They pleaded in defense the receLt action Of the Legs
a.ure respecting the vote OF every person having asy

submitted TO the Court This morning Judge Foo;s
declared for the plaintiff, declaring the Black Law"
10 be unconstitutional. The Court held that under the
old Constitution of Ohio al persons having more than
hall white blood were declared to be legally white
The Constitution merely mentioned white per-

any law declaring person having more than half

The essay by Gao. S. Fox gave nse to an animated
debate.
The Rev. JAS. ELS of Cleveland said that the
employed IN large cities might be the best for
alier places-we ought to fully consider whether all
our efforts should be for young men. There was no
such thing maintaining efficiency and life but by
giving the members something 10 do, such "a msslon
sct Ools, distributing tracts, &c. This bad reflex
influence the Associations and made them IsOsper
The Rev. G. G. SMITH Of Macon, Ga, followed 10
the same strain and elOqueny advocated the widest
extension OF the field Of Christian labor for the Asso-
Citations.
R.C McCoRnIcK Of New-York thought it idle to
pass resolutions TO shat our sphere; we can
not limit or oefoe it rgicy; let 60 in aud occupy
every field not previously taken and be always ready
fos the Masters service.
