His Col legiate course is completed, and he now commences his Theological studies at the Theological Seminary, Salem, Virginia. Iu this connection will you permit me, friends, to call your attention to a fact of which all present may not lie aware. Mr. Emannef Wiugard is a grandson of Mr. Henry Muller, of Sandy Ruu, South Carolina ; that devoted sou of the Lutheran Church who was called to his rest and reward many years ago. Among Mr. Henry Mailer’s numerous contributions to the church of the Reformation at the South, we find a record in 1848 of a donation of $4,000 to the Seminary, theu located at Lexiugtou, South Carolina. The church has embalmed the memory of Henry Muller, and delights to pro serve the record of his liberality. To the Sunday School and the Ladies Missionary Society, of St. John’s Church, has been granted the pre cious privilege of contributing to the support of one of his descendants, who will, ere long, we trust be set apart to the Gospel Ministry. Wo give thanks to onr lleareuly Father that this Society has not lost by death a single member during th? past year. We have 12$ names on our rolL Though the average at tendance at our meetings has beeu small, devoted, faithful laborers haw uot been wanting. Onr Saviour Jesns Christ, during his personal ministry on earth, per mitted women to miuister to him of their substauce.

The Sunday- school has from 30 to 35 children. Wilmington, X. C.—An immeuse crowd assembled at the Lutheran church last night to witness a double wedding. The happy parties were Mr. W. J. Bnhuian, who led to the altar Miss Catherine M. Gerken, and Mr. W. II. Gerken, who led to the altar Miss Mary E. keen. The beautiful and impressive eerimo- ny was performed by Jlevl G.*Tf.

The Kireken zeitung remarks : This shows how in consistent and fanatical persons usually are, who withdraw from the Lutheran Church. The Prieeft Wife—The Woman that Married Father Hyacinthr.—Mrs. Emelie J. Merriiuan, who has mar ried Pere Ilyacinthe, in London, will be remembered by many persons in New York and Brooklyn as one who has led a very eventful life. She was separated from her husband some years before his death, sold a small bouse and a couple of lots iu Brooklyu, which he had deeded to her, ami with her daughter, to travel abroad, acting as ageut for a “pat ent” corset, and endeavoring to act as correspondent to papers, in which last she was not suocessfal. Mrs. Merritnan was converted .to Romanism while on the trip. After her husband's death she returned to New York iu order to obtain the mouey for an insurance upon his life, which he had presented to her dur ing their early married life, and which aim bad kept paid up while abroad. While here she became re converted to Protestantism, under the ministration of Rev. Joseph Thompson!, of the Church of the Tabernacle; but finally left New York and went back to Paris, where Pere Hyaoiuthe converted her bock again to Romanism, and was con varied by her to matrimony. Sad.—A vestryman, in a fashion able New York church, has resigned his position, sold his pew, and left the congregregntion, because his fellow vestrymen refused to sanction his engagement el two “negro min strep singers for the choir. Ilaptiet.—It is rumored that at a meeting of the Baptist Association, which is to take place in a few days on Ixmg Island, Revs. J. Hyatt Smith and George F. Pantecost, of Brooklyn, will be put on trial for their radicalism on the subject of * open communion. Smith's views 1 Sbeoley, have caused a great deal of interest J " among the candidates.

And is not profligacy al ready unbridled within thy walls! But profligacy is always the forerun ner of great changes. It has de stroyed .empires, and. thrown down the most solid w r alls. It results in the debility of the noblest powers, idleness, sensual slavery, poverty in the midst of extravagauce, and it respects nothing. Where the re ligions foundation is wanting, every thing is. built on sand, and history tells again and again of the terrible results which follow from the decay of faith, and purity of life. There fore, consider the things, which be long to thy peace.” For Berlin read : U. S. A. Jesuits not Welcome.—The Munici pal Council'Of Diekirch, in Luxem burg, has refused permission to the exiled Jesuits from Germany to settle in that town, and has exhorted the other towns of the Grand Duchy to adopt a similar policy, as to harbor the Jesnits must inevitably involve them in troubles with Ger many. Deceased.—The uoted aipl learned bishop, Nicholas Frederick Scverin Grundtvig, died at Copenhagen, Denmark, the evening of the 2d of September, at the advanced age of eighty-nine years. Bishop Grundt vig was a great and learned man, but was not considered an orthodox Lutheran. He taught the Divine inspiration of the Apostles’ Creed. SCRAPS. A church had been built In a certain neighborhood in this State and a steeple had been erected thereon. The memlwrs wanted to get some tableau to pay expenses, &<\ An unsophisticated brother said, with mooh earnestness, “Yon have al ready I nut a steeple ou one end of the church, ami now you want to pat a tableau on the other. I am not in favor of it, and will not give one cent towards it!” A jierson once said to his minister, Rev. Mr. O., that it wa« impossible for a man to carry on business in this imperfect world, and be honest, and get a living. “Die, then ;” was the emphatic reply. It is well known that a late Bishop of New Jersy was not a very ardent advocate of temperance. So far was he froirt that, that his sideboard was commonly well supplied with choice liquors. On one occasion, as the story runs, a minister dined with the bishop, whose principles were of a stricter quality. Pouring out a glass of wine, the bishop desired him to drink with him : “Can’t do it Bishop. Wine is a mocker.” “Take a glass of brandy, theu.” “Cant doit, Bishop. ‘Strong drink is raging.’ >’ By this time, the Bishop, becom ing somewhat excited, remarked to Mr. Perkins: “You’ll pass the de canter to tho gentleman next to you t” “No Bishop, I can’t do that. ‘Woe unto him that pntteth the bottle to his neighbor’s lips.’ ” What happened next we are uot informed. We presume Mr. Perkins went elsewhere for his morrow’s din ner. ) r# >y|j % A remarkable philological contro versy recently occurred in Wales, between Mr. Rosser and Mr. Morgan Evans, as to the true way of spelling the name of the village of Llyyggff- wwdvanr.

Tongue can not describe my suffering. I was reduced almost to a skeleton, and had a perfect loathing of food. I was attended by several physi cians, who rendered me no relief. I de spaired of ever being well again, bnt thanka to a kind Providence I incident ally heard of your medicine. I sent for half a dozen bottles, and before I had taken three I began to feel better, my Appetite improved, and the rheumatic pains became less severe, and I could enjoy sleep. I have continued its use and have taken eleven bottles, and be lieve I gnv a sound man again. The ul cers have all healed, my skin is smooth and healthy, and I have gained 22 pounds in weight.
