eusSed

New YORK, December l7.-At the
business meeting of Plymouth Church
to night Deacon Vests letter was placed
on file, but not on the minutes. Prof.
Raymond then read and proposed the
adoption of letter of dismissal tor Mrs.
Moulton. The letter says they recon-
mend an advisory council of the
churches for January llth to consider
whether Plymouth Church, in its rules
for the maintenance of discipline has gone
beyond the rules of the Church OF Christ
and forfeited the confidence of the Con-
gregatlonalist Churches, and 10 consider
rule 7, dropping any member, with
or without notice, rs deemed just by n
two-thirds vote of the church, on recon-
mendation Of the examining committee,
or application of members or otherwise.
Third-That Il member so dropped is
not under any implied censure, and
whether there is anything inconsistent
with the word of God or Christian justice
in that rule.
Fourth-W Whether is is contrary to the
law of God to allow any mode Of termi.

THX latest horror which we are called
npon to record Is the burning Of a
Catholic church at South Holyoke, Mass.
and the death BY burning Of over seventy
lrrsons. The exercises had nearly closed,
and vcsper service was being sung,
when the draperies on the altar caught
fire from a candle, and the wall being
lpw and the flames streaming up, the
building was set on fire The audience
numbered about 700 people In the
body of the church the people ESCAPED,
but on the stairway leading into the gal
lry human beings were packed in a
sien=e masa, struggling to reach the floor
As the flames rushed toward them, many
ieape1 70 the floor beneath. and were
trarapled to death. Thus is the country
furnished with another sad instance Of
the bad results of binding public edifces
Nth insufficient means Of cgress.

that, instead Of losing anything by the
wreck Of the Schiller, the owners of
that vessel profted by the disaster to
The extent Of S375, 600 The story,
which We must accept as true in the alb

which the owners would have received
Tor her had she been delivered in safety
At Hamburg. But she wss insured for
her full Lloyd's value, SS00,000, and
by striking on the Ratarriere ledge, she
oatitled her owners to that sum, which
we have no doubt they will accept with
ont ostentatiously calling public alton

While this circumstance does not
Justify us in accusing the owners of the
Schiller OF conniving at her destruction
il explains the fatal earlessness with
