eral Assembly.
Sr. Lons, May 2.'.. Ia the Southern
Presbyterian General Assembly to
day almost the entire session was ta
ken tip in the discussion of what is
known as the “Wilson ease,” belttß
the complaints of J. J. Cooke and
others to the Louisville Presbytery,
regarding Rev. S. R. Wilson and his
congregation of the First Presbyte
rian Church, of Louisville. The Ju
dicial Committee made a lengthy re
port, on tlie subject, and without dis
cussing the merits of tlie case advised !
tho Assembly to remand it. back to
tho Louisville Presbytery, with an
injunction to that body to renew the
whole ease under certain rulings by
the General Assembly its to the con
stitutional points. Rev. S. R. Wil
son offered a resolution that tho
whole case be submitted to a com
mission of nine mombers of the As
sembly, with instructions to examine
the ease and recommend specific ac
tion on tlie part of the Assembly. A
lengthy debate ensued on these reso
lutions, participated in by most of
the prominent members of the As
sembly. Finally both resolutions
were laid on the table, and ttie com
plaint of J. J. Cooke against tho
Louisville Presbytery was read by
the moderator, after which the As
sembly adjourned till to-morrow,
when tho case will lie taken up again.
Next to the. question involving the
relations between the Northern and
Southern churches, this is the most
important rage before the Assembly.
