THE UNION CHURCH CHOIR.

The singing in the Union ME-, Church,
yesterday, morn ng and evening, was con-
Quoted without choir, disagreement
having arisen between the pastor and the
choir in relation to congregational singing.
The pastor favored it, and the choir
backed by the Trustees opposed it, and
the pastors opinions were SO plainly ex-
pressed that the members of the choiI
felt that there was only one thing for
them to do, viz, to decline to sing as a
choir any further until the difference is
settled. Last evening Mr.. Mann preach.
ell a sermon, in which he strongly favor
ed congregational singing, because singing
was an element of divine worship, and if
it was performed exclusively by the choir
it removed SO much religious spirit from
the hearts of the people. He was not op.
posed to choir singing if it was conducted
in such manner as TO allow the congre-
nation to join in it.
At the col clus.on Of his sermon, he al.
nounced that the commit ee on music
Messrs. VIM. ID. Pickles, j. Gibson and
himself, would meet at the parsonage, on
Wednesday evening, to consider the dis.
agreement.

Ballot-box stufling, of a very salutary
kind, is now being practiced at lively
rate in many of The Northern cities. The
glass boxes, which in New York and
used upon election days TO receive the
ballots of the people, are now set up in
public places to receive their cash for the
benefit of the yellow fever sufferers of the
South. When the idea was first suggest-
ed the fear was expressed that the boxes
might remain as empty as those, which,
years ago, were erected to receive con-
tributions for the " Washington Monu-
ment The result has proved otherwise
The first twenty-four hours receipts al
the New y ork Post Office were about $50
the next over Sl30; and so it goes on, the
contributions being in all manner OF
amounts, from nickles and postage stamps
to greenbacks.
