the removal of The pastor signed by nearly
400 members. Elder Fulton's adherents
presented petition asking that DR.. Beals
be removed signed by over 100 mem-
bers among whom were some Of the lead
ing members.
Mr.. Fulton, when he saw the large ma
jority Of members against him, immedi-
Rtely admitted that his charges Of neglect
of duty, dishonesty and other offences
were entirely without foundation, and
expressed regret at the stand he had
taken in the trouble.
The committee then demanded that
Elders Fulton aud Jones hand in their
designations. which was accordingly done.
After this decision was rendered DR..
Beale said that if in the future ne wculS
soc that his ministry was detriment t,
the progress of the church, he would re.
sign and insist that his resignation be
accepted.
MIR. Fulton is very angry over the turn
affairs have taken, and il is feared he will
take large number of his friends from
the church.
The two elders who were elected last
month will fill the vacancies caused by
the comrnittee's decision. Both are greatly
in favor Of DR.. BeRle, and the indication
now arc that psacs will reign in the

Mr.. Lincoln was of peculiarly sympathetic

entire political career. They would not seem,
at first glance, to be efficient aids to political
success; but in the peculiar emergency which
