Frona ALBANY,

ALBANY, May 23.-The Presbyterian
Assembly, Old School, reassembled to-
day. A colored delegate, Rev. Joseph
Williams, representing the Knox Pres.
bytery Of Georgia, composed wholly oi
freedmen, was admitted to seat. The
thirteenth annual report of the Board
of Church Extension was submitted.
which showed the receipts for the year
to be S50,3l9, and the disbursements
SCI, ,46O. Over 1000 churches have failed
to contribute to the support of the fund
during the year. The report was unan.
imously adopted. Rev. DIR. Darling, in
behalf of the New School Church, ad.
dressed the Assembly by invitation,
strongly urging a reunion, though he
admitted that many members of his
church were opposed to it from fear OF
the results. The Moderator thanked
DR.. Darling for the expression of his
sentiments and strongly ayowed his
individual desire for reunion. Both
speeches were warmly applauded.
A great freshet prevails here. The
water last night was as high as at the
time the ice broke up. The pier steam
boat landing and quay are submerges
and many bridges destroyed. Many
merchants suffer much damage.
The grand jury to-day brought an in
dictment against Mark II. Lewis
charged on complaint of E. III. K. Glenn
member of the Assembly, with attempt
ing bribery in the Erie railroad bill
The jury also brought in several indict
ments, and it is generally believed thai
one or more members of the Legislature
are involved. ..

scene we witnessed Bones backing out
most furiously. We don't see that
there is much application, but the
above scene reminded US forcibly OF the
prayerful wrestling of Senators Harlan
aud Wiley, on the suggestion of Bishop
Simpson, just before the awful hour OF
voting on impeachment, and which
wrestling some of Mr.. Willey's friends
declare to be q lie concocted by some
week -kneed Radical who was bought to
vote against impeachment. We dent
know whether the meeting ever ad-
journed, as we left when the classroom
exercises commenced, and have seen no
one since who was there.

A deep interest is now felt in the
prosperity of the Democratic Club in
this city. 1t has been thoroughly or
ganized, ably Officered, and put in fine
trim for effective operation during tho
coming campaign.
We were unable To be present at the
meeting on Saturday night, but learn
that the general subject of the coming
campaign was thoroughly discussed,
that measures were taken for energetic
work from now until November, and
that the spirit displayed indicated the
willingness aud determination of our
city Democrats to put forth every ex-
ertion necessary to unprecedented sue
cess in the coming campaign.
From this time forward, the Club will
meet regularly every Saturday evening.
On appropriate occasions addresses up
on the various political issues .will be
delivered by prominent speakers, and
at each meeting the actual business of
the campaign will receive proper atten-
tion. We cannot too strongly urge
upon our Democratic fellow-citizens the
Importance Of taking hold with their
friends who are already foremost in
the fight. General cooperation is want
ed; large attendance at each meeting
is desired. We know it is difficult, in
advance of nominations, to get our
friends generally to participate in these
meetings. Many there are who are
ready to work at all times, in season
and out of season, but with the great
mass there is not the same interest felt
prior to the placing of tickets in the
held, as after the battle is fairly opened.
1t should not be forgotten that this
Will be no ordinary contest. 1t will be
tle fercest aud bitterest political strug-
gle ever waged in this country. The
utmost energy of every Democrat may
De needed to grasp that success which
snow within our reach. We therefore
call upon the Democrats of this city to
shake off their apathy, and begin at
once to take part in the preparation for
The contest. The Club Room will be the
tailying point, and we heartily invite the
Democrats Of the city to be present
there on the nights ofmeeting, to aid as
they may deem best, in furthering the
good work.
