ontienn niin a, a aes Ing thom, “Was Christ divided? Was Paul eracified ?” But we have said that this union which we advocate will result in co-operation in efforts to promote the common end—the salvation of maukind, Let us illustrate. There are in this country, for instance, about forty national benevolent and church societies and organiza- tions, besides a host of local ones, each with its own lumbering machinery for the collection and distribution of its moneys and values among those for whom they are designed. It is estimated that this labor consumes from three to ten per cent of the aggregate receipts of the several societies. Now, were all those societies organized for one particular object, to associate their efforts, how mach cheaper and more effectively they could work! Were our several Bible, Tract, Church Extension and other societies thus to unite and to co- ‘operate for the self-same end, how much grander would be the result! The annual ag- gregate amount of money recelved by those forty societies is about six million five bun- dred thousand dollars. The only society in which there is a denominational attempt at co- operation is the American Bible Society, which has an annual income of nearly three-quarters of @ million dollars, And so greatly is this society esteemed by the Methodists that the last General Conference of that body by resc- lution expressed their entire confidence in its management and labors, and recommended it to the continued and increased liberality of this denomination, which has within five years paid into the society’s treasury five handred and one thousand one hundred and sixty-one dollars, Let there be, then, one grand federal union of Christians im this land, which sball direct the general operations of the several missionary organizations for the promotion of the kingdom of Christ, and not for the spread of sectarian dogmas or particular isms. The Church is longing for it, and the world is wait- ing and wondering at the obtuseness and stu- pidity of Christians whose love for isms is so much stronger and more binding than their Jove for Christ. And the Hgrap and the American and International Christian Moral Science Association are seeking to bring about this union. How long ere it shall be accom- plished ? The Police Murder. We have not said anything which might Prejudice the case of the police officer who was charged with the death of the unfor- tunate youth Murphy, who died in the station house, or was carried, in the very throes of death, into the pelice station the other night. Now, however, that the testimony has been heard, and the Coroner’s jury have pro- nounced the policeman guilty of the death of this youth, we speak freely in denouncing it as a case of the most abhorrent cruelty, as a wanton taking of human life without a shadow of justification. What does the evidence show? A drunken youth was being con- veyed to the station house by four robust, full grown men, wearing the uniform of the potice, and armed with clubs to protect them- selves against any violence which might have occurred in the performance of their duty. The boy struggled, it appears, and became restive. The officers themselves swear that one of them held him by the right arm and one by the left; another held him by the right leg and another by the left leg, and so they carried him to a wagon. We can imagine what amount of resistance a man in this position could offer, and yet it was at this time that the accused officer beat him to death by blows on the stomach—beat him to death, we say, because they only brought a corpse to the station house. This case is a poor commentary upon the efficiency of the police, and, horrible as it is, it becomes a matter of serious reflection when we remember bow frequently unfortunate prisoners come to a sudden and mysterious death and how readily the story is wiped out from the public memory by a shallow investi- gation and a whitewashing verdict. We could recount many cases within a year where men have dled without satisfactory cause after their arrest by the police on charges of drunken- ness or disorderly conduct. We fear that the club, exercised under the influence of brutal minds, had a good deal to do with the death of these parties. In the murder of this youth Murphy we have a case with which the Grand Jury will have to deal, but it is time that the Police Commissioners should look to the organization of the force. Everything may be ship-siape at headquarters, In the theoretical part of the system there may not be a flaw; but in its practical operation we have had evidence enough for soine time past that the discipline of the police force is very loose and unaaXsfactory. The Police Commissioners are certainly competent to remedy this evil. Will they accept the responsibility of refusing to correct it? Tug St. Dominao Commission.—Our spe- cial corrrespondent in Jamaica telegraphs from Kingston that the steamship Tennessee ar- rived there yesterday from Port au Prince with the St. Domingo Commission on board. The Commissioners were engaged in writing ther reports, which, it was said, would be strong iv favor of the annexation of St. Do- mingo to the United States. As the Tennes- see was to leave Kingston for home, by way of Key West, as soon as she finished coaling, ‘we may expect her arrival here within the next eight or ten days. Ee Fisk, Ja. Again Evoarep.—The troubles of Fisk, Jr., are evidently growing with what they feed upon, Once out of the State court his suits at law are almost inevi- tably at fault. This woutd seem to prove that the federal conrts are unsuited for the sharp practice in which he delights, and which, in more congenial courts, succeed so well. Judge Blatchford yesterday, on motion of counsel acting for certain English sharehold- ers of the Erie Railroad Company, dissolved an injunction restraining the detendants—the English shareholders in question—from re- claiming or receiving back sixty thousand shares of stock held by them, and appointing a receiver to take present charge of said stock, The case being brought iato the federal courts Fisk, through counsel, served a notice of dis- continuance of the suit, Counsel for the shareholders insisted upon their rights, and Judge Blatchford, as stated, granted the order dissolving the injunction and directing the reatoration of the property held hy the re- celver, and the termination of the receivership. | NEW YORK HERALD, SUNDAY, MARCH 12, 187L—QUADRUPLE SHEET. Review of the Religious Press. With the exception of the Golden Age and the Christian Union, our religious contempo- raries do not put in an extraordinarily tine ap- pearance this week. We refer more to the matter of their works than the manner in which they are done up. The principal local topic discussed by the principal ‘‘discussive” papers is the high and mighty outrage com- mitted by the Baptists in accepting a site fer a home for their poor and helpless, ‘free, gratis and for nothing,” from the city. The high old Presbyterian organs, as will appear anon, are particularly severe upon their Bap- tist friends for thus opening a door through which the horrible Church of Rome, with its multitudinous demands for public charities, can enter with smiles “so childlike and bland.” It is a question now whether our Presbyterian or Methodist brethren would accept as a free offering from the old patriarchs of Jerusalem— if they were alive and in the flesh—a site on the hill of Zion upon which to construct a temple of charity for all. The Golden Age enumerates among the heavy weights who support women’s enfran- chisement such names as Wendell Phillips, Henry Ward Beecher, George William Qurtis and others. Why aot include old Mr. Ben Wade and other champions of the rights of womanhood to manhood? The Age thinks Protestantism has been sold for a city lot, In this, it is not improbable, the editor of the Age himself has been sold. Protestantism cannot be sold for a city building site. Not by a long sight. On this topic the Age remarks :— In taking this bribe, what else have they (tne Baptists) taken with it? They have taken with tc the responsibility of farnishing the Common Coun- cll @ pretext for making @ thousand greater gifts to: tae Roman Catholic Church, and, in this way, of feeding the hungry maw of the democratic party. ‘These Baptist trustees have enabled Mr. Tweed to say, “I have first silenced fora few thousand dollars the whole argument which Protestantisin can urge against me, and lum now free to open the bags of the public Treasury and to spend as much as I deem necessary for the purchase ef an overwhelming ate or Roman Catholic votes tor Tammany jail?” What will the Boss next have the credit of running? He may be taken for Beelzebub next, to judge of the smell of brimstone he has raised among the Presbyterians. The Christian Union is Beecherian: all over. It has a good article on “Christian Stewardship,” which closes with the follow- ing beautiful exclamation :— Happy 1s that man who, in going through life, Jays up constantiy a treasure for himself in the hap- Piness of others! Happy i8 he who is followed by grateful prayers and blessings after he nas forgotten the deeds that called them forth! That man is Christ’s who does indeed give to Christ’s service himself and all that he possesses ! His is the sweet melody and peace of life ; his alone 1s true success ! The Union is severe on the Baptists tor their operations in city lots, and says :— We invoke, in behalf ofa cause in which we are all common laborers and common sufferers, their indignant rebuke and disclaimer ‘of a deed which Dot only reflects eternal discredit upon them, but betrays all the rest of us; grieving and crippling every honest worker in the cause of political integ- rity and church independence, In regard to. the St. Domingo business the Christian Union sides with Senator Sunmer, and says:— All over the South one large clement of the voting cluss is very ignorant, and another element ts ver; ugiy—the first giving us Congressmen who cadetships and cominit bigamy; the other keeping ap a reign of terror wherever the strong hand 18 taken off. At the same time we have in our large cities a crowd of ignorant foreigners, who, under the Wad of demagogues, make good loca! government almost hopeless. It would be a great misfortune to add to these elements in the body politic the de- graded and incapabie people of St. Domingo. The St. Domingoan ts a good subject for missionary labor; pethaps he may ultimately become tit for American citwzeustup. But at present a political partnerstup with him would turt us a good deal more than it would help him. In the foregoing extract will be found some remarkable admissions, dropping, as they do, from the lips of so devout a negro worship- per as Henry Ward Beecher. The Observer regards asa ‘fatal choice” the acceptance of a lot of land from the city for charitable purposes, and argues that such donations ‘‘enact that very wrong which is now resisted in every country where a Church establishment is supported and the people are awake to their rights.” The Ob- server states that Rev.Dr. Foss writes that the utinisters of the Methodist Church are opposed to such grants. | The Independent reads a political lecture on the Sumner-Grant unpleasantness, pitches into the Baptists for accepting asa donation from the city government a site on which to erect a home for the aged poor, infirm and destitute members of their own denomina- tion (on the ground that it will furnish an excuse for similar appropriations for Roman Catholic charities), touches on the Pope's “imprisonment,” and has some long and wordy articles .on a variety of other topics. We are happy to notice that the Independent has adopted the advice of the Hxratp and expunged from its columns those objection- able advertisements we have before referred.to. The Hoangelist gives its usual extensive résumé of veligious news, and devotes a little space to the piety of the ex-Emperor Napoleon, who, it says, being now “out of business,” will have time to complete his great literary monument, ‘The Life of Cesar.” It thinks, however, that Napoleon’s fate has robbed what remains to be written of the work of nearly all its charm. The Hvangelist thinks that in ecclesiastical affairs the ex-Emperor also bas occasion for humiliating reflections. The Heangelist regards the real issue in the case of the Rev. Mr. Cheney, of Chicago, as simply this—that there is no place in the Episcopal Church for one who does not accept the doc- trine of baptismal regeneration. The Jewish Messenger gives the Hebrew race a first rate notice, and says it “‘never did consider it marvellous that a talented Jew should be elected Alderman, Mayor, Governor or Judge; it is so common a circumstance in Fronce, Belgium, Holland and Great Britain that the religion of the successful candidate is not mentioned. No sooner does Rome throw off the yoke of the Papacy than a Jew, lately a resident in the Ghetto, dares to become a candidate for Mayor of the Eternal City.” The Messenger also shows up sundry ludicrous mistakes made by some New York reporters in attempting to give an enterprising accouut of a late synagogue consecration, all which the said reporters should be thankful for. The Jewish Times has a lengthy and well-digested dissertation on the subject of reform in Juda- ism in Germany and America, The Hebrew Leader draws @ very neat parallel between Judaism and Christianity. The Mreeman's Journal (Catholic) has a characteristic and powerful article showing “Why the Vicar of Christ is Suffering.” It feels justified in saying that the demonstra- tions in favor of the Pope will accomplish mpeh, They are,” it continues, “reviving the Catholic spirit and making Catholics more alert in the public profession of thelr faith.” The Tublet (Catholic) keeps up its tilt with the Christian Intelligencer. The Methodist is replete with its asual amount ef judicious articles. We are glad to welcome to our pious bnreau our venerable contemporary, the Zion's Herald, the organ of the New ‘England Con- ferences of the Methodist Episcopal Church. It looks as fresh and young as it did nearly half a century ago. It comes to us, however, by mistake, having been directed to another Office ; but it is nevertheless welcome. Keep on sending it, Brother Synonym and co- laborer in the field of Zion. From among our religious contemporaries we gather nothing of special importance fur- ther than knowing that the spirit of grace ani- mates their columns, and that their teachings, in the main, are good and wholesome. The Glory of St. Patrick’s Days It appears that we are to have a more gor- geous pageant on St. Patrick's Day this year than ever before. There can be no objection to this if the exiled sons of Erin do not block up the public highways too much to the detri- ment of business. We do not approve of public processions in the streets, but of course, if one class of people is entitled to the right, so is another. Our Irish fellow citizens have always claimed possession of the city on the lth of March, and nobody seems disposed to dispute it with them. On this occasiun, how- ever, report says that s novel feature is to be introduced into the spectacle—namely, the prominence of the orange or saffron color in the decorations. This tint we know has been looked upon with traditionary hostility by most hot-blooded Irishmen ever since King William the Third of England, with the unfortu- nate title of *‘ Prince of Orange,” whipped the adherents of King James at the battle of the Boyne. But the orange color was, after all, the favorite with the ancient princes and chiefs of ancient [reland. The saffron cloak and shirt decorated the forms of its sovereigns and nobles, and was conspicuous in the uniform of its soldiers, There is ne reason, then, why the orange and the green should not be iaterwoven in the procession on St. Patrick’s Day without any broken heads or bitter thoughts coming out of the innovation. The Irish societies who honor the day with an anoual dinner are preparing for a grand celebration this year, stimulated, perhaps, by the presence of the released prisoners. The ‘*Friendly Sons of St. Patrick” will take their modest feast, as they have done for nearly a century, and will mutually admire each other in the usual fraternal fashion. The ‘‘ Knights of St. Patrick” will enjoy their Lenten fare on Delmonico’s piscatorial bill, the festival this time falling on Friday, in Lent. The Brooklyn “*St. Patrick’s Society,” the ‘‘ Knights” of Staten Island and similar societies in Orange county and Jersey will all indulge in banquets, Upon the whole, next Friday promises to be a great day for the orange and green, provided they wave together. THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT. Tactics of the Opposition—The Education and Marriage Law Questions—Expected As- sault on tho Treaty of Paris. TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALO, ONDON, March 11, 1871. The tone of the English Parliament remains fever- ish and tending towards a change of government by Means of persistent and animated assults on the ministerial policy and position. The tories carry on @ sort of guerilla war; petty in each attack, but ex- haustive to the ministerial enemy for the reason thar It necessitates @ continual state of walchtuiness on the Treasury benches in order to meet it effectu- ally each evening. In continuation of my cable report of the proceed- ings of the Legislature for the HERALD I have to in- form you to-day that during tne session of the House of Commions last night Mr. Forster devoted several hours to a defence of the Education bill, obtaining at the ciose a large majority for the bill. The bill periaitting marriage to a@ deceased wife's sister was aiso passed. It Is announced that the conservatives are prepar- ing a resolution for mtroduction in the House of ‘Commons to rescind the first and second articles of the declaration of the Paris Congress of 1856, con- cerning neutral flags and privateering.

Oatside of the doors of the Engiteh Parliament the movement for the attainment of stili rurther mea- sures of democratic reform is maintained with con- siderable vigor by the masses, In this city tast night Mr, John Stuart Mill presided ata meeting of the Workmen's Peace Society, called in St. James’ Hall for the purpose of uttering a protest against “extravagant army expenditures,” Mr. Mill, in his remarks in reference to the govern- ment army bill, praised the section providing for the abolition of the system of the purchase of com- missions. He preferred, he said, “toassimulace the army to that of Switzerland, rather than that of Prassta."" A resolution was passed condemning the proposed increase in army expenses. Many mombers ot Parliument attended the meet- ing. SMALLPOX. Quarantine at Hunter’s Point—Vigorous Re- sistunce on the Part of the Residents. Yesterday morning the carpenter having the order of the Board of Health to build a frame around the neighborhoed infected with smalipox reportea to Anthony Meagher, the chief health police officer of Long Island City, that the occupants of the tene- ment house in which there are seven smallpox cases offered resistance and drove him away. Mr. Meagher immediately obtained assistance and pro- ceeded to the scene of disturbance, where a number of women, armed with all manner of household and kitchen utensils, were disputing the erection of the frame. After great trouble and exertions, and not @ few broken leads, the order was finally carried out, and the dangerous locality is effectually shut in from the outside world. The buildings are situ- ated at the foot of Third street, near the Long island Railroad. Several attempts have been made within the past few days to land at Hunter's Point for interment the bodies of persous who have died at Blackweil’s Island of simalipox, but they have been driven back by the gnard stationed along the wharves by the Board of Health of Long Jsland City to prevent the landing of these bouies and the imtroduction aud spread of this disease. Yesterday one of the guard was compelled to draw hig pistol and threaten to shoot one of these parties, who resisted his authority and seemed derermined to lana the body he had in charge, but he was ually courpeticd to return.

Advices from Paris dated this afternoon and evening have been received, and are forwarded for publication in the HeRaLp, THE SITUATION AT MONTMARTRE. The news is somewhat conflicting, A despatch dated this eveniag says that, the in- surgent National Guards still hold possession of 417 pieces of cannon. There is nothing new to reportas to-the situation in Montmartre and the other faubourgs. A COMPROMISE WITH THE AUTHORITIES, On the other hand a telegram from Paris in the afternoon, after reporting that all is quiet in Montmartre, says that the National Guards return the cannon in their possession to the government on the conditions that their or- ganization is not to be dissolved and the con- tinuance of the allowance to cach member of one frane and a half per day until work is re- sumed, In accordance with this arrangement the National Guards have already commenced to park the cannon in the Garden of the Lux- embourg. A CONFIRMATION, Referring to the same subject the Zimes special correspondent at Paris telegraphs that the National Guards holding Montmartre have surrendered the cannon held by them, and that the remainder will be formally summoned on Saturday to surrender all their arms, In case of a refusal their pay is to be stopped, REVIEW OF THE GARRISON OF PARIS, The Paris despatch dated in the evening states that General Vinoy to-day reviewed a corps of forty thousand men from the Army of the Loire, who form the new garrison of Paris, G@ARDES MOBILE LEAVING PARIS, General Von Moltke has made a demand for the departure from Paris of all unarmed Mo- bile Guards exceeding the authorized garrison of forty thousand men, Forty thousand Mo- biles have left Paris in accordance with the demand.
