NEW YoRK, June 1s-At a meeting OF
The New York prssbytery Professor Fran.
els Brown. of Union seminary. moved that
the official announcement from the Gen
eral Assembly OF the reversal OF the pres
bytery's Judgment and the suspension OF
DR.. Briggs be not entered upon the records.
He also put forward a set of resolutions
and memorial to be presented to the
next General Assembly attacking the con.
stitutionality of the General Assembly,
appeal, not only on the methods which
were observed In the conduct, but also on
the ground that that body had no right
whatever to take up the question before 1t
had been submitted to the synod.
After Professor Brown had read the
memorial, which was quite lengthy
he proceeded to state his case. No one in
terrupted him, but the minute that he sat
down dozen men arose, clamoring fol
recognition.
Then there was confusion, and at on,
time four members claimed the floor at thu
same time. Nearly two hours Of stormy
discussion ensued. In which an effort wa,
made 70 lay the memorial on the table
until October. Four motions to adjourn
were lost.
The moderator decided that the discus
sion was In order. and the body. by a vote
OF 80 to Il, refused to lay It on the table
BY flank movement, however, the objec
tors had discussion suspended while DR.
Hermann p. Faust, once jewish rabbi
asked for and obtained acceptance into the
Presbyterian church. Then q motion tc
adjourn was carried and the memorial
goes over with other unfinished business
for October's meeting. In the meantime
the decision Of the General Assembly will
be recorded on the minutes of the New
York presbytery.

Harvard's sanitary condition is the sub

groundless, it would seem, because for the

ger. The right of student to live in any
locality is still subject to the permission OF
the faculty, and an inspection of students
quarters has begun with a view to black
listing unwholesome houses.
In one department at least every student
room will be visited. Where such a course
seems necessary a physician and sanitary
expert will prescribe measures necessary &c
obviate any suspicious conditions, and IN
less these are complied with the places will
be declared untenantable for those connect

In 1850 the Azores came under the power
Of Spain, and in the history of the next 90
years their name is frequent as the favorite
battle-ground Of the English and Spanish
fleets. The Partially was indeed mainly
on the side Of the former and for q good
reason. These islands lay right in the track
of all vessels sailing to and from that EN-
chanted region known to all men as the
Spanish Main.
On the highest peak of Terceira, whence
In clear weather the sea could be scanned
for leagues around, were raised two col
umns, and by them a man watched night
and day. When he saw any sails approach
ing from the west. he set q flag upon tho
western column-one for each sail. If they
came from the east, a similar sign was set
on the eastern column.
Hither In those days came up out of the
mysterious western seas the great argosies
laden with gold and silver and Jewels, with
silks and spices and rare woods, wrung a.
the cost Of thousands of harmless lives and
cruelties unspeakable from the fair lands
which lie between the waters Of the Carib-
bean sen and the giant wall of the Andes.
And hither, when England, too, began to
turn her eyes to Ell Dorado, came the great
war galleons of Spain and Portugal to
meet these precious cargoes and convey
them safe into Lisbon or Cadiz before those
terrible English sea wolves could get scent
Of the prize.-Macmillan's Magazine.

nursing Purneli. but had always seen
his father attending to him. Mr..

4 MIR. Churchman called Viola Purnell
In rebuttal, and she admitted that
Lewis sometimes assisted Seweil in
nursing Purnell, but Sewell always at.
tended to him at night. She denied
that Seweli was counting her.
