SOUTHERN ASSEMBLY.
Action Taken Regarding Women Lee
turers After a Long Debate.

CHARLOTTE, N. c., May 22.-The assem-
bly, to-day, after the usual devotional ex-
ercises, received and referred various COM
munications. The committee on bills and
overtures made partial report. They rec
commended that women be forbidden the
use of pulpits for public addresses to mixed
audiences, and that it be pronounced i'm
proper to give notices of such meetings.
This precipitated lively debate. DR.. Pier
took the position that, while the Bible alb
solutely forbade female ordination, il did
not forbid all kinds of public testimony by
women. DR.. Walden and DR.. Smoot strong
ly advocated the adoption of the report.
The order of the day put an end to the de-
bate.
DR.. Mclean, of the American Bible So
ciety, made a stirring appeal in behalf of
the institution, whose labors, he said, were
essential to the doctrine and activities of
the church in America and abroad Inc
assembly then listened to DR.. Daniel on pol
icy and worship in connection with the
Westminster celebration. The weather is
charming. Crowds of people are attending
the services, which are deeply interesting.
Ten ex-moderators are present as commits
sioners or visitors. adding much to the gen.
eral interest. The assembly is strongly
conservative.
At the afternoon session the discussion
on the question whether or not women shall
lecture from the pulpits to mixed audi
enceS was resumed. DR.. Smoat made
strong and witty address in opposition, He
regarded women ecturing from the pull
pits as unscrptural and degrading and as
a wedge towards the church'S Sloughing
off. 1t was not he said, question of cour
tesy, refinement or culture. but a scriptu-
raj question. 1t was a departure from the
Bible, and such women Christ did not need
III His work. Hrs. Walden, Mailer, Shearer
and others followed in the same line. DR..
PETER, of Washington, could see no impro-
priety in female missionaries testifyirg on
their return from foreign lands. The dis
cussion occupied a great part of the day.
Dr. Beatty, from whose presbytery West
Lexington, Ky.) the question came up, Of
fered a substitute that the assembly refer
the overture to former clear deliVerances
which settle the principles and which
should guide us in all our church sessions
and in our procedure" The substitute was
carried by vote of Il to GO.
The communication from the Prohibition
party of North Carolina in reference to
some utterances of the assembly along this
line provoked heated argument. The
committee on bills and overtures to which
it had been referred, reported as follows:
THAT this assembly is forbidden to inter-
NEEDLE with political parties or questions
and the constant and fcriptural attitude of
our beloved church on temperance and m
temperance as shown by past deliveranceS,
is on record" The report of the commit
tee was after much debate, adopted
DR.. Dabney addressed the assembly this
afternoon on ministerial education. and
the assembly then adjourned till Monday
morning.

Cumberland Presbyterians.

CHICAGO, May 22-,At the third days
session of the Cumberland Presbyterian
General Assembly resolutions were adopted
expressing sympathy with the American
Bible Society and promising the co-opera-
ton of the Cumberland Church. Rev. E. B.
Smith, superintendent of the Bible society,
addressed the assembly on the work of the
organization of which he is the head. A
resolution was presented by Rev. j. r.
Goodpasture of Tennessee, asking that the
numerical strength of the different churches
be ascertained. and it was referred to the
proper committee.
Rev. j. Nj. Colt, general manager of the
committee of the board of publication. sub
mitted the report of that committee. 1t
showed that the balance to the credit of the
committee up to the present time is $215.6l.
The balance up to the first of the year was
81 502 "a. The receipts during the past year,
including the balance on hand, are $3.50 49,
and the expenses, including the cash on
hand, just equal this amount. The clrcu-
lation of Sunday school periodicals during
the past year has amounted to 124. 1873. On
the Cumberland Presbyterian paper the re-
port stated that the result of the year
showed a loss of 81, 1853.
This afternoon the conference heard the
reports OF the committee on ministers and
on the organization of Christian Endeavor.

Incend larry Agitation.

The Charleston Gazette contains
an incendiary editorial under the
demagogic title of Government by
Injunction
The provocation, as usual, is a
man of straw" 1t takes an idle,
unauthenticated rumor that theWest
Virginia Bar Association, at its re-
cent meeting, declared IN favor of
Government by Injunction"
The West Virginia Bar Associa-
ton did not make any declaration
on the subject. That Association
didn't descend to the demagogic
and sensational discussion implied
by the term Government by Injunc-
ton That Association, we believe,
is too patriotic and law loving to be-
come party to any such incendiary
agitation.
Nevertheless that did not prevent
the Gazette from assuming what
was necessary to its purpose, and
making that false assumption the
basis of a TRADE against the legal
Profession, and endeavoring to array
class against class, and fire the pop
ulace to hatred and malice against
one of the branches of our govern
ment, which all history shows has
been the most conservative and the
most loyal to the rights and liberties
of the people of any other branch.
The Bar Association met at this
place, and all its sessions were open
to the public, but there is no hint in
any report of its proceedings that
the lawyers of this state have taken,
or are disposed to take, any radical
departure in matters of government,
or are less loyal to the old landmarks
of constitutional government than
the legal Profession has always been
from the foundation of the Ameri-
can Republic.

THE Minneapolis Journal says: "Mr.
Feig in his attempt to throw down
the university tax levy bill last night
brought out a fact which ought to
have weight hereafter in legislation
relative to the university, and that
was that the agricultural school cos
more per capita than any other part
of the university. The state is doing
more for agriculture in proportion to
the present demand than it is for the
arts and sciences, and this is right; it
ought to. The university receives
large grants from the government
with the understanding that agricul-
tural education should be promoted
ed by it. Agricultural education was
farce in this university, as in nearly
every other so-called state university
or agricultural college, until within
the last eight or nine years. The
University of Minnesota has redeem.
ed itself, however, and the farmer has
no longer any occasion to complain IF
the quantity or the character of the
educational facilities afforded along
agricultural lines.
