Rev. T. G.

The i solutions were laid over for the present. Rem irks upon the Southern Baptist Theolo gical Seminary at Greenville, South Carolina, were resumed, and Ki-v. Drs. Boyce, Bitting, Calloway, Curry, Welch, Manly and Howard made speeches. An adjournment thru took place ufitil. 3, p. m. Upon reassembling, and after the usual devotional exercises, Rev. Dr. Winkler pre sented a report from the Committee on the Comoiunieaiinn from the I)eleg ites of the American Biptist Home Mission Society, recommending co-operation in their legitimate work ol spreading the truth according to the Baptist faith. The presentation of this report resulted in considerable discussion, which took a wide range, the participants being Rev. Drs. Fur man, Poindexter, Welch, Winkler ami Hague Iu the course of the discussion Dr. Winekler Stated incidentally that he was responsible lor all the extreme sentiments contained in a report made at the session of the convention at Savannah just ho tore the war, and ol which Dr. Fuller hail home all (lie odium in tin' Noith during the war. In this eouueetion Rev. Dr. Burrows, of Virginia, also took occasion to deny most cm phatieally the statements circulated in the North as to his having insulted prisoners in Libby piison. The only insults lie gave were abont $4,000, all the money lie had. The report of the committee was then adopt ed aud the convention then adjourned unlit 9, a. m., to-day. FOUHTH DAY. The Convention met yesterday at 9, a. m., Rev. Dr. P. 11. Melt, of Georgia, President, in the chair. Rev. R. M. Dudley, of Kentucky, presented a report of the Commuter on African Missions, which was adopted. The report, states that, not withstanding the difficulties in the way, yet there are indications that the Divine blessing rests on the work. It recommends the reopen ing: of the Liberian mission, and urges redou bled attention aud support from brethren throughout, this connlry. Rev. A. E. Clemens addressed the convention on the subject of the African mission. He ex pressed the belief that the best, mode of evan gelizing Afriea is by elevating the negro in the South, and sending them as missionaries to Africa, being of the race of the aborigines and physically adapted to live in the low' miasma tic countries ol Africa. Rev.'l’. A. Reid, of the Yoruh.i Mission, Africa, gave an account, of the labors in that couutry. In the city of Abeskuta, numbering 80,000 inhabitants, Hie Baptist mission num bers 80 members, mid an increased interest is shown among the natives. The difficulties are overrated; it is only on ttie coast that danger or difficulty may be apprehended ; the interior is safe. The speaker urged renewed efforts in this important cause. Whilst negro preachers would lie useful, the superintendence of white men is vitally necessary. Colonel Austin, ot Texas, said it was neces sary to increase the religious element in Afriea. It it were possible to march one hundred thou sand negro Christians into Africa, the work of evangelization and Christianizing that country would become easier. We must do our duty to the former slaves in this country. All North aud South should lotik to this, as (foil will undoubtedly hold us responsible lor the per formance- of our duty to these poor people. Rev. Messrs. Berg, Howard and Poindexter made addresses in behalf of the mission. Rev. W. F. Bro.uldus, ot Virginia, (rom the Committee on Credentials, submitted n report, with ft list of the names of delegates, which was read and reconiniitt; and. Rev. Mr. Winslow, of Virginia, from the committee to whom was relenvd the report of the Sunday School Board, reported that the exhibit of the work during the year calls for the warmest commendation ; that the commit tee are satisfied, by Hie experience of five years, that the Sunday School board is a most import ant part of the organization, and therefore should he more liberally supported in (he future than in the past; that the propriety of the re moval of the he .dquarters of the board is re cognized, and that it be authorized to change its location rom Gt eetuT'e, S. C., to Memphis, Tcnn., and that the new board lie directed to liquidate its present indebtedness, and place rs promptly as possible the aft lira ot the body oil a sound financial basis. Rev. Dr. S. H. Ford, of Tennessee, said it was necessary to ini use iuto our literature Bap tist principles. The Catholics in the South and West are making determined efforts to draw ■within their fold the freedmen. Colored Chris tian brothers and sisters of charity are being organized. To-day there arc in Rome fifty negroes being educated for the. priesthood, who are only held back until prejudices are more smoothed away, when, in the vestments of popery, they will be dispatched to proselytize the Southern frepdmen. The Baptists must be up and doing. We propose to scatter Baptist literature. We propose to uuite the whole country under this couveution, to carry into a grand success this effort. Onr literature must he Southern,,which means that alt that reflects on our fathers’ deeds as treason must lie kept out. All that tends to sow discord between Baptist brethren. North or South, must be eliminated ; it must be strictly confined to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. On motiou of Rev. Mr. Landrum, speeches, for the balance of the session, were limited to ten minutes. Rev. Messrs. Poindexter, Jeter and Manly addressed the convention iu support of the re port. , Rev. G. C. Connor opposed the adoption ol the report, hesnuse he did not deem Memphis as the very best place to locate the board. He' thought the city of Atlanta would be a more suitable place. Mr. Mills submitted as a substitute for the report, a resolution Mint the Sunday School Board be instructed to sell their stock and fix tures, dispose of the subscription list of “ kind words,” settle all claims against the hoard, aud make a final report to Ibis convention at the next annual session. Rev. Mr. Mills gave the following reasons for Die introduction of (he resolution: First, that the Sunday School Work is not included in the work of this convention ; secondly, that this board is an obstacle iu the way of the Slate Sunday School Board rather Diana help; and thirdly, that this board is taxation without rep resentation. The substitute gave rise to an extended de bate, which was paiiieipate I iu by Rev. Messrs. Troiighton, of Tennessee, Burrows, of Virginia, Box e, of'South Carolina, Mansfield, of Geor gia, Ford, ol Tennessee, Jones, of Tennessee, and Johnson, ol North Carolina. Pending the di cession the convention adjourned. The Methodist Episcopal Conference at Chicago. The following abstract embraces the leading points of the pastoral address of the Bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church, read by Bishop Simpson to the general conference, now in ses sion in Chicago, on Monday : In (he South four Go man Conferences had li *en organ - ’! and. The following conferences had been found and ; Holstein, Mississippi,Ton nes e, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia, Nnrlli Carolina, G orgia and Ahi bn tun ; 373 traveling preachers were added, hi -sides a number ot local pi •aebers, and the membership is 90,071. In Kentucky and Arkansas there are iu the church U7,2’’7 members, and 177 preachers or dainod within the p l two years. At I he close of Die last conference the bishops’ were authorial dto f ildisii one or more eon ferenc s, and the Delaware and Washington Conferences were established, it lays with the general conference to recognize life delegates from the mission conferences. There have been 107 ministers ordained iri the South and 20,187 members added. 'Jhe membership of the Methodist denomina tion four years ago was 923,391, nml it now is 1,1 -Iti.OK; the largest increase in the history of the church in any four years. The increase in the number ol parsonages is 717. The number of church edifices last conference was 9,430, and is now 11,131 —an increase of 18 per cent, in four years ; the value, in ISfH was 830,830,554, and is now $35,885,139. Tlie centenary donations were $8,397,002. — Ihe theological institutes were progressing well, hut. there was less tendency to endow new ones than to increase the endowments of older ones. The publishing interests were in a pros perous condition, as Die reports of the different hook agents showed. The Sunday schools show an increase In the number of children of 241,819, an increase of 14,000 more thau Die addition of member ship. The tract societies were isi a flourishing con dition, as also the Missionary Society, which bad greatly increased in its wink. The largest missionary receipts of any previous quadrennial was licit from 1860 to 1804, $1,153,040; Irom 1804 to 18(58 Die r-eeipls were $2,457,548, au in crease of $1,304,587. The Foreign Mission Union was in a satisfac tory condition. Rev. I \V. Roberts had been appointed Bishop to Liberia i n 1800. The China Mission was progaessing, and nlforded One ot Die largest fields in the world. In the Bulgarian Mission but little bail been done, nlllioiigli tin re were mesionaric at work. The Church Extension Society had been hard at work, but had done luit little not as much as wm expected. In the South a Freediucn’s Aid Society had been organized, and 52 teachers had been pro cured, and there were at Ihc lime nt the last Conference fi.OCi) scholars. There were now 75 teat hers and 7,000 scholars. C'oj.d Weatiieh Caused by Holes in -rut! Sun.— The astronomers have brought lot ward an explanation of lids protiai ted *■ cold spell.” They sav that the sun’s disc is at present rid dled with holes, in other words, with spots, one of which is of very considerable size. U is it deep cavity in the phosl.osphere, and so wide that the whole terrestrial globe would find loom in if without, touching the edges.— There is another spot which, though much smaller, still lets one ol its diameters as. large iis that of our earth. JJerselu-l and Arago, having conceived the idea of comparing the annual price of corn to the number of solar spots observed each year, found, on compar ing it series of twenty five results, that (lie greater number ol spots the higher was the cost of breadstufls. This shows I hat these phe noruena may "reduce the heal of the sun con siderably. A Male “ Modiste.”— The Allentown, (Pa.) Demo rat of late date says : Many of our ladies will remember being called upon at their lvsi dene's, latt fall, by ft lady agent going mound mid selling ladies’ corse's, and fitting them at. a remarkably low price. Recently, in an interior town in Ibis State, the very same woman, by the elu apiK' of her stock, mid a decided and unwarranted pirtialdy shown a beautiful lady customer, aroused suspicion, and, on Hie lady fifing arrested, she w; found to be a young man in disguise tilting and selling just for the fun of the thing. He fays lie has passed through Easton, Allentown, Read’ll":, Poftsville, and many other towns, lifting corsets to several thousand young ladies. The Columbia (Pa.) Ili raid says the same unity lias been fitting the ladies of that town. Ami, later, he appeared in Cairo, 111., and came near being filled with a coat of lar and feathers. Let tile ladies beware of the corset-fitter in disguise. We are called upon by the Vi izen to explain how it. is that the income tax is unconstitu tional, so that it. must he set. aside whenever the issue is properly presented to the Supreme Conit. We will try to satisfy our contem porary. The constitution provides that, all direct taxes shall lie levied upon Suites in pro portion to their population. Congress lias no power to levy any direct tax upon individual citizens. It. must impose such taxes upon the States, and upon them only. The income tax is a direct tax. It. is levied not upon Hie States, but upon individuals. Therefore it is ltncon stitulloiiul, and cannot rightfully lie collected of any man.—A". Y. Sun. A dashing young widow in Detroit, prepared a pleasant surprise for her snitora few evenings since. Expecting a call from him, she hid Iter self in a convenient corner, and as lie touched the knob of I lie door bell, sprang out in Hie darkness of the evening, and nearly smothered him —with kisses. His cool reception of her caresses startled her with a recognition of the fact that instead of her lover she bad been lavishing her sweetness upon the conductor of a street car, who had come with a note ex plaining an unforseen absence. The widow thereupon, with great propriety, fainted on the spot. Old Deacon Sharp never told a lie, hut he used to relate this : “ He was standing beside a frog pond—we have his word for it—and saw a large garter snake make an attempt upon an enormous big bull frog. The snake seized one of the frog’s hind legs, and the frog, to be on a par with his suakeship, caught him by the tail, and both commenced swallowing one another, until nothing was left of them.” AUGUSTA, (Ga,) FRIDAY fMOBNING, MAY 15, 1808 IST ew Y ork Column.
