Presbyterian Reunion.

The reunion of the two schools"
of the Presbyterian Church has at
length been contaminated. The
Pittsburgh Assemblies of this week
put the finishing touches upon the
grandest religious event Of this gen
GRAFTON. The schism occurred thir-
ty-one years ago. The reunion now
effected brings into unity two
mighty armies of the Church mill
tant. We find in recent number
of the New York Observer, Pres
byterian newspaper antedating the
separation in its birth, the following
figures

The same journal states that
thirty years ago, when the disas-
trous rupture occurred, the Presby-
terrain Church in the United States
included less number of presbyte-
rief and synods, ministers and menu
bers than either of the two divisions
now numbers. And from both of
them has gone into another body the
entire Southern Presbyterian Church,
so that it may be fairly said that du-
ring the separation the Church in
creased almost three-fold." A few of
the Old School Presbyteries opposed
reunion, but none of the New
School. 1t appears that only three
negative votes were cast in all the
lib presbyterics of the New School
branch.

Judge Rutland.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEws


Is it necessary to say word in defence OF
Judge Rutland, against the ISLANDERS uttered
against him by different ignorant members of
the Radical legislature Would the testimony
as to his honesty and justice In deciding cases,
so far as seen Of Judge Rutland, by the whole
bar OF his circuit change or establish prejudice
We suppose not; yet such testimony could be
had. If OF any avail. We, though entirely dis.
agreeing with the Judge in his political notions,
do bear testimony OF his impartial justice, and
his great efforts TO DO Justice to all. When he
came upon our circuit crime was rampant, espe-
cialy larceny-a hog was curiosity. Now
crime is almost unEnowl, even stealing is be-
coming rare; riots, fighting, &C., is unknown.
Who deserves the credit? Judge Rutland. Com
pare his circuit with that OF Judge Orr. Judge
Thomas, or even of Judge Boozer or Judges
Platt and Vernon. .'how much more peaceful and
quiet Yet he is complained Of because he sup
presses crime and strikes terror into the hearts
OF evi-doers. Judge the tree by its fruits is all
our Judge wants. II men who are familiar with
crime themselves desire to impeach him because
BY themselves, let them do so; we OF the bar
can bear testimony Overwhelmingly OF his i'm
partial dealings with every criminal before him,
be he white or black. But We beg the Legisla-
ture not to elect Judge Rutland to the Supreme
Bench. for fear some successor might be sent
hogs we have would all finally disappear. 8.

SoI NDISG THE ALARN.-When the fire broke
out in East ny on Saturday night, the watchman
at St. Mlchael's Church promptly sounded the
alarm for Ward No. !. A few minutes later the
Orphanhouse bell also sounded the alarm, but
called Ward No.4. This was repeated for some
time, and caused both confusion and delay to the
Fire Department. Mayor Pillsbury will, OF course,
understand that 1t is almost as important to
sound the alarm correctly as to sound 1t at all,
and 50 little attention is paid to this matter that
hardly fire breaks out that there is not some
Just complaint Of the watchmen or police. On
Friday morning when the fire broke out in Meet
lag street, the policeman on duty saw the fire,
but did not know what was the number OF the
ward. 1t Is evident enough that while policemen
are ignorant Of the number Of the ward in which
they are on duty, there is little probability 2!
having the alarm given correctly. A similar igno-
rance is, we presume, the cause OF the blunders
OF the steeplemen. We hope that Mayor Pillsbury
viii at once give his attention to the matter, and
not excuse his inaction by saying that this COM
plant is caused by opposition to the politics Of
the Radical policemen.

TIE RAIN YEsTERDAY.-The lowering skies
which marked Christmas afternoon, had faithful
ly Alfied their promise long before midnight,
and Sunday dawned upon thoroughly wet city.
All day long, with slight intermlssions, the rain
poured down. The drain openings became chok-
ed, and many Of the streets were covered with
water. The east end OF Calhoun street was al
most impossible, and the low grounds in difey-
ent parts Of the city were transformed into mina-
ture lakes On Meeiing and other streets, ira
versed by the city railway, large portion Of the
track was under water, and none but the amphi-
blous could attempt to reach the cars until they
stopped on comparatively dry ground. For rain,
the performance or the past two days has been
decided success, but the moisture has been rather
nore than the most ardent believer in hydropa-
thy could desire 1t has rained, in fact, with san
exceeding great and vehement muchness."

reputation of the Galton Company we feel war
ranted in saying that the performance will
eclipse anything that we have had in the way Of
opera since the war. Those who have heard the
"Last Rose OF Summer" as sung by Miss Susan
Galton, assure us that the song alone is worth
the price OF admission.
