It appears that the eburch was purchased by a German congrega- tion about four years ago. The synod of Baiti- more furpished a portion of the purchase money, and held the church under their charge. Dit- ferent pastors have been im charge of the con- | regation during this time, and in May, 171, | i «¥. Robert Reitzel was designated by the synod itimore as the minister for one year. He wax duly installed, and for some time everything was harmonious, but recently trouble bas arisen and chargesot certain irreguiarsties having been made against the pastor, about two months ago, be was called before the consixtory and warned against the course he was purscing. This did not appear to have the desired effect, for he was ain called betore them, this time a porcion of the church from Baltimore being present, and a arning was administered. Last week comp'aint was made to the classes in Baltimore, | a body to whom all cbargee are referred. The ants were heard, the consistory sus- tained in their action, and the clergyman i from exercising the functions of hi Office as a minister of the Gospel until the 26t! the present month, when the classes woul | ve a session andthe trial take place. Since nsion the minister has called seve: the congregation. At a meeting st Friday night, he and those taki f the question declared themselves «iepe ndent and distinct of the synod of Bal- | timere, and proceeded to elect new trnsters aud a consistory—the minister stating that he expected he would be thrown over by the class but urged his friends to stand by bim amd retain possession of the charch. ‘The classes had then delegated a minister to come to thiscity and preach on Sonday (yester- day.)

The Baltimore and Potomac Rail- road it Depo: MEETING OF CITIZENS OPPOSED TO TUZ P20- POSED SIT On Saturday night last, quite a large gatker- inz of ertizens residing in Sonth Washington met at Potomac Hall, corner of 11th street and Maryland avenue, to give expression to their views in relation to the proposed location o: Baltimore and Potomac railroad depot on the government reservation, corner of 6th and B sireets porthwest, and the running 0! aecrocs the mall at 6th presided, and spoke of of our city councils inp gthe company the right to run their to the heart of the city, and locate i depot on ground which the city never held any title to. The bill now before the Senate is one which bas Passed the House of Repre- sentatives, and s‘mply confirms the bill passed by the city counci's. Shch is the state of the ca, and the citizens most affected by this ex- traordinary measure have not only never been consult d, but were entirely ignored. He called upen them now to tpeak their minds. Mr. F. A. Boswell said that while he believed the people of South Washington would fa-o: all improvements, they do not wish to sa them all toa ratiroad monopoly. ie said it had been sprung suddenly in the councils ata late hour che night when noone had a theught of such a thing. and had been rushed through before any- body had 2 moment’s time to consider what it meant. The most astonishing part of the trans- action was that there was only one vote in each board recorded against the measure. He after- wards ascertained that it had cost the railroad company £11,000 to get that bill throngh. Since that time he had suspected that there had not been a fair division as several of the olf city fathers bad been heard to complain that money was owing them for passing bills, and this was, no doubt, one of them. 3 was no idle’ talk, but’ he knew whereof he spoke. This company now proposes to run two tracks dow th street, and 27 trains daily is what is proposed to be run over them. He re erintendentot s the theory that ¢ schools, who advo letting them run down tth street he will rid the fourth district school ot the nuisance of a depot near it. He is simply mistaken—he for- gets that in place of the depot will be a repai shop, whieh is fuliy an objectio! school as the depot. The people in ington have not been consulted in this matter, and they new find themselves wound up between two great railroad rivais, and th sought to be made as to the vain tricks of Gar- rett was to his mind ne point at all. A committee of five was appointed by the cbair to draft resolution: The committee retired, and sence Mr. W. B. Evans a:hiressed the meeting, saying he thought it couid be shown that the City Councils bad no right to deed away this Property to the Baltimore and Potomae ratiroad company. Gen. Chipman had told him it this tact could be established he would oppose the pass- age of the bill. As one of the school trustee: he (the speaker) was of the opinion that p the depot on Virginia avenue would be no d ent to the schools in th: was glad to be able to uperintend- ent Wilson had changed his mind about this matter. The Chair offered a resolution th € to present the resolutions the ratification of the granting certain p to the Baiti- more aud Potomac railroad for depot purposes request Richard T.

Green. ‘The opinion of Mr. Merrick has been given in which hestates that the strip of land which it is nroposed to donate is the exclusive property ol the United States, and that the corporation of Washington had no right to give it away. In conclusion he says “that if the title thereto had been in the city of Washington, the m cipal authorities would uot have ventured to pose of it for the uses and purposes to which i Low proposed to apply it; aud certainly not withont in some way providing to meet the objects of the original grant. Such an exercise or Vg nbarl would have been plain, manifest, and flagrant breach of trust.” The papers were presented to the Senate committee to-day. =i Jvetice To Weow 1 BELoNnos.—In justice to one of our most enterprising citizens, whose energy and activity have secured for himself a fair share of public patronage, we publish the following card, which explains itself: To the Public.—As there are certain merchants who ridicule the idea of advertising, and say that it is only intended to make newspaper men rich, and who at the same time claim that they never devote a dollar to such a purpose, and yet resort to mean expedients to reap the benelits of those who do advertise, I feel it due to myseli and to my patronsto state that I have no branch store in Washington, and none save that of my hoop-skirt and corset factory, at 408 7th street, Intelligencer buil Ladies in search of my establishment will please remember the name and t!e number, Charles Baum, 457th street ‘Than&ful tor past favors, I beg leave to inform the public that I have just received my new springstock, including ail the novelties in hoop- skiris, corsets, kid gloves, human hair, trim- imings, the most complete stock of faney and plain hosiery, and ladi furnishings, all of which are specialties, and that 1 will endeavor in the future, as in the past, so to conduct my business as to contime to secure the contidence of the ladies of Washington, the efforts of ene- mies and malicious persons to the contrary not- withstanding.

Oyoter season abou The Depot Site Controversy. RAILECAD KINGS BEFORE THE SENATE COM- MITTEE. The Senate District Committee at a special merting this morning heard Mr. Jonn W. "Gar- rett, president of the Baltimore and Ohio rail. road. in opposition to the bill recently passed by the House, giving the Baltimore and Potomac railroad cCmpany authority to construct a depot atthe corner of 6th street west and B street north. in this city. All the membersof the com- mittce bg present as were Mr. Garrett, Gol. Scott, Mr. assAs ator Cameron, J. W. Randolph, chief engineer ot the Baltimore and Ohio railroad company; George S. Keontz, of the same company; Ed: ward Potts, private secretary to Mr. Garrett, ex-Mavor Wallach, Gen. R. D. Mussey, Hon. T. L. Tullock, F. A. Boswell, and a namber of others. * Mir. C_B. Church stated that a meeting was held at Potomac hall in this city on Saturday evening last at which a series of resolutions was adopted in regard to the depet bill, and a com- mittee of five appointed to get a legal opinion as to the power to build a depot on the posed site. He asked whea he could be heard by the committee. Mr. Patterson said he would prefer to hear him to-day, asthe committee éestred te finish the consideration of the entire subject. ME. J. W. GARRETT SAID that for many years past the Baltimore & Ohio raroad has been endeavoring to select a for a new depot in Waehington which convenient for his company. showld convenic nee of the citizens of the District. peated efforts to eff-ci a satis‘actery arrange- ment have been made, but in vain. In the se- lection of sites for new depots there are two im- portant considerations. First, the wants of the citizens of Washington must be met; and sec- ond, a conneesion musi be mace with soutbern roads, ‘The opening of the new and important Met-opolitan road will give improved relatione between Washington aud the north, the west and the southwest. Mr. Sonmer inquired in regard to the termina- tien of this road. Mr. Garrett said it terminated at the Point of rks, and when opened would be a saving in of distance to Washington of 49 miles, and a saving to Washington as against Baltimore of 26 miles. It has never occurred to the managers ef the Baltimore and Ohio railroad that it is the intention of the government to interfere with the plan of the parks and other public improve- ments in Washington. Now there is @ strange misapprehension existing in regard to this whole business, both in Congress and among the citi- gens of this District. The building of a depot at the corner of 6th and Bs reets has nothing whatever to de with the cheapening of freights, asit is not be a treight depot. The bill provides that a width of only 150 feet shall be used for the new depot, whereas there is room enough besides on the reservation to accommo- date all the roads coming into the city, and all these roads are justly entitled to the same ac- commodations asthe Baltimore and Potomac. The Baltimore and Ohjo Railroad company now has propositions from fhe Pennsylvania Qentral Company locking to the construction of union depots at Zanesville and Newark, Obio, andgrct Colonel Scott is not willing to accommodate us in this city. The value of railroads depends mainly ou competition; and what Washington, as well as the whole country, desires are com- peting roads. Now Colonel Scott speaks of the speedy completion of the Baltimore and Poto- mac road as it Washington placed its main de- pendence upon it and their new depot. Mr. Garrett spoke of the tunnel being constructed by the Camden and Amboy road, and asked Colonel Scott when it would be completed. COL. SCOTT REPLIED by the first of Octobe e § t must be completed by the 15th ot Novem. n regard to the Baltimore and Potomac said it had been in process of ruction tor three y mainly because he had met with some opposition trom the authori- es or Marvla He was now assured by his ef cngineer that trains will pass over the i by the Ist of June next. Patterson asked Mr. Garrett pe likely to be more competiti ds have a depo instead of at two poi! Mr. Garret if there n if cor- at one pointin the on the outskir said it would be unfaig to one company superior advantages over another in the matter of a depot, as the road that could deliver passengers nearest the heart of the city would undoubtedly do the most business, COL. SCOTT EXPLAINED why he had made a proposition to Mr. Garrett for a rnion depot at Newark, Ohio. He owned but one half of the road at that point, and it seemed desirable for all to have a joint depot. ‘The depot question there and in Washington is altogether different. Union depts are desira: Die in smail placcs, but not in towns as large as Washington where each company has its own depot. The comfort and convenience of the people must be considered, and he (Col. 8.) was surprised to hear Mr. Garrect argue in the other directio Mr. Garrett said the questio people ? argument is how will the 1.

Mr. Lewis asked Mr. Garrett if be proposed to have a union depot where Col. Scott proposes to locate his, and Mr. G. replied that he was prepared for a depot there or at the intersection of Maryland and Virginia avenues. Mr. rett referred to the statement made in the Sen- ate by Mr. Cameron in relation to this subject, and said that the Raltimore and Ohio railroad company feels that the attack was unjust and entiely without basis, The company can de- monstrate that it has ‘acted with good faith to the people of Washington in every Instance. ‘The origin of these attacks was that some of the very interests at present connected with the Baltimore and Potomac road were formerly en- deavoring to get an opposition line to New York, and failing, they watc! every opportuntt to as- sail the Baltimore and Ohio ro. é Col, Scott.—* What interest do you refer tov” Mr. Garrett Senator Cameron andothers.” “ol.

Scott had a discussion in regard to the rates for carrying freight on the Delaware and Raritan Canal, and in regard to rates generaily on their roads, which wits iuter- rtpted by Mr. Sumner, who said he looked upon these matters as side issues, and would like to hear Mr. Garrett on ‘THE PRECISE POINT DEFORE THE COMMITTEE. ‘Mr. Garrett said his road br 1 been attacked, and the question was, could he be heard in re~ 'r.

Col. Scott.—* We don’t want to be obstructed by Mr. Garrett; we want independent action. We bave no objection to Congress taking np Mr. Garrett’s case de novo, and giving him twenty squares if necessary, but it is unfair for him to come here after all our trouble with an OBSTRUCTIVE POLICY.” Mr. Garrett.—‘‘What we desire is that no un- due advantage be given to one particular com- pany.

ARRYSTED FoR B1GaMy¥.—To-day, complaint was fiied in the Police Court by Margaret Vant that Richard Vant did feloniously intermarry with one Maggie Lovejoy, knowing that his former wife, Margaret Vang, was living at the time. On this information a warrant was issued and placed in the hands of Detective Bigley, who proceeded to the Congress livery stable, on Sth street, hetween D and E, and arrested Vant, the proprictor, and took bim before Judge Snell, who fixed the bonds at $2,000 for a hear- ing, which will come off in a few days.
