The Syuods Of the Old School Presby
terians have, without exception IN the
loyal States, during the recent sessions
of these bodies, placed their Church in
a position directly hostile to slavery.
The position Of the Old School Prsshy-
FtsriaasA On this Question was naivsly
stated by minister in the Synod recent
ly in session in this city. The posi-
ton" said the minister, of the Nation
al Government was not to interfere with
slavery srhers it existed; the position oi
the Old School PresbyteEians was not to
interfere rkile it existed" Now the
Old School Church neither endorses the
rebellion nor its caase--slavery. The
Chicago Synod passed o resolution hy q
vote of 4eto 7, endorsing the action OF
the General Assembly, which recem
mended that clergymen and laymen who
had particpaitediin. the late rebellion, and
who believed slavery TO be divine in
stitution, should not be considered mem
