THE INV sYNop-THRER PREsBYTERIEs AR
RANGED.

RANGED.
The Synod of Baltimore met according to
appointment, in Central Presbyterian Church,
last evening, and was opened with sermon by
Rev. X. H. Williams, of Frederick, Nd, from
the text C0lossians, 1, Is: "WhOm we preach,
teaching every man, and warning every man,
&C."
The regular order of business was then pro-
ceeded with, and after the roll-call, Rev. DIR.
John Patton, of Middletown, was elected Mod
orator by acclamation; the nomination having
been gracefully made by DR.. Backus, of Balt-
Rev. j. p. Carter elected stated clerk, and
Rev. b: L. Bittenger, permanent clerk; MIR.
y. +. McLear, of this city, and Mr.. Ferris
Moore, of Baltimore, were also appoin ted tenn
porary clerks.
A Committee of one minister and one elder

DRY GooDs.-Brown sheetings and shirtings
are rather quiet, altl GU IA the market through
out the week has been fairly active in c0mpari-
son with other fabrics. Bleached sheetings and
shirtings are languid ard slow of sale, except
ing for a few of the most favorably known
makes, which are meeting a moderate demand
for current distribution. Cotton drills sell
slowly. but moderate inquiry is reported for
small lots of the best makes to supply home
wants. Rolled iacOnets: Some OF the most IA
vorably known makes find moderate sale, but
the movements are of small lots only, and the
aggregate amount is not heavy. Corset jeans
are not in very active request, though the
movements appear relatively fair. Stripes and
ticks do rot seem to have revived since our last
review but continue quiet with no heavy sales
reported. Silesias are selling in fair aggregate
amounts to the clothiers. but beyond that there
is little inquiry for the goods. Prices are
steady at quotations. Printing cloths have
been rather less active, and the sales
do not foot up very satisfactory amount.
Prints appear TO be in better demand than
almost any class of cotton fabrics, and the
movements up to the close of the week have been
heavier than was anticipated. At the close
business seems little more slack, but is still
fair, as compared with the trade in other goods.
The present business is confined to the leading
cambria styles and to small and well-aSSorted
iOts of the best brands in medium colorings,
which are placed at steady prices. CasSimeres
are quiet at the close of the week, and, indeed,
tie sales throughout ave shown a gradual fall
ii G off, as compared with those of the previous
week. Prices remain much the same and ex-
hibit good degree of tTmneSS. Cloths have
met less active request, but are still selling in
moderate amounts to the iObbing trade. The
sales thus far this season have been unusually
heavy. Blankets are beginning TO sell some
what, although il is rather early for a trade of
any magnitude in this department-N. T. But

THE oLoRED VOTERS AT OUR RECENT
ELEcTIoS.-The Neg Era, the organ of the
colored men in this city, says:
1--WE notice that some few Washington letter
writers writing to newspapers at a distance, es-
pecially to those in the South, represent the
result OF the late election in our city as a dem
ocratlc victory. This is not true, and the mis-
representation is calculated to cast an unwar-
ranted reflection upon the fidelity of the cOlOred
voters OF this city. The facts are simply these
Mr.. Emery, the successful candidate for Mayor,
Is republican; he was put in nomination by
republicans, and large numbers of republicans,
beth colored and white, voted for him, as is
shown by the overwhelming majority he re-
ed, although no principle of the republican
party was involved in the issue. The truth is, a
portion of the republican party had become dis
satisfied with some OF our city officials and with
the management of city affairs, and demanded
a change"
