Some ask specific action, but most leave 10 the
Assembly what Il shall be. The commit
tee praises the prcsbyteries for their zeal, and
thinks their requests should have weight Tho
committee reply to 80 much of the report OF the
Union Theological Seminary as bears on Dr.
Brggs's appointment or transfer TO the chair Of
biblical theology: "Our duty rs a delicate one,
and especially as the Presbytery Of Now York is
trying him on the charge Of heresy-as We must
not prejudice case which nj some time must

US Is not that Of his dOctrnal sOundness, but that
Of the approval Of his election by the Assembly

from one chair TO another Besides, tho Assem-
bly Is one party TO a compact with the Union
Theological Seminary and must be eau

seminary consider that the original ap-
pointment gives status, and that this

wethink the Assembly has control OF both, yet

allow Americans 70 take or buy bait there. In
der the treaty Of 1878 Americans have tho same
rights n the British on the French shore, and
they have never before been interfcred with by
the French. The consul has telegraphed 10 Mr..
Blaine for instructions. The French have no
right 70 interfere 70 prevent the Americans, as
the British Government denied 10 the French any
Jurisdiction In the territorial waters on the oc-
currcnces in the same bay last year.
