Pastern cities.
thus, dear reader, we hare located
in, and now patiently listen to what
«t are going to say about the eccle
nuttcai affairs of which we have
kid something to do u ainoe last
fsnksgiving day,” when we set foot
on—nut the soil—but coal dust and
diadem of Piedmont, a total stranger
,|ieverybody iu the place, having no
ksswisdge of the place, except that
there were abont forty Lutherans
teie fho wanted a pastor. We
Umsme that pastor, and tutored upon
«r duties. Having used the Pres
bytermn chnrch every alternate Sun
% previously, we moved our place
«f worship to the school building.
Shoo came the rob. The Sunday
school had been conducted in the
afternoon, and uow it most be
changed to the forenoon, and it
ms deemed best to make it dmtimetlp
Uthcran, we did and commenced
with twenty-one, all told ! Now we
fore more than three time* that
somber, and it meets tbe same boor
the other schools do. It took per-
severance and faith to do it though.
Still we all labored for it and did it.
We made the point self sustaining,
uad it oontiuued so until the R. It.
company (on whom wo depend) dis
charged and reduced tbe wage* of
the members, sod run the commercial
interest a of the towu so low that the
P&os can scarcely live. Still it Uvsfe.
We have asked no aid. Why I Be
caoae in looking around over the ter
ritory of W. Va. Synod, we saw other
|4aces of more importance than Ibis
te dispense means. As this in a
transient point, to-day we may have
* good congregation and to morrow
it is gone. One month finds all the
men engaged on the railroad or unities,
*ih1 the next they are discharged or
wages cut down, like in the present
instance, so they can scarcely live,
hence they leave for other (daces.
Again, there is uo agricultural dis
iriot around this place to support ft,
depending principally upon Balti
more, 200 miles distant, for pro via
ioua. With sack noble undertakings
as Richmond, Va>, Charleston, W.
Va., and other points before ns, we
conUl not work our conscience up to
the point of asking the V*. Synod to
sid us, and we don’t intend to, not
for this place. Some other body
«mld take hold of this poiut, who
would sot miss a few hundreds and
do well with it. But with such a
place as Riehmoud in her territory,
wo say look to that first. Work in
the cities first, build up there and
let that influence disseminate itself
throughout tbe country. It has
1*00*1 the deplorable fault in by-gone
