Ennis, July 27.-The Baptist general as
ISOLATION of Texas adjourned late yesterday,
after prosperous and harmonious session OF
six days. Centuries will point back to this
meeting as one of the grandest and most
successful Baptist gatherings that has ever
marked the history of the United States. 1t
was characterized by spirit of harmony,
unity and zeal, unparalleled in the annals of
this government. The presence of very dis
tiugushed gentlemen from Missouri, Illinois,
and elsewhere, added TO the dignity of this
important body. Rev. R. @. Buckner,
editor of the Texas Baptist, was elected
president. This distinguished gentleman
rendered his resignation, earnestly urging
that some other person be elected to this i'm
portant position; but second vote of the
association reaffirmed the first, and Rev. Mr..
Buckner accepted the position. Dr.. W. ID.
Lair, Rev. j. L. White and Rev. Josiah
Leake were elected vice.presidents; Rev. s.
j. Anderson secretary.
The meeting throughout was characterized
with great interest DR.. r. @. BurlesoD, who
had been president of the body for nine con-
secutive years, requested at the beginning
that his name be Withdrawn entirely from the
body as presiding officer. The following
items of interest will show the i'm
portance of this great body: During the year
just closed, this association has employed for
the most of the time nine missionaries !;
twenty missionary stations have been regu
larly filled; sermons and other religious ex.
hortations delivered 2,754; prayer meetings
organized, 81; conversions in connection
with the labors Of missionaries, 1866 miles
Travelled, 1887; religious visits, 4,9l0; cash
collected and discussed during the year just
ended, Sl,4S9 So; cash and pledges taken up
during the meeting at Ennis, and including
the cash collected the year just ended, So
052 SO. There were "A district
associations and 147 churches represented by
letters and messengers. The aggregate mem-
bership of the body at this sitting for the LAT
churches and "a district associations would
have been sci it ali of the delegates had
been present, but some Of the delegation did
not get to the meeting of the body. The
association agreed to aid in sending two mis-.
sionaries to foreign lands, ono to Brazil and
one to China They have ALREADY appointed
five missionaries to labor in Texas and sew
eral others are to be sent out soon for the
coming year. Never before was there man
ifested q greater missionary spirit and reli-
gious zeal than was manifested at this meet
ing. One important object of one division of
this association is TO build an orphans home
which is coon to be located somewhere in
north Texas. Considerable money has al.
ready been collected for this purpose.
