WE hope the end of the evolu-
ton struggle in tie Southern Pres
byterian Church has come at last,
after agitating the church for three
years. Mach has been written and
said on both sides. The church
through It's highest councils, main.
tanned that the theory OF evolution
held by DIR. Woodrow was contrary
to the teachings of Scripture. DIR.
Woodrow, on his part, a~sseverated
and maintained that his teachings
were not uuscriptual or heretical,
and declined to resign his chair,
after being requested to do so
by the Board of Directors, who had
been instructed by the four Syuods
which have control of the Seminary
to make the request. Wbereupon
the board unanimously adopted a
resolution declaring the chair of
Natural Science in connection with
vacant, which will re-
so until February next. But
Tor its being a church matter we
could admire the pluck aud bull
log tenacity which DIR. Woodrow
mas displayed in holding on, de-
'pite the many efforts which have
Ieen made to unseat him. 1t is
surprising how many intelligent
minister's hold with his teachings
ind bis wide spread influence will
ong be felt in the Presbyterian
Church.

sissippi river steamer, termed the
queen OF the waterways of the Mis-

with u terrible loss OF lite and prop

POinte COupee Parish, La. She
was lying at the landing taking on
board sacks OF cotton seed, when
the alarm OF fire was given and
those on board made a rush for lite,
amid the screams OF women and
children aud cries tor help. 1t
was an awful scene and so rapid
was tue burning that it is thought
that at least forty souls persisted
and many were only saved by the
most heroic efforts. The cargo

IT has ut last come 10 pass that Il
patent medicine advertisement
lakes its place in tho DEMOCRAT
STAR, viz: that of Volina Cordial.
This advertisement is inserted BY
the VOlina Drug and Chemical
Company, of Baltimore, Md, and
tue fact that it appears in this pa.
per is a recommendation, from the
fact that this company came up
like men aud met our terms, the
same we charge home patrons. We
say it is a recommendation because
il has the ring of legitimate dealing
and in that much overreaches tho
common run of patent medicine
humbugs who scour the country in
search OF cheap advertising me-
diums where they are nuturcd and
fOstered at the expense of the hon
est homo patrons. We submit to
our readers this sound argument III
favor of the merits of VOlina Cor
dial and refer them to the adver-
tisement tor further information.
