but harmonizing on dOctrinial
points. The NJ. Il. Church numbers

The COlored M. +. Church has now

OF its preachers and one OF Its bish-

Of Caucasian blood, and very many
Of them are men Of talent and rare

SOUTH CAROLINA.
The state Debt-A Plan Agreed
Upon For Its settlement. su

The public Indebtedness of South
Carolina has been under discussion
in the Legislature for the past ten
days. The Democrats were divided
upon the report of the bond com
mission, which rejected large
amount of bonds funded under the
consolidation act of 1873. Finally a
committee of conference was APP
pointed and a basis was accepted and
will become a matter for the action
of the Legislature next week. t.
The agreement is as follows;
1. To levy a tax sufficient TO meet
the interest on the entire debt adj
iusted under the consolidation act.
2. To constitute a special court oi
three Circuit Judges, before whom
the bonds declared invalid by the
commission shall be taken upon test
cases, with the right of appeal to the
Supreme Courts of State and United
States.
3. That the matured interests on
all bonds declared valid by the COM
mission shall be paid out Of the
money I'm the Treasury, and the i'm
terest for the current year on such
bonds shall be paid out Of moneys
collected herereafter.
4. That as soon as a final adjudi-
cation is reached on the bonds de-
clared invalid by the Commissioner,
the funds levied for the interest
shall be paid out on the entire
amount Of the bonds declared valid
obligations Of the State.
5. That the floating debt of the
State, including bills Of the Bank of
the State, be settled at so cents on
the dollar, payable in coupon bonds
bearing per cent. interest.

The work of the republican lead
ers i'm Feance is being skillfully per-
formed. The republican majority
which, i'm the teeth Of unheard Of OPP
position, was secured I'm the Chamber
of Deputies evinced q thorOughness
of organization that might have
tempted less able men to rash
measures. On the contrary we have
seen them accept a Ministry which,
while emphasizing their victory at
the polls, Is conspicuous for is mod
Grafton. IL was absolutely necessary
that the Marshal President should
be sternly held To the point OF sub
mission, yet because Of the heterO-
geneOus conservative majority in
the Senate il was necessary To pro-
ceed cautiously. One thing, how
ever, was indispensible-namely,
that guarantees should be obtained
against return on the part Of Mae
MahOn to the step of the 10th of
May, 1877, when the Marshal cOOlly
overthrew the Simon Ministry and
flung himself into the arms Of the
reactiOnaries, headed by the Duke
de BrOglie, and, after dissolVing the
Assembly, allowed the Premier to
carry on, in his name, such a tyran-
nical campaign. Three bills have
accordingly passed the lower
Chamber and are now before the
Senate, one Of which fOrbids the
proclamation of a state Of siege
without the sanction Of the Cham
bers, another which fofbids the
President spending money without
Parliamentary authority when the
Chambers are not in session, and
one which forbids magisterial inter
ference with the sale of newspaper
A fourth bill, which has also passed
the Chambers Of Deputies, quashes
all convictions for press offences
committed during the campaign OF
last fall.
How to get these through the
Senate has been the difficult problem
OF the Ministry. The conservative
majority was slim and fiuctuating,
but the cOnstitutiOnalists, mainly
composed Of Orleanists, about thirty
strong and headed by Duke d'Au-
ditfret Pasquier, held the key Of the
position. They have as conse-
quence, been ceaselessly beseiged by
both parties. The Ministry have, IL
would seem, won, for the disruption
