Church RIoT.-At the commencement of the
religious exercises in the German church, situated
at the corner of Smthfield and Sixth streets, on
yesterday, the entire congregation was thrown into
confusion and excitement, by the awess conduct of
persons, both male and female connected with the
church The Rev. Mr.. K9hler, pastor, had Just
finished the reading of the Holy Scriptures, when
man named Demlar stood up and denounced the
minister in a most violent manner. " Dorm mith
Robesp,erre; dorm Nth the dog domn wnh The
sonEkhter." We're the wild and extravagant ex-
pressions uttered. Women next seized the clergy
man and tore his coat. All was confusion and
disorder IN a moment The congregation rushed
INTO the street, when the police from the Mayors
office arrived and took the disurbers of the public
peace into custody. 1t is said that schism exists
III this Lutheran church, not OH doctrinal points,
but for men. One party favors the present in
cumbent, who is said to be a most excellent and
pions divine the other party are DESTROYS to have
reinstated the clergyman, who formerly of1iciated
among them and out of = mere unimpor,ant affair.
the worst passions Of the human heart are called
into requsition, the peace of religious community
is interrupted, and the laws of the land are out
ragged. No correct citizen will excuse the infamous
conduct of persons engaged in the work Of assault
and battery in the body of Christian church, and
that too, upon the person of the pastor The quar-
rels of church members abont men, should not be
Permitted to disturb the public peace and desecrate
the services of the Sabbath day. We anticipate
the full penalty of the law, without mercy, upon
the church rioters.-P igsburg Mercury.

MOBILE RAcEs.-The Herald and Tribune fur

course on Tuesday last. The competitors were,
Emy-(untrained) grey mare, half sister to the
renowned Lady Suffolk land very like her)-a bay
horse called Trustee, and the well known Jack
Frost, or Telegraph. The mare was the favorite
and had the advantage in condition. The first
heat was a spirited contest between the bay and
the grey, but as is not unusual the grey mare
proved the better horse. But the time, 2:55 proved
that they were both kept busy. Telegraph was
shut out The second heat was even more inter-
estng, for entering the last quarter after two or
three breaks the pony got and kept the lead homs
In the third heat the little bay was beaten hand
somely before he reached the draw gate and after
more and greater changes in betting than in many
thousand dollar race, Emily was declared the
winner.

RUSSIAN LADIES' SCHooL-In St. Petersburg
there are institutions for the education of young
ladies, who are, for the most part, daughters Of
mobiles. When was in Russia, the Emperor was
so kind to issue orders that should see every
thing that wished. Public buildings, schools, hos
pitfalls, prisons, etc, were all thrown open, and |
gained great deal of information from them. |
visited in st. Petersburg the largest female instn-
ton in the world. The building was surrounded
by wall, which enclosed eleven acres, and il was
then attended by $50 young ladies', $50 the daugh-
tiers of mobiles, and 300 the daughters of commoners
They were kept in separate parts of the building,
and never met, except in the church, which was in
front of the building. The instruction was equally
good throughout; but each part had its teachers.
spent whole day in going through it, for they
insisted that should see every thing: The insti-
tuition Is under the patronage of the Empress her
self, who takes great interest in it, There were
classes in German and French, and the instruction
in all branches was very thorough. After had
gone through the building, dined with them. 1t
was beautiful sight to see four hundred and fifty
young ladies come together at one table, and at
given signal chanting uniformly short prayer.
After the dinner, which, though simple, was excel
lent, they assembled in the parlor, and sang and
played for about hour. The Russians have
some beautiful national airs, and they were exc.
cuted by these young ladies in very superior
manner. / think have never heard better sing
ing than did at that time, and the song, " God
the Emperor" is set to perhaps one of the
finest airs that exists This institution was the
whole empire in miniature, and included inhabit-
ants of every part of it. There were young ladies
from Georgia, Circassia, the Tarars and kaimucks,
and even the daughter of Mongolian chief, who
was most beautiful singer, and who bore the ap-
pearance of an American Indian girl in every par
ticnar. l could not help remarking the admirable
manners and perfect training which these young
ladies exhibited, testifying impatience nor dis
pleasure at any thing which was required of them.
