The Old School Uviirrnl Ahwci??1?1.v Hi Hi. l,otil?. Forum Day? Mommy, May 21, 1^(1(1. Tlio cam' of the l.ouisv ilk' Presbytery was again brought up. Tin* question really con< crns t )t?- whole Im.tii Presbyterian ehurch. inasmuch a* there ran l?c no union between the northern ami southern so long as ]?olitical tests arc in tin- won. llto Louisville Presbytery has done nothing more than to refuse to make these political tests within its jurisdiction. On Monday, Rev. Or. Van Dyke attempted to bring the (icucral Assembly to ,i sense of the false position it had assumed by ofb t i ng tin* following paper : *1 his \ssembly earnestly deprecate* the continuance of the division now existing i*. 'tween the Presbyterian churches in the northern ami southern States, together with t lie strife among ourselves, growing , out ot this di\ isiou, as a ruinous and unne- , ( i ssavy schism between brethren who maintain a eommoii faith, tending to pcrpetuate the evil passions generated by civil w.?r; to prevent the icturnot' the harmony and good will so essential to the prosperity o| both church and State, and to dissipate, in futile contentions, the resources and moral influence which the church ought to < < mp!o\ in common efforts for the defence and proj?agation of the (lospel. In tin* spirit of' reconciliation and bro. j therly kindness, this Assembly desires the restoration of I lit- unity of the church on 1 t! e basis o}' the principles upon which she was originally organized, and upon w hich, under the Divine blessing, she so long and so abundant ly prospered. Among these principles we regard the f< llow iag as fundamental : I. 4* (iod alone is l.ord of the conscience, and hath left it free from the doctrines and commandments of men, which are in anything contrary to His word, or beside i it in matters of taithaml worship." ? { Form <?1 ( JoV. 1 . 1 .J J.

Whatever may he their virtue as a part of the past history of i lie church, and a.s an embodiment of the opinions of the venerable assemblies from w li i? - 1 1 they emanated, these deliverances j form no part of our standards of truth ami | order, and their adoption cannot be lawfully insisted on as a term of church membership or of ministerial communion. After .some unimportant discussion, this paper was referred to the Committee on Hills and ( )vertures. A long paper was then submitted from j the representatives of the Louisville Pres. ; i?\ tery, w hich com -ludes as follows : \\ itli profound respect for the Assembly :is the highest court of the church, and with unfeigned sorrow that we are constrained, in fidelity to our trust, thus to speak, we feel it our duty to say to the As. 1 semhly that ? regarding this action as of the nature of a judgment upon the Presbytery and its commissioners, and this judgment a sentence of exclusion without trial or a hearing in any form in explanation or defence ; regarding this act ion as not only unjust, injurious ami cruel, but as subversive j of the foundations of all justice,' "destruc- i tiveof the const it ution of the church, and revolutionary in its nature; regarding it as setting a precedent for the exercise of a I partisan power in the courts of Christ's i Kingdom, which leaves all the rights and immunities of his people at the mercy of any faction that may casually be in the ascendancy ? we should be untrue to the ' Presbytery whose commission we bear, faithless to the cause ot truth and Christian freedom, false to our Lord and King, should we silently acquiesce in such procc- 1 dure or in any way recognize its legality. W e must regard this action in its effect, so J far as relates to us as commissioners, and to this present Assembly, as final in the case. N it h these views and convictions there is but one course left open to us, namely : To take our appeal at once upon the issue as it has been made for us and forced upon ( us, from this General Assembly to the i Presbytery of Louisville in particular, in i so far as it concerns ourselves and that body, and to the whole church in so far as it is an issue involving the great principles of her constitution ; and, indeed, her continued existence as a free Christian commonwealth in the enjoyment of the franchises am! immunities conferred upon her by her adorable Ile ul. Me therefore respectfully inform tflej Assembly that we shall not attend further upon its sessions. SllABT Pont N. SON, Sauvkl K. Wilson, | Mauk Hardin, ... . C. A. W ICKLIPFfi. ' f* Mo., May i'J, 18G6. Hcv. Dr. Jioardman then took the floor J and made a telling speech. We give two biief extracts to show its spirit. Such men are an honor to any church, and should be with the southern Presbyterians. Dr. Boardman said : X have intimated at least that J Lavo no ! i sympathy witii the view, u^t have been I * |

attributed 1<> some these Louisville brethren ; but, sir, I have mhhc sympathy, 1 trust, with righteousness and truth and justice' and Christian charity ; I hare nome sympathy with the right ? of any roan who bears the form of a man, and who carries au immortal spirit in hi* Imaotn, and I will not sit here willingly, I will not sit here quietly, and see any man oppressed, though he he the bitterest secession si st in the land. If he is t ? ? be arraigned and condemned and beheaded, it shall be? done in so far as my voice and my humble influence can accomplish anything ? -it shall be done uuder the constitution and laws of the church. We live, sir, under a government of law. We are not at liberty to take counsel ol ?>ur feelings or our passions. \\ e are not at liberty to go '"r u,,r 'aw* ,u precedents to public, judicial or legislativenssemblies. We are not at liberty to open our bosoms to all the gales of human passions that may meet and concentrate here. No, sir, we are bound by that b<?ok: ami it it were not my deliberate conviction that the teachings of that book had been infringed upon, I would not trouble you with the remarks that 1 am now making. Sirs, on Saturday last I was driving out through the suburbs of this city. It is a beautiful spread of country that reaches far and wide, and as you go out over t increst of the hill, a scene of surpassing j beauty and tranquillity presents itself. On Saturday last I was driving out with a gentleman of this city, a man loyal to his heart's core, a man whose name is never mentioned in St. Louis by any man, of j whatever party, or profession, or occupation, but with honor and reverence. ]!?? said to me, what is the reason that the sol- j dicrs ? the men who did the fighting? not the holiday soldiers, but the men who <lid the lighting ? are ready t<> exercise forbearance and forgiveness and peace, while the ministers seem to be in favor ol war. Sir, said 1, you have propounded a problem to me which I cannot solve. I know the | fact, for I have had personal experience of it. j And here again in one of these hospitals during the war. [I see your hour has ex- . pired, and I will not trespass. Just give me one minute or two, and 1 think 1 can 1 release you.) In one of these hospitals were two soldiers, lhcy were very badly wounded. Those ministering spirits? those blessed Christian women ? were in the hospital visiting them. 1 think it was in the j strawberrv season ; and under the direction of the physician of the establishment ?mc of them was required to go about and mark the couches with chalk ; and all the ? nit ii who could have any strawberries, and were in that condition that the fruit would injure them, had their couches marked. Well, there were two poor fellows lying I *.i.le by side. One bed was marked, and j the other was not. A lady came along ! presently: "Well," said she to one of! them, 44 this poor !??! 1? ?w would like some strawberries, I suppose ?*' She wa* bearing them with her. "No : the doctor j says they will hurt him; he can't live; he is going to die soon. The doctor says strawberries will only hasten 1 his death, and ho can't have them. She handed the basket of strawberries to his fellow. She had got but a little way off, j however, and what do you think she saw ? Why, she saw the man with the straw-1 berries, a Union soldier, getting himself out of his coitch, and w it h his crutch he was limping his way over to his fellow's bed, and there he stood resting on bis crutch and putting the strawberries into his comrade's mouth. "Why," said she, "yon are Union men, 1 suppose, both of yon.'" ?? >'o, madam," said he; "day before yesterday this man and I fought against each other) but we are brothers now." " We are brothers now." O, brethren, can't vou see that ? We have fought these men, and we will light them in time ot war. e are here in a State that honors the name oi Thomas .lelferson, but you ministers do not honor it much. \ ou never go to Thomas Jefferson t?>r your ethics, 1 am sure, or to that immortal document ? that which came from his pen, and which is an heir-loom in every American habitation, and which every American boy eommits to memory substantially, and w hich is recited every year in your National Legis. laturc. In that immortal document which came from his pen, he said, referring to Great Britain and to the King of England and to his people, "we must regard them as we regard all other nations ; as enemies in war; in peace, friends." \\ by, brethren, is it war or is it peace ! Shall they who not only profess to sit at the feet ot the meek and lowly Saviour; shall they whose professed voice and whose hcrcditai y I unction it is to preach the gospel of peace, to preach forgiveness and torbearanee and universal charity ? shall we set out hands to the atrocious doctrine that any class or condition of men in any land shall be regarded bv iis enemies not only in war, but even in peace ? God forbid ! God forbid ! St. Louis, May 23. ? In the Old School Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, to-day, the protest of I>r. Van Dyke against the action of the Assembly in regard to the exclusion of the Louisville commissioners was ordered recorded, and a committee, with Dr. West as chairman, was appointed to report an answer in regard to it. ^ The report of the Committee on Foreign Missions shows that the Board has fortysix missions in different countries ; that the receipts for the year were $207,000; that the expenditures were ?210,000; that half the churches of the denomination failed to contribute any support, and that the board is now in want of both money

and men. Htm. Samuel Galloway, of Ohio, spent most of the remainder of the day in reply to Dr. Boardman's speech of yesterday, taking strong grounds against the conduct of the Louisville Presbytery, and dealing trenchant blows against disloyalty in the church and out of it. Nothing of special importance occurred in the session of the New School Assembly to-day. Negro Testimony.- In the Circuit Court, Judge H. W. Thomas, yesterday, when the case of the Commonwealth vs. Roe, a white man, charged with felony, was being tried, W. Willoughby, Commonwealth's attorney, asked that he might be permitted to introduce negro witnesses to testify in the case, claiming the right to do so under the provisions of the "Civil Rights bill." The Judge declined permission, on the ground that this was a State court, and that he was acting under the laws of the State, which forbade that a negro should testify in a case against a white man, except "when the case arises out of an injury done, attempted, or threatened, to the person, property, or rights of a colored person or Indian, or when the offence was committed by a white person in conjunction with a colored person or Indian." The Judge stated his determination to execute the laws of his State until ordered to do otherwise. -Alexandria Gazette, 24th. Washington Colkeuk. ?

The teat thns applied to tin* <t rneture was a sufficiently severe one, and the result entirely satisfactory. A- much has b? cn said, and descriptions not always accurate have been I'rom time to time given, we take this occasion to s.iy that the bridge is a simple Howe s truss of liberal proportions, packed and fitted with iron keys, bolts, ami an^le blocks, all of unusual strength. Tiio timber i> white pine, of excellent ?jtMility. The bridge was originally planned by Mr. E. 11. Gill. It was erected under flu* supervision of Mr. K. T. D. Myers.

Several other witnesses appeared, but ! no new faets were elicited.

I Ishman Kohertson and William Byrd j were charged with attacking and cutting a soldier with a knife, in a negro dance- ; house, on Wednesday night. From the evidence it appeared that the soldier was attached in tlie negro dunce-house, whilst looking for a deserter, by a large party of negroes. lie was knocked down by one, whom he recognized as Ishman Kohertson, and cut with a knife by William Byrd. Evidence was introduced to show that the soldier had cut his hand with a pane of | glass in the door, which he knocked 1 through with his tist ; but the cut on his j hand showed that it was done with a knife. T I icy were remanded for further examination before the Huntings Court.

Several policemen appeared and testified that the negro was not kicked down the steps, but that he was drunk, and upon being told to go away by Policeman " iJwyer. returned a very insolent replv, whereupon he was taken to the door and shoved down the steps. The case was | continued until to-day. Charles Wade, negro, was arraigned on charge of passing counterfeit coin. He was examined some months ago bv Mavor Saunders and sent on to the Grand Jury for felony. The Grand Jury, upon an examination of his case, sent him back to the Mayor for another trial. Upon the consideration that lie was a strange negro : in this country? being from the West Indies ? and not familiar with American coin, he was discharged. SoMKTinxf} "New Uxukr Tift: Srs." ? A lady entered a shoe-store on Main street j a day or so since to purchase a pair of ! shoes. Three pair were handed her, and she sat down at a place near the end of the counter, somewhat sheltered front observation, to.itry the shoes on her delicate foot. Having fitted a pair, the clerk sought the remaining pairs, but found only one. He looked about rapidly, and was much perplexed what to do, not liking to say anything to the lady lest she might regard it as an accusation. In looking about before he settled with his fair customer, he j espied a string on the floor, one end of which was concealed under the lady's dress. It looked very much like the braid used in tyiug the shoes handed to her. lie stepped from behind the counter and took hold of said string. He gave it a pull and found it fast? he had a bite. Knowing now that at the other end of the , string must be the missing shoes, he suggested to the fair one that he missed a pair of shoes, ami possibly tliey might l?e entangled in her skirts. Her damask cheek Hushed with indignation as she denied that j there were any shoes about her underdress. The clerk perseveringly holding on j to the string, begged her to examine, assuring her that he should not let go the string, and that if she did not examine he ' should be compelled to do so himself. She as persistently refused, whereupon ? angels and ministers of grace defend us!? he deliberately "tilted" the skirt and found the shoes tied to the 44 elliptic " by the ' string being wound around the wires J Her J indignant blush melted into shame, and she begged not to be exposed. "Fear not, madam, go and sin no more." He is a good fellow, but he hung on to the string like grim death. Stealing is not new, but this exact kind of stealing and hiding is something new under the sun. AJl you shoe -dealers beware of this new way of whipping of your property, and watch , closely lest your shoes get above their business. Card of Tuaxks.?

F.un for St. Mark'8 Cim'Rch. ? wn .nunday night the ladies of St. Mark's Church will open their Fa i r at the corner of Eighth and Main .street*. At this late season it is very difficult to find anything novel or original in a fair-room: hut we ran promise oureitizpn* that they will see at St. Mark's Fair some attractive features that have not been noticed at any. Among the great attractions will Ik.' the 44 Jacob's Well," filled, not with water, but with deliciously cool lemonade, whicb will be drawn tip in a bucket and dispensed to the coiners by one of the most charming or the young ladies of this < ity. In addition to this, there will be 44 Washington's Chair,*' described already in the Dls patch, in which visitors to the Fair will be permitted to sit npon payment of a small fee. Of course the tables are tastefully and prettily decorated, and crowded with articles of use and ornament; and it our charitable people will only give their patronage to the Fair of St. Mark's Church ? which needs assistance more, perhaps, than its larger neighbors ? they will have the consolation of knowing that they have made a success of a work undertaken for a most deserving object. A V ntoTNiA PiLf.. ? At last we have a Virginia patent medicine ? a pill ? to cure some and prevent a great many diseases. Knowing so well the sincere and unpretending character of our people, we hx>k upon even a pill invented amongst them us a genuine affair ? oik* in which the manufacturer certainly implicitly believes. We therefore do not hesitate to invite the public attention to 44 Dr. T. Rcnnolds'scclehrated Virginia Hepatic and Purgative Pill." Dr. Rennolds was a skilful practitioner of medicine in Staunton, and employed this pill in his practice. It has received the most unqualified approval of the most respectable citizens of that town. The Doctor died in 18fi4. lie left the formula of his medicine to his brother, in Louisa county. This pill is recommended for all liver and biliary diseases and the numerous affections growing out of them. See advertisement. The Conveti r wn Readino announced by Messrs. Wheat and De Leon will take piaee at the Virginia Hall at 8 o'clock tonight. Mr. De Li on is well known as the editor of Sjut/t and has already lectured in this city, while Mr. Wheat brings with him a high reputation as a pianist of brilliant execution, and chaste and pure expression. The programme is an attractive one, and should draw a good audience. Thanks for I'apkrp. ? To Mr. L. L. Smith, news dealer, 121 Broad street ; to Mr. J. (). Walker, mail agent running northward ; t<?

To the People or the South. " The Ladies' Memorial Association for Confederate D>ad of Oak wood,' ' near Richmond, Yirgiilia, ws? organized i>erinanently on tlie l!>th April, l-sti, for the purpose of reaming from oblivion the names and graves of the gallant Confederate dead , who sleep at Oakwood Cemetery. This Cemetery, situated one mile east of the city, contains sixteen thousand Confederate eddies' Knives, a larger number than any other in the t south, including representative dead fruiu every I southern State. The graves are in a neglected condition, the j names of the occupants marked only by rude pi'-ces of board carelessly and slightly put iu the -jarth. The grounds are desolate and unenclosed. The Common Connc'l of the city of Hichinond j has undertaken the work of enclosing the cemetery, and h.ts made the requisite appropriation lor I that purpose. j The work of love, gratitude, and duty which this Association proposes for itself is simply this . First. To turf each grave and mark it with a neat wooden head-board, upon which is to be inscribed i the name of the occupant, his State, regiment, and | cempany, and other information in regard to hiin. ! Secondly. To layout and decorate the grounds, and to redeem them from their present condition of utter cheeriessnes." and desolation. Ami Thirdly. At some fnture day, wheu the finances of the Association shall permit it, to replace the wooden head boards with enduring marble, and to ! erect a handsome monument for each State of the , south, commemorating it* dead. To etfect these purposes it is n? ces?ary to appeal 1 to the people of the south for pecuniary assistance. I The Association is poor, the people of Kichuiond ! it re poor, and the work to he done is for the honor , and credit of the entire south. It would be an indelllblo shame and an ever-present disgrace if, having the power to honor our dead, to perpetuate , their names and memories, and to preserve and protect their graves, our people should suffer them 'to lie neglected and forgotten until the frail re- ; cords of their name?, death, and burial-place* are | totally destroyed by decay, aud the task rendered I impossible. How many families throughout the ! sonth have representatives sleeping at Oakwood | Ceuietery ! How many mothers, aud sMers, and I father.-, and brothers, aiul friend", would be soothed aud gratilied to know that their brave dead were ; honored, and their graves cared for aud tended? i Who would uot be shocked and pained to witne** the present lamentable condition of these graves, and to see how rapidly tlie Land of Time t* obUj tenting all traces and memorials Of the gallant j do ad who died for u.s t Could the people uf the south look upon the lonely, desolate, and neglected gravis, no appeal would be necessary. The sklent rebuke of these forgotten heroes would ruacb the heart* and eonsciences ol every Christian man and womau of the j f south. I This Association is uot to r a day or a year ; it Is j uot the ua?iui tauay ol an hour, or the ephemeral | creature of a ujom?niary impuls* , it is perua- , uentlr organised, with already two handred and fifty active member.. It will know no re* until ils . purposes aie successfully and lully achieved. U will uot fail, itcannct fail, it should not fall, until the manhood of th< fouth ha? lost its chivalry, and I until tts women have c-aaetl to mourn tor their children l>scau?e " they are not." In thi? work of piety and care the Association Hoietnnly pledges its honor to the people of the | south to apply faithfully and economically the I funds which uiay be contributed. Editors friendly to the purpose of this Association will confer a favor by copying iatutfeeirpa* pert this appeal. , . j Contribution* are urgently solicited. They may be sen' to the Kev.
