DIR. Gilbert Resigned.

Last winter the Rev. DR.. Gilbert. pas tor Of
Meridian street M. Z. Church, was elected su-
perintendsnt Of the department of instruction Of
the International Sunday-schoo Association.
The design of his election was to institute some
new Measures for the more thorough prepare
ton Of Sunday-school teachers The purpose
was to organize o movement that should reach
al the States and Territories OF the
United States and the provinces Of
Canada, and eventually the Protestant nations
OF Europe. It was, moreover, to be . general
work, ~enlisting all denominations. 1t now ap-
pears that what some feared at the outset has
actually TRANSFERRED. In laying plans for SO
great an enterprise it was found difficult to
adapt it to the views of the many parties con-
cerned. Months have elapsed in an earnest Of
fort to remove these difficulties, and tho time
for beginning the work has been postponed
again and again in hope Of an harmonious adj
justment. The last date fixed was Oct. !,
but at q recent meeting the COMMITTEES. not hav-
lug overcome all obstacles, found further delay
necessary. Accordingly. DR.. Gilbert has de-
clined the ONCE, and will continue his labors in
tho pastorate.

Central Baptist Association.

The Central Baptist Association will begin its
first semi annual meeting at the North Baptist
Church, on Broadway, tomorrow morning, at 10
o'clock, and will continue its sessions until
Wednesday night or Thursday morning. Rev.
DR.. Ogle, of Franklin, will deliver the regular
address before the association. and the re-
maindsr OF the time will be devoted to routine
business connected with permanent orgauiza-
tion. as the association is as yet in its infancy.
It is an outgrow With Of the old association, the
trouble having arisen some months ago over the
federation, on the part of a church at Acton, OF
a divorce on other than legal grounds, but
claimed to be legitimate by the pastor.
Numerous attempts were made at the time to
rectify the matter, but they al failed. and since
IL was not deemed advisable to expel the offend
ing church. IL was decided in q private confer
ence Of Baptist ministers that the desired result
would be brought about by the formation of o
new association. Accordingly all the churches
identified with the old organization withdrew
with the exception Of the one at Acton and one
or two others that upheld its action, and the
Central Association was temporarily formed.
The meeting that is to begin tomorrow is for
the purpose of drawing up a permanent consti-
tuition and attending to other details Of organi-
cation.
