ton university in 1875. During his

dist general conference. Agents of

considerable controversy has taken
place. Samuel III. Pye and A. c. Jen-

for the Chicago and Cincinnati Of

i. Mains We're reelected to the New
York Office.

considered its action ~ a week ago in
abolishing additional secretaries of
the various church benevolences so
far as the Freedmen's Aid and South
ern Education society was concerned.
The debate resulting IN this action
was quite bitter at times, the race
question being brought out promi-
nently, and once in the discussion an
angry delegate accused another of
uttering a falsehOod. The convention
at times became involved in appar-
emily hopeless parliamentary tangles
and Presiding Bishop Ninde admon-
ished the delegates not to turn the
conference into a debating society.

The style is in conformity with that
of the other buildings, with an ar

what it is hoped may be executed
some day in permanent form.
