The Evangelical Alliance.

New YORK, Oct 9-At 10 o'clock this
morning steamer with Mayor lIavemeyer and
the members of the Common Council on board
arrived at the foot of East Goth street to take
the torei gu delegates to the Evangelical Congress
on visit to the Institutions on Blackwcll's Is
land as guests Of the city. Quite a number OF
European delegates availed themselves OF the
invitation rendered them. Upon the meeting Of
the first section in Association Hall this a. H.,
Rev. DR.. Prime, General Secretary, gave the
following notices: Ga Sunday evening there
will be meeting at the Academy of Music at
which Rev DR.. Schenck, of Brooklyn will deliv-
er farewell address aud replies will be made by
the respective delegations from abroad. The
same evening meetings will be held in Tamlnany
Hall and Steinway Hall, free to all who can get
in, as DR.. Prime says, and German meeting,
it is expected will be held, in Cooper Institute
The official report ofall papers read at the con-
ference is to be published. There will be
prayer meeting at = p. N. to-day in DR.. hog
er's Church. Finally the delegates were in
formed that their return tickets were ready for
them at the various offices down town.
The first paper read this a. M, was on the
church and the nation by Rev. w. Frecmantle,
Of London. He favored the principle that III
Christian nations the Church and the State are
identical and there can be no alliance between
them for they are not independent powers. dc
believed that 10 future the pulpit Will
speak more of civil government and law and
legislatures will feel more the Influence OF rell-
gion. The judges aud magistrates are the true
elders of this day and in the scripture the
authority Of the ruler is more insisted upon
than that Of the teacher, as come from God.
