MORE OF THE EVOLUTION CONTROVER-
sY.-The Presbyterians have not yet set
tied the evolution controversy, and it will
come up in a new shape before the South
Carolina Synod which meets at Greenwood
this week. At the recent meeting of the
Charleston P~resbytery at Aiken, the com
mittee on minutes of the General Assem-
bly, recommended the adoption of the fol-
lowing resolution:
Presbytery hereby informs it's ministers,
ruling elders and deacons, that the General
Assembly has judicially affirmed the de-
cisions of the Synod of Georgia declaring
that the belief of = y \ James Wood
row, D. D., as to the origin of the body OF
Adam was contrary to the word Of God as
interpreted in the Standards Of the
Church - and, therefore, that this Presby-
terry regards the holding of said form OF
evolution as "contrary to the word Of God
as interpreted in the Standards of the
Church" and forbids the public c%ontending
against the decision of the Assembly.
This resolution is objected to by a good
many Presbyterians, who construe it as
a blow at the liberty of speech.
The Synod, in session at Greenwood,
adopted a resolution, by a vote Of 9G to SO.

Presbytery.

THE GALLows.-Pauline Mccoy, q ne
gro girl aged 10, was hanged at Union
Springs, Alabama, last Friday for the
murder of Annie Jordan, a f~ourteen-year-
old white child, last February. The exc
cution was private, only a few persons be-
ing admitted. The crime for which the
woman was hanged was a peculiar one.
The victim, Annie Jordan, strayed away
from her home in Montgomery, and moth
ing was heard of her until her dead body
was discovered in q plum thicket. Cir
cumstances pointed to Pauline, and she
was arrested with the dead girls clothing
on her. She was found guilty last spring
and sentenced to death. Efforts were
made to get the Governor to interfere, but
to no avail. No demonstration of any
kind was made.

Ashby at Lorena.
Editor Evening News


Yesterday Mr.. Stump Ashby spoke
at Lorena. 1t had been given out by
the Union Labor people that Hon.
Geo. Clark would answer him, and
quite crowd had assembled. Find.
ing it all canard about Clark, gotten
up to draw a crowd, the Democrats
present requested Capt. Jack Elgin to
answer him. The Labor people had
exhibited great eagerness to find a
foreman for Ashby, but when Elgin
signifed his witness to meet him he
spoke three hours and a half, until too
late for reply. But the staunch Demo.
Gratis of Lorena were determined not
to be out done, and announced speak.
ing for that night,when fair audience
assembled to hear Capt. Elgln, who
gave them some sure enough labor
reform talk-dealing largely in facts
and figures, and presenting the tariff
issue with such force as to drive Ash
by, in his reply. from his ridicule of
traiff reform and to a declaration for
free trade; and an abandonment of
national politics to state issues. His
replication to Capt. Elgin being
chiefly confined to the convict system
and the claiming of a white woman
convict to negro in San Antonio,
questions that had not been opened
in the discussion in main. The Demo.
Gratis of Lorena seemed to be entirely
satisfied with the result Of the discus.
sion and feel no further dread of the
apostle of Labor A DEMOCRAT.

In Newark, N. J., on Sunday night
last, Max Groose, young German
matchmaker, whose mind is evidently
unbalanced, suddenly seized his young
infant three months old and attempted
TO dash it out of his wife's room, in
the third story. The wife, a delicate
little woman of twenty-four, sprang
after her husband and succeeded in
tearing the babe out Of his arms.
Then the lunatlc turned upon her and
aorced her through the window with
the child still in her arms. As he for.
ced his wife over the ledge Of the win.
dow, he seized her by her feet, and she
was so being held, head down, out of
the window with the babe still clutch.
cd tightly in her arms, when she was
discovered by passers by. An en-.
trance was made to the house by sew.
eral men who, on entering the maniac's
room, seized him and the endangered
wife at the same instant. AS soon as
she was pulled inside, the woman
tainted, and it is feared her terrible
experience may lead to alteration OF
the mind.

Col Barlow can't forget Waco no
matter how far away he may be. He
has still laundering after his old po-
litical stamping ground, and, in the is
sue Of the Victoria Advocate Of Sep
TENDER the first, reviews the political
aspects Of the ninth Congressional
District in his own pungent styler. In
the article he outlines the probable
Congressional Independent Candidate
in the following racy style:
1t is now said that Col. E, A. Jones,
a lawyer of acknowledged ability, a
man Of pure and spotless life and a
gentleman above reproach in both his
public and private character, has been
selected to head the forces. We be.
lieve Col. Jones was an original old
line whig, or at least, of old line wing
origin, and last summer he was an ar.
dent prohibitionist. Put this last with
the high tariff blood of his original
political sentiments, and we have a
competent explanation as to motive.
But still add to it a lofty ambition, a
nerve Of steel and an eloquence equal
to that of Mills himself, and we may
be able to comprehend some Of the
immediate dangers which beset Mr..
Mills pathway to reelection. Col.
Jones is man above and out of reach
