stored to regular standing Rev. DR.. Pomroy,
late Secretary Of the Board Of Commissioners
for Foreign Missions. The charges against DR..
Pomroy were First, conduct inconsistent with
virtue, purity and morality, in yielding to tho
enticements of vile women, and visiting them ut
their homes. And secondly, immortality and
ndccency, in carrying on On improper CORES
pondence with woman ofdisreput able charac-

this confession Is accompanied by renewed ex-
pressions of penitcnce and humility, and with
q disavowal of all desire to exonerate himself
from blame. In this connection, also, he re-
news his denial Of the actual crime which has
been so extensively taken for granted, and tells
us that it did not occur to him, until after his
address to the Christian public had gone into
the public prints, that the language Of that ad-
dress could be interpreted as o confession OF o
