The three presenting Bishops were Bp. Meade
OF Virginia, Otey of Tennessee, and Elliott Of
Georgia. They were debarred from voting. The
eight Bishops who were most resolutely opposed
to the accused insisted on the sentence of deposit
ton; but Bishops Eastburn, Brownell and Hen
shaw were opposed to this, and the sentence Of
indefinite suspension was substituted. BY this
decision, Bishop Onderdonk is now suspended from
the exercise Of all the ministerial and episcopal
functions There is no appeal from this judgment.
The Creates possible excitement prevails through
out this Diocese on the subject. With the excep-
ton Of Drs Anthon and Smith, and very few
Others, the clergy sustain the Bishop, and the peo-
pie are also equally warm and enthusiastic in
their support. Some demonstration of the OPT
MON Of the Diocese may be expected immedi-
ately, and, the Bishops who voted in the minor
ity comprise some Of the abest leaders in the Epis
copal Church, and represent most influential por.

repetition of those violent feuds which, In past
ages. have distracted and rent in pieces the Church
-feuds growing out Of still more trivial causes,
such for instance as that celebrated controversy
about the Greek particle. All sorts Of rumors are
aoat relative to the results likely to follow, but
in day or two we will be able to give some in
teresting and accurate information on the subject.
THE ANTI-RENT EXCITEMENT IN THIS CITY.-We
give in ouI paper this morning full report of the
proceedings at the extraordinary meeting Of the
Ant-Rent sympathizers at Croton Hall last even
ing this manifestation do not awaken the whole
community to proper sense of the duty which
every man who respects the laws and regards his
own individual safety and interest is now called on
to discharge nothing canlarouse them The fruits OF
despcable and criminal trucking to the mob-spirit
of the anti-rent districts, Of which both political
parties were guilty before the election, are now
beginning to show themselves. Here we have in
the very metropolis Of the county resolutions passed
by large meeting, sympathizng with an insurrec-
tion, In which the blood of unofending citizens
has been openly shed, and the action of the author
ities.to suppress it, impudently and violently de-
nounced. II this spirit of lawlessness and rebellion
be not at once crushed by the most decided mea-
sures, we may well burn our statute books, and
quietly vesgn ourselvesto the reign of anarchy and
blood.
EXTRAORDINARY ABOLITION NovEMENTs.-We
have number Of curious article to publish, de-
veloping the purposes and views OF the abotionsts
at the North in reference to their further progress
which are 30 remarkable and significant that we
shall endeavor to find room for them next week.
They will consist of very extraordinary letter
from Alvan Stewart, Esq, of this city, and peti-
ton, which has been in circulation in Massachu-
sets, calling for dissolution of the Union-show
ing that the abolition party Of over Co. 900 men is
determined to carry ON the agitation of their
single idea even tn the dissolution of the Union
MuMcAL.-Antognini has gone to Boston, where
he sings tonight at the Philharmonic Concert,
His "Album" contains, not gems from the Italian
opera, but the gems Of his own compositions. The
talents Of this gentleman as a composer, are well
known, ;and this work is highly creditable mon
ument Of his genius and industry. 1t is, as we said
rapidly becoming very popular.

former piece is only laid aside to be resumed at

The THKATRRs.-There was in very truth MOTH

mark, if we except the solemnly funny contrast be-
tween the noisy, rolhcking, laughing audiences at
the uptown theatres, and the lugubrous and dole.

ragged with great fury in certain quarters, may be
regarded as settled, at least as far as the exclu-
sives of these houses are concerned. In other re-
specs, there is nothing in the conduct or polty of
theatricals at the present moment calling for par
ticular notice.
The ITALIAN OPsRA-THK NEW SRAsoN.-The
subscription list tor the opera season Of twenty
four nights is now open, and ID rapidly filing up
over hundred names having been received in
single night. The present holders Of the seats by
the season have politely consented to give them
up and 50 into new balloting with the rest-so
every one who subscribes now will have chance
for the choice Of seats.
Every thing at present looks well for the opera,
and the new season promises to be decidedly and
brilliantly successful We trust it may be 80, and
that nothing will occur to darken the present favor
able aspect Of affairs.
