is now more than ever subjected, do not seom have i PRY the CObtinas ears of | those who avow it to be the light to their feet ami de lamp to their path. They all agree in one faith, one Lord, one baptism; but they do not agree a8 fo what is their faith, or their Lord or their baptiom. These very aseociations, in | fact, strengthen them in their repelling tendencies. Instead of individual opinions, we have great masses of opinion, mov- ing like a phalanx, shields in front and the short, quick eword behind it, The Presbyte- rians bave long been divided into opposing schools, accompanied by large nebulas of Con- gregationalism, independent of discipline, with gach a nucleus, occasionally, as Beecher. The Methodists, too, huve their divisions, which threaten to overthrow the aristocracy of its de- mocracy and relieve the hard working preachers from the pitiless rule of the circuit principle. The Episcopalians are also sundering on me- diwval theology, separating as to candles and al- jars, vapery and apery, which are the outward and visible signs of ascendant Puseyism hung out on the way to Rome. The Baptists are in no better state of mind, with the vexed questions of seventh day, or Lord’s day, and the conviction that there must be a new translation of some few words in the Bible, or perdition will catch our souls, The Dutch Re- formed churches appear -to enjoy perfect har- mony, in a rare exception—the ancient quarrel of whether the hook caught the fish or the fish caught the hook being fully settled and forgotten. In addition to all these difficulties, the respec- tive agitators, with some honorable exceptions, have undertaken to meddle and mix up in ques- tions exclusively political. The one of slavery bas been their favorite speciality, and several of the largest denominations of Christians have been torn in pieces by its untimely and uncalled for discussion. Christianity, pure and simple as it was banded to us by its founder, positively ignores political institutions beyond the duty of obedience, which was owing from and paid by the early Christians to the most absolute and cruel powers, and to one pre-eminent in adopting and carrying out the principle of slavery. Modern teachers of the new light school would not only overthrow governments and constitutions, but would, if they could, dethrone God himself for not doing it at their desire. The most incalcula- bie evils have resulted from the perversely di- rected power of professing Christians to ques- tions with which they have no business whatever. These heterogeneous elements are now gather- ing in their natural orders, for annual compari- 00, account, and renewal. We do not expect to perceive any great change for the better. The subjects of dissension, the necessity of money, and tbe increasing wants of the brethren, are every year the same. The result will be the usual one. “Things equal to the same are equal to one another.” The city will be filled with the usual numbers, the newspapers wil! be filled with the usnal reports, and the public will yayn over them, and send the usual donations, Are there no great commanding Apostolic minds, who, in- tend of preaching themselves, as the manner of some is, will stride over these petty policies which so disfigure the Christian Church, and calm down that irritating temper which diffuses its acidity through every vein and artery of our body politic, by the hands of Doctors of Divinity and Professors of Theology? Let us have an in- suguration of @ new era in the Christian world. Let individual opinions be held sacred if you please, but do not array them in solid columns, with bangers flying and trumpets sounding. Let us, at least, have religious peace. Ov Awmassapors Never Berrer.—We have been hearing for several mails from Paris about the wonderful improvement in Mr. Mason’: ‘ealth—how strong he is getting—and how hearty be looka. It really looks as if he were strong enough, under proper pressure, to go through another term of office in the French capital. And Mr. Belmont, who is now in Italy, ia- stead of bis post at the Hague, and Mr. Dodge in Spain, and Mr. Dallas in England, we shovldn’t wonder if they were all in uncommonly good health, and ready to serve their country four years longer. But we apprehend their ple- thora of health will be gratuitous; their resigna- tions are expected and will be accepted: they might just as well be on the point of death.

Fekle and Fmma Augusta Cunningham, otherwise Burdell, willbe placed on trial for one of the moat extraordinary aud mysterious murders evr commited iu this or aay other country, and which clicited the comments and sur- mises of the editors of the Old World as well as the New. ‘The trial of this important case will be held in the Gireuit Court room; the folding doors between that and the Marine Court will be thrown open for the accommodation of the ‘Yast concourse of idle spectators that will no doubt aasem- blo, as well as the five hundred jurors that are subpoonaed. The Attorney General of the State will act with the Dis trict Attorney (Mr. Hall) and his assistant (Mr. Sedgwick) for the people, The difficulty of procurmg an unbiassed jury, which was experienced im the case of Raker, charged with the murder of Poole, will also here present itself; for there is scarcely @ man in the communt- ty who has not “formed or expressed an opinion on the guilt or innocence of the parties.”’ The trial, however, wily not last ws long as is generally supposed, as a vast amount of the testimony adduced st the memorable inquest would bo irrelevant and inadmissible. : In the general term of the Supreme Court the mandamys against the City Judge, tocompel bim to act asa Police Commissioner under the old law, and thus ‘test the conatl- tutiouality of the new one, will have a preference over all other cages, and will be beard this morning at the sitting of the ‘The Superior Court wil! hold two trial branches. The cele- brated slander suit of Forbes against Bowen & McNamee now several years pending, will be tried this term. ‘The Common Pleas will also hold two trial terms, The charge against Coroner Connery has closed, and the Judge will report to the Governor, whose decision on this curious accusation will be looked for with anxiety. The investigation before Mr. Commissioner Betts, on the claim of the French government for the extradition of Charles Carpentier, Louis Grelet, Auguste Perot and others, which was commenced on the 9h of February last, and has been diligently proceeded with ever since, still re- mains unfinished. The summing up has been commenced; in all, six counsel aregto speak; one has already spoken his speech, ocoupying four days. The great mass of testi- mony, the vast amount of the alleged defalcations on the part of the accused, the number and subtlety of the points of law raised, to say nothing of the interludes, such asthe controvyersey on the document withheld by Mr. Busteed, the unexpected and unexplained confession of Carpentier, have served to invest this inquiry with a more than ordinary amount of importance, Carpentier le New York on Saturday, in the steamer Fulton, under the uni- versal name of Smith, and accompanied by officer De An- gelis, who was deputized by the United States Marshal for that purpose. The counsel for the other accused parties seem quite confident of securing their acquittal. Mr. Townshend will commence summing up for Grelet and Porot at the sitting of the court this morning. ‘The federal courts will be occupied with government and patent suits, and the charges against parties recently arrested for supposed cngagem ant in the slave trade from this port will also be subjects of investigation. Ja tho Martae Court there will be but twoJudges sitting, ‘at least for the preseat week, the large room adjoining the Circuit Court having been given up for the purposes of the Burdell murder case. We understand that there is a caugé on the Marine Coart calendar that will create some interest, notwithstanding the great centre of atlraction in the Oyer and Terminer, It is a case in which a wife sus for maintainance, and the defence is adultery with several wealthy individuals, Some married men, weil kaown in the community, are said to have furnished strong grounds for the domestic disquietude that is about to become the subject of investigation, and some of them are expected to be witnesses on the occasion. Altogether there will be a lively, interesting, momentous and scandal creating ime around our law courts this month. ‘Tho May term of the Court of Sessions commences this morning, Judge Russell presiding. Of course the criminal trial which will occupy the attention of the Oyer and Ter- miner—that of Mrs. Cunningham and Mr. Eckle, charged with murdering Dr. Burdel!,and which was removed from this court—will absorb public attention, and the proceed- ings of this court will be comparatively neglected by the readers of criminal intelligence. Yet several interesting trials will be beld, among them five capital cases, namely, Dorsay, the negro, for the murder of the girt in Worth street; James Miller, an Englishman, for the brutal murder ofbis wife; Michael Wogan, Burns and Linford, and Dening, for arson in the first degree.

Removed to No. 3 Vesey street, Astor House) by Marsh & Co,'s radical cure FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. MONEY MARKET. Bona, May 3—6 P. ML During tho paat week the stock market has been free from those sudden and violent fluctuations which marked the operations of the week previous. Prices have been pretty uniform, and the transactions indicate a gradual but steady falling off in amount. The season of the year is rather favorable for an upward speculative movement. The money market ls everything that could be desired for ‘an expansion in prices for stocks generally. The supply of securities is large enough to moet Any demand, and the brokers ef Wall street are eager for a good strong fight. ‘With all these elements in favor of an inflation and speou- lative activity, we do not see th@first indication in the Stock Exchange of such a movement, but on the contrary Ubere is a foeling of distrust and apprehension that must prove fatal to many stocks which are now with so much difficulty sustained. With an easy money market, with the annual speculative season now at hand, with a desire on the part of operators to give life and activity to the market, @ speculative excitement is utterly out of the question. The diffculty is in the character of tho principal stock securities on the market, It ts impossible to get up any cornering operations: ‘There are no outside buyers ready to take hold and help along any transaction, but on the contrary, there are thou- ands who stand ready to take advantage of any favorable opportunity to get rid of the stocks they now hold. That ts all the aid outsiders will give ang attempt on the part of the brokers to get up an inflation in prices. The public mind hag, within the past year or two, been completely re- volutionized in regard to railroad stocks. A general dis- ‘trust prevails, and confidence has almost entirely disap- peared. Thove who have been heavy losers condemn the catire list, while others make & few exceptions. The only exceptions which, in our mind, should be made, ao far ax Permanent investments are concerned, are the land grant railroads of the extreme Weet. These land grant railroads have a real basis, and that is more than can be said of any road constructed simply upon stock subscriptions and bond issues. These land grant railroads are built upon the only sound and correct principle, for they operate entirely for the improvement aud increase in value of their own property. Land grant companies are directly be- netted by the construction of their roads, in the same way that land in New Engisnd and New York bas been increased tenfold in value by the completion of the railroads which now penetrate overy section. In Now England aad New York the owners of land have been vastly benefited by rail. roads, while the stockholders tn them have been ruined. Land grant railroad companies help themselves first and the public afterwards. A railroad company that spends twenty millions of dollars on a road, and has nothing to show for it but two or three haadred miles of rails, the right of way and depot grounds, cannot compare for a mo- ment with a company that has for the same amount ex. pended all that, and a million or two acres of land besides lying along its route. For permanent investments, there is ‘20 sort of comparison between them. The land grant rail- road bas an immense property, independent of its road, ke. ; while the other bas nothing but its road, the construc ton and operation of which improve and jacrease the valuo of property in which it has not the most remote in terest. There are yery fow land grant roads on the mar: ket. Where they are, the stock commands good prices, and We do not see any defect in the system upon which they have been organized. Tuey have the substance which must steadily increase in value, while the other roads must ‘be steadily detertorating, and ultimately have very little to show for the vast expenditures made. There has been no movement in any particular stock during the past week. The greatest Guctuations have been in Michigan Southern and Cleveland and Toledo. Prices for these stocks have been very irregular. The opera: tions have been principally for cash and on buyer's op- on. The efforts to corner the street for the cash stock of the Cleveland and Toledo hare been seriously !mpeded by the difficulty experienced in borrowing on a stock where so much doubt exists as to the amount issued, or which may be issued by the conversion of bonds or otherwise, as was the case last year in the attempted corner, whoa the stock broke down from 96 to 74 per contin less than one wook. This fact must induce great caution on the part of the cornerers, as well as om that of the parties lending mo- ney for the purpose; and we would counsel holders not to let pasa the present opportunity of realizing a price for this stock, which « cornering operation gives them, and which may never occur again. ‘The printed as weil as private advices by the last mail steamer from San Francisco, are in many particulars cor. roborative of the views we gave afew days since of the state of things generally in California. Business in that olty was excessively dull, and among business men money was gradually becoming more difficult of command, even at the high rates of intorest of 234 and 3 per cent per month. In the face of this conaition of things, « leading bank- ing house—Lucas, Turner & Co.—connected with Lacas, Simmons & Co., of St. Louis, had publicly announced their intention of winding up their business. HM. Sohwabbe A Co., a rich Manchester house, chiefly ocoupted with the loaning of money on collaterals, waa about closing its con- corns. And lastly, but of more importance than sithor of the others, the great Fronch house of Ploohe, Bayerque & Co., whose businces was confined simost oxclu- sively to tramaactions im mortgages and collaterals, it was publicly known had besa instructed by the chief house in Paris to wind up the concern with as little delay ‘as possible, and to remit the immense funds in their handa w Burope. At this distance these movements would appear paradoxical, and yet they are woll understnod by those who are practically acquainted with the peculiar features of the San Franciseo trade from {ts commence- ment, The prodwotion of go, wo are assured by prae- tical and experienced men, bas not declined, Ue actual exportation during the year 1866 having exceeded that of the previews year by nearly four millions, and from every different qnatter of the State come accounts of the free yield of the mines, more especially from the quartz ‘eek, which, under the rude but practical efforts of a class of experionced mén, ia doveloping an infinitely greater amount of riches than wheo worked by the preteoled soteoufic characters, whom the Fag!ish companios rent out in bot baste to the suriferous regions with scarcely an inquiry inte the condition of the country, its supply of water, Ite means of transportation, or the expense: of emp ‘porting the various employ fequirel to work the machinery, ko. {% not the want of monoy that hay caused the present deprewed state of things ia San ran. clwco, tA the want of trade.
