After devotional exercises and routine busi-

duccd the following resolutions, which were
referred to committee:
ReS0lred. That the continuous, persistent,
and repeated efforts of the Plpists through
out the country, under the tutclage, direc.
ton, and advice Of the plpa hierarchy, to
obtain control OF the school funds in the
several States Of the Union, or to have por-
ton of said school funds diverted from the
legal and legitimate uses to which said funds
are pledged in order to devote tbe money to
the support of the papistical schools, de-
mand from all Protestant Christians OF
every denomination and every citizen of
the United States opposed to union of
Church and State resolute, determined, and
combined effort, and unceasinS TatchtulneSS,
to prevent the success Of TIE inSIdiouS effort
now keing made in all sections Of the country
by the adherents to PapaCy 10 secure control
of the school money and 1t is hereby recon-
mended by the General Assembly OF the
Presbyterian Church that all attempts to sub.
vert our school funds or divert any portion
of the various school funds in any Of the
States in the Union TO or for the use OF any
Church or sect shall be resisted and prevent
cd by all legal aGd honorable means.
Resotued, That the outcry of the p,pat
hierarchy against what they call our "sod-
less schools" can with far more justice and
greater propricsy be applied to the scho OILS
they have instituted. In the common schools
Of our country the pure word Of God is
read without comment, " bile i'll the papistt-
cal schools the Bible is excluded, and dogmas
and traditions of men are substituted for the

taxes and the city treasurer, which took the
same course.
The special committee to whom was re-
ferred the communication of the Mayor
reported "that they asked a conference of
the Police Commissioners, at which all
of the members who were in the city
were present, and after consultation with
them they are of the opinion that there
was no intentional discourteSy by either
party in failing TO communicate to the City
Council the appointment OF an overseer of
the chain-gang to the first meeting Of that
body subsequent to the appointment. 1t
appears that there was no definite under.
standing between the Commissioners and
the Mayor as to whose duty it was. Ii is
the opinion Of the committee that it is the
duty Of the Mayor to report any and all ac'
tions of the Police Commissioners to the
Council ut the first meeting subsequent to
its action" They also recommend that the
late overseers of the cbain-gang be paid for
their services. They also recommend the
rejection of all claims for services by special
policemen or patrolmeu unless the Council
is notified of said appointments, as the char.
ter provides. Adopted.
The Committee on Cemeteries recommend
that the Committee on Streets be authorized
to open and grade Maury street from the Pc
tersburg turnpike to the cemetery, as the
owner Of portion Of the land through
which the present road leads has determines
to enclose his ground. Adopted.
A communication was received from the
commissioner Of the revenue and referred TO
the Finance Committee. in which he says
that when be was elected, in 1873, real estate
was worth more than it s to day, and that at
that time he was instructed by the chairman
of the Finance Committee to assess it at its
true value. In his judgment be did so. He
recommends that the present assessment be
reduced or commission appointed to re-
assess the real estate in the city.
