Mr.. THEODORE TrLroS got the floor, but gave
| way TO
Mr. O.KEs who " as afraid of dscord in the Church.
He did think that the Church ought ID cut OH the

could exercise no discretionary power in what should
be done with that money, or what particular mission

rome days ago. that the Southerners did not like Med
ical Cole ges and many other thugs Ut there was
one thing which they did like, at was Theological
Summaries. He coptended that the duty OF the Amer

| il had BEEN The Cherokees would one day be
knocking at the door Of Congress for admissi N TO

come in that ehapei JuSt because the American
Board had refused to give any instructions against Sa

ample Justice to Mr. Titon's speech, which sbounded

| Mr. SPEscER believed in Conservativism
| Mr. DIBBLE also advocated the interests Of the
