Of success OF the efforts To c>taln the Tllco-
logical Seminary at Greenvillc, :. c.. and
commenting the seminary To the renewed

called forth Il few remarks from Ecy. DR..
.Jctcr. He eulo@iZed III the highest terms
the institution spoken Of in the resolution.
and spoke OF the faculty as composed OF
men Of great learning and ability. There
are now more students there than there are
at any other Baptist seminary in this coun-
try but many more are needed. We must
train warriors for the maintenance Of the
truth. and to contend with the popular
errors of rationalsm, rtlaism, or i'll what
ever form the cuemy may appear at
Grcenyile this training may be procured /;
and this is one Of the reasons why that
seminary should be sustained by the Bap-
fists Of the South.
Rev. Dr.. Samson commended the course
of instruction at GrCcurille. He spoke also
of the WAY III which the errors Of RATIONAL
ism, ritualism, and po>itiyi>m, are creeping
into the minds OF men, and how they are to
be met.
Professor Harris, Of Richmond College,
said that they wanted ut Grccnyilc two
classes Of mcn-tirSt, young men who have Il
thorough classical education; second, those
who have good English education. HI"
course Of instruction was arranged with re-
ference to these two classes Of students. lie
remarked, too, that this seminary afforded
opportunity for the cultivation OF personal
piCtv in addition to the advantages pre-
Senled for intellectual culture.
The resolution OF Dr. Curry was then
adopted,
