RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE.
Pastoral Letter of the Southern Bishops.
By far the most creditable public document of a
religious or denominational character that has yet
emanated from any branch of the Church in the so
called Southern Confederacy, is the Pastoral Letter
of the Bishops of the Episcopal Churoh, who re
cently held their General Convention at Augusta,
Georgia. The "Letter' is marked with ability,
singular good temper for the section from which it
comes, and, upon the whole, a degree of candor
that demands respect. Its most remarkable feature,
however, is the confession made in it with regard to
the false and unchristian position which they have
heretofore maintained on the subject of slavery.
It is true their defence, that they "have hitherto
been hindered in their work of justice and mercy
to the slave by the pressure of Abolitionism," is a
little awkward, still this weak retort can be cheer
fully overlooked in view of the fruits which this
pressure has evidently developed. The ground taken
in the letter, that God may, "by these inscrutable
measures," (the blockade and the pressure of the free
North upon their institution,) be shutting them up
to the great work of instructing and elevating the
negroes, is a held and manly confession, as are, also
the solemn declarations that "the time has come
when the Church should repudiate the fallacy that
the slaves of the South arc merely so much property,
and that there is much in their system that is incon
sistent with the duties of Christians and that ought
to be annulled."
But we will let the Bishops speak for themselves
in the following extract, upon the great crime of
which they have at last been convicted :
"Voices of supplication come to ua also from the
distant shores of Africa and the East, but only their
echo reaches us from the throne of grace. The po
licy of man has shut out those utterances from us.
How can it help their cause to separate the children
of God from one nnotherl He only knows ; but we
can hear them when we kneel in prayer, and com
mune with their spirits through the Spirit of Christ.
But God is perchance intending,through these inscru
table men sures,to shut us up to that great work which
He has placed at our very doors, and which is, next
to her own expansion, the Church's greatest work tu
these Confederate States. The religious instruction
of the negroes has been thrust upon us in such a
wonderful manner that we must be blind not to per
ceive that not only our spiritual but our national
life is wrapped up in their welfare. With them we
stand or fall, and God will not permit us to be sepa
rated in interest or iu fortune.
"The time has come when the Church should
press more urgently than•ahe has hitherto done
upon her laity the solemn fact that the slaves of the
South are not merely so much property, but are a
steered trust committed to us, as a people, to be pre
pared for the work which God may have for them
to do in the future. While under this tutelage, He
freely gives to us their labor, but expects us to give
bank to them that religious and moral instruction
which is to elevate them in the scale of being. And
while inculcating this truth, the Church must offer
more freely her ministrations for their benefit and
Improvement. Her laity must set the example of
readiness to toldi their duty toward these people,
and her clergy must strip themselves of pride and
fastidiousness and indolence, and rush, with the
zeal of martyrs, to this labor of love. The teachlugs
of the Church are those which best suit a people
passing from ignorance to civilization ; because,
while it represses all fanaticism, it fastens upon the
memory the great facts of our religion, and, through
its objective worship s attracts and enchains them.
So far from relaxing, in their ease, the forms of the
Church, good will be permanently done to them just
in proportion as we teach them through their senses
and their aflt•ctions. If subjected to the teachings
of a bald spiritualism, they will find food for their
senses and their child-like fancies in superstitious
observances of their own, leading, too often, to
crime and licentiousness.
"It is likewise the duty of the Church to press
upon the masters of the country their obligation, as
Christian men, so to arrange this institution as not
to necessitate the violation of those sacred relations
which God has created, and which man cannot, con
sistently with Christian duty, annul. The systems
of labor which prevail in Europe, and which are,
in ninny respects, more severe than ours, are so
arranged as to prevent all necessity for the separa
tion of parents and children, and of husbands and
wives; and a very little care upon our part would
rid the system uponwhich we are about to plant our
national life of these unchristian features. It be
longs, especially, to the Episcopal Church to urge a
proper teaching upon this subject; for in her fold
and in her congregations are found a very large pro
portion of the great alaveholders of the country.
'e rejoice to be enabled to say that the public sen
timent is rapidly becoming sound upon this subject,
and that the Legislatures of several of the Confede
rate States have already taken steps toward this
consummation. Hitherto have we been hindered by
the pressure of Abolitionism ; now that we have
thrown off' from us that hateful and infidel pesti
knee, we should prove to the world that we are
faithful to nur trust, and the Church should lead
the hosts of the Lord in this work of justice and of
mercy."
WORKS OF THE LATE DE. Romxsom—There are
few men living or dead who have contributed as
largely or as well to the literature of the Church as
the late Rev. Edward Robinson, D. D., whose death
occurred in New York on the 27th ult. His works, -
although numerous, are more to be prized for their
intrinsic value than their number. His translation
of Buttman's Greek Grammar, his Greek and En
glish Lexicon of the New Testament, his Harmony
of the Four Gospels, In Greek and English, his
edition of Calmet's Biblical Dictionary, and his
translation of Geseniu'll Hebrew Lexicon, in addi
tion to his noted Biblical Researches in Palestine
and the adjacent countries, (probably the greatest
standard book extant upon this subject,) have all an
acknowledged value among scholars, irrespective of
creed or country. It is an interesting personal fact
of Dr. Robinson that, although an incessant student,
he burned no midnight oil, but studied by the morn
ing lamp, in the avowed belief that the early hours
of the day bring the scholar his beat strength and
the thinker his freest inspirations. Dr... Robinson
was by many regarded as the most distinguished
living Biblical scholar out of Germany.
THE Rkv. MATTHEW HALE SMITH'S BAPTIST
CHURCH, Brooklyn, called the "Atheneum Baptist
Congregation," which has just been organized,
ellbrds a signal illustration of how a church can be
made to " flourish" at the present day. It is said
that when, four weeks ago, R few Baptist families
took the Athenteum—one. of the largest audience
rooms in Brooklyn—the congregation became gigan
tic in a week, and in proof of the success being
genuine, a "a tine choir of fifty persons has been
organized, who have given their names as perma
nent worshippers. On Sunday last, at the Sunday-
Minot service, over three hundred were present.
The congregation has been self-sustaining from the
start, and a fine chapel has been engaged for social
and prayer meetings." So says the Examiner, where
upon the Independent adds, that the preacher who
furnishes all this attraction is "the famous Matthew
Hale Smith, formerly of the Universalist, Congrega
tionalist, Episcopalian, Presbyterian, andilleformed
Dutch Churches." We should say to all this, that
Mr. Smith has not entered his new field without
experience, and suspect that what a smart preacher
has not learned in passing through such a denomi
national mill can scarcely be worth studying.
CATHOLIC, ANNIVERSARY AT CHARLESTOWN,
hlaea.—The Boston papers give an interesting ac
count of an anniversary held by the Catholics of
Charlestown, of the patron Saint of their elegant
new church, St. Francis de Sales. The grand High
Mass on the occasion was celebrated by the Rev. A.
Vera!, S. J., of Boston College, and the Rev. Father
Maguire, S. J., of Washington, delivered the first
sermon from the new pulpit, in which he descanted
upon the virtues of the saint, and alluded with much
feeling to the suffering soldiers in the hospitals at
Washington.
UNION PRAYER MEETINGS A3IONG THE NEW.
SCHOOL PeesnyTenraws OF THIS CITY.—A class of
union prayer meetings Is now in progress In this
city which is more likely to be characterized with
the smoothness and harmony that should always
prevail in meetings for worship than in the forced
Union meetings that are now passing away, In
Which the interdiction of " controverted points" was
n standing caution ; we refer to the meetings that
are now being held on some specified afternoon each
Week by the ministers and laity of a denomination
in some one .01 its own churches. The meeting of
this character, for the present week, of the N. S.
Presbyterians, was held on Tuesday, in the North
Broad-street Church, Rev. Mr. Adams, which wor
ships in Spring Garden Hall, until the completion of
their line, new edifice, now in progress on Broad
street. The next of this series will be held on Tues
day afternoon next, in the church of Rev. John
Chambers, on Broad street, the latter being in
closer affiliation with this than the Old•Schoo
branch of the Presbyterian Church.
THE THIRD REFORMED DUTCH CHORCH,—This
church, corner of Tenth and Filbert streets, which
lea been without a pastor since the resignation of
the Rev. Wm. J. R. Taylor, D. D., has recently ex
tended a call to the Rev. Mr. Conklin, the present
pastor of Scott Presbyterian Church, Spruce street,
above Third.
THE SUNDAY Soiroor.s connected with the Cen
tral Presbyterian Church, Coates street, below
Pouth,.gave an exhibition and concert on Tuesday
evening last, in connection with the choir of the
church, of a highly interesting character. The house
was beautifully decorated with flags, and the songs
andrecitations were all very creditable, alike to the
performers and those who had the entertainment in
charge. The exercises were conducted by the pastor
of the church, the Tier..T. Y. Mitchell.
THE Rxv. Cii A it LES WADSIVOIITII, D.D., formerly
pastor of the Arch-street Presbyterian Church in

" earnestly contend for the Faith which was once
delivered to the Saints." •
REV. A. C, li r k:DEK 13113.—The Lane:eater Empress,
speaking of Mr. '‘Vedekindss opening sermons, Ja
nuary 11, at Lancaster, in St. John's (Lutheran)
Church, says :
"These sermons were marked-by great ilgor of
thought and purity of diction, and gave general sa
tisfaction to the congregation over which the gen
tleman has been called to preside. That he will
wove a valuable acquisition to St. John , s, which of
o has been languishing for the want of a pastor,
we had the best evidence in the crowded congrega
tions which attended his introductory discourses,
and the marked favor with which they were re
ceived),

THE DOINGS OF TOE TIAIN.—Wille works
wonders; time works wonders, and so does rain. Its
work yesterday, united with the influence of the
warm temperature, was to utterly demolish the
hopes of skaters, and drench earth and sky with
dreary dampness. The weather is a constant illus
tration of the aphorism, that what is one man's food
is n not her man's poison. Ice companies have reason,
perhaps, to grow nervous in view of the present
state of affairs, whilst numerous other classes are
at the acme of self gratulation. Yesterday was
like every other rainy day, only more so. There
was the usual display of battered old umbrellas,
mud-speckled stockings, and sloppy gaiters. fialmo
rals of every hue and dimention; dingy bonnets
trumped up for, the occasion ; collapsing umbrellas
with broken down constitutions, were to be seen, all
of them looking ns though they were trying to make
the best of it. Even the shoe-blacks looked discon
solate. Their occupation gone, they moped on
the steps of the State House, and passed sati
rical remarks upon boots and the weather. Put
the beat face upon it you will, one cannot feel the
same on a rainy day as he does on a fine one. If he
has a right to praise the one, he surely has the right
to blame the other. Sunshine of gold, leaves •of
green, flowers of crimson, are sweet in the bright•
nese of their mellowed beauty. Stripped boughs,'
surly winds, unfeeling rain, are most miserable and
melancholy. There is as much diffbrence between
the two pictures as between pleasure and pain.
Rainy days are days which fair-weather people, to
use the language of another, "shouldn't believe In."
Yesterday has surely given us enough of the disa
greeable to make us long ardently for the coining of
a clear atmosphere rind steady sunshine.

Txz CRY,TRAL EALPLOYMENT ASSOCIA-
Trox.—The fifth annual report of this association,
embracing the operations in 1802, states that, owing
to the opening of new sources of employment by
the Government, the calls upon the society for
work were not so numerous as in former years.
There was a class, however, who were either unable
to obtain or were incompetent to perform Govern
ment work, and to such employment was mainly
given. The total expenditures of the society were
$200.10, of which $169.09 were for materials, $41.07
in payment for work. The higher price of all goods,
especially cotton stufib, made the relative expense
of materials greater than usual. The association
paid for the making of 275 garments, and distributed
902, some being given unmade to those who could
make for themselves. Donations of dry goods and
trimmings were received from several persons,
which were very acceptable, and for which acknow
ledgment is made.
The officers of the association are : President., P.
IL lienszey, 314 Marshall street ; treasurer, M. S.
Conard, 821 Marshall street ; secretary, L. S. John
son, sasNorth Fourth Arcot.
PETITION TO CONGRESS.—The lager
beer brewers of this city have unanimously agreed
to petition Congress to reduce the present tax on
malt liquors. The petitioners request particularly :
1. The annulling of the decision of Commissioner
Iloutwell, that beer brewed previous to September
Ist 1681 , but not removed from the establishment,
is liable to tax.
2. To annul the decision of the Commissioner,
which requires brewers to give bond for the pay
ment of taxes.
3. To amend the fiftieth section of the revenue
law, which directs " that casks holding less than
one-quarter and no more than one-eighth of a barrel
shall be taxed as one-quarter barrels." Lager beer
is generally sold in one-sixth casks, and therefore a
tax of $1.50 instead of $l, is exacted.
4. To change the specific tax, one dollar per
barrel, to a tax of three .per cent. ad valorem, which
is paid by all other manufacturers, or, in lieu of this,
reduce the tax to fifty cents per barrel.

THE POLICE_
[Before Mr. Alderman Miler.]
Arrest of a S . econd-street Clothier.
Isaac Isaacs was arraigned before Alderman Bete.
ler, yesterday morning, on complaint of a country
man, named William W. Rhodes, who hails from
Dougleseville, Berke county. The defendant, it is
alleged, keeps a clothing store, on South Second
street. According to the evidence, it seems that Mr.
Rhodes came to town on Thursday, in search of a
load of oysters. He obtained what he desired, and
then took a leisure stroll through the city. While
walking along Second street, near Chestnut, and
"seeing sights," he was hailed at the door of de
fi.ndant's store, and invited to " come in" and look
at some fine garments.
"Here ish von as vial feet you," said a man, hold
ing up a coat of fine quality.
The countryman looked at the garment, and de
sired to know how much it would take to "occu
py" it.
" Veil, sir '
that vas mate for n military Ghentle
man, and lett vorth twenty toilers."
Well, now, that is rather more than I can go.,ti
•
said the Countryman.
" "ell, you can have that coat for sixttollaisi
eighty-seven cents, eef it vill feet you," said:As
seller. - •
The countryman thought this was a great baygsk!.
Re tried the coat on, and much to his gratification it
suited him exactly.
He agreed to take it. The weather being stormy,
the seller, whoever he was, Very kindly took - the
and wrapped it up very carefully. Mr. Rhodes
paid down the money, and placing the bundle under
his arm, proceeded en his wayto his hotel, consoling
himself, in the meantime, that he had a splendid coat
for a small stun of Money,
In due time he arrived at his place of destination,
and, feeling anxious to exhibit what a bargain he
had matte , and how well he would look in a coat
made for a "military shentleman," unwrapped the
garment, and held it up to full view.
"That's too small for you," said one of the so
journers.
"Too small," responded the gentleman from Berta'
county. "I rather guess not, for I tried it on be
fore."
He put an arm in one of the sleeves, and, with
the help of a fellow-boarder, got his arm entered into
the other sleeve. One or two convulsive efforts,
and there he stood, the laughing stock of all hands.
The lappets of the coat did not meet over his broad
bosom by seven or eight inches; his arms were ex
tended as effectually as though he was fastened to a
cross. The coat did tit him to a perfect T. The
boarders and others in the hotel enjoyed many a
hearty laugh at the expense of the gentleman who
had purchased the coat made for a' military shen
tieman."
ometer.
Fie believed he had been duped, and he vowed to
have satisfaction. Yeeterday morning, Mr. Rhodes
complained before Alderman Realer, and the result
wail the arrest of Mr. Isaac 'lsaacs, the alleged pro
prietor of the store at which the coat was obtained.
The defendant will have a hearing, at ten o'clock
this morning, before the adldermao, at his Seventh
street office.
Another Charge.
Col. Hermsmi Segebsrth having entered bail in
the sum of $6,000, wee again arraigned, before Al
derman Realer,. yesterday afternoon, on the oath of
Capt. Edward b. Ulman, of Company E, 152 d Regi
ment P. V., charging him with having dra ima the $2OO
bounty money from the city treasury on December
26th, 1862, on warrant 8,009, in the name of Wm. R.
Ball, a private of said regiment, who had died some
time before.
Col. Segebarth is suffering under the effects of
heavy cold. He says that he is entirely innocent of
any intent to cheat anybody. That even, to some
of the soldiers of the regiment, he had advanced his
own money. That this whole atria can be explained
to the satisfaction of any number of impartial men.
That he had already entered $6,000 bail, and being
and
t yapem prevent
ediallanrrfrsotmed,ahnesi
consideredng his a t c o c cl ou b r l i t t d s'
order to show the truth of all his transactions. lie
supposed that his character was now gone, and that
this second arrest. would still add a deeper disgrace
to it. We think it proper to state that the evidence
against the defendant • is simply ex park: The cloud
which now surrounds him may become dissipated by
the sunlight of truth, and the colonel may yel, come
Out like refined gold.
A man employed as a porter in a Market-street
store was "run into" the Central Station, last even.
ing, on the charge of stealing from his employer. It
is said that he is the same Fellow who was arrested
more than a year ago on a similar charge, but was
let oft on the principle of "go and sin no more:) , It
is alleged that he has been pilfering various things
ever since that time, although his present employers
had forgiven him, as above stated. The accused
will probably have a hearing at 2 c'olock this after
noon.
The keeper of a small junk-shop on Moyamensing
avenue, was arraigned before the alderman at the
Central Station, yesterday afternoon, on the charge
bf receiving stolen goods. Re had received a com
position casting, worth live or six dollars, stolen
from the navy yard by some one unknoWn. There
were circumstances connected with the case of a rat
tle:ding character. The defendant was admonished
by the magistrate, and then suffered to depart, hav
ing entered bail in his own recognizance.
The little boy Graham, who was arrested, asstated
yesterday, and whom the alderman was going to
send to the Rouse of Refuge, but revoked the order,
has been handed into tfie custody of his mother, a
poor woman, who promised to send him to the coun
try. The petty thefts that have been committed in
the yard will probably cause the commandant to
issue an order that no one shall be permitted to en
ter the getaway without a pass. Quite a number of
cakewornen have made a few pennies daily by being
permitted to go into the yard among the men. The
commandant will probably issue passes for them to
continue their visits. A doughnut or gingerbread
between breakfast and dinner are very acceptable to
the workmen.
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania—Justices
Woodward, Thompson, Strong, and
Read.
Samuel Alcorn, to use, too., vs. The City of Phila
delphia. Error to District Court. The pittintitr,
sonic time in the year 1867, purchased two contiguous
lots of ground, each containing-twenty feet in front,
situate on the south side of Coates street, at the re
spective distance of eighty-one feet and one hundred
and one feet westward from the west side of Nine
teenth street, in the Fourth Survey District of the
city.
In pursuance of the ordinances, plaintiff, in the
month of June, 1859, made the application required
thereby to Amos Stiles, the then surveyor of the
said district ; and, as such, Surveyor Stiles made
.a
survey of the lots for plaintiff, and regulated and
marked the lines thereof. 'for which he received
front the plaintiff the usual fee.
Subsequently,_in the fall of 1e.60, the plaintiff
erected on the eastern lot, that nearest to Nineteenth
street, a three-story brick dwell ingaimuse, end began
a eimilar building on the other lot, both buildings
according to the lines so regulated and marked for
him by the surveyor. After the second house was
raised as high as the first floor of the joists, the
owner of the lot adjoining plaintiff's on the west,
complained to plaintiff that he was building upon
the former's lot. Stiles' term of office had then ex
pired, and plaintiff' had his lots resurveyed by E. I).
Roberts, the then surveyor of the district.
The ipleintiff then, for the first time, ascertained
the fact. that Stiles, the former surveyor, had placed
the lines of plaintiff's lots 83„ inches too far to the
west, thus making his western lot overlap that of
his western neighbor that many inches. The lot
adjoining plaintiff's lot on the east had not been
built on up to the time of this second survey. The
plaintiff, therefore, had a vacant strip of t3,,Li inches
wide for the full depth of his lots adjoining the
easternmost one on the east, which strip was worse'
than useless to him ; since, if he retained possession
of it, it would have made his eastern wall damp,
and if he transferred it to his neighbor, the latter
had no reason for paying either for the party wall
or the strip itself. Plaintiff, besides this was
obliged to, and did, cut down his westernmost house
and rebuild with the western line thereof on the cor
rect party line as given by Roberts. The result of
the whole was an expense and damage to him of
$811.57, the amount of the verdict.
By the act of Assembly of February 22,1856, it
was" made the duty of the city of Philadelphia to
take security from the several district surveyers, so
that any damage caused by their giving the lines of
lots incorrectly might be recovered from the survey
or and his securities. No security was taken from
Stiles. The plaintiff brought this suit, charging the
.city with negligence : ist. In giving the lines in
correctly; and 2d. In not taking security from the
surveyor. No points were submitted in the court
below, but the jury were charged to find a verdict
'for plaintiff, reserving the point whether the defen
dants are responsible to the plaintiff' for the negli
gence of the surveyor, or for not having taken se
curity from him, on which point judgment was sub
sequently entered for defendant non °Manic yore
ditto, and error was assigned to this. Argued by
Thos. IL McElroy and Samuel C. Pekins, Esq., for
plaintiff in error, and the City Solicitor and as
sociate for the city.
Shankland's Appeal. Argued.
Webb S. Bro. vs. Mears. Error to the District
Court. The plaintifik here were the plaintiffs be
low, and the action was assumpsit upon a draft as
follows :
"306 33.100 BALTIMORE, March 22, 1800.
" Three months after date, pay to the order of
Messrs. A. L.Webb & Brother three hundred and six
33-100 dollars, value received, and charge the same
to account. H. D. rIEABS.
"GEORGE W. MEARS, ESQ.,
" No. sat N. lath St.,
•" Philadelphia."
Written across the face of the draft, are these
words, in red ink : " Acceptance waved.
" GEO. W. IdEA_RS."
The case has been tried three times, and two new
trials granted.
,The learned judge who tried the case first, charged
the jury that the words "acceptance waved" was an
acceptance; and unless they found from the other
evidence that no acceptance was intended in point
of fact, the plaintiff was entitled to a verdict.
A. new trial was granted, because the court was of
the opinion that by his laying so much stress on the
draft without particularizing the other evidence,
he might have drawn the attention of the jury from
the letters put in evidence. (See bill of excep
tions.)
The learned judge who presided at the second
trial declined to charge that the words " acceptance
waved" was in law an acceptance, but told them it
was a question of fact for them to determine, from
the draft and letters, as to whether an acceptance
was intended by the parties.
A new trial was again granted, because the learned
judge did not instruct the jury peremptorily to find
for the defendant.
At the third trial the court Bo charged, and the
jury found for the defendant.
Argued and held under advisement.
