This was the cause of the interrnp- tion : Rev. C. O. Brown, of South Caro- 1 mi. brought in a report upon mission w rit aim.-.:;; the negroes, which con tained the following sentences: If it be true that we have to give ac- •o-unt to li >d for our treatment of the m-uroes. just as for our treatment of the decalogue, the part of the home boards’ report that deals with the question of work among the negroes will be dnina- iigiiu evidence to us in the day of the great assize. The writer of the report snows considerable ingenuity, and has easily made it possible lor us who are doing nothing for the negroes to flatter ourselves over the fact that we are re ally doing a great deal. The report telis us how much the negroes gained by being made slaves ; bow they rose grad ually from burbarisin; how, in ex change for a very meager language, they received our tongue, "rich with po.ls of time;" how sleeping facul de P re ® a *® the language which deep religious fervor aud fitness of the sa .gte? d?..;?;I«*-«■. s.bb«h» mission board.

I have never found the man who did not believe that under the providence of God, slavery, southern slavery, had proved to be a benefit to the enslaved race. They were brought to this country in an absolutely barburic state, and iu relation which they sustained to the white people of the south, they took on a great measure of the civilization of the white people. They had opportunities for religious instruction, aud when the day of emancipation came—I thank God ties were aroused ami new tastes and desire* imparted; and how Christian melodies banished from their cabin homes the voodooisui of the fatherlaud. To this is added what our convention should not allow to go uiichallenge 1, viz., a statement of what our state gov ernment are doing for the negroes iu the way of education. The fact that a part of the public taxes is expended in their behalf can nexer answer the question, what are Baptist churches doing for the .salvation of the negroes? The third paragraph of the report jilt’s tlie rendition of the negro before r.s in a very good light. It seems ac- •cordiiig to the report, that they suffer tioiii some few dprtriual errors, and many of their jireachers are uot exactly pr.-jwred to preach, but even with this, they are rapidly being evangelized. Tnoir ratio of church membership is si i to be greater than ours, aud they are very well supplied with houses of wor.-hip. The rejiort co-. es to a mild aud modest close by sayi 'g if men and m ney c.mld lie found a plentiful liur- ve t would be reaped from this field; but there is no jiroiuise that one of the secreturiis is going to take the field, or that anvtning at all will be doue more than lias been done, which amounts vir tually to not king. Turning aside now from the survey of u rejiort which only helps us all to keep q lie: and continue in the good work of cuing nothing, let Us see it iherenre not s ■ no other facts that ought tobecoaai 1- er. d. The negroes are still in a deplor able condition’.' Their homes, in m ist •.•uses, are habitations of vice, aud many of their churches are in extreme con fusion and corruption. Marriage is too generally regarded as having no bindiiij. obligation except as law compels ir. To day they virtually have a niouorx ly in the south, at least, of the jail, the dun geon. the gallows aud their social life \ rites no laws which shut off the virtu ous from the vicious or the honest from the dishonest. And to stay this tide of corruption •ml ruin, what are southern Baptists lining? Here and there iu a Christian home a lit gro is taught about God; here mid there some faithful one may have a c'.i ss in a negro Sunday school, or u pastor may give a spare hour to a ser ver in a negro church. But as a great denomination and the denomination widen the tn groes seem most naturally to take to—we are doing almost nothing »t all. Here and there a good brother holding an occasional something called an institute, a sort of anauiolous aggre- gatton that cannot be explained by re- ltrring to a likeness of auythiug in heaven or on eartu, or iu the waters an tler the earth. Continuing, Mr. Brown charges great deal of the existing '.rouble to the fact that their jireachers are uot proper ly prepared for their work, in the way of education; and suggests that instead of giving expression to such laments us "O. if we hud some money and some nieu r It would be better to use simi lar methods to those employed in the Cuban work, and try to help them out by helping to educate the negro minis try. Mr. Brown closed his report with the rvnuirk that "the negroes are going to the dojjs and the devil.’ Then it was that Dr. Hawthorne, whose voice is never silent when his t'hureh or his people are assailed, said 1 desire to ask Mr. President, how many of the committee sigued that re- pori?"

London, May 9.—Quite a serious riot occurred Saturday at the Castleden col liery, near Hartlepool The trouble srvw out of the employment of a non- unionist named Stookdale. The union men attacked him Saturday evening as he was leaving his work and would no doubt, have seriously injured aim had it not been for interference of the police. Tue rioters then tnrned their atten tion to the latter aud hurled a shower of stones at them. A number of police men were struck by the missies and in jured. Stookdale took to his heels, and ran to his home. The mob was in strong force and finding that Stookdale had tem porarily escaped them, rushed to colliery and smashed the engiue house to pieces. The houses of officials were next at tacked and torn to the ground. The occupants, however, had been warned in time, and made their escape before the rioters rushed through. Another house, in which an official of the mine resided, was set on fire and burned. Satisfied for the time being, with the destruction they had wrought, the rioters withdrew.

Dr. Bristol of Chicago called for the order of the day, which was the report of Bishop Taylor of Africa. Bishop Taylor of Africa then came forward and was greeted with great applause. He said the evangelization of Africa was a stupendous work. A part of the Continent of Africa was poverty stricken by natnre on account of the unproductiveness of the country in its present state. The natives were unable to make use of eveu the resources that were within their reach. They needed brain cultnre and hand culture. With out hand cultnre they would starve on their barren plains. The.education of the head aud hand must be carried for ward simultaneously in Africa. It would not do to wait until the heathen bad grown up in ignorance and sin.. Someone requested Bishop Taylor to iresent the little colored girl that be had jrought to America with him to the conference. The child was brought for ward and placed npon the presiding of ficers desk. The conference was thrilled with the picture presented and a wave of applause filled the house. Bishop Bow man stepped forward and took the little waif by the hand. The child looked at him innocently and smiled. Theaudieuce again broke out in applause. " What is her name?” called out a del egate. "We call her Diana,” said Bishop Tavlor. How old is she?” called another. She is about 3 years old, ” replied the Bishop, "and nine months ago site was a heathen child. She has learned to talk English in that short tim\ and she has gotten into the General Conference, txxv” added Bishop Tapior, aud the au dience laughed.

May 10.—At the re quest of Mr. Blonut, the president has appointed Colonel John W. Lindsey, of Irwinton, Ga., oa the board of visitors for West Point, iu company with Mr. Blount. A committee from Rome, Ga.. made call on Secretary Elkins, and secured the services of an engineer to make a a survey of the levee at Rome. The committee are now happy on their way home. The expenses of the present congress, incident to the growth of the country, added to the extravagance of the last congress, will almost surely cause a de ficit in the treasury next year. Unless additional reveuues are raised there will not be enough cash available to run the government. There will be a most op portune time for the democracy to alter the system. An income tux will fill an important niche. A Preacher's Chance of Faith. Mason City, la., May 9.—Religious circles are agitated over the action of Rev. Chas.

He departed with a letter to Bishop Hennessy of Dubuque, who will furnish him the neceesary credentials to enter the order.

It is evident tbat Deeming has not tbe slightest hope that his appeal for fur ther inquiry into his meutul condition will avail him to escape hanging. The condemuei murderer confessed to a clergyman that he killed his wife at Windsor. Deeming claims that in his youth he was called ”Mad Fred, ” aud that on one occasion he threw a girl, who addressed him by that name, into a canal, when he was 12 years old; and, again, when he was 16, he was, accord ing to his story, confined in asylums.
