Hostetler's Stomach Bitters are not only an emi-
■enLy wholesome tonic, but they rectify with
most satisfactory pr mptitudq derangements of
the stomach, liver and bowels which are incom
patible with a return of health and strength*
When the system is enfeebled by disease, by the
wear and tear of business life, by continuous
mental anxiety, bv the exhaustion consequent
upon late hours and fast living, by over-worked
sind by sedentary habits, the Bitters are the most
reliable medicinal agent for imparting permanent
vigor to the debilitated frame. The new stock of
vitality which they infuse into broken down
physique, and the orderly action which they
establish among the organs of digestion, secre
tion and evacuation, moreover, constitute its best
safeguard against malarial disease.

A Decision that Pat. Over $100,000 in

The following highly important decision
was rendered by the Supreme Court of
Georgia, at Atlanta, on Friday, the 12th
inst. This is a decision which interests a
large number of our people, and ia of great
pecuniary advantage to the city :
Wayne, administrator, et al., vs. the city of
Savannah. Injunction from Chatham.
Bleckley, J.
1. As matter of public policy founded on
the exigencies of government, municipal
corporationa must have present command
of their current revenues.
Property holders who have paid, whether
voluntarily or by coercion, illegal taxes in
former years have no right to set off (by
injunction or otherwise) such payments
against executions issued for the taxes of
later years.
2. The remedy of injunction to restrict
the collection of municipal taxes upon real
estate, regularly assessed in pursuance of
general ordinances to raise revenue for the
current wants of the city, which ordinances
are attacked for th6 sole reason that they
do not burden all taxable property alike, is
subject to the sound discretion of tho Chan
cellor; and when he has exercised his dis
cretion by refusing the injunction, and the
grounds of his judgment have a direct bear
ing upon nearly the entire mass of property
over which the taxing power is exercised,
and involve, therefore, the whole system of
municipal finance, this court will not for
any reason, disturb so wise and conserva
tive an administration of the injunction law.
Judgment afiirmed.
R. R. Richards for plaintiff in error.
William S. Basinger for defendant.
Fine Stevedoring—A Well I.onded Vessel.
The bark Velocity, Captain B. Olsen,which
sailed for Liverpool yesterday, carries a car
go of 1,769 bales of cotton, weighing 801,090
pounds, furnished by Messrs. Holst, Fullar-
ton A Co. We learn from Captain Olsen
that this cotton was stowed by Mr. Franz
Bergmann, who has proven himself a thor
ough stevedore, and runs a well disciplined
gang. The work was not only done quiok,
bat well and thoroughly, and Captain Olsen
expresses himself more than pleased. Mr.
Bergmann, we understand, has bnt recently
entered the business in this port, although
having considerable experience in the work,
bnt the admirable and satisfactory manner
in which ho has loaded this vessel, and the
high enconiums of Captain Olsen, will, we
doubt not, bring him many orders aud keep
him and his force busy.
Arrlvnl of n New Competitor for Aquatic
Honors.
We noticed among freight per steamer
Magnolia, which arrived here yesterday
morning, the yacht Lurline. She was built
by the celebrated boat bnildera Messrs.E. A.
A W. H. Ely, of Hamburg, Connecticut, for
a young gentleman of this city. We under
stand she will be taken to Montgomery in
time to enter the regatta to-day, and no
donbt will prove herself no mean competi
tor. Her model ia most perfect, being
built after the pattern of the fastest yachts
in Northern waters. Her length is 20 feet,
beam 9 feet.
Guards to the Centennial.
The Savannah Volunteer Guards hold a
meeting to-Dight to determine definitely
about going to Charleston to attend the
Fort Moultrie Centennial next month. The
members of the corps are almost unani
mously in favor of going and it is to be
hoped that they will be able to make the
necessary arrangements to-night. Every
member, honorary, exempt, pay and active,
should make a special effort to attend the
meeting. The military of Charleston ex
pect the Guards to be present and they
should not fail to go.
Death of Namael D. Dickson, Esq.
Mr. Samuel D. Dickson, a well known
citizen, died in this city on Sunday evening,
after a short illness, in the seventv-fourth
year of his age. Mr. D. was a native of
Vewburgh, N. Y., bnt came South in 1818,
and settled in Charleston, S. C., where he
for many years carried on a large grocery
business. In 18S2 he removed to this city
and engaged in the same business up to the
year 1881. Three of hia Bons arrived here
yesterday, and the remains will be taken to
iiis native plaoe to-day by the steamship
Oen. Barnes for intermont.
Postponement,
The anniversary of the Young Men’s Liter
rary Association, which was to have been
commemorated last evening at Armory Hall
by an address from our distinguished towns
man, Hon. Ruius E. Lester, was necessarily
postponed on account of the extreme in
clemency of the weather. This was a great
disappointment not only to the members of
the society bnt those who had been tempted
by the treat promised to venture forth de
spite the threatening weather. Due notice
of the time and place when the address will
be given will appear in the Mobnino News.

methods of conducting the ednoation of
candidates for the ministry are desirable,
submitted au elaborate report, which was
appropriately r eferred.
The report of the Directors and Faculty
of the Tneologicai Seminary at Columbia
was read and referred to the standing Com
mittee on Theological Seminaries.
A letter from Rev. Dr. Marshall, of Texas,
as to his attendance upon the session of the
last General Assembly of the Cumberland
Presbyterian Church, waa read and ap
proved.
THE IMPORTANT QUESTION.
The Moderator announced the disenssion
of the resolutions reported by the Com
mittee on Bills and Overtures in reference
to the Pan-Presbyterian Council, (which was
continued over from Saturday night, when
Dr. Adger and Dr. Smoot spoke), to be now
iu order, and that Rev. John S. Park, of
Memphis, had the floor.
Having presented a sketch of the re
marks ot Dr. Robinson, who is the leader of
those favoring the Pan-Presbytery move
ment, we herewith give a sketch of the
speech of Rev. Dr. Adger, of South Caro-
hna, who appears to lead the opposition:
Dr. Adger, replying to Dr. Stuart Robin
son, said that hia old friend was incapable
of tricks, and yet that it wae hardly fair for
him to make capital oat of the unanimity of
the Committee of BillB and Overtures, and
claim upon that ground that the assembly
would certainly sustain nim. He had told
us there was no opposition—we were all
agreed—aud yet had gone on to speak of his
own astonishment at the opposition aronsed,
aud that amongst the very men he most re
spected—the jure divino Presbyterian men
with Whom he had always acted. He had
claimed that the assembly of 1874 was not
against him, but for him, for it insisted on
our co-ordination witli church courts only,
aud not voluntary associations; that the
assembly was all right, in his judg
ment, on this point. Bnt, then, it
Bald this Alliance was no church
court. So we have been saying that assem
bly was all right, but that assembly saying
he ia all wrong. They said we can deal only
with churches; he tells you the Alliance was
“ merely conferentisl,” where “votes were
of no importance,” a mere “ advisory ”
body (which has too much of the Congrega-
tlonaliBt twaog for him or for us), an asso
ciation “you may go into and go out of
whenever you please.”
Then my brother says this is a step to
wards the true and proper Ecumenical
Council, and will grow into it. Am I to tell
him how necessary it ia for your first step to
be a right step, aod how hard it ia to go
back and oorrect a wrong beginning ? He
claims that we have the same right to go
into this Alliance as into the Baltimore
Conference. Lst me ask what would
our church have said to the Balti
more Conference had it made an Alliance
lor as with a constitution and all. He says
your constitution has nothing warranting
the Alliance—it has nothing which warrants
Foreign Missions, But Foreign Missions
are in the Bible, and is not the Bible a part
aud the very foundation part of a jure
divino Presbyterian constitution ? Let him
show us that any such body as the Alliance
is in those scriptures which (nobody better
knows than my brother) do reveal the sys
tem of our church courts. He admits there
Is “Rationalism in those bodies,” but says
neighbors may have social intercourse with
out being responsible for one another’s ideas.
Is it mere “neighboring” to go aud take part
with Rationalists in regulating all the great
matters which this Alliance entertains? He
says it is “none of the business” of our Pres-
byterieB, but of the assembly alone, to deter
mine this question, and he ridiculed the de
liverance of one of the Presbyteries which
have overtured ua about it. But did not this
whole matter begin in the Presbyteries and
come here by overtures from them? And will
. a strict constructionist, like my brother,
deny that wherever our book undertakes to
prescribe the powers of the assembly that
it limits them on those matters ? Would he
allow our assembly to take original jurisdic
tion over a minister ? And when the book
says the assembly may correspond, would he
admit that it cau unite, as with other bodies?
The constitution defines clearly wfiat the
assembly may and may not do on sundry
points aud thou how does it close up on the
E owers of the assembly ? Why, by presort
ing in the famous section II. that before any
new constitutional rules may be made the
Presbyteries must be consulted. Now which
is the greater stretch of this assembly’s
power, to make a new rule or to carry us
bodily into a new church ?
Then we were told of the claims on our
sympathy and protection of the foeble and
oppressed Presbyterians of the continent,
and how they had said in the Alliance that
they looked to it as to protectors and “big
brothers.” Moderator, I ask if our poor
chnrch looks like anybody’s “big brother?”
Go over to South Carolina and ask the Pres
byterians there if they do not themselves
need a “tig brother." Well, we have got
one above and we depend on Him only.
Now my brother found it difficult
to tell us whether the Alliance is
a ohurch or a mere advisory body.
Ho says it is a Queen—yes, twelve Queens
ail in one, and entitled to some of the
consideration due to a proper Ecumenical
Council. He holds up to us a beantiful,
nay, a dazzling picture of its glory. It is
important for ns to ascertain if all the ad
vantages he promises are likely to be re
alized. The only way of judging, that I
know of, is to look not at the spoken repre
sentations of au earnest speaker, but to ex
amine the written constitution of the Alli
ance. And now with this before ns cao we
bold the Alliance to be such a church court
as we can agree to come under ? I find that
it has a great name—“ Tue Alliance of the
Reformed Chnrobes Throughout the World
Holding the Presbyterian SyBtem.” Whether
we go into it or not, it is the Alliance of the
Reformed throughoul the world, aud if tfiia is
its just title, then we are self excluded as not
of the Reformed, and as not holding the
Presbyterian system unless we consent to
accept a share of this glory. Again, I find
that it has conditions of admission; meets
statedly; has a Preeident aud other offioers;
adopts a certain method of apportioning the
votes to be cast at its meetings; undertakes
great and numerous works ana duties; has
a binding constitution that can never b*.)
changed, except at its triennial meetings
and by a two-thirda vote; and while it de
clares that it will not interfere with the in
ternal affairs or external relations of its
constituent churches—though laying its
hands upon the most vital interests of
Christianity in the world; yet Bends its an
nual minutes of proceedings to the supreme
coarts of all the chnrches it has agreed to
receive into its membership.
Noy, surely this is considerable of a body,
of an organism, whether it is or is not any
thing of a church or anything of the trne and
Droper Ecumenical Council. And now let ns
look at what are the objects and the pow
ers it assumes. My brother undertook to
distinguish between these words iu order
to remove Dr. J. Leighton Wilson’s objec
tion that it claims the right to “distribute
miBsion work,” and "combine churoh ener
gies” for the evangelization of the world.
He said that would be found put down as
one of the objects, but not one ot the
powers of the Alliance. But what la the
use or value of objects without powers to
attain them, or of powers without objects
on which to exercise them ? No, Moderator,
that distinction will not answer. And it
must be acknowledged that the Alliance
lavs claim to the most important and vital
of all the interests of the church of Christ
as the objects on which it is to exercise its
powers. It will distribute mission work,
and it will combine church energies—
mark the force of those tremendous
expressions. Yes, and it will “entertain all
subjects directly connected with the train
ing of ministers, the use of the press, and
the religious instruction of the young.”
These are certainly very serious and delicate
subjects it presumes to handle, and its claim
of powers might satisfy the loftiest ambi-
tion. *
And now I wish to ask my brother, how
dops it happen if this Alliance be a church
that it can be so easy to get out of it as he
says ? I never Heard bpfoyp of a church
separation from which so unceremoniously
would be a right thing and no schism.
Again I would ask how, if a chnrch or a
church court, it can be the mere advisory
body, the pnrely conferentisl meeting, he
alleges tjjat it ia ?
Again, if it be a qkurph court and that
one of Buch lofty powers,-where are the full
provisions needful in its constitution to
guide it and check it, qn4 restrain it which
our constitution provides for our highest
court ? Does this assembly need to bare
suoh cheeks and restraints, aud does this
Alliance need none ?
These are some of the difficulties in
my brother’s way, when be' would say the
Alliance is a church, and that it is constitu
tional to correspond with it, and even to
jotoit.
Pat when he says it is only an advisory
and ont of it freely come, then
if it be not a church court why does
him
it act
on moral and religious questions * Does not
my brother continue still to hold with all
jure divino Presbyterians that in moral and
religious matters we want absolutely no as
sociation whatsoever except the Churoh of
Ohrist in her courts ?
Again I ask if not a church oourt but only
a conference, if my brother and his asso
ciates in the .Alliance went there only to
confer, why did they make an allianoe and a
constitution for it well nigh unchangeable 7
And again I ask if it was only a step taken
towards the true aud proper Ecumenical
Council why did it Dot say one word iu its
constitution about suoh a council 1
Such being the indefinite and uncertain
nature of this Alliance, are we prepared to
go iDto it againat the wide-spread dissatis
faction which the action of the late assembly
haa awakened? We hear of it from Vir
ginia, from Kentucky, from Mississippi
from Louisiana, from North Carolina anc
from South Carolina—through the press in
various forms of utteranoe, and from
different Presbyteries and at least one
Synod. And now, are we prepared against
all this manifested opposition, and with a
much divided vote in this assembly and
withont clear constitutional authority, are
we prepared to carry our church into thia
Alliance, the objects and powers of whioh
are ao vital and so vast, and the character
of It so indefinite and so uncertain ?
Having thus followed my brother through
his long and very interesting and eloquent
speech, pointing out what appeared to me
to contain that which was open to criticism,
I desire now to proceed aud suggest to my
brethren of this assembly a few other con
siderations bearing on the question before
us.
Moderator, the spirit of our age is latitu*
dmanan, and this tendency is increasing.
Not what is orthodox is honored now, bnt
what is liberal. Once heresy was held to be
evil, now the only bad thing is bigotry.
There is loud outcry against sectarianism,
while our times swing round to the utmost
laxity of religious opinion.
Let me give you two or three specimens:
1. It haa been gravely proposed and seri
ously urged iu Northern religious papers,
Presbyterian and Congregationalism that
these bodies are so nearly one that it be
comes their duty to be united.
2. The Presbyterian Assembly of the
North, at Brookiyo, is now discussing
whether they shall not take back the testi
mony of 1845, at Cincinnati, under Dr.
Thornwell, against the validity of Romish
baptism.
3. A Presbyterian chnrch comer Btone
was laid recently in Boston and ministers
of various Christian denominations were
invited to take part in the proceedings. I
did so. Amongst others came a Universaliat
brother, the Rev. Dr. Miner, and he wel
comed the new ohurch into the fellowship
of his people. He said : “ They have a way
of thinking over there at their corner,
which does them good ; just as you have a
way of thinking here at your oorner, which
does you good; but it is all one work;" and
so at the cloae he dismisses the assembly—
this Universalist brother—with his apostoli
cal benediction.
Such is the spirit of this age. All who
call themselves Christians, whether they
hold to Christian doctrine or not, most come
together and be one. Thia is what the age
demands, and we must not scrutinize closely
any of the schemes proposed in this liberal
and lax time respecting Christian union.
But if we should venture to exercise this
right or perform this duty, we must expeot
to be oalled bigot and pharisee.
But is not Christian uuiou a good thing ?
Certainly. And is not the close and
strict union of ail trne Presbyterians both
good and dssii able ? Most assuredly. And
Dr. McCosh, tho President ot the Allianoe,
was not, by many, the first who expressed
this desirableness. Calvin and Melville and
Henderson and Gillespie and R. J. Breckin
ridge—yes, and our own Stuart Robinson
and Ben Palmer—all expressed the earnest
wish and desire for the union of all Presby
terians in the wLole world, and the latest of
them long before thiB Alliance was thought
of. Here is what Breckinridge said in 1840 :
“There is no glory now within the reach of
some great, heaven-inspired man equal to
that of uniting together the different Pres
byterian bodies of the earth.” Bat what
was it which all these, our trusted leaders,
desired? Sir, it was the true and proper
Ecumenical Council. This is what Calvin
aud the Second Book of Discipline ol the
Scotch and Gillespie, and all the others
wanted, and what my brother tells you that
he wanta. But that would be a very different
thing from this alliance. My brother quoted
Dr. Thornwell as saying that a church is
self-condemned which does not expect itself
to spread over the whole earth; but Dr.
Thornwell does not say that he wants our
divinely revealed system of church govern
ment to be spread over the world in the
shape of an advisory body, into which and
out of which you may come and go at your
pleasure.
Now the true aud proper Ecu
menical Council was, and ia, and prob
ably will continue to be, an impossibility.
Differences of race, language, nationality,
aud also distance and expense mast needs
keep ns separate, and in a sense isolated,
while yet really one. All these are legiti
mate grounds of separation and they do not
destroy true union. The chronic state of
Europe is war and we have passed through
war, too, and now when there are contend
ing Ctesara can Christian people, rendering
to CjDsar his thiDgs, be formally
united .in visible actual confederation.
My brother says that steam makes churches
now able to be one in formal bonds. I say
you must first abolish war. Has not onr
own assembly decided, and rightly, that a
difference of race is a just and legitimate
and necessary ground for separate church
organization? We are therefore, and we
must, perhaps, continue to the end to be
isolated in one Bense Irom our brethren of
our lauds aud races. Gillespie, whom my
brother has studied, and whom he vener
ates, says, (for I conferred with him just
before I came here), that the true visible
union on which the communion of all tho
churches is baaed is not of companying, of
acquaintance, of actual formal union, but
of doctrine aud order. He says the dwellers
of one country make and have the former,
but the latter only ia what must and does
bind together all who are of one faith, and
that the true unity of the visible chnrch is
in the spirit and in faith.
And so, Moderator, the Alliance meets all
the difficulties, but provides not the ad
vantages of a trne and proper, but alas!
impossible Ecumenical union. And ao we,
who do not go Into the Alliance, are no more
isolated than thOBe who enter. What can
the meeting of a few deputies, having no
proper representative authority, effect to
wards a true union of the Presbyterian
ohurohes of the world ? Thia assembly is
the bond of anion for ail our churches, be
cause it has authority representative, and
its action is the action of ns all. But here
ia an Alliance that disclaims authority, and
ia either a mere loose confederation for re
ligious conference and devotion, or else a
dreadful usurper of powers not justly be
longing to it.
But, Moderator, though we shoul 1 not go
info the Alliance, onr hearts are all right to
wards all our brethren. We love ouy
brethren. Our hearts beat responsive to
theirs. And we feel hurt and wounded
by allegations to the contrary. If
we have a testimony to bear that
oompels us to stand apart from some of
them, or if we have conscientious difficulties
that hinder our entering the Alliance we
ought not to be called bad names. And we
beg onr brethren, who are for union with
those outside, that something is due to us
who are already of their body.
We are not enemies of the Alliance, and
we wish it well in all that is good, bnt we
do not feel prepared to be dragged into it
against our judgment if we can legitimately
help it. And I aay that if it ahonld turn out
that the majority here do really favor the
movement they ought to be willing, at least,
to refer it to the Presbyteries by an over
ture to be reported on to the next assembly.
There ia one other point on which I have
a word to aay. We are not lovors of what
ia or what looks sensational. And the Al
liance locks Uko one of the many sensational
movements invented by brethren of
a higher latitude than ours. Is this
a hard Baying? Then listen while
I read from the New York Ecangelist,
when it waa agreed by the Alliance to hold
its next meeting at Edinburg on the second
Tuesday of July, 1876. That happened to
be the Fourth of July, and it was tne Cen
tennial Fourth, ao that the Northern Pres
byterians had to decide between Philadel
phia and the Centennial or Edinburg and
the Alliance. The Evangelist took ground,
therefore, that “our Preabyterian ministers,
St least those of them who oare Io make any
record for the future,” would not be willing
to go to the Allianoe, and it ought to be
postponed, and must be postponed. “Why,”
Baid the Evangelist, “when they have care
fully prepared aud ou the first Sabbath of
July delivered each in his place the histori
cal sermon enjoined upon them as a filial
and patriotic duty by the General Assembly,
their minds will be too full of the inspira
tion of these and other services and scenes
appropriate to the high noon of onr
National Centennial to give attention to
proceedings at Edinbnrg.” Un-
happy Alliance ! You belong to the family
of sensational things, and in the presenee of
a greater sensation you must hide your di-
minished head. The Northern Presbyterian
preacher merges his church iu his country,
and his Presbyterianism in his patriotism.
Edinburg aud the Alliance mast be put off
a whole year till Philadelphia and the Cen
tennial have had their full swing.
But listen to another illustration: The
Alliance, in its published minutes, gives us
a letter from the Rev. D. Bruce, clerk of the
Assembly of the New Zealand Presbyterian
Church. His suggestions have the sanction
ot the Alliance, for tbey have put them into
their minutes. One of these is, “ That the
propriety be cdhaidered of setting apart
men of acknowledged literary talent for the
purpoae of directing their whole time to the
producing of standard and yet telling works
on religious subjects,” etc.
Another is: That it be considered whether
there pould not be established a Pan-Pres
byterian periodica!, io., Ac.
Another is: That it pe considered what
“eight
measures might be taken for conferring
merited Degrees of Honor on clergymen of
the Presbyterian Churoh generally, and
especially on the ooloDies, where the olaims
of clergymen have been all but totally over
looked by the old setas of learning, Ao.
Moderator and brethren, is this the kind
of tiling it becomes us to rush into, with a
load oatory against it, heard all over our
churoh?
Mr. J. i Fork «n
warmly and earnestly
movement, and insisted that agitation
of these important questions was of great in
terest and benefit to the ohnrobv He argued
that the interchange of viawa would result
in great good : that the Southern Presby
terians would beoome better known and un
derstood. He presented forcibly the efflcaoy
of thorough organisation and system in the
choroh, and that this would be brought
about by the proposed oounoil.
Rev. j. Bice Bowman followed In a few
remarks favoring the proposed movement,
and stating that his Presbytery were in fa
vor of it. He had oome into this assembly
with approbation of the movement, and he
had heard nothing to indnoe him to change
hia opinions ; rather he waa the more con
firmed in its favor.
Dr. B. B. White, of Virginia, strenuously
opposed the measure, assuming that its
adoption would be virtually the establish
ment of another court of the church, for
which there waa no authority; that it was
violative of the constitution of the church.
He warned the brethren to take no action
that had the semblance of trenching upon
the constitution. It would be establishing
a dangerous precedent. He presented
cogent argnments in support ol the position
he assumed, and contended that trouble
would ensue from the adoption of the pro
posed measnre.
He was followed by Bev. A. J. Hansell,
of Georgia, who, Whilst not object
ing to the general iasuea of the
measnre, earnestly protested against the
sending of any delegates to that coun
cil withont some provision for their
retirement if they should find they were mis
taken in ita intents. He thought such a
clause should be inserted, that it was essen
tia! to the dignity of this assembly that it
should be.
Rev. W. W. Brimm, of Texas, spoke in
opposition; considered a great expense
would be incurred in securing representa
tion in the conncil withont corresponding
good. That if they had any money to spend,
to give it to some of the several languish
ing Presbyteries at home, where it was
needed.
Rev. R. S. McAllister, of Mississippi, in
some remarks, urging his motion, presented
a resolution to postpone final action upon
this matter nntil the next meeting of the
General Assembly, by whioh time the mem
bers could be better informed in regard to
the constitution and character of thia Pan-
Council and its objects and purposes, aud
could vote more understanding^.
Dr. Adger seconded the resolution and
offered an amendment that the subject he
referred to the several Presbyteries for their
action, to be reported at the next assembly,
supplementing this motion with some re
marks that he thought the Presbyteries
should be consulted on so im
portant a matter. He pledged himself
that if there appeared that a majority of
the Preabyteries favored the measure hie op
position would be withdrawn.
The motion to postpone gave rise to con
siderable opposition, Mr. J. B. Came, of
the Memphis Synod, contending it was not
right to shirk the responsibility in this way
and throw it upon the shoulders of the next
assembly. Every one should be thoroughly
informed about the matter; it had been
freely discussed and he wonld insist upon its
settlement at this session. He was op
posed to it, but if the vote showed that the
majority favored it, he would yield cheerful
acquiescence and have nothing more to say,
but thought it should be settled right here.
The postponement was also opposed by
Dr. Robinson, Mr. Bardweli ana others,
and, on motion of Judge Estes, the resolu
tion was tabled by a large vote.
The discussion will be renewed to-day
with prospect of limiting speeches to ten or
fifteen minutes, and a vote will probably
be reached before adjourument.-
After devotional exercises, the assembly
then adjourned until nine o’clock thia
morning.
NIGHT SESSION.
At the meeting held last night at eight
o’clock, the Committee of Foreign Missions
presented an interesting report, giving to
the assembly a general statement of the
condition of this department of work, and
presenting the question whether or not the
church should go forward in ita prosecu
tion.
Stirring speeches were made by Dr. Adger,
the chairman of the committee, Mr. T. Q.
Casaeie, Drs. Hoge, Robinson and Plumer.
After these speeches the report was re
committed, with instructions to the com
mittee to present in plain words a resolution
pledging the church to go forward in this
work.
The Committee on Theological Seminaries
then presented a report in part, announcing
that Rev. J. L. Girardeau, D. D., had signi
fied hiB acceptance of the chair of Didactic
and Polemic Theology in Columbia Theo
logical Seminary, and appointing to-night
as the time for his inauguration. The re
port was received and adopted.
This occasion vt ill be one of great interest.
The Professor elect is one of the most
learned and eloquent men in hii church.
The ceremonies will consist of an addresB
by Dr. Girardeau himself, which will doubt
less attract many to the church. On behalf
of the asaembly, Dr. Robinson will deliver
the charge to Dr. Girardeau,

Important Action of the Chamber of Com
merce and the Planter*.
A meeting of the Savannah Chamber of
Commerce was held yesterday to take into
consideration a commnnication from the
Charleston Chamber of Commerce, con
taining a preamble and resolutions which
had been adopted by that body in regard
to the proposed removal of duty on
rice, as it is contemplated by the
Hawaiian treaty, and asking the oo-opera-
tion of the Savannah Chamber to defeat the
hill now pending before the United States
Senate.
On motion, a committee of three, consist
ing of Messrs. John Screven, Wm. Neyle
Habersham and D. G. Purse, were appointed
to draft a suitable memorial to be presented
to the United States Senate, in opposition to
the passage of the Hawaiian treaty. The
committee were instructed to appoint a
commissioner to carry the memorial to
Washington and present it to the United
States Senate.
THE PLANTERS.
The meeting of planters and all interest
ed in rice convened at Messrs. R. Haber
sham’s Son A Co.’s office tS eight o’clock,
Colonel John Screven presiding.
The Chairman stated tho purpose for
which the meeting had been called wa9 to
take action npon the resignations of the
delegates originally appointed, who had
started bnt returned to the city after get
ting as far as Yemessee, upon receipt of tele
grams informing them that action would be
delayed upon the House bill for two weeks.
The resignation of Messrs. Carmichael
aud Owens were then read and accepted,
A committee of three, Colonels Clinoh and
Cole and Captain Manigault, were appointed
to name delegates to Washington and the
following resolutions were adopted;
By Dr, Waring^
Resolved, That the ohair have authority
to send delegates selected to Washington,
with power to deter all steps necessary to
defeat the bill now peudiug before the Bame.
By Col. Clinch—
Resolved, That a committee ol seven be
appointed by the chairman to assist the
planting interest and to solicit snbscriptions
from others interested, to defray the ex
penses of the delegation to Washington and
other expenses, and that this committee act
as an executive committee until the matter
is decided.
The chair appointed the following gentle
men as the committee : Col. Clinch, H. F.
Grant, A. E. Moynelo, W. N. Habersham,
W. P, Carmichael, A. S. Barnwell and Lewis
Haskell.
The chair stated that the Chamber of
Commerce had met and appointed a com
mittee to draft resolutions, and empowered
them to appoint and send delegates to
Washington to place them before the Sen
ate. Wherenpon the following resolution
was adopted.
By Mr. A. E. Moynelo—
Resolved, That the planters pay the ex
penses ot any delegates the committee of
the Chamber ol Commerce may appoint to
take the resolution to Washington,
A motion was then made that the dele
gates selected by the oommittee should
leave this (Tuesday) night, but after dis
cussion it was lost.
Captain Haskell stated that Governor
Sam. Arnold, of Rhode Island, had inter
ested himself very much, and had written
letters and promised to nse his influence
with Senators in behalf of the Southern
planters ; when the meeting resolved that
the Secretary return the thanks of the
members to Governor Arnold for his aid.
The meeting then adjourned subject to
the call of the chair.
