LOCAL INTELLIGENCE Sysop or Virointa.—We yesterday gave ah Outline of the report of the committee on the minutes of the late General Assembly at Cleve- land, Obio, and, as a matter of public interest, now publish it in full : The committee on the minutes of the General Assembly report that they have examined the same to pages {01-2-3-4, and as it is impossible for them to concur with the views therein ex- pressed, and which the members of tris Synod are expected to carry ont. in the administration of the affairs of our churches, we are, therefore, left to the alternative of dissolving our connec- tion with the General Assembly ; and the com- mittee »ccordingly recommend that the Synod of Virginia do withdraw from all further connec- tion with the General Assembly of the Presbyte- rian Church in the United States, which held its sessions at Cleveland, Ohio, in May, 1857. In Yecommending this course to the Synod, we be- lieve that we are expressing the sentiment of the great majority of our churches, deliberately formed aiter the most ample discussion, and when all the means of reconciliation and a!! the efforts for united action have been exhausted. While we take this ground. with a firm trust in the justice of our principles, and an unaltera- ble reliance on the gracious support of the great Head of the Church, we do so with unabated af- fection for our brethren in the Lord, who have compelied us to separate from them, and on ‘whom we would invoke the choicest benedic- tions of our common Lord. Signed by—J.N. Danforth, J. D. Mitchell, O. well, A. H.H. Boyd, J. R. Grattan, and tliam Herring Subsequently, the Rev. Mr. Carothers offered the following resolotions: J Resolved, That the stated clerk of the Synod be directed to retain in his [ser aes. the records of od till called for by the unanimous vote of vod, ax at present constituted. g ed, That the Synod of Virginia are op- Posed to the agitation of the slavery question is ecclesiastical bodies, and have no sympathy with © Northern of Southern extremists on this ject, and are opposed to political preachers and preaching Ke solved. That we have heard with regret that the sentiments of the Declaration of Independence are opposed by some miristers: and that we re- Pe that national document as an honor to the fead and heart of its anthor, and believe that it to be the pride aad glory of all Presbyteri- nd of the American people 3 ved, That the Synod of Virginia, believ- that from her territoria! position she has a t mission to perform ia binding still stronger cords that hold together the Union 9f these d States, cerpestly depreeates all agitation of the slavery question in ecclesiastical bodies. The resolutions being ander consideration, Rev. Mr. C. steted that he was a Southern man, op- posed to the agitation of slavery, and was 0; tot action of the Cleveland Assembly, and also ction for a new assembly; he would give other time, but remarked that the ox ville movement was not wholly Southern, a he thought, were opposed to the tion tions were laid on the table. Jouathaa Cross, the General Agent of the au Tract Society for the State of Mary- Jand, made remarks, on iavitation of the Synod, showing that through the Society the gespe! had been preached to the poor who would never have been reached in any other way, and that the So- ciety bad, through the late proclamation of the ‘Tract Society's executive board, shown that, not- withstanding the action of the Society tast spring, they should sanction the publication of nothing on Which the whole christian ¢hurch of the United States could not agree. Mr. Jaeab Gideon (elder) moved to insert all the doewments in the Assembly’s minutes In the Teport; carried Mr. ‘Crempston offered the following resolu- tic Resolved. ‘That, since the recent action of the xecutive commitiee of the Traet Society to ed- ere strictly to the letter and spirit of the cunsti- ution of said Society, we recommend the objects agents of the Society to the continued couti- lence of our churches. Carried. Rev. Mr. Haskell wanted time to repare his pinions for expression; not to form them They were now what they had always been; but as a ay of the District Presbytery and as an in- di I pastor, he thought too little time had ven for consultation. It was not the nsual for young men to move too slowly; but he thet, like Moses by the Red Sea, he a recommend the Presbytery to stand stili nd see the salvation of the Lord. His mind was and, like Dr. Sunderland, he would ce his relation to his beloved charge. the of his family—but he could not sacrifice cence to these relations. Rev Mr. Nourse thought time enough had been given for consultation, and, while feeling for the District Presbytery, there was no other course, in his opinion, than the one recommended for them to pursue. As to conscience, we were not to be guided by that. We were guided by the Word of God. “Conscience was to be educated. The Northern part of the Church had given up their conscience to the guidance of their fallen in- Atincts. Wemust be aed by the Bible—and he was prepared to cut loose from she Clevelaad ssembly, becanse they had presented a set of Abolition resolutions which they were called wpon to endorse or repudiaie. And as to the fi- nancial point of view, although they were to lose every dollar which the Nerth had been aceus- tome te pour into the Seuthern treasury, yet let the Synod stand on principle, and God’ would stand by them. Rev. Mr. Newlin, President of Delaware Col- lege. offered the following asa substitute for the portof the Committee on Minutes of the As- sembly: W bereas, it has been the rule of this Synod, at our annual meetings, to appoint a Committee on she minutes of the General Assembly to report such matters as may require our attention: and whereas the action of the Assembly on certain cts, has oOceasioned much discussion and rence of opinion; therefore— hat said comunittee beexcus+d from the minutes of the Asseiuuly, aud ive any definitivenction on the relae tain to the Assembly until our next meeting ewliu stated in substance that he had no ition, when he came into the house, of ta- @uy part im the discussion of this sabject, aud he was induced to offer this sulstitute, not ax an expression of individual opinion, ner te call up the merits of the question, but simply ax a& peace offering appaceat from th tion on points which had been discussed, and he feared it might imperil the integrity of the Syn- od, whieb all desired to be p-es*rved in ‘The only aim and purpose of the substitute 9 t matter rest; and God, in bis pro’ ence, would, be! their next meetiag, more clearly indicate what would best promote the weil being of all the charches Rev.

A des ry debate now took place upon a point of order nee with the Pstitute offered by wiin, which was ended by the with- d:awal of the motion to lay en the table R C. H. Nourse thouzht it better to meet the question now than to avoid it fora year longer. fn this ease to do nothing was to do everything— w ore the course of the Assembly d complained of w: ¢ than had elapsed al Assembly ? BR ¥. Dr. Boyd wanted to know, ff they did not withdraw from the Assembly, what course were y to take who remained in connection with the Cleveland Assembly, for it was now regarded as an aboli- tion Assembly. Let the issne come Here foltowed an animated and :at herdesultory conversational debate, led by Dr. Reed. the main subject of which was the necessity of a with- drawal from the Cleveland Assembly, ; Revs. Carothers, Haskell, i aed others joined. and in wh some warmt was shown, but all courtesy observed. Rev. Dr. Smith, of this city, expressed his at- tachment to the Synod of Virginia 2nd determi- Ration to remain tif ible. But the main and the Convention with beth in, it might as well be said as thought that no man could preach in the South which erland, Hand poim with him. for he did not care for s!avery or the Gigneral Axsemby, was that he wished to roofs course was to be pursued in regard to the shiny Church property which was io t General Assembly, he also asked of De ia regard to a committee which wes Cleveland by the Southern members vestigate the manner in which the urch property was held. Various gratiemen responded to the interroza- tory made by Dr. Smith, te the effect that such a committee bad been a; nted to take into con- sideration the manner in which al! the church reperty at the South Was held. but not particu- -¥ with reference to that of Washington Rev. Mr. Mitchell helieved that in all Missouri not ten ministers could be found who would ad- bere to the Cleveland Assembiv. Rev. Mr. Geatlan now moved that the Svnod take, @ recess until five o'clock; which motion wasearried RYENING SEssiox The Synod metaga So’clock. and the Mod- erater announced that the snbject before the a=aeo the resolution offered by the Rev Dr Noe as asubstitute for the report of the ou the Minutes of the General Assem- reget of several members the resoln- tion fain read Mr. James Edwards, of the Columbian Col- adhering to the measures of the Cleveland As- sembly. The objection about the church prop- erty amounted to just nothing at all. ev, Mr. Grattan remarked that the gentlemen who brought up pleas of precipitate action could not reasonably complain of want of time to con- sider the matter; had abundant time. There had been a convention at Richmond. which lasted he could not say how long, and they all left it in disgust. He had not understood. Brother Haskell to say that hisown mind was not made up as to the final issue. Objection had been made to postponing the matter, and he thought that the arguments in favor of decisive action were conclusive. What was the object to be attained by postponement? Nothing bai leay- ing the strife, which must be met, face to face, some day, to grow and ripen under the influence of agitation, ia c. joces ealculated to aug- ment the divided state of feeling in relation to the matter. The man who would hesitate to act, in a matter so seriously compromising the inter- ests of the Church in the South. held himself up a fit subject for contempt. The minds of the Presbytery of Virginia were made up, and it onty remained for the District Presbytery to decide whether they would go off with the South, and thereby repudiate the action of the abolition fac- tion. ‘It was to be ho that they would do so at once. The Virginia Presbytery would be ex- tremely reluctant to part from their District brethren, whom they loved, and to whom they felt bound by strong ties of brotherly affection. It was clear that the District Presbytery and the whole South bad nothing now in common with the General Assembly. ‘None of the churches in Virginia had any connection with the General Assembly, in a finaneiai point of view; therefore, they were decided to There could be no pos- sibility of ay hesjtation in transfering the — erty of the District Presbytery tothe South. The faction which bad brought about the division in the General Assembly were willing and anxious to be rid of the South in the Assembly. What- ever the General Assembly of Virginia might do, he would never go into an assembly of the Pres- bytery again whieh had any connection with the Cleveland Assembly. Mr. Haskell Wished to give more explicit rea- sons why he did not feel called hy to act at once in this matter. One was that he had been deeply engaged as recording clerk of the Synod and bad had no time to collect his ideas in a propor manuer to decide upon the matter with so xfeat precipitancy. He wished to do right and not to violate his conscience in the matter. While he regarded a man without a conscience as a fraction of a man, he regarded one with a con- science improperly exercised to be equally so. He had too high a regard for the conscience of the Christian world to take the step which had been advocated under the auspices through which it was presented. Toe gentleinen bad all spoken their opinions at the Richmond convention, and they had gone forth to the world. ‘Two Presby- teries had already acted in the matter. He con- sidered the difficulty so great as to what Position the Presbytery would occupy in case they receded from the General Assembly that he felt it neces- sary to hesitate yravely beforetaking sochastep ‘Phree-fourths of the material support which he bad received to aid him i establishing the work of the Gospel in a destitute part of this city had been the gift of those who would not like to see his charch become an-extreme Southern church He went on to say that he could not conscien- ciously endorse the sentiments contained in the Teport. When he thonzht of the claims of every human being on the Gospel he must repeat that he entered bis solemn protest against the Project of withd:awal from the General Assembly. He held out the olive branch of peace to the Synod, and hoped they would ‘ea few days of grace to the trict Presbytery, who were rather slow coaches and desited to move rightly in the mat- ter Mr. Mitchell made some strong remarks sus- taining the report, and stated that he wished to know whether the District Presbytery would go oi with the beet ey new Synod. Three Pres- byteries would form a Synod, and they had al- ready two. If the District Presbytery would go with them, they would thereby preserve the in- tegrity of the Synod; but if they did not, they Were prepared to meet the crisis. He held in his hand the papers in connection with the Hanover Presbytery, whereiu they proposed to form them- selves into two Presbyteries. ‘They would then be prepared to meet the issue. W hile they wonld deeply deplore the dissent of the District Presby- tery tothe measure, they could get along with- out them if they were adverse to the withdrawal from the General Assembly. Mr. Carothers stated, in reply to Mr. Mitchell’s remarks, that the congregations Lad not been heard in this matter in the District; that at the last meeting of that Presbytery there were but four ministers present, and that the great major- ity of that Presbytery were elders, so that it was very evident that had they any desire to move on this subject they were not prevented by any over Z Movement. Mitchell had reference especially to the ns decland felt a strong desire for a short peas; stating ax a reason the fact that he was quite hungry, aud wanted his Supper. (Laugh- ter.) Mr. Carothers moved a recess till after evening rvice Several gentlemen opposed this, on the ground that they hod just got up from dinner. Dr. Sunderland thought that, notwithstanding these reasons, be wanted his supper. Dr. Reed moved that acommittee be appointed to bing ittohim. (Laughter.) Dr. Reed, in reply to a remark of Mr. Haskell, said that he had seen vood omens attending this movement; and he stated a number of conversa- tious resulting from efforts made during the ses- sion of the Richmond Convention, which he reyarded as marked and striking evidence that the Lord was on their side, and that His favor rested mpon the attempt to cut loose from the Cleveland Abolition Assembly. Mr. Cumpster seconded Dr. Reed in this idea, alse nz tustances which he regarded as showing ihe same. He then went into a general discussion, a unanimous vote in favor of oking that i se; plain intima- will of the Almighty in completing ession. Mr. Leyburn of Rieymond, wanted to know if Mr. Newlin contemplated in his substitute to cont'aue connection with the Cleveland Assem- bly? in either case an mediate sever- 2 leveland Assembly would leave Ta year until the Assembly should »peration. As to the question been contributed at the North churches, it was given where 1 a that the District Presby tery pursued the course recommended now by the Richmond Convention, that it would be no breach of faith for them to go with the seces- sion. He ed that be had been lookiag at the Methodist and Baptist churehes, and had found that while the Southern branches of these churches had increased in membership and contributions to all benevolent objects, the Northern branches had been steadily decreasing in these points, and be thought that this was another eviderice of the favor of Gud on such a movement, and of bis dis- approbation of an agitation of this vexed question. Mr. Haskell wished to know of Dr. Reed whe- ther it was a religious or secular paper which inflieted that tirade upon him for his statement that he bad seen the favor of God upon the seces- sion movement ; also, he wonld ask of the last speaker his authority for his remarks on the rela- tive positions of the Northern and Southern brarcbes of the Methodist and Baptist C ches, -\ motion was made and seconded to bave a re- cess and was withd-awn for— Mr. Mitehell, who sugested that in conformi- \y fo the enstein in such cases, that previous to the vote on the main question, a short xeason be lent prayer for the blessing of God on plated movement * seanion then adjourned for the religious exercises of the evening Atter the religious exercises of the evening were closed, the Synod came to order, and re- sumed the subject which bad been under cons eration when the recess was ordered. The ques- tioa was called on the substitute which had been presented by Mr. Newlin, and resulted in its rejection by a vote of 5 to 29. Then the previous question was called, viz: the report of the committee on the minutes of the General Assembly, which resulted in its adop- thon by a vote of 30 to 3. The following resolutions were then adopted, tive wore : Resoived, That the Synod of Virginia a as @ whole of the resolutions adopted by t! veation ofa in Rich e prove con- ie of our church, which lately , Va. hat we will cordially co-operate in the o:ganization of the United Synod of the Pres- bvterian Charch, which isto meet in Knoxville, ‘Tenn, on the fiewt Thorsdsy in April next.

Handy Nactr’s Comepians.—The charming little troupe of juveniles now performing at Odd Fel- lows’ Hall, drew their best house of all last night, showing that they have the worth to wear well; and among the audience we noticed not a few who very rarely visit Theatrical performances, but who make an exception in favor of these be- witching little folks, who perform their parts with such spirit and unexeeptionabie good taste To-night they have a fine bill, inclnding the laughable farces of ‘The Day After the Wed- ding” and ‘Crossing the Line.’ By the way, we hear that the managers of this company have it in contemplation to fit up some suitable build- ing (perhaps the Washington Assembly Rooms) for Theatrical purposes, to enable them to bring out aclass of pieces which the capabilities of their present quarters will not permit them to represent. Wethink the project a good one, and these gentlemen are admirably fitted by their en- terprise, judgment, and good taste, to succeed in it. Ropaine 4 Buinp Man.—Nancy Phillips and her son Wm. G. Phillips, who is blind, eame from Baltimore to this city on Thursday night, and took lodgings at a German house near Third street and Maryland avenne. ‘The son had with him over $100.” The mother missed him, and on search found him at a honee on Third street of rather doubtful character, and while here the old lady saw Catharine O. Rose, one of the intimates of the house, pick her son’s pocket of his money. Mrs. Phillips thereupon procured the assist of Officers Yeatman and McHenry, of the Fourth district, who went to the house and arrested Catharine. In conducting her to the magistrate’s they were set upon by aman named Allen ’omp- son, who attempted her rescue. He also was taken in charge. and both were carried to the office of Justice Goddard, who sent them to jail for trial at court—one for stealing, and the other for attempting a rescue. Firing Pistors ast night a number of young men were amusing themselves in street- pistol-firing practice. Captain Mills came upon them and tried to find out who fired; but the young men seemed inclined to throw off; and one wanted to kuow what right the Captain bad to interrovate him? The Captain. knowing that the pistol was fired from the party, arrested two of them, and took them to the Guard-honse. inform- ing them that, after a night’s rest, they would robably be more willing to answer the qnestion. ‘his morning Justice Donn held them to bail to answer the charge of riot and disorderly conduct. Livety.—Last night the auxiliary guard came upon a number of young men, who having been indulging rather freely were so very mirthful as to disturb the peace and quict of the city. The advice of their friends to be more moderate in their mirth having no effect, the guards arrested them and placed them in the guard house. ‘This morning they were released with a fine and costs of $3 44 each.
