meeting at misplace still continues under
the supervision of the Rev. Mr.. Fry, who
| is an, able minister; a, self-reliant man.
who has the atIdacity and Independence
/ to denounce iniquity and wrong whether
it exists in the, church or outside of 1t.
1t is duty enjoined upon the clergy by
| the holy requisitions OF the gospel to make
profert Of the sins OF the people. Mr.. Fry
| as true, honest, upright man scorns the
passive and docile style Of preaching,
characteristic OF too many of our minis

current for fear of incurring the i'll Will of
the people. In justice to Mr.. Fry he has
done more TO impress upon the minds of
the people what constitutes true religion
than any minister that has preached TO us

l. General Buller and Judge White, of
Alabama, having been appointed sub
committee on the two bills heretofore
introduced in the House and referred to
the committee on Judiciary to abolish
the test of the iron-clad oath In all cases
where it is now required by law, have
prepared report upon the subject in
favor of abolition, which they will this

seems to be no doubt that majority of
the House are i'm favor of relief. iA.s.z
