RETURNED. Rev. DR.. j. j. Bullock, Of
this city, has returned from Nashville. Tenn.,
whittier be went as delegate from the Pres
bytery of Chesapeake to the General Assembly
of the Southern Presbyterian Church. 10
bis remarks at the prayer meeting 10 the
Union Presbyterian Church. last night, Dr..
Bullock spoke Of the General Assembly in
the highest terms. and said that the body
was unanimous in regard to the doctrines
of grace held by the Church, and opposed
to the use Of any means, other than the pre-
sentatiou of the truth 10 it's simpioi,y and purity.
for the extension of Christ's Kingdom. He
also said the reports submitted were OF the
most encouraging character, showing bright
prospect ahead. There was not a sentiment
uttered, he said, that be could not respond to
with hearty amen. A private letter received
in this CITY from Nashville says that Chesa
peske PresbytelY, represented by DR.. Bullock,
occupied placs1econd to none in the General
Assembly, and the people Of Nashville have
formed very high opinion Of the Doctor.
