PRESBYTERIAN GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
IN. ST.
BUFFALO, Nav 20

'orfALo, way oU
The slavery question is still under discussion
in the Presbyterian General Assembly. The
committee modified their report by recommend
ing the Presbyteries of slave holding States to
answer enquiries respecting the number of Slave
holders in the church, &c., instead of appouting
commission to make such enquiries.
. DR.. Ross, Messrs. Holmes. Brantey and Torrey
OF Virginia strongly opposed all agitation on the
| subject; the latter 10 powerful speech urged the
folly and inconsistency of the Assembly interfer-
ing with the churches in slave holding States
and said plainly that every Southern Presbytery
had resolved to secede if the report was adopted
On the other hand. Western Delegates declared
that the Western Presbyteres would separate
from the Assembly ifno action was taken.
AT the evening session the feeling ran high. After
several speeches. and amidst great excitement nearly

TENNESSEE.

Elections for Governor, members of Congress
and State Legislature take place in Tennessee
sometime during the month Of August The
canvass now going on seems to be quite an ami
mated one. The Democratic party are evident
ly making desperate efforts to retrieve their past
defeats, but as the Wings appear to be thorough
ly united. we have no fears as to the result
Their candidate for Governor, Col. Henry, is a
popular man aud a fine stump speaker, and will
doubtless command the entire Wing vote of the
State. Tennessee has never voted the Demo.
cratic ticket in any Presidential election since
1882 when she supported Jackson for the last
time. She repudiated Van Buren, in '36 and 40
Polk in "A, Cass ia '4S, and Pierce in '52. The
Wings have sometimes lost the Gubernatorial
election during this period, but with popular
leader they have never failed to carry the day.
That they will achieve a victory in August next,
we have not a doubt.
We observe that the Tennessee Democracy
have resorted to the desperate expedient of ma
king the .Homestead bili' an article of their
faith.
Their candidate Andrew johnson, is the re-.
puted father of that measure, and accordingly
his political friends have made it an issue in the
canvass. Tne Nashville Union and American

HE DISSOLUTION OF THE CABINET lover
THE LEFT. )-Private letters from New York
tell an:sinS stories Of the dilemma of Ben
nett. Of the Heraid, who begins to realize that
his recent training in or study of the art Of
craftsmanship at Weisbaden. has not made
him so great an adept in controlling the des-
TIMES OF nation, as that he has only to com
man 1, to have the Government obey in u
twinkling. Discovering that his sweeping de-
nunciations, rot-house personalities and sense
less jargon upon public affairs lereled at the
Cabinet, produce, beside laughter at his une-
qualled vanity, only amazenent at the impu-
dence OF his charlatanry, he is said, in the
letters to which we sliude, to have become az.
ceedingly nervous Of late. We must add to
the signs of public derision around him, sery
ing to dissruntle him-information of the
fact that at no time since the 4th of March
last, was there greater harmony, unity of
purpose and confidence in the entire success
OF their Administration among the members
OF the GOvernment-the President and his
otficlal advisers-whO coincide to the letter ~
to the proper policy to be pursued in the
matter of the New York difficulty. This fact
is evident to all here who take the tronble 70
inform themselves in the premises. We give
Bennett this Information. that he NAV :.wbis,,e
and break up" ere he bursts his suspender
buttons; that now being evidently the greatest
harm that can possibly accrue to any one from
tho manner in which be is putting into prac-
tlce the lessons OF statesmanship he learned
from the funkies at Weisbaden.
The CONTEST IN NEW JERsEY.-In offoial
circles in W Washington, an impression evidently
prevails that the Wings have very fair chance
of carrying New Jersey at the approaching
election, despite the great personal popularity
of the Hon. Rodman NJ Price, the Democratic
nominee for Governor In truth. if we are
not vastly mistaken, no member of Tho Gov
eminent here, however much they mav all
like those who lead = the party in that State
personally, have the remotest sympathy with
the monopoly principle in defence of wbirb
those leaders are accused of having planted
themselves. This indisposition to the Demo.
cratic side Of what is fast becoming the ONLY
issue between the parties in New JERSEY a..
counts for much of the misgivng as to the
result of the approaching election to which
VIC refer. We judge Of the feeling of the
Government in this matter, only by the con-
versation Of their subordinntes. 1t is thought
that the Identification of the leaders Of the
party with the New Jersey Railroad and
Transportation Company-otherwise called
the Camden and Amboy Monopoly-will lose
Mr.. Price many Democratic votes. while the |
action OF the recent New Jersey State Tenn
perance Convention, in nominating the Wing
standard bearer as their candidate also. can
h@r"iy iaii greatly to strengthen the latter's
prospects Under these circumstances, it is
believed in Washington that Mr.. Price is beset
