The ANDovER PROFESSIONALISM
dover, Mass, is the seat of the ancient
Congregational theological seminary,
which was long the bulwark of ortho-
doxy in New England. But of late
years it has been penetl ated by cad
vanced thought" and the old and able
Btbtiotheca Sdcra had to be removed to
Oberlin, Ohio and new theological
monthly, the Andover ReUtew, is issued
by the professors of Andover. 1t is
said that proceedings are to be insti-
tuted against these professors on the
ground that their teachings violate the
charter Of the institution. The Con-
gregdtionalist, of Boston, says on the
subject:
"In' regard to the current report
that charges against certain Andover
professors have been made to the Board
OF Visitors of that Seminary, the facts
are these A complaint has been lodged
with this Board to the effect that Pro
fessors Smyth, Tucker, Harris, Hincks,
band Churchill, the editors of the An
doUer RevieU, have been and are advo-
eating through its columns, and else
where, theology which, in important
particulars, radically contradicts that
which their avowed acceptance of the
creed of the Institution requires them
to teach. The Board of Visitors has
entire power in the matter. But there
may be an appeal from the decision of
the Board to the Supreme Court on
alleged grounds of error in procedure,
although if the decision were reversed
the matter merely would go back to
the Board for another consideration.
In the present case the Board of Visi-
tors has received the complaint and
notified the professors to appear at
preliminary hearing on October 25th;
and the latter have denied the power
of the Visitors to entertain such com
plant, but will probably be represented
at the hearing. The complainants are
number of well known graduates of
the Seminary, including one of it's pre-
sent trustees. We may add that this
complaint is not in any sense an out
growth of the discussion at Des Mones
last week, as some are alleging, but
has been in the hands of the Visitors
for some weeks

MR.. MOODY, in one of his latest adj

THERE are great contrasts in Eng
land in the condition of the clergy of
the Established Church. The bishops
live in palaces, and some of the clergy
are journalists and enjoy rich lvings.
On the other hand there are MANY
poor curates who hardly have the ne
cessaries of life. A society exists to
aid these needy clergymen, and one of
the main charities of the association is
to supply them with old clothes. The
following advertisement appears in
recent issue of THE Guardian

Here are three late European items,
which serve to illustrate our remark:

IT IS a well established fact, says the
Herald and Presbyter, that those church
es which take the most interest in the
great work Of Foreign Missions and
contribute most generously to this
cause, are themselves greatly blessed
and prospered Indeed, evangelstic
effort at home and abroad is a mark of
the true church, and without it there
is first stagnation and shortly death.
We have striking testimony on this
point in late issue of a Baptist paper,
which says:
The Juniata Association, the Red.
stone Association and the Baltimore
Association were once large and -four.

under the combined influence of human
selfishness and of a one sided and ex-

adopted anti mission sentiments. They
denounced the folly and presumption

death of them"

THE TOICE OF THE CHURCH.


The Synod of South Carolina met at
Cheraw, S. c., October Goth. Early in
the sessions of the body DR.. Girardeau
offered a resolution (the proceedings
are given at length elsewhere) request
ing DR.. Woodrow to resign. This re,
solution was referred to committee
which promptly reported it back to
the Synod with its approval The
Synod then adopted the resolution by
a vote of II to AZ, and communicated
at once by telegraph their action to
DIR. Woodrow, who sent back, in reply.
telegram respectfully declining" to
comply with Synod's request. The
Synod thereupon adopted resolution
by vote of rs to AZ, ordering the
Board of Directors, the other Synods
concurring, to request DR.. Woodrow
again to resign, and if he declined, to
take steps at once to remove him.
The deliverance of the General AS
sembly touching the evolution of mans
body was approved by a vote of 81 to
49. With regard to the Assembly's
recommendation of the dismissal of Dr.
Woodrow, the Synod declared that
whilst the Synod regarded with due
respect the voice of the Assembly, its
action upon the case of Dr. Woodrow
was solely upon its merits and without
reference to the Assembly's action
thereon.
In consequence of the resignation of
one of the directors Of the seminary,
and the expiration of the terms of two
others, changes were made in the direc.
tory, which leave the Board as now
constituted 9 to 4 against Dr. Wood
row.
The Synods of Alabama, Georgia,
and South Georgia and Florida (the
other three Synods controlling the
Seminary meet, respectively, on the
9th, 10th, and the 24th of November.
The action of the Synod of South Car
DINA leaves little doubt, we suppose, as
to what their course will be, as Dr.
Woodrow's principal support is in the
Synod of South Carolina.
The Presbytery of Mississippi, at its
late meeting, approved of the action of
the Assembly on evolution and with
regard to DR.. Woodrow and Colum bia
Seminary.
The Presbytery of North Alabama,
in session at CORTLAND, October 7th
passed resolution to the same purport
The Presbytery of East Hanover,
in session at Norfolk, Va, last week
passed resolution approving the &C
ton of the Assembly with regard to
evolution and>the relations of the AS

met at Columbus, Ark, on the 18th
