COME BEFORE THE
ASSEMBLY,
PROCEEDINGS IN THE ASSEM-
BLY, VEST ERDAY.
THE ASSEMBLY ENGAGED ON
THE WILSON CASE.

ST.. LOUIS, May 25-Noon-In the
Southern Presbyterian General AS
Sc mbly yesterday almost the entire
session was taken up in the discussion
of what is known as the Wilson case,
it being a complaint of J. J. Cook and
others to the Louisville Presbytery
regarding Rev. S. r. Wilson and his
congregation, of the First Presbyterian
Church of Louisville. Without def
mite action the Assembly adjourned
until tomorrow, when the case will
be taken up next to the question in
volving the relations between the
Northern and Southern Churches. -
This is the most important case before
the Assembly.
Presbyterian General Assembly to-day,
the Special Committee to whom was
referred the matter of friendly rela-
tions between the North and South
Churches, reported that while they
greatly regrett d that the conference at
Baltimore last January was unsuc-
cessful in bringing the two great
bodies together i'll friendly and cor
dial relations, they heartily endorsed
the posi- ion of their committee as the
only one they could have taken under
the circumstances.
CLEVELAND. May 25.-Night-In
the Presbyterian General Assembly all
unsuccessful effort was made to have
the action of the Assembly on the re-
port of the Conference Committee
with the Presbyterian Church South
reconsidered
ST. LOUIS, May 26.-Noon. Most of
the time of the Presbyterian Assembly
was taken up yesterday i'll listening to
the reading of records in the Wilson
case. This was finally finished, and
to-day Rev. Stuart Robinson will
make the argument for the Louisville
Presbytery ; Rev. J. J. Cooke for the
complainant.

riages making three or more round
trips per day will forthwith be estab-
lished, and passengers can be carried
at 30 cents each with profit to the pro-
prietors.
Believing that in the completion of
this turnpike ali of our people are in
terested, that it will be of incalculable
benefit to Wilmington as a city, and
that the stock of the Company, which
Is necessarily limited in amount, will
certainly be very profitable, simply as
a money investment, we solicit from
each and every one of our fellow
citizens subscriptions to the capital
stock of this Company, that this great
Improvement SO permanent in it's
character, and costing so little to per-
petuate it in good condition, shall be
promptly constructed.

1st. The equality of all men before
the law, equal justice to all and spe-
clai favOrs to none.

ty.

Practice versus Theory

The theory of disease accepted by
PHYSICIANS is, that symptoms are mere
Iy sympathetic Indications of its ex-
istence, and have in most instances
little or nothing to do with fixing its
locality. Their practice, however, is
Numerically opposed to their theory,
for they administer medicines which
affect symptoms only. The remarks
BILE cures of dyspepsia, sick headache,
con -tipation, rheumatism, general de

have been accomplished by remedies
which addressed themselves merely
to the removal Of any one of the mani
fold and complicated symptoms to
which those maladies gives rise -

upon the stomach and tributary organs.

We have received from the Office OF

containing "Ex-Gov. Vance's Sketches
OF North Carolina, together with an
Elegiac and Other Poems, by James

every North Carolinian should pos
sess, as the sketches of our State his
tory are not only exceedingly in terest-
ing, but very valuable for preserva-
ton. The poems by Mr.. Hope, gen.
tleman who ranks in the foremost lis
of Southern writer's, give an additional
inter est to the volume.
