Indianapolis, Ind., Juno 21.—This morn ing Ur. Jones preached to a tremendous crowd of reople, and he gave notice that tomorrow would end bis ministration* in this city. His sermon was the bait of the series, and it seems that the Indian- apolls sinners are just beginning to catch on to the fact that be la really an earnest evangelist worth the boaring. At the close of his morning service Hr. Jones asked Dr. Jeffrey, ol the First Baptist church, to lead in prayer. Dr. Jeffrey will be remembered as the divine who took Brother Jonas to task for language interpreted as reflecting upon the Baptist denomination, and considerable feeling was stlcrsd up against the evangelist until he, so to speak, “carbollcatfd" or, rather, explained that he was only going for an Isolated Baptist in what he said, and not for the whole denomination. Dr. Jeffrey delivered an earnest, Impressive prayer, and at the close asked the blessing of God on the minister who had Just spoken (meaning Jones), that he might continue to do a great and good work, and that forgiveness might be granted for all anchor* ltableness and unklndnees of which any body bad been guilty. “Help us." said be, “tobe kind, forgiving and patient, and may we all be lifted up Into a higher plane." Before the benediction was pronounced Dr. Jeffery walked across the pulpit, and extending his hand to Ur. Jones, asked him to hold his fsrewell service tomorrow in his church, Y»hfch Invitation Ur. Jones accepted, and in mak ing the announcement he added with reference to Dr. Jeffrey that the hatchet was buried, and he was glad of it. “It Is a fit conclusion for the work of grace in this city," be added, “if the Baptist brethren construe my remarks as a # reflection on them as a denomination, I retract the word 'liar/ aa construed to apply to them, for I would no more reflect upon that denomination of Christian peo ple than I would upon my wile and children. Uay God bleu that denomination as he blesses the Methodist, Presbyterians and others who love Christ." This brought Dr. Jeffrey again to his feet, and be responded with feeling: "I heartily acoept this broad and ample explanation and retraction by Brother Jones. Ism satisfied that he has a great, kind heart, and that the word was a slip of the tongue-|I wish it to be understood that there is not a shadow of a shade of any unkind feeling in my heart toward Brother Jones, and I do not be- believe there la any such feeling in bis heart to* ward me.

JONES AND SMALL DENOUNCED The Action of tho Baptists of Oolurn bn Mississippi. Columbus, Miss., Juno si.—[Special.]—At a foil mcctlug of the First Baptist church here, tho pastor, Rev. C. E. W, Hobbs, made a statement of the recent charges preforred by the evangelists against the Baptists of Odumbns. Rev. Dr. T, C, Teaadale offered the following preamble and reso lutions, which were unanimously adopted by a standing vote: IVbcrete, In a letter ol Rev. Sam Jones, which wee read publicly by Rev, Sam Small is thoir meeting in Indianapolis, Indiana, on Monday, tho Glli lust. Mr. Jonea admit! teat. he eald. In hit meeting in this city, "teat all who eald teat Immer sion te the only and cxoluslro form of baptism, are Unti." And Wbcreaa, In his excuse for using this offsndve tonnage to tho Baptists in this city, and to tbe millions of Immcrslonlsts throughout this coun try, he alleges that tho Baptists "wore engaged In an open end aggressive system of proselyttom, es- pcelaily among tea younger people." And that f'lbsywantao far as to confuse theml conscience of HP runny convert*:, nml to Imperil tl new born frith. In some loxtonoe* thechild I of parents of other than tho Baptist werou while thm aboent from their home* and friflH to Join tbe Baptlat church, upon the poaltivo statement that its mode of baptism alone ooald be to them the seal and sure wltnera o, their soul’* ralvation. Others wore led to under stand that they would be damned If they were not I Immersed. They were thus led to doubt the reality of the religion of their father*, mother* and flunlf- let from time immemorial, and to tht* dilemma to drawback from their profearion of ChritL In this emergency or danger to aomony touU, produced by atplrit ao Jesuitical ly at variance with the union work of evangelism in which we were engaged, and which Goa wm favoring so mightily, I indig nantly protested against this specie* ot proeelytism." Now, therefore Kesolyed, 1. That as a church and people, f city ; and wc challenge Mr. Jones to give his on* thority for so grave and unjust a charge against the Baptists or this community. , ... Resolved, 2, That no Baptist minister or intallt' gent layman in Columbus, ever taught thatoui r, mode or baptism alone could be totho oon verts the seal and the sure witness of their soul's salv% tion." And the man or woman cannot be found in our church, who ever taught, or believed that the converts “would be damned if they were not immersed." In the first place, we do not believe that either baptism or the Lord's supper Is a seal of salvation. We hold, a we think the New Testament most clearly teaches . that the blood of Christ ‘ “ ‘ * ‘ “ sinner s salvation. And i that a man might be immers ed seventy times in the Jordan, and If he hod not erne, heart faith ta the Lord Jesus Christ, it would profit him nothing. Indeed, it is a fundamental principle of faith, that a man most be saved before lie can be properly admitted to the sacrod rite of baptism. It u Mud. Acts U. 47: “And tho Lord added to the church dally the saved;" and we adopt that pripciplo most heartily. Resolved, 8, That It is dne to us, as a church, snd to tho large and respectable denomination to which we belong, that Hr. Jones should retraot Baptist church of Columbna. It Is poalble that he Resolved, 4, That it is an undeniable fact, that the Baptists generally co-operated heartily with Jonea and Small in their meetings here. They as sisted as ushers, collectors and contributors; and as Mr. Maxwell, their musical leader, knows, they rendered Important assistance in conducting the music on the occasion. Oar ministers and mem bers co-operated In prayer and in the inquiry room and did what they could to moke tbe meetings a success; and we respectfolly submit to til who fore candor and fair play that we deserved decidedly more honorable treatment than that aocorded us 6, That a oopr of these resolution, bo •cut to Mr. Jones, ami that tha dtjr ones and B»p- tlvt^p.pcii throughout tbs country be requested to TRIAL OF THE ANARCHISTS.

Dobbs, at present a resident of tee Isthmus ot Panama, te spending a few days with Mends In AlIitnM. no Is a natlraofGoorgla, having been born and reared In Mariett* Since ten yean ago, bte business has carried him Into many conntrlre. Ho bat visited England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, France. Bpaln, Portugal, Italy, Arabia, India, Australia, Africa, Canada, Mexico, Central America, Brazil, and every republic in Boute America On tho Isthmus of Panama he te a member of a firm which has a contract to do a part of I be work on M Bo leaseps’s great canal. Mr. Dobbs Is, ol course, thoroughly Informed as to tee condition of affairs on tee canal. Ho aays teat tee world at large b singularly ignorant of the progress ot M Do Uesepa’s great undertak ing, end that tee people of tee United States arc especially so. "Why"’he said, In talking to tea writer, "so many, falsehoods have boon told about the canal, teatretareoly anywhere out of Panama lathe real state of sffolrs understood. I have bean on'.tee tetemus two years. I bare boon actively engaged In tbe work on tee canal, and, knowing Just wbat bac been done and Just what remains to bo done, I have been bote amused and annoyed, store my return to tho states, by the elmoit numberless In. correct Impressions I find people laboring under. For lnstonco, ill sorts of ldoes are entertained as to tee dimensions of tee canal. From Aaplnwall to Panama, tho length ot the canal 1s thirty-seven and a half mile* The width will very from ninety-two foot to one hundred and elghty-fonr. Tho depth srtu bo twenty-nlno and a half feat. The Panama railroad rani neat the canal; In toot. It craesea It Ivrice." Asked about tho progreai or the work, Mr. Dobbs said: "About ten thousand laborers are employed upon the excavation* They arc Rom every coun try on tlic globe. Evan Icelanders are there. The work te divided into sections whloh vary In length Rom three to seven mite* Up to tee present, tho contracts for the excavations have boon lot to whetcverpaitleimadc tho lowest bid* At the end of tela ytar tho contracts will be let to live large construction com panic* which will oompleto the work. Among there companies wilt be tee American Dredging company, which will have seven powerful dredges at work, capable ofremor- lag three thousand metres or earth a day. This will bo rapid work. As the work stands now about ono-elghte of It has boon oomplotcd, and laborers are employed upon overy mile of the dis tance between Asplnwall and I'anam* I cannot say bow long It will take to complete tee canal. M. Do Usscps says three yeare. That It will even tually he completed, I do not doubt." Tho attention of Mr. Dobhe ires called to tele grams sent Rom Asplnwall to newspapers In the United Btates during M. DeUaacps's recent visit to the Isthmus, to the effect that bo had not inspected tec canal, but had remained upon a steamer, at hteease. " There Is sot a word of truth In Uio telegrams," Mr. Dobbs said. “M. DcLcsscps visited and par- sou ally inspected overy section of tho canal. I was present et the reception tendered him when he arrived at tho Isthmus, saw him frequently after- ward, and know that ho carefully and thoroughly examined Into tec condition or eltoln." Alluding totho hot that tho canal to being con structed by tho French, Mr. Dobhe laid teat cltl- sene of tho United States now residing In the lath- mus, were anxious for tho government to assume a protective control ortho canal. They believe In tho Monroe doctrine, and think that a great Injury to tee prestige and commerce of tea United Slates will ensue, If tho government does not assume such control. It is well known thkl~too Isthmus of Panama is extremely unhealthy. Mr. Dobbs, himself, has neves^cen 111 there, bnt has malntalnedhteutual good'health. He said that of all the peopleem- ployed on the cars], those from the southern sec tion of tho United states endured the climate beat. At the Kimball house, yesterday morning, Mr, Green said to tho writer: "Mr. Dobbs to preju diced In favor of M. Do Las'ops and his aehemo. Ills certainly a feasible aehemo. but to say teat tho canal will be completed In three years to non. sense. Even It Us French government decides to advance money to the canal company, by lottery or otherwise, tl will require at laast a dozen yean to complete the work. One-eighth of It, u Mr. Dobbs laid, baa already been completed. That Includes houses for the officers of tee company on tea Isthmus, homes for employe* end houses for stores Tha excavations do not font the most difficult pert of tee work. Two rivers are to bava their channels changed, and two mountains are to be tunneled. What tremble will ha met with In tunneling teats mountains nobody knows It may bo that they are nothing bnt huge mounds of tod dirt, and It may he teat they are solid reek. One thing la certain; while the contractors at work upoo tho canal bcllava teat tl will cvantnally bo completed, they do not believe teat tee present route will bo used. That Is, they do not behave that all of It will be used.” Mr. Green Imparted to tee srriter mneb Interest.! Ing Information concerning the character of the laborers at work upon the canal. "Mr. Dobbs Wti correct," he said "aa to the cosmopolitan character of lha laborers employed on tho canal. They are Rom every country under tea sun, Even tha remotosUAsiatlo countries are represent ed. Chldly,-however, tho laborers are negroes from tea Island or Jamads I do not believe teat there ever waa before snob an absolutely law less collection of men assembled anywhere Ion tec toco of the glob* Tbe superintendents In charge of tho canal And It necessary to go heavily armed during every hour ol tee twenty-four. They control tbe laborers at tha mouth of a pistol bar rel or at the mtusle of a title, la no other pert of tec world Is human life considered of so little value. Tho Isthmus of Psnsma Is under tee control of the United BUM* ot Colombia. Intent country no such thing as capital punishment Is known. The laws declare that murder shall bo punished by ten yean Im prisonment. This, of Itself, gives man lleenat to take tee lives of their follows, bnt, In reality, tea pnnlsbment to much lighter, A man r mvlctcd of murdernsnally spends stow mouth,in Jail and then, by tho payment of a tow hundred dollar* regains bto liberty. In eighteen mouths' experi ence on the Isthmus, I am confident that I have witnessed an average of twomurders aday. Tho Jamaica ncgroce are especially careless of human life. They murder each other upon tec slightest provocation, and do it In tho most cold-blooded aid atrocious way. Their favorite weapon to a knlfo which has a long and very keen blade.

I have often longed for a rare beef steak, but I did not dare eat I* Vegetables are tho chief articles of food, together with some light bread. Hot food to esetitwod.

But, whatever precautions ho make take, tee man teat goes to re- sIdo on tho Isthmus takes bis Ute In bto band*' 1 The writer asked Mr* Green if alcoholic liquors wore extensively used on the Isthmus. "Why,” bo replied, "more whisky to sold on tee Isthmus tn one day than to sold tu ell Goorgtoluonedsy. The tamales negroes employed on the canal are tee hardest drinkers I ever knew. They spend most of their money for liquor of the moot ffory sort Beer to used to some extent, but, as tt to arid only tn bottle* It la not aa popular as whisky or wine. Tho French laborers on tho canal generally dnnk ebampangc. They can afford to drink champagne, because they make from one dollar and a half to three dollers a dar.' Mr. Green said that theclUiens of the United States on the Isthumus ware very mneb disgusted because their governmant bad not assumed a pro tective control of tho canal. “They feel,” bo continued,” teat no foreign nation should bo al- lowsd to gain a foothold In Central or Booth Amcrlc* They feel, too, teat the French will never be able to complete the canal. They ere opposed to Eads's ship railway scheme, end are anxious that the government shall not aid It They tough at tho scheme as impracticable. As to tee canal, they think tea plan could bo Improved. M. Da Dcsseps Intends teat tea depth ahatl bo only twenty-nine end a half foe* Such a depth will prevent tee passage of very large vessels. The pcoplo Rom tee states think teat the canal should bo daeoos." Mr. Green wes asked tribe level of thePacMo ocean wes higher than teat ot tho Atlantic, "Ye*” he said, "It I* It Is nlno feet higher. But that will make bnt lltlte dWkranoe. On tee I'acUo side, two looke will he constructed which will obviate all difficulties There to no doubt about It: the Panama canal scheme la Risible, and tho canal will surely bo completed sooner or later."
