Mach taut was re (lritred t "him' 0 , Ce04 4 . The mere bnainnee of jotting down plain facts in the Dishiest kind of language re. (wired no talent Whatever. but to trite out a real sensa tional HAM, based non that whiCh seemed to be true, could not be intrnsted to everyone not possessed of original genius. There was at one time, in the earlier day; of local reporting, n' perfect dearth of news, and the reporters_ _were in reality driven to their witst ends in order to appease the demands of the newspaper proprietors and the public, A happy expedient was bit upOn, which 'resulted in exciting the eommunity , for almost nine days. A vest with slit cut in that part of it VI hich would cover the region of the he'art of the wearer, was 'found early in tho morning, on the sidewalk, near South street and Pessymik road, the bieondary line between the "city proper' , and the District of Southwark. There une a email quantity of blood upou It. Drops of the same material were traced to the month of nu inlet of the- culvert not far 'distant. rind upon a closer examination, tho bent iron bar which extended across the month thereof was' lso bloody, and 'several strands of bunion hair were discovered sticking to it by tho adhesive power of the sanguine' fluid, which had by this tithe become hard and dry'. The developments caused any amount of excitement, and crowds upon crowds of people, of,, a% ages, sexes colors and conditions, assenibled in the vicinity, and many the'oriea were advanced, lint, though very differ ent, all concluded that a horrible murder had been committed. One old colored woman, while sitting 'up with a sick child, at about one o'clock in the morning, heard the cry of murder—not an unusual thing in that vicinity at that tithe. But ono of the Southwark night Watch was at Fifth and South streets when the clock struck one on the morning in question, and was wide .awake, as he averred, but did not bear the appalling cry , • The news of the " horrible and atro cious murder'un ."deeply-mystorious assassination," spread with rapidity, and thousands.of persons congro gated there. The Mayor of the city end a number of hi policemen arrived iu due time ; the vest was examined but there was no mark or anything else about it calcu lated to lead to identification. The detecti* force took the matter in hand, but could not gain a single polo wherewith to solve the mystery. The vest was made o Valencia, not in fashion at the time, and was intended for. a man much above the, medium size; so large, indeed, that it must have been a difficult job to thrust such a sized person. into the aperture of the inlet. While all sorts of speculation was rife, the Mayor ordered the sewer to be searched, and two or three men were employed for this purpose. The subterranean passage-way was entered end thoroughly examined, but no corpse was found. It Vista thought, however, that perhaps the murdered body had been swept' away by the current or flow in the sewer, the water being nearly two feet deep, and the search was continued during the day and 'part of the next day, lamps being used to apsist the men under ground. Finally .all hope of finding the body was abandoned, and in the Course of time the subject WAS forgotten, the people. as well as the Mayor, • Coroner and Policemen, concluding that the whole thing vas nothing more nor lees than a hoax. A pretty shrewd officer, who bad some experience in the detective line, subsequently intimated, to several reporters, that he be lieved' one of, them had " put up the job" simply to gratify a desire to convulse the community, end to make the newspapers sell to more than an ordinary extent. At all events, tbe affair caused as great a sensation as did the story of the " gum man" and hie"sticking plaster," of a more recent date.

RELIGIOUS INTELLIGEINGE. ' GENERAL REFORMED CHURCH OF THE UNI TED STATEs.—Tho devotional exorcises of the Synod were opened this'kern ing by Bev. Dr. Stern, who announced a hymn, which was *mg in German by the audience. Prayer was also offered in German. ,The roll was called by the Secretary, when a quorum of members answered to their names. The subetitute offered by Rev. Dr. Williard to the report of the Committee on Ritual was again considered. It was ae follows : Iltiolved, That: the Liturgy of the Reformed Church submitted to them by the Synods of Ohio and the North la est; together with the order of worship of (he Eastern Synod, be submitted to the several classes for their ap proval or disapproval according to the Cons tituticn , and that 'in the meanwhile the optional use of both be allowed in the Church. Neither of these Liturgies shalt, however, in any case he introduced in the regular order of service without the formal consent of the consistory end congregation. Her. Dr. 'Bomberger gave a few leading reasons in favor of the amendment. Ile was sorry that there should have entered into the debate the personal feelings of some of the members. He was sorry that there should be any antagonistic movement among the members at the present time. This evil originated as far back as fifteen years ago, and has been working or exerting its•lnfiti ence since that time. Me was in favor of the amendment of Dr. Williard for this reason. Eor twelve years this evil has been tolerated in the face of the Constitu tion. Shall tkis war neverend to . Shall the battle never cease? Had there been some error sprung upon us by seine strange teacher. such as the advocates of Arian ism or Unitarianism teach, the speaker believed that there was not a brother on the side opposite to his own but who would have repelled the error: Error has been mixed with the Liturgical' movement, and it is but right that the evil should be repelled. It had been charged that names had been placed on memorials advo cating the duty of opposing the new order of things, but the speaker contended that these were circulars issued by the friends of the Liturgical movement within a short distance of some of the churches friendly to the movement. who had circulated documents of this kind, ana therefore the charges thus made ho would repel. Bev. Dr. Nevin said inch disposition of the subject would be highly discourteous to all three district Synods. Much.has been said about the sacred right of petition ; stress bas been laid, and rightly too, on even the seventy memorials which have been sent up from a frag mentary part of the Church ( although many of the names have been surreptitiously obtained). Now then, j ) ran we refuse the petition of the th ee district Synods ? They all ask that the Vetitern Lit tray be put on the came basis as the Order of Worshi . flow 'dare we ig nore thisitetition? The report of the Committee grants the request of these three Synod.. This Synod is bound,before sending an ordinance down to the classes for approval or rejection, itself to pass upon said ordinances, and not leave it to the classes for criticism. No ordinance can originate with the classes. Ve propose to send the liturgies down to . the people to test their adaptation to our wants. It is easy enough to see that sending them to the classes for adoption or re jection would produce an endless agitation and the failure of both liturgies. Rev. Dr. Apple opposed the amendment offered by Dr. Williard, and contended that before they could send the liturgies down to the classes the Synod must firstadept them. Handing these liturgies down to the classes would not help the matter. Handing them down . to these bodies would be to defeat both of them. It will be dan gerous fur the Synod to let these documents out of their hands, and thus have no control over them. The evi dent design of the amendment is not to encourage and foster the Liturgical movement in the Church but to choke off the movement. . WY. Mr. Reinhart followed in a few remarks, con tending that the subject was one which claimed the at tention of the whole Church. Rev. Mr. Esbanch said that it was a fact that a large Portion of the congregation here worshipping had been aggrieved by the eetehlishment of a particular form of Liturgy, and contended that therefore the results had been for evil. Dr. Giesy, pastor of the congregation, said ho could speak more definitely on the subject under dispute than perhaps could be done by any other member on the floor, aid said that the order of worship had never canned difficulties is his congregation. The pastor made no ef fort to introduce the order of worship into the Church. He utterly denied any such attempt on hie,part. Bev. Dr. Milleriinestioned the proprietPlia prolonging the debate, and desired that the Synod come to a vote immediately. Be would be in favor of iaying the amend ment ea the table, and that a committee of confet once should be appointed. He would also be in favor of the Synod dissolving, that the members might meet and agree upon some union by which the parties could agree: The vote on the amendment was then moved, when a division of the question was called for. The vote on the first resolution was then taken—the special consent of the house to that effect having been given. It was lost by a vote of to to lel. vote was then taken on the next resolution, resulting in the defeat of the mane by a vote of 105 to if. The vote then recurred on the original revolutions (al ready published). [For the Philadelphia Evening Bulletinl The Weather for November.
