The MajorHy Report Adopted by the Assembly by the Orer--whelmlngr Tote of 137 to 13 The Day Consumed In the Dis cussion. - ', -1 Augusta Chronicle, 27th. - After consinerablc debate, , Dr. Woodrow was given fifteen minutes to conclude the time left by him in his first speech. V Tr. Woodrpw a ao not aesire to force myself upon the Assembly. I recognize the courtesy of the Assem bly in allowing me tae time tney have. : But I warn you that if there is wrong done now by; the adoption of this majority report it is not brought about by me. ; It is not only an arraignment of myselt but a-con clemnation on the charge of heresy, of half of the Synods of South Caro lina, a large pbnionof the Presby teries in (Georgia, Aiaoama ana else where, and these are condemned as unfit to teach or distribute the boun ties of this church. With regard to the matter of deliverance and its et feet, the supposed effect is that it would help to condemn as guilty a person now on trial in a lower court. It has been said that this Assembly can have po knowledge Of a trial un less it comes properly before the court upon official record. This re minds me of that other claim, that it was not the church, but teachers of the church, erred in regard to sci ence; ana that tnis question or evo lution would have been settled long ago, but the opinions of the church bad been disregarded. 1 The opinion of the church has never been ex pressed so that it could be authorita tively understood You have been told that the will of the South Caro- ina Synod has been stp aside by me. inis . is a mistaKe. A resolution was Drougnp in tnat would have deprived the person be- fore you of his just rights, but though the majority were against him, they refused to do that. Any thing that comes from a self-constituted authority will never be bowed to by me. A deliverance sucn as that vou now propose has no legal effect, and is not to be obeyed by any one who believes it is in opposition to the word of God. To such it would be devoid of the semblance or au thority.i 80 far as. I have heard, I have not heard a fair or accurate statement of my views. Pr, Hollifield said: '.woodrow says he had been for' years in search of something to tell him what Adam was made of." and added "here is a Bible that will tell him. ' Now, I knew all the Bible said before he was born, laughter and I believe it, too. believe that Adam was made of dust, and Eve was made of a rib from Adam's side. l believe an that, and I know itj Anything in the B ble is not only a matter of faith but knowledge with me; and yet I am held up here as the butt of jokes and anecdotes.' It has been my lot to oe misrepresenrea always unintentionally,-.of course. As to evolution, it is a matter of absolute indifference. I care nothing tor it. What is evolution? i At best it is uothing but a hypothesis, a theory, conducted altogether louteide of the Word of God. .Like chemistry or astronomy, it is a science not in the Word of God, but if there is a single word of God that isjeontrary to it, that is enough to condemn it with me. If this Assembly should pro pose to make any deliverance on evo lution, I should oppose it as strongly as any member of this body. The question before us is, shall this As sembly inject into the Word of God something that is not there. You are asked to pre scribe the time occu pied by God in the creation of man, . a a ma when uoa.nas notjioia you. xne Bible sayB that God created, man of dust, but it doesn't say how long he was m doing it, and you are adding your own petty notions 10 nis ever glorious and jtrue word. You will be violating the sacred trust imposed in you. You wiJl be saying what He has not authorized you to say, speaK- - t . a. TTT TT 11 ing in ills name wnac ne nimseu has not spoken or autnorizea you to speak. I beseech you, therefore, not for my sake, but that you may be true servants of the High God, that you do not drive away those who cannot subscribe to ( such a declara tion. . There is nothing in the Bible that will authorize f you to say the; creation was "immediate,' . ana it you do so, you go in the face of the Word ot uoa. DR. ARMSTRONG j CONCLUDES. ' Dr. Armstrong, chairman of the committee making the majority re port, now proceeded, to close the dis cussion, it being determined that there should be no discussion by the members of the Asaembty outside of the committee. . He began with a vindication of his friend. Dr. Hoge, whom Dr. Palmer had said agreed with Dr. Woodrow that the theory of evolution was not onnosed to the teachings of the Bi V ble. He had a letter from the Doa- tor read, in which he said: "I fully agree with you on all the grounds in your book," and, said Dr. Arm strong, I don't suppose anybody will accuse me of arguing with Dr. Woodrow. There may be hay on somebody's horns, but it is not on mine. Laughter f He then read from Professor Huxley's New York lecture to show that the statement of the theory of evolution was not dif ferent from that entertained by the amantists. " l ; In my first speech T prepared to mil at auction that evolute calf trom th organic dusti of that Jersey cow. It was to show that you could not reconcile the evolution 01 the man with the declarations of the Bi ble. Organic dust is partly decayed nrcamc matter. Jtvoiuuon out ot organic dust is impossible. The liv ing ape cannot be called organic dust. You must nave lire. ; There has been no attack on our main position as to the competency authority of this body to issue a de liverance, and that the interprets tion of our standards must be in their historical sense ; and that in terpreted in their ; historical sense thev do- controvert this system of evolution. - The point on which you feel most difficulty is that the case is already before different courts of this churcn. uut Deiore tnis case was brought in lower courts it was in the different Presbyteries, and they sent their overtures to us first. There is a difference of opinion and they ask us to interpret our standards. We ara oerfectlv competent to do so. Suppose we wait till these Synods or Jrresoytenes signuy- ineir rulings, won't it have its moral effect upon this body when it . comes before us? Don t let that argument of prejudice mnuence you to refuse a decision here. There are three papers before you The report of the minority is iu auusrance mac we give no an swer. That isn t a fair answer. It isn't what the. have a right to. In the other minority report the , first difference is that we send our views iq the form of a pastoral letter. Sees ond. It doesn't want an answer be cause it will prejudice the case below. This pastroral letter is to contain, 1. A recognition of the alarm and uneasiness pervading the church on account of the evolution discussion, and that this alarm and eneasiaess are not unfounded. 2. A reiteration of our loyalty to ouir symbjls as the correct interpre tation of the Holy SSsripture, and a determination to defend them against any interpretation which would mar their historic sense or contradict any traditional doctrine of our faith. This paper says just as much as the paper of the majority, but when I speak on a subject in -which I have convictions, I want to use language that everybody can understand. Qur's is in plain lan guage. I believe it is the purpose of this Assembly to give an answer to these overtures. I deprecate this doctrine because it impugns the in spiration of the Word of XJod. After considerable debate as to the form in which this question was be fore the house, both minority reports were put to a vote and lost, and the majority report was adopted on a call of the yeas and nays by the over whelming vote of 137 to 13. The 13 voting no, were Re vs William Fiinn, T Harrison, V H Henderson, James Woodrow, G H Mourning, F L Thompson, H Ginder, N J Holmes, J B Jennings,R H Wardlaw,TE8mith, R J Vidal, George A McOall. The majority report adopted is as fol lovs: . To the several overtures on the sub ject of the evolution of man sent up by the Presbyteries the General Assembly returns answers as fol lows: The Church remains at this time sincerely convinced that the Scrip-, tures, as truly and authoritatively expounded in our "Confession of Faith" and Catechisms, teach that Adam and Eve were created, body and soul, by immediate acts of Al mighty Power, thereby preserving a P rfect race unity. That Adam's body was directly fashioned by Almighty God, without prtny natural animal parentage of any kind, out of matter previously crea ted of nothing. ' And that any doctrine at variance therewith is a dangerous error, inas much as by the methods of interpret ing Scripture it must demand, and in consequences which by fair implica tion it will involve, it will lead to the denial of doctrines fundamental to the faith. Signed George D Arm strong, R K Smoot, W F Junkin, G R Strickler, L. C Vass. A N Hollifield, M Van Leon, R B Fulton, O N Ken nedy. ' . ' The Assembly then adjourned and the evening session was devotod to a discussion of foreign missions. - HQLIMAIV AS A DICTION AH Y WORD. A Snggested'tAddlitoa to the Ifext Edition of Webster's Diction- ary. Washington, May 26. Judge HoK man's name will get into Webster's Dictionary, , the Post says, if he doesn't look out. Many of the reck less R publican papers are inclined to use the new verb, "to Holmanise," and they assert that the watchful member from Indiana is " Hoi man -ising legislation." The fact is, that the charge is true. He keeps econo mising wherever he can in the most relentless fashion. In reporting the ap propriation bill from his committee he lo.pp.ed off z2o Government employes. If he keeps it up the dictionary will be amended in the next edition thus: HOLMAN, . Frugality, retrenchs ment, inclination to cut down ex penses, and dispense with sinecures. uuLiMAJN lot, v. To economise, to retrench any way, whether you can or not, to protect the treasury against all comers. HOLMANISTIC, adj. Tendency to Holmanise: severe economical bias. HOLMANOMICALLY. adv. In a Hol'aaoistic manner, after the fash ion of Holmanisers. And probably he can stand it: and perhaps the treasury can stand it if the Republican party can stand it. Curious Replies. An Arizona editor recently sent postal cards to all the prominent cit izens of the place requesting them to give an answer to the question : Why are you an honest man f Some of the replies which he publishes are curious. One Answers: "It must be because of my durned cussedness, I always did like to be different from other people." Another says he is honest because he ' never held any public office: Another indignantly answers: "What d'ye take me for -an angel f" Another, sarcastically remarks, "I suppose you're going to start a museum, and are looking for freaks. Well, count me out I'm not one." Another, a professional labor agitator, wrote in bloodied ink, on a postal card: "What are ye givin' us?" While the editor of the opposition paper volunteered the an swer that ne scorned to lay bare the palpitating mainspring of a noble and honest soul at tne request or a dis honest reptile and political parasite. The editor is so well pleased with the results of his inquiry that he intends soon to ask for answers to the ques tion : What do you take for a cold ? Winchester Election. Winchester, Va , May 28.

Thomas Bowman, an insane man in jail at Statesvilie, has been very much interested in the Superior Uourt, and has been holding a court of his own nearly ever since it met.

Mr. Henry Brookbank bad a horse killed by lightning and his barn unroofed by the same storm. On last Wednesday night Capt. D. T. Crouee, for many years the efficient and faithful instructor of the Salem Cornet Band,celebrated his fiftieth birthday, and was the recipi ent of a beautiful gold-headed cane and a pair of gold-rimmed eyeglasses, given to him by the band as a token of their esteem. Goldsboro Messenger: We learn from Mr. B. E Smith, the obliging express agent that the shipments of strawberries this season from here foot up 22 500 quarts. For the in formation of certain parties, we deem it proper to state that the grounds and magnificent graded school build ing are the school property of Golds boro township, and that Goldsboro has much cause to feel proud of its ownership. It would be a credit to any city. The property was sold to the board of school trustees by tne former owners for $10,000, only about half its value, which included three years free rent. Payment was made in school bonds running ten years, and bearing only 7 per cent interest. The property and spacious grounds are well worth $20,000. Statesvilie Landmark: We are asked to say that a meeting of the voters of the town of Statesvilie will be held at the court house tomorrow evening at 8 o'clock, to consider the matter of tne subscription ot $tu,uuu to the extension of the projected Roanoke and Southern railroad.
