Religious Conventions.

--The prospects for the meeting of two important religious Conventions in our city this week, are good, notwithstanding the disturbed condition of public affairs. A number of delegates and visitors arrived yesterday to attend the Convention of the Episcopal Church which began its sessions at St. Paul's, at 11 o'clock yesterday--Bishop Meade preaching the opening sermon. An additional number of delegates are expected to-day.

We hear also that there will be a good attendance at the United Synod of the New School Presbyterian Church, which meets at Rev. C. H. Read's Church, corner of Franklin and 8th streets, to-night, at 8 o'clock. The opening sermon before the United Synod will be delivered by Rev. Dr. Atkinson, of Mississippi, Moderator of the last Synod.
