His latest effort, however, is said to be

NEW CASTLE
PRESBYTERY.
Lively Debate Over Revi.
sion Of the Presbyter=
ian Greed.

Smyrna, April is. -Presbytorian minis
tiers engaged in spiritual parliamentary
struggle hute to- day at the convention of
the Presbytery of New Castle, embracing
all the Presbyterian Churches Of Delaware
and the Eastern shores Of Maryland and
Virginia, over the Westminster Confess
ion of Faith.
When Presbytery assembled for bust
ness to-day it was plainly seen that there
was strong undercurrent in favor of
melnoralizing the coming General Assem-
bly, for II revision of the celebrated doc
trine of the Church.
Late in the day the matter came up in a
motion of Rev Joseph Brown Turner, of
Dover. that ashort, simple creed be formu.
lated expressing the fundamental truths
of our holy faith.
Mr.. Levi. did not favor supplementing
the confession of faith Dlirely. but for the
good of tho church and Christ's kingdom
deemed it advisable to have working
creed.
The Rev. Y, A. McCurdy of Whining
Iun made Il vigorous attack on the resO-
luton. He declared that such attempts
Us this aimed at the cunfe, sion of faith
were tho products of minds of young mon
or those who had been received from other
churches
Mr.. Ftz Simon declared that such views
as Dr. McCurdy'' were narrow and not
fit for this age.
The Rev. 5. Bcatie Wy!ie of New Cas-
tie fought through motion to table the
resolution so it would not reach the Cen
zeal Assembly of the Church. The mo-
ton was adopted with a majority of two
votes.
A resolution was adopted to overture
the General Assembly to order that the
secretaries OF Sunday school work. and

be directed to turn over to the various
boards hey represent tho moneys they le-
ceivCd for preaching. An amendment
