The closing exercises took place at noon to-day in the presence of a large aud greatly lute , rested audience, several prominent clergymen being rnnong those present on the occasion. TnK Prm.ic BATns Wokk to bb commenced Im MKDiAiBi.r. The Police Committee of Councils met this morning iu the clerk's oitlce, for the pur p Be of opening the bids for the erection of public tains. belore proceeding to that duty, the committee dc ( lded to appropriate foo for the erection of baths n the Bedford Street Mission, and ou account of the absence of Mr. ShallcroRS, a similar request of the cit liens of Frankford and Manayunk was laid over for the present. The bldswcre then opened, and the following were the figures as offered: William 11. Cramer, 13345 per house. Henry Phllllppl, $3700 per house. C. D. Supplee A Son, tMOO per house. On motion, the contract was awarde to the Messrs. Supplee for the construction of four houses, two of which are to be located on the Delaware and two on the Schuylkill. The sites of the former have not yet bsen decided, while those on the Schuylkill will be located one on the east side at South street, and the other on the west bank above the Wire Bridge. The contractor will be obliged to deliver the houses during the month of July. Ckickkt Matches. On to-morrow and Friday the noted St. George Club, of New York, will play the Young America Club, at Turnpike bridge. This reason the St. George plays a very strong eleven stronger than for years and an interesting and ex citing game may be expected. Play begins first day at a P. M., and second day at 10 A. jM. The return game between the Oermantown and Philadelphia clubs will be played on Friday and Saturday of this week, on the grounds of the former. According to cricket rules and cricket etiquette the match should be played on the grounds of the latter, but we understand that the ground of the Philadelphia Club, at Camden, is in very bad condi tion from the late rains, hence making the change both desirable and convenient. The Willow Club, a well-known organization in New York, will visit our city to play the Young America Club a one day's match on Saturday next. This is the iirst visit of the Willow Club to Philadel phia. Bask Bai.u The chief theme of conversation this merning everywhere is the game of base ball be tween tiio Athletic, of this city, and the Cincinnati, of Cincinnati, which takes place this afternoon ou the grounds at Seventeenth street and Columbia avenue. The various ball headquarters were crowd ed, and the speculations as to the result of the game were decidedly Interesting. Philadelphians were confident of a victory for their representatives, and the Ohtoans were equally as sure of a victory for the Ktd Stockings. The conversation at times became heated, and in many instances resulted in the dif ferent parties backing their opinions with cash. Betting was lively among the gamesters, with slight odds iu favor of the visiting club. The overwhelm ing defeat of the Atlantic on Monday by the Ath letic has served to create such an excitement as has not been witnessed In our city for years. Both nines are in splendid trim for the fray, and it seems that the result will depeud upon that one which will have the most luck. Local Odds and Bsds. The oermantown tem perance people are talking of a grand demonstra tion at Uuntiug Park on the Fourth of July. Peter Ehrenberg, alia Pete Pretzels, who was shot during the liremen's row on Sunday morning, is a policemen under Mayor Fox. An effort is being made in Oermantown to orga nize two or three companies of volunteers, with every prospect of success. The Democratic State House Row politicians have already fixed the nominations for the October elections. Rents in Oermantown are now at a reasonable figure, and the supply la quite equal to the demand. In our later editions of to-day will be lound a full report of the Athletic-Red Stocking game. Our suburban farmers are now making hay as Next Friday is the Masonic day of St. John. Bit oa n Street The mass meeting called for Thursday evening, the both instant, to take action la regard to the Improvement oi Broad street, should lie kept in remembrance by our citizens generally. No oue class of our people is Interested more than another in the object of the meeting. The paving and im proving of Broad street would benefit all classes alike, and hence ail should be Interested in the measure. The military aud the firemen, it is sug gested, should, in a special manner, lavor the move ment. The suggestion is a good one, for they, as well as other organizations that make public dis plays, would find in Broad street, if It were properly paved, the graudest avenue for their purpose iu the world. Let the military, the firemen, and all other public bodies look into the matter and lend it their heartiest co-operation. A Handmomb Prize Bailey & Co., the famous Chesnut street jewellers, are about finishing a very handsome prize medal, which is to be awarded to the man making the best shot of Colonel James Latta's Regiment (First Regiment N. U.), on the occasion of the visit of the organization to Media on Saturday next. It will be known as the "Bailey Medal," and its donors are the firm who are inanu tacturlog It. It is a Maltese cross, embossed with a wreath of laurels and cross arms of muskets, with the monogram of the regiment, "N. G." It Is of solid gold, valued at f'ioo, and is a fine specimen of skilful workmanship. Fires. About 8 o'clock this morning, the lager 4eer saioon of Charles Aschal, No. a 130 Market street, was damaged to a considerable extent by lire. The flames broke out on the second floor, and before they were extinguished the whole upper por tion of the building was destroyed. A fireman dropped a child from the second-story window, but those below falling to catch It, it fell to the pave ment and sustained severe Injuries. Just about the same time the dwelling No. 220 Currant alley was slightly damaged by lire. Casualties. Hugh Bonder, while riding on the front platform of a Vine street car, slipped off, and the wheels passed over a foot, crushing it badly. He was taken to the Pennsylvania Hospital. Hugh Bruner, aged forty-Beven years, fell through the scaffolding at Green lane bridge, on the Phila delphia and Norristown Railroad, this morning, and bad his jaw and both arms broken. He was other wise badly injured. He was removed to St. Joseph's Hospital. An Invitation has been extended to the Red Stocking aud Athletio Base Ball Clubs to attend the performance of The Lancera this evening, at the Walnut Street Theatre. The invitation has been accepted by the clubs, and those who are excited on the subject f the contest to come off this afternoon way expect to see both the victors and the van quished to-night, provided they go early enough to secure I eat. ABoom-matk Robbbd. William Palmer, board, ing at No. 815 N. Fourth street, awoke this morning and discovered that a gold watch and $570 had been abstracted from his clothing. Suspicion was at once fixed upon one Mooney, a driver on the Mar ket street cars, wuo was me room-mate oi rainier. Inquiry failed to point to his whereabouts, and the matter has been placed it the hands of the defec tives. boxes of Clothing Stolen. Yesterday after- noon two boxes of clothing, belonging to the firm of Snyder. Ilur rut, uasseti co., ino. t Market street, were placed on the pavement for shipment. A couple of thieves came along, seized the boxes and riroun riir with them. One of the cases was marked 'W. D.

The exercises last evening were opened with prayer by Rev. Dr. Richards, of Reading, which was followed by singing and the reading of the S :rlp tnres. The opening sermon was preached by Rev. C. W. Stewart, from the loth chapter of Mark, 15th verse: "And He said unto them, go ye Into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature." The business meeting was then opened by the Rev. C. W. Stewart, Rev. Dr. Andrews, and Rev. William F. Moore being appointed temporary clerks. About two hundred members answered to their names on the calling of the roll. The session was continued until a late hour, hut nothing more than mere routine business was transacted. This Alornlna's Neamlon. This morning, at 9 o'clock, the synod assembled for business in the above church. An hour was spent In devotional cxerclss, the Moderator, Rev. Dr. Richards, of Rra'llng, conducting the same. Rev. Dr. Rice was selected for Permanent Clerk and Rev. Mr. Moore for Stated Clerk. The church was well tilled, and the calling of the roll showed the presence of about two hundred members. On motion of Rev. Dr. Allen, Colonel J. Ross Snow den was elected Treasurer of the synod. A resolution was adopted in reference to the com pensation of the Permanent Clerks. After some discussion, a.motion to adopt the rules which governed the late General Assembly was adopted. Iu view of the time consulted in the calling of the roll, Mr. J. Ross Snowden offered a resolution, which was adopted, appointing the Permanent and Stated clerks as a Committee on Enrollment, and that the members report their names to said com mittee, who shall give notice of the time and place for making the enrollment Rev. C. W. Stewart, of Lancaster county, offered the following resolutions: Jtenolved, That the Synod hereby declares the Pres bytery of Octorara to be the legal successor of the Presbytery of New Castle and the Presbytery of Donegal heretofore existing within its boundaries, and 8S such entitled to the possession and enjoy ment of all rights and franchises and liable to the performances of all the duties of each of these pres byteries. Kesolwd, That the Presbytery of Octorara is here by constituted to consist of the members and churches included within the boundaries of the counties of York, Lebanon. Lancaster and Chester, to meet in the church at West Chester, on the first Tuesday of October, at 11 o'clock A. M., and to be opened with a sermon by the Rev. L. C. Rutter, or, In case of his absence, the Rev. H. A. Nilcs. A motion of Rev. D. B. Hoichkln to postpone the foregoing resolution until the reconstruction ef the Presbytery of Philadelphia gave rise to considerable discussion, but was finally adopted. A motion by Dr. Mui-grave was then adopted pro viding for an Interlocutory meeting in reference to the mHtter ef the division of presbyteries. A motion was also adopted limiting the speeches in the Interlocutory meeting to five minutes' dura tion. Rev. Dr. Musgrave spoke in favor of a division of Philadelphia into two presbyteries. He said that the presbytery as now coustltutcd was too large and cumbersome. Rev. Dr. Breed opposed the division advocated br Dr. Musgrave. He maintained that the running of a line through a compact district, gave rise to much confusion. He was in favor of including in one presbytery all the compact part of the city, and the sparsely-settled portion to comprise the other pres bytery. Rev. William T. Eva favored a division which will include a portion of the country churches. He opposed a large presbytery composed entirely of the compact portion of the city of Philadelphia. He objected to centralization, to a "metropolitan"' pres bytery. Rev. Dr. Dnre thought that the subject had pro voked much useless niscussion. He thought that the most effective way of deciding the matter was for the synod to hear an expression of opinion of the Philadelphia members in regard to the division of the city into two presbyteries. Rev. A. 11. Barnes agreed with the views ex pressed by Dr. Dare. He therefore moved that the synod have an expression of opinion from the Phi ladelphia members upon the subject. Dr. Musgrave thought that the members from the four presbyteries should retire for discussion, and the result of their deliberations be reported to the Synod in the afternoon session. Dr. Wlswell was of opinion that nothing could be paired by retiring for a consultation. The question conld be discussed as effectively In open synod as by retiring ior mat purpose, lie was in ravor or dis cussing then and there the whole matter, and coming to a vote aiter an nave expressed tneir opinion on the question. ur. tsiacKwooa saia matoriginauy ne was in ravor or one presbytery for Philadelphia, but in order to harmonize matters he yielded his opinion, and now was In favor of the division of Philadelphia into two sections, Market street being the dividing Hue. The question being loudly called for, a test vote was then taken, and it was decided by a large majority to have more than one presbytery. on motion, tne synod then rose from ine interio. cntorv meeting. On motion, the synod then took a recess until 4 P. M. DlSAlTEARANCE OF A PHILADELPHIA PHYSICIAN in New York. Dr. Walter 11. Foster, who has for sonie time past resided in Pine street, in this city, went to Yonkers, New York, recently, to purchase a dwelling for his future residence. While looking at different properties in Yonkers, he went fishing on the 10th Inst., since which time nothing has been seen or heard oi mm. A boat containing a knue and fishing tackle was found on the loth UisUut in the dock near Dudley's Grove. Mrs. Fanny, the lady with whom the doctor boarded, neglected to report the disappearance of her bourder te the police or to any one else likely to afford any assistance In the matter, until ten days afterwards. On examining a carpet valise left behind by the missing man, it was found to con tain a diploma given to Dr. Fostor by some medical college, and also a deed for some property in the State of Maine. The police autnorities visited Mr. Dudley, proprietor of Dudley's Grove, who informed them that the last he saw of the doctor was some time previous in company with two well-dressed strangers. Mr. Dudley remarked at the time that the doctor did not partake of anything to drink ex cept soda-water. A telegram having been sent to Mrt. Foster, in Philadelphia, that lady arrived in Yonkers on Monday evening in the greatest alarm. She stated that her husband was very abstemious, and also that when he left home he had iu his pos session a gold watch, together with a Ura sum ol money.

Certain parties will oppose him on account of his past record, but it la not thought the opposition is strong enough to defeat him. (Senate. Washington, June 22. Mr. Conklins; presented resolutions of the Union League Club of New York city, for a reduction of taxes, against the renewal of the Income tax, etc. Read and laid on the taiile. Mr. bumuer, from the Committee on Foreign Re lations, reported favorably on the Mil to facilitate telegraphic communication between the I'nited States and the lieniludu Islands lie also reported a bill to authorize a direct sub marine cable from the United States to Belgium.

Mr. Brooks, of New York, reminded Mr. Scheucfe that there whs a b'll repoited from the Committee of Ways and Means to abolish the duty oa coal, and suggested that that bill ought also to be made a special order.

Athletic Base Ball Ground, Seven teenth and CoLrMBiA Avende, June 23. Never before In the hietory of base ball has there been manifested such an absorbing interest as Is felt in the match that is about to take place be tween the renowned Ucd Stockings or Cincin nati and tbe famous Athletics of this city champions of the Uuilcd Slates. liie unparaucica career of tne former and the superb play exhibited by the champions during the past season have heightened the inte rest to such a pitch that It seems to exceed all bounds. As early as 9 o'clock this morning the crowd began to assemble outside the ground, and when the gates were opened at noon two or thrco thousand rushed in to secure seats. At this hour (3 1. M ) there are over 1KXX) people within tne enclosure, and probably halt that number are congregated outside, covering housetops, fences, trees, and other points of elevation within a radius of a quarter of a mile. me norse-cars running in tne direction oi the ground are crowded to excess, and thou sands line the sidewalks on all the avenuos leading to the grounds. The day opened clear and pleasant, with a glaring sun and a slight rclreshtng west wina. ine grounds are in the best possible condition, and everything seems favorable for a fair and well-fought battle between the celebrated clubs. The betting: lat niirht was one hundred in favor of the Red Stockings, but to-day even wagers find ready takers. An immense amount of money has been staked on the issue, and the iriends ot botn ciuos are so connaent ot success, they are deposed to risk their last dollar on their favorites. A great change in sentiment has taken place with regard to the strength of the Athletics within the past month, and it is now claimed and generally conceded that they have a "nine" ot such material that Is second to none n the country. The Athletics, in addition to their regular club flag, fly a streamer to-day. on which is the word "Champion," and the immense crowd cheerfully endorse them In their claim, notwith standing the absurd statement of the Atlantics, of Brooklyn, that the game of Monday last was merely a practice game. nasi'. M. tne uea stockings party nave just made their appearance on tbe field, and were gieeted with tremendous cheers by the crowd. Both clubs commenced to pass the all around, and tbe respective captains are looking up an umpire. FROM WASniJVOTOJV. Distillation of llrnndy. Sptcial Despatch to the Evening Telcgraoh.

Special Despatch to The Evening Telegraph. The Hons select committee on the resolution re- ?ulrlDg W. Scott Smith, of the New York Evening 'o$t, to show aause, it he can, why he should not be expelled rrom tbe reporters' gallery tor certain publi cations in that paper, to-day made a report. After stating all that appeared before them, they say that in their judgment Representatives Fitch and McCor niick stand completely exonerated rrom all charge or suspicion even or any complicity in any or the schemes for sustaining the Cuban cause by the use of improper Influences. In considering the resolution of expulsion of Smith, the question of legal rights and liabilities of the con ductors or the press comes properly under review. The law upon this subject has kept pace with the advance ot free principles in other respects. A free press Is the lire or free government. The represen tatives ot the people are but their servants and' agents, and it is or the highest Importance that they have this means of Information as to the conduct or their representatives on all matters or public con cern. The public press find this the only means of making such Information known to the people. It should therefore be allowed the most unlimited freedom consistent with Individual rights and indi vidual reputations. In former times the publica tion of proceedings of judicial tribunals and par liamentary bodies was not privileged If they re flected injuriously npon private character, but the law is now settled that such reports are entirely privileged, providing they are fairly and honestly reported. So all conduct of public men on public matters are fair subjects of discussion and com ment In the public press, subject only to the condi tion that they are made honestly aud upon reasona ble grounds ol belief in their truth. The committee are satlstled that Mr. Smith had no wanton or malicious purpose to defame or mallgtt either Mr. Fitch or Mr. McCormlck. Ills fault was In not exercising caution in relation to the autho rity upon which he made bis statements, and his failure in this respect Is to be attributed to that somewhat excessive anxiety and rivalry among correspondents to provide for their respective em ployers earlier and more startling news than any other. The most that can be made of Taylor's aflldavlt is that propositions or offers had been made to mem bers, and not that any had accepted. The assump tion was clearly unjustlilable. While the committee consider tbe correspondent or the Eotning 1'ont haa not been without fault, they are also or opinion that his fault is not or such a flagrant character as to Justify his expulsion rrom the gallery, or even to warrant any formal resolution oi censure, i ney, therefore, recommend that tbe resolution referred to them be laid on the table.
