Edward Bentiey testified as to the post mortem examination conducted by lim, aud said be took out the stomachs from both bodies and took them to Dr. Antisell’s office, where he Opered them and emptied them into vessels Prepared for the purpose. Wiiness found Bicg m_ the examination he made to posi- tively disclose the cause of the death of the men, but it was bis opinion, from the absence of certain evidence on one band, and the pres- ence of certain proofs on the other that the | men toek poison and died from i's effects. Tae indications lea him to believe that it was a Barcotic polson. Dr. Thomas Antisell, sworu:—Witness is a edemical expert, and made the analysis of the contents of the stomachs of Lewis Taylor and Sandy Diggs. The stomach of Lewis Taylor contained about three inrge table spoen full | scarlet red tiaid, which became clear when | pisced in a glass. with a white sediment of jour or bread. The stomach of Sandy Diggs ‘was comparatively healthy in appearance, | except at one point at the lesser carvature wBich wes inflamed. The contevts of Diggs’ stomach filled a pint measure, something like a hasb, and some luinps among the inass which were potatoes, but no undigested meat. He looked for corrosive poison in Taylor's stomach. | bat found noevidence of such poison. He then looked for strychuine, and found sufficient evi- | dence to satisfy himself of the presence of strychuine. He could not get any im crystal form, but detected it by color tests. Having treated the stomach of Sandy Diggs in thesame manner, he was unable to detect the presence of any poison. There was a vinous smell about the contents of the stomach which led witness to believe that deceased bas taken some alcoholic drink shortly before death. Witness war bound to say that Taylor's death was caused by strychnine. The cause of Diggs’ death was not so clear, but the thickened ton- | dition of the blood clearly proved that it was potcaused by SDY noxious gases, as in those cases the blcod is lighter in color after death than usual. Although he could detect no poison in the contents of Diggs’ stomach, he was satisfied from the evidence be had heard and the presence of inflamation im ome portion. that his death was also cause: by poison. Dr. WP. Johnston corroborated the testi. mony of Dr. Verdi. Dr E. Bentley stated that he was of the opin- | ton that both of the men died from the same cause ming aud rendered the tollowiug verdic: — The said Lewis Taylor ant Sandy Diggs came to their death between the hours of I aud # o'clock a. m..on the 5th day of January, 1*59, room in the basement of the Rouse on the southeast corner of 15th and H street, occupied by the French Minister, im the city aud county of Washington. We further find that the cause ‘of death of the said Lewis Taylor and Sandy Diggs was from the administration of a quan- tity of strychnine by some person or persous nown to this jury. —e— SOLpIsR AND SatLog Visitors To Tak IN- RATION.—The following committe has organized py authori y of Idiers d Sailors’ National Executive Commitiee for the purpose of procuring quarters and facili- tating arrangements for the reception of sol- diers and sailors’ orgunizations intending to visit Wasbington on inauguration day: Major Timothy Luby.

On 4% street, Ieiand, vania avenue, ra leg, bet The Mutual Council of the Congregational | Church. \esterday, after our report of this Conneil | closed, the question was raised as to how fur the Council could investigate the affirs of the First Congregational Church of this city. Dr. Boynton and members of the church commit- tee claimed that the question of «.ismissing the pastor baving been paxeed pon, 8B2uld not be Dow considered, A resolution was finall, offered and adopted dectariug that the Cor cil bad the power to tavestigate all the trans- actions of the church they saw proper to in- quire into. Dr. Boynton and others were questioned by Mo pmo Dr. beeen tr nd they pro- tested against this retation Gen. Howard said that they (the disaffected members) were desirous to have the contro- versy cease; and if the decision was that he was the disturoing element, then he would leave, and it they should flnd that there was another disturbing element, then that too, should lose their membership. He denied that they | wished the pastor to be dismissed, bat simply | to put an end to controversy, and then read a letter agreeing to submit all the questions to the Couneil, and abide by the decision. i ‘A motion was made that a committee be ap- | pointed to confer with the pastor aud commit. | tee of the church during the Tecrss. which, | | after debate, was carried, and Rev. Mr. Par- sons, Rev. Dr. Wolcott and Deacon Smith were appointed ‘The Coun il took a recess until 6); o'clock. On Teessembling, the committee appointed | before the recess 10 meet with a committee of the chureh to consider the ground upon which the investigations of the Counci! should pro- ceed, reported that the charch and pastor de- | and agreed that all matters should be red which the church or any member | con: should present, and that ‘he Council shoutd of | course be free to express its opin‘on upon all the affairs and relations of the caarch. Dr. Boynton eaid there had been a misappre- | hension of bis position in the sapposition that he destred to prevent investigation in certain directions, Ou the contrary, be desired and wished to insist upon the fallest possible in- | vestigation of all matters concerning the affuire of the church. By a vote of the Council the church and pastor were requested to proceed with such presentation of the case as they dermed proper. Tbe church then, through the | pastor. presented the following questions for | the consideration and decision of the Council: | Ist. Is this church truly congregational in its theory and its useges, and has the pastor in | bis teachings or his practics departed in any aegree trom the customs of our denomination ? | 2d. In what respect, if any, do the principles and practice of this church'and pastor in re- gard to the colored race differ from those of a majority of the other Congregational churches | of ihe land ? 3d. Has the pastor been guilty, as charged by the minority, of uuministerial or unchristian conduct, either in the neglect of pastoral dur, or at the communion season, or at preparatory lectures, or in any other essential particular ! 4th. Has the success of this enterprise baen | such as should satisfy the reasonable expecta- tion of its trienas ? Sth. What advice witl Council give us ia re- gard to the financial position of this enterprise ? Dr. Boynton then offered to submit the cbarges which the disaffected had printed and circulated ata previous time; whereupon the Gisaffecied objected to receiving them. and at the suggestion of Dr. Storrs the dissaffected Proc: eded with their case. Mr. Bascom then went on to say that they bad asked for a church meeting in order to ask | to be heard before this Council, but that no meeting was held, because it was maintained that a committee had the whole matter in charge. He then repeated substantially what was laid before the ¢z parie Council, and which was publisbed at length in this paper at the time. He reterred to the charges made against General Howard, that he was attempting to use the church for political objects, stating that it was true that by his direction colored chil- dren bad been bronght in the school, but it was with no such object,and he did not believe that @ purer man lived. He also referred to the charge of being an amaigamationist, denying | that General Howard had said anything woich would warrant such an assertion. They all knew that General Howard was an active | worker ia the Sunday school, but he could not sayas much for Dr. Boyton, who had taken but little interest in the school. He spoke of the sermon of Dr. B. of November, 1867, at con. | siderable length, staung that the objection was Lot against the sermon «is a sermon, but because | ofits being preached at tha: particular time, | General Howard said that’ his objection was ic, buthe would not have entered « pro- ‘Xceptthat the acuon of the ‘church in & the sermon compelled him to enter his protest, He thought the sermon at that | time, with its endorsement, placed them in a repellant attitude towards the colored race—an | attitude whicbj be felt the ehureb should not | take after the promises made to the world. He | spoke of the action of the church after the ser- Mon in question, as being coutrary to the | usnges of the church, and said that his pro- | test Was not against the statement of the pastor. but against the resolutions approving the sermon. Mr. Bascom continued, calling attention to the pastor refusing to entertain reguiur mo- tions, as also that to the dismissal of au officer of the church irregulariy. At‘ o'clock Mr. B. not having concluded, the Council took a recess till 9 O'clock this morning.

The Council reasembled at 9 o'clock this moroing, when Mr. Bascom resumed the floor and continued bis statement in behalf of the minority. He noticed that at the meeting of March I-th, 188, the pastor presided and re- fused to leave the chair while discussing qu tons befove the meeting, althongh requested to do so. He noticed the letter of resignation by me pastor, which, it was understood, was not to be accepted. und he stated subsequently that he (Dr. B.) been requested to withdraw his resignation, and did so. Mr. B. deniea that the request was made by the church, but said it was made ina paper signed by some of the members. ‘The question was raised as to when business | meetings were held, and whether the minority | were in the habit of ‘attending the Sunday e¥e- ning services, at which meetings were some- umes called; Mr. Bascom replied, that the | minority did not attend as well as formerly, Aud the reason was that in the sermons and ai prayer meetings offensive allusions were some- times made to them. He alluded to three re- merkable scenes—the first being at a prepara- tory lecture, the second ata communion s son, and the third at another preparatory lec ture—in regard to which he would offer evi- derce. Referring to the lately-published pam pblet, he read a portion which he said was Libelous and actionable in the courts. The Council should thoroughly investigate the questions aud decide who are in the wrong. And let them know how others see them. The jority number probably 100 persons, and the minority about 75.

Anthony Bowen stated the onject of the meeting, and spoke of the great distress which prevailed among the colored people of ihe sec- lon of the city in which he resided. Their im- Ppoverished condition, be thought, in maay cases would account for the great preponderance Of crime among the colored over the white p»o- ple; but be exhorted his colored fello: wo observe strictly the rales of honesty, aad suffer sooner than commit any dishonorabie act. In conclusion, he vindicated the in- dustry of bis people, and said that all they ‘wanted was work. Mr. F. A. Boswell followed, stating that it was almost impossible for him to give any more. He had goue to the extent of his purse- | strings; but still,when the fact was paramoaat | that there was so much want aud distress among the people, he should feel it bis duty to Go everyiblng possible, even to dividing his daily income. It was necessary that a relief Association should be organized that night, and that proper committees ought to be sen! out to Procure aid, either im money or clothiag, old shoes, stores, &c. It was useless to talk about giving work to everyboay, for it was weli known that at this season of the year but little progress could be made in street or other im- provements. Dr. William are Stated thatas be under. stood the object of the meeting it was to form an aid association for the Seventh Ward, to act ip conjunction with the ceatral Provident Aid Soctety of Washington, although he was notin ‘avor of turning the funds collected over to tbat mstitation.

He o cluded by offering the Association the use of Lincoin Hall, on E street, free of charge, in which to hold their meetings. The offer was accepted, and a vote of thanks tendered Mr. Bowen. 14. O.

He also stated that Messrs. Varnell & Myers had sent, free of charge, 350 pounds of beef to exid society, and it was re- turned. ‘The Chair suggested that the contractors be requested to send 350 pounds to this ward free of charge. ‘The organization here proceeded to an elec- ved Provident Aid Scciet; tion of permanent officers with the following result: President, Mr. Obas, Hanley: Vice Pres- ident, Rev. A. Bowen; Secretary, F. A. Bos. well, Esq.; Treasurer, Mr. S. Netter. Mr. Boswell moved that a committee of three be appointed to ascertain by the next meeting the lowest rates for which they could purchase bread and beef. Qarried, and Dr. Boyd, A. Manning, and H.O. Johnson were appointed the committee. Mr. Boswell was of the opinion that the cer- Poration would farnish the poor of the ward wiih sufficient wood to keep them warm. ‘The committee was authorized to request that the Seventh Ward's portion of the money ap- | propriated by Congress for the relief of the poor in the District be placed in the hands of this as- sociation for distribution.

The tavernacle on th: altar bad been pryed open with a juamy, anc the chalices and ciborums taken out, and their contents (the sacred hosts) scattered over the floor of the tabernacle and the top of thr altar.
