We would be pleased to give tbe
proceedings of that conference in its
entirety, but cannot. We make, how
ever, a clipping below, from the Pitts
burg Commercial Gazette, timidling the
third puper read befon .• confer
ence. It was from tin , • n of Dr.
Jurnos Stacy, of thiB St; mo a few
years ago took a pree n . : i2U0 for
the best essay on the ousei vance of
tho Sabbath. Thore were over ono
hundred competitors. Here is the ex
tract :
At tho evening session the Rev.
James Stacy, D. D., of Atlanta, Ga.,
Chairman of the Sabbntb Committee
of tho Southern Presbyterian Church,
rend a paper on “What means should
be employed to secure proper action
by the Municipal, State and National
Governments, regarding the right ob
servance of the Sabbath?" He began
by saying Hint in the interest of the
cause for which the conference was
assembled, all sectional lines were
ibolisbeil, and be could say that he
know no North and know no South.
Tlio Sabbath must over remain the
symbol of uutionnl reverence. To in
sult the flag is to insult the honor of
a nation, so bo who violates tbe Sab
bath, casts contempt on the divine re
ligion of which tho Sabbath is a sym
bol. There are two aspects of the
case, one religious and the other po
litical. All government is instituted,
not tu teach religion, but to protect
the rights uf citizens. If gnvei ament
f divine origin, wliem-e comes
tlio right to take human life That
the moral condition of tin- people
should be under the surveilance of the
Government, is not a debatable ques
tion. If it has the right to uphold the
institution of marriage, why lias it not
tlio right to uphold tlie institution of
tho Sabbath. They are both of equal
importance. There is not a State in
the union which lias uol laws in rela
tion to keeping tlie Sabbath. Bat
while they talike the smaller mechan
ics uinl tradesmen cease work on the
Sabbath, limy allow corporations to
ply their railroad and steamboat
lines.
As a remedy, it is necessary to
quicken public opinion on the subject.
But tbe quickening of public opinion
must result iu laws, which alone can
control the great soullcsj corpora
tions. All questions of public morals
must, be controlled by lav, and until
tins is accomplished our work will be
but half done. Make it tbe combined
effort of all denominations, und the
opposition .! the outside world will
bo more en-ilv overcome. The work
must be de n- by the people in the
sphere of cniz--ns, irrespective of de-
nomiuatiui j .rty or creed. If the
right of pet •> be couflued to citi
zens, then ;t !- to them we must make

ages. There is m» reason for discour

from » reliable, indeed, undisputed

to be performed by Vico President

bring about large combinations, and
do not control the majority of the

a matter of brains and energy as a

arrangement and held meetings every

however, let Juo. S. Bigby, U. S. Dis

in it, and thrown it opeu for the in
spection of Georgians. It all reads
very pretty, but, somehow, we could
take more stocK in it- it we were sure
those fellows really f.-li what they ut
ter, and were not nniking these dec
larations to ride into position on.
1. The political “e mens” isnuh ad
visory in its character— should have
no binding force np.-n l he actions and
consciences of fre- ciuzeus of u tiee
government, but ev- iy ballot east at
an election should t.-pr-seut the con
victions of the iudivi i.m! voter.
2. We insist ttiat it is essential to
flee government to have a free ballot
and a fair couut of all votes honestly
cast at any State or National election;
and tlie muchinery of inauagiDg and
supervising elections should be guard
ed and protected by law so that fraud
will be impossible.
3. Honorable payment of all honest
debts—especially the payment of tbe
National and State debts—as rapidly
as our surplus revenues will author
ize.
4. In fiuaucial matters we rtcog-
nize gold and silver as the inouey of
the couRtit-ntion; and all paper issues
—greenback or other paper currency
—should be redeemable, at tbe will
of the holder, in coin, at the Treasury
of the United States.
5. As soon as tlie reduction of the
National debt will permit, we favor
the repeul of all internal revenue laws,
and believe that all the revenues of
the Federal Governmeut should be
raised by a tariff upou foreign articles
imported into this conutry, and which
tariff shull so discriminate iu its pro'
visions as to afford ample encourage
ment and protection to aU home in
dustries.
6. We advocate a liberal system of
internal improvements by the Federal
Governmeut for works of a National
character only—especially our water-
routes of transportation
7. The National Government is tho
supreme authority known to the peo
ple of this country, and its laws have
the first claim to our obedience. Ev
ery citizen of tho United States is en
titled to a full protection of his per
sonal and political rights under thoso
Federal laws.
8. We believe every child should
have the opportunity of acquiring a
common English education iu schools
forever made free by a liberal support
from the State government.
1). Monopolies, by which a privi
leged class exercise a controlling pow
er over the property aud labor of a
multitude of citizens, are opposed to
the genius aud spirit of our Govern
ment; nud we will steadily resistevery
tueasuro or system that tends to con
centrate political power or undue bus
iness opportunities in tho hands of
tlio few at tho expense of the many.
IU. The present system of lensiug
tlio State convicts must bo wiped from
our statutes ns a foul blot upon our
civilization aud humanity.
11. Party proscription and section
al prejudices have greatly retnrdcd
the material growth and development
of our State—which m aterial prosper
ity we earnestly desire and will dili
gent,'v foster; aud to this end we will
use every moral and legal means li
suppress proscription and to liberalize
sectional prejudices - recognizing the
unity of our common Federal Govern
ment and equality of all meu before
tbe laws.
We are imbued with tlio doctrino
that this is a government by the peo
ple, aud for the people; that political
parties nre but agencies for a part of
the people, and that, iu any necessary
comparison, the people's interest
should bo primnry and party interests
secondary.
We believe that it is no longer pa
triotic to be partisan, but that as the
two parties now powerful iu the coun
try are at issue on no government
al principles, it is wise for the peo
ple, who aspire to fraternal relations
coexistent with tho country, to bury
sectional strife and t.> . locate politics
to the consideration ,.f those material
questions iu which tlm whole country
is vitally interested, and to this end it
is especial wisdom for our immediate
people to select political agencies,
st ranger than hioi ion.
