In the Naw School General Assembly the
Question Of Slavery being before that body,
On the eighth day Of the session, MIR. Clel-
land, Of Kentucky, read document setting
forth as the position Of the Southern church

ing IS the family relation.
Mr.. Soarritt, OF St. Louis, said that be and
his associates had declined to sign that paper
and should take no part in the controversy.
We are right glad that this question is
coming fairly and fully before the General
Assembly and the world. We rejoice that
We shall no longer be humbugged with false
pretences as TO the position of the Church.
We want a direct decision by the General
Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, either
Affirming tho doctrine Of 1916 against Slave
~, or repudiating that doctrine and assuming
the doctrine presented in solemn form in the
General Assembly, as the position Of the
Churches South, that Slavery stands upon
the same platform as the family in the Pres
byterian Church. And after the decision
has been clearly announced, We wish to see
1t boldly an dunfinchingly carried out in the
practical administration by the judicator
and executive officers Of the Church.
The position avowed by the New School
Presbyterians is identical with that Of the
christians of every denomination in the South,
whatever pretences may be made by their
brethren in the North to the contrary. And,
o matter Of course, no Church can admit
the entertainment Of such faith on the part
Of large proportion Of its lay and clerical
members, and the practical application Of
the doctrine in one-half of it's judicatories,
without thereby giving an actual sanction
and endorsement to the doctrine, to satisfy
the conscience Of their Southern members,
and to certify to the world that holding
is blessed Of God, even a. the marriage rela-

CvA movement has been set on foot by
the Tractarians which will somewhat stsrtls
the religious world, and especially the evan.
gelical party in the Church, when they be-
come acquainted with it through our col
umns. Deeply mortified at the series of ad-
mirable ecclesiastical appointments which
Lord Palmerston has made since his advent
to the Premiership, they have determined on
addressing the Queen, the two Houses of
Parliament, and the two Houses Of Convo-
cation, praying that either the present sys-
TEN of appointing Bishops may be altered by
taking the power Of appointment out Of the
hands Of the Premier, or that, If it should
be deemed expedisnt to continue that power
in the hands Of the Prime Minister, that
there may be an impartial selection from all
parties in the Church, 10 that clergymen Of
every variety of religious belief in the es-
tablishment may have their relative share Of
the higher class OF good livings. 1t is con-
6dcntly expected that out Of the $4,000 cler-
gymen in the Church, from 6,0O0 to 1900
will sign these addresses. 81 Morning Adver-
tiser.

CHEAP PAINT.

IF any Of our readers wish to use q
very cheap and substantial paint, of a
drab color, without lustre, let them
mix water lime with skinned milk, te
a proper thickness to apply with g
brush, and til is ready to use. 1t is
too cheap almost to estimate, and any
one can put it on who can use a paint
brush. It will adhere well to wood
whether smooth or rough-to brick
stone or mortar, where oil paints have
not been used, in which case it will
cleave to some extent, and forms a
very hard substance, as durable as
the best oil paint.
