Some Of the Presidents friends have
already begun to plan the policy Of the
coming session Of Congress. and have
agreed tha. the Civil lights Bill shall

to secure the Southern States for the
Republican party. Alter this they
propose that a stringent Civil Service
Bill shall be passed to secure the re.

TOtals...........

1t is stated by the Washington cores
pendent Of the Nelc York Times (Rep.
that bets are freely offered in Washington
that the next House of Representatives
will be Democratic, and that there are no
takers. In this connection there is one
significant fact. The ele ton of House
of Representatives before a Presidential
election is almost a never-failing indica-
ton of the result of that election. Thus
in 1S39-4O the House Of Representatives
was Wing. Gen. Harrison (Whig)
was elected President. In 1851 the
House was Democratic, and in 1874
James X. Polk was chosen President. In
IS46-4T the Wings carried it, and General
TAYLOR came it as President at the next
election, in 1913. The Democrats elected
the House in'1S50-51, and in 1852 they
chose Franklin Pierce as Chief Magis-
trate of the Union. Ia 1886 no party
had the majority Of the House, and James
Buchanan (DemOcrat)was chosen Pres
ident by a plurality. In 1S59-60 the Re
pnblicans elected Mr.. Pennington, of
New Jersey, as Speaker, by a majority
vote, and that was followed by the election
of Abraham Lincoln. Since that time, the
Democracy have never come near having a
supremacy in the popular branch Of the
Representative Department Of the Govern
ment. The idea is that the peoples will is
first felt in the choice of House, and that
it is afterward maintained in the selection
of those departments whose agreement with
the House are necessary TO the enactment
of laws. The deaih-knell ofGrantism will
be written whenever il is recorded that the
Democrats have the majority in the next
House.

An End Of the Heresy TriaI-PattOn
Sustained-The Synod Reyerses the
Action Of the Presbyfery.

An End of the Heresy Trial-PattOn
Sustained-The Synod Reverses the
Action Of the Presbytery.
CHICAGO, Ill, Oct. 23.-The Presbyte-
rian Synod to-day, after prolonged discus
sion, voted, by large majority, 20 sus ain
the appeal of Prof. Patton from the verdict
of the Chicago Presbytery in the Swing
case, and subsequently the report Of the
committee appointed TO express the action
of the Synod in reference to the matter
was submitted, with a recommendation
that the Synod proceed to vote on the
charges and Specifications severally, and
that the Synod be at liberty to take such
final action after the vote as in the wisdom
of the body may seem best.
The report was adopted, and the Synod
proceeded to take a vote on the charges
and specifications. Charges first and sec
Ond, with the specifications, were sus-
tanned.
At this p, int Rev. Finlay submitted n
preamble and resolutions, Teciting the ac-
ton Of the Synod in the matter, sustaining
and recommending Prof. Patton in his ae-
ton, and reprOving the Chicago PreSbytery
for its verdict in the case, for the sake of
ending the unhappy CONTROVERSY d as the
accused person had declared himself an in
dependent minister, directing the Chicago
Prsbytery Ia erase ID. Swings name from
its rolls.
After further discussion, the resolutions
were referred To a committee who brought
in the following, which was adopted:
The committee appointed 10 prepare =
minute expressing the sense of the court i'm
the matter of the appeal Of Rev. +. l.. Pat
ton against the Rev. David Swing, from the
decision OF the Presbytery Of Chicago, re-
commend the adoption of the following:
l. The Synod sustains the appeal and re-
verses the action IT the court below.
,. The Synod finds thai both charges
were prosed.
.. The Synod believes that the proof of
these charges would, under other eircIm-
stances, require il to pronounce this SEN
tence OF suspension from the gospel minis
try on the Rev. David Swing; but, in view
Of the fact thai Mr.. Swing has not ap-
ps.ared before the bar of this Synod. and
has. in fact, declared himself To be an indie
pendent minister, the Synod forbeIrs To
pronounce this sentence, and diSpOseS Of
the case by requiring the Presbytery of
Chicago To erase his name from the roll.
This ends the Swing matter, for the PIES
ent, at least.
Adjourned sine die this evening.
