PRESIDENT'S REPORT, '
Dear Brethren in the Lord t
Grace, mercy and peace be upon you,
in the name or the Father and the Son,
and the Holy Ghost Amen. j-
By the mercy of our covenant-keeping
God we are permitted to meet again
in Sy nodical convention, and it becomes
us with grateful hearts to acknowledge
the goodness of God, and in the strength
which his grace supplies to enter heart
ily and joyfully upon the duties now
before us.
The two years that have intervened
since last we met have been signalized,
both in Church and State, by the most
stirring events; all of which, in their
issues, have wonderfully illustrated the
providence of God, -and laid his chil
dren under profound and lasting obli
gations to Him. .
The world has rapidly advanced in
the arts and sciences, and in all those
things which indicate a higher civiliza
tion. The church of the Lord Jesus Christ,
in all her branches, has been struggling
after a greater degree of purity in doc
trine and life, and striving for a more
perfect consciousness of the divinity of
her calling, and the full realization of
that missionary spirit which enables
her to comprehend the import of the
Savior's declaration: "The field is the
world." Never before, perhaps, in any
biennial period of her history has she
exhibited so much activity, nor exerted
so powerful an influence upon the
world than she has during the last two
years. At these things we rejoice and
from them we take courage.
The Evangelical Lutheran church in
these United States has shared largely
in this general prosperity.
Her membership has very greatly in
creased, her Christian liberality steadi
ly developed, her institutions of learn
ing prospered, while there has been a
gradual but sublime rising to a more
just appreciation of her patrimonial in
heritance in the rich treasury ot doc
trine and churchly usages which have
come down to us from the great Re
formation. Our church to-day is as actively and
as wisely engaged in spreading abroad
the saving doctrines of grace as any of
the denominations around us. And for
this we are thankful.
Our own General Synod South has
not been idle. Our pastors have been
active and faithful in preaching the
Word in its purity and administering
the sacraments; and our people have
grown in numbers and in grace. The
borders of our Zion have been enlarged
and our stakes have been strengthened.
Advance is stamped upon all our en
terprises, and fair success has attended
all our efforts to advance the kingdom
of our blessed Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ ' j.-
It is true that in some sections, and
in some respects, there has been but
little visible signs of advancement
This was necessarily so because of the
difficulties under which we have labor
ed. But even in these sections, and in
these particulars, the noble and self
sacrificing devotion to our glorious
cause and the stimulating hope that
have characterized our brethren are
worthy of commendation and augur
final success.
Some of these difficulties still exist:
and to devise means for their removal
is one of the objects of this convention.
It gives us very great pleasure to an
nounce the fact that
THE NORTH CAROLINA SYNOD
has wisely determined to take her place
again in our General Synod. After
standing alone long enough to calmly
survey the field and act with wise dis
cretion, she has decided that her highest
interests and ours are one ; and she is
here, in her representatives, to identify
herself with us in all that we may con
sider conducive to the best interest of
our Southern church.
We rejoice greatly at. this, because It
will to a great extent enlarge our in
fluence and increase our efficiency for
good.
But while this old and influential
synod thus encourages us, the
SYNOD OF MISSISSIPPI
has, owing to some misunderstanding,
grown restless and dissatisfied, and a
feeling of alienation has arisen which
has prompted the brethren of that
synod to withdraw its connection with
us. We have done all in our power to
prevent so undesirable an event, and
we herewith submit a correspondence
from that synod for your earnest and
Erompt consideration. We mny.it is
oped, by proper attention to this mat
ter, prevent a final separation, which we
are satisfied must result in nothing but
injury to both them and us.
Matters of the very greatest moment
to us in connection with our

report wmcn win oe urougnt teiore
you by the proper committee In con
nection with his leport he Informs ns
that the committee have been very
much crippled in their efforts to accom-
Slish something by the fact that the
istrict synods employ all their own
funds except the per capita assessments,
and by some of our largest congrega
tions failing to use the committee as a
medium for disbursing their foreign
missionary - collections. Ami he tgg-r
gests the propriety U either I the em
ployment of a foreign missionary Fof
our own or the discontinuance of the
central committee.
Your attention is invited to a careful
consideration of this very important
matter. , - ... . , .
And now, dear brethren, in return
ing the high and responsible trust which
your partiality two years ago entrust
ed to my hands, let me say that I have
watched the interests of our general
synod with an anxious heart. How to
cultivate our extensive field so as not to
lose much of our material beyond all
redemption is the great question that
forces itself upon us. What plans to
adopt, what measures to employ, and.
how to strengthen our hands, arQ ques
tions that are agitating our thinking
men all over the church.
Let us address , ourselves to these
grave subjects with all the grace we
can command, and in the fear of God
let us work for his glory.
After the delivery of the president's
report the Synod proceeded to the elec
tion of officers for the ensuing term,
which resulted as follows:
President Rev. J. J. Scherer, of Ma
rion, Va.
Secretary Rev. W. xG. Schaeffer, of
Richmond, Va.
Treasurer Capt W. A. Barrier of
Charlotte, N". C.
Service was then conducted by Revs.
L. G. M. Miller, Dr. J. J. Scherer, W. C.
Schaeffer, and J.-J. Butler, Mr. Butler
delivering an introductory sermon, after
which communion was administered.
The Synod then adjourned.
After graduation he; removed to Co-r
Iumbusicity, Texas was the means of

and put into successful operation, and
was for 10 or 12 years president of it
Thence he removed to his present place

dition, enjoys a good. name, is , blessed

future before it The General Synod
