At the second of the Universslist meet
ings, last evening, the sermon was preached
by Rev. Mr. Little of Brunswick. The sub
ject was: IF Universalism be True Why
Preach III" The text of the speaker was ::
go We into all the world and preach the
gospel to every creature" Mark xvi 10.
The reasons given by the speaker for the
preaching of Universalism were given under
the following headings: l. Ii should be
preached because it is part of the gospel,
and therefore il. included in the command by
the Savior to preach the gospel. .. Be
cause it will make men free. 8. Because it
is glad tidings 4. Because it strengthens
moral character. 5. Because it saves from
sin. 6. Because it leads to broad system
of education 4. 1t saves and redeems the
world. s. The world demands it. These
points were illustrated with much power.

The average woman has pluck enough; the
trouble 10 che seldom has an opportunity to
show It. This was not the case, however,
with Mrs. Getchell of Read6eld for she seized
right on to the first chance that was present
ed and did up job that would have been
credible to the boldest man that runs. She
came down to the city the other day with
team, purchased some articles at . store on
Water street, loaded them in her wagon and
started for the east side Of the river. II
SCENE that while on the way bundle was
accidentally lost out, which however, she
did not discover till her arrival at the store
where che intended to make more purchases.
After thorough examination it became EVIL
dent that the bundle was gone. She at once
started back, making inquiry of every one she
met As to their knowledge Of its whereabouts
Finally she was told BY person that 1t had
been picked up BY fellow in team who had
gone oil in the direction of Pettingilrs Cor
ner. Our heroine was not at all discouraged
BY receiving such intelligence, for she had
made start and was bound to carry II
through She accordingly went back. COL
into her team, applied the brush to her steed
and took on after the fellow, who oy
this time had got some distance ahead
1t was . hard chase, but it soor
became apparent that the woman ha'
the best of it. She soon came within range
and hourishing a revolver in the air, demand
ed her bundle. II have not got your bun

my bundle or will blow the top Of your hea'
off," says the lady bringing the revolver dow
on alevel with the fellows Uranium. This wa
sufficient. He saw that it was no use and thres
the package out side of the road. exclaim'n

revision. Thus at Matt. xvii: "a, we are
now made to read (and to read with ex-
actness) Doth not your master pay the
hdtf-Shekel? ?" Then too it should be "the
Sheket' at verse 81 instead of L" a piece of
money" The slater or shekel was Just
the amount of the tax for the two persons.
The word passover" has been inserted
in place of Easter" at Acts xii: 4. King
James's Bible had struck out the word
Easter" every where else from the ear
ier versions, and it can only be attrib-
uted to inadvertence that it was suffered
to remain in this one instance. Much
has been written about the retention by
the revisers of the term Hades" as de-
scriptive of the invisible world or state
of the dead and its substitution in that
sense for the word hell" which, accord
ing to modern usage, answers to the term
Gshenma in the original or the place of
future suffering. The mistake of the Au-
thorized Version at Matt. xiii "a, of
translating "strain at instead of strain
out, " is animadverted upon by the learned
author of the Companion, and rightly as
cribed to the printer. Dr. Roberts says,
"in some way or other, at instead OF ont
found place in the verse" He does
not state, however, (what is the fact) that
the erratum was made during the Com
monwealth. By the bye, the number OF
typographical errors in the first edition
of the Authorized Version, that of 1911
was large; but subsequent care has sue

moving these blemishes

The fact that Southern Presbyterian His

Resolved, That this Presbvterv has heard
with qualification of the organization of the
Southern Presbyterian Historical Society-that
this Society be commended to the ministers and
churches of our Presbytery-and that this Pres
oyteFy will appoint corresponding member of
said Society
!, The Rev. W: P. Jacobs was appointed under
this resolution the corresponding member.
The subject of Fraternal Relations" came

decidedly in favor of "Fraternal Relations"
The following resolution was adopted, viz:
ReSotOed, That in the matter of fraternal re-
latlons this Presbytery desires to say, that
while we are opposed to organic union with the
Northern General Assembly, yet we heartily
approve of the establishment Of fraternal rela-
TONS with that body by the last General Assem-
bly,, believing that the Lord has called his
churches to peace. AT the same time this Presby-
terry earnestly deprecates any further discussion
OF a subject which seems fraught with danger

are fit subjects for their cruel and unist as
PERSONS. Reproaches against ourselves we
might submit to but we cannot and we ought
not express satisfaction when our ever to be
lamented and honored dead have any stigma
affixed to their most precious and sacred memory.
Now, we do not mean by this to say that we
believe the Northern Assembly, In the midst of
the prevailing excitement, fully understood the
language OF the Herrick Johnson resolution
which plainly reaffirms their old loyalty and
rebellion" deliverances against us, but only that
by the passage Of the resolution in question they
leave US in uncertainty as 10 their meaning;
and that, therefore, we consider it to be due
both to themselves and to us, that they should
distinctly express themselves before we can en-
ter further into relation with them.
Still more. we are free to declare that we are
satisfied, from all the information we have been
able to procure touching the proceedings at
Springfield. as at Atlanta, that there did not
prevail in either body perfectly clear under
standing of the real effect of the steps they were
taking, and that 1t is proper and right that OPP
portunity be given and taken, before any con.
clusion of this matter, to have it distinctly I'M
derstood what is really the basis of our future
intercourse.
1t is the opinion of all whose names here ap.
pear, that our Presbyterie at their Fall meet
lngs, exercising the clear constitutional right to
review the proce edings of their Commissioners
should declare their dissatisfaction with the
basis OF fraternal relations adopted at Atlanta,
and should overture the Lexington Assembly
to instruct the delegates appointed at Atlanta
TO decline entering the Northern Assembly until
it shall comply with the Concurrent Resolution
retracting mutually all offensive imputations.
The subscribers lay no claim to the slightest
authority to direct what proceedings ought to
be taken by our Church in this case. But we
do claim the right to express freely our opinions
on this subject, and to invite all who think with
GnEto1D hot ,,tfa hai, Al
and the right, which is always the proper and
the safe.
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1882-09-06

by express constitutional provision to the
next Assemblies, to hear the report of
these delegates on their return from the
bodies to which they have been sent, and
to take such action under the circum-
stances as shall seem to be for the peace,
purity, and extension of the Church.
OF course, every individual, every
Presbytery, every Synod, has right to
an opinion; and the right to speak and
publish that opinion. And it is our
opinion that we will all do well to for
bear evil speaking, to possess our souls
in peace, and to wait with patience un-
til it is officially declared whether the
basis of fraternity is mutually under
stood and satisfactory.
DIR. Hoyt's card was received after the
editorial on the same subject had been
written and was in type. DR.. Hoyt is
right, we think, in what he says about
the public sentiment of our Church. We
have now given full hearing to all sides,
and as the Presbyteries will all soon meet
we hope that the end of this discussion is
near.

Montgomery Presbytery and Fraternal
Relationa

The following is the paper on Fraternal Res.

late meeting
l. We esteem the doctrine Of the unity of the
Church, az taught by its Divine Head, and en-
forced upon all His people, one which the whole
Church OF Christ should prayerfully preserve
and visibly express.
2. We consider that it Is especially encum.
bent on those branches Of the visible Church
that, as in this particular, are so nearly akin in
doctrine, in history, and in localzation, to cul
tlvate this spirit in mutual esteem and brother.
ly love, in cooperation in the work Of Christ,
and in the exercise Of mutual forbearance and
forgiveness if need be; and that nothing save
the most clearly established principles aud con-
victions Of truth and righteousness can Justify
