New York, Dec S.-The jersey City
Presbyt.ry met this morning to make
up their oficisl verdict in the case Of
John s. Glendenping, charged with
immonlity in his relations with Miss

that several distinct charges we're made,
each with specifications, and that the
latter we're voted upon separately. The
charges of seduction, breach OF promise,
and fslsehood were not sustained. The
second specification of the fourth charge
is as follows In that Rev. John s.
Glendenning compromised his Christian

Tanaery Burned Emporium.

This wednesday, morning at about
4 o'clock an alarm of FIRE was sounded
aud it was soon learned that the exten-
sive tsunery Of Hamilton, Martin l. Co.,
situated in the upper part of toe borough
vas on Ere. Fastening to the scene,
We saw at glance that the main build
ing, covering the vsis, engine sud bark
mill, was doomed to destruction, the Gre
having entire possession Of it and that no
mesns at hand could stay it. How the
ire originated VIC were unable to learn
Mr.. Day, one Of the members of the
company, thinks it must have caught in
the bsrk mill, While we heard
another express the opinion that it
originated in the engine room. 1t is
impossible at this writing, to give any
definite idea of the extent of tho dam
age to the hides in the vats, which were
full, nor can it be ascertaiued for several
days. The loss in building aud machin-
cry cannot be less than $4,000, on
on which there is an insurance of S10,-
600.
This is serious loss, not only to the
Company, but to the town, for it gave
employment to large number Of men,
dependent on their labor for support,
and they are now thrown out of employ
ment, Temporarily. at lesst,) when they
can i'll afford it. The Company have
ever been prompt in the payment. of
their men. Mr.. Day, the resident man
ager, i, straight forward, energetic and
honorable gentleman, and if the Com
pspy has not made money here, it can
not be fault Of his.
