Our citizens were siven the benefit of 5 the presence of the members ol the Cien- eral Assembly in a popular way. The i churches of the city were occupied by r vititing n inisterg. Some strong sermons were preached and general expressions of favor are heard. As they were not a part of the assembly proceedings it is only necessary to refer to them incident ally. The writer heard ihe Moderator in me morning at the U f church in a discourse of much talent, and W .1 Reid, he stated clerk, in the evening. He is a popular talker. lr McClennahan's S. S. discourse was full of leamiug. l)r Reid's tale to a mas? meeting of Junior Endeav ors of the city at 4 o'clock was one of the treats of the day. Betw een 300 and 400 members communed nt the services at j the church in the morning, the prepara-' tory sermon for which had been delivered the evening previous by Dr Hanna. The j delegates pronounced the day one of spiritual feasts- ncjcday mousing May 27. Assembly met and was opened with prayer by Rev Frailer . A memorial from the lay delegates to the Assembly asks that the list of de ceased elders be published in connection with the minutes of the Assembly, was referred to the committee on bills and overtures. The committee on Sabbath schools made the following report: 'It's 'matter regret', data furnished ua is not more complete. Five presby terians; viz, Indiana, Monmouth, Ohio, Pittahargh and Vermont representing fifty-seven schools have sent no reports. Other presbyteries send incomplete re ports; in all making one hundred and seven schools from which we have no statistics. Had it not been for this omission it is believed that substantial progress would appear in almost every department of work. As compared with the report of 1893 advancement has been made in the number of elders attending Sabbath schools; the number of scho'ars ; in the total average attendanca ot schol ars and teachers aud in tome other par ticulars. There has beeu a slight de crease in the amount contribu ed by the schools as compared with the last report In view of these facts we recommend 1. That in as much a i we have forty less Sabbatn schools than congregations not withstanding the fact that a number of congregations report more I han one school we urge that in every congrega tion, at least oie Sabbah school be or ganized unless circumstances render such an organization absolutely imprac ticable. 2. That the Presbyterial Sabbath school superintendents be directed to make strenuous efforts to secure a report from every Sabbath school in the church and report the same to the permanent committee. 3. That we express our gratitude to Almighty God for his blessing upon this department of the church's work duiing the past year. 4. That conlerences and conventions t held in the different presbyteries under the direction of the Presbyteriul Sabbath school superintendents wher ever practicable. 5. That the third Sabbath of Oct be appointed as a da? of special prayer for .Sabbath retools i 1 all our churches ; and the last Sabbath of June 18'Jo as mission ary day. tjih schools be appropriated as hereto j 6. that the ontnhotrnnii if tl.9 a- lore viz: tirst quarter (July Sept Foreign missions. Second quarter (Oct ! Dec) Home missions. Third quarter fjasi Mar) Church extens;on. Fourth i quarter (Apr June) Freedman's mission The Assembly next proceeded to take op the unfinished business leu over from Saturday. This was the consider- tiojCLOf the report of thai committee on f itlls and Overtures. To the second sec tion of this report, relating to the open ining and closing of the sessions in our Allegheny Theological Seminary, Ir A G Wallace offered the following amend ment: "That the directors in control of the seminary be allowed to exercise their deecrition aa to the time of opening and j closing ot the session, provided that the term of study be not shortened and that . the directors report to the assembly their action in this matter,'' which after some ! .little discussion wae adopted. In regard to the third section of this report relating to a general delegate find and on which the committee reported that no action be taken, the assembly adopted the report ol the committee Tho fonrth srlinn relating tn hhtii t eebool music and anthems for children. ! wae likewise adopted as reported bv the. eommittee. Section fire of this report, relat free church papers to our foreign m ants, was likewise adapted. Section six, relating to the iesuing of a church Thanksgiving piocUmation by the moderator, and which was recom mended favorably, was adopted. Section seven, relating to the memorial from BrookvilU Pres., regarding the & word "Sunday" and which was reported adversely, was adopted. Section eight of this report or memor ial from Concord'.a Pres., on union of Psalm singing churches, aud which waa reported favorably was adopted heartily. Sectfon nine or memorial from Pres bytery from Caledonia, relating to the assembly's meeting in a more central part of the church and which was re ported adversely, was passed unanimous ly The next paper on the docket, was the report of the committee on Sabbath school?, which was taken up and passed the assembly, without any alteration .Dr Meley's paper on the Industrial condition of the country and which was laid on the table a a former session was taken from the table and reierred to the Coenmittee on Reform."

Rev .1 B Work, of Norfolk College, was next called upon to address the assembly in behalf of the woik among the Freed men at this point. He spoke of the evil re sults which still follows as a result of ! their long period of slavery that every noble principle in them has been trampled oat and that conscience among them is wanting save where they have had the uplitir.g influences of christian schools. AKTKKNOON SKSSION. May 28. Assembly was Opened with prayer and after the calling of the roll and reading of the minutes, took up the order of the day which was the consideration of the report of the committee on Home missions. The committee presented a report of which the following is a synopsis: That never before has there been such an encouraging report handed in from the bond. In spite of the financial condition of the countrv the con- txibutions of the year have exceeded those t. ... 1... aula 1 ,.......,- v ;$i000.

Also r the adoption of the following resolutions. 1st That we express our gratitude to Uod from whom have conic the hlf mill of the oast Year. marked I '2. The adoption of the annual report of the board of the General committee. This included the adoption of some fie resolti- ! tions, one cf which provoked some little discussion. "That hereafter the failure of anv mission to pay its full quoto to the boards of the church shall operate as a barrier to the granting of its ropiest for 1 I aid. Ir A (i ahace effered an amend- ment substituting the words, "a reasonable contributition ' instead of its full quota, which was adopted. 3. An expression of the high apprecia tion of the energy with which the board has conducted its work and seiziug the strategic points of the mission field. 4 That pastors and sessions le urged to educate their people to feel obligated to meet the obligations laid moon them by the assembly and that the obligations 5e met quarterly. 5. That financial agents of Prebyteries send out quarterly statements to each con gregation stating their obligations and urgingthat they lie met in full. 0. That the assembly take such steps as will make the quota an assessment for which Presbyteries shall hold their con gregations responsible. 7. While tie General committee of mis sions is not in all respects saiifactory. yet it is the best that can be devised at present and recommends no change. 8. That a comvaitte of five be anotntad to report to tho next assembly on the con stitutions of the General committee of Home missions, with a special view to se curing, if possible, some degree of eontin uity in the niem'oership of the General committee. tnuka uuatos. The assembly took op the unfinished bus iness, which was the consideration of the report of the committee on Freedmens mis sion. This report was. in substance, as follows: l 1st. Resolved. That -e record onr gr.it ' itude to God for his continued blessing up on this work. 2. That we heartily approve tlie work of the board, of the missionaries and teachers in their several stations. 3. That we esieviail', commend the ef- . fort put forth to carry on the work in the Industrial department. 4. That we urtre the prosecution of the wo$ of reaching the children of this once enslaved race and "instead of the fathers take the children and make them noble princes in lbs land." This report was adopted without altera tion. Kight o'clock was the hour set for the Elders conference. According to program announce.!, .ur toca, or i numirp. .a J-T Tf . n" "W" U,UIU talent in this direction. The first speaker was Mr T II Gaa'.t. of Chicago. 111. His subject was: "The Offering a Part of Worship." He set forth the truth that the offering, fo be true, must be from the heart, and. drew ;ji illus tration from the "widows mite." Mr W S Heicig ait spoke on "The Tithe." He spoke from a personal exper ience ot four years in tithing anu claimed t has been binding al! aloni-in each dis-! nensjL!:on l.oner itv U.'ins t n v ;ir,'r I the tenth which Wongs to God has been given him. The reward is njt only spiritual but teinjora'. "The Envelope System"' a presented by Mr A M S?ott of Braddock. Pa. He met t-e common objections to this system in a forcible ntanuer. The fact that the system is new or that there is too much work con necteil with it was shown to Ire groun 1!. . Mr (oit exploded the niethesi of raising funds bv socials. "The Pastor and Finance'" was the sub j jeet assigned Mr J D Ferjjusjn. Philadel I phia. Pa. The speaker ras in favor of the I pastor taking an active pan in church fi nances Mr WM Brown, of FparU. BL, spe on "The Elder and Finance." He spoke of the leading place which the elder should take in church finance. He should not wait to the end of the year to pay his part of the pastors salary. 1 ne obligation lo pay the quota compared with the obligation to pay congregational expenses which waa tae iat subject, was liscussed by noiiert t Mchinnev. ot Ham ilton, Ohio. These two obligations were placed cn an equality and equally binding. After the conference held last eyening.the sua. -ess ot an elders conference was mad? manifest and Presbyterial Filler's confer ences will doubtless be more frequent in the future. Happy are thus churches which have such elders as spoke last erninir and Presbyteries which have a Mr Hie to preside. XObS'I.NQ -SESSION, MAY 29. After the usual devotional exercises, the first order of business was fixing the place of meeting of tho neiLt General Assembly. Invitations were rectived from the bth Church, Pittsburgh, Pa.; from Bellefoun tain, O.. from Xenia. 0. The vote of the assembly was seventy in favor of Pittsburgh, one in favor of Bellefountain, O., and fifty one in favor of Xenia, O. An invitation waa then extended from the Chart iers congregation in C4urrnona burg, fa., to the committee of Home mi, sioxis to meet there. Indiana, Pa., also extended an invitation but the assembly de- tided in favor of Cannoasburg, ra. Ihe assembly then proceeded to UU busi ness of the hour, which was the considera tjon of the report of committee on Foreign missions, ihe report, in substance, is as follows: It has been a year cf unusual loss and hardship. The death of the venerable Dr Dales, late secretary of this hoard and the death of the wife of a young missionary ; the return of four more on account of fail ure in health and the feeble health of five more; supply of new workers lieing wholly inadequate to meet the needs of tbe Its 1 and three being sent out the past yea makes it a year of unusual less and hard ship. On the other hand there have been anv enaiuraxirit; features, nach held re porta marked growth and prosperity. The appointment of four new missionaries by the Iroard, and their virtual accephtnee shows that the missionary spirit in the church is not dead. The following i .in tions were presented for adoption: 1st. Ihat the assembly hereby express its high appreciatiation of the very efficient, and largely gratuitous services of the lab' Corresponding heeretery, Kev .1 li Dales, D D, and also its deep use of loss in his removal by death. 2. That the appointment of a Field sec retary is asked for by the seminaries anfl certain Presbyteries, would give tnis board an undue advantage in its work and is therefore not now desirable. IJ. That the salary of the treasurer of the board lie increased to and that such increase date from Oct 1KI3, when the present treasurer entered u-win his otiiec. 4. In answer to the memorial from Mo nongabe'a Presbytery, asking that a cor responding secretary be apirointed who shall give his time to the work, committee recommend that it be not granted. With reference to the plans of the lioard submitted to this assembly for its approval, we recommend me roiiowing: 1. W'e confirm the appointment to India of Rsv Geo K Henderson of (ilen Elder, Kas., Miss Minnie Spencer of Columbus, Neb., and Miss M Fulton, of Summerfield, Kas. We also confirm tbe appointment to Kgyptof Miss Minnhaha Finney, of Knox vflle, Tenn. i. We imtliorize the board to appoint and semi out as speedily as possible two male and two female missionaries to India and one male :ind two female missionaries to Egypt. vi; iiuthorio the board (o send to oaon mission dm one or more qiiiiiitied persons who shall be employed, so much of tiieir time as may be necessary, in educat ing the children of the missionaries, pro vided that tlie parents ol these children shall compensate the board for the portion of the time of the missionaries so employed. 4. We authorize the reduction of" the first term of service in a mission field to seven years; the subsequent terms of ser vice to remain as at present, namelv. ten years . V: mnmm CftUMI mo. Al.IMM Mkbt KT Campbell. 1 lHiring the session of the Assembly in Albany the thought came 'o some one to call a meeting of nil the Alumni, present, of Westminister College. 'Ibis movement resulted in the discovery that away out here on the Pacific coast; at a meeting of the General Assembly thirty-nine Alumni of Westminister College could lie found, i he different classes represented were ns follows: One from the class of '.'ili; two from the class of '58: two from 'Ik); two from 'w; two from 't4: three from '60; one from "IK- thr.,., f-., 71- I fr.-,ii '7- three from '74; two from TSj one from ''.; one from '79; two from 'SI : three from V2; two from 'St; three from 7: one from 88j one from 'Si'; and two from "OT. It was thought fitting owintr to th? large number present to meet some evening- in a social way and invite all the Alumni to M present and their wives. Accordingly, on hearing this. Mr and Mrs Saiu'l K Young whoiiossess that large spirit cf hospitality characteristic ot tins .orui-west, sent a request that the Alumni accept their in vitation to meet and spend an evening socially wiui titem. luis invitation was Kindly accepted; and on Monday evening a party ot lorty or more KM by lr ll.uina proceeded to the home of Mr ;uid Mrs Young; where they were given a hearty welcome and made to feel at home in their lieautiful parlors. This meeting wm hon ored by the presence of lr Black, who was among the first professors in Westminister College: his term dating from 'X! to 04. the Doctor spoke, in his usual modest j way. of the little good he had been able to ' accomplish in life: but expressed the joy it i gave huu to see those who were once under j him occupying high positions in the church I and in tlie world. I This was responded to, in a speech bv DrJ A W ilson. lr Withersixxm and Others who assured the venerable Doctor that his labors had ever been apprecia'cd and had he?n a moulding factor, for good, in their lives. Congratulatory speeches, expressive of the good work Westminister was doing and of her progress in recent vears were made bv Rev M M Gibson. I) 1. of San rrancisco; bv rres res Sieniw. of Cooivr Memorial College; by I'r J I Rankin and ; Rev T .1 Wilson. The following resolutions were adopted by a unanimous vote: "Wet the members of the Alumni Association of w estminister College, in Albany, irregon assembled do most heartily irajoice in the evidence of prosperity that is beina; enjoyed by our beloved Alma Mater. Especially are we gratified to learn that by the generosity of her friends such an important advance step could bo made in her equipments as the erection of the Man Thompson Science Hall. And we would earnestly commend the example of these friends to other persons, of nu-ans. 111 ihe lelief that no more lasting monument can be erected to a man's mctiiorv than that which results from the investment of a good gift upon a worthy institution of learning. We would furthermoie desire to assure the Faculty and Tnsstees of tlie college of our undiminished sffe-;tion for our Alma Mater and pledge them our in tluence and cooperation in any afferta that may look toward the advanceiuer.' of her iuterest. and especially would we seek to j direct the young people of our respective j communities toward her walis to secure an education and to encourage men of wealth among our acquaintance to bestow her their gifts." upon AFTE11XiH- SE10X.

On this memorial the committee offered the following: 1. Resolved, That eai.f)Q be appropri ated to the colleges of Westminister. Mon mouth, Muskingum, Tarkio and C Memorial and the two seminaries, Alle gheny and Xenia. 2. That the work of raisincr the amount be entrusted to trie lioard of Education. 3.

Of th- balance two-thirds shall cc to the college and one-third to the seminar ies. The balance to lie distributed in pro portion to the attendance in these various institutions reported during the year l-'.ij-4, the attendance being based upon the basis of the number of students ir, tlat collegiate department. The next report taken up for niwslilais tion was the report ot UM committee on Ijoard of l'ubliration. The committee re ported congratulating the Ward on its fin ancial suctetss, that notwithstanding the stringttney of the times: their business has increased and they have made money. The -inking fund has increased $.1,000. The imard has ljettn faithful in introducing llible Songs into uaicn meetings, non sectarian schools and etc. Notwithstand ing all her financial tOeeOM, the 'Ommittee fei.-l that the iKiard of I'ublication has not enough missionary spirit; that they are more for making money than furthering the cause of our church. Its prices are two high and it is net popular with many of its customers. Tbe committee present the following resolutions 1 which have been abridged) for their adoption. 1. In order to increase the popularity and efliciency of this board of tin; thun h, do recommend the appointment of a com mitUte of three to examine into the policy, work, business methods, complaints, and etc., and report to the next (leneral As sembly. As would 1! expected this resolu tion nnovoked no little discussion, but was voted down with a large majority. 2. That the Assembly approves of the advertisements in the Christian Union, iiuarterlies and other rieriodicalH to help pay expenses; but we feel great caution should be shown in the selection of them. Dr Ittid offered the following amendment "Beaolrad that the assembly disapprove of any advertisement in tho Christian l.'uion or llible Teaiher" but the amendment was lost, and the resolution of the committee was adopted. Q3. That the busincs manager andfr-ditor of the Christian . I'nion be direeb'd b) make this paper wholly devoted to tho interests of the vounir people nnd not aim to make it a family journal. This resolu ion was voted down, but afterwards a mo tion was made for reconsideration and carried. A second vote on the resolution, however, resulted the same as tho first. 4, That the board be ordered to issue, as soon as possible, an "edition of the Bible Hongs without the denominational imprint ; or if this be impracticable to preparcar.il publish without this imprint another book suitable for use in union meetings and by other churches. After some discussion tho resolution was adopted. 5. That tho board of I'ublication be re lieved from further oversight of Sabbath School work and that a suirerintendent and a coarmitleo on Habbath Svhools Ikj appoint- en. The assembly did not sustain the com inittee in this part of their report 6. That the board of Publication be I directed to dispense with its retail depart- ment. aa at present COndocUd and that it do all its retail business through depositor ies. The vote of tho assembly was against this imitation. To this report Hr A G Wallace offered the following resolution for incorporation into the report: He solved, that the board of Publication lie re- Hiested to omit, hereafter, in nil future editions of the Bible Songs, Ihe preface as found on the first leaf liev KG Kyle KMO offered a resolution which was incorporated and which is: Uesolved. that we rci-uost the board of Publication to stiike out Iroiu the title page of the Psalter, in all future editions the word "Of the United Preeby t er in n church of North American.'' After all these alterations tlie report as a whole was adopted. KVr.M.NO NF.SMON. The order of the day for the evening was a conference on Sabbath Schools. Kev Al liort Wareham. of the Presblery of Albany presided. I'rof Wiley, of Monmouth, III., presented B paper OB the "Organi.ation and Management of Sabbath Schools." Itev Samuel j Lindsay, to whom was at signed the subject of Presbyterial Insti tute'' was not present and so was omitted. Kev I A MeCtenahan, I D. next ire seted a paper M"Adranoed Bible study". The author of this paper, while not con denming the International Sabbath School Lessons, yet endeavored to to show that they are too fragmentary. To remedy this the author recommended a "Hook Study" ol the lfiule and also that it l stuiliisl by subjects. Prcceeance. however, was given to book study, as the prime method. Kev S J Kyle, of Artrvle Presbytery, spoke on t'rin'mrv Work m the Sabbath School." The speaker emphasized the nuporl:uice of ebiki the Sabiiath School, they should lie first hunted out and then in structed. Childhood is the time for lasting impressions to be made and the only time when the mind is pliable. Kev S B Smiley, of Caunonshurg, Pa., spoke on Ihe pri mary Object of all Sabbath School Work." The primary object was set fcrth as being not merely the gathering together of so many pupils or presenting to them ivrtain lessons, but rather the effort to glorify I kti in the salvation of .-oul-.

Chicago, under the ciirgo of 1' L i Moody. Owing to the prejudice among oher denominations to our Bibh8ongi: and I'sa ter as being denomination-! the committee suggested the publication of a , book similar lo Bible Song", but withcut i the imprint that would make it a denomi i national We therefore iivommend (hat our Board of Publication be directed to ! pub'ish at early a date as possible a I look of the general character of Bible I S?ngs, but wi'hoot Iim ilnnmnlnaiinnal im- r,;at.

Kesolved, 1st. Tba' we regard tbe IkjOOC traffic as the over shadowing curse of this nation; an entiny to the peace, purity and prosperi ty of the ho.ne, the church and state. To license this traffic is a sin against God and a crime against humanity. Being morally wrong it can never be made legally rigt-t. "For the Son of God was manifested'' not to regulate "but to de stroy the works of the Devil." In this connection we lament the fact that one of our states enjoying the benefit of pro hibition baa taken a backward step and its legislation has so far forgotten the dignity of law as to bargain for (ha vio ation of its own statute. We believe that Hie time has fully come when chriitians should cease to be indifferent and should unite their efforts regardless of previous party alfilliationg for its com plete suppression. 2.
