The Union, for the first time since the election, te-day devotes an article to New York politics. It counsels moderation and forbearance. This comes with a geod Dlackguardism of such men as Dickinson, Bronson, Chas. O’Conor, and other naticual democrats, merely because they preferred principles to spoils. The statement that Mr. Nicholson, editor of the Union, had publicly abused General Pierce last summer, excites a good deal of interest here, and it is to te hop:d Mr. Nicholson will either purge himself of the charge, or let the public know what has caused his change of opinion. M. THE UNION AND THE NEW YORK ELECTION. FROM THE REGULAR NEWSPAPER AGENT, Wasuinarox, Nev. 13, 1853. The Washington Union of this morning has some brief ommeuts on the result of the New York election. It yhinks {t should teach the democracy a lesson, and in- dulges the hope that wiser counsels may hereafter pre- in its ranks, It also says—“'We have neither regret nor joy to express in regard to the relative vote of the o tickets supported by the democrats. As far as nt indications point to the result, we suppose that the wo tickets received about an equal number of votes, Ve lock with much more concern to the best means for voiding so disastrous a defeat in future.” The America’s Mails.

Forney, Sanders,and Corry—The Union and the British Min‘ster—The Sentinel, Jerry Brown and George Law and his Steamships— Treaswy Surplus for Cuba and Mexico—New York Election—The Cabinet and Congress. Tam informed that there are certain blanks yet to be filled up in the history of the French mission: The facta are mysteries to me—they are perhaps bo- yond my reach; but I am told, however much they may surprice Mr. Bennett, they will be perfectly satisfactory to him in confirming to the public the unquestionable fact of his absolute ignorance of the whole business. As faras Mr. Sanders or Col. For- hey may have epoken to Gen. Pierce or any of the Cabinet in favor of Mr. Bennett for a European mis- sion, during the past summer, it may reasonably be accounted for. The Heraup had recommended San" ders, and that recommendation I presume had its influence in the matter of that London Consulate Worze appointments have been made. Forney, be- fore the Syracuse Democratic Convention, had made the incipient arrangements with Paul R. George and others for the establishment of a harmonizing ai. ministration organ in New York, and the men con- templsting this enterprise (capital $80,000) were no doutt desirous of conciliating the Heraup. There are reasons for everything. I think, however, the time has come when Forney, and all others charged with any agency in behalf of Mr. Bennett, should ex- plain it to the end of a full and fair understanding of the case. When the facts are all known it may perhaps eppear that a member of Congress or two, fully in the political and personal confidence of General Pierce, bad something to do with the recommenda- tion of Mr. Bennett, in a confidential way, for foreiga mission. There is nothing surprising in that. The only difficulties in the matter are, why the ap- pointment was not made—why the matter was kept so quiet till the Hxratp had taken up the Bronson side of the New York rebellion; and whg shen insti- ‘ERALD Was & disappointed applicant for the Freach mission. An inquiry upon these points would p:obably result in showing that the parties which operated against the inclinations of Gen. Pierce from the beginning were the identical parties who are responsible for the fiction concerning Mr. Bennett and the mission to France. I have reason to believe that General Pierce has never entertained any other than a desire to prove his grateful recollections of Mr. Bennett in conection with the Presidential campaign. J am not aware that Mr. Corry, of Ohio, de any fuss at the White House concerning the Hexap or the claims of Mr. Bennett upon the administration. His inclinations were certauly good. But, if lam not misteken, he was himself a candidate for Con- stantinople. He had travelled all over Europe; he had lived there long enough to learn something of European languages and European politics. He was a fast man—very fast—an ultra republican—dead ee Austria and Russia, and strong for interven- tion. But Marcy was tvo much for him, and he re- tired. He was here a good while, and once or twice, I think, in company with Sanders, he dined with the President. Perhaps on those occasions he may have said something for the Heratp. But he finally left for the West, for the East was not for him. Tais is, perhaps, to be regretted, for, at Constantinople, in the event of a general war, he would have opened up a fine field of employment for Mr. Dobbin and the navy in the Mediterrancan. The Union continues its diatribes against the British government on the Cuba question. The British Minister continues indignant; he has re- peetea his iy against this business to the mier; but as far as can be ascertained, the Premier has satisfied him that these articles in the Union are not by government authority, but that they are simply the views of the editor, which the government cannot assume to control. People dis- posed to take a narrow view of things susacct that one object of the Union is to take a popular stand | upon the Cnba question in view of the printing of Congress, Hon. Wiiliam J. Brown, of Indiana, it appears, has publicly charged, on the ovher hand, that George Low furnishes the sinews of war to the Sentinel. such were the fact, the only reasonable motive of Law is to fortify himself upon the question of steam- ship mail Fad eae Mec against which war will be declared in the coming Congress, and it may, per- haps, be foreshadowed in the Presideut’s message. But the Sentinel pleads not guilty, and Law is a cent-per-cent man in his fiscal operations. One thing I apprehend is pretty sure to happen— the reduction of the steamship appropriations, if not the absolute cancelling of most of the existing con- tracts, We have some thirty odd millions surplus in the treasury; but we shall require it to meet the ne- eget of Mr. Soule in Spain and of Gen. Gads- len in Mexico. The acquisition of the Mesilla valley and a strip of the open country weat of it to the Guif of California is inevi ee ay, peaceabla meaus if poa- sible, by force it we must. And the affairs of Earope ew in that shape to favor the policy of annexa- ion. It is smppoed among certain parties here at the West End that should the hards, or national dem2- crate, exhibit an aggregate majority over the Van Buren party in the late New York election, that Guthrie and Davis will resign, and especially shonld the M ippi election |t in the triumph of Gen. Foote, Which it is supposed isthe case. One ie is cite certain, that the vote of the Dickinson wing a8 surprised all parties in Washington, and the im- pression that it will tell decisively the organiza- tion of the House is very general. The ane of the New York Heraxp in this dreadful squabble from the very beginning is now fully appreciated, even by Secretary Gut himself. The House will be organized upon the basis of the national branch of the ic and it is quite porsible that the Cabinet will bow to the ac- tion of the House. Don Cantos. West Enp, Wasuinaton, Nov. 12, 1853. Trouble in the Wigwam—Visit of John Van Bu- ren and Heman J. Redfield—Mr. Spence anil the Saranac for Constantinople—The President and the Mormons and their Polygamy—Very Interesting—The Union on the Elections. John Van Buren and Heman J. Redfield are here. The election has been disastrous. The case is press- ing. No time to be lost. It is important that the New York free soilers should know how the land lies here just now. The Bronson party have taken Guthrie by surprise—they bave surprised everybody here. There isa sort of panic in the Cabinet; and if John can make the President feel easy he will do wonders. No doubt he will hatch up a cock-and-bull story to show that no damage is done; but I suspect that the Prince will go back witha flea in bis ear. Mr. Dobbin, though unable to drum up a steamer to carry ont Mr. Walker to China, hae found one to take Mr. Spence, our new Minister to Constantino ple. The steamsbip Saranac, about the best speci- men in the eervice, wiil set sail with him from folk,whither he has gone to put himself and his house- hold gods on board. The ¢ will be a valuable auxiliary for the time being,to our scanty naval force at the eastern end of the Mediterranean, and she has been detailed there Vein hoes that account. We trast that Mr. Dobbin will make such an expose of the miserable steamship failures of .the Navy Depart- ment for the last ten years, and the extravagant mil- lions that have been wasted upon them, as will lead to some substantial reforms by Congress. It will be impossible to add even the ‘dozen steamers to the service contemplated by Mr. Dobbin, unless some radical reductions are made in the cost of building them. Hight hundred thousand dollars for such an abortion as the Alleghany is @ fair sample of the ex- penses of steamship building, upon the experimental notions of our Naval Bureau of Construction. Mr. Dobbin promises to undertake a reform in this busi- ness, and we shall soon know how and to what ex- tent. The President, it is understood, will recommend only, ina general way, that tmperium in imperio, the kingdom of the Morzions, to the attention of Congress. Brigham Young, Governor and Cap- tain General of the United States Pai of Utah, appointed by President Fillmore, and re- ay pointed by President Pierce, under the laws of any other State or Territory in the Union would be clearly liable to an indefinite confinement in Phe penitentiary at hard labor. He has some thirty odd wives—a large omnibus load—and many of them are of the best looking and youngest of the daughters of the saints. He has several omai- bus loads of children—in fact, he is a small King Solomon in his way; and all his official subordinates in Church and State, to the extent of their means, follow example. common, ¢' 'y Mormons re allowed sevoq wives a piece, acd very few of them, capable of the loxury, have lesa than two, com- munity flourishes—they have made the desert to blorsom like the rose; and yet their whole politico- elon system of the Mosaic and Mormon combi- nations is utterly at war with the constitution and institutions of the United States, with the moradities of civilized society, and is an enigma and a stigma upon our ‘‘model republic.” Orson Pratt, a mission- ary from the Great Salt Lake, has spent most of the past summer here, in the publication of tracts ex- Bang and vindicating Mormon polygamy as a ible institution; and having closed up fis chapter with a series of instructions how to manage a Mor- mon harem, has gone to New York to enlighten the heathen in that quarter of the vineyard. Mr. Bernhi- sel, the Mormon delegate in the House of Representa- tives, a nice old gentleman, positively denied at the lost Congress that polygamy ‘was @ practical business at the Salt Lake City. Official topographical explora- tions, however, have since established its existence a9 the living fundamental law of the saints, in full blast. Their apostles admi* it; and Orson Pratt, in a series of tracts, published here in Washington, has, we re- peat defended it as an institution resting upon ‘a her law ”’ than the laws of this Union. ye can blink the nuisance, then, no longer. There itis. And if the President neglects specifically to inv ke the attention of Congress to the subject, there will ke found @ member or two in the House thot will sift the matter to the bottom. The New York Zribune thinks that Young and his colony of Saxon Turks should be let alone. There is a spice of socialism in the Mormon phalanx, which, though in direct hostility to ‘‘ woman's rights,” appears to please the Fourierite dle a amazingly. However, we shall have a lively discussion of this business during the ene session, whether the President shall recommend it or not. The Chris tian people of the United States, and even the Jews, demand that he should, at least, explain why he has appointed a man with thirty wives, occu- pying a whole row of adobe houses, Gov- ernor of the territory of Utah. Something is due to the opinions of the civilized world on this busiress,and the longer the question is postponed the more difficult will become its adjustment. It may be settled now in a peaceable way; but, in a few years, from the daily increasing strength of the Mormons by immigration, their polygamy can only be put down by a bloody war of extermination. he Union is gloritying over the success of the democrats in New Jersey. We hope the result there will be perfectly satisfactory to Master Guthrie. Don Caztos. Wasurnoton, Noy. 12, 1853. Highly Important Concerning Central America— Discovery of Coal Mines—Organization of an American Company for Working Them. T am informed, upon highly respectable au. thority, that very valuable mines of bituminous coal have been discovered in the dominions of the Mcsquito King—that equally rich mines have been discovered on the Pacific side in the same latitudes—that an American gentleman residing at Greytown has secured a grant of land from the Mosquito King and the State of Nicaragua, some fifty miles wide, and running a hundred and fifty miles into the interior, embracing the said coal mines, and that he has entered into an arrangement with a company in New York for the settlement of this tract by Americans, with a view to the workin; of the mines, for supplying the California and Gut steamers with coal. J am further advised that a member of this Amer- ican company, who holds a distinguished position in our government, has consulted Mr. Crampton in refer- ence to the settlement proposed, which itis designed to extend tothe mines on the Pacific side, and that he in bebalf of the British government, has signified that the work may go on—that the British govern- ment can have no objections to the pro) Ameri- can colony—that England does not desire the perma- nent occupation nor the protectorate of the Mosquito coast, butis willing to relinquish it to American en- terprive, provided such relinquishment is not at tempted to be gained under the Munroe doctrine. In other words, Evglaud is willing to relinquish the Mosquito coast to Yankee enterprise, for the sake of the supplies of coals which are promised, if the thing is undertaken in a friendly way. J om assured that there is no mistake concerning this business—none in relation tothe said coal mines —that they are rich, and that they have been snffi- ciently explored to spe here organization of a com- pany with a capital to begin with of a million of motey. If this should turn ous to be the case, it will give a tremend:us impetus to the inter-oveanic en- terprises across all the isthmus passages of Central America and Mexico. Canson. City Inte! nee.

Inanswer to this, we received in substance, on behal! of the Greana street school, the following statement :—Donations for the B’rai Jeshurun school were subscribed as early as Septemter, 1852. The school was opened in the basement of the Greene street Synagogue, on the 24 of January last, and en in operation ever since. On the 13th it was resolved to rear a building for this school only.

It having been announced that Dr. Vermileye, of the North Dutch Church, in William street, would yesterday afternoon preach the funeral sermon of John 8. Carman, who was recently killed at the great fire on the corner of Fulton and Nassau streets, a large audience—the friends of the lamented dead-- assembled, notwithstanding the unpleasant weather, The mejority of the audience were members of the fire department, to which class the sermon was par ticularly pertinent. The reverend preacher took for his text the 11th chapter of Jobn, 25th verse :— “ Jesus said unto her, I am the resusrection and the life; he that believeth in me, though he were dead» yet shall he live ”” The preacher spoke of the perils and dangers which beset a fireman’s life, andof the extreme ne- cessity of each being prepared at all times to enter the shadow of death. He very impressively alluded tothe honorable daring of our heroic firemen, and of their selfsacrifices for the public good. Regardless of self, and with no object in view but the safety of life and property, he rushed in amid erackling timbers and hissing flame, and too often fell a victim to his own generous impulses. In view of all this, he thought it particularly appropriate to call the attention of this class to the teachings and promises of the gospel. All should nurturs and cul- tivate a faith in the promises of Jesus Christ. It must be strong aud engrossing, and subject to no other feeling. This is the faith of Jesus Christ. This is the faith that every Christian must possess, or he is none of his. This is the faith which the men of old possessed who walked with God. He bas himeelf promised : “ He that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet he live shall.” What a glorious hope the gospel here places before us! and with this faith in Christ, with the knowledge that we shall live again, death cannot reach us, and it eek fates Death to ch &, one fe a boon to lesired. He may appear to entera , which for a moment] hides him from our ented from it he emerges at last into immortal paradise. How many ve died for many a nodle cause, to whose friends this faith has been the only solace! They have died on unknown plains; theirblood has moistened foreign soil; but though dead, they yet live—their names are bright in heaven. In the care of such a man, death it de- serves not to be called. Though they are lost from our view, is not that they do not live, any more than a friend who has departed ona long journey is not in the world, and we shall notsee himagain. Third- We our faith grows upon our belief. Who disbelieves the fact that we are to arise toimmortality? The Former of all things which we behold, bas he not in: deed united our souls with immortulity? Who shall asrert that God will not raise the dead? When we stand by the bedside of our friend, and witness his last gasp of mortality, shall we then say that we shall not see him again?—that he is gone, has been lost in endless night? Away, unbelievers, with such ideas. In mercy to poor mortality, in mercy to those who witbin this life of trouble, stay; leave to them their blessed Bible, and blessed hope of a better state in the resurrection of the just. Christ challenges our belief in this great truth of the resurrection. If there be no resurrection of the dead, then are all the pretentions of our Saviour idle; then is not Christ arisen, and our faith and our hopes are all in yain. And now, my brethren, do you credit Christ’s words? This faith is the great guide of mortals, and if heeded sincerely it infuses into us motives and desires to live foreternity. Ask your hearts earnestly and sincerely, do you believe this promise of the Gospel—that you “sre hastening to eternity, and that the grave does not hide and cover all? Do you manifest a proof of your fuith by a life corresponding with such belief? Let us ever remem- ber the glorious words of Christ: “I am the resur- rection and the life; he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.” All power is cast |-in this promire, and the qualities to exercise in ac- cordance with it, in faith and hope. We may refuse, we may be skeptical, but depend upon it, the hour is coming when every knee shall bow and every heart shall pray, These passages of the Bible give great consolation to those afiiicted, and there are those now before me who feel cousolaticn from the words? “Tam the resurrection and the life; be that be- tieveth in me, though he were dead, oe shall he live’ There is comfort for the child of God. Way should our friend fear todie? These are the lust words of the apostle’s faith: “I go to my Redeemer.”’ The particular occasion of this discourse is one of very mournful interest to those who hear me. You have come here to pay a tribute to one untimely cut down in the prime of life, and hurried to an untimely grave. A fire which lately occurred near here, carried two young men to an early tomb. One o! them was Jchn 8. Carman. There are in his case many mournful reflections. He was drawing near the end of his service in the Fire Department, and was about to retire from an honorable discharge of the onerousand perilous duties of a fireman's life. He had but just contracted a marriage with the wo- man of his early affections, and about three weeks before his death he was presented with his first born child. His partnerand himself were both looking forward toa brighter future, and both rejoiced in the hope of going down hand in hand into the vale of years. But while in the honorable discharge of his duties, he was snatched away by death. How impressing are the words, “In an hour when we think not, the Son of Man cometh!” There was no blemish on this young man’s character, and a bright future was opening before him. His hopes, and the hopes cf his young wife, aud the expectations of his friends, have all been crushed. What heart is there that does not sincerely sympathise wit) this afflicted widow, and offer their condolence? May God help her in this hour of trial, and lighten this burden which has fallen upon her. And let us all takea lesson from this circumstance—let us remember that the same anguish may be ours next, and let us so live that we may be prepared. I address these words toa class who will receive them as particularly pertinent. Ispeak to those who were friends of the departed, and who are daily beset with the same perils in the midst of which he died. The monument at Green- wood is rapidly pine up with the names of those who are carried to the grave in the same way that those were carried whom we come to day to mourn. My friends, hear the voize of Providence, and take heed. Who shall be the next victim, and how soon he shall be carried away, we cannot tell. Be ready, then; death never meets you but at the grave. Live in the faith of Jesus Christ, so that when death does come, you will be able to say, ‘‘ I have waited for thy salvation, 0, God.’ Ceremony of Installation. SERMON BY REV, DR. HUTTON. ‘The installation of Rev. Theedore Cuyler, as pastor of the Market street Reformed Dateh Church took place last evening, under the direction of the committee appointed by the South Classis of New York. Notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather the church was crowded to its utmost extent, and the occasion war a most inter- esting and impressive one. exercises were opened with singiug by the choir, after which prayer was offered up. The installation ser- mon was then preached by Rey Dr. Hutton, who took his text frrm Second Timothy, 4th chapter, 24 verre :— “Preach the word ; be instant in season and oat of sea- son; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suifering and doctrine."’ The foMowing iss brief aynopsia of the Rev, gentleman's remarks —There is no other way but that furnishei by the Gospel by which we can ob tain everlasting life. Im the Gospel may be found light for those who sit in darkness, and , pa oly don for those who have transgressed God's law. Init may be found hepe for the dying, comfort for the sfllicted—in one word, the true enjoyments of this earthly life, and the pure enjoyments of the life beyond the grave. The Gospel gives us God. With this Gospel we are rich beyond expreasion—without it, w@ are poor, miserable, undone To point the way to Kternal life is the true province of a minister of ia. If the minister of the Gospel can perruade a sinner to desert the world and fly to the only refuge, he confers upon him the greatest possible good, making him rich bayond expres- sion, ard at the same time fulfils his own holy mission, The tiret preacher of the ie Word was the Lord Jesus Christ. He had a perfect understanding of his theme, for in him were gathered the treasures of wisdom and knowledge from the Godhead. He alone was able to pre sent the Word in all its truth an}purity. He could telt them of the way of life, for he himself was the way and the life. He could tell them of the jogs of Heaven, for he had come from there; and of the miseries cf hel), for his mission wae to save mankind from its horrors. His doc- triner and life were in entire harmony. But now that he has departed, who are his appropriate successors’ On whom shall the burden fal ere ia the Klish s whois competent to arsume his mantle. Who has been employed for the reaching of his Word? Men, sinful weak men. He has Peolared that all things shoul work together for his power and glory, and he wishes to reserve that for him self. It has pleased Him to depute his authority to earth- en vessels, who have notling in themeelves but what they derive from him. Ministers of the Gospel are but earthen vessels, as to their powers of convincing, an to their ability to interest, and as to their human frailties hey Lphanrnn Eg Boe a ae juired of a aon ‘are expec an thoug! ‘themselves were not freil mortals like their eeees aus liable to the eame temptations, If God saw dt to employ menas his chcren instruments for the apread of His Wo.4, he must employ them as they are, The bearers of the good tid- 'ngs thould renowwee all world y ambition, and ail confi- dence in their own merits, relying solely upo® the merits of their Saviour. They should 10 nothin ¥ for their own glory, keeping slways in mind that the ho®or of success should be aseribed to God alone. For t.'is great purpose were the Apovtles selected. They wei¥ iaen— ignorant common artisans aud fishermen—nothi without the overruling spirit of the Father. Withou eloquence and without art, despised and persecuted by all, these earthen vessels trumped, in the name of God, over the whole earth. Great and mall, learned and ignorant, all came under their infuence, ani whole provinces pre- sente: themselves at the feet of Christ, and were brought into obedience to his religion. So it was with the Re- formers. The poor monk Luther was ths chosen instra ment in the hands of God for the reformation of a cor. ruyt church. Wherever the truth’ may be preached, and by whomeoever it may be advanced, however ignorant he may be, it should be remembered that it is God’s truth, and as such it should be received with all becoming re- spect. The mivister has a right to cemand the attention of his congregstion, if ho xpeak the Gospel, whatever may be the manner of his delivery. If the hearer is to be converted, the praise is due, not to the preacher, but to God alone: However elegant may be his age, and permasive his eloquence, the success of his ministry will found only at the foot of the cross. At the conclusion of the sermon, the charge was deliv- ered by Rev. Mr. Macaulay, after which followed the cere- mony of the imposition of ‘hands, and the pastor was de: clared duly installed. Tae large congregation then dix- persed, after the usual exercises, Missionary Ordination. RELIGIOUS CEREMONIES IN THE SPRING STREET PRES- BYTARIAN CHURCH. The members of the Spring street Preabyterian Church assembled last evening to witness the ordination of Messi H. W. Pierson and H. P. Herrick, before the ceparture of the latter for the Gaboon mission in West ACiica. The ceremories being of an unusually interesting character, they were attended by a large number of the congrega- tion, Services were commenced with prayer by Rov, Mr. Campbell, pastor of the Church; after which the choir sang the hymn 837, commencing with the words “Stand up, my sou, shake off thy fears.” At the conclusion of this, Rev. George A. Thatcher delivered a sermon, taking his text from the Bool of Judges, Sth chapter, and 25 verse, as follows:—' Curse ye Meroz, (said the angel of the Lord.) curre ye bitterly the inhabitants thereof because they come'not to the help of the Lord against the mighty.” The reverend gentleman commenced by inati- tuting a comparison between the circumstances which his toxt described, and the war which truth is always wagirg against error. Our first inquiry, said he. relates to the nature of tho contest God ia carry- ing on in the world. We must first consider that the end God bas in view is two fold—the eternal salvation of man and ‘he establishment of a kingdom of holiness and truth Our race, he continued. has been ruined by sin, iniquity and error, which have held almost universal dominion over the ‘world, and have built up a kingvom for the Prince of Darkness, in bold defiance of the author’ ty of heaven, For wise but inscrutable reasons God ha allowed this to exist. but is meanwhile preparing for his enemies a more terrible destruction. At the beginning of human apostacy God ecmmenced a system of operas ticns for the purpose of effecting the everlasting redomp. tion of as many as possible of mankind. He could a5t aurrender this vast fabric of intelligent beings to error and eternal punishment; for this reason he has set at work cer‘ain influences ‘whose tendency {s to counteract the power of wickednors, and has issued his mandate to the children of man to unite with him ia the overthrow of the kingdom of Satan, He has asserte! the claims of truth, and his determiaation to suppress evil; he has set up @ kingdom of purity and leve in oppo- sition to one of malevolence and iniquity; he has declared war against false doctrine and every form of vice. The contest which he is carrying on is a spirital contest for the ascerdanoy of the rzht and the salvation of man; the weapons which he uses are not cxrnal, but those of truth. There sre, however, differences in tho Church and in the world, but. those ouly prove how deadly {s the opposition men feel to the claims of truth, Sometimen the children of God have been guilty of excesses, and have resorted to violence to make converts to righteous. ness. Zeal has in too many instances degenerated into fanaticism, and the progress of the work of God has been checked, s not in accordance with his com- mands. He said: “Yeu shall beat your swords into p'ough shares, and your spears into pruning hooks,” for the war which be is waging is of a. spiritual nature : iis a contest of mind with mind, of heart with heart, of argument with argument, and the elements em- ployed are purely of amoral character, Bat ths forces at war are not tho loss bitter, and the call for help none the less pressing and imperious: ‘The angel of Truth will help the children of God with a host of attending spirits, clothed with the pure robes of heavenly ght, to oppose the subtle flend of error, with bis thousand’ swarming impe, In thiswar we betld wild, warm-hearted benevo- Tence putting to flight selfishness’ and co'dness of heart ; goodness, with her heavenly miaa, boldly confronting the grim gaunt form of depravity. The Daughter of Zion, the Church of God, is in conflict with the world—the vain, Hinful, impenitent, grovelling world, ‘The followers of ths Lamb’are fightiog under the captain of their salvation against the wretched voteries of sin, not to slay and Grstroy, but to convert ard save then. One of the principal ways by which it is to be done, {s through the practico of the commanis of God, and by conformirg our actions with his holy precepts—by dit- furing general intelligence throughout the world, by re- forming the morals of maspkind, by convincing men of the folly of sin in a temporal respect, and ia a thousaud other vays, ‘The reverend gevtlemen continued at greater length on this part of his subject, and concluded by exhorting his hearers to lend their ‘aid and influence on the side of truth, in the contest between it and error. When he resumed his seat, the pastor of the church came forward, and calling upon Messrs, Plerson and Hor. rick by name, informed them that they would now be ordained. These gentlemen then approached the sanc- tuary and knelt down before the Rey. Sir. Campbell, who performed the ceremony of ordination. Tho reverend Zentleman arked the following questions :—~ Do you believe the Soriptures of the Old and Now Tosta- by de to be the word of God—the only infallible rule of faith nd practice ? “Da yon tincorely recoive and adopt the confessicn of faith of this chure», 23 containing the system of doctrine taught in the Holy Scriptures * Do you approve of the government and discipline of the Presb) terian Church in these United Sta!

Have you been induced, as fe you know your own heart, to seek the office of the holy try from love to ¢ a sincere desire to promote bis gi in the Gospel of : Do you promis to bo zealous and faithful in maintaining the traths of tuo Gospel, and the purity and peace of the ehurch, whatever persecution or epposition may arise unto you on'that account? Do you engage to be faithful and diligent in the exersise of vate and pereonal duties, which become you as a Chris- id a minister of the Gospel, wollas in all relative sand the public dutics of your otlico, endeavoring to adern'the profession of the Gospel. by your conversation, and walking with exem} ty piety before the flock over which God thall make you overseer! ‘To these questions each of the candidates replied, “Tao” The presiding minister then holding his hands over them in a solemn manner, made a prayer appropriate to the occasion. This concluded the ceremony of otdina- tion. A charge was then made to the newly ordained candidates by the Rev. G. W. Wool, Secreta'y of the A. B,C. F.M, explaining the nature of the duties which they would have to perform, and the great responsibilities which rested upon them. ‘The right hand of fellowship was extended tu them afterwards by Dr. Anderson, nao- ther secrotasy of the same seciety, after which the choir sang the 639th yma, closed the ceremonies, and the congregation then dispersed.

At least ove hour of that time was lost in fogs and running slow. The Saranac is ove of the finest looking vessels in the e has an excellent set of officers and an order!

At the Howard Athenwum, Boston, Miss Davenport has brought out her adaptation of “Camillo.” The Journa saya It was kighly successful, and reflects great credit om Mits Davenport, as well as the Howard Atheneum, by the manner in which it was presented. It created the great- est enthusiasm and engaged the most strict attention of the large and fashionable audieace, who gave her @ spontaneous call at the end of the fourth act and at the close of the picce. It exceeds in interest any othor play Miss Davesport appeara in, and her actiog exceeds im merit even her Adrienne. At the Thestre Lyrique, Paris, they have produced “Le Bijou Perda ;’ music by A.

She is a lady who, to an excellent soprane voice, rather thin in quality and highly fini:hed execa- tion, adds the rare qualifications of a sprightly and graceful actress, The time of the opera is that of Louis XV.—the scene, Versailles. The heroine of the opera, Mle. Toinon, is a pretty flower girl, whose charms have committed terrib’e havoc among the young gardeners of the vicinity—to one of whom, by name Pacome, she has given her heart and ised her band. But, to the ful- biment of this promise, numerous obstacles arise ; these obstacles supplying the incidents of the opera, which the author hes worked up into an amusing imbroglio. We soon find that the conquests of the fair Toinon have extended to the court, and that among her professed admirers is the Marquis d’Angennes, s well known roue of the day. His parsion, h r, is merely assumed for the purpose of concealiny iason which exists bet ween him and Mme.Coc- quiliard, the wife ofa particular friond and fellow-roue—ne tmall part of the piquancy of ihe piece arising from this unlucky pecul ‘arity in his position being knowa to the dience; while poor M.
