in order to Distinguish it from q similar but
much smaller body, which meets at the came
time in the South. Efforts have been made in
vain TO unite the two branches Of the Church,
and Inst year it waS hoped that the full tide
Of Centennial memories would sweep away all
barriers 10 organic union. This hope was
dashed, however, when the Southern Assembly
decided that IL was unable TO discover that the
obstacles to organic union had to any extent
been removed But IL consented to the APP

Northern Assembly went much further in its
oYertrres looking To the union Of the two As

for organic union, the interviews with repre-
sentatives Of the Southern Church, published in
THE TRIBUNE within month or two, have
shown eOncluSyely that the hour has not yet
