RECEPTION OF MOULTON'S STATE
MENT.

mr.. Beecher Has Not Read It-Criticisms
of the Pastors Fri riends-Entertainme
by Mrs. Harriet Bcecher Stowe.
TWIN MOUNTAIN HOUSE, N. H., Sept. 13. 1874.
Mr.. Beecher has not read Moulon's statement.
Those here who have say 1t is weak compared with
what they expected. A lew call 1t ingenious, but
the majority mink 1t not even that; they say it
makes no new points. while 1t shows great bitter
ness and an inclination to suspect
OBSCENITY IN INNOCENT THINGS.
1t was remarked that Moulton's principal excuse
for his long silence was that the interests OF the
church. OF religion and OF the families involved
made silence a duty, and yet he felt no hesitation
IN sacrificing these interests the moment his per-
sOnal safety was involved. No one seems regret
this publication put on the contrary all here say
that 1t INJURIES MOulton more than any one else.
Last evening Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe. In re-
spOnse to a cordial invitation which had been ex-
tended by guests OF the hotel, read humorous Sc
lectiOnS from her writings Her happy repre-
sentatiOn OF the character or Sam Lawson, that
genuine Yankee gossip In the stories entitled
Captain Browns Ghost" and "ParsOn CarOlis
Housekeeper," was greatly enjoyed.

THE JERSEY CRURCH SCANDAL.
Glendenning Expected Mt Service but
Not Present-A Touching Prayer for
the AcCused Pastor.

Not Present-A Touching Prayer for
the Accused Pastor.
Those who attended the Church OF the Scandal,
on Prospect avenue, Jersey City Heights, yester-
day were doomed to a double DISAPPOINTMENT.
Glendenning was expected to partake with his
congregation OF the Lords supper, but ne did
not appear. The announcement that he was to
be in attendance was calculated to attract q large
number of curious spectators, but it proved just
the reverse. The attendance was very slim. In
fact, the trustees find 1t hard work to keep the
nucleus OF congregation together ana there is
probability it will be dissolved il the Presbytery
do not interfere at the meeting next month. 1t is
patent as the lignt OF day that there Is only the
sembance OF congregation left.
Rev. Mr.. Wiggins, OF New York, conducted the
services, and was assisted by an elder who was q
stranger to the congregation. This elder offered
fervent prayer, IN which he was not forgetul of
the troubles OF the church, to which he made the
following allusion "Remove, Lord from this
church, everything that lrowns upon u.s. everything
greeabe, for Thou canst clear these things up Bless
trials. o Lord relieve HIM; clear away his
troubles, that Thy name may be glorifed and Thy
ecians anG Tbnu ,anss m Sia Win
o Lord do Thou this for Christ's sake and Tor the
SAKE OF Thy people VINO are also IN sorrow through
denning's sister entered, and became the sole oc-
cupant of the family pew.
The sermon was preached from the Second Epis
tie or Paul to the Corinthians lx., 15-''Thanks be
to God or his unspeaxable giit.r 1t had q direct
reference to the solemn act OF partaking OF the
LORDS Supper which took place Immediately
after the conclusion Of the sermon. On either side
OF the minister were seated The elders, Mr.. James
Dunn and Mr.. G. p. Howell, who handed the bread
and the wine to every person in the congregation.
Mr.. Dunn, 1t will be remembered, was one OF the
party alluded to in young Nutter's afiidavt at
tempting to coerce him to make an affidavit as
suminR the paternity OF Mary E. POmerOy's child.
The Offclatn8 clergyman warned all who INDUCED
in profane swearing Sabbath breaking or Immo-
rality OF any kind net to partake; but there we're
no such Offenders IL the congregation, they all
partOOk.
Giendenning appeared in the church twice
during the week-Dnce at the regular evening
prayer meeting and once at the children's festival
