The SOUTHERN IN. 81 PREsBYTERtAN
CHURCH AND THE BUFFALO GENERAL Assem-.
BLY, on The SLAVERY QUEsTioN.-Ths Con
ven;ion of the Southern members CT the New
School Presbyterian Church at Murfreesbo-
rough, Tennessee, in session recently, referred
to a Committee, for consideration, The action
of the Gensral Assembly lately sitting at
Buffalo, New York, on the subject of Slavery.
The report of the Committee strongly con
dennis the uncalled for Interference in mat
tiers that they say do not concern the North
ern Chmch. As summary of the conclu
sions to which they have come on mature
reflection, they submit the following Resolu-
tons:
l. We hold ourselves and The members Of
the church we represent, TO be an INTEGRAL
portion of the Pre- bylerian church in the Uni
ted States and entitled to all the rights and
inm0nit es Of said church.
2. 10 regard to slavery, we stand upon the
platform of the Bible and the con .tIuiion Of
the church, which in our opinion no where
teaches that he holding of slaves is q sin or dis

luton passed by The General Assembly at De.

NoIsELEss CARRIAGE WHEELs.-A project
was started some years ago, as our readers
may remember, to cover the rims of carrisge
wheels with India Rubber, TO prevent noise
when moving over payements. 1t VAS how
ever, never adopted to any great extent, prob.
ably because the proper preparation OF that
substance was not then understood. We see
by an article in the Boston Transcript that the
project is about TO be revived. The writer
states that the tires are to be made from TO
II inch thick, that now manufactured, they
will last for an incredible length Of time, and
that in coach with such wheels, the sensa.
ton is like that which one might expect in
riding over a road composed of layers Of vel
vet. This must be delightful. We hope the
improved wheels will come into general use in
Richmond, for on some of our streets the
noise Of Passing carriages both to the ms and
tie outf, is q great annoyance.
I A stranger irum uarrsonburg in this
State, employed on the Manassas Gap Rail
road, was injured some weeks ago, by coming
in contact With The cars when in rapid motion.
He died atlAlexandria, Va, or, Monday night
and the remains having been enclosed in a
metallic burial case furnished by the railroad
company, were conveyed 10 Harrisonburg un-
der the care Of committee Of the Free Ma
sons Of Alexandria.
II An Injunction mas been asked tor IN
the Supreme Court OF Pennsylvania TO re
strain the corporation Of Philadelphia from
subscribing to The STOCK Of the Hempheid
Railroad Co., and the Easton and Water Gsp
Railroad Co. The proposed subscriptions
amount to $l,oeO,OOO. The argument com.
menced on Tuesday, and will probably con
tinue several da,s.
