CGHcINNATI, Feb. I'm the national religious
convention, Rev. A. ID. Mayor replied TO Nj.
Abbott's protest against the constitutional
amendment recognizing God and the Bible.
Pending the taking Of a collection for the pur-
poses of the convention, Rev Chauncey Barnes,
of Athens, Ohio, took the stand, and was pro-
cccdng TO SHOW, by chart, the principle that
belongs to the practical government of Christ.
One of the pcculiarties OF this was that preach
ers should receive no salary. He was called to
order.
Professor Sloane said the chart was an absurd
ity..
Mr.. Barnes said he hoped the spirit of prciu-
dice would he cast out of the convention. He
was speaking of what God had moved him to
do. Rev. Mr.. Barnes hats built spiritualistic
temple in Athens county. Ii the spirit OF cod
which actuatcd those in Athens county, could
move the hearts OF those present, their contrlOu-
tons would be more liberal.

charge of all the duties of life, with a nature
unsusceptible of malice, kind husband and
father, and practical Christian. We desire 10
express this slight tribute 10 his character,
knowing full well that it will be fully endorsed
by all whose good fortune it was to know him,
and particularly by those who for many years
have been intimately associated with him.
