Possession of n Pew i'm Fredericks-

FREDERICKSBURG, May 21.-Thc congrc-
cation of the Episcopal Church in this
place were somewhat excited this morning
by the appearance of two negroes in the
body of the church, and their taking pos
session of one of the pcwS. Their names
arc Harris, and they are brothers. One OF
them is called a doctor, and belongs to the
order of quacks.
The c0lored Serton Immediately elected
them from the pew, directing them to the
gallery, where much better people than
themselves, of their own color, were seated
like quiet and orderly people, as they were.
But these HARNESSES, with an air of offended
dignity, as if the gallery was not good
enough, and its occupants were not fit as
sociatcs for them, refused to go there, and
left the church. These dainty persons will
probably try the Civil Rights bill.

Proceedings in the Old School ASSEM-.
blythe Case of the Louisville Pres
hyfprX.

81. Lotus, No., May 2l.-Thc proceed
ing> Of the old School Assembly OF the
PRESBYTERIAN Church to-day consisted
mainly of the presentation and reading
the report Of the committee on the Lou
i>vilc PrcSbytcry case.
The report reviews the declaration and
testimony put forth by that body: conSid-
crS it an evidence Of organized conspiracy
against the Church, and concludes with Il
series of resolutions which declare the
Prcsbvtcry Of Louisville dissolved.
\ new prcshytcry is constituted, to be
. called by the same name, occupy the same
territory, and have care OF the same
churchcs--the said prcsbytcry to be COM
posed Of 50 many ministers and elders as
shall subscribe to the diSapproval OF the
Declaration and Testimony OF the Louis
Vile Prc>bytcry," and obey the General
Assembly.
All ministers of the late Louisville Pres
hvtcrv who do not apply for admission to
the new PrcSbytcry and subscribe 10 the
di>approval within two months of its orga-
uization, their pastoral relations under the
care Of this Assembly shall be dissolved.
The Assembly diSclaims amy intention or
disposition to disturb the existing relations
of the churches or of ruling elders or pri-
waite members, but rather desires to pro-
tcct them III the enjoyment Of their rights
and privileges in the churches of their
choice against men who would Seducc them
into an abandonment of the heritage OF
their fathers.
Dr.. +. r. Humphreys offered SubStl-
tut" strongly condcmning the . declara-
ton and testimony" and urging the Louis
Vile Prcsbytcry to torbear further agita-
ton Of the subject, to return To its loyalty
TO the Church, and To report to the next
General Assembly its action in the pre-
misses, such action to he then decided upon
by the General Assembly.
At the evening session, DIR. Thomas made
strong speech in favor Of the report OF
the committee occupying the whole time
till the adjournment.
The Louisville commissioners declined an
invitation by the Assembly to appear and
defend the action OF their Prcsbytcry.

In New York on Saturday the gold

aggravated by the fact that in the resolution
