The friends of the Rev. DR.. CARNAcHAN
held meeting at Library hall, Meadville.
last Tuesday evening, over whish William
Reynolds presided. The action of the Erie
presbytery, in deposing DR.. Carnachan,
was denounced by the speakers. They
also renOunced the name of Presbyterian
and will not appeal to the synod for q re.
vorsal of the presbytery's action in DR..
Carnachan's case. Library hall has been
rented for the deposed minister and it is
said that he will carry three -fourths of the
membership of the church and all the
piety, wealth and intelligence of tue con
grcgation. This is undoubtedly formid-
able religious strike in this day of strikes.

time friends. Mrs Lockwood says that as
no woman has ever been sent abroad to
represents the interests Of the country,
although one-half of the population con

ought to have the place.
The reason DoN CAMERON became SC
hot at Dawes refusal to let the Senate ad-
.journ over until Monday was that Cam
erOn was very anxious to get up an ex.
cursion party Of senators to Harrisburg
to have coed time. To do this it was
necessary that an adjournment should be
had until Monday. He could not invite
every one, of course, so tho invitations
| were confined to those who are generally
known in social parlance as ''good fellows
which is understood to include those who
do not confinc their liquid refreshments to
water. This may have accounted for some
of the opposition to the motion to adjourn
over which came from the Republican
side. Mr.. Dawes's stomach would bea,
nothing stronger than water, and he had
not been ono of the invited guests. Later
in the afternoon MIR. Groome suggested
privately to Don Cameron to try it again,
but he was disguised, and said they might
all go to thunder.
