forth very large congregation. After song,
Rev. D. Tice read portion of scripture, and
Rev. John Stafford engaged in prayer.
Rev. d. Morgan, as treasurer, made his re-
port from 100 charges-47 more are to be heard
from. Some of the charges took up no collec-
ton for the freedman, but put in a small sum
for conscience sake. Total this year 1910, as
against 1854 of last year. The report in the
main was an encouraging one.
DR.. Hartzell, of New Orleans, said he was
here to speak of one Of the benevolent socie-
ties of the church. He said he would give
some words concerning the South, and, by the
South, We mean the States where slavery once
existed. 1t contains about IA, 100000 of souls,
and the problem we have to solve is great
one. present it to you because believe the
whole American people concerned in it,
He reverted to the war, referring to the bravery
of the Southern people. He believed they were
wrong, but we must give them the credit of
confederacy because they believed they were
right. They were born, bred and educated in
slavery, and when 100000 of intelligent peo-
pie believed they were right, and were brave
enough to fight for their convictions, we must
respect them.
Speaking of the missionary work in the
South. the speaker said there were noinstances
where money could be better expended than in
supporting the teachers of these schools and
helping educate some young men in their study
of the ministry. This conference had done
we'll in reporting thus far $470.80. Over forty
charges wers yet to hear from, which would in
crease the amount. The speaker urged the
preachers to give the facts to the curches, and
he was sure that next year much larger
amount would be raised.
The speaker said that if any wanted TO place
anything in his hands as special Collection to
aid some worthy young man. he would receive
it. MIR. E. E. Payne said he would give S.
month for year, and laid the first payment
on the table. Others followed in small
amounts until $50in cash were laid on the ia
BILE, which with the subscription made $lO5.

Dr. Brooks said Mr.. Chaffee's reasons ought
not to be considered now, because the confer

any during the last year? If he knows that
the conference wants him to get out of the

WASHINGTON, Sept. 10, 1878.-DEAR SIR:
Your letter of the 10th inst. is received. Ihave
have been sent over the wires, you should feel
distracted and COMPOUNDED, but there is not
one word of truth in the whole story you men
ton. Nobody here has proposed to recede from
the position we have taken on the resumption
act, its feasibility and advisability.
No member of the cabinet has
proposed a change, nor has the President been
consulted, nor has anyone even thought of such
thing. The whole thing is scandalous and
outrageous fabrication. The change in the
mode of paying out silver dollars was the pre-
text, but the real object, it seems to me, was
simply desire by newspaper correspondents to
create sensation. They have falsitied and
perverted an interview had with the Republic
can editor here, but think the correction has
already been fully made will be made clear
within day or two. Go on, therefore, with
courage and hope. You may be certain there
will be letting down by the executive branch
OF the government as to resum ption on the first
day of January next. Very truly yonrs.
