The studenta attending the Baptiat, Methodist, Congregational, and Pr_eabyterinn Ther{logics-l Seminaries, in Chicago, enjoyed s delightfal gociel and literary reunion in the chapel of the Congregational Seminary, last 'I'hm-sdag even- ing. The sattendance was large, indnd:mg. be- gides the students, others who were friends of the respective seminaries. 1t is the custom for $ho institution giving the recoption toassign the toasts'and designato tho parties responding on tho occasion. The sentiments offered during fhe evening wore as follows : **The communion of saints; mey it grow holier and closer ;" re- sponded to by Ar. Farnham, a Baptist student. # Religion and politics: may cach know more of the other;” response by Mr. Davis, of tho Methodist Seminary. * Ministera: unma'ted, wasted; ill-mated, weighted; well-mated, wing- ed;” respondod to by A. J. Van Wagner, of the Congregational Seminery. *The Church of tho ¢ature, our Church ;” reaponse by Robert Mac- TFenzie, of the Presbytorian Seminary, l:\'ho :lu: % ¢ “)Man mever is but slways o boblest,” isa .cfé‘.‘mz that has 8 responsive echoin tho Leart of Pach of us; and, no doubt, was the motive which in- uenced the brother which propounded this question fome, It is very ustural forus,ss we go sosring ‘down the stram of Time, in the twilight of the pres— oot, and, gozing thoughtfully back on the phosphor- it valc of memory, and ever moving switly into the darkress of tho fuiure, to destro to look long and far into that future. And, 2s it isnota dead wall that Stuts ue out from the mysterios of the morrow, but & waving curlain, which is ever entlcing us 1o gaze Through its suggestive texture, penctrated by thelight of tha past, the desire grows sirong within us, ‘sfzny questions of prime importance would spring Into vigorous life or die o fudden desth, if we conld bail the retarn of some Livingstone from the hidden iores of the coming years with light. But upon no Jucstion would:we, a8 the students, in especial, of the futare, bl light oregladly than upon the urch. Sfeny of our premises have their conclusions far in fhat foture, Many of our conclusions rest upon gremiscs which only the paesing away of many of its Sears will corrobarate. ¥ou have desired me to look Jato this future and tell you what I see respecting the Church. [Here tho speaker expreased his views at Jength.] Churches freofrom debts, pastors’ door- ‘bells iient until 2 p. m,, church members havinga duty to perform and tho will to do it, the Church growing deeper and wider in its influence, because it & Iaden with the truth and the truth is essentially ag- gressive. As to whowe name should be graven on {ho ble, he thonght it would not be Congregational or Methodiet, and knew 36 would not be Baptist. The Church is given for tho salvation of the world, but wo zead that onoe already the world has been Satroped y water, only one man and his houschold escaping the gancral destruction, and he_did not beliovo in immer- ‘aion. When tho covensnt wne made that the destruo- tion should mot be repested it was sealed by the sign but that is_seen only in compeny with sprinkling. The Church will ot be one in name, Unify of sympathy will increase Pt wi mot in. time grow into an sbeolute unity of thought and feeling, Harmony exists, and will in- czeaso. Once upon a time we stood by tho great guns ‘of our respective ehipe, looking at each other through. the port-holes, and saw cach other all begrime d with ‘e, our countensnces marred by our own fire.

Dr. Boardman, a_profossor in the Seminary, was called upon by tho Chairman, who gnvo a very appropriate and interesting address 83 the advantazes of o seminary education. Thio ladies of tho First Congregational Church provided a sup] for tho occasion, which was 2ot the least of the evening’s nttractions. The reunion closed with s meeting of .prayer, con- ducted by Professor Bartlott. SUNDAY READING-LOOM. Boston has at Iast opened its Public Library, consisting of 250,000 volumes, on Sunday. Every Funday afternoon, all who choose may svail themselves of the vast resources furnished by this unrivaled collcction of books, This point hasnot beon resched, however, without much diecussion, aud the severo protest of many of the Jeeding ministers of the different denominations in the eify. Two lasgely attended opposition _moetings have been held, and committees con- fisting of Baptist, Methodist, Congregational, Presbyterian and Universalist’ clergymon’ hiavo Toen appointed, and various resolution have ‘Doen publisbed to the world, but all to no pur- poso, The library is to be opened on Sundsy, is $roe to.all, and,brief as hisa beon the cxporiment, 3t is‘already regarded successful. During tho seven hours it was open on a recent Sunday, it §e eatimated thst not lesa than five hundred per- &ons visited the rooms for the purpose of read- in %\0 library connected with the Y.3f, C. A. of Chicago was thrown open for Sunday reading Jast Oclobier. The Christian Union and the City Yibrariés are also open- every Sundsy. It js .. found by obecrvation that ~ sbout .fonr bundred persons visit these insti- tations~every Sunday afternoon. They are mostly young men, intelligent, urbine, and woll dmssved.k";'l":.\rg cannot br% c%‘f;:d among the yegular -going part o -community, nor can they be xggu%as a8 at all indifferent church influcace, forroligions exercises araoften heldin these rooms, which they gladly attend. The department of literature engaging the atten- tion of tliese youn %n;:]x is aJmos%v axdna“:éy the magazine an ly paper. We regret to n-unem;f:,ziln the words of Jfir librarian, that “the religious papers are seldom resd.” The e ent of opening - the various libraries in Chicago on Sunday is regarded 28 & successful -one, though it is confessed by the friends and pdvocates of the movement that the experiment has not Dbeen as successful as expected. It Is, notwithstanding, proj t iarge the reading facilities of the city by estab- Tishing many more such Libraries and reading Tooms, all of which will be cpened on Sunday. CHRISTIAN TNITT. The: spirit of trne Cbristisn liberality and brotherhood, §s foct seitling upon the great head of our earthly Christondom. Witness the adoption of o Infernational Series of Sunday School les- «ons everywhere ‘now used on our continent ; the great work of our Young Men’s Association 20 bo found in almost every city and. village, in which-all Christinne unite; the remarkable. re- sivals now pervading the land, that in every instence, bresk down all dividing-walls, and laco the various Christisn denominations on tha same level of a God whose blessings fall alike on all. ) The Union Bible. Beadings of Chicago, and their beneficent -results argue aleo tho eame grand end. In faor, the revivals of to-day, here and elsowhere, aro the outgrowth of what is practically & Christian wnity. After all, there are more points of harmony than of difference betvieen the leading Christian denominations in tho world, and the points of sgreement_are by far the most essential. A prominent German scholar defines these points of agreement as follows : Christ provided eternal rodemption; in Him the world is_reconciled to God; 2 Ton. FEvery man'sconcern now is to appropriate this salvation. Word and Sacrament are the Holy Spirit's aeans, which flie redemption wrought in Christ, ‘Drings with it, and sets in operation by tho uso snd ei- frot of which kalvation i bronght to tho sinner. The ‘these mcans of tho Bpirit is partly pro- 3, partly converling and persovering, impart- {igand developing a now principloof life,” This es- sontial change 18 called_regencration. 1t is grace that makes man richtoous, holy, blessed. Whero there s forgiveness: of sins, ‘thero’ must bo sanctification ; Where tho calling righteous, there the making right- eous, The functions in which tho rocctved ‘Tuanifests itself, are repentance, faith, love, hope.” TIIE SUNDAY BOHOOL LESSON. ) Mr. E. S. Albro, & prominent layman of the Socond Baptist Church, snd merchant of this city, lesd tho Teachers’ MoetinE. in the Motho- dist Block, yostorday noon, at which the Bundsy Bohool lesson for to-dey was.very thoroughly discussed. The rooms were crowded, and a num- ber were standing in tho halls without. The leason is rocorded in Genosis, 22d chapter, from the 1st to the 14th verse, the %euerll subject of which is the ‘‘trial of Abraham's faith.” Br. Albro said the practical pointof the Josson ‘was that of gubstitution, the whole bolizing tho sullerings and sscrifico of the Lord Jesus Christ in tho place of the sinner. Don't Iose sight of Chirist on Calvary to-morrow. Lot us stand by the Cross with faith. The just shall Liva by faith, ote. . . D. g Covert said that, as a story of fact, this was one of great importauce, and should bo taught the children, 80 that it should never bo forgotten. It was not Abrabam's, but God's offoring. Isaac's obedience was commended. In & sense, every Christian is a son of Abraham, and should be willing to be lsid npon the sltar. Isaac's submission was symbolical of Christ's ‘submission in the garden. Abraham, no doubt, Tully intended to offer up his son; but to have dono this without faith would have been a worlk of torture; but with faith he knew all would bo well. Teach the childron faith in God's word, and thet He will “never, no, nover, for- sake.” The meeting was closed with prayer by Maj. Cole. BEECHER. The religious press of the city have given Mr. Beecher and his recent lecture on ‘ Manhood and Money” a pretty thorough criticism. All agree that the celebrated divine is looking s lit- tle older, is less enthusiastic, thongh sufliciently brilliant to fascinate a Chicago audience, but re- specting the substance of the lecture, there is not such unanimity of opinion, ‘They bhave dashed out on homilies concerning “ worldly Plessum," “ mammon,” ‘“ money,” ¢ manhood,” ¢ fashion,” etc., which, from this stand-point, is rather damaging to the moral force of the lec- ture.. * It leans s little_to self-indulgence, says the Advance, and ¢ Christian readers,” says the Interior, ** of the Bible, even though their prac- tice is in ill accord with their words, will still be- liavn“'flmt the love of the world is enmity against DIBLE READING. Another series of Bible-readings have been held during the week past in the Third Prosby- sod to grestly.en- |- Iike thic ancient cloven tongues, is | terian Church. D. L.

A council convened at the Twenty-fifth Street Baptist Church on Thursday afternoon,—Dr. Northup presiding,—to take into consideration tho propriety of* ordaining Loren T. Bush, who has been acting pastor of the church for the past two or thrco years. After the usualex- amination, the candidate was sccepted, Lis re- lating of his experience, call to the ministry, and basis of doctrine being satisfactory. The ordination services took place in the evening, consisting of ordaining prayer, sermon, o $o the candidate, charge {o the church, and tho Inying on of Lands. Nesrly all the Baptist churches wero ropresented in the council. PRAISE-MEETING. :_ An interesting Erfiapqnuofing, led by Prof. J. D. Sankey, was held in the Lincoln Park Con- grogational Church, on lust Wednesday evening, 11 connection with the regular prayer-meecting: ‘At theso mestings, now very common &nd popu- Jar in the East, and productive of much good, the congregation conyene more especially to praise God in the singing of hymna and_sacred Bongs. The .Bible-meetings, along with the praise-meetings, are having the offect of filling the prayer-rooms in our eity. PHILIP PHILLIPS. .

The Rowdy Elemcut Still Unsubducd--At- tempted Assassinntion of o Policemian anda. Citizen--The McVeigh Brothers. ° One of tho chicf causes of the riotous condition of ‘Bridgeport s been the collisions which have been constantly occurring betwoen the members of the va- rious trades-union societies, These societies, whileor- ganized to correct what the members blicved to bo abuses, affccting all alike, have never worked harmo- nionsly, and the result has been o warfaro which has only Iacked opportunities to end in bloodshed and loss of life, For somo time, the butchers in the packing-housea Bave been 1n & state of turmoil, and & portion of the unlon men abaudoned tho orgunization, By so doing they.incurred the hatred of the union men, and bave thereforo been the subjects of persecution_ever eince. Michnel Madden, James Loftns, Michael Hughes, and Patrick Halpin, members of the union, started out on Friday evening for the purposo of “ cleaning out” the places where the non-usion men were employed. They ed, in turn, Turner's slsughter-house and that of Reid &'Sherwi, At both plicos they di theie ntmost to create difficulty, but did not succeed. Policeman Beadell finally succceded in arresting the whole party, and locking them up in the Deering Sireet Station, Yeaterdsy morning they wero arraignod before Jus- tico Banyon, and held in bail of $00 each for further exnmination, Oflicer Beadell then roturned to the packing-house atter locking up his prisoncrs, and, while patroling in front of it, ke heard the report of & pistol, and at the samo instant o bullet posscd through the kkirts of his coat. A cry from one of the workmen followed, and it was Qiacovered that the ball had lodged in the left thigh of 4 non-union butcher, named John Nash. He was removed to his_residence, at No. 207 Archer ave- nue, and attended by Dr. Hissert. Xo cluo could be obtained of tho persan who fired the shot, THE ACVEIGE BROTHERS.

Report of Their Investigation IWhen They Get Ready. Tho Btock Yards had an uncommon sensation yes- terday. This was nothing less than the visit of a legislative commilteo that has come all the way from Springfield bent on investigation. This is not 2n ordinary commitice of the Houso of Representatives, nor even a mixed committee from ‘both bodies of the General Assembly. It is o Senate committee, with all the peculiar dignity that is sup- posed to attach to those men, or sets of men, who be- long to the higher law-making body of the State. It hind ot been notsed sbout before that there was any- thing at the Stock Yards that nceded investigation, except incidentsl smells and prospective nuisances. Nobody had ever heard that they charged too much there for their hay ond corn, Reports of fearful financial corruption had never been Wl in the streets of Chicago, or told snywhero except in some remote and economical hamlet, Bat 8 csusa for an investigation is 5 matter of alight consequence when there is » mania for inveatigation, and some one thinks that one is needed, The pleasures of travel as- snme in the mind’s e5e an_cxaggerated importance to the mind, especially when Springfield is the place to be forsakien, Neither can we suppose that the delights of Chicago are entirely unattractive to the rural legie- Iator. B0 the Committee came o the excellent Tran- st Touso night before ast, snd yesterday morning commenced its labors in one of the upper chambers the hostelry.

Pt ANOTHER HOMICIDE JUSTIFIED. Death of John Houlahnn, Shot by Oficer Cudmore on Friday Evening--The Policc- man Justiied by the Coroner’s Jury for Firing the Fatal Shot. Conirary to the opinion of the attending physician, Dr. Ault, John Houlshsn, who vwas shiot by OMcer Gustavus Cudmore, on Friday evening, at the corner of Van Buren strest and Paciflc svenue, died from the effects of the wound, at the Armory Palice Btation, yesterday morning st 8 o'clock. ‘The partlen- lars of the shooting wero given in detall in Tue TRUXE of yesterday, and need not, therefors, bo ropested. Coroner Stephens mpsnneled s Jury at the Armory Police Btation yesterday afternoon, and held an inquest. Quite s crowd of Houlahan's friends sssembled outside of the station, but menifested no particuiar feeling. The witnesses examined were the Cotinty Physician, Policeman Cudmore, Anthony Ma- hony, Hengy Bcbroeder, Ssmuel Eogel, Pollccman Scully, William Mero, and Herman Schroeder. Their ‘staterments caineide substantislly with the account of tho affray slready given in Tex TareuNz, The verdict of the Jury was as follows ; We, the Jury, find that the said John Houlshan cama 10 his death, March 8, 1673, from s gunshot wound, fired from a pistol in’ the hands of Officer Augustus Cudmore, ond we, tho jury, find the sald officer, Augustus Cudmore, justifiabls in firing sald shot, he wnw;;nfle‘nnumm tho discharge of his duty s & ce officer, This verdict, which is the cnly one that could have boen deduced from the evidence, msy be recelved ss an indication that if courts of law cannot punish mur- derers and assassing, the citizens of Obicago will en- courage harsh and severo measures on the part of the police, #s tho. only means of subduing and punishing tho ruffians of the clty, The jury was _com| of men of the highest character, men Whoso passlons would not bo noedlessly aroused, and yet #ix of them were anxious to append to the ver- dUct thio following: * And we, the jury, would com-* ‘mond the action of Ofiler Cudmore, as Being the only ‘means by which the refgn of Iswlessness, now in pro- gress in Chicago, can be put down.” For rea- Bons, this was not included. 2 ‘John Tenze, theman who was arrested with Houla- Dan, waa brought beforo Justice Banyon yesterday moraing, and held in $500 ball until Friday, tho 15t fmst.

It now gives s great pleasuro to state_that, after careful catimate of our means and our obligations, we find that, after setting aside $30,000 for tho relief of tho fi of firemen killed or disabled at the fire, wo have a suffi- cency of money remaining to moet all the legitimate demandsupon us for assistance or aid, without further contributions from our friends out of thecity.” We cannot close this communication without again thank- ing you for the promptness with which you tendered us your sympathy and ald in our hour of disaster, and assuring you that your great liberality, whilo you were not yet recovered from the effects of your own greater con tion, is folly apprecisted, and will be tress- uredin tho' wnemory of us sll.
