The Presbytery of Augusta met in Waynesboro Wednesday night. A large number were in attendance. Rev. Mr. Doak, the pastor of the Eatonton church, was elected Moderator. After the appointment of the usual committees and the general routine of business was gone through with, the ease ot Dr Woodrow was brought be fore the Presbytery. A committee of live were appointed to consider it. The com mittee replied making direct charges against Dr. Woodrow for error in his teach ings, and that his interpretation of the Scripture was not in accordance with the standards of the Presbyterian church, and that the Presbytery institute proceedings against him. This report was concurred in by only three of the committee, tAvo dissenting. The Presbytery declined to endorse the report by a vote of eight to sewn, and a substitute was offered and carried by the same vote, which in sub stance is: While we do not endorse the teaching of Dr. Woodrow on the subject ot evolution, we see no cause for judicial pro cess. Wherepon Dr. Adams immediately no tified the Presbytery that he would table the charges against Dr. Woodrow and be come the prosecutor. These proceedings occupied the Presby tery until Friday night. On Saturday morning Dr. Adams prefer red charges against Dr. Woodrow for error in his teachings and the Presbytery cited him to appear at his trial at the next meeting of the Presbs’tery, which will take placeat Bethany Church inTaliaferro coun ty, the last week in August. It is highly probable that the whole mat ter will be brought before the General As sembly, which convenes here on the 20th of May, as the Savannah presbytery has overtured the Assembly to take cogni zance of the matter, and a speedy termina tion may be looked for. Dr. Woodrow and Col. R. L. Hunter were elected commissioners to the General Assembly.

Governor McDaniel was interview ed yesterday by a Capitol reporter in regard to his recent trip to Milledge ville. He said the asylum was in a splendid condition and that he thought Georgia' now possessed one of the best and most attentively kept asylums in the South. That the man agement was as near perfect as possi ble for it to become under the present appropriation from the State. A rather singular thing was brought out in the City Court in Macon, Tues day. During*the March term of the court the case of the State vs. Strip ling, for selling Avhisky to a minor, was taken up. The defendant demanded a jury trial. Among the jurors drawn A\ r as W. C. Jones, and he desired to have W. B. Jobson serve as a substi tute. While Clerk Nisbet was busy with the lists, Jobson, who was un known to the Clerk, said he AA'ould serve for Jones. The Clerk asked Judge Harris if such was the agreea- ment, and the Judge answered no. Jobson, however, misunderstood af fairs, and when Jones' name was call ed ansAvered to it. The case went to trial and Stripling was convicted and fined §800 and costs. Several other cases were tried, and each time Job- son answered to the name of Jones. He was of the impression that as he was a substitute for Jones, he should answer to Jones’ name. In none of the cases but that of Stripling was there any convictions. A few days after the trial it was 'discovered that Jones was not on the jury, and a mo tion was made for a new trial on the above ground. The motion was heard Tuesday and Judge Harris reserved his decision. Personal. Hon. T. J. Simmons, judge of the Macon circuit, Col. L. F. Livingston, president of the state agricultural society, Hon.
