Tbe Philadelphia Presbytery (South) continued lis
tr-ftsions this morning; in Calvary Presbyterian
Charon, Locust street above Fifteenth, the Modera
tor tn the chatr.
The morning session was opened with devotional
exercises of a naif honr'sduraunn.
The minutes of he previous meeting were read by
the stated clerk, Rev. Wllllard M. Rice, and after
several corrections had been made, were approved.
Rev. HerrlcK Johnson was excused from attend
ance et the last session of the presbytery, on account
of the monthly concert of prayer In' his own cburc.l,
at which he was obliged to be present.
Tbe names of several ministers were placed upon
the roll, they living within the bounds or the pros-,
bytery.
Several other excuses were sustained from vari
ous members for absence at the last session.
Several corresponding members were admitted.
The Standing Committee on Appolntmei.t or Com
mittees made a report In part of the names, of the
members of various committees who were obliged to
report at this meeting of the presbytery. The report
was adopted so far as presented.
It was moved that, owing to the necessities of the
case, the usual routine adopted for the spring meet
iDg of the presbytery be this .year adopted at the
present fall meeting. Agreed to.
It was moved that It be a stated rnle of the pres
bytery that all excuses for absence be received and
reported upon by the stated clerk. Agreed to.
A motion was made that a standing committee of
one Joe appointed to co-operate with the Standing
Committee on Assessments, the latter committee
having too much work to do. Agreed to.
On motion the stated clerk was directed to con
tinue bis practice of notifying the members of the
meeting of the presbytery by circular.
On motion the Pine Street Church was fixed as the
place of the next meeting. ,
A communication was received from Rev. Mr,
Dullls asking to be excused for absence from the
meeting, and asking that the presbytery should take
action and approve of his change of church rela
tions, lie hail lecn appointed a secretary or one
of the boards, which oillce, on being accepted, neces
sitated the resignation of his pastoral charge. The
rommunlcalion was received, the excuses accepted
and Mr. Dullis was referred to the standing rules on
the employment of members as covering the whole
grnnod embraced In his petition.
The Committee on the Minutes of the General
Assembly reported several Items from the minutes
which required the Immediate action of the pres
bytery. The report was received and placed npon the
docket for consideration at another time during the
Bpssion.
on motion the presbytery proceeded to the con
sideration of the state of religion in the Church,
which was to serve as the basis of the narrative to
be presented to the General Assembly. The roll was
culled and each pastor was allowed three minutes to
state the condition of his charge.
The rcportalrom mostoi the churches were very
encouraging. The attendance at the public services
had Increased, a larger number of prayer meetings
had been held, and the churches financially were in
a more flourishing condition.
The case of the Woodland Presbyterian Church,
West Philadelphia, was taken up. On account of
some difliculty the pastor, Jiev. Mr. Radcliir, asks
permission to resigo. The subject had previausly
been placed in the hands of commissioners who
were empowered to examine into the subject.
Thete commissioner made their report, and the
pastor stated his aide of the case. lie said that the
congregation has at last acquiesced In his request to
resign. Theditllculties la the church are of a finan
cial character. A radical change is desired in the
administration. A large sum of money must be
raised or the church must be Bold. It Is thought
that if the pastor would resign the money would be
raised.
It was stated that some members of the congrega
tion had said they would subscribe the money if the
pastor resigned.
Considerable discussion took place on the subject.
Great objection was made to giving Mr. Kadcliif
permission to resign if this was the only reason why
the resignation was desired. Some members said
that they would vote for giving the permission in
order to give comfort to Mr. Radcliff, but they
wished the church to know that they were pursuing
a very object ionable course.
Others said that they eonld not conscientiously
vote for such action even for the pastor's comfort.
The churches had no right to displace a man who
had been sent by God, just because his personal
attractions are not enough to fill the church, and so
defray all Its expenses easily. No ene or two men
In a congregation should have the right to make an
offer of this kind, and especially when the object Is
to procure the services of what is known as a sen
sational preacher.
The pastor stated that he asked for permission
only because the place had been made uncomfort
able, not because there was any danger of the dis
solution or the church. Whether It should go or
stay, there are those In the congregation on both
sides who would be responsible for Its continuance.
The situation was at present Jsueh that the useful
ness of the pastor Is greatly Impaired, and be cannot
and will not continue any longer In the connection.
t On motion permission was given for him to resign.
A motion was also adopted stating that the resig
nation would be accepted with regret.
On motion, the session of the Woodland Churcl
was appointed a standing committee to iupply Its
pulpit for the present.
Mr. Dana was appointed Moderator of the Wood
land Church Session In the absence of the pastor.
After more unimportant business the presbytery
adjourned until 3 P. M.

Mnsefor (he Repose eT tbe sjoul of the Great
Pianist.
Cherubim's mass In O minor was yestertlay
sung over the remains of Louis Moreau Gotts
chalk in St. Stephen's Church, in East Twenty
eiehth street- The edifice was crowded, in spite
of the heavy rain which threatened, at early
morn, to prevent the attendance of a numerous
assemblage. The body of the lamented pianist
lay In a leaden coffin inclosed In a mahogany
shell, so wen had the embaimers done their
work that the face was that of a man over
whom tne List 6lee bad come but a few hours
previous. Masf-ei of flowers eurroudded the
bier, the gift of Messrs. Hall & Son, the pub
lishers and steadfast friends of the dead, and
of Messrs. Chickering it Sons. The re
quiem was sung by a double quartette
choir from the Sixteenth Street Church, and by
the Berge Choral I'nioD, Dr. Merge conducting.
Gottscbalk's "Last Hope," with words fitted to
the occasion, and written by his sister, Miss
Clara Gottschalk, was interwoven with the
offertory, and '"Morte," the last composition of
the departed musician the one concerning
which he wrote to the Messrs. Hall that it
would be performed nt his funeral, and during
the rendering of which he was prostrated by the
illness that resulted in his death was heard
during the services, as were also two other
works his "Pensee Poetiquo" and his ''Funeral
March." The pall-tearers were Mr. Charles
Vezin, of Philadelphia (executor of the Gotts
chalk estate), Mr. C. F. Chickering., Mr. L. J.
Descombes (with whom Gottschalk dwelt when
in this city) Mr. Richard Hoffman, pianist, Mr.
George W. Warren, organist, Thomas J. Hall,
Esq., Mr. W. K. Bassford, pianist, and Mr.
Watson. The religious ceremonies ended, the
body was removed to Greenwood Cemetery,
where it was placed in a vault jnst now pur
chased for the family by the sisters of the do
ceased artist. Arrangements are now progress
ingand we hope will be perfected for the
holding of a grand memorial concert, the pro
ceeds of which are to be devoted to the erec
tion of a monument worthy of the genius of the
departed musician. JV. 1. Times fo-day.

The Htnte Department.
Special Vnxxitck to Ths livening Telegraph.
Washington. Oct. 4. It seems to be under
stood in administration circles that npon the
retirement of Secretary Fish tho portfolio of
the State Department will be offered to General
Hiram E. Wal bridge, of New York. Certain
parties have ridiculed the idea of Grant offering
the place to Walbrldge, but they are evidently
not posted in what is going on between the
President and his advisers. Your correspondent
has een certain correspondence which appears
to indicate that the President has bad his eye
upon Walbridge for the place ever since it be
came certain that Fish had positively deter
mined to resign. Walbritle is backed by
Greeley and his class of New York politicians.
Tbe change will in all probability be made
before the meeting of Congress, as Mr. Fish
wishes to give up.hU domestic establishment
here before winter, so that he c.va return to
New York.
Tennem.ee Politico.
Mr. Crawford, formerly law-partner of An
drew Johnson, in Greenvllle,Tenne6,see,but now
of this city, has received a letter from Green
ville stating that the Democratic Convention to
nominate, a member of Congress for that (lis
trict broke up in a row, owing to the fact that
Johnson's friends would not 6ubmit to any can
didate being agreed upon except Andy. The
opposition to Jonnson pressed the nomination
of a man named White. A call has been issued
for reassembling the Convention, and it is un
derstood that for the sake of harmony and in
order to secure the defeat of Butler, Mr.
White will withdraw and allow Andy Johnson
to be nominated. Upon the breaking up "of the
Convention Johnson's friends called upon him,
when he maee them a speech, saying he hadn't
intended again to enter public .life, but that if
he received' the unanimous nomination of his
district, he would consent to be a candidate for
the purpose of redeeming tho district from the
disgrace of ttfiing represented by a man like
Butler. The writer of tho letter states that
Johnson will be nominated without opposition
when the Convention re-assembles.
A Regular Cabinet Meeting
was held to-day- All the members were present
except Secretary Cox, who was represented by
Asl6tant Secretary Otto.

Blank Receipt, Stamps.
Despatch to the Associated Pres
It may be of interest to persons owning unused
blank receipts having tbe internal revenue
stamp of two cents imprinted thereon, the tax
upon which was repealed by the act of July 14,
1870, on and after October 1, 1870, to know that
upon returning such stamped blanks to the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue free of ex
pense they may receive other stamps of equal
value for which they may have use. This ar
rangement will afford relief to a large 'number
of business men who have had their blank re
ceipts stamped within a recent period and who
can have no use for them by reason of a repeal
of the tax.
