That the continuous, per sistent and repeated efforts of the Papists throughout the country, under the tntil- age, direction and advice of the papal hierarchy, to obtain control of the school funds in the several States of the Union, or to have a portion of said school fond diverted from the legal and legitimate uses to which said funds are pledged, in order to devote the money to the sup port of the papistical schools, demand from all Protestant Christians of every denomination, and every^citizen of the United States who is opposed to a nnion of church _ and state, a resolute, determined and combined effort and un ceasing watchfulness to prevent the succe33 of the insidious attempt| now being made, in all sections of the country, by the adherents of the papacy to secure control of the school money, and it is hereby recommended by the General As sembly of the Presbyterian Church, that all attempts to subvert our school fands, or divert any portion of the various school funds, in any of the States of the Union, to or for the use of any church or sect, shall be resisted and prevented by all legal and honorable means.

C., May 20.—For sev eral days crowds have been pouring into this town to witness the ceremonies in commemoration of the one hundredth anniversary of the Mecklenburg Declara tion of Independence, and the hotels and private boarding-houses are full to over flowing. At noon yesterday the celebration be gan ; the first event beincr an address by tho Hon. Wm. Johnston, Mayor of Char lotte, who introduced the Hon. Curtis H. Brogdon, Governor of North Carolina, who spoke eloquently for half an hour, extending, at the same time, a hearty welcome to visitors from the different States. To-dav a salute of one hundred guns was fired at noon. The gunner’s hand was shot off accidentally. The weather is delightful. There is an immense crowd, estimated at fifty thousand. The procession moved towards the Carolina Park at 11 a. m., Gen. William R. Cox, chief marshal, and the military organi zations, under command of Gen. Bradley T. Johnson, of Richmond, as follows: Richmond Howitzers, Raleigh Light Ar tillery, First Virginia Regiment, Fay etteville Light Infantry, Fayetteville Brass Band, Fayetteville Independent Light Infantry, Rowan Rifles, from Salis bury ; the remnant of the Eleventh Reg iment, North Carolina State troops; Charlotte, N. C., Zouaves; Johnsen Light Infantry, of Savannah, Ga.; Charlotte Military Institute Cadets, preceded by their band; Newbern Silver Cornet Band; Newbern Steam Fire Comany; Independent Hook and Ladder Com pany, with bond; Fairfield, S.

Thomas L. Cling- man, Col. John H. Wheeler. Next come a delegation of Scotchmen from Cumber land and Robeson counties, immortal as the scene of Flora McDonald’s devoted loyalty, with bagpipes and banner with the lion rampant in tha centre and the Scotch thistle at each comer. Lastly the citizens generally in a vast multitude. Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, who was ap pointed to act as marshal, wa3 detained at home by sickness, and a brilliant array of assistant marshal sustained Gen. Cox, and enabled him to keep the vast con course of people in order. The procession reached the Fair Grounds at 12 w. where the ceremonies were announced to take place. The streets through which its course lay were crowded with people, and tho houses along the route were hand somely and profusely decorated. At the Fair Grounds a large platform had been erected for the oratprs, marshall and in vited guests, the front of which was or namented with a number of bornet’a pasta in commemoration of the histori an's description of the people of Meck lenburg during the Revolution. Gov. Wm. A. Graham, whose father was one of the signers of the Mectlen- burg Declaration and a distinguished soldier of the revolution, conducted the ceremony and introduced the speakers, first making an elegant little speech per tinent to the occasion. After prayer by Rev. Dr. Miller, of Charlotte, Major Seaton Gales read the Mecklenburg Dec laration of Independence, prefacing it with a neat and timely speech, which brought round after round of applause from the audience. The orators of the diy. Hon. John Kerr, on the port of North Carolina, and Hon. J. M. Bright, on the part of Tennessee, were then intro duced. Each spoke about one hour, elo quently defending the Mecklenburg Dec laration, the State of North Carolina and the Sonth, and claiming that the people of this State and section were loyal to the government, and would so remain, provided constitutional guarantees were not violated. A synopsis of these able and beautiful efforts is not possible. After the orators concluded loud calls were made for Hendricks and Vance. The latter responded briefly and in his happy manner. As the Governor was concluding the platform gave way, and precipitated the speaker an J a number of the distinguished guests to the ground. Fortunately no one was hurt, and Vance finished with the remark that he always succeeded in bringing down the house. The speaking having been concluded, the various organizations and the invited guests were marched to Floral Hall, where a handsome collation had been prepared. Abont three thousand per sons had their appetites here, satisfied, and upon the conclusion of the banquet, a number of telegrams were read by Mayor Johnston, of Charlotte, including sue from the National Centennial Com mittee, expressing congratulations, and another from the Convention of the Pro testant Episcopal Church, now in session at Newbern, N. C., of a similar congrat ulatory character. In response to lond calls, Gov. Hen dricks, of Indiana, arose and addressed the assemblage, the toast being the Uni ted States He declared in favor of the sovereignty of the States, while ac knowledging the paramount authority of the General Government, and said no true union could exist until this great principle was firmly established and con stitutional limitations of power were re spected. The speaker was frequently interrupted by prolonged applause, and the greatest enthusiasm was manifested daring the continance of his remarks. Gen. Bradley T- Johnson was then call ed to the stand, and paid a glowing com pliment to North Carolina, Baying that her people were the first rebels in this country, and they would ever be found rebellious when their rights were in fringed. Gov. Brogdon followed Gen, Johnson, after which the assembly shortly dis persed. Financial and Commercial OFFICE TELEGRAPH AND MESSENGER,, Mat 22, IVllIK), 1879. J Produce Market Report.

As a place of resort for health and pleasure seekers, THIS SPRING CANNOT BE SUR PASSED Posiessing.asit does,waters acknowl edged by all to have superior medicinal qualities, located in a mountainous country, noted for its health-giving properties, with a cool, bracing cli mate-pronounced by the chief of a Geological Surrey (under Jefferson’s administration) to be the finest in the United States—easy of acoess, and with board tokuit the stringency of the times, it offers advantages which recommend them selves to those who wish to find health, pleasure, and all the comforts of home. Since last season several new cabins hare been erected, the original buildings renovated, and the grounds improved. My table shall be supplied with the very best, and everything in my power done to secure the comfort and enjoyment of my patrons. In proof of my ability ana willingness to accomplish what I propose, I refer to the patrons of the Kimball House under my admin istration. These embraced the best citizens of the South, North and Northwest. The usual accessories of Springs—Music, Ten- Pin Alley, Billiard Room, etc.—will be fuund here. The most important and enjoyable feature trill be a bathing pool, 20 by 40 feet, that I propose to erect especially for ihe use of ladies. Another feature, which will commend itself es pecially to invalids, is its accessibility, the depot being within three hundred yards of the hotel. Business men will be able to get their mails and telegrams regularly. With a determination to please, polite and at tentive clerks, well drilled servants, excellent fare and good beds, I ask and hope to receive the patronage of my friends and tha public generally.
