Q We see nothing in the. present &C
ton which is Unconstitutional or ede-
grades, H'or even reflects upon any por,
ticn Of the Southern Church which still
abides by the old doctrine Of the Presby-
terrain Church in relation to this sub.
lject.
}. With The respect to the complaint
"that such action is, under present con-
ditions, the virtual exscinding of the
South, the Assembly observe, that no
such exscision is intended, and we can
not perceive that it is in any way involv-
ed even by remote Implication. We
have simply reaiirmed the established
views of the Presbyterian Church on the
subject of slavery, and distinctly con-
demned the new and counter doctrines
which have been disclored and defend
ed BIZ some within our bounds.
i. With regard to the allegation that
our action in this case is u~nrighteous,
oppressive-uncalled for, .'usurpatory
and destructive of great interests" we
need only say that 1t rests on the ground
less assumption hat this action is an Gin.
direct exscision" of the South. If cur
Southern brethren shall break the ami
ty of the Church because we stand by
our former position, as in duty bound,
the responsibility for the consequences
will not rest on this Assembly.

Fx Governor Bebb-gad Affair.


Elk Governor Bebb, formerly of thi:
State, now a resident of Seward, Brock.
ford Co, H.. being molested by a.mob,
fred upon and shot two of them, killing
n man instantly. The Rockford Re.
publican of the Q1st ult., gives the follow.
ing particulars:
On the return Of his son with his wife,
on Thursday night, from the East. With.
er he had been to get married. the rowdy
portion Of the young men of the neigh.
borhood prepared themselves with COW
bells, guns, tin pans, and other articles
ordinarily used on such occasions, and
repaired to the residence of the Governor
at a late hour in the night, and COM
menced all manner OF noises, clamors
and outcries. assailing the house with
stones, and firing towards it with their
guns.
After enduring this assault for some
time in silence, Gov. Bebb made his ap-
p~earanee at the front of his house, and
demonstrated with the mob, requesting
them 10 desiSt. This request was r%ecciv-
ed with hootings and h~owlings. and an
increase of clamor. After a little tine
he again came forward and remarked
tha. patience had ceased to be a virtue,
and that if they did not desist and leave
the premises, be would be compelled TO
use violence. This threat only seemed
to exasp=rate the ~assailants, who replied
that they had come there to fight, and
were only waiting for him to commence,
or words TO such import.
He then went into the house and bro't
out a double barrelled shot gun firing
one barrel at the feet Of the ringleaders
of the mob, which shot took effect upon
one of the party, Gripping him in the
leg. At this some of them dispersed,
while the others rallied and made a rush
upon the Governor, who raised his gun
and discharged the other barrel at fore
most man, hitting Linn in the head and
killing him instantly, whereupon his as
s~ailants suddenly decamped.

CLEANING unnl far frnrlret


The following method of preparing
Eool for market. was adoptedby NIessrs.
Perkins 4 Brown, of Ohio, once extern
siye wool growers, and we insert it at
this time, as being seasonable, and may
prove valuable.
They first wet the wool by immersing
the sheep in the water. Then allow the
sheep to stand in the yard until they be-
come warm. The oil in the wool thus
becomes soapy. and it requires but lit
tie labor afterwards to wash them entire
ly clean. Some writer recommends that
sheep be washed until the water runs
away from them clear and clean. They
should be sheared as soon as dry, which
will be, If the weather be fine, 10 about
three days from the time they are wash
ed.
Il was formerly customary and j snow,
to some extent, for the person who vaslf-
es, to stand in the water up 10 hips until
the whole flock be washed. This is mol
necessary, and can be avoided by taking
a tight barrel, with one head out. or a
hogshead sawed off at a proper hight,
and sinking it into the stream by putting
in rocks or other heavy substances
The washer can then stand in this and
operate in a somewhat dryer condition
than when immersed in the water.
A very good method, where L does
not have deep water convenient for him
to plunge his sheep in, is to make a
lume OF sluice in some stream large
enough to contain a sheep. Into this the
sheep may be placed and washed. The
water may be suffered to run off and the
flume again filed for another sheep,
while the operator, standing on the GU;
side, can work and keep himself dry at
the same time.

NAgrieultural Prosnects.
We ere giad to Learn from farm.

We ere glad to learn from farmers in
nearly all paris of the County. that the
appearance of the growing wheat has
greatly changed for the better within the
last two weeks. Many fields which tkeil
owners had hardly expected would yield
as much as the seed soTn, now promise
at least half a crop. and others where
only half a crop at most had been ex-
.pected, now betoken 90 to 25 bushels
per acre.
The oats crop bids fair to be better
than last year. We have no doubt but
that more acres of corn and potatoes,
ESPECIALLY the latter, are now in the
ground, than were ever planted in Trum-
bull County in any one season.
The apple, pear and cherry trees are
loaded with blossoms, and if not nipped
by an untimely frost, the fruit will equal
in quantity, that of any former year
For the last few days the weather has
been very favorable. and vegetation has
advanced with wonderful rapidity, and
all are looking forward with high hopes
of a year of plenty.

Another Execution of q Murderer, in
Iowa, BY the People.

We are indebted to 4. Weatherbee,
Esq, formerly Of this place, now of Du-
baque, fora copy of The Dubuque Ex-
press, containing the following account
of the hanging of a murderer BY a mob,
in Andrew, jackson Co. Iowa. One
Barger murdered his wife, at Bellevue,
some two years ago. The Express says:
The deed was a Geld blooded one, Bar
ger having remained 1.-THE whole night
living in matt for his wife, and Just as
she appeared at the door in the morning,
of the friends house where she was
stopping. he fred his gun through a
hole he had made in the fence for the
purpose, and killed her.
Barger, We believe has hal one or
two trials already for the murder, aud
at the last, on a juryman stating he had
formed an opinion, Barger's counsel,
Mr.. Leffngwell, moved the court to
grant q new trial, which vas complied
with. This being accomplished. with a
change of venue to Clinton County, Bar.
ger was lodged in the De Witt jail TO
await trial.
This being the state of affairs, and the
people of Andrew and vicinity having an
idea that Barger would escape from a
just punishment, visited The De Witt
Jail, and demanded him and a man by
the name of Carroll, confined for the
same crime and awaiting trial, of the
keepers, and from thence carried them
10 AndreW, and there executed Barger
without any ceremony, or his making
any confession, on Friday, as above. on
the same tree on which they hung lngles
a short lineage. Carroll they placed
in the Jail OF Andrew, where they keep
him at his WI expense until he meets
his trial, which they are determined
shall be had in that county.
