LIFTING THE DEBT.
Fourteen Tn ousaud Dollars Raised

A Sunday Well Spent Mt the Metropolitan
Fourteen Thousand Dollars Raised.
Yesterday at the Metropolitan Church was de
voted to wiping out the debt, and that the effort
was successful is ateSted by the fact that $l4 900
was raised, leaving only 1000 to be lifted.
Bishop Andrews preached in the morning from
the text Have faith in God" finished discourse
full of beauty, pathos, and power. Bishop Simpson
then in a neat address reviewed the history of the
church, spoke of the seasons of light and shade,
and said that now the day of liberation had come.
The debt was $4,000 If the church here would
reduce the debt to S25 900 the other would be met
outside of the congregation The effort was then
made, and during the morning and evening ser
vice the noble sum of $4,000 was contributed.
The Metropolitan people are elated, and believe
that an era of brightness and success has come to
the church. Bishop Simpson addressed quite a
large congregation al the evening service on the
fund were: Pew ST. 81, 900; NJ G. Emery, 1000: B.

Some OF the creditors OF A. King Chandler, the
Seventh street merchant who sold out his business
short time ago. were dissatisfied with the sale of
his stock to H. B. Clafiin & Co.. of New York, and
filed bill in equity for the purpose of procuring
relief.
On Saturday the Court heard the application of
Chambers creditors for an injunction to prevent
any further sales of goods to Guinnip Day Co., to
whom Clafin g. Co. had sold the goods bought
from Chandler, and for receiver to take charge
of the stock and sell it for the benefit of Chambers
creditors. The Court refused to grant the injunc-
tion and appoint the receiver requested by these
creditors of Chandler and, in delivering his opn-
ion Judge Cox said that he was not satisfied that
the goods had been originally purchased by Chand-
Ter under circumstances so fraudulent as to enable
the creditors to now seize them again, especially
as some of the creditors had accepted in part pay
ment of these goods the money paid by Clahfn &
Co. to Chandler.
The Court further held that if the complainants
in the case, who were then applying for receiver
and injunction were in the position of creditors of
Chandler, be must follow the current of authority
and hold that creditors must first establish their
claims by judgments before attaching on the
ground Of fraud any sales made by their debtor,

DIR. DoMER DEFINES HIS POSITION.

Dr. Domer the pastor of St. Pauls English Luth-
eran Church, in making mention to his congrega-
ton yesterday morning of the proposed mass meet
ing at Lincoln Hall in the afternoon, took occa-
sion to define his own position, and among other
remarks spoke as follows:
~ am, as you all know, thoroughly opposed to
intemperance and the liquor traffic. would be
glad to see a pTohibitory movement inaugurated,
and by legal means entirely suppress the whole bad
business of rum in traffic and in use. would be glad
to see the whole question submitted to the people
in some well-framed lOcal-0ptiOn measure, whereby
the moral sentiment of the community might be
brought directly TO the solution of this trouble
some evil which much affiicts society. am
not in favor of holding mass meeting such as is
proposed, for the purpose of calling into question
the official acts of our Commissioners, and either
directly or indirectly to excite against them
the feelings of the community to hold them up for
public contempt because of some supposed delin-
quencies. l am not certain that they have been
unfaithful in the execution of the license laws of
the District, and they ought not TO be condemned
unheard nor on &c pdrte testimony. So far as l
have learned to know these neil, must regard
them as honorable gentlemen, and l prefer to
believe that they have endeavOrcd to do their duty
in the light of their apprehension of law and fact
1t is nearer the truth, as l think, to regard the
license law itself as bad rather than the execution
of the law by the present Commissioners. The
cure is not in the removal of the Commissioners,
but in the change of the law

Is young, is the pOssessor of beautiful face, and

National Theatre-sohn Mccullough.


Mr.. John Mccullough will this evening commence
| his farewell engagement at the National prior to
season at Drury Lane Theatre, London. Mr.. Nc
| Cullough is no stranger in Washington. Each
| successive engagement here has served to more
firmly establish him in the popular esteem, and
the social attentions bestowed upon him would do
honor to any man in public life. Nh. McCullOugh's
advance toward the goal of his ambition has been
rapid and to-day he occupies the first place in the
rank of tragic actors. He is progressive worker.
The secret of his improvement lies in deeper
study. more profound conception of character,
and a subtler discrimination between modes and
forms of thought. Where he moved before by
strength and earnestness of effort he now succeeds
in moving by finer methods His grand physique,
distinct and forcible elocutiOn, and agreeable
voice have always challenged admiration. Now
these have been trained to serve him i'll express
ing in innumerable ways new and harmonious
thoughts.
Mr.. McCullOughs repertoire for the first week is
as follows: Monday night and Saturday matinee,
" Richelieu;' Tuesday and Thursday, "OthellO;'
Wednesday, "Eing Lear" Friday "Virginius;"
Saturday, Richard III The dependent roles
will be intruSted to company which has been
very warmly commended by the critics of New
York and other cities one of superior excel
lence. Fred. B. Warde Z. K. Collier, John A.
