the two Syoods met at the corner of Smithfield
and Seventh sts. Here they foil in, in order of
seniority, by Presbyteries. The procession
marched in doable files, one file representing the
late A. R. Synod- and tho other the Associate
Synod.
The weather, which had been for'several days
exceedingly dark, gloomy and rainy f suddenly
cleared, and the sun came forth in all its glory,
to smile upon this union of Christians iu one
band. Tho whole procession then marched on
to City Hall This largo room, capable of hold
ing about 2300 peoplo on the floor, was speodily
crowded to its utmost capacity. Not only was
the floor full, but (he galleries and lobbies were
Crowded with the interested or the curious.—The

Rer. Dr. Cooper offered & most fervent and
effective prayer while the vast assembly was
bashed iolo’silcnce.
The flinging of the 100th Psalm to Old Hun
. dred had the most thrilling effect of any tbiog
wo ever beard. Three thousand human voices
' raised at once to the praise of Ood is something
that one does not often hear in this world. The
Bounds of the street were drowsed, or the pas
ser paased to catah the choral cote as it resoun
ed through the Hall, or was borne away over the
city on the breeze
Rev. Dr. Rodgers, of Allegheny city, then ad
dressed the vast assembly. Fie said it was the
most interesting scene he had ever witnessed in
his life. This vast aasemby bears witness that
this anion has the sympathy of allchristian peo
ple. Oar brethren in Christ’have como op here
to rejoice with us in the joyful, feeling of our
hearts. It is not here alone wo have sympathy.
Every vrhero the news of this union gives joy.—
Norton earth alone, but in Heaven Lbere is joy ;
there is joy over one sinner that repenteth, and
' what exceeding joy most fallow there at this
scene. Oh that I could ltfl my voice that it
might be heard every where throughout the
' , land. In this union there is not onetruthaban
•* doned ; we have brought nearly all our breth
ren with uS ; the spirit of God has beenpoared
oat and the Lord has brought about this anion;
p. - heart to heart wo are united to contend for the
faith delivered to the Saints. In
me ask, in what way is oar union to be a bless
ing to U* and in advancing the kingdom of
Christ? By seeking for a further outpouring
of the Spirit. A worklog church is an united
church. Del as be a working charcb, working
at home and abroad. A working church must
have an earnest ministry. Let us go down from
here to dedicate ourselves anew to the Lord
Jesus Christ. An earnest is a successful minis
try. Let us Imitate the blessed Master and tbe
great Apostle to the Gentiles and not cease to
warn eioners, night and day, to flee from the
wrath to come. In conclusion, Dr. Rodgers re
ferred to Dr. Payson as a model of earnestness
and of prayerful discharge of duty. • When
dead, Dr. Payson wished written and pinned
upon his breast, as he jay a corpse—“ Reme
mber the words I spoke when l was with you.
Ret. J. T. Pressly, D. D., said—what means
this vast assembly? What has called this vast
audience together? It is the spectacle which
angels witness with joy—brethren long ecclesi-;
astioally separated,- united in one. This union
has been brought about not by might or by
power, bat by the spirit of God. la answer to
tbe prayers that have been offered op for more
than twenty years, we are here this day under
each blessed auspices. It is sometimes God's
good pleasure that his people should wait loog,
bat the prayer of faith is never lost. God has
at last taught us that a man’s heart may devise
his way,"bnt Uod directeth his steps. This union
da the result of tho outpouring of the spirit of
. God. We-met for prayer and conference in the
city of Xenia and God blessed our meeting and
has brought about this which you now see.
now what is requisite that this union may be
prospered t- Let brotherly lore continue. Let
us follow (he things that make for peace. Hold
fast tho faith onco delivered to tho Saints. Let
us go forward in tho great work for which the
gospel was instituted, to spread the good news
of Salvation to the ends of tbe earth.
Rev. Mr. Smart said that it might be asked
why he, ono of the Dissenters of last week, bad
• - been called to speak. He would say, in Ihe lan
guage of Scripture, “when thou art converted,
strengthen thy brethren.” Year after year of
contest and trial had laid stratum upon stratum
of this union which we consummate. There is
nobody in the United States which bos a more
important position Ilian that of tbe United Pres
byterian Qb'urch. Tho eyes of all Evangelical
Churches are upon us. The eyes of God’s peo
ploarc upon you, to see what you will do in your
; Union. The fears of conscientious and godly

phalanx, doing battle for God. But let os not
cease to work. Let us go forward with our

love, in the service of our Lord and Savior.
. Bcr. Jamea Preatly said: Why I hare been
' leleotedie-fttfrenthisßittUng, I knew not, on-
less by way of contrast. I come, however, to
perform my duty, trusting to promised grace. I
hate taken a great interest in this Union. 1 ee
tenlay, when the clouds bellowed up and cover
ed the earth with raio, I wondered whcLher the
sky would smile npon this Union: bul to-day
God has seen fit to pour his sunshine upon us.
In our preliminary discussion, I saw a type of
- the lowering elements; but with this union the
. dark clouds have rolled away in out moral as
they have in tho natural horizon.
We are at length here to consummate union,
aod what a scene is before us ! Like two rtvers
these two Synods blowcd into each other on
their way hither, and here they sit a type of tlie
unity which exists in our hearts. Wo are here
assembled in love; the love of God resin upon
this vast assembly. Tbero is also here a holy
peace, the pence of God that, passeth all under
standing: the peace of God the Father and of
his son, Jesus Christ. There is also another
grace here: holy joy that our hearts and bands
are here united in one. It is n-» human joy. but
the joy of Lhe Holy Ghost. And what has kept
us apart so long ? Why, for 22 years, have we
been working separately ? It has been 'caused
by sin, by pride of opinion, pride of feeling. If
this union shall not be entire, if any shall with
hold, it will be on account of worldliness and
pride. If theso have separated us, the power of
God has united us; it ba9 bought us together.
I was grieved when a few held out; but their
way is being made brighL by the sun light of
God, and the mountains that arose before aro
melting in the light of love like wax. Obslrnc
liods are being removed out of the way. This
is a day in which we ought to make a new cove
enant with God and go before him in the closet.
But my mind does not stop here : it looks for
ward to the time when we shall all be united in
heaven for ever: there we shall praise God for
ever, having grace sod love without measure.
Dr. Kcit HUggcsteJ t hat we hear a word or two
from brethren of other denominations.
Rev. W. S. Plummer, of the 0. S. Presbyteri
an Church, said he had nothing to say about the
terms of the Union. What 1 have got to ask is,
what are you going to do now? and to cry go
forth and carry the gospel to all the ends of the
earth. Christ will be with you. The great
truths of the gospel, I believe, that (here is to
bo a universal judgment, a resurrection of the
dead, and that tho glory of God shall.cover the
earth. Within the next 38 years tflPfcest com
mentators believe that the Gospel will be car
ried over the whole earth. If in that time we
do our duty, it will he glorious enough to have
lived; belter than to live in tho Millenium itself.
Better it Is to do a soldier’s duty than to wear a
soldier’s crown.
The prayer of Rev. Mr Davidson was full of
pathos, and very fervent.
After siuging tbe Doxology, (72J IGnltn’, aud lhe
Benediction by Dr. McLaren, tbo united Synod met
and was cnnititntcd. The exercise!! were 50 arrang
ed, as to bo in no way tircsomo. Each speaker had
15 minutes appropriated to them, and all of thorn
kept within the time.
On motion of Dr. Pressly the Union was formally
constituted by Dr. McLaren's extending the right
band of fellowship in the name of the A. K. Synod.
Dr. Cooper, in the n&mc of tho Associate Synod,
said, “I give not only a brother’s band but a broth
er’s heart. Let us bury in one common gtavo our
differences. We have raised a banner inscribed npon
theoQe lido ‘Truth to tbo Lord.' and on tbo other
‘Forbearance io Lore.' ”
Tho United Synod was then constituted with
prayer by Uev. Dr. McLaren. Thus commenced the
new era, a time to date from, a day to bo remember
ed by a whole peculiar people.
Rev. Dr. Pressly was appointed Moderator of tbo
first Synod of tbo United Presbyterian Churcbc* of
North America. Dr. Wilsoo, of Xenia, was chosen
Secretary pro ten l by act-tarnation.
Dr. Pressly then said ho rendered thanks t 1 God

House, and will open it for tho season ou the

bountiful hospitality in the Bt. Lawrence we

The Tableau or Lucknow.— We were not at

Pboi'Ebty.—The Monongahela, which on Tqcs
day night was at barely a 7 feet stage of water,
commenced to rise rapidly during the night and
yesterday evening hod reached a stage of 25 feet
‘“-a riso of 18 feet in as many hours. The heavy
rain of Monday and Tuesday was quite general
over the country, extending to the head waters
of both tho Allegheny and Monongahela. and all
the tribularie&of those streams rose rapidly and
suddenly, in many coses overflowing tbo banks
and doing immense injury to property.
The Allegheny drains a much larger surface
of country than the Monongahela and (he rise
iu that stream was only beginning yesterday
aflernoon. It will doubtless pour out a flood,
as we have intelligence from Franklin and other
sources that the rain was very heavy nil along
tbe country drained by the Allegheny That
stream will probably, this morning, ho pouring
out as great a flood n- the Monongahela whs yes
terday.
Tbe rise, in tbe latter whs po ratpid aoJ great
as to cut o!F tbo nteamboat eoqjmunication be
tween hero aod Brownsville, it being impossible
for tho boats to pass under the Moningabela
City bridgo. There were consequently 'no arri
vals or departures yesterday, and we are with
out intelligence from the various points above.
We learn, however, that the destruction of pro
perty is large. One pair of coal boat* went over
tho first dam yesterday morning, and several
barges, and the wreck of soveral coal boats went
p tat during the morning, which were probably
wrecked on tho second dam. One loaded coal
boat, belonging to O’Conner, slipped her moor
ings, and ran on the ways, where she sunk. Six
barges, tied near tho bridge, some of them laden
cd with coal, were carried off, along with coal
boats from a short distance further up the bank
of tbo river. Lumber of various kinds was car
ried down in immense quantities, one gentleman
alone, losing nearly a million feet. The loss of
lumber alone is estimated at $50,000.
Tlia banks of the Allegheny were lined with
rafts and lumber drawn out ready to be hauled
away. Not much of the latter was carried away,
but several rafts broke from their moorings and
passed down.
The people in the lower part of Allegheny City
wero getting alarmed, and many were moving
out to get out of the way of the advancing river,
(hi Wood street, in (his city, those whose cellars
are connected with the «ewer which empties into
tho riTer at the fool of that street were removing
their goods, fearing an eruption of water.
Later. —A coal boat was broken looso by a
drifting flat running against it, above the dam,
in the morning, and after passing over sunk just
below the dam. We could not ascertain the
name of the owner.
J. *S. Hyde, whose lumber yard is above Mil
lingar's, on the Monongahela, opposite the city,
had2»,OUO feet of lumber carried off. He saved
B'HX) feet, and will probably save nearly all of
(he remainder, below
Two or threo of the coal platforms up the
Monongahela were carried away during the day,
one with a large frame shanty attached. A large
quantity of all kinds of drift was passing down.
A stone-boat was carried down from the Bir
mingham bridge.
On the Allegheny, there was comparatively
little loss, so far. The river wa9 Tanning out in
the evening rather slowly, not being so high as
the other, and but very little drift was coming
down. Portions of two board rafts struck the
piers, one io the morning and the other in the
eveuiog, but they were not destroyed and we
understand were landed in the Ohio. The men
managed to keep on board, except one, who
clung to tho pier (ill rescued by a skiff
We are told that the river has washed into the
canal above Freeport, rendering it impassable
at (hat point.
Along the Allegheny wharf, the lumber was
being secured by a large force of men. Not
much of it was carried off, having been sur
rounded by large flats, preventing it from going
dowu.
Wo learn l»y passengers ou the railroad, that
the t’ouemaugh was high and rising fast. The
Loyalhnnna was over its banks, carrying ofl
fences, cattle, and everything moveable. Turtle
Greek had spread all over the bottom-lands
along its course, and was oyer the bridge at the
old turnpike crossing.
Still Later —As wo write, at ten o’clock
P. M , the Allegheny river is still rising at the
rale of six inches an hour, with 25 feet large in
the channel, nnd it is still raining If the rise
continue at the present rate for twelve hours
more, which appears probable, we shall have
hard on 20 feet water in the channel The low
parts of the First Ward, Allegheny city, were
all under water last night, and those near the
woier level were moving their effects, as speedily
as possible, to higher ground.
!1 i o'clock, P. M. It has been raining hard
all night, and i-* now having n regular pour
down. We learn that the water is np to Robin

We hate not room, Ibis morning, to give an

take pleasure in stating, however, that each lot

office of the Cemetery. The report contains a
complete catalogue of all tbe lot-holders, and
many other matters of interest, together with
an appendix embracing tbe report of 1848 and
the oration of Wilson McCandless over the re
mains of Com. Barney.
Banfobu's Lived Inviuoratob. —We invite
attention to tbe advertisement of tbe above val
uable medicine, compounded by Dr. Sanford, of
New York, who for tweoty years has prescribed
it in his practice. It is peculiarly Adapted io
dibeases of the liver aud digestive organs, and
tbe writer of this has become cognizant of many
extreme cases of years suffering with hepatic
.derangement, that have been restored to health
by its use. Dr. Hanford has studied tho func
(ions of the liver with tnoro than ordinary care,
and the result is Ibis valuable tonio medicine,
which not only relieves the congestion and torpor
consequent upon liver complaint, but makes
thorough work by performing in most cases a
radical cure. The medicine may be had at Dr.
Keyser’s, No 140 Wood street. *

ation of a million three hundred and fifty thousand
dollars for five steam sloops of war heretofore’ au

Two thirds of thoso who man our national ships
aro foreigners, and did ho not know that a bill had
passed the Senate, the effect oi which, if not tbe pur
pose, was to destroy tbe only school for native sea
men that we have.
MV. Jones replied that it was tho duty of the gov
ernment to buy ships, but he nerer before knew that
it was a part 6f the duty of government to buy men
or tarnish money to bay them.
Mr. Washburno said that was what tbo adminis
tration bad been doing tbe wholo session. (Laughter
on tbo Republican side.)
Tbo bill as amended was laid asido to be reported

Whole on the state of the Union, when on motion ol
Mr. J. Glancy Jones, the Committee took up the
bill appropriating four millions of dollars to pay tbe
expenses of collecting tbo revenue from customs,
making tbe system general and requiring all tho
revenue to be paid into the treasury without abate
ment.
Tbe bill was laid aside to be reported to tbe House.
Tho bill making appropriations for tho expenses
of tho Post Office Department was then taken up.
Mr. Letchor, of Vo., offered an amendment, which
was ruled out of order, proposing to increase tho rate
of postage to 5 cents.

The whole surface of the Mononpibela w** covered with
drift; the piers of the bridge bicckod up with floating tim
ber, tree* end stamp*; rails have been carried awey and
dashed to pieces; coal boats have been sunk, and general
devastation «u all hands, wherever the flood could reach.
The whole long liuo of boats loom up almost even with
Water street,and aU'scrt* of traps, wagons, merchant! be
and plunder was speedily hauled up tho term to save it from
the encroaching wave. This rise was almost all from the
Monungahela. Lott night, however, the Allegheny, which
had been backed up all day, began to take tbe bit in *hi-r
teeth and to run out terribly. Two big rafts that had stood
tbe racket prvliy well through tho daybroke louse and came
crashing down against the pier* of the bridges, hnt did nut
gn.tu place*. The people along tho lower bank w ro collect
