money with which to fly, forged the
name Of a prominent business man to

ton. Reed has been spoken OF for
speaker, but Mckinley is already being
urged for the position, aud will probably
get i, if 6sht is made for him. Reed
is an excellent leader on he floor, but he
is arbitrary in his methods aud has made
enemies among republicans WHO are re.
elected. Hc is said to have little knowl.
edge of parliamentary law, and these OBJ
jectious and McK'nley's unqualified pep
ulari,y will easily defeat Reed for the
speskcrship. Regarding the c'erkship,
it seems settled tAat Edward HcPerson
will probably be elected. He has done
such good work for the election Of re
publican congress that be will probably
be elected without opposition. It's yet
too carly to speculate on the minor off,
ces. The complimentary vote Of the

General Assembly has directed an annual
collection to be taken on the first sabbath in
February for church erection.
6. In obedience to the General Assembly,
we urge Presbytery to consider the import
ance ofincreased effort in evangelistic work,
that this long-neglected aud vital part OF
our work be given its proper place in our ef-
forts and prayers.
I. The most generous response is urged
FROM all our people to the claims ofctis,tbied
ministers and families of deceased ministers.
s. We recommend that special attention
be paid by our ministers and church sessions
to the work OF colored evangelism, in the
hope that at least $4,000 may be secured for
the prosecution ofthe work, andt seek ont
and urge upon suitable colored lnen the inn
portance OF giving themselves to the great
work OF helping their race.
0. We call attention to the fact that the
General Assembly has directed the nara
tive, found in appendix OF the minutes, to be
read in all our churches.
10. In accordance with the General AS
sembly's directions, we urge that our Sab
bath-schools use our own church publica-
lions, hold preparatory weekly meetings
for the study of the work; contribute
to the benevolent schemes of the church !;
increase the study OF the shorter catechism
upon the Bible rather than the leaflets.
IL. We signify our approval of the General
Assembly's recommendation OF "a children'e

first Sabbath IN June, of each year, and the
formation of mems missionary societies un-
der the control of sessions.

The Goat Won the Fight.

Quite ludricous scene early this
morning, was combat between q
colored woman and the large goat be-
longing to Jailor RolloW's boys.
The woman was afraid to pass the
goat which was standing near the
foot of the steps leading from Spring
street up to Franklin, 50 she stOop-
cd to get a stick in order to drive
it away. While in this Bonded pos
ture, the animal reared upon his
hind feet, then with a sudden lunge
sprange forward and drove the
woman center drive thatcaused her
to straighten up and skip with alac-
rity. Only three persons saw this
fun, but the laugh that followed
would have convinced the public
that q large audience was present.
