The member vcd that the report tf the Committee on Minutes It District Synods be recommitted, with Instructions to Insert an item bearing on his case. The Synod refused to recommit, The complaint ol the member was referred to a nectal committee. . ... Hev Dr. Htor addressed the Synod as a delegate from the Lntltfran New School General Synod. The Synod reassembled lost evening, when the Committee on the Oillclal Reports of Classes sub mitted their Teport. A motion was offered remcst lns the President to continue, as heretofore, to ap point movers of resolutions chairmen of the com mittees on the same. Declared out of order. The wover appealed from the decision of the President. The ' Synod sustained the action of tho Chair by a The mLungthUt morning opened with religious exercises conducted by Hev. Mr. Millet. The Synod acknowledged the presence of various members of sister Churches. Delegates wctb received representing the Re formed Church in America, t was moved that the Synod hear the delegate of The Reformed Church in America, Rev. Dr. Ferris, at the opening of the afternoon session. Passed. Dr Zacuartas presented from the publishers three conies, in -different styles, of the new Reformed llvmn Book.

The special committee to whom was referred the question whether the omission ef the word "Ger man" from the official title of the Church has been constitutionally adopted by a two-thirds vote of the classes, beg leave respectfully to report. That from the documents referred to the coramlt lee. It appears that the number of Classes at the time when the amendment of the constitution was ' referred to them was 81. It further appears that at the first annnal meetings f the classes held after the submission of the amendment, only seven voted against the amend ment, namely :-8t. Joseph s, St. John, Sheboygan, Mllwaukie, Erie, Indiana, and Philadelphia. It does not appear that any classis was unable to come to a decision on the question, and that consequently all the classes not so voting must be counted In favor f the amendment. Hence the number to be counted in favor of the amendment Is, according to the terms of the constitution, 4. and the amendment Jus consequently been carried. It Is proper to add that the following classes voted In favor of the amendment: East Pennsylvania, Lebanon, Maryland, Zlon, East Lancaster, Clarion, Bu Paul, Westmoreland, Miami, West Lancaster, Tnscarocra, Tiffin, Huidelburg, East Susquehanna, West New York, Mercersburg, Goshenhoppen, Illi nois, Iowa, Virginia, and West Susquehanna. Total, 21. The following classes voted in the negative: St. Joseph's, 18t. John, Sheboygan, Milwaukee, Erie, Indiana, Philadelphia. New York, Minnesota, and - Jiorth Carolina. Total, 10. We therefore recommena me auopuon or the Jollowing resolution: RegoireJ., That the omission of fhe word "German" from the official title of the Church has been con stitutionally adopted by the Classes. The report was received and adopted. Rev. J. O. Miller, of York, stated that all property wu held bv the Church under the title of the Her- ati Reformed Church, and that It wonld be ner.es. iarr for Svnod to make some provision for the legal abanm nf . mune. Elder Giesy said that the ruling of the courts had llways leen that when a Christian organization fchange Its name according to Its Constitution it vOoes not at all invalidate their legal title to pro- No decided action was taken In the matter. A report was received from the special committee to whom the subject of the complaint on the subject Of the divorce court had been referred. The report stated that the committee did not think it necessary for this Synod to take any action in the matter, as the special case which had caused the complaint belongs properly to the lower courts for adjudication. The Committee on Orphans' Homes reported that the offer of 160 acres of land In Oregon for an orphans' home should be declined, because the loca tion Is too remote and the offer Is accompanied with too many conditions. The report was laid on the table until the reports from the various superintendents of orphans' homes eboold be presented. The special committee on the subject of the Liturgy of ttie Synod of Ohio and adjacent States, and of the Northwestern Synod, reported that they kad examined the Liturgy which had been referred to them. They did not think it advisable to send the Utnrgy to the classes for adoption. They did not think that the Chinch was yet prepared to unite on .ny one order of service. The committee offered the following resolutions: Whereas, The Synod of Ohio and adjacent States and the byned ol the Northwest have produced a liturgy or order of worship, which they deem proper to be used in their worship, and request to be per mitted to use it, therefore rumlved, That their request be granted, and that j the privilege is hereby granted to all who may desire It, to use this liturgy In their worship. Resolved, That we commend to oil the lower Church court, and especially to all churches, to use moderation, prudence, and charity tn reference to the differences that exist among ns on the subject of liturgical worship. In order that we may be brought in flue time to unity and peace. Rev. Dr. Wllllard said that the memorials which tiad come before the synod on the liturgical question did not represent the whole Churh. He thought the liturgy should go down to the classes for action In order that Its adoption might take place sooner than It would do by any other method of proceeding. The Church was heartily tired of the controversy, and the sooner It was completed the better. He offered . the following resolution In place of those in the com- mittee'g report: Reoobed, That the liturgy of the Reformed Church fMhrnitted to this body by the Synods of Ohio aud of the Northwest, together with the order of worship of the Eastern Synod, be submitted to the several classes for their approval or disapproval according to the constitution, and that in the meantime the .. notional nse of both be allowed In the Church. Neither of these liturgies shall, however, in any case be introduced in the regular order of service without the formal consent or the consistory aud coma-esra-ilona. 6 Dr. Bamberger moved that the subject be deferred And made a special order tor the afternoon session. 1IHt. Dr. Moses Kleffer thought that, because there had tcen trouble in the Church on the subject, there was no good reason why It should be hurried. A state of trouble Is the natural condition of the Christian Cbnrch. We all have and must have trouble. The hour of adjournment having arrived, the sub ject was deferred, and no vote on either resolution was taken. Closed with the singing of the choral '.Nun Danket Alle Cott," , A FLEA FOR UNION. Dr. Stork, as the delegate of the General Synod of the Lutheran Church Tn the United States to the General Synod of the Reformed Church, yesterday . evening made an address before the latter, now hold ing Its sessions In this city. After presenting the .Christian salutations of his Synod to the Reformed .Convention, be Bald the Lutheran Church was not .inly the oldest but the most numerous of all the l'fotestant denominations. According to the ac count given In the Quarterly Review, by the acknow ledged statistician of the Cbnrch, the Lutheran Church Is more numerous than all other Protestant , denominations combined. The Protestant popula tion u estimated at 80,000, OOO; 47, 000,000 are em braced in the Lutheran Cbnrch in different arts AS the world. He said the Lutheran Aaroh in the United States, of ail languages, numbers 61 synods, 2000 ministers, 8500 churches, nd 400,000 communicants. It has 19 theological e.mlnarie8, 16 colleges, aud 12 periodi cal publication. He spoke of the elements of dis rd aud ecclesiastical antagonism In his Chnrch, f owing out of ad Inflexible adhesion to all the de !M the Conl0i.Moa by some and the demand . lur ruuaiiKilu innovations. He aald that all mere external conformity, all formal bonds of nnlon rii)i b do not spring o0b Pf the Inner life, and from TiWuujon with Christ, fe decOJHlTe, were Illu sions of tho Imagination. He referred In glowing terms to the recent rennlon of the two great branches of the ITcshytertan Church, and said this blessed fact shows the possibility of spiritual on, w and ecclciasttl Bnliy even where there Is di versity of theologies! sentlraont- With this practical example before ns, let ns aspire to a closer and a more manifest nnlon among all who love onr Ixird Jesus Christ In sincerity and truth. Let ns feel that, whatever may be our con fessional standards or peculiar ritualism, there Is no adcqnate reason In any minor differences for frater nal alienation or antagonism. Let us feel that, whilst we have a tendency to extreme ritualism on the one side, and a seductive rationalism on the other, we are summoned to this Christian unity that we may contend as one man for trnth, for Christ and His kingdom. Let us realize that at this day, and with our vast responsibility. It Is a sin against Christ and the souls Re has redeemed to waste our ener gies npon speculative heresies and ritualistic ques tions, contending about the seamless robe of Christ, under the very shadow of His cross. Let us feel that not to le united before the world as tho friends of Jesus for mere frivolous or Imaginary heresies and speculative differences Is putting in peril the souls we should seek to save, Is dishonoring Christ and keeping back like chilling frosts tho springtime of His king dom. May we not Invite you to unite with us In the prayer and effort for a profounder Christian unity among all the true disciples of Jesus, and for such manifestation of that unity In fraternal recognition and co-operative agency as will hasten the fulfil ment of the Saviour s prayer, "That the world may believe that thou hast sent inc." And thus shall we be among those who truly and effectually help "To build the univenwl Miuroh Lofty an it the love of Uwl And ample a thw wintn of man." TRIUMPHANT. rirlry nl Iist-No mixed ClinicsThe Hoard of Managers of tho Pennsylvania HoNitltal HucciHnb. For a week past little or nothing has boon heard from the warriors of Jefferson College or tho Uni versity ; but, nevertheless, they have been working hard and earnestly. Finding that noise and bombast went for so much chaff, some few of those whose in tellects are somewhat clear assumed the master ship, and with the skill and precision of veteran tacticians brought their batteries to bear upon the main stronghold of the enemy, and the result is victory. Yesterday, a meeting of the managers of the Pennsylvania Hospital was held, at which Mor decal L. Dawson presided, and Wlstar Morris acted as secretary. After some little discussion, the fol lowing resolution was offered and unanimously adopted : VhrTHW, It appears the resolution adopted by the Board at their Htated meeting- bold 2th nit., authoring the at tendance of fttmnie Muriont at the olinioa of the hiuipiUI, has fiven rise to much diHaatixfaction on tlio part o many physicians and studenta of this oity; and whereas, suofi opposition was entirely nnuxpeotod. from the favt that fnmale students had been attonding the clinics of the Blockley Hospital of this city, as well aa at liellnvue Hon- Sital, New York, Kdinburxli, Scotland, and Zurich, in witzerland, without, so far a we were aware, there bain any opposition ; and whereas, it is the desire of the man agers of the hospital to avoid Riving any just ground of dissatisfaction, tiierefore Kemtvrd, That a committee of five be appointed to con fer with the medical and siirgioal staff of the hospital to provide for separata clinical instruction to tho fnmslo students of medicine on at least one day in each week, and that upon t lie completion of such an arraiignmont the other clinical lectures be oonliuod to classes composed of males only. When the news of this action reached tho two colleges, a scene ensued which beggars description. Some of the students hugged, kissed, und fondled each other; another squint set up a yelling and a dnnclng, reminding one of a camp of Caiuanclies; whilst still others sought secluded corners ami mutually pledged and vowed, that slnco they had thus far conquered that terrible (!) enemy. Woman, they would henceforth ami forever hold tlio rolus so help them Solomon. An Impromptu meeting was formed and soon a long, lanky specimen of a "Down-Kustcr" proposed that they should form In a body and proceed to the college to pay their acknowledgment to the Hoard of Managers. This wa Immediately voted down. A fellow from the other side of the Allcghculcs then proposed that the students of tho KeimUo Medi cal College be treated to a serenade, and that a com mittee of live tie appointed to secure tin pans, dish kettles, and iienny trumpets for that puriHise, This was received with dearenlng cheers, and was on tho point of being umintmotmly adopted, when some chop yelled out, "I vo just got a pound of tobacco, Hail a ino-pounder exploded In their midst, It would not have produced a much greater effect. Women, clinics, and studies were all for tho time being for gotten, and with one simultaneous rush they went for the "fellow with tho tobacco" Uko 11 squad of policemen for a bootblack. When we left they were still squabbling and squirming around him. TAXATION. The Hatex for 1SJO The Controller's Report I nderMoioK luveaiiKitilon. Last evening, at the regular weekly meeting of the Finance Committee of Councils, the report of the City controller, submitting the estimates of the ex penses and receipts of the city during the year 1S7U, was submitted and considered, but as the committee found It necessary to make certain changes and cor rections in the report, it cannot yet be made nubile. At 4 o'clock to-morrow afternoon the committee will hold a special meellnir, and by that time It is thought that the report will be ready for submission to Coun cils on the following day. The session last evening was continued to a late hour, and at the adjournment it was announced that the committee had decided to report the tax rate, for lb70, at 11-bO. as at present, with the same deduc tions and penalties as for lhC'j. As the suburban rate is two-thirds of the full rate, and the farm rate one half that amount, they will therefore be l -20 and uo cents respectively, provmeu uie run rale is llxed by Councils at the amount recommended by the com mittee. Taking the assessments of real estate as submitted by the Board of Revision, we therefore have the following result, as tho revcuue of the city from taxation during the year lttfu : Halt. Iteontue. Amount subject to full rate 12T,72S,870 atfl"W) 17,699,120 Amount subject to suburban rate.... 23,719,110 at 11-20 S4,029 Amount subject to farm rate 20,162,279 at 90c. 181,871 Total H7i,flO0,2flB s,ir,,i20 In consideration of fixing the tax rate so low, tho committee struck out tbe appropriation demanded for the new public buildings. Among the bills passed; upon favorably by the committee was the ordinance making an appropriation of faooo to pay road jurors; aud another to appropriate f 0182-27 to pay District Attorney fees and clerks' fees for 1808 and 1869. In the appropriations referred by Common Coun cil relative to the school bill, they struck out J5300 towards the building of the school at Seventeenth and Vne streets, in the Twenty-sixth section. Eari.es' Gai.i.f.kieb The fire which destroyed the galleries of Messrs. James S. Earle & Sons, No. 810 Chesnut street, a few months ago, had scarcely ceased burning when active operations were com menced to repair the loss. The Interior of the struc ture has been entirely rebuilt, and advantage has been taken of the necessities of tho occasion to make a number of improvements that will make Earlcs' gnlleries more popular than ever as a place of resort for lovers of the fine arts. Messrs. Earle moved into their old quarters yesterday, and com menced operations with a splendid stock of tine pic tures, engravings, photographs, chromos, looklng- ? lasses, frames, etc., for connoisseurs to select i'oiu. Not the least of the Improvements effected is In the reconstruction of the entrance on Cheunut street, which Is now in the middle of the building, with a large show window on each side of it, which will admit of a liner display of works of art than formerly. As every promenader on Chesnut street knows, the array of fine pictures, engravings, etc., in Earles' windows makes one of the most popular features of our fashionable thoroughfare. Under the present arrangement this attraction is increased two-fold, and Messrs. Earle are to be congratulated on the Improvement. The Interior of the establish ment Is designed for the effective display of art works, the facilities for the manufacture of all kinds of frames and ornaments are Increased, and the store has been reopened with an extensive stock of the ilncst goods. Tna Hay Market. The residents in the upper section of the city still complain of what Is known as the Haymarket nuisance, the constant passing to and fro of wagons loaded with hay, the scattering of timothy on the sidewalks, and the blockade of the public highways. The evil is to be remedied, so we are Informed, for a meeting of the Directors of the Haymarket Company is called ror next month, when the subject will be under consideration. A commit tee will be appointed at this meeting to confer with Mayor Fox In reference to the alleged nuisance. It is reported that the directors will discuss the prac ticability of removing the market further north, and out of the built-up portion of the city. Mr. Joiin A. Hocbkman, the new Recorder of Deeds, enters upon the discharge of his duties to morrow. The following are the appointment made by him : Deputy Recorder Robert II. Beatty.

C IRAKI) ESTATE. meeting mt tbe Committer on Inveotlsatlon j'.Oltora il newspavrri la utnuil. The committee to Investigate sertaln charges against the Committee 00 Olrard Estate met yester day afternoon In Common Council chamber. Thomas Harlow. Select Councilman from the First ward, presided. sir. nenry iiunn, common councilman rrora me Fifteenth ward, testified as follows: When the Chair stated in Common Council, Shall the bill pass notwithstanding the veto T Mr. Dillon made a speech, In which he made three points: First. Power should not be vested In the Superin tendent of the Girard Estate. Second. Members of Councils were Interested In these leases. Third. Tbe royalty Is not sutllclent To that speech 1 replied, combatting these three points, showing that the royalty paid by the com pany which I represent outside parties tn the coal regions whs smile lent. To this Mr. Dillon replied excitedly. Immediately after this speech 1 went over to Mr. Dillon, When the following conversation ensued: I said: Mr. Dillon, I do not think that you aro aware of tho necessity and Importance of having these leases executed at once, In order to have re moved the whisky dealers and squatters who are springing np upon this property, for If you did yon would not light this bill with so much bitterness. As to any members of Councils being Interested In these lenses, I do not believe one word of It. 1 then flaked, Do you know of any parties who are Interested In these leases? To this he answered no. I then said as to the qnestlon of royalty I consider that whole matter settled and determined, and even If we knew of parties who would be willing to pay two or three cents per ton more for a lease, that would not enter Into tho discussion of this bill. It appears to my mind the proper time to have discussed ll was when the ordinances were under discussion In May last. Mr. Dillon answered: I cannot agroe with you there, because at the time tho ordinances granting theBC leases were brought In, wo could scarcely tell what was in them, and I do not know that I paid suillclent attention to them. 1 replied that I had paid attention to them. Mr. Smith, Superintendent of tho Olrard Estate, then gave an explanation of tho manner In which the leases were made, and some statistical Informa tion of a general character. I'pon motion of ylv Shoemaker, It was resolved that Biibpa-nos be. untied for certain Journalists, to have them appear beforo the committee at the next meeting and testify as to the statements made by them editorially In their respective papent. INotlee had been served upon these gentlemen, but they, misunderstanding the purport thereof, did not appear.

Some lime between the hours of S and 4 ov.lock this morning, one or more of this portion of our community approached tho residence of Mr. w. 11. I.e Van, at the northeast corner of Nineteenth and Arch streets, and with boldness almost unsurpassed, wrenched open the front kitchen window, ami entered I lie building. Oi.ce In, they set about their work. In the kitchen they found the whole of the day's wash, which they carefully bundled up. Near by tho sliver plate and plated ware of the family was found; the genuine plate they reserved, and the Imitation they bent and twisted and left there In Its place. They then gathered together all the apparel of the family they could lay hands on, and Nvlei-tliig two of the best suits, doniied them, bundled no tho remainder, nod hung their own cast-off garments on some chair-backs. After ransacking the whole Place for further booty, they left, only forgetting: to leave their curds behind. Perhaps the most notireanie leiitiire 01 the wuoie amur is inai no arrests were made; but. the render will not con sider this at nil singular, when the fact of the loua tlou being so prominent a one la considered.

Jealousy Is as potent a power among womanhood as politics among the sterner sex, aud the woman who once feels a twlnjro from the "greon-cyed monster" 111 stop short of nothing this Bide or eter nity to prove her suspicions; uud when she suc ceeds therein, then look out. For some time past, one of C,ie demi-monde residing in the neighborhood of the Exchange has hail cause to believe that her man or lover has been giving her the go-by. With a fox-like cunning and a lynx-eyed obser vance he has followed his trail night after night, but succeeded in everything but that she desired, namely, fixing his duplicity. Last night, however, she found that the partv, whom we shall call P. T. intended, accompanying another fair siren to a ball. Then did her reelings rise to lever heat, and every vein within her tilled with the rapid coursing or tho blood, warmed by the feeling of the wrong about ticlng done her, she resolved that, come what would, his perildy she would detect, and him expose before a public assemblage. "When a woman will, ehe will, You may depend on it," is an old adage, but In this case she didn't, as the seqnel will show. About nightfall the subject or our sketch attired herself In a full suit of male apparel, and donning an enormous pair of side whiskers, started out, cane in iiano. Now the object of scrutiny visits a saloon in the neighborhood of Fifth aud Walnut streets, and thither she first directed her steps. Arriving at the place, she for a moment stopped to consider as to whether she should enter or await developments; but, alasl for human expectations, this moment firoved ratal to all her hopes, ror standing In the iroad glare or a gas-light, an inquisitive character In the shape or a man discovered that something was wrong with the whiskers, as the neck and under part of the chin were as fulr as a Illy. Now this man Is fond of a Joke, and to this did he resolve to turn bis discovery. A detective onicer was sent after, and whilst the Jealous one was quietly waiting for the object ol her wrath, she was quietly tapped on the shoulder and Informed that bcr presence was desired at the detective office. Arriving thereat a rich scene followed. She plead, raved, wept, aud Importuned, but all to no purpose. The stony-hearted officials would have an examina tion. A female was about being sent f or.when the fair one gave In and an explanation followed. After re ceiving a severe lecture she was allowed to proceed to her home, promising never more to wear the breeches. Sudden Death.
