Convention of -the Soatheast(rn Indiana V Conference at Greensburg, on the 21st, was largely attended. The proceedings were harmonious and entertaining. We give up most of the space usually alloted to the Methodist Church, this morning, to a tribute of respect to the late Prof. Hoyt, of Asbury University, by one of his students. . Communicated. THE LATE PROFESSOR HOYT. A valuable workman has fallen and the cause of education and the church may well mourn the loss. - Benjamin T. Hoyt, late Professor of Belles Litres at Asbury University, was born in the city of Boston, educated at the Wesleyan University of Connecticut, and sought Indiana as a field of labor, where he lived till a protracted fever took him away. Professor Hoyt was the son of an eastern divine, who. it seems, enjoyed some reputation, but who was unable to afford his children .jnuch financial assistance; but the )' Professor attended college at his own j expense, and by careful thought and ' diligent labor, obtained an education ' which made him a useful man and gave mm trie enviaDie title oi a sciioli ar. His mind was not of a lou-irnl character, rather inclined to be broad and comprehensive, with a decided taste for the poetical. Asa literary character, few men of Indiana enjoyed a better reputation. His compositions ? were iar above those or a common i mind. A voice, peculiarly fitted for ' oratory, and a soul to mean what he said, together with natural grace and elegant culture, made him a model lecturer. He drew audiences despite rain and storm, when he spoke. , He was announced " to have lectured in our city a few weeks since, but death left the lecture undelivered. Noted as a scholar, he was still more remarkable as an instructor. Our State has had iew more successful educators. Armed with fine executive ability, he had a magic power over his classes, that made them blush to appear .in his recitation-room ignorant of their lessons. He loved good students, and made little effort to conceal his preference for such ; he had scarcely patience enough with sluggishness and laziness. The Professor was dignified in appearance, gentlemanly in conduct, and social in disposition. His sensibilities were exceedingly large and tender; but he wore a cloak of formal dignity which kept the world at large away ir j j rj i r : irom mm, auu auuimeu uuiy a jew, , comparatively, to the favor of intimate friendship. In these days of Sunday Schools, the tact for conductins: them is not considered a weakness. Professor Hoyt was the acknowledged chief of Sunday School Superintendents. He had in his mind the model of a perfect school, and the ability to make real his ideal. The death of Professor Hoyt leaves a vacancy in the University which it will be difficult to fill. The Trustees have too much good sense to call a common man, and first-class educators are in demand. Professor Hoyt was a man who filled up a large measure of influence, and he will be missed by many, now he has gone. The College has lost a faithful teacher, the Sunday School a kind shepherd, the Ch urc-h a - warm J me m ber, th e S.ta te a , good citizen, and the world a useful worVean. , Jota." V UNITARIAN,.,, There will f be Liberal Christian worship at the Court House to-morrow morning at the usual hour. Subject of Sefmon: "Growth into the Father's Perfections." ' ' ' Liberal Christian societies hue been formed at Ashtabula and Pasiusville, Ohio. " Rev. Frederick Frothingham, of Brattleboro, Vt., has been invited to succeed Dr.Hosuier at Buffalo. . Rev. C. A. Staples, of Milwaukee, is to join the exodus of Unitarian clergymen' to Europe this Summer.

A Conference of Unitarian and other Christian Churches was recently-organised at Providence', R. I., consisting of Churches in Rhode Island and Bristol County, Mass. Gov. A. E. Burnside is the President. """Rev. XJeo: Hepworthi3to""deliver the Fourth of July oration in Boston this Summer. The editor of the Liberal Christian notices the change in the Independent, and welcomes its accession to the Liberal cause. It says;," It affords another illustration of the growth ot that unsectarian, liberal, Christian spirit in our community which is destined to break down all the old sectarian barriers, and bring i '411 truly Christian souls, of whatever name and faith, into active fellowship and communion. The ladeipettdentlhas done a noble work in liberalizing and educating the public sentiment of the country, and we shall look to it cwith more interest, and hope now it has slipped its old anchor and, sails the open sea." - ' - 1 ' i ' 1 !' Mr. Henry C. Durant, the Boston lawver. formerly a partner, with Ruf us I Choate, who "has' lately: left' the" bay! for the pulpit, went to hear ltev. Air. Snaulding, Universalist, preach, a few Sunday ..since, in. Salenv'Massfe He was so much pleased with the preacher and preaching that he accepted Mr. Spaulding's invitation to occupy the pulpit in the afternoon. Rev. James F. Clarke has replied to the attacks of Zion's Herald upon Ex-Governor Andrew.for his defence, of a lieetwe rather than a prohibitory temperance law. i ' 1 H U;-'. 'ill! A meeting of the friends of Free Religion, represented by . undenominational Unitarians aml.Universalists, the Progressive ' Friends,' the Liberal Jews, and Spiritualists, is called for this week, in , Boston, to consider the conditions, wants and prospects of free religion in America. Addresses are expected from 1U W. Emerson, Lucretia Mott, Robert Dale .Owen, O. B.' Frothingham and others. The Unitarians of Cleveland have secured ; a site '' on Euclid Avenue for a Church edifice and selected a plan for it. It will have a very fine front, and contain about four hundred sittings, and cost $25,000. Wm. Furness, son of Dr. Furness, of Philadelphia, an artist of considerable reputation, recently died in Boston. Rev. Edwin M.

The annual Convention of the Diocese will be held at Indianapolis on Wednesday and Thursday of; next week. The Convention will open with Divine service on Wednesday morning and Administration of "the-Lord's ' SupperT" The' ReVi Hr W. Spalding -will "preaen-the-Convention sermon. The delegates from this parish are Dr. D, C. Keller, Morris S. Johnson, Esq.,1 and Mr. Edward Tabor. The " golden wedding " of the venerable Bishop of the Diocese, Rt. Rev. George Upfold, D.D., LL.D., will take place on Monday evening, June 3d. - No doubt many, of his numerous friends throughout the Diocese will be present, and that all will remember him, both with their prayers for his health and welfare, and some tribute of their appreciation of his long and arduous service in behalf of Christ and His Church. The occasion of the Convention will also have its interest further increased by the laying, on Thursday, of the corner-stone of St. Paul's Cathedral, which is to be built. by the Parish of the Rev. Mr. String-, fellow, and is the result of his indetatiguable labors and personal qualifications for his work, so that, , on the whole, the coming week will be one long to be remembered by those who shall attend the Convention at Indianapolis. i? I Indiana. On the first Sunday after Easter, April 28th, the Rector of Christ Church, Madison, presented to Bishop Talbot, sixteen candidates for Confirmation ten males and six females. Kentucky. The Bishop of the Diocese visited the new parish of the Good Shepherd, Lawrenceberg, on the morning of the third Suuday after Easter; preached and cor.firmed even persons. This is most eueourHging evidence of the zeal with which the young missionary at this station has prosecuted his work. In the afternoon, while Mr. Scearse

The; Cumberland .Preebyttrian As sembly appointed a Committee of Conference with the. School Church, with a-'viw'to a,5re union with that branch of the Presbyterian familyr r The General Synod of the Reformed Presbyterian Church has also passed a resolution favoring a union of all Presbyterian bodies, and for maturing this plan has called a General Presbyterian convention, to meet this fall. We think that the churches will read with satisfaction the deliverances of this Assembly, (New School.) They are wise and earnest. Oa Reunion, on Sabbath Schools, on Missions, Home and Foreign, on Education, and on Publication, the voice of the Assembly will find an echo in the heart of the Church, and will arouse it to new hopefulness and zeal. The Old School Church disposed of the case of the Declaration and Testimony men on Friday evening. The report of the Committee of Ten,drawn by Dr. Stanton, was passed almost unanimously, only four votes against it. It is an excellent compromise, and we presume all the exscinded declarers and testifiers who could ever be of any-Bervice in-a doyal Gllurch, will come back under its liberal prolyisions. As to reunion, the other .exciting topic ot this Assembly, two reports are 1 before ' the Assembly. The majority report is substantially the same as . that adopted, by our Assembly at Rochester. It will be adopted. But such men as R. J. Breckinridge will oppose it. Cincinnati Christian Herald. Change of Time and Place. Elder J. B.
