Tt would be a very fortunate accident if some people should lose their tempers and never find them again. Every man Is said to have three characters—the one he professes to havo, the one he himself thinks he has aud the one be reatiy has, The last is not always cqual to the other two, Some of the papers say that General Newton blew up Hell Gate and tho Fourth Commandment at the samo time. es mo to sit in the next pew to 1 man for five years and uever speak to nim. It costs nothing to nod agood morning toa neighbor. Christians wil) not ve introduced to each other in heaven, and if they should happen to shake hands before they ges there no harm would result. Tho man who boasts that he has mo creed at all is generally more bigoted than the severest churchman. Though he belongs to a class that in Agreed in nothing bat to abolish, Subvert, extirpate and demoiish, stl, unless you do thus agree with bim in nothing be excommanicates you with tho fervor and zeal of a Paritan. .o pretend to be free from all trammels is sometimes but a cover for the tightest chains of all. Dr. Talmage began his sermon awhile ago by say- tng, “Brethren, I propose to talk to you this morning about a man who had a hole in bis head.” The people thought at first that be was speaking of himself, bus it turned out to be only Goliath. Moody and Sankey hago laid out a bard wint work. They are to undertake the annibilation of the materialism of Chicago and the rationalism of Boston. If they succeed the jabors of Hercules will have lost their renown. Some clergymam bas been intemperate enough to de. clare that when one goes tothe Centennial he 18 to be excused if he sipsclaret instead of the water which no one bas dared to look at through a microscope. The Tesult is that the religious newspapers are holding an inquest on bis mavgied remains, They insist’ that any oue who can endure Crotou and hold his te-to-tal- jam intact ought not to yield to the tascinatiogs of Centennial tippling. They say that if this recipe is followed the clergy will soon be coming back from the City of Brotherly Love singing the song of Hood’s sailor :— God knows if 1 shall e’er retara, In comturt to be lulled; But if do get back to Port, Pray, time Lave it mulled. Dr. Lankester has hit Spiritualism a sound British blow, Slado’s slaio has fotlowed Flint’s miraculous teapot into the oblivion of infamy. ‘You see,” said Slade, “the slate has been cleaned on both sides,’’ “Assurediy,”’ rephed Lank ir, with the affability of agentiemap. ‘Well, now I will place it under the table for a mini and then the spirits will write, There! They are about to begin.” But before they began Lankester sald, “I would like to seo that slate once more.” “Not for world: replied Slade, “because you know the conaitiofia would be broken and some- thing terrible might bappen ” Lankester took bold ‘of the slate, pulled it from its hiding piace, and, be- hold, before the spirits had touched the pencil it was filled with writiug. It is a funny world, and people like to be humbugged at a guinoa apiece. Spiritu: ism makes revelations, bui bere isa revelation ab@ut Spiritualism which wiil pot be quite satisfactory to those whose only evidences of Curistianity are afforded by a Upping table and a mumbling medium. Most of the religious papers this week continue to make reference to what they cail Mr. Huxley’s failure. Puble expectation was nover quite so high as when it was hinted ip literary circles that the conceit would be taken out of tho human race afior the explosion of Mr, Huxley's dynamite.! JNot a man who had any respoct for the coal regions ur the cretaceous system ventured to express an opinioa that ho was made by the Lord, bocause the learned Professor could show, and moro than that, had come across the ocean for the very pur- pose of ghowing, that every ono's ancestor was a quadrupe: The first lecture passed off with tho remark, ‘Well, ho's only wading up pow, but he will fire bis Swamp Angel next time.’? The second Jecture was delivered, and every one felt that matters were getting pretty hot, Something hung fire, but no one could tell what, However, the third lecture would certafnly burst like an earthquake under our feet, and in the clodds of dust above the ruin we should seo Moses retiring into the background and tho manly form of Huxley taking bis piace. But, alas! tho third lecture consisted of the remark by the potent scientist that if that long looked-for *‘tifth toe’’ could be found, then man would step down and out; ‘but,’ he con- tinued, ‘it has not yet been found, and I don’t really The next morning Professor Huxley took passage for Europe; but Mosos camo back to hig old position and still insists that he and not John Milton wrote the book of Genesis. George W. Blunt, when speaking of the explosion of Hell Gate on Sunday, gave the pleasing information that *he does not belong to the school who believe in scoluing a cat for killing a rat on the Sabbath,’ whero- upon the New York Observer asks, with charming natveté, “Ia: there any such school??? However this quarrel between the Blunt critic and the Primo minis- ter may end, we have this satistaction, at least, that if Hell Gate was the rat in the story and General Newton the cat the arrangements of tho latter were purr-tect, MINISTERIAL MOVEMENTS. ‘i UNITARIAN, Two Roman Catholic priests have recently joined the English Unitarians—Fathors Suffield and Hargraves. Tho latter has just been called to the charge of the prominent Unitarian congregation at Leeds, whose pulpit has been made vacant by the call of the incum- bent to a London professorship.

Of the churches 215 are set down as having pastors and 147 as without pastors, Of the ministers 218 are settied and 182 unsettled, The English Unitarian Pocket Almanac for 1876 records the names of 3i8 ministers, of whom 279 are settled and the remaining 69 are classed as not settled, superannuated or engaged in other occupations, REVORMED DUTC To-day has been appointed by the General Synod of tho (Dutch) Reformed Chureh asa day of thanksgiv” ing.

SYNAGOGUE WORSHIP, RYOLUTION OR CBEATION—THE END OF PER- FECTION FOUND ONLY IN GOD—SERMON BY REY. DR, HUEVPSCH. The Rev. Dr, Huebsch preached to a large congrega- tion yesterday in the synagogue, in Lexington avenue and Fifty-flith street. His toxt was Psalms, cxix., 96— “T have seen an end of all perfection; but thy com- mandment 1s exceeding broad.” In many of his sacred songs, said the Doctor, the sweet singer of Israel gives utterance to nie profound Jove for the sanctuary of God, Asthe bart panted after the water brook: panted his soul atter the living God. Ho is greatly ro juiced when others say, “Let us walk to the house of the Lord.” In the courts of His house the psalmist would love to dwell forever. Tho pith of his inspired poetry is, “How amiable are thy tabernacies, O Lord of hosts! my soul longeth, yea, even panieth for tho courts of the Lord; my hears aud my flesh crietn out tor the living Goa?” This panting of bis heart, this Jonging of bis soul, however, is not an indefinite, un- conscious and dim sentiment, of which be can give no account to himself, why and wherelore he panteth and longeth. The chief musician Was at the same time a profound thinker. Read his descriptions of the ma vels of nature; earth aud heaven, land and sea, are the objects of his close investigation, and what he says abvut them in bis songs shows that he knows moro than be utters, and it is this knowledge of paturo thas | lends him siep by step to the reverent and {aithiv! recognition of uatare’s God. There are men, and they are go DuMeroUs In these days that we may term thew a class, Who 00k upon science as upon the executioner’s sword, and upon taith as the poor condemued, and the great Work of the former is to inflict the tatal stroke upon the jatter, When we had, a short timo ago, tho repowned and devote: pounder of the theory of evolution in our midst, this class greeted bis presence as the signal of battle against religion, and rogarded his lectures as the song 01 songs of scop- ticism and unochef. How far they are justified in their view or whether their superficial opinion about the conflict between scienee and true religion ts shared by the genuine champions of scientific progress or not we may best learn from the words of the sume man whom they regard as one of the banner bearers of modern science. The same renowned professor to | whom we listened a few weeks ago, has in one of his former lectures the following remarkable passage “all human inquiry must siop s»mewhero: kuowledge and ail our inv yond the limits set by the finite and restricted charac- ter of our facuities, or DESTROY THR KNDLESS UNKNOWS, which accompanies like 1s shadow the endless proces- sion of phenomena. 50 far as ican venture to oiler an opinion on such & matter, the purpose oi: cur being in oxistence, the highest object that human beings can set belore themselves, is pot the pursuit of auy uch chimera as the annibilation of the unknown, but itis simply the unWearied endeavor to remove its boundaries a littie tart from our little sphere of action.” This modest acknowledgment opens the dpor to religiouand makes its revelations the precious complement of all human knowledge. The gap of the endiess unknown can be overbridged only by the in- telligenee of an Allwise Creator, ant the livtie sphere of buman action can be enlargea and ensobled only by the recognition of a Divine law, which defines clearly the pur; of our being in existence, the highest object Nat aman beings can set belore them, which is, to walk after tno Lord our God, to recognize Him as the highest ideal in rom the fountain ne Word, Secular of moral purity and to queneh our spiritual thirst the living waters which omens i from head of wisdom, knowledge embraces finite ‘though tt sheds light into our souls it sty us in re- yard to the endless unknown. Spiritual knowledge, however, removes the barriers, furnishes the soul with wings to goar high above our little planet to celestial spheres, where she is allowed to see Hin who is the Endiess One, and while contemplating Him she becomes imbued with joyous satistuction that she too is endless, being the image of Him who This is the philosophy of our Psalmist; uch ere conclusions he draws from what he knows: about nature ‘Forever, O Lord,” be deciat by word 1s settled in heaven,” he shows how God bi ab- lished the earth and she abideth; bow ali natural things continue according te the ordinance of their Creator, for all are His servants, Without intelligence, with- out treo will they necessarily jollow the path pre- serived tor them, There, however, if ma 1 do not think that the Psalmist looked upoa man a: TRE PRODUCT OF RYOLUTION; but it makes no difference whether be did or not. Man at his time was just tho same as now, eudowed with the samo facuities, sabject to the same short. comings and enjoying the apiritual preierences, Man with bis free will, with his capacity of spiritual growth, with his cen- triiugal inclination, which draws him from ihe path of salvation, Man, as he was then and as he is now, needed aud necds more than the mechanical law by which the rest ol nature is govorned. He needs a spectal code for his soul, or elso the essential part which makes Lim man beoumes overshadowed and vic- timized by that inferior part which he shares with the reat of visible nature, “Unless thy law had been my delight,” said Dawid, “1 should long since have been |, logt in ty affliction, soul light, joy and ness, | dreari nd dwinding down to a mer shadow. Necessary as the knewledge of tho thing: around us ja, 1b cannot compensate for the knowledge of that which works in us and He who rules abovs us, Man's soul with ji# intimate relation to God isa specialty; and, theretore, periect as the laws of nature are, they do not cover the ground of our spiritual life. We heed a apecial law—we need religion, “1 have seen an end to all perfection, but thy commandment is exoreaingly broad,” Let the house of God be what 1t is destined to be, U NEW YORK HERALD, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1876*-QUADRUPLE SHEET. THE COURTS. The Sweeny Seven Million Dollar and ‘weed One Mi'lion Dollar Suits. LAWYERS AND THEIR CLIENTS INSTRUCTIONS. Clearing the Criminal Calendars of Homicide Cases. Two of tho memorable ‘Ring’ suite—one the suit against Peter B, Sweeny to recover $7,000,000 and the other the $1,000,000 suit against William M. Tweed— are set down for trial to-morrow betore Judge Weat- brook. At present it appears to be highly problemati- cal whether either suit will be brought to trial. As for Mr. Sweeny, it is understood that he s#il is a sojourner inthe gay French capttal, notwithstanding the an- nouncement made long since that ho was both willing and anxious to meet in open court the charge of being a peculator on the eity treasury. For tbat matter, however, if there is to bo a trial it would probably make but iittle difter- ence whether he was here to answer in propria per- gona or defended through counsel, the general pre- sumption, though, being that, not having put in an Appearance up 40 this timo, be does not propose to do so and in the result joopardize his possible persoval liberty, In the caso of Tweed tt is suggested that in ‘View of his speedy return to this country it would bo only fair to give the “old man’ a chance to suggest the line of cross-examination to be taken by his coun- sel, The contra supposition is that he will have more ecrious matters to occupy his attention on his return again within the jurisdiction of our civil and criminal puris, as the indictments for forgery threaten hi transfor to Sing Sing. Again, is 1s surmied that he may unbosom himself in a way will direct the shafts of justice against other parties who have long been reposing in fancied security that their participa- tion in plundering the city exchequer will guever bo brought to light. There is aiso the hypotfesis that what E, A. Woodward, the great ‘go betwoen,”? may have to say in regard to tho old Ring transactions may put an entirely new complexion on the whole case. SETTLEMENT OF SUITS, A motion was heard. yosterday before Judge Barrett, in Supreme Court, Chambers, involving the important question whether a lawyer, refusing to follow aclient’s instructions, has a right to keep the party sued in jal on account of non-payment of his counsel fees, The suit out of which the motion grew was brought by Wilham 8. Siater against Thomas Ogg Shaw, President of the Rolling Mi!! and Vermuyea Paint Company. Last spring, following the bringing of the suit, Shaw was arrested, and, in default of $100,000 ball, commit- ted to Ludiow Street Jail. Subsequently the matter was settled between Slater and Shaw, Mr. Siater’s ai- torneys, J. H. & W. L. Venidergeo, deniot the right of tho parties to settle, claiming that a charge of some $13,000 ‘counsel ices was a lien im refusing to discontinue od also in keeping Shaw in jail until 4 A motion was a Compton and Root, on be- aw, to vacate the order of arrest, based on the affidavit of Will jartlett, Slater's attorney, in fact, showing that a settiement had been made be- tween Slater and Shaw; that Siater desired that Shaw should be dischargod front jatl, and had expressed his willingness to pay the Vandergees all, and more than all, to recover under their contract with Slater. Tho Vandergees, in opposition to the motion, insisted that they bad a lien which entitied them to keop Shaw in jail. Judge Barrett deciaed that thoy had not, and forthwith vacated the order of arrost, upoa which Shaw was at once released frem jail. THE FIVE POINTS MURDER.

Michael Sheehan, alias Shoony Mike, was yerterday arrested by Captain Potty, of the First precinct, on suspicion of being concerned in tho robbery of the store of Frank Horton, No. 42 Fulton street, on the Ist of October. It will be remembered that on last Sunday morning the premises were burglariously ¢n- tered from a vacant building next door by means of Dreaking through the party wall. A large sate, which contained watches and jewelry valued at $63,000, was pried open and the contents were carried off. Captain Petty obtained a description of a man who had been seen loitering around tho neighborhood, ang on the strength of it arremed the prisoner. Rudolph Richards, an employé in @ restaurant across the street from the use which robbed, identified Sheehan as tho party whom be had seen acting in a suspicious manner the bight previous to the burglary. On being searched tion a gold watch and chain ° P which one of Mr. Horton's em- ‘68 recognized as being part of the stolen property. ice Morgan remanied the prisoner to the castouy of the police in order that further evidence may be ob- tamed against hin, HOBOKEN’S BROKEN BANK. A RECEIVER APPOINTED—GREAT INDIGNATION AMONG THE DEPOSITORS, ‘The excitement in Hoboken was very great yester- day concerning the suspension of the Hoboken Home- stead and Banking Association. General indignation exists against the managemont of the concern, which is said to have been of the most reckless and culpable ebaractor, Tne following is a correct list of the oificials:—John Von Duisburg, President; L. Etting- haus, Vico President; A. Jordan, Secretary; F. Witt, Troasurer; Charios Spielman, Sr., Trustee and Man- ager; Roberts Werner, G. Falck, W. Vou Hafen and F, Erb, trustees. Last night a Hanaup reporter called upon ‘the Prestdent, who made the following state meat, which must be taken for what it is worth:— “The total abilities to depositors are, | believe, from $35,000 to $40,000. The assets I estimate wt $50,000, They consiat of real estate in New Jersey and $10,000 worth of imported Rhine wines, Matters have been managed fairly, but we bave had to fight against great diffleuities, Five years ago we had $75,000 ueposit and recently we had but half that sum. | 1 myself have deposited about $500. Mr. Charles Spielman hus man- aged the whole concern. His son in New York, who has $7,000 deposited, has put an injunction on the bank through his counsel, not to recetve or pay out moneys. The assets of the Homestead Assoctation grew trom $13,363 in 1870 to $37,351 In 1873, since which time no statements have been made public. The Homestead Association was chartered by the Legisiaturo of New Jersey in February, 1869, and subsequently its charter was amended to allow it to carry on a banking business, No state- ments wero ever puvlisnea, The sharcholdersof tho Homestead Associution will probably lose $22,000. You must wait till tho receiver appointed gives to the Hexatp a statement of the accounts. His name is Mr, Michael Sandford, ex-Prosidont of tho Union Bank, Jorsey City.” The general impression among tho victims of this institation ts that the accounts of the association aro ina perfect chaos aud that the assets are compara- tively worthless. IMPROMPTU PISTOLLING. Michael Neary, aged twonty-one, of No. 456 West Forty-second street, employed as a watchman by the Hadson River Railroad on their oil docks at the foot of Sixty-fth street, North River, yosterday afternoon saw Jobn Hogan sauntering along the dock he was watching. Hogan, who is but sixteon years old, lives in Sixty-eignth street,between Tenth and Eleventh avenues, and bears a good reputation. Neary ordered bim to go away in an Imperious and insulting tone, Hogan hesitated to obey the order. He did not move off fast enough to suit Mr, Neary’s ideas, and the lat! drew asmall revolver, shooting Hogan in the back. The wounded boy was taken to the Ninety-ninth Street Hospital, where his injurios were pronounced serious. Neary was arrested and locked up in tho fhirty-first precinct station houso. “ST.

A fair given by the ladies of St Stepben’s Roman Catholic church, which was inaugurated on Thursday evening, promises to be one of the most enjoyable ones of the fall season, It 1s entirely managed by the ladies of Rev.
