sPEcfrNG TUE WHOLE TROUBLE. AND EX-
ONERATING REV. J. n. HOLMES, CONCLUDED
WITH AN ApMOyITIoN TO "CEAsE FROM An
CRY DISCUSSIONS" UNANIMOUSLY ADOPTED.
At IL O'Clock on yesterday very large
crowd had assembled at the First African
church to hear the report OF the committee
OF the council called 10 consider the trou-
bIes between this church and otheE colored
churches OF Richmond.
After devotional exercises, the report OF
the committee was read by the Chairman,
Rev. Henry Mcdonald, ID. ID.
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE.
The committee 10 whom was referred the
paper entitled Declaration and Statement
Of the First African Baptist Church, Rich
mond, Va.," beg leave to submit the follow
ing:
1t appears that the occasion Of these trOu-
bles was from an alteration between two
private members, which was seized upon
and found distorted publicity in news
paper in this city, which, as il appeared
therein. affected the reputation Of the Rev.
j. II. Holmes, the pastor Of the First African
church. There was a prompt and thorough
This. however, did not give satisfaction to
all, and among the disaffected dissension
spread, and this Il ouble began. Some Of
these were expelled. while others. without
letter or permission, withdrew from the
First church and organized, and issued call
for council TO recognize them ~ a church.
A council composed Of brethren from scvc-
raj churches met and 30 recognized them.
The Shiloh Association, to which the FiIst
African church and these churches that
recognized this body as a church belong,
reported against the conduct Of those
churches that recognized the new body.
Another council was called Of these same
churches, which. when assembled, recn-
dOlsed their former recognition OF the
church and Withdrew the hand of fellow
ship from thoaFiIst African Baptist church
This cmbOdes the main flcts OF this uu-
sremly and grieyOuS trouble, which has de-
StroyCd the peace Of The cOlOTpd churchCs Oi
Richmond, and seriously threatens thciI
future pros ospcrity. Your committee immc-
diateIy made arrangement, 10y the appoint
ment OF two OF their number, Brethren
HerndOu and LeGls, to visit and request
such members rs could be reaclfed OF that
recognizing council TO meet with the com
mitee and give full and fraternal statement,
with regard to the views under which they
had acted IN the matter. II is gratifying
TO state that ten OF the leading brethren
came, and had the fullest opportunity OF be
! ing heard, and this with The more pleasure
as an in the main manifested Il good spirit
and we believe desire the things that make
for peace. Having heard patiently the eX
hau,liye statements made by these seyera
brethren, your committee. guided by The
sole desire 10 do Justice to all parties, and il
possible to secure peace and harmony among
the churches involved in this trouble, pre-
sent the following report:

The Chicago Sandwich.

THERE has been great improvement

Chicago in the last ten years. In 1870
it was customary to encase the sand
wiches in pressed sole leather. The
leather was prepared by q process only
known to Prussian and the bread and
ham were put in by hydraulic pressure,
and the hole soldered up. About four
years ago the Prussian who had the secret
said something unkind to a pitcher of
a base ball club, and the pitcher took
up one of the sandwiches and pitched

funeral was quite largely attended,
considering that he was a man who
was retiring, and who made few &C
quaintances But the secret OF making
the soles and uppeGs Of railroad sand
witches died with him. 1t was about
this time that corrugated iron shutters
were invented, and chat material was
at once utilized to make lids of sand

One of the most hopeful sign Of
the times, says the National Jour.
nal Of Education, touching the ed.
ucation problem, is the echo Of the
Southern press to the plea of ex-
Governor Brown, OF Georgia, in the
Senate, for universal education. The
Southwestern Christian Advocote has,
in a late number, a long article on
this subject, and the Richmond
Whig devotes half.column of edit.
orial in arguing the necessity of ed
ucating both the white and black
children, as a means of securing the
greatest advantage to the South. It
closes with these forcib]e sentences;
"The North, by her common
school system, has prospered in
every department, with less natural
advantages than the South. Ger
many, by her compulsory education,
has become one Of the first nations
of the world. Let the South foster
her public schools, encourage I'M.
iversal education, aud she will reap
her reward in prosperity.

Fires ia Coal Mines.

vein near Coal Castle, Schuylkill
County. has been burning for forty five
years. \ huge fire was Kept in a CRATE
at the mouth of this mine to prevent
the water in the cutters from freezing.
One night, in 1885, the timbers of the
drift caught fire, and when discovered
the flames were beyond control, and
the mine WAS abandoned. Many efforts
have been made since to work the
mine, AS the coal was Of remarkably
good quality; but although it has been
flooded many times, the fire continues
to rage, and the intense heat makes ii
impossible for miners to labor even in
slopes which were opened some dis.
lance from the burning vein. No vege-
tation grows on the surface above this
pit Of fire, and it is dangerous to walk
across it, as many places have caved
in, and there seems to be but a thin
shell Of earth over it. Near Mauch
Chunk there is Summit Hill Niue.
which has been burning for about 25
years, and vast sums of money have
been expended in fruitless efforts to
eXtingulsh the flames. - Scientific

comes slowly. In the first month the
infant pays no attention to the swiftest
approach of the persons hand to its
face. and in the third year it will show
Ignorance of size and no appreciation
of distance. The Professor set down
in writing every sound uttered by a
child during its first two years, and
which could be SO represented. At
first only vowels are heard, but even in
the first five weeks these sounds are SO
diversified as to express different feel
ings. Thus, the Professor says, the
periodically broken cry, with knit eyes,
denotes hunger; the continuous whine,
cold; and the high, penetrating tone,
pain. The consonant m was heard in
the seventh week, and in the seventh
month b, d, n, v and rarely g, h and X
were distinguished. Imperfect imita-
tions of sound were heard in the sixth
month, and at this time voices began to
be distinguished by the child. Great
progress is made in the limitations of
sounds after the third half-year, and
the powers of articulation become we'll
developed by the fourth half-year.-M
