The utmost good fe-ling- prevailed amongst the varioii-ofli ■ ials; all seeming to labor fur the same com nioii end ; but, of course, a diversity of opinions, as to the best means of attaining that, end, was to be lmind in this, as in every other body Everything passed off pleasantly however, we look fuiward with pleasure to their tiiei ting iu ISepteinber.

The text was selected from Hebrews fill, chapto-, 17th and IHth verses: ‘ vVhtroupon, God, willing more abundantly to ah,-tv unto the heirs of promise, the iiuintitibility ,4 i>is oouusel, confirmed it by an oath." “That by two immutable things, in wbi h it was impossible for Qod to lie, we might have a str u ng consolation, who have fled for refuge to iay hold upon lire hope set before us."

KJitors : At tlio late Deacons mee tiug, held at Duhart'a, creek Churcl, a prominent and taleuted minister of the Baptist Churcl, iu au e.lay, which he read, was very emphatic iu his opposition to Union Sunday Schools. Now. while we agree with him, that each Denomination should hive its own School wherever it is practicable, we think it cau he easily shown, that there are commu nities m which this caunoi be dune, and tor such c immunities a Union School i- un absolute uocessi'y. But among tho objection* to Union Subbath School", urged by the gentleman, was one w hich Jorn great injustice to the Suudav School L’niou, and thut ia “while other Denominations can find their doctrine iu Uuiou Book", th* Bap ■i»t c.auno'," we do not propose to quote the gentleman literally hut give what he wav on derxtood to sa . The charge, as we understand t, is this, “that while there is Presby tuian, Methodist, Episcopal, Lutheiau,Dutch Reform od Ac, sectarlulsm iu the Uuiou Books, there is no Baptist sectarianism at ail." lias the g u tknian ever carefully examined these Books? He surely has uot, or he uever could have made the charge. We have taught from them for year., have studird some of them thorough y, aud do uot consider them as teaching any sec tarianism whatever. Wc do not wish to do the gentleman injustice, he doubtless believes wbat he wrote; but wc apprehend that if he examines closely, he will find that his objection to the Union Books, is not that they teach the sectarianism of other denomination., which we deny, but that thi y do uot teach that of his own church. Cau the gentleman sa that the fundamental truths of Christianity, as understood by Prot estants, are uot Baptist doctrines? all these are taught in the Uuiou question books ! With your permission Itr Editor, we willsay a good word iu favor of Union Sabbath Schools ucitntfcwr. I-UTUER.

His first wife killed herself34years ago; nine years afier.his second spouserauaway from him,and died of destitution in I.lines; six years later his third consort was drowned. In 1868 his fourth helpmate was killed, and he, having been con victed ot the-murder, was seut to prison for life, but pardoned out. Iu another decade the fifth partuer of his bosom mysteriously disappeared ; and very recently the sixth wedded idol of his soul sougnt petce and oblivion by hanging her self to a bedpost The accumulation of years and i iprrieuce having made Francis a philoso pher, ho beat s hht connubial bereavements with lorfitude aud resignation.

George Siapletun President of Ihe Board of Trustees of Stapleton Academy, cor dially offered, on the part of that Board, the free use of their Academy, fur a public scuook The offer was thankfully accepted. The Secretary reported that N the Trustees in mail the Districts, save one.had reported to him the nuiAber of school children, white aud black, iu their Districts. The number foots up about five thousand; but as the rep rt of oue District had been mislaid, the camel number could not be stated.

Committee at Washington, has been unear.hed atlast. The Selma Times found him first, and, according lo the Times, here he is: We knew a privni < in the confederate army by the name ofTaliafeiro, who hailed then from Baltimore, who was a camp follower and skill ker. aud who helpd to murder five Yankee pris oners near Madison, Georgia, in November. 1804. and we would net be surpii. ed if thisfel low was the very man For his sworn statements totheOutrage Committee are just, in conso nance with the head aud heart of a man who would cowardly take to tho woods, tied, five prisoners who had surrendered themselves, and put s pistil to their heads and m r ered them. Only such a man could so wilfu.ly misrep-re seut his people. If you have a sick friend, just insist upon the physicians using Darby’s Prophylactic Fluid in his jooui.

Rarely has the name ol a greater fool graced the newspaper columns than in the case of the Rev. Isaac ti. Harpley, ol Pnilatlelpliia. This idi otic divine, we are lold, on ihe occa sion of the removal of the old steps in Iront of Independence Hall, procur ed one of the original bricks imme diately adjacent, incased it in a high ly fiinished walnut box, and sent it to AI. Thiers. The btick, we are fur ther informed, was accompanied with a gracefully worded letter, w herein Mr. Harpley expressed his sympa thies with Republicanism, and hoped that M. Thiers would be able to frame such a one in France a9 might be a model for other countries ami ages. And what does Alt. Harpley imag ine M. Thiers will do with the brick, which is only a dirty old brick after all ? Nothing short of the pettiest eg otism aud contemptible thirst tor no toriety could have prompted an a :i so silly. The w hole expense of (he transaction, which doubtless Mr. Harpley calculated iu advance, w is about four dollars and a half, and for just that a riounlof patriotic fervor should receive credit. If the Itev. Me. Harpley is “a specimen brick” of PhiLidelpia imbecility, ii is high time the liiol killer W is sent f>r aud honored with the freedom of the city.
