State Sunday School Convention.

The Fourth Annual Session of this
body assembled in jackson, at the Pres
byteran Church yesterday morning at
10 o'clock. The attendance is very
large bur the Credential Committee
not having reported before going
TO press, we are unable to state the
number of Sunday Schools or counties
represented. The house was packed
with most intelligent audience, COM
posed of ladies and gentlemen from all
parts of the State, some from other
States, and many of our own eomm1ni-
ty.
The President Of the Convention
Hon. II. L. Iarnagin, being unavolda-
bly, absent, w. q. Paxton, Esq, one of
the Vice Presidents, was requested to
preside. After song, and prayer by
Rev. DR. sullivan, of Starkville, Gen.
A. z. Stewart, Chancellor of the Uni
versitv. conducted Praise and Promise
Service. This was entered into very
heartily by all present, and the fervent
and terse expressions of praise that fol-
lowed the Scripture reading and sing
ing, by delegates in different parts of
the house, ho spoke as the Spirit
seemed to move them, appeared to-
electrify all present with feeling in uni
son with the occasion. The excellent
choir then followed with another song,
the large assembly uniting. and then |
Rev. DIR. Hunter led in prayer for the
presence of the Holy Spirit. An ad-
dress of welcome was then made by Mr..
j. L. Power, and responded to by Mr.. |
S. NJ Shelton.
After the appointment of Committees,
it was deemed best to take recess
until P. NJ, so as to give delegates to
the Prohibition Convention an opportu-
nifty to attend same in the afternoon.
A still larger audience assembled at
night After devotional exercises, re-
ports were made by Messrs. j. L. Cooper,
F. w. Merrin, J. B. Streater and L. F.
Brown, delegates to the International
Convention recently held in Ontario
after which Rev. w. B. Jacobs, of
Chicago, delivered an address ON the
Sunday School work generally. His
address was worthy of the profound
it received, and abouuded in
good points that will no doubt be utili- J
zed by many of his hearers.
The Convention re-assembled at an
early hoRr this morning, and viii close
is labors te-uight. The programme for {
today Is very interesting. Ii

Mr.. Money and the Star-Route Bust
ness.

In some recent articles concerning the
star-rOute Investigations the Herald severely
criticised Congressman Money, of Missis-
-ippi, and ,as we now have reason TO believe
did him more or less injustice. The irst OIL
these criticisms was printed two months
ago, when the revelations became public
and when the exact condition of things at
Washington was not so well known to the
government or newspapers as it is now. A
full examination of the case leads to the be-
lief that what wrote at that time placed
him in false position before the country.
In fact there appears to have been no ground
whatever for supposIng that Mr. Money was
connected with the now famous star-route
frauds. The policy of the Herald is not To
wrong anyone Intentionally, and whenever
unfortunately it does so To make all the rep
aratiOn in It's power as soon as possible. Mr..
Money is Representative in Congress, but
whenever the Herald wrongfully Injuries in
any aoay the humbLest member of the commu-
mtg It a0A be found as re1dy to undo its tc0rk
toDard him as t0t0ard the most eleratsd IL, sta
TOM. Y Herald.
This article is satisfactory as to Mr..
Money individually, but is rather hard
on Congressman generally.
