The Committee ON CanOns,

ing certain articles of the constitution, was
taken up, and all the recommendations save
the last one adopted. The last amendment
proposes that no clergyman under ''ecclesias-
tical censure" should be entitled TO seat In
tho convention.
Rev. DR.. Steele said that the vestrymen of
the St. Marks Church requested him to say
that they disapproyed Of the proposed amend
ment
Rev. Mr.. Thomas said they have been going
along very wen with the constitution as 1t is,
and he did not believe IL was important TO
change II In hot haste. III the constitution is to
be changed, II should DO done so that there
would be no opposition. For his part, he did
not know clearly what ecclesiastical censure
means. He did not know whom the charge re-
ferred TO would affect, and did not care TO In
quire but he opposed II on general principles
Dr. Kirkus hoped the question Of changing
the article in the constitution would be allowed
10 go over. He did not believe that 1t would DO
allowed 10 go over. He did not believe that 1t
was necessary 70 take a vote on that question
at this time. He said the amendment proposed
had not received that considered to which IL
was entitled. He agreed with tho preceding
speaker that he did not fully understand the
term, Ecclesiastical censure."
Dean Leryin, the Chairman OF the Com
mittee on Canons, defended the action OF the
committee.
DR.. Paret opposed the amendment In Wig
oIous and convincing speech.
DR.. Bacon favored the amendment, and said
that he wanted yea and nay vote on II.
The venerable DR.. cnristian,i in offering the
adoption OF the amendment, said he was.nO
ritualiet, never was, aud never would be. He
abhorred everything that has Romanism
In It, He believed II 10 be Satans master-
piece. He would mover support a measure
that is calculated 10 destroy innocent men
and he regarded the proposed amendment as
a most eacrilegious act, and II was an engine
OF mischief which would certainly do meal
culahle harm. He commented I'm eeyere
terms upon the Law Church, ana referred to
that party as the old puritan's party under
another name. "The pages OF its history" he
said, "are red with the blood of persecution.'

patch: Authentic news received at
headquarters here confirms the re-
port that General Crook has effectu-
ally stopped the Indian outbreak
that at one time seemed inevitable
at San Carlos. The report of the
grand jury at Tucson shows the in
cessant and labOrious work which
has been performed by Gen
eral Crook since he assumed
command in Arizona. He has
been constantly travelling from one
point to another, holding conference
with different Indian tribes. He
first discovered that frauds were
being practiced at San Carlos, and
that discomfort was caused amongst
the different bands on that account
and through his action checked what
promised, upon his arrival at the
reservation to be another long and
bloody war. Reports received at
the military headquarters here con.
firm the entire report of the United
States grand Jury.
