Lexington Presbytery.

Most of the proceedings of this Presbytery
were published by us, before the abstract was
received from the Stated Clerk. We give below
such as have not been previously inserted.
There were present during orr sessions
twenty five ministers and twenty ruling elders.
1t was truly cheering and delightful to be in
a body of forty-fvc members of Presbytery, so
harmonious and courteous in all their proceed
ings. And what added no little to the pleas
ure of all, was to see the venerable pastor of
the church, Dr. Mcfarland able to be with us
and participate actively in all the business be-
fore the body.
Rev. Robert Scott of the Presbytery of
Platte, Missouri, had leave to labor within our
bounds until the next meeting of Presbytery,
and Rev. Messrs. w. w. Trimble and r. Lewis
obtained leave to labor without our bounds fol
the present. .-..-
Rev. n. w. Calhoun had leaye to supply
the Pendleton church for the present
Rev. J. A. Scott had leave to supply Ole
Oxford until the next meeting.
Rev j. Rice Bowman had leave to supply
Mt. Horeb church until the lst of June next.
Rev J. H. Gilmore had leave to supply
Fairfield church till the next meeting of Pres
bytery
The following supplies were appointed:
Rev r. D. Bell and j. Pinkerton, one Sab
bath in Pendleton; Rev. w E. Baker and W
T. Richardson, one Sabbath each at Lebanon
Rev. G. S. M. See, two Sabbaths in Randolph
Rev. E. d. Junkin, one Sabbath at Bethesda
Rev. w. Pinkerton, one Sabbath at Timber
ridge Rev. f. III. Bowman, one Sabbath a
Rocky Spring Rev. E. Thomas, second Sab

Walker, enc Sabbath at Monterey; Rev. E.
Thomas, fifth Sabbath of September at Pisgah
Rev. j. r. Bowman to supply one Sabbath il

Stated Clerk.

FoR THE CENTRAL PRESBYTERIAN.
North Alabama Presbytery.
LEwIsBURG, TENNESSEE,
SanAanalnr Ttl 1OCC

LEwIsBURG, TENNESSEE,
September 18th, 1866.
The Presbytery of North Alabama met ac-
cording to adjournment, and was opened with
a sermon by Rev. A. l.. Kline from Acts xiii
80 verse.
There were eighteen Ministers and sixteen
Ruling Elders present.
Rev. j. Simpson Frierson was unanimously
elected Moderator, and Rev. f. L. Ewing,
Temporary Clerk.
Revs. j. n. Caldwell, and John n. Black
burn, of the Presbytery of Holston, and Rev.
P. L. Atkinson, of the C.. p. Church being
present, were invited to sit as corresponding
members
Rev. J. Stevenson Frierson reported that
the assessments due Stewart College from the
churches of the Old Maury Presbytery was a:
follows, viz: Zion, 500; Columbia, $50;
Pulaski, $40; Hopewell, $50; Bethesda, $50;
Mt. Pleasant, $50; Williamsport, $50.
When the above amounts are paid, the
amount assumed by said Presdytery will be
louidated-to wit-t,oo hundred and fifty dol
lars
Mt. Pleasant is the only church which has
responded to said amount.
Rev. f. A Thompson complied with the or
der of Presbytery at recent meeting by laying
the record book of the Old Presbytery Of West
Tennessee, on the Moderator's table.
The Committee on the Narrative Of the
State of Religion, made the following report:
From the Free Conversation on the State OF
Religion it appears that in some parts of our
Presbyterial Zion there is no marked degree OF
lively zeal, but rather degree of GOODNESS and
languidness; whilst, in other parts, there have
been gracious outpourings of the Holy Spirit
and clear evidence Of growth and advancement.
Presbytery resolved that reports on Recip-
rocal Duties be written and reported by the
clerk of each church session to the Presbytery
at its Fall session.
On motion, Presbytery directed the churches
of Stones River, Cripple Greek, Hopewell,
and Spring Greek, to apply to the Presbytery
of Nashville to be taken under its care accord
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1866-10-10

1t would be an unspeakable comfort to us
to be at perfect peace with others, especially
Presbyterians But they may as well kno"
that as long as they feel themselves at liberty
to deal so freely with our silver plate, gold spec
tacles, and ourchurches, our best people, whIie
praying to be kept from all malice, feel COM
PEELED to obey the injunction" From such
,oitkdra,o thySe!f"
1t should be mentioned for the qualification
of all good men, that the discussion between
the two gentlemen named has been conducted
with much courtesy on both sides.
Long as this article IS already, we cannot
close it without copying parts of Dr. Backus
letter in which he gives expression to his feel
ings towards his brethren in the South. When
we fail to meet such tokens of good will and
desire to cultivate good relations with us, let
the righteous smite us. Dr. B. says
IAN the world will not make me believe that
my Southern brethren are not worthy OF my
confidence and affection and your Northern
brethren are really as worthy of yours.
