Ko Contrition ixpicssed.bnt the .Moderator Weeps OTer Them. TWO ilOIlE CASES ARE YET TO BE TEIED While it is more than probable that the trouble ni the 11. I. Church, which has filled "VVilkinsburg from center to circum ference with orthodoxy this week, cannot be covered by all the ccclesiastic.il court plaster in the world, and while to outsiders, especially worldlings, the difference may not seem much more important than that between tweedle-dum and tweedle-dee, yet there is & grandeur of conviction about the struggle that commands respect, if not ad miration. AVhen strong men lose themselves so far as to shed tears over the dissolution of re ligious relations, it argues an intensity of belief that must carry with it con viction, unless base motives are imputed, and any one who has made a few hours study of the "Wilkinsburg gathering will not impute them to all of either party. As an evidence of this feeling and its in tensity, a member of Ucv. O. B. Milligan's congregation said to a reporter: "Rev. H. H. George, D. D., said that these young men had not shown themselves to be guilty of any criminal act of any kind, and then voted to sustain the libel and suspend them from the ministry." He also said: "They may send us a pastor, but they had better send with him a congregation and his salary, also, lor we will furnish neither." Sow Rev. H. H. George stands as firmly as a rock, and says that if the K. P. Church has not a mision, and that to force the rec ognition oi Jesus Christ as the head ot the nation, it is only a schism, and had better dissolve and lose its identity. The interest yesterday was more than at anv previous stage of the proceedings, not withstanding the result had been discounted by the friends of the accused. 0 EFFORT TO 5111 CE WORDS. As soon as Dr. McAlister, the moderator, had concluded his prayer for divine guid ance, Eev. "W. H. Temple resumed his re buttal argument for the defence. It was a power'cl effort, and elicited encomiums from the prosecution. Bevs. Samson, Heed and E M. Hilligan also made no effort to mince words, and the latter said the difference between him and the Synod was that he believed the Bible should be not only tbe supreme law ot the nation, bat of tbe church also. He held that ministers w ere only bound by ,synodicaI opinions so far as tlipy were backed by a "thus saith the Lord " At the conclusion of his address the court took a recess. On reassembling Moderator McAlister stated that tbe lirst thing in order was the vote to sustain or not to sustain the libel, and told tbe members that the must rise and ote and ncre allowed 2 minutes each in which to cue reasons lor ibe same, anil ith the parting statement of Rev E. il. Milligan that his faith and that of his fellow-defendants was built on the "foundation of apostle prophets and martyrs. Jesus Christ, the cnicf corner stone." the voting began and resulted as folio us To sustain : Messrs. H. A. Bole. D. R. Brown, S G "ornor, J F Crczier, John A. Dodd. It C. Dodds.

Milligan asked if be be allowed the right to challenge Be ob jected to the totes of Messrs. VV. R. Laird, J. A. Dodds and R.J. George, the first being cbirgcd with bating said there would be no peace so long as E M. Milligan was a member, and the last that the accused should have at owed their opinions when orclalneil. and that they were subv ersive tf tho fundamental law of the church. Mr Laird made an explanation that satisfied Mr. Milligan. Ret. O. B. Milligan expressed astonishment at the gall (or a term svuonvmous) of Mr. Leslie, in voting, after a declaration made, but the Moderator decided that he couldn't go be h.nd tho returns. Mer. Kilpatnck and Wilson asked to be excused from voting, on account of having been the prosecuting attorneys, and their re quest was gmntcil Mr. Matthew Steel excited some merriment in !oniP pcopic, tu his recital ol tho crawling, upthc-hick letlrag he had cxueiieiiced when be read m the newspapers that the accused were members of a secret societj When the Moderator announced the tote and its consequcrces, the libel being sustained. Rev. Mr Reed demanded a statement of reason-, but Dr. McAlister said they were under stood, and relused to so into the matter. AH the defendants now arose and gave notice of an appeal, Mr. Temple statins that he wanted a decision on the subject of what con st! .iteil li visit e causes. TLequt-ticmof tho effect of the sentence was discussed at some length. Rev. Mi. Crozier feelingly asked that it be so framed as to ive the defendants a chance to recoant. Rev. Mr. Reed "anted to know if it suspended their 'tiatio-iship as privates, and the Moderator -aid it did not destroy the pastoral relation; meiel) suspended it. Dr. '-pruull niovcu that expulsion should not take effect until after Svnoo had decided the u atter, and on tins cot tin support of Rev. H. H George, ti hen Prof. Wilson demanded tbe ate: and noes. A motion to tanlc tias lest, and the original motion passed. When the accused were called up for sen tence. Dr. R. G George moved that thev be given an opportunity to express contrition, but none was shown. SLNXEhCLD BY THE MODERATOR. Moderator McAlister next called tbe young men up for sentence, first oSering a fertent prayer for cuidance, which brought tears to mant etes. He then pronounced tbe sentence of suspension on account uf the heinous sin of blowing dit imvc courses. Rev. H. H. George paid a high tribute to tbe abilitv of tho suspended ministers, and urged That the olive branch still lie held out to them. 1 he next question discuscd was. who should prosecute the case before the Synod? Rev. Ir Kilpatnck suggested Dr McAlister and Dr R. J. George, both he and Prof. Wilson re fusing u longer endure tbe strain After somo ueluio. m wbicn Dr. Sproull took a prominent pait. Rev Mr Kilpatrick's motion pretailcd flie report of the committee in reference to tbe case of Rets. J R. J. Milligan and A. VV. McClurkiu next came up. aud toe supplement ary report of Dr Spioulland R. J. George was received and approved, and the accused called up to get their quinine Rev. Mr. Mil ligan arraigned Messrs. snroull and George rather bitterly, and said ho thought tbe matter hid been settled. Ho said he did not allude to tbe business that, called him away to attract sympathy (Laughter, he going off on a wedding trip). Mescrs. Wilson, R. J. George and Sproull ana Milligan had several sharp passages at arms, aim Dr. Sproull frankly admitted that he had been laboring under a mistake, thinking lie was part of a commission, and not of a committee, and therefore empowered to make a settle ruent, and tuathehail given the right hand of fellowship on supposed settlement, in good faith. Prof. Wilson denied that he had acted In a manner to give Mr. Milligan tbe impres.ion that the committee was a commission em powered t" settle the mattei. Rev. II. H. George finally made the point that this was ouly a matter ot explanation among members of the committee, with which the Prt-sbjtery bad nothing to do, and tbe Moderator agreed with him. AS TO A FURTHER LIBEL. Rev. Mr. Crozier moved that tho Judicial Committee be irstructed to prepare another libel, but Dr. Sproull thought It unnecessary, a sample notification by the clcrU of Presbytery beiug sufficient. Rev. H. H. George suggested thatthcj waive that formality tnd let Presby tery get to work in the case at once. 1 rot. McClnrkin said he'd rather have it out at once, but Mr. Milligan said he had rather bo tried alone, and "anted time for prcDaration. It should have been stated before, that both re fused to express contrition for their participa tion in the East End organization' doings Thei agreed to accept notice by mail, and their tr.al w as fixed for January 13, at the same place. Ihc general opinion seemed to be ainouir tho members of the church not immediately con nected with tbe trial that the (It wonld be another secession from the cbnrcb like that of 1S33, and those who adhered to the ancient order sav that there isrto help for it, as the ad mission of the claims of the accused is a total disruption of the church. That each side could nresene such rigid inflexibility aud not get into a row was a matter of wonder. The nession ended with a fervent prayer by Prof. Wilson, in which he not only prayed for guidance on the deliberations to come, but for the newspaper men. and asked that their re ports of the proceedings might not tend to tho prejudice of tbe cause In which the hopes of the members of the church aro bound up. KOBBIHG THE IUDIAHS. A Flan on Foot to Grab the Rich Lands of the Southern TJtes. Miss M. Peabody, President of the Woman's Indian Association, at Its meeting yesterday made a flattering report of tbe national con vention held in Boston recently. A letter from one of tbe acttvo agents of tbe societv in Colorado was read. It contained tho statement that a strong effort will be made at tbe present session of Congress to pass a bill to effect the removal of the Southern TJtes from their rich lands in Colorado to a wild and mountainous country in Utah. This removal, the letter represents, is dictated b a number of land grabbers whose ol jeet is to possess themselves of the rich lajid cultivated by the Utes. Tbe passage of this hill the letter 6ays, would make nugatory tbe efforts made to civil ize the Indians as a solntion of the Indian problem lies in tbe sanction of the Government of the right of posses-ion to the Indians of tbe land thoy have cultivated, and in which tbey are interested. The latter advises the society to correspond with Representative Hooker, of Mississippi, who is a humanitarian and if rcque-tcd would exert bis influ ence to prevent tbe passago of tho bill. The sccretarv was ordered to address Mr. Hooker and tho rcpresentttives in Congress from Pennsjlvania, aud other prcminent men of the Stale to secure their aid to defeat the bill ir it is introduced. A letter was read from Miss De Knight, a teacher ot the Chilacco Indian school in tho Indian Territory. Thts is a Government school, and has an attendanco of over GOO Indian chil dren who are taught maay of tbe useful trades in connection with the school branches. A more commodious school is being built thero, as tbe present one is too small. The letter gave a charming picture of the lives of the little In dian', their susceptibility to any act of kind ness, and of the interest tbey manifested in the observance of Thanksgiving Day and of tho preparations tbey were making to celebrate Christmas in a royal manner as becomes loyal little Christians.

Agent Berryman examined tbe contents of the horse's stomach, which went to show that it had not been starved as reported.
