PSALM CXLLX.
HETRIcAILY TRANSLATED FROM THE HEBREW BIZ
REV. JAMES X. GUTHEIM

Hallelujah.
4. Sing to the Lord an anthem new and sweet,
Let pious throngs His praise and glory sing;
a. Let In their Maker Israel rejoice,
g. Let them in dance extol His holy name,
With timbrel and with harp His praise pro-
claim.
1. For in His people God will e'er delight,
win ornament the meek with hefp and might
3. The pious will with glory be elate,
And In their couch their JOY vociferate.
&C. Their throat is full with Gods exalted praise
A two-edged sword within their hands they
raise,
z. To paw to heathers retribution just,
And chastise nations groveling IN the dust;
IS. TO bind their Kings with chains in goddess
lands, -,
Their mobiles and their chiefs with iron bands;
.. To make them feel the Judgment written
down:
For all His saints an ornamental crown.
Ha lelujah.

SOUTHERN PRESBYTERIAN GENERAL ASSEM-
RLY.

ST. LOUIS, May 24.-In the Southern Pres
byterian General Assembly to-day almost the
entire session was taken up in the discussion
of what is known as the Wilson case, being
the complaints of ]. j. Cooke and others to
the Louisville Presbytery regarding the Rev.
S. r Wilson and his congregation of the First
Presbyterian Church of Louisville.
The Judicial Committee made lengthy
report on the subject, and, without discuss
ing the merits of the case, advised the As
sembly to remand it back to the Louisville
Presbytery, with an injunction to that body
to review the whole case, under certain
rulings by the General Assembly as to consti-
tutional points,
Rev. ]. r. Wilson offered resolution that
the whole case be submitted to q commits.
sion of nine members of the Assembly, with
instructions to- thoroughly investigate the
difficulty and report to the Assembly.
Another resolution was offered referring the
report back to the committee with instruc-
tions to examine the case and recommend
specific action on the part of the Assembly.
A lengthy debate ensued on these resolutions,
participated in by most Of the prominent
members of the Assembly.
Finally both resolutions were laid on the
table, and the complaint of ]. ]. Cooke against
the Louisville Presbytery was read by the
MOO6TltOls alt0k WulCu Guo AS1cmOAy III"
iourned till tomorrow, when the case will be
taken up again. Next to the question involv-
ing the relations between the Northern and
Southern Churches, this is the most impor-
tant case before the Assembly.
ST. LOUIS, May 25.-The ST. Louis Presby-
terrain General Assembly, to whom was Ie-
ferred the matter of friendly relations be-
tween the Northern and Southern Churches,
reported that while they greatly regretted
that the conference at Baltimore, last Janu-
airy, was unsuccessful in bringing two great
bodies together in friendly and cordial rela-
lions, they heartily endorsed the position OF
their committee as the only one they could
have taken under the circumstances.
CLEVELAND, May 25.-In the Presbyterian
General Assembly an unsuccessful effort was
made to have the action of the Assembly on
the report of the Conference Committee with
the Presbyterian Church South reconsidered.
