NEW YORK, May 22:-The General AS.
sembly of the. Presbyterian Church to-
DAY adopted the report of the COMMITTEES
on Creed Revision, making changes In
the Confession of Faith. This action,
which was practically unanimous. was
taken with little or no debate. The
changes proposed will now go to the

The prospect Of an Interesting debate on.
creed revision attracted a crowd wiici,
filled the galleries solidly. Rev ".
Henry c. Minton, chairman of the Rev..
sion COMMITTEES. spoke for the report
.The misrepresentation as to the con-
fession,'' said Dr. Minton, have come
from the unguarded statements on the
confession itself and unwarranted infer
ences from the confession. In the first
cases verbal changes were the remedy.
In the second, declaratory statements
We're necessary.
Dr., Minton then took up the various
noints ON which the committee had been
asked to pass. Regarding the Pope of

A WITTY SPEECH.
Captain J. r. Patterson, of Petersburg,
made a most witty and captivating
speech in favor of amending the Book
of Church Orders in the section on the
call for the pastor by striking out the
words ''that you may be free from
worldly cares and avocations." But con-
servatism of the Assembly was too much
for even the genial Captains humor, and
the motion failed.
The Assembly will adjourn tomorrow.
The report Of the Committee on s., boa N
Observance stated that the day is falling
into disrepute and that the outlook IS
gloomy. Their report declares that the
Sabbath is gradually losing its hold on
the heart and conscience of the people IN
general The strict views and pra cticess OF
our fathers in the church are largely
modified by lax faith and practice OF our
members of to-day. While the, state laws
are sufficient to break up the Sabbath
desecration, public sentiment is against
their enforcement.
