peared before the Session, on the Sth OF January,
and asked for the specifications of the charges, ne
found to his surprise, and that of many others
that the charge was for slanderons words, &C.
used at the meeting Of the church on the 24th
of Sept
Mr.. Tappan had employed stenographer to
90 with him to the meeting, and preserve, for his
use, full and precise account of all that transpir-
ed and he soon saw the necessity for such a
step, for only part of the proceedings were made
the subject of record by the Session. At the COM
mencement of the second evening the Session
excluded the stenographer. Having taken good
advice, Mr.. Tappan appeared the third evening,
with the stenoorapher and insisted on his right
to have all the proceedings taken down for his
USE The whole evening was consumed in dis
cussino the NATTER and as the accused would not
Weld this point, the Session resolved that he be
SUSPENDED from the communion of the church
for CONTUMACY, until he shall give evidence
Of repentance. The accused has appealed to the
Presbytery. A general sentiment Of indignation
has been expressed, at the bold, unconstitutional
and tyrannical conduct of the Session. We leave
TO the religious newspapers the discussion of their
part of the matter having room only to mention
the facts, and to OBSERVE that as courts both Sec
tlar and ecclesiastical, are necessarily invested
with great discretionary power, it is highly impor-
tant to the protection of the sub ects from remedi-
less oppression, that all judicial proceedings should
be open to public inspection.
In connexion with the above we have learned
that devoted aboEtionis in Philadelphia has been
suspended from the communion of Presbyterian
church in that city for nnti-savery action. 1t is
a remarkable coincidence, that the pastor of that
church, read to his flock, on the 1911 Of December,
a paper disappearing the formation of an ant-sla-
very society," and that the refractory member was
cited to appear before the Session on the 8th of
january. Does a conspiracy exist in the Presby-
terrain church to put down anti-slavcry action a.
mong its members? We shall see.

Herman, Me. was found at dusk, on the 18th ult.
in the road, about a mile from his house, in a
piece of woods He was lying upon his back,
and his horse standing by his side. Blood was
flowing from each ear, and he was taken up for
dead. He was carried to a neighboring house,
and physician Immediately called. wound
was found upon his head, just above his right ear.
After lying four days speechlese he revived He
was asked if he fell from his horse He answer
ed no. He was then asked if he knew the per-
sons in the room. He gave them to understand
that he did, and called some of them by name. He
then asked, if he thought he should be hap
py, He replied no; and desired one of the breth-
rem to pray with him, which was done. He was
then asked, if he saw Mr.. Hambleton, "a person
who lived in the woods near where he was found
on his way. eyes," said he, "and ought to be
hung" He was asked why? Said he, Gle

horse, and then struck me and knocked me down"
He was asked what Hambleton struck him with,
and replied, "with an elm but" He remained in
distressing situation four days. Just before his
death, he said to his wife that he was happy, and
it would be well with him. Not long before his
DEATH knowing that his family would be left to
the mercies of the world and be subject to many
privations, he called his wife and two of his neigh

them around their necks, trying to talk but could
not, but expressed great anxiety for his family.
What must the fathers feelings have been while
leaving a wife and eight children under such cir
cumstances! A jury of doctors examined his head,
and found the skull severed nearly from the top on
the right side down by the ear and across near
ly to the left ear. The jury said that he must
have received an uncommonly heavy blow. o
may those who are harboring spirit Of revenge
take warning, and pray God to change their heart
from hatred to love. The deceased was in his
39th year. His funeral was attended by the VIII
ter on the 10Th ult. and discourse delivered to
large concourse of friends, from Eph. A 25, 81.

A newspaper writer in Baltimore, states that
any one may select fifty men in the state of Ma
ryland, most distinguished for talents, and it will
be found that they begun the world without dol
lar. This, to be sure is rather extravagant as
sefton, and we very much doubt whether it would
be fully carried out by facts. Still it is near e.
nough the truth to illustrate an important moral
principle namely, that it is to the children of the
poor-the self-made men-those dependant on the
patrimony of their own exertions-to whom we
are to look for the safety and permanency of the
republic. The enervating influence of wealth is
beyond the cavl or doubt OF any one the least ac-
quainted with human nature, or the history OF the
world and it is the best feature of our system
that riches not made hereditary, but are eftto
change hands through the moral revolutions of So
ciety. The poor men Of the present generation
will become the wealthy of the next, just in pro-
portion as natural causes continue to operate
How utterly foolish, then, is it for men to labor
their whole lives in order to accumulate wealth for
their children, which in nine cases out of ten
proves a curse instead of blessing Dos. Times.
