TEE MORNING MAIL.

There are fourteen theological seminaries
and schools which make annual report to the
general assembly. and which are more or less
in connection with and related TO the Presby-
terrain Church. In the order in which they are
found in the minutes of 1892 these seminaries
and schools are as follows: Princeton, Auburn,
Western. Lane, Union. Danville, Mccormick,
Blackburn, San Francisco, Dubuque, Newark,
Lincoln. Biddle and Omaha.
The first theological seminary established by
the Presbyterian Church in the United States
of America was located at Princeton, New Jer-
sey. The first property contributed for the
purpose of maintaining theological seminary
of the Presbyterian Church was given to the
general assembly. and was held and owned by
it, and atthe time the seminary was founded.
but one seminary was contemplated by the
church
At the time of the formation of the first the
illogical seminary of the Presbyterian Church
1t was the purpose of the church 10 maintain
direct and complete control by its general
assembly of the teaching and property Of its
theological seminaries.
The creation of this civil corporation TO take
title to and own the property of the Princeton
Seminary was the first radical departure from
the original purpose and plan in the creation
and operation of theological seminaries by the
church The civil corporation became the
owner in rust of all property given TO it after
lis formation, and of all property given to the
seminary before that time. and the beneficial
use of such property as is still held by the trus
tees OF the general assembly for the seminary.

A COMMITTEE AT WORK.

account Of the efforts made to secure a con-
ference on a proper basis with representatives
of the Southern Presbyterian Church in respect
to the work of evaugelization among freed
men. The difficulty of the case had been
that the committee had not had the power
required TO fully represent the assembly, and
hence had not had a meeting with the commit
lee of the southern conference. 1t asked that
the committee be continued with the addition
of Rev. DIR. ". c. Young and with the neces-
sary powers. In addition. the committee re-
commended that the southern assembly at
Macon be invited TO appoint similar COM
mittee. The report was adopted
Theological Seminaries.
Rev. DR.. W. c. Young. chairman Of the COM
mittee on theological seminaries, presented the
report of his committee.
The report said:
The subject assigned to the committee for
report will, in so far as the committee has
reached any results, be best presented under
the following heads:
First. The present legal status OF the theo-
logical seminaries, including the ownership and
control of the property held in trust for them.
Second. The present control possessed by the
Presbyterian Church. through it's general as
sembiy, synods AID presbyteries. over the
teaching and property Of the theological semi
narles.

be best seen by an examination OF the re-

tial features of these charters for the purposes

the average number Of students, per an

According TO the minutes OF 1892 the total
