a ehurch was , a few weeks since / dedica' - ted to the Worship of one God , fcverithe Father . In Baltimore , a pastor baa been happily ordained , who will watch over ! the flock of the Lord Jesus , that have so long been without an earthly shepherd . In Philadelphia , the Unitarian society has sd increased , that the erection of anew church has become necessary , and has been commenced . In New York , a
mimster has been invited to take charge of the Second Congregational Church , whose labours , we have every reason to believe , will be abundantly prospered . In this city also , Unitarian Christianity retains its strength , A new society has recently been gathered ; and the former churches , which embrace the doctrines signified by this name , were uever more firm in their adherence to the great principles of Christianity , nor more prosperous in their condition .
Among the means by which true religion , in theory and practice , is disseminated , few are more efficacious than periodical publications . Of these , four have ' Within the last year been commenced , which merit notice and patrouage : The Unitarian Advocate , and the
Christian Teacher ' s Manual , published in Boston , each , in its own department , fitted to be very useful ; the Liberal Preacher , from Keene , ( NewHampshire , ) particularly valuable for its practical character ; and the Unitarian , three or four numbers of which have appeared in New York . • «
The Committee have also noticed with pleasure , during the last year , attempts to make the English reader better acquainted with the true character of the Scriptures . Two editions of the New Testament have been issued , one coutaining a reprint of the common version , without the arbitrary division into
chapters and verses ; the other presenting the common version , with those alterations only which were necessary to make it conform to Griesbach's edition of the Greek text , and an amended punctuation . Anew version of the book of Job ; has also been given to the public ; which ^ it is hoped , wUl be folloiyed by other Us
successful attempts' to exhibit i the ^ jeaning of the Old Testament . These aue indeed but the first steps towards what -we deem a most desirable result , a now translation of the Wh&e tiible ; but they inspire confidence that this result will ere long be reached . . ji » « j < .
