TBS MLESmlRUS CBCRCB b MJcise. eirt in mumumm - If-- fiiJ4igm. The reading public cannot haYefor gotten the case of Kev. Dr. Leftwitch and; Deacon Block, of Atlanta, Ga. They are Presbyterians; the one was a nastor.the other an Office-bearer. Deacon Block gave a dance at his house and the circumstance gave rise to much scan dal and finally to an ecclesiastical court martial. The result of all this was that Dr. Leftwitch resigned his pastor ate, one of the most desirable in the city, and that the case of the deacon went by appeal to the "court.of last re sort" the General : Assembly of the rhnrh This bodv v acted upon the case at its recent meeting'in Louisville, It opened the whole question of danc ing so far as it relates to members of the Presbyterian Church, the questions beinz the following, submitted to the General Assembly by the Presbytery of Atlanta: First Are the deliverances of I860, 1869 and 1877, on the subject of worldly amusement, to be accepted and enforc ed as law by judicial process? Second. Are all the offences named in them to be so dealt with, or are excep tions to be made V Third. Are the deliverances of all our church courts of the same nature and authority, so far as the bounds of these respective courts extend ? , The committee to whom these were referred made a report, answering the first in the negative, on the ground that the deliverances referred to "do not re quire judicial prosecution expressly, and could not require it, without violat ing the spirit of our law that "none of these deliverances were made by the Assembly in a strictly judicial capacity, but were all deliverances in thesi, and, therefore, can be considered as only didactic, advisory arid monitory." The committee continues at some length in answer to the first question which answer, they say, answers the second also. In answer to the third q uestion the report says : jj The nature and authority of all our church courts are the same, so far as the bounds of these respective courts ex tend, subject, of course, to the provi sions for review and control of the lower courts by the higher. The power of the whole is in every part, but the power of the whole is the power f every part. The report, which is a Vfrv lengthy one was adopted, and thusTis set at rest a vexed question, though the meaning of the committee is a good deal obscur red by the language employed, the amount of it all seems to -be that due regard must be had for the' rulings and admonitions of the Church, but the Church is required to abstain from harsh and tyrannical action towards members who may indulge in dancing and theatre-going, yet without overt sin. , It should rather resort to the far mrre efficacious methods of "inspection, iniuest, remonstrance, rebuke and pri v.ite admonition." Newspaper Removal. It Is an nounced that John I). Cameron. Esq, will in a very short time move his news paper, the Hillsboro Recorder, to Dur ham. The taking of the Reorder from Hillsboro will seem like a removal of one of the "landmarks which the fathers have set," It is the oldest newspaper in North Carolina, having been pub lished continuously at Hillsboro since 1820. II illsboro, , however, has fallen be hind the times; it has been outstripped by its youthful Sister, Durham, which doubtless offers the Recorder a better support than can lie assured it at Hills boro. Durban) could afford to pay high for the privilege of having published there a newspaper such as the Recorder is. There is no place in the State, to which it would not be an honor. Of striking ability, dignity, and most ex cellent judgment, it has, under Mr. Cameron's management, been an hon r, not only to Hillsboro, but North Car lina and to the profession. We trust that in its new home its high qualities may 'meet with a propej: recognition, and that the best expectations of Us excellent and accomplished editor may be fulfilled. - Mb. Robbins's 20th May Address. The address of Hon. Wm. M.:Rob-' bias,' delivered in this city on the 20th inst, has met a flattering reception on the part of the press of this and other States'. The Wilmington Star reviews it irn editorial article a column in length, and pronounces it "excellent whether reviewed as to its style, its scope and unity, its inspiring senti ments, or its noble State pride.",, It.de-t clares the arrangement of the histori cal facts "judicious, and the discussion luminous and impressive." It hopes "t will be printed in pamphlet and widely distributed,'' , because -if is his tory .in ajcojnpactand enjoyable form," and because . it "discusses the fact of a" declaration ith ; conclusive force." All this is very high praise but no one who heard or has read the address can "but admit that it is very just praise. Archbishop PurceLl's Debts. The bishops of the Roman Catholic Church in the United States, who have been holding a conference in New York city with reference of the indebtedness of Archbishop Purpell, of L Cincinnati, an nounce that their deliberations have re sulted in a plan for meeting tbeArch bishop's heavy obligations. A circular will be Issued, and the united appealsof all the bishops are, expected to meet a r3sponse which will payevery dollar of the ponderous debt - The leaders in this matter seldom fail to effect the rv suit at which they aim in raising funds and we may hope they will be succews- ..juinow. v.- - Chas.

This message, like the others, is merely a camriaien doGumenti and even as such. will not carry much weight wiin rc. 11 does not lie in the mouth of Mr, Hayes, least of all. men, to make-war upon tha system of ( tacking political legislation opon appropriation bills jjirice lie has voted in Congress in favor of this very thing, and it doesn't stand any Republi can in hand, Mr. Hayes nor any one else, to argue that supervision of elections is necessary to maintain their purity, see ine that that party has never exercised this supervision in, the -past except for the purpose" ot falsifying public senti ment as expressed at the polls. Upon this point Mr. Hayes's theory is very excellent, as a theory, but the people know to their cost what it means when put into practical operation. The veto develops nothing new. It simply goes over the ground traversed by the Republican Senators and Repre sentatives in their discussions of this bill, and even as a campaign document it is not likely to prove very effective. Senator Vance delivered the oration Wednesday at the tobacco fair at Lynchburg, Va. Mr. Steele was en gaged to deliver the literary address Tuesday, at Greensboro Female Col lege, but could not leave Washington. If the session of Congress continues Chapel Hill and Wake Forest will, both be disappointed, for' Senator Thurman is expected to deliver the address at the one and Senator Ransom at the;other, and neither of these gentlemen can leave Washington during the last al ways the most important days of the session. The Hillsboro Recorder and Durham Tobacco Plant both refute in very warm terms the libels upon their county and people, perpetrated by the New; York Herald and Sun in their reports of the recent execution of the Chapel Hill bur glars at Hillsboro. The Plant says the libels in the Herald were penned by a native born Carolinian, who reported the execution for that paper; if so the matter is made so much the worse. - TheNorthem Presbyterian Assembly which was in session for nearly two weeks at Saratoga Springs, adjourned last Tuesday after passing resolutions inveighing strongly, against theatre going, newspaper reading on Sunday, and the Roman Catholic Church. We thank Senator Vance for a pamph let eopy of his recent excellent speech : our thanks are also due Speaker Ran dall for a copy of the recent; speech of Hon. Ben Hill, of Georgia.

VETO NUMBER :THREE THE PRESIDENT E-3DERS HIS REA- Summary of Mr. Hayes's Reasons for Declining to 'Sign the Legislative, Executive and Judicial Appro- : priation Bill. Washington. Mav 29.; The Presi dent's veto of the legislatlveTexecritlve and judicial appropriation bill was sent in to Congress to-day. The President in the message accompanying the veto, after stating the main purpose of the bill which he returns without his ap proval, says: "This money is needed to keep In Operation the essential func tions of aii the great departments of the government-the legislativeexecu- , . 1 1; i Til .1 1:11 .X-: 1 live anu juuiuiai.. xj. uie ulu vuuuuuw. no other provisions, no objection to its approval would be made. It embraces, however, a number of clauses relating to subjects of great general interest, which are wholly unconnected with the appropriation which it - provides for. The objections to the practice of tack ing general legislation to appropriation bills, especially when the object is to de prive a co-ordinate branch of the gov ernment of its right to the free exercise of its own discretion and judgment touching such general legislation, were set forth in a special message in rela tion to the House bill No. 1, which was returned to the House of Representa tives on the 29th of last month." He regrets that the objections which were then expressed, to this method of legis lation have not seemed to Congress of sufficient weight to dissuade it from the. renewed incorporation of general enact ments in an appropriation bill, and that his constitutional duty in respect of general legislation thus placed before him cannot be discharged without seem ing to delay, bowever briefly, the neces sary appropriations by Congress for the support of the government. He then quotes the clauses repealing the sections of the revised "statutes in relation to supervisors of elections and deputy marshals, and states that the bill if approved would repeal or amend sec tions of the act approved May 30; 1870, and amended February 28th, 1871, en titled "an act to enforce the rights ' of citizens in the United States to vote in the several States of this Union and for other purposes," and says the true mean ing and effect of the proposed legisla tion are plain. Supervisors, with au thority to observe and witness the pro ceedings at congressional elections, will be left, but there will be no power to protect them or to prevent interference with their duties or to punish any vio lation of law from which their powers are derived. If this bill is approved on ly the shadow of the authority of the United States at the national elections will remain ; the substance will be gone ; supervision of elections will be reduced to mere inspection without authority on the part of supervisors to do any act whatever to make the election a fair one. All that will be left to the super visors is permission to have such over sight of ejections as political parties are in tne nauit 01 exercising wiuioul any authority of law, in order to prevent their opponents from obtaining unfair advantages. The object of the Dill is to destroy any control whatever by the United States over congressional elec tions. The passage of this bill has been urged upon the ground that the elec tion of members of Congress is a mat ter which concerns the States alone ; that these elections should be opntrolled exclusively by the States; tbat there are and can be no such elections as na tional elections, and that the existing Jaw of the United States regulating con gressional elections is without warrant in the constitution, He tlien quotes the constitution to show that the fr&raers of that docu ment regarded the election of members of Congress in every State as justly a matter of political interest and con cern to the whole country, and refers to the law passed in lSQfl, which prescrib ed full and detailed regulations for the election of Senators by the legislatures of the several States, "and says: "This law has been in force almost thirteen years. In pursuance of it all the mem bers of the present Senate of the United States hold their seats. Its constitution ality is not called in question. It is confi dently believed that no sound argu ment can be made in support of the constitutionality of national regulation of senatorial elections which will not show that the election of members of t))e Jfpuse of Representatives may also be ponstjtuttommy regulate by nation al authority, The bill before ne itself recognizes the principle that congress sional elections are not State elections but national elections. It leaves in full force the existing statute under which supervisors are still to be ai pointed by national authority, to 'ob serve and witness' congressional elec- 4- 1 - Jt lTiti M l Liuus w iieiievej. uue cippucctiiuii is maue by citizens who desire said elections to be 'guarded and scrutinized.' If power ta supervise in any respect whatever congressional elections exists under section 4, article l, of the constitution, it is a power which like every other power belonging to the government of the 'United States, is paramount and Supreme and includes the right to era- fiojr the" necessary means to carry it nto effect. 4f -4 He concludes : "This bill recognizes the authority and duty of the United Statesto appoint supervisors to guard and scrutinize congressional elections, but denies to the government '-of the United States, all povyer to make Jts supervision effectual. The great body of the people of all parties want f ree, fair elections. They do- not think that free election means freedom : from wholesome restraints of law, or that the place of election should be a sanc tuary for lawlessness and crime. On the day of election peace and good or der are more .necessary ; than on any other day of the year. On that day the humblest anil fiflebiest piizens,rged and infirm, should be, shoUW have rear son to feel that they are, safe in the ex ercise of their most responsible duty and their most sacred right as members of society their duty and their right to .vote. The constitutional authority to regulate congressional elections which belongs ... to the government of the United States, and which is necesr sary to secure the right to vote to every citizens possessing tne requisite qualift- cations, ought to be enforced by appro priate .legislation. So far from public opiniorrin any part of the Icountry fa voring any relaxation of the authority of the government in the protection of elections from violenpe ana corruption, I believe it demands greater vigor, both in the enactment and in the execution of the laws framedfar jthatparpose.3! i "Any oppression 'ally partizahpjlr tiality, which experience f may have .shown In tfc wof Wng,of existing laws, A way weu engage toe oareiiu attention of both Congress and of the executive in their respectiye spheres of duty, for the correction ; of these mischiefs.

' BLAINE, HIIL ND YANCF, HITCH on intimidation:, in iTHE- SOUTH. " ," . The Senate Discuss McDonald's BUl-r- Hovt) the House Received the Veto. WashIngton, May 29. Senate. On McDonald's "resolution to refer to the committee on election frauds a per tition of citizens of Rhode Islands com plaining of deprivations of right to vote by reason of property qualification in that State, an animated debate on the relative apportionment in the States arose, in which Blaine. Hill and Vance took part Blaine said the small votes in several districts in Georgia and other Southern States were undoubtedly caused by intimidation. This was de nied by Hill who explained that where only one candidate was nominated the people did not turn ou and a small poll was the natural result He absolutely denied the insinuations of fraud made by the Senator from Maine. Vance spoke to the same effect. The morning hour expired, the reso lutions went over, and the senate tooK up the bill regulating the use of militia and 1 and . and naval forces. Wallace ; moved an amendment and spoke at length, denouncing the existing law permitting certain uses of the army and favoring the present bill. The river and harbor bill was then taken up. Hereford spoke in favor and Conkling against it Before the latter finished, a motion to adjourn until Monday prevailed Housk. Gibson, from the committee of ways and means, reported the reso lution providing for,, the final adjourn ment of Congress on the 10th of June, On motion or Atkins it was laid over till Saturday. The veto message was received from the President laid before the House and read. It was listened to with close, and for a time,, almost respectful at tention. Only an audible Utter went through the Democratic ranks when the sentence was read as to the effect of the existing law being to secure honest elections. Again, when the sentence was read as to what good faith, honest endeavors and judicial authority can do for the protection of the elective franchise, the Democrats laughed out right and the Republicans, as a coun terdemonstratian, applauded. Cox wanted to have the sentence read again, but his wish was not granted. At the conclusion of the reading, the Republicans again applauded. The House proceeded to vote on the bill and refused to pass it over the Presi dent's veto yeas 112, rtays 91 a strict party vote. It was then referred to the judiciary committee. On motion of Stephens the Senate amendments to the subsidiary coinage bill were concurred in. Adjourned to Monday. A TARIFF RESOLUTION DEFEATED. At the session of the ways and means committee to-day, Felton, of Georgia, offered the following resolution : "That the committee on ways and means will report to the House during this session of Congress a bill repealing the duty on all the salts of Cinchona or Peruvian bark, with the recommendation that it pass." Frye made the point of order that under the resolution recently adopted by the committee, "That this committee will not consider at this ses sion any bills or joint resolutions affect ing the revenue, and that all such mea sures shall be laid over until the regular session in December," the committee could not entertain the resolution, The chairman, Gibson, of Ionisiana, over ruled the point of order, whereupon Conger appealed. The decision was not sustained and Felton's resolution was therefore defeated, Complexions! Indications. The complexion of persons whose digestion is out ot order, who are bilious, or who lack vigor, al ways exhibits an unhealthy tint It Is by regulat ing the bodily organs and promoting digestion and assimilation, that the parchment hue Indicative of ill health, is banished from the cheeks.
