From Washington• • WastuNaTON, Sy , orrniss Ins roslTtort. Senator liondereon, of Y,islou 9, has addressel the following letter to the MissOnri Congressional dole la "Vann , GITOI4 CITY, May 14, 1S(1 Gertmencp. In an interview with you, the day before yesterday, you suggested that my position on the impeachment question was against the almost unanimous wish of the Union party of our State, and that yon feared violence and bloodshed might follow the Pitesidt-nt's acquittal. Inasmuch as I owed my position here to that party, and expected to support its men and mongols In the coming canvass es pecially, and as I deprecated the consequences you thought might follow, although I did not anticipate nor fear any such re, ults. yet in order to place myself beyond the possible censure o those whom I knew to be my beat frtends, I at once proposed to forward to the Governor my resignation as senator. To this you did not consent: and I then requested you as my friends to consult together and determine what you thought was proper for me to do under the circum stances. "lon did so, and the result was, that believing that the safety of the country and the interests of the loyal people of the United States demand the imme diate removal of Andrew Johnson, you asked me to withhold my vote on any article of impeachment upon which Pk say 'I cannot vote affirmatively,' So soon as I had time to read and considerthis paper I found I could not comply with the requelit without that de gree of humiliation and shame, to which I was satis fied you, as honorable men, would not wish to subject me. I had already spoken in the Senate, and I thought conclusively (at least so to my mind), against eight of theihicies, and had informed you, that I was no less decided in my judgment against the sufficiency of two others, leavititi me in doubt only as to one. If with these clear convictions, expressed in fult Senate, I should =wait silent, I would forfeit my own self respect and stand defenselese before the world. You agreed to reconsider your Opinion as expressed, and although you at first resolved to adhere to it, I am gratified that upon further reflection you agreed with me, that the request was quite unreasonable, but you still insisted, as your opinionothat my duty required my vote to be cast or withheld; as I might deem necessary, on some one artffile, as to secure Conviction. I at once mentioned the difficulty at tending this suggestion. Senators bad been and were still so reticent on the subject, that I could not ascertain their position's. I knew them to be greatly divided on the several articles, and they were even liable to change their minds, at any moment before the final vote should be taken; but as you expressed a desire that I should not resign unless it became absolutely necessary to have'a successor In my place favorable to conviction, I promised to give you the result of my conclusions, so soon as I could ascertain the probable result on or two of the articles. I have endeavored to ascertain that result. I cannot and I now write you to say, and be assured that I say it in that spirit of friendship and kindness which you have always extended to me, and which now undiminished I have ever entertained for you, that your request on this subject placed me in the most difficult and delicate possible position. lam satisfied you do not realize it. I have given it the most serious consideration, both on year and my account, and especially on account of the gravity and importance of the subject presented. "The result of that consideration is, that having been compelled, as a member of the Senate, to trice en oath to try this case, and to do impartial justice ac cording to the law and the evidence, I cannot now honorably escape the duties imposed by the obligation. It was for the House of Representatives to prefer the articles of impeachment; it is for the Senate to try them—and the members of the Rouse have no more right to dictate or control the judgment of the Senate, in the premises, than members of a grand jury, pre seating an indictment, have to dictate or influence the verdict of the petit jury in the trial of crime. "And I do not thus speak, for the purpose of reilec Ma on your action, for I distinctly disclaim such purpose, knowing as I do that what you Imo done and said Borings from the beet of motives, as well as the kindest of feelings. "My duty in the premises I cannot.shirk, nor can I divide it with others. If I resign before the condo Sion of the trial, it strikes me that I make sport of the obligations of my oath, and unnecessarily subject myself to the imputation of weakness, or something worse. If I remain, and do my duty, my constituents at preeent mny condemn me, but will not when they hear my reasons, and the people of Missouri have no reason or desire. I hope. to strike me down without a hearing. If I stay, and withhold my vote. a 4 you re quest, you are aware that the result would be the same as if I voted adversely. "It I resign and a successor should come, perhaps a proper sense of delicacy would prevent him from vio lating every precedent on this subject, by casting a vote at all. If he sat silent it would be the same in result as if he voted adversely. If he voted affirma tively and thus secured conviction, the manner of obtaining conviction would be likely to neutralize In the end every advantage to be derived from impeach ment. Hence I have resolved to remain at my post and discharge my duty as it is given me to know it; and appealing to heaven for the rectitude of my inten tions and the integrity of my conduct, I shall follow the dictates of my conscience to the end of this trial, and throw myself upon the judgment of a generous people for my vindication. "Your friend, "J. B. HENDERSON. "To Messrs. George W. Anderson, William A. Pile, C. A. Newcomb, J. J. Gravely, J. W. McClurg, B. F. Loan and J. F. Benjamin." ILth OONGRESS.--SEUOND SESSION. CLORE OP YESTERDAY'S PROCEEDING& Howse of Representatives. The House, at half-past oue, prodded to the con sideration of the bill to admii the States of North Car. ohne, South Csrolina, Louisiana, Georgia and Ala bama to representation in Congress. Mr. PEVYN, of New York, addressed the House ho opposition to the bill. The gentleman from Penneyl vents (Mr. Stevens), he said, was entitled to the credit or must bear the odium of the reconstruction measure but it was to be said to that gentleman's honor, that he had at ad times boldly expressed his views, am, maintained them with all the ability for which he is distinguished, and he had btougbt his party friends up to his own standard. Re reminded the House that the theory which was orlgindted by Mr.,ltitevens as to the Southern States being conquered provinces had been received with strong disapprobation by President Lincoln's Cabinet. It was, in fact, adirect. censure upon Mr. Lincoln, but the views of that gentleman had been boldly carried out, and bad resulted in measures before the Rouse. The ten minutes allowed Mr. Pruyn expired before he was able to finish his argument, and then Mr "Biopics took the door in opposition to the bill. tie remarked that the representatives of the revolution- ' ary measure of the Renee were not in their seats, but were, as he was informed, assembled elsewhere in the basement of the t;spitol concocting measures for a further impeachment. of the Executive, and for the final overthrow of that bra.ch of • the governmeat' [Here Mr. Brooks noticed that Mr. Stevens was or', cupyif g a seat at the Clerk's desk]. The other mem bers of that revolutionary junto were, however, he said, elsewhere plotting, leaving the gentleman from Pentsvlvanla to attend to his measure. That'gentleman, lie said, was the master spirit and controller not only of th' legislation of the House, bet more or less of the country. Whatever measures the. gentleman seriously proposed were quite sure, sooner or later, to become the law of the country. The gun tieman trout Ohio (Mr. Bingham) bad stated yesterday that the gentleman from Pennsylvania did riot carry all his measures. It was, however, the art of revoke Deplete of the highest order often to present measure; tar beyond public opinion, or beyond the represeuta lives of public opinion, onpurpose to drag the lazy and indolent and the cowardly up to the mark. Th.: bill to give a public school system to the District of cnituribia by which white and black children were to be educated together, was the on y matter in which the eel:die:man from Pennsylvania had failed, and even in that he Mould yet succeed. If the impeachment scheme seemed likely to be a failure. the only prospect of its success was rind tr.- ',toed ty be en the eleventh article, framed by the gentleman from Pennsylvania, and if the measure ottoula fail, the gentleman (Mr. btevene) would never sleep day or night until he obtained some other meaua of getting articles of impeachment througu the House. It Was to be bare Of Fnccese in the Senate by having twenty additional Senators Lbere that this bill was be- Jim forced through, and hence five States were being grouped ID one hill, and five constiiiitions all huddled togetber,whlch he was sure members of the Rouse had not read through. From the best computation he had been able to make, there were twenty-five ttiouiand white people in those States deprived or the right of suffrage, and compelled to pay taxes without having the right of representation. Talking of the carpe- beggers, he said that there were hanging manna toe Capitol two Yankee delegates from the state of Floe lea, who had not been long enough from their Stafaat !o have got rid of their nasal twang. • „ Mr. biltratia, " of Pennsylvania , remarkea that rurlda was not embraced in the bill beton tale House, and that he agreed with the gentleman from New York in • what he said about Florida. He added that he was determined to agree withahe gentleman, .but that he had not liked to let him know It before hand. . Mr. Barents said he was happy to have the endorse ment of 'the gentleman from Peonsy Nelda, but their Yorke° friends were not limited to the little State of Florida, but had to up also in Geatgia, Alanarna, South Carolina; and elsewhere.. •Of the two men ap plying to be admitted as Senators from Arkansas, ono was from Uattaraugus . County, New York, and the other from Pennsylvania. Both were squatters: both carpet baggers and if they were aditted, then the State of New York would have three senators and the btate of Pennsylvania three Senators. Mr. Pattiz addressed the House in advorfacy of the bill, as to the objection made to the sectton of the booth Carolina Constil talon giving extended j aria diction to justices of the peace. It was copied liter ally from the lowa constitution, and as to the other Sections objected to, they wore copied from the con stitutions of several other Northern States. He re plied briefly to the objeations made to the various sections of the Constitution in .the protest made by the white people of the State of South Carolina. He believed 1 hat no member of the House , could find any excuse In the protest for rejecting either of the con stitutions presented. Mr. Bismii followed on the same side of the question. P ublic interest, he said, required the res toration of dices States to the Union. Teat was the general object Of the bill, and in so far it had his en tire approval; and it was his purpose to support the bill, not because he was satisfied with all its details, but because, under the circumstances, it was Molest that could he doe for the public. It ill bemire rlentlemeti who represented the Demo cratic party to be saying a word about the constitu tions of those State.; because if there was one fact more clearly eatailltated in the history of the Repub lic than another, it was thelact which had drenched the land iu blood, that constitutions containing des potism ilad,never beep repealed by the action of their own people in the interests of humanity bat had re ceivedthe , u nited vote, of the Democratic party. He had nothing but contempt for the pretension of those apostled of constitutional liberty, and neither had the Arnericati people. :Mr. Wooowearin remarked that the contempt was reciprocated. • BENOIIAM went on to argue against that clams of the bill which provides that the constitutions of these States shall never be changed so as to deprive any citizen or claps of citizens of the right to vote who are now entitled to vote. He showed that the consti tutions of these States named, some recoiling a resi dence of twelve months in the State and thirty days' residence in the county before a person shall have the right to vote, and others requiring a residence of only six months In the State and ton days in the coun ty or pariah, and ho argued that it would be illogical to declare that the provisions in that respect should nev er be dissimilated. WOODEEIDGE moved to amend the bill by strik ing out the word Alabama, wherever it occurred. on the ground that a majority of the registered voters of Alabama had not voted in favor of the Constitution, asnrovided in the reconstruction law. Mr FARNSWOBTII replied to this argument by de nying that such was the requirement of the law, and asserting that the provision Was only that Congress should be satisfied that a majority of the people of the Statevere in favor of it. tie declared that a larger proportion of the registered voters of Alabama had voted for the Constitution than in any other of the States. Mr. BENJAMIN moved to amend by striking out of the first section the clause prohibiting a change of the Constitution, and inserting instead of it the words "that the constitutions of said Statea never shall be altered or changed so as to discriminate in,„ favor of or against any citizen or class of citizens of the United States In reference to the right to vote who are now entitled to vote by said constitutions." Mr. 81N611A31 said he would accept that as a sub stitute for his own amendment. Mr.ltarrai asked leave to offer the following amend ment : " Audit is hereby made the duty of the Pres ident, within ten days after receiving official inform a. tion of the ratification of said amendment by the Legislature of either of said States, to issue a procla mation announcing that fact." alr. STEVENS-1 agree to that. It is part of the bill now. Mr. Bnoaryrzo.n made some remarks in criticism and condemnation of the Democratic party. The question was taken on Mr la• odbridge's amendment to strike out Alabama, and it was rejected —yeas 60, nays 74, as follows: Yeas—Messrs.

Be said: Mr. Speak , r--I do not expect to be heard over this House, but what I say will be said in such manner that those why choose to be quiet will hear it. Our friends on the other side have to-day pursued the same tactics which they have pursued partially. though not to the same extent,in what tuey have been pleased to call argument, for the last eight or ten years—that is, not arguing thaquestion, bat arguing to a man. For ten years no man on that side of the louse has risen or an important question, but that a uerson en tering the gallery would think that 1 was on trial for some offense. Four-fifths of the time of the gentleman from New York (Mr. Drools) is always consumed in attacks, it you choose to call it so, on the gentleman from Penn• sylvania, not on his measures, or on the one ho may he advocating. I call upon every high-minded man here to say whether that course of argument so long and so persistently pursued, is an honorable or a dis honorable course of argument. Gentlemen need not flatter themselves by supposing that I take to mysalt their remarks as flattering unction to my soul, or that I suppose: them to be intended .for the purpose of ex ailing me. I say to my brethren, all of iis.being equal, that it is intended as a disgrace to them. It is ti.nat ded, under pretense of exalting one, to degrade all the where. Does the gentleman from New York (Slr. Brooks) believe—for such is his argument--that by nppeaitng to the envy or ambition of gentlemen around me he can excite them to action, becauge I happen to berm a particular course? Does he suppose that this excessive and unnecessary ana unjustified praise of one indi vidual is so to excite the ambition or rather toe envy of the rest of the members as to induce them to forget the arts—the low arts of low cunning, of low argument --not of low gentlemen, but of:gentlemen who use low language? For the first time in the course ten years I have alluded to this unfair, this offensive line of argument on behalf of gentlemen on the other side of the House. Excuse me, therefore, if, when I hive said this, I shall pass it over and pretermit three-fourths of the same kind of what the gentleman from New York !bought was argument -• I have no doubt but he thouglatit was—ln his tide against one individual and in depreciation of one hundred and forty others. Now, then, a single word as to the. bill. We have for so as months past been listening to the clamor of outside gentlemen, transformed for the worse from Demo crats into the crawling things called "copperheads." We have beard from, them for months and months past, long complaints because the Repub'ican partv refused to allow the rebel States to participate in thesethalls of Congress • , •• We have been told that all our acts were illegimate, anti would be so declared; so much so that the radical gentleman at the head of the government—for he was as radical as I was the last time I talked to him, just before the Sgd of February, (I have not seen him sin e, and I take no reports about what be: has been doing since)--obeying this clamor, and yielding to the pop ular wieb,eatablishing eleven military governments in those outlying Slates, Congress, some time after, not liking exactly the kind of men he appointed to rule there, took upon it to assert its prerogative, to pass laws called the recknstrection laws, to make use of certain military men in carrying those laws into exe cution, and to-day we have heard the most hitter de nunciations against Congress for establishing a mill- Lazy despotism. Uow consistent all this is I leave to other gentle men to judge. It does not require much argument. But there is a great complaint that negroes are to be let in to govern this country, and that in framing thee constitutiona there were in 601110 places riots. and In other places stalling of the ballot-boxes. I regret that those votes had not been taken before the testimony was taken and published in the case of Dodge Spinet Brooks, for it showed precisely the same kind of conduct in that district which the gen tleman hue described as taking place in these. Mr. Breams—ln that case they turned me out of Congress, and in this case they admit all these States in. That is the difference. - - - - Mr. B=l , lo:B—They turned the gentleman out be cause. I suppose—l do not know, I` hope not—no either did or did not head those mobs. We let t.buao billies in because the legal voters did not head the mobs, and were beaded by men who were afraid of , negro rule. Bat the gentleman protests against these constitutions because black men were allowed to vote. I advise the cerium an to become a drx atibt, and to make a second play Or RIP Vail Winkle, now so well played by that admirable actor, Me. Jef ferson lies the gentleman been asleep ter the last three years? Does he not knew that when he went to THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN-PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, MAY 15, 1868. sleep this country was covered with elaves and despot ism? Let him now wake up and call to him his dog &wider (laughter), and let him look about, and he will find no despotism, he will find no slavery, he nude no bondage within the broad limita.of this fair land, which Goa made free, and which man in :do . lave, and • which now again God .has made free through the agency of the infernal regions, in war and in mood shed. and which I trust the Almighty ruler will never again permit to be made slave. Iu other words, I trust that Be will never permit I ho. Democratic party to gain the ascendency, for lint so mini as it does, that same spirit or despotism which disgraced this nation for centuries will again riot, for it Is rank in the breast of every man whom may call their liferlor, and who would yet be, inferior to them ift/tey could wield the lash over his back I trust, therefore, the gentleman will llnd that we do mean that ever; man in this Republic, whether he be hl mit or while, or rich or poor, whether he come from the Bast or from the West, from the North or from the South. from the rising or from the setting son, is as free and as much his own governor as the goutietuin from New York or myself; and I am sure there is not one who is not as worthy to bo so as either of is. Let it never again be heard in these halls that we object to institutions because they allow all bellies with immortal souls in their bodies to take part in the goven.ment under which they are to serve, under which they aro to live, under which they are to rear their children, and under which they are to die ! I therefore say, at once, that I have no apology to offer for the admission that we intend that these men shall have aright to compete in intellect, in ()clones. and in religion, with the gentleman from New York and his constituents of the " Five Points," with my self and my honest yeomanry around me, and with all the people of the nation ; and let him who is the most worthy—who climbs highest on the ladder of merit, of science, of intellect, of morality—be the ruler, ac cording to law, of all his other sluggard neighbors, no matter what may be their color, no matter what may he their pretenalons, and no matter who they are, whether they are men of nobility or whether they are men of the common rank. Indulge no longer that vain idea that any man of sufficient age and intellect Is to be stricken out of his share in the ruling of this country, Never again, Ittust—never again, I be. lieve—will that infamous day be for which the gen tleman from New York so ardently prays. Mr-Steveniethen Went on, to explain the bill. In the course of his remarks he said those gentlemen of the Democratic party were fennel that some of those Senators would be admitted before wo ousted the first military despot of that region. There is not much danger now, and they‘May afford to let us in. They Meow, I suppose, whether that gentliman is to re main longer in the White House or not. Ido not. But at any rate we can admit no Senators in time to operate on that question. • Mr. Stevens spoke in a tone of voice, and with a clearness and distinctness of emphasis which made him perfectly audible throughout the chamber. When he resumed his seat the House proceeded to vote on the bill and amendments. The first vote was on the amondmentoffered by Mr. Stevens yesterday, in reference to debts due to loyal men. The amendment was agreed to—yeas 78, nays 50. The next question was on' the amendment off. red to-day by Mr. Benjamin and accepted by Mr. Bing ham, as a substitute for his own It was agreed to without the yeas and nays being called. The neat question was on the amendment offered by Mr, Breese, Mama!' citizens of the United States in those States shall be entitled to equal rights of suf frage. It was rejected without the yeas and nays being caller. . - :The bill was then passed—yeas 10S, nays 35. It as follows: A hill to admit the States of North Cru'olina, South Carolina, Louisiana, Georgia, and Alabama to rep resentation in Congress. Wanes, The people of North Carolina, South Carolina, Louisiana, Georgia, and Alabama have in pursuance of .the provisions of an act entitled "An act for the more efficient government of the rebel States," passed March 2, 1887,and the acts supple mentary-thereto, framed constitutions of State gov ernment which are republim.n in form, and have adopted said constitutions by large majorities of the votes cast at the elections held for the ratification or rejection of the same; therefore. Be it enacted, rfc., That the States of North Carolina, South Carolina, Lonienne, Georgia and Al abama shall be entitled and admitted to representa tion is Congress as btates of the Union when th,r Legislatures of said States respectively shall have only ratified the amendment to the Constitution of the United States, passed by the Thirty-ninth Congress, and known as article first, upon the follow lye fundamental conditions; That the constitutions of said States shall never be amended or changed so as to discriminate in favor of or against any citizen or class of citizens of the United Staten in their right to vote, who are now entitled to vote by said constitutions, respectively, except as a punishment for such crimes as are now felonies at mailmen law, whereof they shall have been duly con vlcted,and no person shall over be held to service or la bor RB a punishment for crime in said States except by pa elle offict rs charged with the custody of convicts by the laws thereof, and that so mach of the seventernta section of the fifth article of the Constitution of the State of Georgia as gives authority to legislatures or courts to repudiate debts contracted prior to the first day of .1 une, 1855, and similar provisions in nil other of the constitutions mentioned in this bill shall be null and void as against all men who were loyal &Mpg the time, supported time of the rebellion, and who, during that supported the Union; and they shall have the same rights in the coins and elsewhere at if no rebellion had ever existed. finc. 2 And be it farther enacted, That if the day fixed for the meeting of the Legielatara of either of said btates by the Constitution thereof shall have timed before the passage of this act, such Legislature may be convened within thirty days after the passage of this act by the President of the Convention which formed the Constitution of such State. i EC. 3.

Mr. Burgin, from the Committee on Appropria tions, reported the Indian appropriation bill, which was made the special order for Saturday next. Mr. JENCI:EB, from the Committee on Retrench ment, reported a bill to regulate the civil service of Inc United States, and promote the efficiency thereof, and spoke an hour in advocacy of the bill, which was then postponed till the third of June next. And then, at a quarter past five, the House ad journed till to-morrow. Both branches of City Councils met yesterday after nooll. Select Branch. This Chamber met at the usual hour, William S. Stokley. President. in the chair. - A number of petitions and communications were read, among them the following: A message from his Honor the Mayor submitting a resolution adopted by the Fairmount Park Commis sion. which recommends that Councils purchase from the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Company a piece of ground on the eastern bank of the Schuyl kill, for the use of the Water Department, at a cost of not more than $12.2C0. A communication from J. E. Thompson, President of the Pennsylvania Railroad, stating that that com pany will cheerfully conform with any action that Councils may deem proper with reference to taking up the tracks on Broad street. A communication from Mr. Piersol, City Treasurer, including that the ordinance lately passed by Coun cils, that he shall pay Htate taxes into the City Treas ury, conlitcta with the act of Assembly which defines Medi:dies and holds him amenable to its conditions.

Mr. flodgdon, from therommittee on Highways, reported en ordinance for the better construction of sewers, and authorizing the Chief Commissioner to appoint a chief cleric at a salary of 7;1,2 0 0. After discussion, action was deferred until Thurs day next. The ordinance directing the Mayor to enter into a contract for the cleansing of that portion of the city lying north of Market street, Enid sub-dividing that section into three districts, was discussed at length, and adopted. A resolution autnorizing the Mayor to provide for cleansing these districts in the interim between May 20 and May 27 was also adopted. The application of' the Grand Lodge, A. Y. M., to, lay a turn-out on Broad street at Filbert during the erection of their structure, was granted. Mr. Dunam, Chairman of the Committee to which was referred the ordinance making an appropriation to pay certain claims against the Department of City Property for the years 18(14. liG, 00 and (17, reported that the total of these claims amount to the sum of 55,159 SS, a considerable excess on the amount in tended to be, provided by the ordinance referred to thrill. In some of these cases bills were permitted to rut for years without de:nand, and no effort to pay them, instead of belng settled within the year for which approprittions were rnade. In the coarse of the examination, it was discovered that a very loose and rePrehen•ible practice had prevailed in regard to the supply of coal and ice tor city purposes. B o a t of these articles were delivered in a way not to have the proper checks as to the quantity and quality furnished; • and they were need by all the Row offices with im punity, so that the city has been paying out of its CITY COUNCILS. --- treasury for. warming the • inchtnbente , in winter all cooling them in summer. To what,extent the treasury has been depleted for this purpse it le how impoesible to say, but it is a gross abuse which ought !lotto have been permitted. Besides being subjected to these depletions; it appears. that nearly every eiflic a in the row had its stoves for heating taken down, carried to a dietant mechanica, by him cleaned and stored until it was time to put them up for winter use. Lvi ry wove eo manipulated cost the city four dollare apiece, exclusive of repairs, pipe, lie. single bill for this work amounted to $560 for the space of about six months, only a portion of which is allowed.

Arnone those having some public signifi cance was one from the President of the Pennsyl vania Railroad Company, J. E. Thompson, stating . that his company would conform to any action or Councils in reference to the removal of railway tracks in Broad street; one froth the City Treasurer, Joseph N. Plersol, stating that he had been advised by counsel, that the city ordinance requiring the State taxes to be paid into the shy treasury is in conflict with an ant of Assembly, and asking that he bo reo lieved from the performance of duties in themselves inconsistent.

RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE THE P. E. CONVENTION. AFTIMNOON SESSION Yesterday aftcamoon, according to the rule of ad journment, the. Convention reassembled. The at tendance, both upon the floor and in the galleries of the edifice, was greater than at any other business session—the cause of this wasprobably the announce ment that the debate on the division of the Diocese would take place. - A considerable discussion took place upon the order In which the debate should' be conducted, and the number of times each delegate should be allowed to speak. It was finally decided that the debate should be general. but that the speaker should be restricted to ten minutes. - Rev, Mr. Illomberton; of Lancaster, opened the de bate upon the report of the committee, and in hie re marks supported a division neon what was known us the "live county line." Ile believed that a division upon any other line would not receive the support of the slergy or laity. Rev. Mr. Parree, of Pottsv.llei e.E , id that the extent of territory was not to be considered or bron,ght in as an argument upon this question. For if this was the heels of division, or representation, then in our country, Kangas, Texas. and otherlarge States would have more right to representation than Pennsylvania. The next question must be the number of churches,• and if we examine the distribution of Members and edifices we will find that the' countiesand'iiparlabos outside of the "five•Ccadit , y line,P have not sufficient material for the support :of a bishop. It riley be that there is great apparent strength in that por.ion of the country, lint the condition of the Church may, be ton eidered as a vine' in the spring of the year, Iticoatig out its tendrils and grasping the lattice. The least pressure Upon it drill. deatroy Its, hold. c Bat if we bold on for a short .time, when it has gained strength, and its tendrils have been hardened into wood, that it will stand any blow. This is the Condition of Pennitylvania now. The new, parishes and churches outside of the five-county line are weak, and are unable to yet stand the great pros sue which their.formation into a separate diocese would occasion, lie believed that division was not yet applicable. _ Dr. Claxton said that in the discussion of this lin portant questkin the Conventien Turd be fairly in formed us to the facts and figures f the standing of the Diocese. ;7.loportion of ' th Dioceae lying out side of the fourteen counties 'contained in 1660 nearly one million of people. In the remaining counties of the Diocese there was a little mere than one million of peoide.rAs to pariehes; a'..verYidigertnit state-sof things existed. They have fortv-sla parishes (not counting the three or four named of parishes, that are found only on the COnvention'iournal) in mut portion of the State to be divided by one of the proposed lines ; and in the remaining portion, one hundred and nineteen Darli.hes. In the, . portion outside of the fourteen counties there were only twenty-eight hundred corn muocaota in 180 ~tind In the rest of the Diocese there were eighteen , them and I The •dontriblition from those counties „outside of the fourteen men. Coned for the Epis opal and Convention fonds was $1,000! The question will be very natural. is a pert of the Diocese, which contributed to the Episcopate and Convention less than el,ooll, preparad to assume the augmented responeibilitieeof an indeeeildent (14. ceee? The speaker added; that within the "five-eounty Line," comprising Philadelphia, Berke, Montgomery, Chester and Delaware, there arel7,ooo communicants, and its contribution for the Episcopal and Conn/M(ln tends was 46,643. Be believed that no divieSon was wished for by thoee outlying counties of the proposed line B. They wished no eeparatton yet. , J. Glancy Jones believed that there ehould be a bishop wherever them was work for him to do:' ',And he would vow for a bishop for every fifty-two par ishes. It was stated by one of the delegates,. upon recent authority, that the Diocese of Pittsburgh.was linen cialiy prosperous, and that it would fully do its ahem in supporting the contingent expense 'of a new diocese. Rev. Richard Newton, D. D. said that it was ex tremely difficult to reach a uniformity in facts and figures as to the welfare of the churches of the Dio cese. Be held in his hand at that moment, a letter written him by a reverend brother, on the 7th instant, containing statements in entire contradiction to those mentioned by the delegate who announced the pros perity of the Pittsburgh Diocese. The letter states that the Bishop's salary is not promptly paid. The jowled testifies to a large deficiency, and the forth coming funds are 'mesa= beautifully less from year to year. 'William Welsh, Req., recta a letter from Rev. J F. Spalding, of Erie, to which he stated that ft that por tion of the Diocese had i Bishop it:would double in its effective strength, and increase in numbers more than four-fold. Rev. Mr. Parris, of this city, thought that what the committee reported that of the forty•elitlit coati ties ontaide of the "five-county line," twenty six re ported adversely, to division, the Convention would not debate the Iquestlon of division. We of Philadelphia have , an interest in this weVement, and cannot in the love for the Diocese of Pennsylvania, for the condition of the Church here; for all that is best for the interests of the whole Church of Christ, or the tulvancement of the truth; for the freesreaching of the Gospel and devei opulent of the truest energies of the pastoral relation, wish yet, or for some time to come, any other divi sion, until the people shall, in large numbers, ask for ft. Rev. John A. Barris desired to make a reply to the remarks of the speaker WOO preceded 'him; He thought that the gentle Man (Rev, Mr. Partin) would find, upon a closer investigation, that there vas riot a vast majority of clergymen and churches in the in toriorof l'ennsylvanet opposed to division. The speaker oelleved that if 'the reportof the Committee on Division should be More closely looked into, that the answer of the twenty-sixparlithes which opposed division would invariably bo found to be answers in opposition to the "fourteen-County line." The questions addressed to the Clergy end vestriee in the lutefier were only upon the "fourteen-county line." Rev. Dr. Goodwin said that there was opposition to the three proposed lines--the five, seven, and fourteen county lines, and all seem to , desire to get rid of Philadelphia. Be would like to ask Blehop Vail, of Kansas, whether he would feel the cause of Christ and the Church utterly jeopardized, iu his Diet ceee, if the City of Philadelphia should be transported to it, with all its wealth and churches? Beni there was a manifest desire to get away !rem Philadelphia, the very heart of the Church of this Diocese Rev. Mr. Jerome was in favor of divisioa, for he believed that it the light of a Bishop's face, and his influence, could be seen and felt more by the churches in the interior portion of the State than they are now, the strength and power of the Church would be' vastly ineressed. • ' . lice. Mr. Williamson, of Wilkesbnrre, believed that now was not a judicious time for division. Be thought three or six years should yet elapse before the move ment should he att. mpted. Rev. Mr. Wordley, of Wiillarrisport, , was in favor of division by the "five-county line. Tnere kie in his locality a vast amount of Episcopal work to do, but there is none to perform it. Ile ban found out that the strongest men in favor of division were lay men. He held in his band a note from a prominent gentleman who said it he could have a dividon on this "fleet-county line" he would give ss,',t)o towards the new diocese. The lien. M. Russell Thayer thenffered a fasub stitute for the re m solutions and em enis thereof, for a division of the Diocese, to wi : That a new diocese be formed of all the con ties embraced within the Diocese of Pennsylvania, except the coun ties of Philadelphia, Bucks, Delaware, Chester and ,iontgomcry. This was tabled. Rev. Mr. Parvin offered the following substitute for all action thus far, as follows: That it is inexpedient for this Convention to give consent to the division of the Diocese upon any line at this time. The yeas and nays upon the adoption of this sub stitute were then called. The result was a slight majority of the clergy for the substitute, and an equally slight majority of the laity against it. Flo the subject goes over for final decision until this morning's session. The Conven tion then adjourned. The M. E. General Conference on Irn. pettchmeitit. CHICAGO, May 14.—The General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, composed of nine bishops and two hundred and forty-two delegates, representing a Church of more than eleven hundred thousanthnembers in the United States has just unanimously adopted the follow ing preamble and resolution: Whereas, There is now pending in the Senate of the United States the most important question which has ever engaged Its attention:and whereas, the evidence and pleadings in this case have beer. fully spread before the people so that all may form an enlightened opinion; and whereas, we are deeply impressed that upon its rightful decision will largely depend the safety and prosperity of our nation, as well as the religious privileges of our ministers and members in many parts of the Sonth;land whereas, painful rumors are in circu lation that, partly by unworthy jealousies and partly by corrupt influences, pecuniary and otherwise, most actively employed, efforts are being made to influence Senators improperly; and to prevent them from performing their high duty; therefore, Resolved, That we hereby appoint an hour of prayer, from nine to ten o'clock A. 31. to-mor row, to invoke, humbly and earnestly, the mercy of God upon our nation, and beseech Him to save our Senators from error, and so influence them that their decision shall be in truth and righte 013SLICES, and shall increase the security and pros perity of our beloved (7nion.
