PLYMOUTH CHURCH.
An Advisory Council to be CalIed-Th,
Church to take the OHeusiye


New YORK, Dec. 16.-The lecture room of
Plymouth church was crowded tonight at the
adjourned meeting of the church. Mr.. Beech
er and family were there, and all the notable
people of the church. Brother Edgarton was
moderator. All other business was deferred to
receive the report of the examining committee
which was read by brother Shearman. The re-
port declared that Mrs Moulton's whole letter
was based upon an assumption of the truth of
statements concerning their pastor. This as
sumption they met at the outset by reiterating
their convictions that these statements were an
enllre perversion of the truth. In the o4en.
ing the report reviewed the propositions and
statements contained in the letter at Heatn
Iehgtn, and compared them with her testimol
Wnen given ON the witness stand IN the great
trial Mrs. Moulton complained that the
church was not faithful Ito its covenant with
her because it did not labor to bring her back.
No suggestion was ever made to her when she
appeared before the church. The church has
never made any complaint that she did not ask
for trial. 1t was Mrs. M. who Complained
that she did no. have trial, and they simply
remind her that she had never asked for one.
In conclusion the committee say that if Mrs.
Moulton thought the pastor was wrong, she
might at first have laid the matter before the
proper officer; or taken letter of dismissal; or
gone on fulfilling her duty as a member, but
she chose.to absent herself and the church was
Justified in dropping her name from the rolls.
Ihey concede to her as a courtesy the calling
OF council, but not with change of base or
putting in her two additional points. The re-
port was adopted,

ter, in his letter announcing the non-payment
OF the January interest on the Tennessee
bonds, says that the public revenues as fast as

liquidation of the loan account of $255, 900 con-
year, and redeeming the outstanding treasury
warrants, which amount to $445,OO0. He
states that the inability to pay is attributed to
the postponement by the legislature of the
