PAbTORAL ADDREMBIts or 801CrTrInTLN BISHOPS
Atiilol4 WITH TILE CHURCH Nauru REJECTED
arr.—The Bishops of the Southern Afethodisi
3Viscopal Church have addressed their flocks
in a joint pastoral, in which they scout all idea
of a reunion with the ITorthimi Church, indict
the Northern bishops and preachers, and
speaks of the future treatment of the freed
blacks. Of the blacks the pastoral says :
In the change from slave to frealmen,which
has providentially eeadien the negroes of the
bouthern States, our obligations to promote
their spiritual welfare have not ceased. We
are still debtor to them free, as before to them
bond. Under the divine blessing, our Church
has done a great work for this people. Though
often reviled while prosecuting the evangeli
zation of the colored people by those who
claimed to be their better friends, Southern
Methodists have persevered in it, not without
blessed results. Our labor has net been in
vain in the Lord. Multitudes have been saved
whoWillbo our crown of glory in "that day."
Our numerous membership among them, of
over two hundred and forty thousand, exclu
sive of the congregations and catechumons,who
received their instructions from our pastorS
and mlssionarieS, has been Meal reduced by
recent changes and casualties. If it should be
still further reduced, we neetTnot be surprised.
Defections, doubtiess, will tax place front their
ranks to ecclesiastical organizations offering
greater social inducements letfor their adhesion. if
they elect to leave us, t them go, with the
assurance that, as heretofore, we will continue
to be their friends, and in every Suitable way
aid their moral development and religious
- welfare: We must still keep up a plate and a
service for those who remain with us, and for
others, who, after a brief ex.periment else
-where.,lnsy wish te retnrn, MMile no factious
opposition on the one hand, should be offered
to the exercise of their fullest liberty in
choosing their ecclesiastical associations, on
the other no desire of being rid of a responsi
bility should incline you to treat their actions,
in so grave a matter, with indifference or to
let them take their way in ignorance of all the
issues involved.
Perhaps the most important portion of the
pastoral is that which refers to the question
of Union. After giving a history of the ef
forts made by the first general conference in
18 to -establish fraternal relations and a
-closer intercom:se, anti their failure, the pita
loral continues :
We feel bound to say to you, however, that
since the position of Northern Methodists to
ward us has been soniewhatchanged. Having
agreed with ne On a plan of separation into
two independent ecclesiastical jurisdietiOnS,
and for an equitable division of the Church
property, they afterward sought to repudiate
their covenant and evade payment; and were
only brought to settlement at the end of
the law. This plan, though granted by
thenThelYes, who were m a majority,
and subsequently continued 1W the Su
preme Court of the United States,
as the basis 'of our legal and constitutional
rights, has been,whenever convenient, ig
nored by them. They have endeavored, by
misrepresentations, to fix on us the invidious
character Of Secessionists and schismatics,
without authority or cause from the parent
body,• whereas we are, in all respects,coequal
and fioeval with themselves. The aolition,
for military arid political considerations, of
the institution of domestic slavery in the
United States does not affect the question;
that wasj prominent in our separation in 1844.
liar is this the only difference or the principal
one between us and then,. While testifying
with pleasure to the nobler conduct and senti
ments of many brethren among them, we - must
express, with regret, our apprehension that a large
proportion, if not a majority of Northern Alletho
dials have become incurably radical. They teach
for clocirine the eommandmentS Of men. They
preach another gospel. They have incorporated
social dogmas and political tests into their
church creeds. They have gone on :to im
pose conditions tiPon discipleship that Christ
did not impose. Their pulpits are per
-eel-led to agitations and questions not health
fuel to personal piety; hilt promotive of po
litical and eeelealuotical discord, rather than
of those ends forwhich the Church of the Lord
Jesus Christ was instituted. Without such a
change as we see no immediate prospect of, in
their tone and temper and practice, we can an
ticipate no good result from even entertaining the
.übjeet of reunion with them, Fidelity to what
SCUM our providential mission requires that
we preserve our distinct ecclesiastical Organi
zation, in all its vigor and integrity, free from
entangling alliances with those whose no•
tions of philanthropy and politics and social
economy are liable to give an ever.varying
complex:omi to their theology. Let us abide
In 011 r lot, and be true to our calling, doing
what we can to spread Seriptural holiness
through these lands and to oppose the tide of
fanaticism which threatens their overflow.
This is what is said of Northern bishops and
preachers:
"The conduct of certain Northern Meth°
dist bishops. and preacherS, in taking advent
age of the confusion incident to a state of war
to intrude themselves into several of our
houses of worship, and their continuing to
hold these places against the wishes and pro
tests of the congregations and rightful owners,
causes ns sorrow and pain, not onls: as work
ing an injury to us, but as presenting to the
world a spectacle ill calculated to make an
impression favorable to Christianity. They
are not only using, to our deprivation and ex
clusion,
churches and parsouagcs which we
have budded, but have proceeded to set up a
claim to them as their property. By what
shadow of right, legal or moral, we are at a
loss to conceive. We advise our brethren who
suffer these evils to bear them patiently—to
eleave closely together, and not indulge in any
vindictive measures or tempers. A plain state
ment of the case, and an appeal to the justice
of those in authority, cannot fail to defeat
such scandalous designs and secure us the full
restoration of all our rights. While Ora° talk
of reunion of the two churches, we forewarn
you of a *demotic attempt, already inaugurated,
end of which the foregoiny is only an instance ,
to disturb, and, if possible, disintegrate and then
absorb our membership individually. In the
meeting of their bishops and missloi Lary secre
taries, alluded to, it was resolved to send
preachers and plant societies in our midst
wherever there is an opening. Their policy
is evidently our division, destruction, and
ecclesiastical devastation. Against all this be
on your guard. Internal dissensions will do
us, much more harm than such outward anta
geldsza. In this connection you will be pleased
to hear that our people are steadfast, The
border conferences, under speeial trials,pre
sent a noble example of steadfastness.
The pastoral closes with an exhortation to
the Clergy and people not to preach politica,
and to adjust themselves to their relations as
United States citizens as quieklyas possible.

CONVICTION OF JOnN JENRINS.—John
Jenkins, formerly one of the deputy marshals
Of the United States, was convicted yesterday,
in the United States court, on the charge of
conspiracy to aid the escape of Robert m.
Leo. Mr. Jenkins was once a police officer
under Marshal John S. Keyser, having been
returned as such by the Select and Common
Councils of the city, the year 1850,.in which
capacity he gave evidence of superior police
abilities. lie was subsequently appointed by
United States Marshal Roberts as one of his
deputies, tinder the Administration of Pre
sident Fillmore, He maintained this post
tialn under Presidents Pierce, Buchanan,
and Lincoln. About the beginning of the
present year he resigned his liosition, and
became a private citizen. Mr. Jenkins was a
most successful officer in making important
arrests, but there was a mysteriousness in his
modua operandi that other officers Mid not
understand and the success lie often met with
excited their jealousy, and privately, to some
extent, their most unqualified disapprobation.
Marshal Jenkins was shrewd in his official ac
tion, and at times, when seeming to be reck
less in his conduct,. yet he had deep purposes
in view, Ilis attention was mostly turned to
counterfeiters. Ile made this theme his
study, and when the country was about
to he hooded with spurious " hard stuff," that
is counterfeit American coin, it was not long
before he had the dies in his possession, as
well as several bushels of bogus half and quar
ter dollars. We remember on one occasion,
during the administration Of President Bu
chanan, the United States Commissioner's of
lice, in the old building oil Fifth street, pre
sented the appearance of a machine shop.
Dies tools, presses ; plateS, plain and- en
graved ;_bugs, chemicals., note-paper, and notes
in different stages of printing, were displayed
there by his efforts alone. The Officers of the
Governmentivere surprised, and the detectives
of the city proper, looked on in silence, cha
grin, and amazement, at such a seizure. Ile had
completely broken up the Counterfeit coin
businese t and by this time commenced a raid on
the KonfaChers in general. The counterfeit
-note business seemed destined tO become
enormous, so much so that the banking insu
tutimis alt over the country became alarmed.
A reward of $25 was offered by each bank, for
the apprehension and conviction of each
counterfeiter. A number of arrests were
made, but by Officers, however well seeming,
were rather hasty, and in most instances, con
victions did not result. They, therefore,
- whistled for the rewards. Mr. Jenkins, how
ever, worked silently and eireetually,and when
the proper time arrived, he, with Chief Frank
lin, caused the arrest of White, the engraver, in
The vicinity of New York, and had him con
victed and sentenced in the courts in NeW
York city. At the time of the arrest a large
number of counterfeit plates were seized, and
also immense amounts of note-paper and
notes. This was regarded by the newspapers
and the authorities in an parts of the country
as a very important arrest and seizure. There
was very little cOunterfeiting done for some
time after this event. The fact the new law
was passed changing the banking inati
tuttraus into national banks, and this, with
the arrest of the principal engraver, effec
tually checked the manufacturers of the
" quere," and the " pushers" were forced to
turn their attention to other business. In
the latter part Of RSA spurious Currency notes,
of the fifty-cent and twenty.flve.cout denomi
nation, made their appearance. They were
not manufactured in this city. The Treasury
notes of -several denominations were counter
feited in England and sent to America, and it
' vas thought that new and expert men Caine
from that quarter of the world to prosecute
their nefarious business here. Mr. Jenkins
resigned his official position, since which time
nO-important arrests have been made in Phibt•
deifihia. At the time of the escape Of Robert
M. Lee, it fihould be remembered Mr. Jenkins
Wll5 not en officer, but a private Citizen.
.Alc Of o STOVE. —A day or two since the
attention of the reporter was incidentally
called to an old stove, at an extensive stove
manufactory, on Gunner's Run, in the north
ern part of the city. This old-fashioned mass
of iron is known as a ten-plate - wood stove,
made in the year 1780, and is consequently
nearly four score years old. As a piece of
work it contrasts strangely with the beautiful
and light coal stoves of the present age. No
doubt this relic of past generations was, in its
time, thought to be a most beautiful, neat, and
useful ornament. Perhaps more than ordinary'
attention bad been called to it, forits combi
nations of strength, weight, beauty, and ori
ginality of design. Now, it is an object of
curiosity, and as stieli possesses much interest,
because a comparison can be drawn between
it and the more modern Inventions for genera
ting artificial heat. The old stove is about five
feet high, with square sides, front, and back,
and. contains the following embellishments.
Above the fire-door, on the front plate, is a re
presentation of the " light of liberty," being
an old-fashioned oil lamp the rays, in diverg
ing lines, covering the whole front plate. The
design, though not ,very well executed in re
gard to workmanship, is nevertheless patri
otic, and as such evinces the feelings of the
people in the infant days ofithe Republic, the
American Hercules having been born only a
few years previously amid the thunders of the
revolution. The sides are decorated with the
figure of an Indian squaw with a papoose
slung over her shoulder. She stands under
the foliage of a foresttree, such as yet
shades the, placid waters of the Wissahicon.
The squaw looks intently at the apbroach
of a white mani who, with dog and gun,
seems to be making a raid upon rabbits
or quails, from the corner of the woods on
the opposite side. In the centre are the
figures 1786, as indicative of the time when the
stove was manufactured. These figures are
three inches in length. Above the door plate,
in old English lettering, were the names of the
firm Udree R Iswyler, The back plate is
made patriotic by the representation of a eel
(Her in Continental uniform. The bottom
plate is one and a quarter ineli thick, and . the
other plates three-fourths of an inch. This
Stove is probably one of the oldest in Phila
delphia and as a connecting link in the great
chain of mannfactures, connecting the present
with the long past, is a curiosity and should
lie preserved as it probably will be. Perhaps
this old relic once adorned the "Dutch
kitchen" of some old patriotic Pennsylvania
farmer, a specimen of which was presented at
the great Sanitary Fair ill Logan square.
Around it, in the young days of the republic,
when this old stove was new and pretty,
crowds of old folks and young folks assembled
on long winter evenings to hear stories inci
dent to the revolution. Then the old folks
would point to the embellishment on the back
plate, and impress upon the minas of the altil
dven of the second and third generations some account of the sun - clings of the patriots for
liberty; how they were ruthlessly massacred
at Paoli, or burned in the barn at Roxboro, by
the British soldiers. There is no doubt that
if this old stove could speak, it could unfold an
interestinghistory of scenes long since passed
into the grave of Oblivion.
TICE RECENT GERMAN FESTIVAL.—A
New York paper, in referring to the German
pie-nie and summer evening . festival, held in
Philadelphia a day or two since, at Engle &
Wolf's Park, Says, among other things, that
the Young Mronnerchor of Philadelphia, - is
one of the champion societies. which, at the
prize singing at the Actuldbay during the
Stengerfest in this city, secured its prize, and
is one of the most prominent German musical
societies in this eonntry, counting a number
of prominent and wealthy men among its
members. They were guests of the Colonia
Society during the Stengertest in this city.
The New Yorkers, during their sojourn, were
the guests of the Philadelphians, and were
quartered, at their expense, at Ulmann's Ho
tel, where, after the festival at Engel & Wolf's
tai m on Tuesday, a series of festivities took
place. - Addresses were delivered by Messrs.
Secklemann and Klatnke, of the Colonia, and
Mr. Hund, of this Arlon. At the festival
grounds. on Tuesday, a burlesque procession
took place in illustration of the New York
Smngerfest, and the Arions of this city admit
that they were " beaten " by the Philadel
phians in the way of arranging
burlesque and
grotesque festivities. As the next Saingerfest
will come oft in two years at Philadelnhia,
and the Philadelphians having secured the
prizes at the Steengerfest in this city, the New
York societies are already preparing them
selves to distinguish themselves in a similar
manner when the time comes.
WHAT THE BOSTONIANS SAY OP OuE
REFRESHMENT SALOONS.—The following, from
a Boston paper, possesses local interest to Phi
ladelphians. In referring to the saloons, the
paper says: "Those truly noble and benefi
cent institutions of Philadelphia, the Union
and Cooper Shop Yolunteer Refreshment
loons, were formally closed last Monday eve
ning. What soldier will not hear of the event
with all the interest that can spring from
grateful associations. Twelve hundred thou
sand volunteers, in their passage through Phi
istleiphia during the last four years, have been
entertained and refrenhekaud often. most op.
portunely and humanely, in these famous sa
loons. In the dead of night, in rain and cold,
no matter how suddenly a regiment might
arrive, or where it might come from, every
man was sure to find a welcome in the shape
of hot coffee anti cakes ready for him. This
may look like a small thing to come stapat.
home people, but it was a ,great thing for the
soldier, and therefore for the country. These
saloons, in fact, were among the happy
thoughts of the war, creditable to our people,
and especially creditable to the noble-hearted
women and men of Philadelphia. That name
will be pleasanter to thousands hereafter on
account of the gracious hospitalities it will
recall.
TICE HOSPITAL.—Four persons were ad
rnitted into the hospital yesterday, suffering
from various injuries.
Lewis Itosennoi, twenty-one years of age,
living near the Falls of Schuylkill, had two

Theodore Neely, sixteen years of ago, living
at No. hit Frankford road, had his left hand
considerably crushed and 'bruised by havhig. it
caught in the bed plate of a press at the print
ing establishment of Stein & Jones, No. 321
Chestnut street.
_ . .
Michael O'Brien, a young man employed at
the Arch-Street House ,had the arteries of his
right hand cut by a piece of glass yesterday,
It seems that he struck a bottle with his open
band, breaking it, and one of the sharp edges
caused the injury. The blood spirted to the
ceiling of the room, but its flow was soon
checked. . _
Catherine Cummings, ilfty-six years of age,
fell down the stairs of her reald6tite, in the
11 -
lower part of the city, and 43 injured about
the abdomen.

CAUTION TO OVIJNERS.
George Worknot is the name given by a
young man who was arraigned yesterday on
the charge of trespassing on the farm of Dr. S.
Henry, in the vicinity of Second street and
Nicetewn lane. The prisoner was gunning
after birds. His arrest was considered neces
sary as a caution to others, who in large num
bers make a raid on the farms during the bird
season. A day or two since several cattle
were shot by gunners, who recklessly use tire.
arms since which time two valuable cows
have' died from their wounds. A horse was
also peppered a day or two since by an ama
teur youngster. On Thursday a farmer, who is
hired to take charge of Dr. Henry's farm, was
also shot by the same process. These danger
ous raids will have to be stopped, and it was in
consequence of the results above stated that
Worknot was arrested while gunning in the
Vicinity. He was fined and put under bonds
to be of future good behavior. redicemen
have been stationed there to stop gunning on
the farms ; farmers, however, in the rural suc
tion, are not required to pay police tax, there
fore they are specially accommodated with
protection at the expense of tax-payers.. When
the police bill was before Councils it was con
tended by members from the rural districts
that farmers did not want police protection.

iciLaricE Gtilpiu, Esq.. U. S. District Attorney.]
Mr. Bull, counsel for the defendant, was
banded the pardon of Robert M. Lee. It is. as
follows!
hi.W DREW Jormsox, President of the United
States of America:
5b allwhom these presents shall come—Greeting:
Whereas, At the April session, 1865_,_ of the
Eastern
District
States Circuit Court for the astern
District of Pennsylvania, one Robert M. Lee,
Was eonviotbd of forging enlistment papers,
with intent to defraud the United States ; and
was sentenced to pay a fine of 5500, and to be
imprisoned for three years.
S . .,And whereas, I am assured by Hon. A. G.
Curtin, and many other highly respectable
citizens, that the said Robert M. Lee is a pro
per object Of Ex9cutive clemency ; now, there
fore,, be it known, that I, Andrew Johnson,
President of the United States of America, in
consideration of the premises, divers other
good and sufficient reasons me thereunto mov
ing, do hereby grant to the said Robert M. Lee
the remission of his said term of confinement,
conditioned upon the payment of his said fine.
In testimony whereof, I have bereentosigned
my name, and caused, the seal of the United
States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington, this tenth
Vmat.l day of July, A. D. 1865, and of the Inde
pendence of the United States the
ninetieth. ANDREW JOHNSON.
By the President:
Wu. 11. SnwAnn, Secretary of State.
Mr. Bull for defendant, argued that the sen
tence of-thee court, in the case of R. M. Lee,
having beep reversed by the only authority
which could reverse it—that the pardon itself
is a valid instrument; and the party pardoned
is restored to all his original rights, and no
proviso m such a pardon can be considered of
any ef f ect, and cited in support thereof the
case of People vs. Pease, 3 Johns; Cas, WS. If
the pardon of one sentenced to the peniten
tiary for life contains a proviso that nothing
therein contained shall be construed so as to
relieve the party from the legal disabilities
consequent upon his sentence, other than .the
imprisonment, the proviso is void, and the
party is fully rehabilitated.
Judge Cadwalader decided that the pardon
was a remission of part of the sentence only,
and the party offered as a witness is incompe
tent ; and cited Stekler , s ease as the ground of
his deeision,
• . .
The defence here closed their ease.
At half-past ten o'clock the Jury rendered a.
verdict, finding John Jenkins guilty.
Court of Quarter Sessions—Hon. James
The Jury in the case of (3eorge Lindsay and
John if. Weaver, charged with. robbing a sol
dier, rendered a sealed verdict, finding the ac
cused guilty.
Messrs. Cassidy and o , Byrae, counsel for the
defendants, hied reasons for a new trial. They
said that the 1189.13. who was with the soldier
the night of the alleged rObbery could now, '1
they thought, be found.
THE MILK. CASE. • I
The jury in the case of John Huston, the
milkman, charged with stealing from his em
ployer, rendered a sealed verdict, finding the
accused guilty, with a recommendation to the
mercy of the court. Judge Ludlow called Mr.
Jenner up, and he testified that the whole
amount of defaleation was tr 0402.05. Sentenced
to one year in the county prison.
Margaret Small was charged with commit
ting an assault and battery on Plashm Sower.
This right occurred by a number of families
using the same hydrant. Verdict guilty. Sen
tenced to pay a fine of one dollar and costs.
John Ityan was charged with attempting to
dissuade a witness not to testify in a ease.
Wm. Opdyke testified that Michael Dowling
was charged before Alderman Beitler with
stealing his watch; the prisoner came to me,
and said if he was me he would not testify
against Dowling, but I could do as I pleased,
as it was none of his business.
The Court decided that the evidence waS not
sufficient, as the law said it must be when a
witness was legally summoned to attend.
Mr. Mann said the bill was drawn at com
mon law, and not under the act which says a
man must be leg
_r_ ally summoned before he
could be dissuaded
Mr. Cassidy said that was the case then the
bill was worthless.
The Court submitted the hill to the jury,
saying they could pass upon it as to whether
the man was spoken to with a guilty intent.
He would hear an argument afterwards, if
necessary, as to the paint of law in the ease.
The jury rendered a verdict of not guilty.

of age, bad been in attendance on the court,
and yesterday she fainted in the yard. No

and, on his return, said that the prosecutor
bad ran away after stealing some clothing.
The daughter of the defendant testified that
she heard her mother say she took the money
out of a trunk - and &aye lt hack to the man.
Verdict not guilty.
Henry Jones was charged with an assault
and battery on Martha Dunn, and, in the
second count, with an assault and battery,
with intent to commit a rape, The prosecu
trix is a little girl of eleven years of age, and
testified that she had seen the defendant only
two or three times_; that she saw him about
Eleventh and Lombard, where the defendant
accosted her with some qiestion, and, having
answered it, he took her to Madame Dubois',
in Duponceau street • some conversation took
place between th e defendant and the madame,
when they went away; he then bought her a
peach and took her up in the State House
steeple, where he took liberties with her,
when a - policeman came up and the prisoner
said he was a relative of mine; the man told
me he would . give me *lO if I would go every
place with hun.
Reserve Officer Crout testified.—l received
information from Ida West, and went to the
steeple, where I saw the prisoner and little
girl. I took them into custody, and the little
girl said the man was her cousin. The man
said lie met the little girl, and thoughthe knew
her. She asked for meocreaM, anti he gave it
to her. He wentto Madame Dubois to ace if a
woman boarded there who used to live upihe
country.

Madame Dubois with a little girl. I followed
them after they left, and told the police where
to find them. When he came to the house he
attempted to push in the front room door.
The room was darkened, and Mrs. Dubois mas
lying down. She asked him what he wanted
with, such a small child as that there, and or
dered him out.
Kato Edwards teStilled to seeing the man
and child at the house, and going to look for
an officer to have them arrested.
Madame Dubois testified that she was lying
down in the front, room, and heard some foot
steps ; her door was opened, and I immediately
asked him what he brought such a child as
that there for; be Said the child was a rela.
thus ; I told him lie would not brinra relation
there, and he said it was none of my business ;
I ordered him out and. sent to have him ar
rested; he asked for a woman when he first
came in.
Mr. Dunn testified that his child was born
September 2.5,1853 Ido not know Henry Jones;
he is no relation of mine; I Was not told of the
ocenfrence until some days atter it occurred,
as I was unwell.
The defence was an entire innocence, and
called a number of witnesses who testified as
to the good character of the accused for
chastity and morality. That he was very fond
of children, and when he boarded in this city
his littlegirl played with the proseoutrix in
this case. The counsel for the prisoner stated
that the sister-in-law of the prisoner was a
lewd woman, and he thinking she went into
Madame Dubois , house, followed her in. There
Was DO evidence, however as to this point.
The Commonwealth abandoned the Second
count of the - indictment, and pressed the
charge of assault and battery. The Jury ren
dered a verdict of guilty o assault and bat
tery, with a recommendation to mercy.

The parties reside on Delaware avenue, and
had a dispute about the way the children were
dressed, and their husbands. Ellen claimed to
have a decent marriage r and was not married
by an alderman. This caused Isabella to beat
her. On cross-examination She said she did
not spit in the face of the defendant, because

the verdict, and the jury finally rendered a
