The topic was "The Duty of the Church in
relation to the Christian Sabbath and the
Cause Of Temperance"
On the latter part of the subject, namely,
Temperance" the Rev. Pennell Coombe
made lengthy report setting forth that the
Temperance reform proposed the overthrow
of intemperance by the destruction of the
system which upheld it. The reverend
speaker argued that intemperance was not
J altogether personal sin, but governmental
one, and was also the enemy of the Church.
| At the close of the report resolutions were
Nadopted expressing it as the sense of the Con-
vention that the Church should cooperate
with the advocates of temperance. Hon.
John McCalmont, and Captain Stimbaugh, of
Mauch Chunk, and others, participated in
| the discussion. After the transaction of
other business of an unimportant nature the
Convention adjourned until this morning
