User-Contributed Transcription decidedly an institution of itself. Building built on purpose for it, and everything fitted for it.In the evening I went to Dr. Post's Church, - the Congregational Church; and heard Dr. Hatfield of New York.The great interest here as all over the country attaches to the Old School Assembly. They have had now about all the time so far a great discussion of National interest, as to what shall be done with certain secessionist Kentuckians upheld by certain Missionaries of the same stripe who have refused to submit to the antislavery & patriotic deliverance of the previous Gen. Assembly.The Matter is not yet decided, and may occupy all this week for aught I know. If the Old School should finally purge itself of this Southern it would I suppose remove the great obstacle to what many of both sides are figuring for, a ReUnion of the N.S. & O.S.
