Action of the Missionary Society on
the Subject.
SARATOGA, June 6-At the extra morn
ing session of the American Home Mission
airy Society, to decide the conditions on
which southern white churches that have
recently applied for congregational fellow
ship shall be aided by this society, after very
earnest discussion of the present and future
relations between them and the congrega-
tional churches and associations already in
that region, the members of which are
mostly colored, the following resolutions
were unanimously adopted:
In full conviction that these churches are in
accord with the principles of this society and
with those held by the congregational churches
which it represents;
ReSolUed, That we heartily recommend them
to fellowship with us in the gospel. We com
mend them to the fraternal sympathy and
prayers of all our people, and we request the
officers of the society to extend them such
financial aid as they may need as promptly as
the state of its treasury shall permit.
ReSolUed. That this society rejoices to learn
that effort is being made TO unite the
Georgia Congressional Conference and the
Georgia Congregational Association on the
principles of equal recognition and fellow
ship of all churches of each body, and trusts
that such union will be accomplished.
Great satisfaction was expressed at the
unanimous adoption OF these resolutions, as
at one time it was feared that there might
be a serious split on caste questions.

A REMARKABLE YACHT,
To Prevent Cotton Fires on v essels-
An American Idea.

To Prevent Cotton Fires on v essels-
An American Idea.
From the Boston Journal of Commerce.
Capt. Francis L. Norton's patent water
ballasted, non-capsizable, non -sinkable,
yawl-rigged, keel, 36-foot yacht Neversi nix
left New York on May IL, bou"d across the
Atlantic TO Havre, by way of Boston. She
is intended as an exhibit at the Paris expo
sltioa. She is manned by Capt. Josiah W.
Lawlor, Edward S. Mckinney and Hans
Hansen. She measures IS feet over all, 80
feet on the water line, IL feet beam, and
her draught OF water amidships is 80 inches
The NeversiIk's lower mast and topmast
are both i'll one piece, stout Oregon piae
stick, about 80 feet long. She has spare
suit Of sails, and whea running before the
wind she will carry Squaresail.
Capt Nortan says about the system on
which the Neversink is built and equipped:
"A boat or vessel constructed in this man-
ner will, on being placed i'll the water, auto
matically receive her water ballast through
the openings in its ballast chambers, and as
the air in them, except that contained in
the arms, is forced out, it cannot return,
and the water ballast is retained in position
until the boat is again taken from the wa
ter"
Another device or method has been added
to those heretofore proposed to prevent the
vessels. The safeguards nov brought for
ward consist in wrapping each bale of cot
ton in wire gauze instead of the usual COW
ering OF jute bsgging. 1t has heeu, it is
claimed, subjected to all kinds of tests, in
Gliding hooks and compression, and it is
alleged has proved itself equal in all
respects to iute bagging, the cost of the
new material at present being the same as
that of jute bagging. The principle in
volved is that fame will not pass through
very small holes, according to the
web known construction of the
Davy safety lamp. Cotton packed in the
hold Of a vessel will when once on fire burn
more or less slowly for weeks, even if the
hold is flooded with sea water, ami when
removing the cotton will burst into flames,
burning fiercely and most destructiveiy.
| Cotton bales have even been known TO float
blazing away when thrown overheard
after being taken from a burning vessel.
| In this case the cotton became heated
almost TO the charming point by the long
continued fire close by. But while such
wire cloth might stand a considerable de-
| gree of heat for some time, sooner or later
the material will oxidizs and fall into
pieces. II is suggested, therefore, that jute
| oagging might be treated with silicate of
| soda or some fireproofing water glass; to
render the fabric non-inflammable.

day.
Sigmund Brandt was admitted to citizen
ship in the superior court yesterday.
The bond of Robert Bryan was estreated
in the superior court yesterday. He was
under indictment for an assault with intent
to murder Joseph Jones.
The court last night dismissed the petit
Jury of the superior court until next Tues
day morning at 10 O'clock, and adjourned
until 10 o'clock this morning.
The trial of Patrick McEnenany for the
murder of Frank Dobson has been assigned
for Wednesday, July 10. Hon. P.

for the defense.
The trial of Walter Meyler for assault
with intent to murder has been assigned for
Tuesday, July 9.
The Dunn assault case will be tried in the
superior court Wednesday, June 10.
Wylly Grant was convicted in the
superior court yesterday for the unlawful
shooting OF Gus Butler, and was sent need
to two years in the penitentiary. Diver
Houston, alleged to have been an accom-
plice in the shooting, was acquitted BY a
jury. Under the cross-exa nination of
Thomas s. Morgan, Jr., counsel for the de-
tense, the testimony was conflicting and
differed in material essentials from the tes-
timony of the same witnesses on the trial of
Grant. Grant and Houston are colored
boys, the latter being only about Is years
of age.
In the superior court yesterday, Dick

the name of the man who swore out the

to crown the blunder, the name OF Dick
Turner is signed to the warrant, which, on

to-day, NJ. Dreyfus moved that 5000, 600
francs be added to the estimates for the

Germany's idea of warfare was not merely
a question of cannon balls. M. Spuller,

the terms of which Jay Gould is TO have con-
troll OF both tickers so far as their operation on
