RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE. Series op Sermons for the People.—A great course of pulpit. discourses is about to be com* menced by the Rev. Thomas H. D. D., late chaplain to the United States House of Repre sentatives, and now paatorof the Ohurch of the New Testament, which worships in the chapel at Ele venth and Wood streeta. Several of the sermons to lie included in this series were delivered some years sgo in Cincinnati, Baltimore, and -Philadelphia, and some of them were afterwards printed for circu lation, The Doctor now proposes to complete the course then commenced, in the light of, and, in a measure, with reference to, events at present trans piring in the theological and political world. The opening dii course in the series will be given to morrow (Sunday) evening, and will have for its theme, ‘‘Theßible and other Current Authorities, Natural and Social, being a Review of the Charac ter of Creation and Providence, the Church, and •the State.” .The course will consist of ten sermons, the whole to be issued in boolc form, immediately sifter their delivery. All who attend these sermons will enjoy a rich treat, and those who hear, will, we doubt noti be doubly anxious to possess and pre serve them for future reference. -- The Independent on .the Late Rebel Gen. jAbksoN.--The current number of The Independent , in a leader upon Thomas; Jefferson Jackson, the cmisentrebel general,.who died a few days ago from wounds received in the confnsion of the battle of Chancellorville, ftt ithe hands of his own men, says : 41 Henceforth we know him no more after the flesh. He is no longer a foe. We think of him now as a noble-minded gentleman, a rare and eminent Christian ! For years he has been an active mem ber of the Preebyterian Ohurch, of which he was a luling elder. He never, in all the occupations of the camp, or temptation of campaigns, lost thefervor of his piety, or remitted his Christian dutics. ' “We know tliat before every important move he spent much time in prayer. •, He had so pub hisaoul in the keeping ©f his master that he was relieved from all thought of self, and.had the whole power of hiß life ready for his work. Officers of Fremont’s army, who pursued him in his famous retreat from the Shenandoah valley, found him to be greatly be loved, by the common people, among whom, iu for mer times, he had labored, in prayer meetings, in ..temperance meetings, and in eyery Christian word and work.' No wonder he fought well along a re gion whose topography he had mapped down with prayers, exhortations, and Christian labor. * * % “ Let no man suppose thatthe North will triumph over a fallen son with insulting gratulations ! . No where'else will the name of Jackson be more honored. Not for adhesion to the cause of slavery, hut for his untarnished personal character, for his devout piety, and for his military genius.” A Recreant Oh aflatn.— A correspondent of the Boston .Recorder writes that a chaplain of a Massa chusetts regiment, in the Army of the Potomac, not long since introduced his sermon on Sunday morn ing in these words: “I shall take my text on this occasion from a well-known author, or at least from one who should be well known, and in these words: •Let us be jolly.’ You will find this in the Gospel according to Dickens.” Then folio wed in keeping with such a text and introduction, to the manifest disgust of even the most irreligious iu the regiment. This jolly chaplain, it is said, has, Bince then, lost his situation in the regiment above refer red to, but, Btrange to say, has been appointed to officiate in that capacity in one of the German hos pitals in Washington.. Bishop Simpson’s Removal to Philadelphia. —The Chicago Advocate, in speaking of the contem plated removal of Bishop Simpson, one of the most eminent divines in the Methodist Episcopal Church, to this city, says: “We regret to learn that Bishop Simpson has decided upon a removal to Philadel phia. The Northwest can ill afford to spare him, and will regrethis removal. He is needed here, and surely episcopal supervision is needed here, and through the Northwest. We must submit, but it is not with patient resignation. We suppose several weeks will elapse before the removal, as the Bishop 3s still East aetemling his conferences.” A French Pilgrimage to the Holy City.—A caravan of French Roman Catholic pilgrims to the Holy City recently arrived in Jerusalem. They enter ed with great solemnity, at.the first sight of .the city Alighting and kissing the ground, and immediately proceeding to the alleged tomb of Christ to, offer prayer. The cupola covering the sepulchre, it is said, presents a melancholy spectacle, being in a very. dilapidated state. A plan forits reconstruction has been presented by French and architects, but it has not- yet.been "approved by the French, Russian, and Turkish Governments, although fre3h diplomatic conferences have been opened at Con stantinople to arrange the'matter. Every incident. »nd occurrence relating to Jerusalem now excites a peculiar interest in the religious world. African College.— The African Methodist Church hftßTnow an opportunity of purchasing the Wilberforcc University- at Tawawa Springs, near Nenia, Giiio; aud its members ; are making strenuous ©ffbrtß to secure it for the benefit of their race. • Bishop Ames sailed for Germany on the 9th instir He hasbeenappointed to preside at the German-: Mission Conference, and before his return .will visit the Scandinavian missions of the Methodist Episco pal Church. Rev. L. L. Briggs, having received and accepted & call fromjthe Church of the Messiah, at Locust and Juniper streets, preached his first discourse as the pastor of the society on last Sunday morning. He is. a graduate of the Clniton Theological School, New York. More Criticism on Bishop Oolbnso’s Book.—■ It is now alleged that the second part of Bishop ColensO'S attack on the Pentateuoh wAsnofc really ■written by the Bishop himself, from the internal evidence that, while the first part of the work be- Irayß, in almost every page, the Bishop’s ignorance of Hebrew, the Becond reßts almost exclusively on his claim to an intimate and scholarly acquaintance with that language. V „ Religious -Scandal about the Prince of ■Wales’ MARniAGE.—The London Church Review declares the marriage ceremony of the Prince of Wales to be “ a great public scandal,” and church men Are reminded that it took place on the 12th of March, which iB the feast of St. Gregory the Great, and that “there is some doubt whether a royal marriage, celebrated in Lent, might not hereafter be impeached in the ecclesiastical court.” / Rev. Mr. Ciianning on General Hooker and His Army.—The Rev. Mr. Ohanning, ot Washing ton, who had just .returned from the army, where lie witnessed Sedgwick’s fight on Monday, and has since talked freely with the men, both in camp and in the hospitals, declared in his sermon, last Sunday, lhat the morale of the soldiers, and their faith in Joe Hooker, were unimpaired, and that they await a re newal of the conflict with steady and cheerful confi dence, their minds being entrenched in a habit of pa tient hope, and their belief in ultimate triumph liaving been strengthened with every battle, while the rebels fought in anger and enmity. The National Convention of the Young Men’s Christian Association in the United States is to be held tins year at Chicago, commencing on the 4th ©f June.

Yesterday morning one hundred and twelve rebel prisoners, who . recently arrived in this city, took the oath of allegiance. The oath was adminis tered by Captain Haldeman to the men in squads of four each, at Eleventh and Girard streets. Only four out oi the whole number refused to take the oath; and were immediately started on their way to Fort Delaware. The ceremony caused quite an excitement. The rebels presented a shabby appear ance, although they all seemed to be in the enjoy ment of good health. Slight Fihe.—A slight fire occurred yesterday afternoon at Marahet’s confectionery, c6i\cer of Allen street and. Frankford road, Eigh teenth ward. The fire originated from the stove. At Kneedler’s roofing establishment, on German town road, below Diamond street, Nineteenth ward, a fire also occurred, but it did very slight damage. The fire at the residence of Dr. Lee, No. 1323 Spring Garden street, was occasioned by the lighting of a window curtain, in the third story, by children* playing with matches. . \ The Cape May and Mtllville, Eail ,new railroad will run cars regularly to Port Elizabeth on and after Wednesdav, the 20th instant, leaving Walnut-street wharf at*9 o’clock warning, O.

Flag Raising—The presentation of a fla tterl X beco,nea member of the Baptist Church, stood before the magistrate, and refused to re move ins hat when requested. To all outward appear aucehe might be supposed as being a member of the So ciety ol b fiends. . It may he necessary to say this much to prevent an unjust imputation being charged agaiost any of that respectable class of the people of Philadelphia commonly called Quakers. A number of the most prominent gentlemen connected With the prayer-meetings were examined as to the facts of the case. It seems the defendants have been in the habit of visiting the prayer-meetings, as the card at the front doorajxtends a general invitation to the public to call in.. They have expressed their feelings in such a style as to hurt the feelings of the: devout worshipping Christians. Mr. Sfcukey, particularly, has made such objectionable remarks, and claimed to do so under, the invitation, th at members of the congregation left the meeting. Both of the'defendants have been ejected: by the police officers, but still they would return. The re marks made by the defendants .were in condemnation of the ministry ; of the peculiar rights of religious sects; that this one or thatone was a wolf in sheep’s clothing; that, in fact,the parties engaged in the meetings had no right to hold them. On one occasion, when one hun dred and fifty persons were present, the question was ask ed whether any one desired to hear liim to speak? to which there was not an affirmative response, but he still in sisted on being present to enunciate his. views so ob noxious to the general feeling. On one occasion, because of his remarks, twenty-six persons in a body left the meeting. Mr. Stnkey endeavored to cross-examine the witness, and essayed to argue the various points thatarose. He was checked by the magistrate, who desired him to coniine himßßlf strictly to the rules of law. In doing so, he made tlie case worse against himself than even the evidence in chief. . ~ • , Mr. Wilson begged off; he said that lie would not go to the meetings any more if the prosecution should be withdrawn. This being assented to by the gentleman who had instituted the proceedings, he was discharged on his owurecogniance. l . Mr. Stukey would not make any such saerm ie of his feelings, and was therefore required to eater bail in the sum of $6OO, to answer at court. |He simply replied, “ hi never henter bail: ” A commitment was made out, aud he was taken down stairs. : When we left the station, he was in a Jail* way of being indulged in a free ride iu the van, to the county prison. The penalty for disturbing a prayer meeting, as , pro vided lorby the 31st section of the revised penal code, is a fine of ssb, and three mouths’imprisonment. lOmeter. Moses Sweetzer, quite a small lad, was arraigned at the Central Station, last evening, on the charge of steal in g five dollar's and twenty-five cents from his employer, a Mr. Harczyk, a pawnbroker, 1200 North Second street. The youch had beeneraployed about a week at the store, during wlnch time the money was taken, and also five “pledges” disappeared from the shelves. The lad, •though not over twelve years of ago, hired a wagon with some of the stolon money and went out a riding. He was arrested by Detective Lamon, to whom he admitted taking the money, but denied stealing the articles thlt were pledged. < ille was .committed to answer. A-young man giving the name of Thomas Connell was arraigned last evening on the charge of committing an assault and battery on-Mr. Frenau of the Police Tele graph. The defendant was drunk, hurrahed for Jeff. Davis, and made an unprovoked attack on an old color ed man on Sixth street. When taken into custody lie resisted the electrician, and committed an assault and battery upon him. The defendeut was required to pay a fine for being drunk; and to enter bail in . the sum of &GCO to answer the charge of assault and: battery upon Mr. Frenau. •. •. , A young : man, recently married, was arraigned last evening, at the Central Station, on the charge of steal ing a gold watch and chain, valued at $45. the property of Airs. Sally Dawes, residing at 330 south Twenty-firist street. It seems that some workmen were on the roof of a house, and he went up there, as lie says, in search of work. Tlio watch was stolen from a room. It was: re covered by Detective\Carlin, at a pawnshop in the southwestern section of the city. The ‘ pawnbroker could not identify the prisoner; lie said he looked like the young man who had pawned the watch, but: he was not certain. The. defendant was committed to await another hearing. . . A woman giving the name of Ann Bush was committed yesterday afternoon to answer the charge of stealing $2.50 from Mary Hughes. The loser lives in Gilles’ alley. She was asleep at her residence, with the money in her boeom. Dnring her somnolent condition, it is . alleged the defendant removed the money. Two witnesses tes tified that they saw her with the pocket-book containing the change. . • \ - - • Loolc Out for Swindlers* •A pretty-well-dressed woman stopped at the residence of Anna Ruhl, a German woman, No. 9 Bowery place, near Tenth and Willow streets, some time since. aud swindled her out of $35. by practising an “old dodge.” The stranger said that she and her husband had been living at Richmond, Va. Her trunks, after a deal of trouble, had been brought to'Philadelphia, and they remained at the express office, because she had not the sum of $35 to pay the expenses of bringing them. She so operated upon, the sympathetic German woman a 3 to induce her to advance the required sum; tendering, as collateral security, a gold watch and chain,' with charms attached, one of them being across, the emblem of Christianity. ! . The stranger had a smooth tongue. She said she had plenty of money in her trunks, and afeer she obiained a house to live in she would call and not only redeem the watch, but make' a present to her kind benefactress. Since that transaction she has not been heard of. Mrs. Rnhl entered a complaint yesterday at the Central Sta tion. The watch is known as a “ stuffer,” not worth over a dollar. Mrs. Purfell alias Emma Smith, an account of whose anest was published yesterday.' accompanied Detective Dusenbery, of New York, to that city yesterday after noon,-the “ splendid mantilla,” ” love of a bonnet,” and all- She appeared to be rather melancholy as she retired from the office. A day or two since a gentleman stepped into a whole sale liquor store, and engaged" the attention of the pro prietor, tasting his wines and liquors,'and talking large ly. While so engaged, a, well-dressed.;maxrcame, in, seemingly in a hurry, and,-handing a bank note to the proprietor of the store, asked him whether he thought it a counterfeit. He went to the counting room in the .rear part of the store to examine the detector. The in quirer followed of course. At this moment the man who had called purchase of wine and liquor started towards the door, as if he intended to ‘go away. The proprietor did-not want to lose a customer, so he' banded the detector to the man in the counting-room to make an examination, and . then, started to the front of the store. Both men finally.retired. In half an hour after this scene a little hoy came'to the store with a pack age in Ms hand, which he sat'd a man at the corner told him to bring. It was receiyed, '‘ and, upon being opened, judge of the.surprise of tße storekeeper to find it made up of papers of no use to anybody but aimself. The papers had ueen taken out of the open fire-proof safe by the counterfeit-note man. Both the -men were strangers' to -the otoi'oii*oivir..but:aoio „ THOS. S. FERNON. > Committee op thb Month.

FROM REV. jpHN NOTT, T>. D., PROCESSOR IN UNION COLLEGE, SCHENECTADY, N. Y, • Schenectady, January 17,1862. Dr. Lighthill— Sir: Having been cured by you of a discharge in an ear, which has been very of fensive of late, and as far back as I can remember always more or less so; and having been much im proved in hearing since under your care, I feel that I cannot withhold this from any use it may be to others, especially asifiave applied in vain to my family physician and other physicians of reputation. Yours truly, JOHN NOTT. [TT.OM REV. P. R. RUSSELL, LYNN, MASS.] Ihave.been much troubled with catarrh of the worst type for some twenty years. It gradually grew worse, producing cough and hoarseness, de stroying the sense of smell, and breaking down my general health to Buch a degree as to compel me.to resign my pastorate and suspend public speaking. I made diligent use of the usual remedies, such as snuffs of various kinds, nitrate of silver, tar-water, olive-tar, and inhalations, Ijut without any very salutary effects. Last summer I heard-of Dr, Lighthill’s successful mode of treating catarrh, visited him, and put myself under his treatment. I began Immediately to improve, and this improve .ment has gone on to the present time. My catarrh has gradually melted away, my cough has disap peared, my voice haß become natural, and I am once more able to preach the Messed Gospel. Let me advise all troubled with catarrhal difficulties to ap ply to Dr. Lighthill. P. R. RUSSELL. Lynn, Mass., Feb.l, 1862.
