appeal case from the Police Court, where
Acting Police-Justice Crutchfeld convict
ed the accused and fixed her punishment
at thirty days Imprisonment in the city
Jail. Commonwealth's-Att Wise was
called away from the city yesterday after
noon and requested Mr. s. B. Witt to take
charge OF the case Just mentioned. Mr..
W. G. Roane, colored lawyer who had
prosecuted the case in the Police Court,
remarked to Mr.. Witt that he was proba-
bly, more familiar, with the matter than he
was, and would, II he desired it, act for
Mr. Wise. Mr.. Witt consented, and Roane
became Commonwealth's attorney pro tenn.
Mr.. r. P. Brooks, also a coored lawyer.
who defended the woman in the Police
Court, represented her again yesterday.
The evidence was duly taken, the case
argued and given TO the jury, who affirmed
the Judgment OF Justice Crutchtield. SO
Louisa will have TO go to Jail for thirty
days.

RESIGNATION OF REV. DR.. E. W. WARREN,
PASTOR OF THE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH.
On Sunday morning. after the communion,
Rev. DR.. Warren rendered his resignation
Of the pastorate Of the First Baptist church
here in order 10 accept call to the First
Baptist church in Macon, Ga.
For twelve years DR.. Warren was pastor
OF the church in Macon, from which he
went to the First church Of Atlanta. Ca,
and thence came to Richmond four years
ago. The call to Macon is not only unani-
nous and enthusiastic, but is backed by
very strong appeals from every part OF
Georgia. The Macon church is large and
efficient one. Mercer University is located
there, and the pastorate is the centre OF 4
wide influence in the State.
The resignation OF DR.. Warren will be
received with deep regret by his church
and the wide circle OF friends he has made
| in Richmond and throughout Virginia. But
he goes back to his old church and bis
| old friends, and to field OF very wide use
| fuInesS.
The resignation is to take effect imme-
dlateiy after the second Sunday in October.
| At church meeting held last night the
committee composed OF Messrs. c. Wal
than. r. w. Powers, ?. Fl. Starke, 7. {.
w llilullS, y. ID. w dihluSs u. Ls NJ Sbii ,
and r. Fl. Bosber} reported as follows:
Your committee, 10 whom was referred
the resignation OF our beloved pastor. the
Rev. L. w. Warren, d. d., in accordance
with obvious propriety, have frankly con-
ferred with him on the subject. he assures
US that his decision to dissolve his connec-
tion with our church was slowly reached,
after mature reflection, consideration OF
usefulness and duty, and the apparent
leadingS OF the LORDS hand Therefore,
while affirming sincerest affection for the
entire church, he hopes his resignation may
be accepted. as be does not conceive of anv
circumstance that would justify his reversal
OF step so deliberately taken. We are
therefore constrained to recommend to the
church the adoption of the following pre-.
ambe and resolution:
| Whereas our loved pastor has affection.
atelv but decidedly rendered his resigna.
ton, to take effect on the second LORDS day
in October next, to reassume previous
pastorate in Macon, Ca, to which he has
been urgently called; therefore be it
ResOlued, That we recognize the hand Of
good Providence in bringing Dr.. Warren
into the relation of pastor to this church.
and that we consent, on his request and
resignation, to the severance OF the relation
with the warmeSt affection for him us
Christian and minister.
The above report was adopted, and the
same committee requested to prepare suita
BILE resolutions expressive of the Church:
estimate OF DR.. Warren, the same to be pre-
sented to the Church on next Sunday morn
ing.
A committee will be appointed at once By
the Church to recommend q minister to sue
ceed DR.. Warren as pastor.
