The annual meeting of the American Congregational Union was held im the Church of the Puritans, Union square, Wednesday, the exercizes commencing at 10 A. M. A large and attentive audience of ladies and gentlemen were present. The opening prayer was made by the Rev. Dr. Btone, of Boston, The Rev, }saso P. Laxcwormry read tho annual report, which did not specify the amount of reocipts or the ex- penditure of the society during the part yoar, but stated the objects of the organization. ‘The following is an abstract of It: The American Congregational Union was constituted May 11, 1653. It had'its origin in a deep feeling on the part of many of the friends of our churoh poiity, that the aloments of our own church might be developed by it. Less has beon done siuee our organization than was hoped for. in 1866 an effort was made t raise a fund of $20,000 to aid in erecting housos of worship for Congrega- tional churches in Kansas and Nobraska. This was pro- ected in response to most urgent applications from our yethren in these Territories. Some was male; and through the special efforts of personal friends of the cause about $3,000 hare been paid into our treasury. At this time the fearful and reprehensible wrongs of our government became so great and oppres- sive against our brethren in Kansas especially, as to ‘aatt-act the atention of the whole country, and the politisal ecnfiict in all the States became so sharp that in conse- queuce of doubts as to the issue in the former and absorp- tion of funde and interest iu the latter, aud the waut of a Secretary to dircet and superintend in this vork, the pro- recution of this object was suspended; and inaxmuch as a simultancous movement had been determined upon to raise a larger fund for church erections genernily, it bas not been resumed; and owing to tho disturbod sta of oar churches in Kansas for the last year, and the uncertain- ties ax to their future, the amount already received oa their behalf bas not Deen wholly appropriated. At ther regular monthly meeting in April, 1897, sppropriations were wade to the Congregational churches of Qouncil City, Waboura and Manhattan, in Kansas, and of Omaha City, in Nebraska, aod at their meet- ing in May to tho Congregational church in Quin- dara, ‘of Kansas, to the #um of $500, on conditions ealisfactory are given by each to the traa- wes tbat such niitionel cums baal be raised an will bo euficient to complete for cach a suitabie house of worship: free from debt. Other applications are now under con- sideration, and ‘iations will be made tothe full extent of the funds on hand. Libraries have been offered to fourteen churches in dif- forent States, and are Dow being made up and distributed on the fol conditions, viz:—That each church shall raise an equal amount to that given by the trustees, the whole to be expended under their direction for the par chase, at the lowest prices of standard religious and vlot- cal works, for the pastor. During the past year sixteen pew life members have been added to our society, making the whole number forty -three. The Rey. Dr. Sixvimxp delivered the discourse, afer reading the 46th Pealm, He said be was going to speak of the Congregational pulpit, which hae a history of two and & half centuries, not including that of the Apostles. He did not know whore to enter apon the subject, but thore was come little consolation in knowing that #ome men have entered into a subject and never been known to come out of it, though they were afterwards found alive and talk- ing upon other subject. Ithas been said that we gave too much atiention to the pulpit—to the didactic and ora- tory, not giving sufficient to prayer; but the pnipit is the cary Congregational Puibore. of "New.

A fow,and a very few, baye come into the pulpit without previous thonght and propa- ration, but some few have thus come into it, seizing tho impeke of the moment, spoke, they said, by inspiration, therefore assuming to be but @ litte below angels, when in reality tuey were but a little above asses, In many of the early fathers thero was great wit and humor, cape- cially in their private relations; for held down in public reaction v profesional gravity, thore was a aherwarde, which lef them’ to out ap masy.anclorical pranks.
