    BXUeiOFS IN'TKLLIGESCK,
' THH PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH IH THB SOUTH.—
Before the war all the Christian denominations had
their branohea extending over the whole country,
and each member wrought is ‘harmony. But po
litical resulted In religious secession. Division of
sentiment on the subject of slavery occurred In every
denomination, with tbe exception of those who had
always condemned it, and disciples of peace became
opposing warriors or abetters of war. Among the
divisions was that of the Old sohool Presbyterian
Churoh. The Southern portion of the Now School
Churoh had already withdrawn from their brethren
at the North, and sot np an establishment for them
selves, before the war. The seceders from the Old
•School formed themselves Into a new body, and af
terwards united with the New School, nnflor tM
title of the Presbyterian Church of the Confederate
States. The church supported the rebellion with a
good deal of spirt t,and although there may have been
no Bishop Polks in the communion, yet there wore
Others who ranted higher as soldiers than as mem
bers of tbe denomination. The effect of the war on
this rebellious branch of the Preßhytertan Church
may be judged by the facts presented at thelast Gen
eral Assembly, held In may, 1864. There were only
tnlrty-eeven ministers present; the Theologloal
Seminary had but seven students against slxty-two
before tbe rebellion, and tbe endowment fund had
tone almost entirely for the benefit of tho rebellion.
107 633 went from the Seminary fund; $20,000 from
' the publication fund; $21,000 from the domestic
missionary fund ; $33,367 from the foreign missiona
ry food—ln all $131,880 In this unsafe and unprofita
ble risk. It Is to be hoped that this lesson will teash
theill doers a better understanding of the ways of
Providence.
A Finis Sermon.—The Bermon of Kev. D. L.
Gear, pastor of the First Congregational Chapel,
on Sunday evening, April 23, has been Issued In
pamphlet, In oompllanoe with the wish of some
of his parishioners, who appreciated Its exhaustive
ability and genuine feeling.
A New Church Building.— The Oongregation
allst congregation, now worshipping at Concert
Hal), have purchased a fine loton Eighteenth street,
between Green and Mount Vernon, upon whloh they
Intend to ereci a church edifice. The building will
Coyer the entire lot from Green to Mount Vernon.
Ground Has already been broken, 3D Cl the WUnfllF
tlon will be laid In a few days, .
THB Nbw Motbstbut bob Christian Union.—
V7e understand that It Is the deßlgn of T. H. Stock
ton, pastor of the Church of the New Testament, at
Eleventh and 'Wood streets, to pay some special
attention to this new movement, In his sermon on
Bible Creeds, on Sabbath afternoon, at 3% o’olook.
Christians of all denominations Interested In this
Important subject are oordlally Invited to be pro.
Sent. Tbe meetings at the Presbyterian and Bap
tist churches, last Monday and Tuesday nights,
were demonstrative of an earnest desire, at least,
for the promotion of this eause.
The Whereabouts on the Sbpulchbb or
Christ,— Tbe Interest which the Empress Eugenie
has manifested In the restoration of the sepulchre
of the Saviour has awakened In many classes a fresh
concern on the snbjeot. In Euchred Mr. Ferguson
has lately been delivering, before the Royal Insti
tution, a lecture in which he endeavors to show
that the building in the sacred enclosure, at Jeru
salem, called by Europeans the Mosque of Omar,
Is tbe Church of the Resurrection built by Con
stantine over the rock which he believed to
eontaln the sepulchre of Christ. This Mosque of
Omar is styled by the Mussulmans the Dome of the
Bock, and is affirmed by some to have been erected
by Omar over tbe site of the altar of the. Jewish
Temple. Mr. Ferguson, who is both logical and
lucid, argues first from architectural grounds, and
enforces his reasonings .by a description of tho di
mensions of the successive temples of tho Jews. He
affirms that the rock In the centre of the Mosque is
outside the|temple area. Bui If this be true, .the
structure could not have been built by the Mos
lems. The only reason people assign for at
tributing the building or it to them, Is that on
that rook stood the Holy of Holies, or altar of the
Jews. If it was not erected by the Moslems, how
ever, It must have been by the Christians; and If
by Die Christians, then by Constantine, and must
be the church reared over what be believed was the
eave containing the body of Christ. The architec
ture of the building is of the age of Constantine.
Neither he nor any other Christian ever bnllt, in
Jerusalem or anywhere else, a church floored with
aroekeontaiolng aoave, but the one whloh Euse
bius describes as having been built by Constantine.
The letter of the Empress has had the effect of revi
vifying archaeological researches, and of ascertain
ing the precise locality of tho Saviour’S sepulchre
before attempts are made to restore it.
Items in Miniature Some one has prepared
a table of comparative statistics, showing the pre
sent conditions and relations of the two bodies _
known as New and Old School Presbyterians in
this country: The Old School body has 2,266 minis
ters, 2.626 ohurches, 231,660 members, and contri
buted during the year 1864 $376,657 for benevolent
purposes. The New School has 1,644 ministers,
1,442 chnrohes, and 138,074 members.
The General Assembly of the Old School Presby
terian Church will held its next meeting In the
First Church el Pittsburg, Pa., on Thursday, the
18th day of May.
Bishop James (M. E.) left New York this week
In the steam er Canada lbr Europe, where he Is to
remain about a year.
Thera are nineteen missionary societies now at
work by their agents in the empire of China, and of
these ten are American.
There Is going on in Tnrkey a reactionary move
ment on the part of the Government to prevent

time of hi death. He eulogized Mr. Thompson, and
urged his obaraeter as an example of Christian

THE POLICE.
[Before Mr. Alderman Battler.]
BAREFACED ATTEMPT TO SWINDLE A WIDOW
OUT OF A HOUSE.
STARTLING . DEVELOPMENTS—ANOTHER. WOK AN
GROSSLY SWINDLED—OUTRAGEOUS FOEGURIBB
AND FORTUNE-TELLING ATEOCITIBS,
There were published In the poltoe column of The
Press yesterday the particulars of a preliminary
hearing on a charge of conspiracy, formed by George
Shields and Catharine Relchenbaeh, to cheat Eliza
beth Walker out of her house, situate at the corner
of Tenth and Carpenter streets. These particulars
were true ss far as developed, and need no repe
tition. The case came up for a final hearing at the
Central Station, yesterday afternoon, when the
lollowing astounding developments were made:
Mr. Richard Ludlow appeared as counsel for Mrs.
Relchenbaeh, who he said was a grossly injured
woman, as the proceedings would show: but that
Shields jpas the guilty party, and should be made
to atone to the ottended law.
T. Wood McKinley, sergeant of the Reserve Corn*
Of Police, Was called- tw UlO buss. - Upon being
mrvru earn: shields la in my oustody this morning;
he and myself had some talk about this matter; I
found on him a considerable number of papers pur
porting to be telegraphic despatches; also, a docu
ment containing two or three big seals, purporting
to be an agreement of settling a theft between cer
tain parties therein named ; tblß document purports
to have been signed by bis Honor Mayor Henry, and
also by David Bottler, alderman; in a conversation
with the prisoner he said that he knew a woman who
had met with a loss; that a man named Green, a
Sedlar of books, with whom he (the prisoner) had
Bcome slightly acquainted, was made aware of the
faot; he said to Shields, who was flat broke, that If
this thing (that is, the robbery) was followed up that
something could be made out of It.
The witness here produced the agreement and
certain despatches. .The latter purport to have
bees sent from New York bv Mr. Neffer, a detective
of Jersey city. An extract from a few of them will
suffice to impart tbe character of them all;
Ist despatch. “ I have arrested the man; will you
eome os, or shall I fetch him.”
2d. "I have arrested the woman, and will oome
on with her!; meet me at the Kensington depot; I
cannot eome until I get the requisition papers.”
3d. "No requisition has beenreoelved from the
Governor; all right; tell the lady she’ll get her
money.” ✓
4 th. “All right; the requisition paper has come;
be at the house to-morrow ; meet me, If you choose;
everything right.”
Sth. “ Will start at 4 o’elock; be at Kensington
depot with cab, and take the parties to the lockup.”
6tb. “ George Shields, I cannot oome, and cannot
tell when I can. You go on and settle the matter
for $2 600, not less.”
7th.' “ April loth. Start at S o’elock, Instead of 7
o’clock. Be at the depot at 2 o’olook. I’ll see you
and her together at the Toombs.”
The bogus despatches were signed “ John Neffer,
Detective 18 th, Jersey Olty.”
At this stage of the proceedings Mr. Ludlow read
a letter directed to Mrs. Reldenbach, 1028 Ridge
avenue, suggesting a settlement of the affair, upon
restoration or the mosey, &o.
It may be propor to si ate to this place, SO that the
leader may obtain a clear comprehension of the
mean fraud, that these despatches were shown to
Mrs. Reldenbach, and she delegated George Shields
to have the necessary papers drawn up, as she
wanted'her money back. She advanced him $44 to
pay the' expenses, fee lawyer, &c., but at the same
time he demanded $5O, one half of whloh was for
the Mayor, and the other half for Alderman Beltler,
for his fee.
THB AGREEMENT. t
The following is the agreement, with which the
optics of Mrs Reldenbaeh were essentially closed.

no; he said he knew a lady in New York who
looked very muck like me: 1 asked him If he knew
anybody there, and he said yes, and that he was
about to go there; then I told him all about my
trouble, and-sald she guessed the man and woman
had gene there with her money, and other things;
he said he would get the money back for me ; he
said he knew a good deteotlveln Jersey; he went
away, and came back from New York, and said he
had seen the lady who had swindled me; that she
kept a lager beer place at Union HIU; he said the
defective had seen her, and asked when her hus
band was; she replied that he had travelled two
days; he (Shields) said that he and the detective
had watehed the place two days and nights to eateh
him, but not coming, the detective was lelt there,
aril Shields came to the city ; Shields showed me
the telegraphic despatches he received from the de
tective, ana after that, showed me the ogre ament;
he said it cost $6O; twenty-five for the 'Mayor, and
twenty-five for the alderman; he said he spent more
than that, but that he had settled the oase, and eoutd
get $3,000 from the parties; that he intended to get
a check from the lawyer; at this time, and before I
got the oheck, I sold my place out for $3OO, and made
arrangements to buy the other place at Tenth and
Carpenter streets: I wanted to go and see tho law
yer, but Shields told me that I need not bother my
self about It, that he had a oheok for $l,OOO which I
could have to pay for the other house; I took the
oheok, and when I purchased the place gave $100;
alter this I gave the cheek for $l,OOO, with the un
derstanding that the lady was to give me back the
$lOO, when she got It cashed at the bank; this man
Shields continued to board at my house, but he never
paid me anything; I gave him $l4 to pay the law
yer, and for other little expense; he said he had
betn at.
Ihe evidence here closed. Shields was asked if
he had anything to say. He replied, I am guilty/
but I did not write tbe papers; a man named Green
wrote them ;-he has gone to New York; don’t know
exactly where; he went away three or four days
ago.
Some of the spectators expressed their indigna
tion at the barefacedness of the self-condemned cul
prit.
Mr. Ludlow, to concluding-the oase, said that he
was glad that the truth hail been so elicited as to
shield the truly Innocent, his client, an honest,
heart- broken woman, who had been so grossly swin
dled by tbe trembling oulprlt, who walked lame
and played ignorance last evening. He has not
only swindled this woman, bnt he has added the
crime of forgery ; he has forged the name of Mayor
Henry; he has forged your own name;, he has
committed torgery In a hundred ways, by tele
graph, to give the oolor of truth to hlslmamous
proceedings; to enable him to fleece an unsuspect
ing and confiding woman. Why, sir, such Infamy
Is so mean, so despicable, Indeed, that the guilty
wretoh Is too mean to be a man. Your Honor,!
feel for tuts woman, so grossly wronged of her sav
ings, and to such a mean manner that the peniten
tiary Is entirely too decent a place for the self-con
fbssed, self-condemned culprit to goto. My client
1b ready to give baok tbe house to Mrs. walker,
with the full satisfaction of knowing there Is a
{tower to place the truly guilty party where he be
ongs.
During these scathing remarks the prisoner held
his head down, and trembled like an aspen leaf.
He wus oonfmltted, in default of $2,000 ball, to an
swer.

[Before Mr. Alderman Pottingar.J
DISORDERLY HOUSE.
An aged woman, giving the name of Mary Laden,
residing in Catharine street, below Second, was ar
raigned yesterday off the charge of keeping a dis
orderly house. It Is alleged that this place is a
resort for drunken, worthless wretches, and a night
or two slnae a quarrel occurred there, In whloh an
Inebriate woman was terribly beaten. This led to
the arrest of the alleged proprietress. Two aban
doned females were arrested in the house. The
party were committed to prison.
MORE STORES BOBBERIES,
At an early hour, yesterday morning, the store of
J. B. Cowperthwalte & Co., at Arch and Ninth
streets, was feloniously entered and robbed of about
$1,600 worth of shawls and silk goods. The despoil,
ers entered the adjoining building, on Ninth street,
and bored their way through a wooden partition.
The robbers forced the fastenings from tho door on
Arch street, and made their exit that way.
The store olMr. T. Henry, on South Ninth street,
was entered on Thursday night, and robbed of $2,000
worth of silk and other good a This, with the heavy
robbery of a silk store on North Second street, to tn
amount of $B,OOO, has awakened nnusual excitement
among the police. Our city Is probably infested
with some of tbedesperate thieves who escaped from
Southern prisons recently.
