LOUISIANA.
Receivers Appointed for the New Or.
leans, ST. Louis and Chicago, and
Mobile and Ohio Railways.

New ORLEANS, March n.-Jupius
G. Alexander, of New York, was to-day
appointed by Judge Wood receiver Of
the New Orlesns, s.. Louis aud Chicago
railroad. Simultaneous applications
were made to the court by Judge Camp
bell, representing the Illinois Genital
railroad company, and Semmes and
Mott, representing the income mortgage
bondholders. General WalthaH, of
counsel for the company defendant, adj
mitted at the outset that the application
for the appointment of receiver could
not be successfully resisted, but earnest
ly opposed the demand of the Illinois
company for a decree putting the trus-
tees named in their mortgage into i'm
mediate possession of the road. Mr..
Semmes united with the defendant
company in opposing this application,
but assented to q receiver. Judge Wood
this morning denied the application OF
the Illinois Central railroad company
to put their trustees in possession, and
with the consent OF all parties msde the
order for q receiver, and directed the
payment OF wages and supply bills in
Cured within three months. Friday
evening in chambers Judge Wood heard
the application to file bill in the dis
trlct court of Alabama on the part of
Morris Ketchum and others, of New
York, with the intent OF dlsplaGing the
present receivers of the Mobile and Ohio
railroad, Duncan and Elliott. After q
lengthy argument Of counsel, the Judge
finally granted the application.

STORRS.
BE Thinks the Congregational Council
HeaPed Dirt on the Doctrines
OF the L0Etls .r
A nd had no More Right 10 Conduct the
Trial Of Beeeher than that of
RabcOcbs

NEW YORK, March 13-The Church
of Pilgrims, OF which ReY. DR.. StoTs is
pastor, was crowded last night by
congregation anxious to hear his views,
as had been announced he would deliver
in regard to the recent advisory council
aud its decisions. The Usual Sunday
evening sermon was dispensed with,
and instead DR.. Storrs read his state
ment on the subject in question. AS it
had been said he was not in sympathy
with congregationalism, it seemed prop
er he should give his reasons for his
withdrawing from the position Of presi
dent of the American Congregational
union aud membership in the board of
directors. In regard to the troubles of
the Plymouth church he had never
taken any part in them, aud would not
do so now. He characterized the recent
advisory council, although composed OF
a very intelligent body Of men, 90 one Of
no great moral weight. Ii wes large in
membership, however, and represented
9 constituency Of thirty-iour thousand
Elk hundred and eleven members. He
thought the previous Congregational
council had much more weight, because
&c was not composed ofdelegates known
to be favorable to PlymCu h church.
He knew there were in the late council
very many delegates favorable to
Plymouth church, and this fact would
throw some light on the strange results
arrived at. He referred to the fact that
while here the delegates were socially
cared for by Plymouth church He
condemned the rules laid down by
this council for the admission of mem
bers and the guidance OF Congregational
cllI1rnheG Ha cnndpInne8 the pOnsfrII
ton of the manner of communion, which
opened its doors to all who sought adj
mittance, and excluded the examination
by the church of the forgeT, the adulterer
and the maligner, merely dropping their
names from the rolls on account OF at
sencs from the church. He thought the
recent advisory council improper, SIS it
tended to cause innu merAble councils to
be called. He thought the council had,
without such an intention, hesped dirt
on the great doctrines of the LORD, and
had spread its protecting wings over the
pastor of Plymouth church. According
to the doctrine OF the Catholic church,
the uDchristisn character Of the priest
made no difference TO the member in so
far as the efficacy OF the sacrament was
concerned, bat it would be hard to make
Professionals accept such view. Such q
council as had been called would have
about sS much effect as bunch of feath-
eTs in clearing out mine. The request
from the church in AndOver to Ply
mouth church was perfectly proper, and
the council went out OF its way to deal
with the matter. The council had no
more right to deal with the matter than
it had TO conduct the trisi of General
BabcOek.

From NaYtratnr,s Islands.

SAN Francisco, March ia pri-
vate letter from Apis, Samoa, says that
the armed schooner Peerless, purchased
here by Colonel Steinberger for the Sa-
moan government, wac eeized by the
commander OF the British ship-of- war
BOnsvents, after consultation with the
American and British consuls, for car
rying arms under the American flag.
She was dismantled and sold by Foster,
the American consul, to Captain Mac
KiRzie, of Auckland. A meeting of the
foreign residents was then hello. The
British, German and American eonsuIs
were present. Steinberger. was called on
to shOwhis commission from the United
States, which he did. The British con-
sui forbade his countrymen to obey Sa-
moan laws, and sent to Fiji for another
waT-ship. A proclamation was issued
by the captain OF the Bonayeata, and
the American, British and German con.
suls, reciting, that as the Samoan gov
eminent has set aside the legitimate au-
thority OF the representatives of the for.
eign powers, they agree that hereafter
Samoan laws shall not be carried into
effect with regard to foreigners, but they
shall be governed by their respective
consular courts. The letter, which was
evidently written by friend of Stein
berger, says that the English will either
force the Samoan government to send
away Steinberger, which it will not do,
or they will take the island by force.
