THIRD DAY

THIRD DAY
1 BALTIMORE, Nd, May 9.-Last night an I'M
mense mass meeting was he'd IN the First Bap-
tist Church in behalf of the domestic missions
by Rev. ]. B. Hawthorne, of Alabama, Rev. E.
N. Warren, of Georgia, Rev. S. Landrum, Of
Georgia, and DR.. IL. T. Sumner, OF Alabama.
at the close Of the services COLLECTION was
taken up, amounting to two thousand dollars.
The convention began it's session to-day
with devotional exercises, conducted by Rev.
J. r. Graves, OF Tennessee. Rev. DR.. Poin-
dexter suggested that SPECIAL prayer be offered
up in behalf of our country, and at his request
Rev. DR.. Jeter, of Virginia, led the congrega-
ton IN prayer. The main subject Of interest
to-day was the Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary, located at Greenvllle, s. q. Some
of the ablest speeches which have been made
we're upon this question. The seminary sp-
pealed Tor AID TO continue its operations. Ihe
professors had been subjected to many priva-
tions and hardships, aud unless relieved would
be forced, by the pressure of circumstances, to
resign, s )eeches were made by Rev. Messrs.
Boyce, Broadus, Williams, Winkler, Manly,
Hayne, Biting, Welch, Curry, and others. Rev.
]. L. NJ. Curry made one Of his ablest efforts.
As platform speaker DR.. Curry has probably
no superior. He is we'll known to the country as
rising man IN the old Congress OF the United
States, and afterwards as prominent member
of the Confederate Congress. He is now Bap-
tist minister and President OF Howard College,
Alabama. The congregation responded ibe-
rally to the appeals which were made, and a
considerable sum, was raised to relieve the
seminary. Ons gentleman in the congregation
sent up to the secretary's desk his check for
one thousand dollars. Rev. DR.. Fuller's church
pledged to pay FIVE hundred dollars annually
for five successive years. The friends Of the
seminary are much encouraged, and feel that
il Ia now upon O. permanent basis.
The rarlous pulpits of the city will be filed
Tomorrow by members Of the Convention. The
people Of Baltimore will have an opportunity
Of hearing The ablest diviues Of the Baptist de-
nomination.
The Convention will probably adjourn on
Monday next. The next session will likely be
held st Jackson, Tennessee. ,

sS CIRCULAR.-To THE LADIES OF
THE VARIOUS CHURCHES IN THE CITY OF
CHARLESTON.-we, the officers and Members OF
the Young Mems Christian Association Of Charles
ton, would take this method Of respectfully appeal
ing to you for assistance. We propose holding
= A FLORAL FESTIVAL OR FAIR,
during the latter part OF the coming month Of May
hoping we may thereby realize sufficient amount
to enable us 10 continue during the present year the
various religious and charitable works which we
have commenced aud thus far carried on with great
success but which we must necessarily but reluc-
tantIy abandon, unless we derive aid from some
source. The plan OF Festival OF Fair, during the
season Of flowers, has suggested itself to our minds,
and we feel assured that 1t only requires you assis-
tance to make it complete success.
We propose that the ladies' OF each church prepare
one table OF booth supplying the same With such ar
tcles for sale as their own good judgment may sug-
gest, believing that generous emulation thus en-.
gendered, as to which shall best succeed, will, when
aIl are combin:d In one collection, present most
elegant and complete display; and, furthermore that
each tab.ercman under the control Of the ladies' who
prepared st. In order that at the close of the Fair it
may be seen which has succeeded best in the enter
prise, and thereby contributed the largest amount
towards the cause in which we are oil so interested
We, therefore, respectfully call upon the Indies
composing the various congregations Of all evangel-
cal denominations in this city, to combine among
themselves, and commence at once the preparation
OF such articles as their own fancy and judgment
may dictate. Let all assist the humbest as well a'
the wea' thieDt and with united enc gies carry out
this work.
The members Of the Association win, one and al,
cheerfully perform all and every labor that may be
required them, and will hold themselves always N
readiness to obey every rcqres
Those ladies' who are willing to assist us are re.
quested to meet every FRIDAY Afternoon at Five
O'Clock, in the rooms of the Association tin King.

BALTIMORE, Nd, May 8-After devotional
exercises the Convention Was called to order
by the President, Rev. DR.. Nell, Of Georgia.
The delegation has been largely increased by
fresh arrivals. Among the additional visiting
ministers are Rev. DR.. Howard Malcolm, Presi-
dent Of the American Baptist Historical So
ciety.
According to resolution Of the Convention,
the first half hour Of the morning session was
devoted to religious exercises, conducted by
Rev. DR.. Reynolds, Of Columbia, 8. G. At the
conclusion Of these exercises the Convention
heard the annual report Of the Foreign Mission
Board, prepared by Rev. J. d. Taylor, d. D.,
Corresponding Secretary.
The BOARD recommended the resumption OF
the "Home and Foreign Journal" q missionary
periodical, pubhshed by the Board prior to
the late war. The success Of the foreign
missionaries had been considerable. The
Ground, occupied by them was chiefly in
China and Africa, and numbers of hea-
then have been converted to christianity.
While the late war was raging IN our own
country, the missionaries were 70 o great e1-
tent deprived OF the support which they re-
ceiyed from the Southern Baptist Convention.
At the same Tins civil war arose in Africa,
which resulted in serious personal suffering to
the missionaries in that country. In one in
stance, Rev. Mr.. Reed, missionary, was under
the necessity Of preparing the coffin for his
own deceased wife, and Of interring her with
his own hands. The Board urge that the
6eld be still occupied. and that by no means
should the missionary enterprise be abandoned:
Rev. Nj. T. Sumner, D. D., read the report Of
the Domestic Mission Board. This board ls
located at Marion, Ala, and hos been in exis-
tence twenty-three years. 1t has charge Of the
general missionary work within the limits Of
the Southern States, and also prosecutes the
missionary work among the Indian tribes OF
the West. Nearly four Thousand persons had
been baptised by the missionaries Of this board
during the past year. About s27, 900 had been
expended for the spread Of the Gospel in or
own country. Delegates appeared from the
Home Mission Society Of The North, with
fraternal communication for this body, and
Rev. DR.. Jeter offered resolution toreceive it.
The resolution to receive was generally dls.
cussed by Rev. Drs. Jeter, Boyce, Reynolds,
Poindexter, Winkler and Fuller, and adopted.
Rev. DR.. Hague, OF Boston, then read the COM
municaton, which was, on motion OF Rev. DR.:
Fuller, referred to q committee composed CT
one from each State, with the Rev. DR.. WinkIer
as chairman. More anon.

Editors Union and American. D.
CLARKsvILLE, Nov. 25.-The Patriot,
Radical, of this city, edited by ]. ], Buck,
comes out this evening in long and able
editorial in favor of the repeal of the fran
chise law.
DR.. C. L. Wilcox, who drew the Eighth
street St. Louis dwelling-house in the Pas
chall House drawing, has returned from
St. Louis, where he has been TO sell the
house. He found a mortgage on the house
for $4,000, but after considerable difficulty
and threats of law, etc, succeeded in hav-
ing the mortgage paid of by the Associa-
ton. He then traded the house for a lot
of groceries, which will be sold here at
auction on Friday next. The house was
valued in the drawing at SIS, 900, when, in
fact, it was worth only about $4,000.
Your Market street friend Newt. Mcclure
arrived here to-day, and is stopping at the

Knoxville Items.

We clip the following items from the
Knoxville Press and Herald of Tuesday !:
RAILROAD MATTERs.-The sdministra-
ton of the East Tennessee and Georgia
railroad, under President Galloway, during
the pact year, has been very successful.
The road bed ia nov 10 excellent condi-
ton, and the rolling stock in good order.
One Of the greatest improvements he has
made is the covering and weatherboarding
of the fine truss bridge over the HOlston,
at Loudon, which is now nearly completed.
This adds many years to the duration of
the bridge.
A correspondent writes 10 Us from Haw-
kins county, in relation TO the bridge OF
the Eogersyille and Jefferson railroad,
over the HoIstOn at ROgersville, wanting
to know why the money granted by the
State to cover the bridge, has not been ex-
pended for that purpose. He says the
people interested in the road are anxious
to know.
Snow ON THE MOUNTAINS. From the
hills around Knoxville, yesterday, snow
could plainly be seen on the mountains TO
the east of the city. The present fall Of
snow is something unusual in this section.
Hoes The porkhonse is now in active
operation, and prices are well sustained.
The engagements for the present week
sum up about 900 head, at from 81 TO
&c, az to quality.
