UNDER GOV. PATTIsoN's LEADERSHIP

THE n. =. CnNFERFNCE WIPES OUT THE CuLoR
LINEI IS ITS CHURCHES ASD SCHOOLS.
PnIL.DELPnIA. May 2s. In the NJ. F.
General Conferences to day the Ccmmtt,e
on the State of the Church called up its re-
port for final action, and Governor Pattisos,
ofPennsy ylvsnia chairman Of the committee,
presented a report on marriage and divorce.
1t recommends that no divorces should Q
granted except ON grounds justified by the
Scriptures, aud that a commission should
be appointed to confer with the Governors
of all the States to endeayor to secure the
elactment Of uniform laws on this subject
An amendment was adopted that it is the
sense OF the Conference that divorces should
not be granted except for adultry, and any
one divorced for such reason, il he be the
guilty party, cannot be married again by
any minister Of the church. The report as
amended was adopted.
The portion OF the report Of this com
mittee which il was expected would cause
considerable debate was that referring to
the "color line" as it is called. The com
mitiee presented report declaring 1t to be
the policy Of the church that no member oi
any society within the church shall be- OK
eluded from public worship IN any edifee
Of the denomination, and that no student
shall be excluded from any school Of the
church, on account of race, color, or previ-
Gus condition Of servitude. A minority re-
port declared that, in view Of the action
already had on the question, further action
was unealled for. The minority report was
voted down. GoYerner FattiIOR made q

ONE Of the lessons OF the late specula-
tive crash in New York city has not be, n
alluded to, SO far ~ W. have seen, in
any OF the papers. II is the necessity OF
strict and frequent auditing of accounts,
with an examination of the evidences Of
properly. such MS bonds, mortgages and
deeds. II the Presidents of the Marine,
Second National, Metropolitan and
Newark Savings banks had known that
couple of competent Auditors would
come at stated times TO make u thorough
aud searching auditing of accounts, in
Guiding the seeing and handling Of every
evidence Of property, nothing is plaiuer
than that the wretched showing Which
these institutions have made would have
been well nigh impossible. Every
species Of emb, zzlements and deialca-
tions come to moneyed institutions
through the neglect of such auditing.
| Money officers ought meyer to be allowed
TO gain the impression that their simple
sto otements will be accepted by the Di-
rectors as the needed proof that every
thing is right. We do not know 10y what
right the Directors of Il bank take less
care to verify tte statements Of their
officers, in the matter of millions OF
money, than they would personally take
to verify the accuracy of bills Of their
own OF from $40 to 500.
