“LOCAL NEWS. {(” Though Tug Star is printed on the fastest steam press In use sonth ef Baltimore, its edition Js so large as to require it to be put to press at an early hour; Advertisements, therefore, should be sent in before 12 o’clock m.; otherwise they may not appeer until the next day. —————-+2+e-—___ Notics.— District of Columbia Advertisements to be Inserted in the Battmcone Sun are received at and forwarded from Tux Stax Office. SS Re.iciovs —Yesterday being a favorable day, the congregations at sll the churches of our city were large and attentive. A great number of per- sons, Who during the entire summer have been absent from the city, appeared In their accustomed places In the various houses of oe ee —- were numerous. At the M. st cbapels and churches particularly there appears to be a growing interest. In the peculiar meetings which are now progressing the aid of talented ministers of varivus denominations will add to the interest which Lonpere age Some are expected to participate who fn years were general favorites in Washington. sii Trinity Church.—In the morning Rev. Dr. But- ler, rector, discoursed from Psalms 62.11: “God bath speken once;twice have { heard this; that power belongeth uato God.” It was impossible, + Se the Rev. gentleman, to live and not perceive vast and upresting power of God, which was around us and witbin us. After a thorough position of the doctrine of Atheism and Deism, speaker said that these doctrines might, how- ever, be so modified ax to exclude the of God from nature. It might be said t the Al- mighty bad imparted these permanent powers to re; but that he ded over them, and so ied the laws which he bad established as to suif Lis wise purposes. And this, he su . was the common idea of God’s power as it was exerted in the world. To the dreams, Atheism ag Deism, he would at tbat time give no re] t tothe last opinion, held my many, haps geod and wise, he would make that o jection which seemed to be expressed in the words of the text: “Power belongeth unto Ged.’ A little re- fection would exhibit to all the fact that nothing in nature was innate, inherent of necessity, but imparted by the Aegis, and by the virtue which worketh in itself or sustained itself, or by which it ——_ at some length to show the unreasonableness of the doctrine, held by many, of the inherent power of nature. Asin the realm of matter so in that of mind, “All power belongeth unto God.” God did not, however, carry on all the processes of man’s soul in the same way as he did those of the senseless matter. If-He did, this would make the soul no more respousible for its thoughts and acts and feelings than matter is, for its changes and con- ditions. The extreme views of fatalism inclined this way—that man was not a free agent, and that, therefore, the responsibility of man’s action lay with God. Place man’s soul on tbe same level and in the same Geng pe 4 with matter, and all the peculiarities which distinguisbed the spirit from tue desh would be destroyed. This was a crushing and degrading doctrine. But God acted otherwise in and over the soul from what be did in nature, because spirit was altogether a different sort of thing from matter. He upheld and carried on the proceeses of nature in accordance witb his nature and so in accordance with the nature of the soul did be exert the power in sustaining its light and carrying on its processes. Westey Chapei.—The congregations at this sta- tion were very large and the services Interesting. In the morning Rev. Mr. EMnger, of Wau Ubapel, preached from Pwilippiaus 2:12 ** W here- re: my beloved, as ye Lave always obeyed, not my presence only. but now much more in my absence, work out pew own salvation with fear and trembling * Atnight, Rev. Mr. Westwood, Union Chapel, preached from Hebrews 2:2 “For if the word spoken Ld angels was steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received & just recompense of reward, How shall we esca if we neglect so great salvation?” The services are also to be continued nightly in this chapel. Rev. Mr. McCauly, the pastor, has been very ill during the protracted meeting in this, his station. A reference was made to his condition by Kev. P. Light Wilson last night at the Ninth street sta- tion, in very touching language, expreesive of the Christian's consecration entirely to God. Living for the Lord, dying for the Lord ; living and dy- ng the faithful servant of Christ, demonstrating his entire consecration to his master. Upon in- quiry this »norning we learned that Mr. McCauly isno better; and bis friends and attendants fear that he cannet_possibly recover. Methodist Protestant Church, Ninth street — Rev. P. Light Wilson, psstor, conducted the services of the day. The discourse in the morn- ing was based upon the text of Acts 22 would to God that not only thou, but a: hear me this day, were both almostand a! t as] am, except these bond: sabject was the ‘-command to re; An earna- est to the unconverted followed a stro: argu t tm favor of evangelical repentance, from the text of Acts 17.36: “And the times of this ig- norance God winked at; but now commandeth all men everywhere to repent. Afrer the regular service, a brief but interesting prayer meeting ‘was enjoyed by the congregating, thus opening a series of meetings which is to continue every night, beginning at 7% o’clock andclosing at9x, until otherwise ordered. Rev. Mr. Butler, of the Lutheran Church, preaches to-night; Rev. Dr. Noble, Presbyterian, Tuesday night; and Rev.W. Roby, of Georgetown, late President of the Mary- land Conference, on Wednesday night. fethodist Protestant Church, Navy Yard —Rev W. T. Dumm, pastor, preached in the morning from Ist Joba, 2:16—‘-Hereby ‘ive we the love of God, because He laid down His life for us; and we onght to lay down our life for the brethren ** How great is the love of God. that, for sinful man, who had violated His righteous laws and deserved His jndgment, ‘He so loved us, he layed down his life,” that through His death we might secure everlasting. Yet how cull we are to appreciate God's mercy. Atnighbt, f om the words of ist John—‘“And he that keepeth his comma ents dwelieth in him, and be in him; and hereby we know that he abideth in us by the spirit which be hath given us. Methodist Church South—Rev. J. A. Proctor, _ conducted the services. The sermon in he morning was based Na the text—‘ The of God is come nigh unto you.” Luke At night, from Proverbs 26th verse—“My son, give me thine congregations were very large. At night, the service at the altar was resumed at the conclusion of the discourse, and six penitents vesented themselves. The mectings will be con- inued nightly during the week. St Ratrick’s Church —High mass wascelebrated at — Cahsenes a. m., by —— Pluokett, an unusually large oe toa bein; . The sermon by Father Eyuwas from*the Gospel for the day, as found in Se. Joba's Gospel. The old choir —- in atteudance, the 16th mass by Haydn in B was sung in excellent style. Union Prayer Meeting, (Waugh Chapel,) under the auspices of the Yo Men’s Christian Asso- ciation, was well atte: afternoon ‘The meeting was led by Mr. Joun 3. Slater, of the association. The interest which has been mani- fested since these meetings commenced seems to be Papeay Quite a number of written re- quests have m presented, which are preserved ia a scrap book for future reference. 3, A Naw Caare. altel er a year ago we published an account of the establishment of a mis- sion scheol ov UO near Tweutieth street, eepeety erection of a school house, and its use for religious services. The school was placed u rintendence of Rev. T. Remick, of George- wn. So rapidly did the school increase that in & few weeks the house was entirely too sunall to accommodate the scholars. The trustees at once determined to sell the little schoolhouse and erect alargerone The result is that before the deter- mination was generally known outside the neigh- borkeod, a brick chapel, costing about $2,000, = ‘been erected on the corner of O and Twentieth ‘x45 feet in size; neatly furnished aud ar- for ey aoe chapel service, as well as for and rishing school.

Geoncrtown CaTTLs Makxet—About 509 beef cattle were offered at Drover’s Reston s0N Mr Editor: Not — any reply to the ‘call for information relative to sar- coy of Alexander Severus, (so-called) which appeared in the Star of the 3d instant. I beg leave to offer a brief account of the importation of that relic of antiquity, togetber with a few facts and figures which seem to justify your correspondent in bis nion that the Sarcophag' contai! the bones of hers da ton A Twenty-two years ago the sarco) tecently raat & the Smithsonian insite fore the Patent Office. and another of about the same dimensions, were taken from the heights near the town of Beirut, in Syria, and brought thence to the United States by the late Commodore Elliott, ia the frigate Constitution. The coffin last men- tiowed was presented to one of the literary insti- tations of Pennsylvania, I think to the college at Pisin It had on one side of it the following inser! : us never IVLIAMAMMAEA VIXIT ANNOS XXX, in Roman characters, expressing, according to the Roman custom, the number of years the de- funet had lived, and avoiding any allusion to death. be ‘ , The Empress Julia Mammaea and her son Al- exander Severus were both natives of Phonecia. hence it was concluded that a sarcophagus found in that region, and inscribed with her name, had contai her remains. By a boider and less plausible stretch of probability the nearest empty ‘us, without any inscription whatever, was decided to have been that of her imperial son. This hypothesis appenss to usa remarkable non sequitur. It is as if a stranger, visiting a cemetry, in Jamestown and seeing a tombstone there in- scribed with the name of Smith, and near it an- other with no name on itat all, should decide thut the latter marked the remains of the renowned Captain Jobn Smith, who vas saved by Pocahon- tas. Upon the whole it is probable that “the wish that the coffin might imperial,” was father to the thought. So much for facts, concerning which Canning once said “‘there is nothing so fallacious, except figures.” Nevertheless let us try the 5 Alexander Severus was proclaimed Emperor in the fourteenth year of his age and had reigned thirteen years and a few days when, during a campaign in Germany, his soidiers becoming ex- asperated at his strictness as a disciplinarian, and excited by the intrigues of Maximinus, who as- Pired to the throne, fell upon AieRander and murdered him in his tent They killed his mother at the same time and e. Now 14 plus 13=27. The inscription on the sarcop! us found at Beirut informs us that the Julia Mammaea who occupied it lived thirty years. Consequently if we subtract from this sum Alexander’s age, when he died, we have 30—27—3, and thus are forced to the conclusion either that this sarcophagus be- longed to a younger namesake of the Em ress, Or that that lady was but three years old when the Emperor was born, which seems emprobadle. It is well understood that no one connected with the Smithsonian Institute is in any degree respon- sible for a blunder, which for twenty years no one has taken the trouble to correct, as your contribn- tor of the 3d ju temarks, however, it should not be bir liseia in an institution established for the diffusion of knowledge among men. We hope, therefore, if the legend as it stands hasn’t been patented, it will undergo suitable correction before the relic is formally added to the museum of the Institute. Yours. O.K. ALEXANDRIA MATTERS.—The weather yesterday was delightful, and, as ac uence, the numer- ous churches of which Alexandria can boast were all well attended. At the Methodist Protestant church Rev Mr. Bitting, of the Baptist church, officiated in the evening—Rev. Mr. Ward, the regular pastor of the P.church, filling the mipit of the Baptist church. Mr. B. chose for fis text the following words, contained in the ith verse, 5th chapter of Second Corinthians: “ The love of Christ constraineth us.” We Ttegret that for want of space we are unable to givea more detailed notice of this very excellent dis- course. The choir of this church, under the lead- ership of Mr. McCormick, is certainly one of the best, if not the best, in the city. The attention of the proper authorities of Alex- andria is called to the fact that persons are in the habit of gunning in the different cemeteries of the city, much to the annoyance of those who fre- quent the “cities of the dead.’ This is not as it should be; and we feel assured that proper steps will be taken to prevent the nuisance from being further indul, in.

Wxoxc Party to Comriain —On Saturday afternoon a man named John O’Brien entered the office of Justice Donn and asked for a warrant against one man and three women, who he said bad abused and beat him, at a house on Second street, between F and G. He had evidently been considerably pecked about the face, and he ex- hibited a gash in his right thigh, where he had been cut with a knife or other sharp instrament He stated his case as a as could be expected of a man about half tight, with a tongue laden with a foreign brogue; and in the course of bis statement, in order to make it impressive, the emphatic expression “by G—d, si twenty times, though ordered by the 5 stop it, and promising at every time to desist. He got through with his complaint, however, and a warrant was placed in the hands of officer Yeat- man, who proceeded at once to make the arrests The parties were brought up, and the result w 2 decision against the complainant, with a suspi- cion of his not being entirely guiltless himself. The affair grew out of whisky. The gash in John’s thigh was not satisfactorily explained by himself, there being no evidence of it having been done by acut through the pants. The case was dismissed, and John started off without the satisfaction he swore be would have. Musicat Caancrs.—Prof. J. P. Caulfield, the accomplished music teacher of Georgetown Col- lege, and organist of St. Patrick’s Church in this city, bas received a most flattering engagement to tske charge of the Cathedral organ at Charles- ton, S.C , and conduct the Musical Association of that cf id bas, in consequence, resigned both the above positions here. During a resi- dence of five eri in the District of Columbia, Prof. C. has filled with signal ability his musical datles at the College, and worn a wide and envi- able reputation as an organist, and made hosts of frienda.. As a teacher he stands atthe head of bis profession bere, and as an organist he {s un- rivaled in this or any other American city. He leaves for his new post this week, and we recom- mend him tothe especial consideration of the Charlestonians. Prof F.N. Caulfield, brother of the above, late chapel organist and assistant teacher at the Col- lege, and organist at St. Matthew's Church, has received a Proposition to take e of an organ in Albany, and thus Washington is again to be left withou rst class performer on the organ. = will all — “ Prof. Schwing, of altimore, suce ‘be latter temporarily at St. Matthew's Church. om J We learn, also, that Dr. Perebeau, organist of St Aloysius Church, is about to resign that post, in consequence of a more advantageous en; ‘age- meut which he has received in Baltimore. Thus the organist’s place in the three principal Cath- ollie churches in this city, (St. Patrick’s, St. Mat- thew’s, and St. Aloysius,) will shortly be vacant.
