EQUAL RECOGNITION.
Resolutions Adopted by the American
Home Missionary Society.

SARATOGA, June 6.-At the extra morning
meeting Of the American Home Missionary So
ciety to decide the conditions oD which the
southern white churches that have recently ap-
Piled for congregational fellowship shall be
aided BY this society, after a very earnest dis
cussion of the present and future relations be-
tween them and the Congregational churches
and associations already in that region, the
members of which are mostly colored, the fol-
lowing resolutions were unanimously adopted:
In the 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.
''Resoiced That We heartily welcome them to
fellowship with Us IN the gospel, We commend
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 the state of
Its treasury shall permit.
That this society rejoices to learn that an
effort Is being made to unite the Georgia Con-
gregational conference and the Georgia Con-
gregatlonal association on principles of equal
recognition and fellowship of all the
churches of each body and trusts that such a
union will be accomplished"
Great satisfaction expressed at the unan-
imous adoption of these resolutions. as at one
time 1t was feared that there might be serious
split on the caste question.
Secretary l.. III. Cobb, ID. D. gave an account
OF the American Congregational union, the
object of which is to assist in building churches
and parsonages. He said that the total receipts
for the year ended June |. were SIG So. OS or
S3l 800. ID more than for the year before The
receipts for the first five months of 1889 were
S6S.OOO. or $4,000 more than for the CORES
pOndIng months of 1883. There were COM
pleted IN the year ninety-nine houses of wor-
ship and fity-twO parsonages. or nineteen
more buildings than in 1855. There are out
standing pledges 70 sixty-nine churches for aid
In building houses of worship or parsonages.
and money l. in the treasury to meet these
There was never time when there was greater
need of such work.

AGAINST THE EMPEROR.
Socialists Sending Pamphlets Through
out the Whole German Empire.

LONDON. June 6.-Private advices from Der.
lin TO the German revolutionary colony here
say that the socialists. with the aid Of their Sc
cret printing presses, have issued hundreds of
thousands of leaves containing a report Of the
recent interview between the emperor and the
delegation Of miners from the strikers in the
Essen and Dortmund districts. In this leafet
the emperor is represented as saying to the
miners that il the strikers allied themselves
with the social democrats they would be shot
down without mercy, as he regarded every So
cial democrat az an enemy to the empire. The
leaflets are sent through the post concealed in
other literature, packed into cases of goods
shipped from clothing and other manufactures,
nailed on trees and fences under cover of night
and given circulation in a hundred other WAYS.
Inc authorities so far are utterly at sea in their
efforts to track down the principals although
suspicion attaches TO two well-known demo-
cratic members of the German parliament.
