OPINION OF A SPRINGFIELD ENGINEER.
John X. Smith, a Springfield engineer whose
plan was among those rejected by the company,
thought that Tie foundations OF the reservoir were
not properly made There should have been bed
OF concrete. and this concrete should have
tended down into the hard pan and the walls also
should nave been thicker. There were many other
apparent detects in the structure which he would
have avoided If he had been the builder.
THE THOROUGHNEsS OF THE INQUEST.
There IS much public satisfaction at the thor
ough manner IN which Coroner Wright and his
Jury are investigating the cause and responsibility
OF the terrible calamity, and an almost universal
opinion prevails that the verdict rendered will be
severe one. IL Is probable tnat the investigation

THE CHURCH COUNCILS.

The Presbyterian General Assembly,
Sharp Debate ON the Consolidation
Question.
81. LOUIS, Mo-, May %, 1874.
The Presbyterian General Assembly this morning
resumed the debate consolidation. Rev. DR..
Ees, OF San Francisco, said the people in his part
OF the country decidedly In favor OF consollda-
ton. He thought the Sustentatlon and Home Mis-
sions boards could be united with good effect The
facilities of the colportage work should be in
creased. DR.. Aikinan, OF Detroit, agreed with
what had been said, though he represented no
particular section. In regard to missionary sal
aries he thought there should be u uniform system,
instead OF the present mode, wherein the salary
fixed In one place and in another depends upon
the caprice of the congregation.
THE CRY OF GENERALIZATION
he did not ear believing the day was past when
1t could have any permanence in the Church. DR..
William T. Roberts, or Elizabeth, N. j., spoke in
favor of sustentatiOn ana the Board OF Home
Missions which he thought were one work and
should be together. There are two three points
in which they dider, but that could be easily
remeded. The sustentatiOn fund would have
failed long ago had 1t not been ior two gentlemen
in the Board OF Home Misslons-Rev. Mr..
Paxton and John Paxton u. ID. While they
are separated there Is friction, for the reason that
both departments are the same. Unite them, and
this disappears. SO with the missions Tor the
freedmen; they all should go together.
A recess was taken, followed by an afternoon
session. at which the debate on consolidation was
continued until the adjournment.

The American Unitarian Association
Status Of Rev. w. j. Potter, Of New
Bedford.

BOSTON, MASS, May 26 1874.
At the meeting Of the American Unitarian Asso-
citation to-day there was q long debate on the
status Of Rev. ". J. Potter, OF New Bedford whose
name had been dropped from the rolls on account
OF his assertion that though Unitarian so far as
his relations to Trinitarianism were concerned he
no longer considered himself a Christian. The
controversy was carried on in o pleasant way, and
many resolutions were presented. The following.
offered by Rev. DR.. Cordner, Of Montreal, was
finally adopted:-
Inasmuch as the term UNITARIAN as used in
the title OF this association and In its publca-
lions, has always been held to carry distinctively
Christian meaning. our Unitarian ministers being
held and regarded by us as public teachers OF the
Christian religion and as the action or the Assist
ant Secretary, sustained by the Executive Com
mttee, in emitting from the catalogue the name
OF minister who says he Is no longer Christian,
mas been in harmony with the common usage or
the term among us
Resolved. That the said action be now and
hereby Is approved and ratified.
