adapted to the production of church-goers,
and as a consequence the congregations oi

the children, and at night Mr.. Gilbert de-
livered another of his impressive discourses.
Four persons were united to the church bv
certificate.
At the Methodist Church the Sacrament
OF the Lords Supper was administered by
the pastor, Rev. DR.. Martin, in the morn
ing, and at night splendid sermon was
preached by the Rev. Mr.. Seat, formerly of:
the Texas Conference, but now of the Balt1-
more Conference, NJ. E. Church South. The
same gentleman delivered short lecture at
West End Chapel in the afternoon.
In the absence of Mr.. Hullihen, the Sac
rament Of the Lords Supper was admins
tered in the Episcopal Church by the Rev.
Mr.. Phillips-that gentleman reading a SER
mon over hundred years old, it having

TO WALLACE AND DILL.
To the Editor Of The Tribune.
SIR The Democratic party IN this section
OF Pennsylvania is exceedingly busy this beautiful
Sabbath day in arranging the prellminar1es Tor

among strange sights OF this is that OF such
blue-bocds Dallas Sanders the Hon. John X.
Read, and the Hon. George NJ. Dallas cOunscllng
and heartily cooperating with Bill A" MeAiullin and
Fourth ward statesmen. Speaker Randall has
made bitter fight againt Senator Wallace in this
Gubcrnatoral contest He began IL immediately after
he was chosen Speaker and has kept up increasingly
ever since. The Speakers hostility TO Dill for
Governor Is for no other reason than that his
nomination ia favored by Senator Wallace, who
resides in DIPS Senatorial District Had the
Senator gwen bis support to jerks or Buckalew for
Chief Executive Randall would have opposed either OK
these men as earnestly he is fighting Dill That
Randall viii be defeated in this contest | do not
for moment question: and for the reason that Dill dele
gates have from every section in the State
including 36 this city, who uuqualiiediy for
him.
have eonversed with nearly all who will shape aud
direct the action the Pittsburg Convention. and the
conclusion reach respecting the ticket is that 1t Will
be Senator Andrew II. Dill for Governor, Cap
tain McCiclland for LeutenantGOyernor, General VIII
liam McCandicss for Secretary OF Internal Az
fairs and the present Oh ef Justice Agnew
for Justice OF the Supreme Court This fight the part
OF Randall was wholly OF his seeking. Ii entire
uncalcd for and has had the effect of alternating from
him stsuneh friends AZ Charles r. Buck,

Barr, Tbc PjtiSbHrG Post II Randall Is de-
featcd az Ptgburg, probable, his own party
may conclude 10 put him in n position where be
will be powerlcss 10 create snch antag0Blsms by not
only deryins him OF the speakershp or the next Com
Democrats
defeating him for Congress in his district. Ran
dal's hostility TO Senator iWallace and Dill arises
from q twofOld First, Randall wants TO Sc
cure control OF the State Government 80 that IL VIII De
directed in his interest for the Presidency and
| second, because Wallace and Dill are bitterly
opposed 10 Randa's freetrade principles. Aside
