GENERAL ASSEMBLY ADJOURNS.

Last Days Proceedings of the Pittsburg
Meeting.
PlTTsBURa, May 2S.-The 107th gem
eral assembly Of the Presbyterian
church adjourned at the close Of the
afternoon session. The last day was
characterized by speed and dispatch.
The proceedings contained nothing of
a sensational character, being confined
to routine matters with one or two OK:
ceptions. 1t had been expected by
some that action would be taken
against DR.. Briggs by deposition, but
such a motion was not proposed. 1t
had been whispered about that de.
liverance would be made against the
Presbyterian league Of New York and
against the signers of the 'peace and
work circular" but wiser counsels pre-
vailed. The final statement Of the
moderator that the church would stand
by the present decisions was received
with applause.
