Christian Union,

The Christian Union denomination of Chris
tians is an organization that grew out of the
intolerant spirit of party hatred and bigotry
that got possession of most of the sectarian
denominations of the northern states from six
to eight years ago. The "comeouters" have
generally been Methodists, though there is
goodly number from the Baptist, Congrega-
tiOnal, Presbyterian, and other denominations.
The seceders have never differed an iota with
their brethren of the denominations from
which they have withdrawn, as to any matter
of religious doctrine, faith or practice; nor
have some that were expelled from the old
denominations been found guilty of any de-
linquency save only that they differed with
the majority as to party politics. So crazy and
intolerant had most Of the religious sects be-
come in reference to politics that to be DEM
ocrat became a matter of church discipline
rendering the organization of the new denom-
nation an absolute necessity. 1t is thus that
this most unnatural mixing up of every day
politics with religion led to the multiplication
OF sects and the division Of the body of
Christ t--A
The new "sect," if such it can justly be
called, recently held convention at Clinton
ILL.,, and from its proceedings we learn that
the denomination in this State is in flourish
ing condition, numbering about 5000 men,
bers and seventy preachers. Prominent gen
tlemen representing the Methodist Episcopal
Church South were present, and the conven-
ton, believing it would add strength to their
denomination, and put in the field more min
listers, Of which they are in need, dropped the
name of Christian Union, and agreed to be
known as the Episcopal Methodist Church,
the southern representatives agreeing to adopt
the same name, and to be no longer known as
the Methodist Episcopal Church South

Illinois Legislature.

The general expectation that the legislature
of this State, which met in additional extra
session on Monday to dispose of the Peniten-
tiary question, would, after the report of the
committee that visited Joliet should be read
and its recommendations received, have an
easy time of it and dispose of its business in
day or two, is anything but realised. 1t
turns out as indeed was most natural to con-
lecture, that this whole business Of surrender.
ing the Penitentiary lease was mere dodge to
get another gigantic grab at the treasury,
though the precise way in which it is to be
done hangs in doubt. The legislature, which
seems to have fallen into the hands of three or
four opposing rings, is having a furious
wrangle over the NATTER and threaten to con-
sumo week or more before it can come to a
decision. One "ring," which seems to have
the investigating committee in its interest, pro-
poses to drop the whole system of leasing the
Penitentiary, and turn it over to the Commits
Aioners, who are to run the institution for the
benefit of the State. How much they expect
the State to make by the operation is shown
by the fact that their bill proposes an appro-
4,riation Of 100000 for the first year. and
100000 for each year thereafter to run the
Penitentiary, when by the leasing system it
has cost nothing Another ring wants to
lease the Penitentiary at cost to the State of
about $40, 900 year, but the lessees to have
the privilege Of removing one-third of the
prisoners to Alton Others to Athens &c. This
plan is evidently to get possession of all the
stone quarrics in the State from which the
stone for the State House is to be taken, and
thus to come big grab on the treasury in the
way of furnishing stone. And SO there is a
third and fourth ring each in its turn
medtating some grand swindlc. If there is
single member of the legislature who is not
owned body and breeches by one Or the other
OF these rings, it would take more than a
Diogenes lantern to find him. And such is
the legislature to wllich the interests of the
tax payers of Illinois are committed. green

Besides these bodies, numerous individual
masons, from all parts of northern Illinois, join

half mile in length, and numbering in the
neighborhood, we should say, of 1000 masons.

it must also be noted that the Joliet Cornet Band
and the Peru Masonic Band had appropriate
places in the procession, and throughout the

Extra Session of Congress-.

1t seems settled that the country is to be
afflicted with an extra session of Congress in
July. The dispatches yesterday leave no
doubt about there being quorum of members
present in both houses next Wednesday.
When congress adjourned in April the
agreement was to meet again in July, if the
discoveries of the impeachment committee
should be such as 10 give hope of success in
that movement Well the committee worked
faithfully, raked the country from end to end
for evidence against the President, but were
compelled to report that they could find moth
ing to hang valid charge on. So the reason
for the assembling of congress in July had
failed. Nevertheless the session is to be held.
Whys Do the finances need further tinkering ?
McCuloch says he wants no help from:congress
on the contrary, intimates that the only en-
barrassment he anticipated is from the addi-
tional appropriations a July session will be
likely to make. Then why is the session held (?
1t is the old Observation-Disclosures The
constant study Of the radicals has been from
the beginning how not to do it. First Lin

was ready to adopt this plan. the programme

well enough to side over" the fall elections,
but then, as there seemed some little prospect
of its acceptance by the SOUTH it was again
changed, and thereconstruction act and sup
plement of the last session proposed, imposing
full negro suffrage. Now most unexpectedly
the South evinces disposition to adopt even
this. 1t will never do. The south must be
kept out Of the Union at all hazards until af
ter the next presidential election, and as the
last plan threatens again to fail of this object
congress must meet to tinker up another sup

calculation is, that our radical congress will
never let the southern states vote unless assur-
ed beforehand that they will vote for the radi-
cal candidate On the other hand, should
enough northern states vote democratic to give
that party the President, with the help of the
southern states, and the radicals should refuse
to count the southern vote, as they certainly
will if it is against them, what then?

latitude, twenty miles long 1t is exactly in the
track of vessels bound to this port from China
and Japan. Fogs and misty weather prevail in
that section of the Pacific. 1t is supposed that
many missing vessels have been wrecked there
The discovery is considered of sufficient iIapor-

A company has been organized in San Francisco
