Dr. Baird, from the committee of lund overture*, made a report in re- to Overture No. 13, from the Synod Mississippi requesting tho Assembly to u«t tho uiMiter of conflicting bounda- between that Synod and the Synod of .bums arising out'of the terms of union the United Synod.

ThtfCommittoo recommend that the in be wrui lint* be answered ns follows: ‘ “Whether every church session has right lq make it a rule, that dancing „ older amusements are disciplinary ?” Afiswcr—No church judicatory has a ght to ntako any now rules of chujrch swLcr.btp Jiflurunt from those contain er) the constitution; but it is the un* mbled right of the church session, and every other judicatory, to make a de ference, offering its sense of what is "an fens**” in the meaning of the Book ol tocipline, chap. 1, sec. 2 “Whether such rules commonly ox lin Presbyterian Churches?" - Answer—Probably none of our judica 1,tint ire K 4 faithful as they ought to bo it it is believed that the churches gener By do in sumo form discountenance dan og.

All communications addressed to the Fenian prisoners were, opened and read before they were delivered, and also all letters written by them to their friends aiul acquaintance*. At 10 o’clock, last night, when the warders made their last round-, James Stephens was safely con fined in bis cell, and the keys were duly PJed over to the governor, who had them deposited in their proper order in tho case in his office, pr6vitffed for that purpose. The watchman, for the night was Dennis Byrne, who wont on duty at 10 o'clock, when, as wo have already slated, Stephens was secure in his coll, and nothing appeared to disturb the ordinary night routine of tho prison until 3^ o’clock this morning, when the watchman, Den nis By rue, gave the alarm that he hflddis covered two tables, placed ono above tho other, near tho south western wall, adjoin ing the, goMrfioFfi gardbtf.. HLr. TMlpots, the deputy-governor, and Mangan, tho gate warder, wbnt qu'Ckly to the place and found the two tables in the position which Byrne described thorn to be.— These tablaab* Ibngvd to tbekhnitig-hall, and had tobrought a long distance, but stiaago thoro were no footprints on the upper table, which should have been the case had it been stood on bv any per soti 1 #h6 had walked thrtnrgn thd opet passages, which weto .ltd* and muddy; torrents of rain were fulling, and the night was most dark and torffpostuous, and was favorable for tho accomplishment of a daring adventure, such ns an escape from a prison, particularly as noises that would be distinctly beard in a calm night would not be perceived in the storm and rain at the lime James Stephens was regaining his liberty. The alarm* was soon mado gene ral through the prison, and tho governor and All tho officials' were soon at their re- ogtK, and special, meeson had heard. When she was had, fief apparent joy was very groat, ahd fhe lii?V|4d Imdk to town. If the means foi< fitting feSephens out of thocoonlry bo well conceived and executed as the ans for releasing him from prison, in all probability he is now out of reach of dan ger, as lour hours had passed over irom the timo of his escape to the time the alarm was given, and a mqch longer time before active treasures were taken /or his i-capture. There is a rumor in Dublin that ho had succeeded in teaching Paris. Prom tho Dolhi Gaxette. It appears that a certain chief who boldfe sway in the State of Bhatwa, in the Katty- war territory, and who is named Khnmat* deen, or Kutnaloodeen, lately conceived a desire to add to tho live stock iu bis ha- For this purpose emissaries wore dispatched to Ahincdabad, whore lived an Englishman with his wife and children. " hey were a dissolute couple, by all ac counts, and of course had long rubbed skirts with,poverty. They had u daugh ter, named Anne, a girl of 14 years oi •go, and tho Bhatwa emissaries determin ed to make tho purents an tffor for their daughter* Tho fathbr agreed, in consid eration of 3,000 lupucs, to consign his daughter lor her life to the tender care of Kutnuloodoun. The bargain having been stiuck, tho contracting parties made tho host of tbeir way to Bhatwa, where tho money wus to be paid and the goods de livered. Arrived at their destination, this child of 14, the offspring of English pa rents, and a daughter of the Chrisliau Church, wiki handed over to her purchaser, and the dolicuta-minded parents became tho happy possessors of3,000 rupees (<£300.) At this stage of tho proceedings the chap lain of Kajeto culled upon the political spoclivo postH> and special messengers were sent in fiot^ Harto to give information to e police at the lie a jest stations, and at o ai the detective office. When the governor and his assis-l^uu, went to the section . tbo prison in Whfclr- Stephens had been confined, they found tbo doors of tho cor ridor open, uud also tho doors of his cell. Ills bed looked as if be bad not recently «|ppt in it, and as if ho had only roiled himself up in a railway rug, which was found on tho floor, and wailed for the timo that his deliverer was to arrive, A por tion of tbo clothes which ho wore on the morning of his arrest he left after him and he must have put on a suit of black, w|iioh ho had roudf iifegy day»i before! His books and papers wore iq the position they wore lust soon in by the waraors.— The searchers for the fugitive were not left long in doubt as to tho means by hich the many doors were opened, us two skeleton keys, quite bright, as if they uut, were foun ' had boon wnly recently muuw, wo.u »«ui the^cks-of Die two corridor dorrs, if thoy were too tight to bo pulled out b * “ ** * * led *ig*»t. the fugitives in their hUrri _ wh4 quite evident that Stephens was under the guidunco of a person who knew the prison wwii, as the direct route from ono extreme of tho prison to other was uccom plishod without a single blunder, or with out bulking at a lock or door,. A prisoner named M’Lood, who occupied tho cell noxtto lhnl in which (Stephens was con fined, gives moat important information which goes far lq show that tho escape of the Head Center was effected through the agency of a person insido the prison.

Sommos, bettor known as commatidor of tho Alabama, has struck thq people with astonishment and regret. It is impossible to form an opinion as to the reasons which influenced the authori ties in making the arrest. It is true that Sommer inflicted material damage on New England shipping, but certainly not any greater damage thun our Goneials inflict ed upon land, iio fought under a regu lar commission, with all the rights which properly attach to a belligerent, and did not avoid a fair battle in an opon sea. Like IL brave soldier, lie fought his ship until-ano wont down under him; arid then, like a true soldier, returned to his country to share her trials and misfor tunes. Throughout his whole career ho has ex hibited none but" tiro noblest qualities which belong to mankind; and if any man deserves tho mercy of a generous and powerful Government, that man is Ra phael J. SemmeS. If tho charge of piracy is brought against him by tho vindictive blood hounds of New England, there is not u true soldior of tho Federal army who would not denounce tho proceedings hr vio\u|iro* <>f evbry principle of military hbnofc Gnn. Grant was bold enough to urge the quashing of tho charge which Gen. Loo with tho Wire affair. associated ( Wo wo cbtifidvut that ho, and men like I. * him. will Insist upon respecting the sur render of General Leo, which embraced Gottimanddi Semmes, at Umt time a Brig.
