BISHOP STEVENS AND REV. DRS, HOWE AND LEE. 'THE FUNERAL, AND THE INTERMENT AT LAUREL RILL 'The ftmeral ceremonies of the Rt. Rev. Alonzo Potter, late Bishop of the Diocese of Pennsylvania, were held yesterday afternoon, at Christ Chureh, Second street, aboveldarket. BishOp Potter WaS porn in Beekman, (now La grange), Neiv York, on the kith day of July, in the year 1800. He graduated at Union College, Schenectady, N. Y., in 1818, with distinguished honor, and was immedialeiy elected tutor in that college. In 1821 he was elected Professor V . Mathematics and Natural Philosophy, but remained in that position but a short time, He retired therefrom with a view Of pursuing his theological studies. He was ordained a Deacon in .April,lB2l, and a Priest in 1824. He became rector of St. Paul's Church, Boston, in 1826, and remained there until 1831, when he returned to Union College in the capacity of Professor of ItioralVhilosophy, and Vice Pre sident of the College. The degree of D. D. was conferred upon him by Harvard and Gambier Colleges, and LL. D. by Union College, in 1816. On the twenty-V:llrd day of September,lB4s, he Was consecrated Bishop of Pennsylvania, as successor of Bishop Onderdonk, at Cill'iSt Church, which position he occupiedat the time of his death. During the twenty years that Bishop Potter has held official station in this diocese lie has identified his name with many of the benevolent institutions of the city. Amovgst those Which lie was most active in founding and carrying on successfully are the Hospital of the Church in Philadelphia, the "Clergy Daughters' Fund," " The Divinity School," and " The Institution for Feeble minded Children." Bishop Potter was also distinguished as an author. "The Principles of Science Applied to the Domestic and Mechanic Arts," was pall lished in' 1841, and "Political Economy; its Objects, 'Uses, &c.," in the same year. In 1844 published a popular work called "The 'School and Schoolmaster." In 1858 he pre pared "The Handbook for Readers and Students." As a preacher, Bishop Potter is-as grave, thoughtful, and instructive, with. out affectation of fine rhetoric; his style - was pure, simple, and terse. one was more impressed with the force and truth of his remarks than the splendor of the man. lathe tint years of his Episcopate, he delivered in the city of Boston, before the Lowell Insti tute, in the presence of large and delighted assemblies, a series of lectures on "Natural "Religion and Christian Evidences," which astonished and delighted his hearers by their depth of thought, their beauty and force of illustration, and their felicity of expression; the more so as he came to the speaker's stand - without a note of any hind. During his occupancy of the office of Bishop of this State, he made many warm friends by the courtesy of his manner, and the en larged Christian charity which was ever his characteristic. His devotion to his of fice broke down his constitution, which was not naturally robust, and his visiteto the Pacific coast was intended to recuperate his exhausted .energies. His friends had much hope in the beginning of the voyage that his _health would be entirely restored, but at Panama he was seized with the local fever of that place, which resulted in his death. TRH FUNERAL .

"Mr. McAllister, from the diocese of California, then read the address of sympathy from the Standing Committee of the Diocese of California to the Standing Committee of this Dioeese. It contained many expressions Of sorrow and sympathy 'for the bereaved. Bishop Stevens, in reply, said that in the name and behalf of the churches of this diocese lie thanked him, and through him the dio- cese of California for the sincere, affection ate, and tender solicitude they had exercised towards a beloved Bishop who had died among them, and was dead here to-day. For the com fort they had given him when be departed in the rid:mesas of grace, here, in the presence of this audience, to.day, he thanked them all for this; and, though there were none of his sons in Christ present with him in his dying moments, it was comforting to know that they had taken the care of him which they had been assured was So kind.

Dr. Merton, then read the address of the Church at California, which was published in The Press of yesterday. - Rev. Dr. Howe then delivered the following address ADDRESS OF DR. HOWE It always seems to me somewhat like pre- sumption for a living man to speak in the presence of death. It seems ever to remind we of the revelation or tile promises of God's words, and to imply a sorrowful exercise of prayer. It seems much more important to me than anything which can be brought to it. It suggests to me so many problems which llaitu cannot solve. It is ever an inscrutable mystery; it is eloquent of past memories ; full Of sOlenin Interest. Now in dm presence of this death, so full of large significance, how much more unnecessary it is to inflict upon you any words; to speak in this august presence of one from whom you, for a score of years, have had the privilege of listening with free, admiring ears, but who now is silent—silent in your very midst; with sealed lips, stilled heart ; with resting brain, the goodness all quenched, which once shorts from his godly eyes. I thought it would have been my pri. vliege, as one who was associated with him in the 'ministry, to have mourned the blotf, in silence ; for I would rather have followed the example of Bliphaz and his friends who went to console the afflicted Job, but rather ex pressed their sympathy by sitting in silence seven days. But custom makes it right, In the solemnities of such a day as to - bow to Christian wishes, and give vocal expression to our feelings in these moments of bereave ment. It would not do in these moments to dilate upon our loss, or to gratify or intensify our grief, by restoring the memory of our de solation. It would be more Christian to raise our hearts to the right hand of the Most High, to record the good acts in the life of this most godly man, and manifest our gratitude in the memory of the blest. Beloved, it is not for me to do Justice to the subject in the few moments which are allotted to me. That must be reserved for another time and to abler hands. You to whom he ministered know that his character seemed very complete and rounded. I am not a man of sufficient stature to take the measure of his - moral or intellectual perfectness, therefore, y ShOtila 1115 character was so ],urely balanced, so excellent in itself, that I scarcely could dwell upon it should I speak far better. His heart was all a g low with triotism in the very midst of his country's trials. HIS Were virtues and abilities, indeed. I might speak enthusiastically of this holy man ; I might speatc of Wm as a bishop, as a mm, as a sympathizing friend. In all these qualities, there is alrwe could - wish him to be—every thing:Wade towardsthe..completeness of his .ebaractei:—lnall the services of the capacity .every trial found him its equal. In his Intel tectual he was like he was in his physical ;stature; he eeeMed always to me to be after he model of the immortal Washington of w horn it was said there was no salient points in hie character. All were complete,- every -thhig was finely, fully developed. .heleveds - If there is a province into which I do not feel like entering on this mournful oc . e l ision, when this great community is gathered t odether to pay their last respects to their de parted bishop and great citizen—if there is any province into which I might not desire to enter, it is the sanctuary of private grief—to draw its veil asunder to the mine gaze. 'But it must be that the. liht which shone si) brightly from him when he - was in life. must have fallen with a peculiar lustre upon those who now sUffer. lint the family circle is now left with. nothing but the memory of that light. But what was . the legacy he left? What graces has:God given them . 1 Let me direct their attention, then, to the three prominent and conspicuous traits in 'which the departed Bishop manifested a sin.gu lar union of ideas, as a public man, as a leader of the laity, as a bishop and adminis trator. From the very first he manifested a singular aptitude for overnment in any sphere of life. Doubtless'his long experience at the head Of a eellege, contributed to himthis faculty before Goa sent him among us. - When he came to us he came to find an afflicted and divided diocese. He came conscious that a. single mistake would leave his flock Worse almost than he found them. Btit God - gave him strength and great ability. He looked - upon our clergymen as his own Sons in the ministry ; he knew them well and dearly; he read the special Character of each and every one ; he brought the power of each into full growth—each he made, useful; he -never gossiped about his clergy; he never made a single one the subject of censorious conversation with any one. As a faithful father, where it was necessary, he adminis tered a parental rebuke in the moat secret pri vacy, so that every one received it without having in the slightest degree lost the posses sion of his self-respect. He got rid of differ ences and controversies upon ecclesiastical and theological matters, not by prescription of those in power over him, not by the issu ance of any prelatical bull. "or manifesto, but by drawing men together, urging them in good works, and keeping them in the work of good. Thus he broke up, and always entirely removed diffleulties. He himself exemplified what he enjoined upon others. There was no room for absurd work, no room nor time for solemn trifles. Any man,when - work was to be done, who was or felt himself a drone, or felt himself uncom fortable in the general stir, could withdraw himself. In the direction of affairs in this great diocese many and happy changes have been wrought. What a charm has been dif fused throughout it What harmony of feel ing and kindly greeting of hearts! What grace has been given by God, who watches over us! I see another marl: of his character, his ad ministrative qualities, his skill and power, in the accomplishment of the great interests of the Church. So diverse were his duties that little time was left for the performance of any one of them. He had great capacity— was full of original plans. He had a great power of invention, such a practical turn of mind,that whenever anything was , suggested in has thoughts, it:was immediately tested practically. He was always reminded that in the accomplishment of a great work, co-operation was necessary. He had that ca pacity that when anything was proposed, he took the standpoint from which other men looked, and considered his own suggestions as if from other eyes, as it appeared to other minds. He never proposed what other men would consider an albuse and what would. not be generally admitted 'by those who could fairly admit it. This gave him a, mighty hold upon the laity of this diocese, Who knew the mind which directed the - whole church. He did not interfere in the affairs of a parish, or inquire into its fiscal affairs. He had a mar vellous power too, over other men. How skil ful he was in hie Cc:lnduct of affairs. Witness his magnificent wisdom in the erection of the Protestant Episcopal Hospital, and the Divi nity School, for which in less than ten years, through his influence, 8500,000. has been con tributed. Beloved: There was another normal trait in our Bishop's character to which I wish to ad vert, and that, it seems to me, crowns his graces—shows his catholicity of spirit. He was too great a man to be a little convention alist. He loved all Who loved religion. He was tolerant of a difference of opinion, but in and out of the church he manfully contended for the faith delivered to the saints. Brought into the church by conviction, he had a love for all Christian people. My reverend breth ren can - call to mind that he was one Of the earliest friends and one of the most zea lous contributors to what was called the Memorial Denominationalist, in which he contemplated a church (our own church) the centre of a visible unity, and believed that something could be done among those who professed faith in Christ by a deno mination in which all could meet, he wished, which would not be subject to the scoffs of the world. To so change the lives of men so that they could say," See how the Christians love !" instead of the jeer of the present day, "See how the Christians hate one another!" One of thp noblest monuments of the memorial were the "memorial papers." These he con tributed, and drew the warm sympathies of many hearts, rich and fruitful. Nis best efforts were towards drawing all in the bonds of Christian unity. Beloved, in amoment like this we learn a great lesson. My heart responds to your sympathies. He was among the first to labor towards the - restoration of our own church, and today, all over the great diocese, the hearts of our laity are turned, one towards another. There isteft diocese—a monument to him—which is doubled in its strength. There is left a spirit of harmony breathing everywhere. There are left sensible monu ments of his wisdom, to some of which I have incidentally adverted, and many others in the origin of which be participated. There is left a policy ; there is left, in the goodness of Providence, a successor who has been trained in his school—one thoroughly 9- ipiainted with his policy. May he be, we pray God, may he be preserved to continue that school, in that policy, and fulfill those wished-for measures, walk in the footsteps be followed for years. He died as he had lived, with his armor on. Bless God that when he saw the last of earth on a far-off shore, he opened the eye of the Spirit in a better lend. In the very midst of the . dis charge of his high duties, he left behind magnificent prints of mind and soul. We bless His holy name for the precious fruits we are reaping in our own diocese. Since the dead Bishop has been gathered home, his epi taph can be written like the epitaph on the walls of St. Paul's Cathedra, London, com memorating the name of Sir Christopher requirts 7/11Ar. ~,,, ..redtax% eiveumapice. "Bishop Lee, of Delaware, then made the fol, lowing remarks : He said he would not detain his hearers many moments on an occasion like the - present, and were he to consult his Own feelings he was dis posed to dwell on the loss sustained, and the sorrow that has filled our hearts. It was not so much a time for lamentation as for praise. While we cannot but mourn the great loss we have sustained, we should, glorify and praise God for the example of His departed servant. Blessed be the name of the Lord that He had given us such a servant, and that we had been permitted to see Such natural gilts so well im proved. Bethought it a greatprivilege that he was permitted to be acquainted with such a man. Again, we may thank God that such a work was given thisman to do. He was placed in the centre of a State vast in extent and great in resources. He was surrounded by sympa thiZing clergy, and when he devised any great TAgg, they w ere carried out with efficiency. Some of the noblest men alio have ever lived have met with stumbling blocks at every step of their way; but it suited God, who ordains our lot, to give our departed Bishop such a held in which he could labor with the best re sults. His course has been growing brighter with the perfect day. There are many men wno, having occupied high positions, have , lived too long to finish their record with honor ' and usefulness. Not so in the case of our loved Bishop. His sun,grew brighter and bright er until its final setting in a perfect day. Again., such a man as our departed Bishop, he thaniced God could never die. He would continue to live and animate this community for all time. The man who was loyal to his Gad; his country, his Saviour, his Church, and humanity, cannot depart. His memory will be cherished, his acts treasured, and the name of Alonzo Potter 'will be remembered after Nall present here today shall go to the place appointed for all living. In conclusion, he requested all to remember those who had ehar,ge over them, and hoped that they might be led to Chrinl who was the same yesterday, to day, and forever. J. C. Cresson L. It. Ashurat, Esq., Herman Cope, Esq., Hon. Alex. Henry. The choir chanted the following - Verse : I heard a voice from heaven, saying unto me, Write, from henceforth blessed are the deed who die in the Lord ' • even so saith the Spirit ; for they rest from their labors. Rev. X1v.13 Music from Mozart's Twelfth Mass. The usual prayers followed, including a prayer for the afflicted family and diocese. Bishop Stevens delivered the benediction. ' The body was then taken to Laurel Hill Cemetery, followed by a large concourse of relatives and friends, and interred with the impressive services of the Episcopal Church. After the impressive services at the Church the remains of the Reverend Bishop were con veyed to the hearse In waiting. The reverend clergy, with uncovered heads, received them and a posse of Reserve officers, with white gloves, and standing with great precision, pre vented the crowd from approaching. Every thing was conducted with the greatest deco rum, and the funeral cortege passed up Second street to Arai, thence to Twelfth street, and up to Ridge avenue, and so to the Laurel Hill Cemetery. A large number of sympathizing friends were alongboth sides of Arch street, and the male portion of them took off their hats, while the ladies wept. All along the route of the mournful procession numbers of friends were standing, and the scene was solemn and im pressive. As the carriages containing the distin guished clergymen entered North Laurel 1111 1 Cemetery, en immense number of ladies stood on either side of the road ; and silently looked upon the sad procession,. Amid a golden sun, down the remains of the lamented Bishop were taken from the funeral car, and borne up to the place made for the reception of his remains. The Right Rev. Bishop Stevens read the solemn said impressive service of the Episco pal Church in cases of burial, and alongside the banks of the Schuylkill the remains were deposited. The number of carriages in the cortege was forty-six, and the cemetery was filled with private equipages, many of the most intern• gent and best of our citizens being present. The twilight added to the solemnity of the occasion, and the chirp of the cricket, the placid waters of the Schuylkill, the vestments of the distinguished clergy, and the breath less attention of the vast audience, all lent a sacredness to the occasion not often witnessed.

TEE ATHLETIC AND TEM CAMDEN. A BIG THX/RgDAY IN JERSEY, The "Active" Base Ball Club, or at least the first nine of the same, that arrived in Phila. delphia on Wednesday for the purpose of win. ning a ball from each of the Philadelphia clubs and those in the vicinity, met with a most de cided defeat yesterday, by the first nine of the Camden. The thrilling scenes occurred on the spacious field near 'the Diamond Cottage, in the village which skirts the Delaware, oppee site Philadelphia. It may be es well to state the condition of the weather. - The sun was clouded ; the wind blew in fitful gusts from the northwest and was cool. It was sufficiently strong, however, at times, to have consider able effect on the ball, that whizzed under the propelling power of the bat through ethereal space to a remarkable height, and to great distances; in some instances to the extent of one hundred and seventy-five or eighty yards. This afforded a splendid opportunity to ex hibit the fielding skill of the players. It was good on both sides ; and it WAS COnfessed.that that of the Actives could not be excelled. Some of the "fly catches" were extraordina ry, requiring great activity and the most con summate skill to ensure success. It will be . seen that no less than twenty-five of these catches were made, every one of them requiring so - much expertness that drew forth universal applause, and in 0118 or two instances cheers were given. There were leveral unusual scenes ; one of them, for the novelty, caused some laughter. "Camden" had the bat, and directed a well intended blow to send the ball to the utmost bounds, so that a run to the second, or perhaps third base, or even home," might be gained. The ball, however, glanced, from the twist given it by the "pitelier," audit came in core tact with the sconce of the "back-stop.". What made this the more laughable tir ELS the fact that up to this 'part of the game, the "Ac. tives" were cheered considerably, and the "back-stop" had only a moment before this removed his cap, which he twirled to the ground. At a subsequent period he received the ball on the front of his throat, in the region of " Adam's apple," from the effects of which he came very near fainting. He, however, bore up with remarkable indifference against these mishaps, and kept up to his work like a veteran. There were a large number of spectators present, among them some of the most re spectable residents of Camden and its sur roundings. The ladies, bless them, were also there, to give the SeMbUMW of grace and beauty to the scene, and they appeared to be delighted and interested in the grand and thrilling events of the afternoon. The hour of three haying arrived, the star-spangled banner,was run to the top of the staff, and the game commenced—the Actives being at the bat, At the conehision of the fourth inning the excitement began to increase, for up to this time the Camden led the Active five and one half to one. At the end of the fifth inning, however, the game stoodalmost eleven to nine in favor of the Camden. The New York friends of the Actives, were free in their talk, but at the end of the next, innings the Actives were "skunked" for the third time. The next trial also ended in a " skunk." This was the,seventh inning.. The game now stood Camden nine teen, the Active eleven. The eighth inning concluded by the Camden being 66 skunked," but the Actives made only four. Now the friendg of the Camden were in great glee. The other side tried to appear cheerful, but it was evident they were drooping in spirits, and could not hope to " win the ball." The ninth and, of course, last inning was contested in the most 'determined manner; the pitchers, on both sides, tried to put their opponents out at the first, second, and third bases, but in vain. Some of the fielding, at this time, was an ex. cellent display of skill, and finally the inning resulted in favor of the Actives by four to three for the Camden. Cheers were now given alternately for the respective clubs. The Actives were evidently crest-fallen ; but the Camden wore the blush ing honors well. The following is the score ACTIVES. o. B.

The Camden, who had been beatenlive times successively, we believe, by the Athletics, were, of course, high in. the scale of artistic importance, and-Mr. Fitzgerald " threw down the glove" to them, and they picked it up in stanter, The time tixed for the great trial is next Thursday afternoon, on the grounds of the Camden Club. It will be a "Dig Thursday" in Jersey. There was to be a game between the "Ac' tive " and the "Keystone? on the grounds of of the Olympic, this afternoon. This has been peAponed, in conSequenee of several of the first-class players of the Keystone being at Newport and Saratoga, which precludes the possibility of their attendance; A REMARKABLE CASE.—In the year 1858 the attention Of Fire xtrarsnai Blackburn was called to the case of two fires that occurred in Chestnut street. Two girls—one a stout per sonage who hailed from Ireland, and a little colored girl—lived in the house. The latter declared that she had seen the Irish girl on the steps coming from the direction of the fires on both occasions. It is true that she did not state thal s tbe girl came from the room where the fires were discovered, but she persisted in her statement as to seeing the Irish girl come from that direction. ' Recorder Rneu, who heard the eases at the Central Station during this period, refused to bind over the Irish girl, not deeming the evi dence sufficient- to warrant him in doing so. The female portion of the family believed the 'lrish girl to be guilty, but the master of the house agreed with the Fire Marshal and Re corder as to the innocence of the white woman and guilt of the colored girl. This colored girl was a sprightlyliftlething, and possessed a peculiar cunning that was well calculated to win the affections of all with whom she met. After the discharge of the white woman, the Fire Marshal discovered some additional evidence against the colored girl, and concluded to arrest her. While en gaged in searching out her whereabouts, an officer arrived from Woodbury, N. J., and stated that the colored girl referred to had been arrested in his county up the charge of arson, 814 vats §ubSectuentls taken before Judge rotts t when she odilfeSsed to having set fire to a harm-assigning as a reason, that the lady with whom she lived offended her. Judge Potts sentenced' her to an incarceration of seven years, all of which she Served. A number of members of the Society 'of Friends in New Jersey and Pennsylvania in terested themselves in this girl, and when she left prison she was enabled to read, and was au jail in citing passages of scripture. Thinking she was penitent, a gentleman re siding in Bucks county induced a friend of his to take the girl With him. It must be recoi; lected that the girl had nOwreached the age of maturity, and everything went on well for a time. The family with whom she lived had two elegant flower-beds, and one morning it was discovered that every flower had been taken from one of them. This was passed over, anti yet suspicion was attracted toward a colored man in the neigh borhood, who did not bear a very enviable reputation. It was through the statement of the girl that the suspicion rested upon this roan. In a short time the watch of the proprietor of tbe house was discovered to have been tampered with, the bands being broken, The lady of the house was in the room where the watch was, and yet she cannot conceive who injured it. A ham was finally taken from the premises; and now the son. of the prOprietor of the house caused a search-warrant to be issued, and the colored mans house was searched in vain. A. few days afterwards, the ham was found in a sluice near the premises. The next difficulty that was discovered was the lartairing up of the milking-pails, and they too were sent into the sluice... A few days since this girl came in to thelady with whom she lived, and told her .that she beard a strange rustling in the garden east of the house. The lady said she would investi gate the singular noise, if her husband did-not come home in time to do so. The girl was en. gaged in paring pears, and started out to empty the parings. The lady was suddenly attracted by a bright light reflecting against her window, and upon looking out discovered her barn on are. The girl ran in and told the lady to help to get the carriages OUt, and ,She assisted in getting one out. The lady told her to get the bell and ring it in the road, so as to attract the attention of the neighbors. She took the .bell and proceeded towards the road, after which she Maraca an% said pile had iren. a THE PRESS.-PHILADELPHIA, SA TURDAY, AUGUST 12, 186&: man running across a field, and bad no doubt be was the man who set fire to the barn. Now there is a clump of woods near the house, and any incendiary would doubtless have affected his escape in this manner; and not thrOugh an open field. A number of ladles came over to the fire, and their attention was attracted by this girl to the only remaining flower bed, and on examination discovered that every flower had been taken from the place and left near the front door, the earth being fresh upon it. This same girl called the attention of some of the neighbors to something Wrong in the garden, and upon looking there thirty heads of cabbage were discovered in a pile, having been dug up and laid together. • A justice of the peace has had the girl before him, and Fire Marshal Blackburn has identi fied her as the same girl he was looking for in le58; yet the evidence is not sufficient, in,the opinion of the justice, to hold her.
