UjuoN Movement.—The committees appoint
ed respectively by the Springfield M. V. Con
ventiori rthd the General Conference of tbo Wes
leyan Methodists, for the promotion of the
union of tho two bodies, held a conference in
the first M. P. church, Fifth street, on tho 18th
and 19th instants. The meeting was marked
by great Christian courtesy, and was harmooions
as to tho object of union. After mature delib
eration, Lbo committees, in joint meeting, re
commended a more intimate anidn and co-oper
ation nu being the better way, at present, to
lead to a final union.
It waa agreed to recommend that, should tho
union bo consummated, it should bo known by
the namo of “The Methodist Protestant Church."
The committco representing tho Woslfeyan
body sol forth the following changes as probably
necessary to a permanent ecclesiastical unioo:
h That the restrictive itinerant rule be so
modified as to ■give larger liberty to pastors and
people.
—. That the order of Deacons be abolished, if
it can bo safely done.
d. That tho old rale on slavery should be re
stored to its place in tho “General Ilules ”
The committee representing the Methodist
Protestant Church presented the following /or
consideration:
1. They were not authorized to consent to any
measure contemplating a change in tho general
economy of tho M. P. Church.
2. That tho article in the Wesleyan Methodist
Discipline on “secret oath-bound societies’’ was
/objectionable to the M. P. Church.
3. That the Methodist P. Church never ac
knowledged tho right of tho General Conference
to legislate upon questions of morals or faith:
and it was not likely they would qver consent to
a change in this respect.
Tbo abovo subjects were considered in joiot
committee only in a conversational way, and
finally referred to the •fitTerent annual- confer
ences of the two connections.
Whether any further steps Will be taken to
wards a union will depend upon the doings of
the succeeding conferences of the two denomi
nations.
Pb. Boynton’s Cotmss or Lectures. —We are
able to annonneo to our readers this morning
that the first lecture of this coarse wilt be given
on Friday evening, 4th March, in City Hall, We
congratulate this community npou this opportu
nity of instruction and entertainment. Tne dis
tinguished reputation of Dr Boynton as a public
lecturer on Gcoolgy, the large and beantifnl oil
paintings which he has had prepared to eluci
date his subject, bis enthusiasm, promptness,
clearness, grace, perspicuity and huraor,..are
guarantees that he will crowded and nightly
increasing audiences.
The St. Louis Democrat says of his course in
that city :—“With thousands we bare listened
for hoars, with almost breathless interest, to the
geoligioal prose poems of Dr. Boynton, which
he announces os lectures! He is a master of
the art unteachable and untaught! fie conducts
his hearers to the land of Knowledge through
the morning goto of beauty. The r old reptiles
grow lovely, as he points them ont upon that
magnificent canvas. Ho has borne'off the palm
as tbo modol scientific lecturer of the day.’’
The sccomPfeclure of the course will be de
livered on Monday next, March 7th.
Tbo subject of the first lecture is Mechanical
Astronomy, in which will be illustrated by ex
periments in Natural Philosophy, the laws which
govern the formation, form, motion and situation
of tho heavenly bodies.
The second lecluro will be upon tho ingenious
condition of the interior of iho Earth, causes of
Volcanoes, Earthquakes, and the elevation of
Continents and 'lslands.

tEcre nre about I*2o snob names as O'Rourke,
O’Raffcrtj. McGuire, McShane, etc. There are
some 40 German names, and (be residue are,
in a groat measure, divided between Rnglish,
Italians, French, Polish, anil other European
nations. The American portion, as far as we
are able to ascertain. Is very limited
1h the ease of Allegheny County vs. Rowland,
which was before the Common Pleas Court last
week. Judge McClure delivered an opinion on
Monday, dismissing the case, on the ground of
want of jurisdiction and invalidity of the eyi
‘deoce offered by jilaintiff. ilia Honor decided
that the Report of the Board of Auditors of 1856
could not be overhauled or reviewed by any
subsequent Board. At the request of counsel
for defendant, the jury, under instruction of the
Court, delivered a verdict for defendant.
A Serious Curroi. —Mr. Edward Crawford
made an information before Aid. Wilson charg
ing John Statlcr with assault and battery upon
a i&d Darned Thomas Carpenter. The parties
work in MeClintot-k’s keg factory, Mcohonlo
street, and it Is alleged that Sutler, from eomo
cause, fastened the boy in a furnace, where be
would have suffocated had not the other work
men interposed. Sutler wan held for further
bearing. j
A Mbah Titter, on Sunday morning, entered
a little confectionery shop on Third street, kept
by an old woman named Qiggephotbam, (while
she was absent at church,) and Stole about $l4,

had appropriated to pay her rent this week.

Tits Young. Meti’ft Christian Association, re
cently organized in South Pittsburgh, has met
with considerable encouragement. They pro
pose establishing a library, nnd for the purpose
of raising funds to make a start, have engaged
‘Professor Robert Kidd, the elocutionist, to de
liver » lecture before them, in Lafayette Hall,
about the Ist of April, on his return from ft
Western tour.
' Attempted Suicide.—A young man named
Ferguson, whoso parents resldo on Pena street,
attempted to commit suicide, on Saturday night,
at the Merchants’ Hotel, by taking laudanum.
An antidote was administered by Dr. Christy,
and tho patient is now out of danger. The canse

WAsnmeTqw Cirr, Feb 27.—The'community was
thrown Into an Intense excitement to-day, by the
killing of Barton Key, United States District
Attorney, for the District of Colombia, at the hands
of Eton. Daniel E. Sickles, member of Congress,
from the third district of New York." According to
the report, Mr. Sickles becoming convinced of the
troth of certain seasdalotu rumors involving Us wife,
resolved to redress these wrongs about 2 o'clock this
afternoon, Proceeding from his residence near the
President’s house, to tho southeast comer of Lafay
ette square, in tlio some neighborhood where Key
was engaged in conversation with Mr. Butterworib,
of Now York, be charged Key with having dishonor
ed him and destroyed his domesiio peace, and imme
diately shot him with’&'rovblver, one of tho balls
onterlog the left sido of the bojdy and passing through
the corresponding point: on tke opposite aide, lodging
under tho skin. Another shot took efiebt in the right
thigh near the main artdry. Key, on falling, Implor
ed Sickles not to kill him. Tbo third shot took effect
in the right side, glancing from the body and brais
ing it, and from Lbo effects of which wounds death
ensued in a few mioutes.
Tho body was taken into the National Club nouso.
The coroner immediately summoned a jury, and tbo
Inquost was continued for Govern! hours. A verdict
was rendered merely stating that the death was caus
ed from tho effects of pistol shots, a abovo stated,
fired by Hon. D. E. Sickles. Crovds. of persons
gathered in the vicinity of the Olub House daring
the day, anxiously inquiring Into a 1 the circum
stances of tbo event Aflef Mr. Sid les had killed
Key, he repaired to the residence of A toruoy General
Black, whore bo was advised to doliv :r himself into
the hands of the officers, who subacqumtly conveyed
him to jail, to which be was commit ed - for farther
examination to-morrow. The facts v bich led to the
tragody will then, probably, judicially transpire. The
inquisition of the coroner was merely with reference
to the causes which produced the dea* h.
pQiLADEurma, Feb. 28j.—The W ishington cor
respondent of the Timos gives the fol owing account
of tho domestic difficulties bf Mr. Sit klos, which led
to the killing of Key: Ooj Friday, J Ir.
ceived an anonymous lotter, (stating with precision
so minute as to make suspicion imperative, that Mr.
Key hod rented a bouse on! Fifteenth street, aboveK
street, from a negro woman, and that ho was in the
habit of mooting Mrs. Sickles there two or three
times a week,'or oftenor. | The person and'dress of
Mrs. Bickles were accurately described, and the Usual
lime pf the interview specified. Accompanied by a
friend, Mr. S. wont to the house designated and found
every statement of the anonymous writer corrobo
rated. Mr. Key had taken the honse, and had con
stantly met tnere a lady answering very closely the
description oif Mrs. Sicklet Mr. bickles still clung
to the hope mat the pereon who had stooped to the
baseness of making such charges under the veil of
sesrei7, had thoroughly deceived him and that Mrs.
S. was not the lady in question. lie accordingly re
quested his friend, George Wooldridge, of New York,
to watch the place from tb4 window of a.bouse just
opposite. On Satuhlay nolmoeting took place, and
tbo woman in chaive seemd to have stated that none
had occurred sinco Wednesday. On Saturday even
ing, Mr. Sickles resolved njo longer to play tho'spy
upon bis honor, determiejed to confront his wife
with his terrible At first Mrs. Sickles
strongly deeded her guilt, but on her husband's ask
ing her wbetper on the Wednesday previous she had
not entered! the house on Fifteenth street in a cer
tain particular dress, and concealed by a hood, she
cried oat "I am betrayed and lost!” and swooned
away. On recovering bar senses, she admitted her
guilt and' besought mercy and pardon. Mr. Sickles
calmly said be would not Injure her, since ho believed
her the vknlm of. a scoundrel, but that he had a
right to a full confession. Two ladies in the honse
were sent fir as witnesses, and in their presence
Mrs. Sickles!mado a fall confession In writing, stat
ing that her connections with Mr. Key baa com
menced in AjprUlast nnderjMr. Sickles’ roof, but that
Mr. Koy bad sinoe hired the honse in Fifteenth
street, in which they bid constantly met. Mrs.
Sickles’ confession was made in tbo midst of the
bitterest contrition and misery. Her husband simply
asked her to give him baok her wedding ring, and
desired her to write to her mother lo eome and take
her from his house forever. Mrs. Bickles made no
objections, admitting the justice of ner punishment
in the most affecting language. The Hon. Robt. J.
Walker and Messrs. Carlisle and Ri tcllffe have been
retained as ! Ir. Sickles’ counsel.
Appllcati* n will be made by Mr. I dckles for a writ
of habeae c6rpnt with a view to pi >curo his release
on boll to await bU trial. His wifo exonerated him
from all blame, and be has the goneral sympathy of
tbe community.
In tho Circuit Court this morning, .Mr. Carlisle
announced tbe death of Phillip Barton Key, late
District Attorney for the District of Columbia.—
While eulogizing tbo deceased os a courteous, Trunk
open-boartod gentlemen, be forbore to speak of the
cause which tai to his death, as that was a subject
for judicial investigation.
Tbe Court pud a similar compliment to tbe deceas
ed. and, in token of respect, adjourned till Thursday.
Feb. 28.— Evening. —The ex
amination In relation to the killing of Philip Barton
Koy, did not toko place o-day as anticipated. Mr.
Sickles has retained, is counsel, Mr. Staoton, of
Pittsburgh, Cbillon Ilatieliffo and, report says, oth

their child shall remain with her mother, who was
yesterday telegraphed fir and is oxpocted to arrive
here to-nigbt. The jail was to-day visited by many
of Mr. Sickles' friends.
Numerous reports are afloat concerning all tbe
