After devo tional pxerelHiM the Tresbyterlan as si'tnbly convened as an eoclosiaHtical eout't. The assembly ordered, (with evident contusion and a lack of under- standing at just what they were doing) that roll be called, the coinmlaHioiiei'.i ta iney wcn caileil to (five their nasonti for their votes. Speeches were llinlled to three minutes. While this preliminary was beini? settled, HrigK-s quietly came hi and took a sent. Under the call of the toll cai'h member rose In turn and stated whether he voted for or against entertaining the appeal from the New York Presbytery, which acquitted Prof. Briggs, and his reason thotAjfor uan or presDyteries by states pro gresstid as far Kansas when recess was taken till 2:30 p. m. , After recess the dabate was contin ued with a majority of the speakers agninsst Dr. Brings, though he found a number of supporters,' the most nota ble one, perhaps, being a graduate of Union Theological Seminary, James F. Oawln, missionary to Chile. Elder Thomas McDougall, of Cincinnati, pre elpltated a lively scene. "If It be In order," he began, "I would like to ask If the omniseence, tho veracity, the character of God Almighty, or of the Lord Jesus Christ may be questioned? Clod Almighty has that Isaiah has said thus and so. Dr. Criggs has said to God Almighty that Isaiah did not write half the book that bears his name. The Lord Jesus Christ said in tho New TV tament that Isaiah wrote the book bear ing his name." Dr. Henry JL Storrs I tall the gen t'.emah to oriler. Rev. H. Milton Shields, of New Mex ico If the statement is not. quoted ,ln Dr. Rrlggs' Inaugural, It ts not before the assembly. Th colloquy waa carried on In the midst of great confusion, disorder ris ing from all purls of the house, and tho modetnlor and McDhugnll both trying to be heard. The storm having calmed down, Elder McDougall eon eluded: Christ said no man can come unto the, father but by me. Dr. Brlggs says,' 'Martiuenu found God through reason, and Newman found him through the' church,', whom will you believe ChiLst or Dr. Driggs?" An extension of Knlf an hour to the afternoon session enabled the clerk to make progress In thr. roll through the synod of Oregon. The assembly then took recess until Ibis evening. Call roll was' i-emimed at the even ing session. It was o'clock when tho niodi'i alor put the intention: '-'liall the sn'cIil'etitions of error be sus tained? and Dr. Huberts staled that tho clerk reiul the first epcclllcutions, in substance that the presbytery of New York, on objections made by Dr. liriggrt, required the prosecuting com mitter to amend the charges and spec ifications by striking out charge four The specifications were declared sus tained by n, vote of 282 to 100. Fpecl fioatioiiH, ticcond to twelfth, all relat ing to it-regulations In tho proceed ings of the New York presbytery were sustained seriatim. The second ground of appeal alleged the receiving" of im proper testimony, and -was based uton those ijiecllletLtlons. On the first di vision taken thw result was that the specification was sttrtained by viva voca vote. Tho third ground of appeal alleged a manifestation of prejudice in the conduct of the ctir.e. The fifth and lat ground of nppcal continued specl fieat!i)ii.e of error and charged mistake or injustice In the decision. The votes on. these specifications were taken with out a division, reuniting in the declare tlon of-each and pv-ery one being sus tained. Ri'V. Yv". C. Young, of Ken tucky, then moved that the roll lie called nnd the assembly vote upon the main question, "Shal tho appeal be sustained," which was adopted. Roll was called umldsr on almost painful silence. The-vote announced was as follows: Whole) number .f voles cast, 4!9; to sustain api-aJ, 2Wi; to sustain In liart, 85: total to 8'jrtiiln appeal, 582; not to sustain, 111 When , motion was made for 5'he appointment of a committee to express the si nre of tho assembly a? to the action that should 1 I a ken upon t'ha judgment of the prcibyl-.i-y of New Y k. am) v. lun penalty should be lm pwd against Dr. 'ifc. if any.
