToxi proceeded, with the greatest gout in‘aginable, to use up the unhappy gentlemen who hsé been so unfortunate as to ircur her displearure. tone is a first class female orator, has » sweet, ical_voicé, and is witbal very sarcastic when she likes. On this occasion, she wed up her antagonists, ‘horse and foot,’’ and came off triumphant. We shonld like, however, to hear the other side, before passing on- fins] judgment, After making her bow to the audience “the orator of the evening” spoke as follows :— It is fur more agreeable for me, as I think it would be for you. always to speak of pleasant rather than of un- plensant things. know, teo, that when oue is compelled to state urpleasant facts, often the blame of tne fact ix given fo the person who relates it; but I wact to ack you that whatever shameful facts are told to-night, that the diame shall be attached to those who are the cause of it. ‘The speaker who preceded me raid he did not dream— coming as he did from a slayeholding State—he did not dresm that when we met in the Brick Charch, such an issue would be made, It is not enough for me to say what 1 thought. We were there under the call of friends of temperance ; we went there—for no one has a stronger interest in the cauee than woman—we went there moved by our interest in that cause, and went without any claim beyond what the call allowed us to make, ‘The ladies who were «olegates to the convention, were permitted to hand in their cre. deutials, and to the surprise of some, when a no- ble man nominated a noble woman for an oflice, all through the audienge were heard sounds of dise pp bation aud dissent, mingled with calls to order, and mo- tions to adjourn. ‘It wa eaid that women hed no busi. ness there—women who were the wives and daughters of drunkards, were told to their faces by Doctors of Divinity, and clergymen wo didn’t have the title of D.D. to their name, suid it was not s fit place for them. We did not mcot the question of women’s rights, we merely desired that women should be recognized as nart of the world, aud her rights accorded as part of the Convention. But. one gray headed minister, who it he was not ashamed of what he said, will not be ashamed to bave his nume men. ticned—Dr, Hewitt—-and Lknow it is not easy for an old ian, who has taken a formula and adopted itas his ereed, it is net easy for him to chango—like a bar of iron, he has become rigid.

(Ap ae? Now I remember having heard him, in Metso} itan when he said, ‘God has placed woman in the centre of this movement, that she may be to the moral what the sun is to the physical world.’’” But, instead of Her bpary sunship in the Brick Church, he only called us his candle, and put his bushel over it. “W< ”? said he, ‘is the sun—to te, enlighten and cheer;” but when we cume to look at the fact, he says by his ‘actions : “regu- lations subject to our order.’ One man in the conven- tion, whore name I did not learn, said : ‘I value women— we could not do without them,’ and when we went to ‘Metropolitan Hall, I found they valued us as men do their horses—for whatever purpose serves them best. (Laugh- ter.) At the convention in Metropolitan Hall, the speaker said, we want you, gentlemen and ladies, to vote, because when we voted he said we had a heart in tt. An audience of ladies, he added, never contributed much, because they had not the control of the purses. (Laughter and applause.) After scorning every man’s mother and sister at the Brick Church, they came to the Metropolitan Hall, bowever. and asked us to contribute—to pay their sala- ries, and what other bills Idon’tknow. (Renewed laugh- ter ) Mr Barstow seemed desirous of giving credit to Rhode Island for the noble manner in which she received Roger Williams, after bis banishment from Massachu- setts; but, Mr. Barstow, who admires toleration, would gug the mouths of balf the world—he builds the tombs of the old prophets, and digs the graves of the new. (Applause.) Mr. Hewitt tried to prove from the Bible when the “scum” was gone—for so they called us although they sometimes tell us we are angels—he tried to prove that women should not speak or engage in the work of men. But if he knows Greek he must know that the translation is, ‘‘ women must not speak;’’ for what, it does not say. Now you know that whatever is fit for any body to do, women can ‘do; and whcever oan doit has God's certificate to do it.’ (Bnthusiastic applause.) I presume look upon no person here who has not seen the face of the drunkard’s wife or daughter, who, when the fire Bad none out on her hearth stone, and the light of hope in her soul presented indeed a spectacle for the pity and sympathy of the world. I saw the wife of a drunkard who was 0 cruelly beaten by her husband, that she was blackened ull over with blows—that woman, when telling ber sad tale of woe to a friend, gpite of herself, found the big tear drops rolling dewn her dhecks, and the great grief of ner heart in vain voring to find utterance. This wo- man, and others in her circumstances, comes to the Brick Church, and asks tobe saved from this brutal treatment, from these cruel blows; but Mf: ayor Barstow says, in rep! to her, yon cannot sit io this body, and Dr. Hewitt tele her she is out of her place. The daughter of the drunkard, in the person of her representative, comes to thet con- vention, and says as one drunkard’s daughter did say :-— “Ge feel as I have felt, And bear what I have borne; Sink ‘neath the blows that father dealt, Aud the cold world’s proud scorn. Then struggle on from year to year, ‘Your role relief the scalding fea Fa Go kneel as I have knelt, Implore, beseech, and pray, Strive the besotted heart to melt The downward course to stay. [The remainder of this, consisting of a dozen verses, was recited with much dramatic effect by the fair orator. She then continued as follows:—] And wany drunkard’s daughters with hearts like this, send Susan B. Anthony to plead her cause; but Mr. Fow- ler says, shall women ue us everywhere; he has no companion when that daughter appears before him, and he taunts her because she should gneak of tho wrongs she has suffered. In your city last summor, a little boy was by the enemy of his mother, to enter ong of thene droua groggei ics that are to be found in the i g é s 3 z Fleve ard, aud was made xo drain inat Mf as not eble to Keep its place in the body. The mother took her boy in her arms, watched its life us it ebbed away—that mother, robbed of Ler gon by the demon of intemperance, sent Emily Clark here to ask, that when the world met together, she might be allowed to tell the grief tbat woman feels and todo something to save her young childen; but the meeting at the Brick Church said, we won't have wo: mien among us. No matter, let her child dis before her eyes; let her be the wife or daughter of a drunkard, she has ho right there. But the whole meeting did not say that; the Rev, Mr. Thompron spoke in favor of equal rights; andIam glad to mention this and many other honorable exceptions. The Mayor of Providence said he thought as much of yoman as most men do. (Langhter.) if {Lat is nota slander upon you, gentemen, I am sorry. (Renewed laughter and applanee:) “Ard yet these men who exclude women are perpetually exclaiming they are admire:s of women, Now, suppose this Tabernacle was on fixe to-night, and a woman oa the out- side discovers the fire, and puts a ladder up to the windows with real earnestness and sincerity to save us inside, A DD, steps up and tells” her it is very unwomoly, and tumbles down the ladder. Now, must he nct bea crazy man who would prevent her from saving the building and the precions lives it contains, I say when a man sees thirty thousand drunkards go down to an unbonored grave every year; when he sees their wives and children; whem he sees a society like ours, endeavoring to do away,with these evils, and he says“No; let the widow wailon, and the child shalljre- main the child of a drunkard—what do you think of the sincerity of sucha man? | (Applause.) “Whoever in| the friend of a cause is glad of helpers from any source, and he who is true to bis convietions as a temperunee advo- cate, will even accept the aid of children. He who is a real friend of the cause, will say welcome, thrice weleome 16 these who come to put out the fire that burns in tho distillery, and destroys the lives of our brothers and husbands. Why this opposition, then, to women? Does it not come from those who are op- posed to reform, and who would stay the progress of the race, Wo were told a few years ago, that because there were then no steamboats and telegraphs there sbould be none; so that, accouding to this reascn, as there were no voyages of discovery before the discov. e1y of America, therefere Isabelia was a very. fool- ish woman, and should not have helped Colum- bus. But we must remember that there is such a thing as progress, and Tam sure, in the language of the poet, ny scul is not the palace of the past.” (Great ap: plause ) Ihave no dread cf what is ealled for ‘by the in- stinets of the race. Whoever opens his ears, hears every where ihe ery for reform; it comes over the ocean from every é and hamlet of the Oid World; the newspaper scarcely dry, before the reform it records is followed on its’ heels by another; and while every reform is rendering © woman ‘more free, she shall net come to the World's Convention as a helper, if Mayer Barstow, who thinks “more of women than mort men,’? ean prevent her. I know there are men who are willing to ignore the existence of woman and her rights, moking them inferior to their own; but they are not men who act in that way, and we will appeal from them to ‘hose who are willing to treat us justly, and to whom we shall not appeal in vain, when we show that there ere vad hearts to be comforted, aud erring minds to be refer Now, I say, men and women of New York, or from whatever quarter of the world you come, whether you like it or not—whether you say ‘God Bless’? or “God curre"—whether you give us the right hand of fellowship, or turn your back in scorn—whether you write down as unwomanly women, and unfit to live—co what you pleaca, but .o lopg ax there is cue mother that leads by the hand a druckard, and the child of a drunkard; so long as one tear. drop comes from her eye; so long as one man can feel enough reverence for his own soul to stay away from the wine eup, co long will we, in season and out of season, in highways and hyeways, in public and private places, wherever we can find an ear to hear, there will we speak; (tremendous applause) and no or eetof men, 10 wo- man or +et of women shall ever Binder us, (Repeated app'ance.)

Miss Stene here resumed her seat, amid the most en- thusiartic applavre. In accordance with the genoral de- sire of the audience, C. C. Brrixic, whose beard is long- er and redder than most men’s, aa we before truthfully remarked, came forward and spoke as follows :—I came not here this evening with any expectations of speaking, but rather to hear, because I knew who was to address you. (Turning to 'where Miss Stone was sitting, and smiling at ber with the visible part of his face.) You will easily understand, then, that I had reason for coming here.

Douglass having been discovered among the audience, was called upon the platform amid mingled hisses and cheers, Finding when he got there that he had very little to say, he said it, and did what was still better—he left. While he was speaking the audience became alarmed by a rumor that the building was falling, but it was soon ascertained that it was caused by a few flag stones in the passage giving way. Fortunately no soe wae injured, and soon after the meeting quietly spersed, The Condition of th eJews—Sermon by the Rev, D; N; West, on Ameliorating, The annual sermon which was to have been delivered last Sabbath before the American Soctety for amelior- ating the condition of the Jews, was preached yesterday evening by the Rey. D. N. West, at the Dutch Reformed Church on La‘ayette place, before a large and highly re- apectable congregation. Previous to the sermon the Rey. E R. McGregor read an abstract of the report, which is as follows:— The utmost harmony has characterized all tha pro- ceedings of the Board. God has blessed every depart- ment of their work with prosperity, The “past has been a year of tokens for good. Afllictions have been mingled with blessings. ‘wo members of the Board have departed to the immortal scene during the past ear, Mr. Marcus Wilbin and Rev. Philip Milledaler, D. D. the former wasan esteemed and active member of the Board of Directors and Committee up to the time of his decease. The latter was for many years P eatof the Society, end curing its darkest days sustained his posi tion with firmness, wisdom and dignity, und was an ac- tive promoter of its present polisy. In'their decease the society sustained irreparable loss. The external pros- perity of the socisty has been greater the past thun dur- ing ay former year. The whole amount of receipts into e treasury baye been about $13,26003. The follow’ statistics will show the ¢xternal pro js of the society during a few years past:— whole amount of receipts for 1840 was $8,221; 1850, $5,600; in 1851, $10,968; in 1862, 1,534 1863, $78,260'03. In their plans for raisiuy funds, the board have aimed to employ those men for this purpose who were also qualified for the missionary work, as far aa expediont. y the plan about the sume amount of missionary Jabor is performed as would be otherwise, and expensive agencies are avoided to a great oxtent. ‘It is gratifying to know, that althougy the donations to this cavse ore small, yet the numbeMf donors is very large. The gospel has been preached to the Jowish people throughout the United States daring the year more extensively than ever before.

Of the 0 converts mentioned, one is a missionary, two are colporteurs, two are students preparing for the missionary work, and one a missionary teacher. Of the 15,000 or more Jwafish con- yerts iu the world, about every one in €6 is a preacher of the gospel. The Board have had no foud appropriated for temporal selief ; but by other means eighteen prose lytes have been placed in circumstances where they are obtaining a comfortable livelihood. Other saissionary ¢florts abroxd in Europe have met, during the past year, with their usual success. There are very few obsta~ cles ip the way to preaching the gospel, distributing Bibles, books and tracts among the Jews in sny part of the world, enter upon their duties with nine aries, located in New York, Alban; ester and Buffalo, Cleveland, Baltimore, Nashville, New Orleans, Charleston, Savannah und Columbia, Hartford and New Haven.

A good prospect of success, in bringing Israelites toembrace the Christian religion, is before them.

Text, the 7th chapter o! the Gospel of St. Luke and the 10th verse, “Art thou he that shall come, or look we for another.” ‘The image, said the reverend gentlemen, is the repre: sentation of & person or a thing. It diferent somewhat from the portrait. An image includes an idea of the original of it being visible or invisible, Tt may be drawn fiom a living original or from the imaginstion. A portrait, on the contrary, is a picture from real lite, ineiuding the understanding that the original of the pleture was pre- aitwas drawn, On the other hand lity of the origina’ is included; ‘The new Board of Directors will visibility or invis! on the other hand, only the visibility, and this is the distinction betweea an image and a portrait. Our blessed Lord is styled in the scriptures the image of the Invisible God—the express imege of his person. Image worship, orithe use of images a+ aids of worship, is solemnly forbidden in the word of God, because no man can draw from bis —_ or imagination an exact and ade- quate resemblance of the person that he images. Hence, tw make Gad attempt to draw an image of the Invisible God upon the part of a preacher, must necessarily be pal- pable idolatry in the intention, and to use such an image as resembling the invisible God, must be real practical idolatry. Hence. images are said in Scripture to be the teachers of falsehood. It seems as if the Lord Jesus, in his pre-existant state, sat for his portrait to be taken by the Holy Ghost. The portrait drawa of Jesus Christ urder the name of Messiah, fits so exactly to the original reyealed in the New Testawent, that it seems that doubts are positively criminal if they should be entertained for a, moment with regard to the identity of tho original with the portrait. Even John the Baptist entertained doubt concerning the Messiah, and, although, whon Christ did come, and bore such a neat resemblance in 40 mauy points between the person claim- ing to be the Messiah and the deecription of that Mersiah in the old Testament, that be sent his disciples to ask lim the question; and Christ replied, “Go and tell John what you have seen and heard; let him compare the por- trait with the origioal no ¥ present, and let him draw his own conclurions.’’ They returned and told John what ey had heard and seer, and John’s doubts were removed ani he fully believed. Now he must bave been some judge of the character of the Messiah drawn cut in the Old Testament, John’s disciples, »ho were all Jows, must have had some judgment upon that question. First is as to Christ’s ad- vent. ‘Art thou he that -hail come?” One thing is un- cisputed here, for the expectation was general and uni- versal. The Gentile natiors had received news, and were under strong expectations that some illustrious personage would rice in Judea at that time. The mort pious and intelligent among the Jews were waiting the appoarance of him who was to be the light of the Gentiles and the glory of his people Isracl, All the world seemed to be alive with expectation at that time, ro that neither prior to that period ror since, bas any expectation in univer- Il eqnal to that which prevailed, ac a Legh ‘cononrrent testimony both ot Jew and heathen historian, as to the coming of the Messiah it t of Jesus Christ at that time created a atlas aad "yous ful excitement in tho public mind; they ex) eted him to come, and what mars would they for the Bane?

So other, for none other can come that will answer the por- trait better. For Mores, we have given to the Jewsour Tord Jesus Christ; for their covenant we have given them a better, and for their Jewish ordinances we lave iven them the gorpel and its services. For their priest. flood we have given them the ministers of a glorions goa- pel and we return ium the substance for the shadow, and call upon them to come to Jesus Christ, into that one christian fold under one gent.” — The Rey. Dr. Dx Wrrr then offered up propriate prayer, a collection was entered into, the doxology sung, and the congregation dispersed. Church of the Waldenses. Yesterday afternoon a large audience assembled at the Associate Presbyterian Church, in Charles treet, te listen to the Rev. Mr. Revel, Moderator of the Synod of the Waldenses. The Rey. Hugh H. Blair, the minister of this church, with a few introductory remarks, presented Mr. Revel to the audience, when he spoke as follows :— My Brethren—It is a circumstance most important for me, that I occupy this position at this moment—a cir- cumstance which constrains me to thank God that I am in this land. I am grateful to the pastor of this church, that he embraced the occasion for me to address the people of the church in which I stand now. And this kindness on his part gives me to believe that you will ind mein my imperfections, and particulart; my imperfection of Somer Ta a Some eee, my brethren, to represent the old@st Protestant church, The Church of the Waldenses is. small now, but betore the reformation it was very large. It ia very Sratifying to me, to contemplate the benefit from the spread g of the Bible through the earth, and it erefore gives me, vi eat pleasure to recollect that our church, the haven the Waldenses, three hundred years before the reformation, was engaged in spreading the Bible through France and Europe. As I attended the meeting of the Tract Society the other day, and saw the immense labors of such reformers, I could not refrain trom remembering, with feelings of pride and aatiataction, that before the reformation we were engaged in same good works; and I also cannot refrain from remembering, that, at the beginning of the reformation, it was our church which collected a very large sum of money for printing the first French Bible, which was published at home; I remember these facts, and state them to you, ‘ard to the world, to prove that our church was, and is, aod will be, an e ical ch: with the Help of God,’ will labor, as it has labored, to promote the truths of the Evangelists. But, my breth: ten, the Church of the Waldenses has not only aided the spreading of the Gospel by money, but she bas done so Ry ker blood. The church which I represent, was and is atilla very Uttle church, comparatively, and it appears tome that she has ben preserved by Providenca, to prove that God entrust his great principles to the keep- ing of the humble. Our church, for centuries, has been peprecuted. and oppressed, and banished; but still it haa lived and triumphed. jen we were persecuted and driven into Switzerland, the few numbers that arrived there were more like skeletons than men, and the church itself was buta skeleton. (The reverend representative here gave in detail the history of his church—their per- secutions their exile across the Alps into Switzerland, their sufferings, and their final declaration to conquer, or in their attoupt to regain their native land.) ‘The ene- mies of our church were very much ashamed that they, ao much greater in power, wealth and numbers than ourselves, could not restrain us from returning from exile, and re- establish the principles of our sect upon the land of our birth, The enemy hoped to be able to take and imprison, and finely bang all of our people; but the hand of God pointed the way to victory. In our combats with our cnemies, when they thought to be able to annihilate us, we were permitted to escape. The state of things in this way continued for the period of one hundred and si years—from 1691 to 1848, It is only for six years ihat we could enjoy liberty beyond our own limits of ter- ritory. During these one hundred and sixty years, we have been persecuted and oppressed very severely; ’b God preserved us from destruction, and now we are not only eabled to say that we exist, bat we are enabled to spread eur gospel over all tslte 1 cannot understand a how God would preserve so small a church as our own, unless it was for the purpose of promoting ous truths through Italy, It is very easy to believe that we are not rich, aud we have not any great panes to go forth to fight the battles of | the cross, and promote the teachings of the Evangelists, as other churches do in Europe and America. Bu we have done something. We have multiplied our school:, and now we have six churches in Italy. We have one in the very town where our greatest enemios once aa led to contrive our annihilation. Now, we have the ure of worshipping in that very town. Now, we jot only make our services public in France, but we can worship in Italian. We have missionaries im the most important provinces in Europe Soyou see we are ready to do anything we can to promote the advancement of the gospel in Italy ; but because we have not the means of doing go, is the reason why we are constrained to come to you for aid—and I hope you will remember, that if you enjoy liberty and affluence, you should do what you can, to fight the batties of God. If God calls us to suffer and lose our lives for his sake, we should be ready to do so. Are our lives and blood dearer than that of Christ? No. Yet, be gave there at the command of the Father. Thea how much more should we feel our- selves constrained to give our material support for the advancement of the church. It is this conviction that induces me to go forth, as the moderator of my chu: and it is this conviction t induces me to believe that shall not appeal to the American people in vain. At the conclusion of the remarks of Dr. Revel, the Rev. Mr. Blair made a very able and eloquent speech, eulo- gizing the church of the Waldenses, for their firm ad- herence to their faith, through age of utioa, and exorting his audience to contribute iiberally to ‘their cause.
