he sent troops to B.rryville and Lu

Richmond, and now he tells the author

the Georgia military join them, and
also. that it is his intention to partici.
pate in the big military procession the
next day in honor of President Cleve-

substitution of the words According
% American use." There was
minority report in which the proposed
change was characterized as a vir-

of prayer-book revision, which has
already been settled and therefore IN
wise and to be deprecated as calculated
to alarm the members of the commu-
ion. A vote by dioceses and orders
was taken. which resulted as follows:
Clerical vote, ayes, 49, nays, 80; d.
vided, 8. Lay vote, ayes, IL; nays,
80; divided, 4.
The house again refused to change the title
of the church as designated in the prayer
book and the formal resolution of nor .concur-
rance with the bishops was adopted by a large
majority on viva voce vote.

THE "Colored Voters Club" of Lock

two hundred, has publicly announced
that if any money is coming its men,
bers at the:approaching election, they
want it direct, and not through white
republican dispensers, as they have
learned by experience that such men
pocket most OF the money that is nomi
n"lly spent in making the negro vote
solid. The cub referred to has at las
struck bed rock. If all the other ne
yroes in the North would do likewise,
elections there would be more profitable
to their members than they now are.
