An overture from the Pres bytery of Mecklenburg waa also read in quiring whether an alternate appointed by a church session could take a seat as member of Presbytery, when the principal had reported present and enrolled, but had then absented himself. It was referred to the committee op Bills and Overtures. Rev. Dr. Wilson announced that Rev. Dr. Wood, of 8tatesville, would preach to night Tbe Report of the Trustees of Union Theological Seminary was read and refer red to the committee. This institution is under the" control of tbe Synod of North Carolina in conjunction with the Synod of Virginia. The report presented the work of the past year and the present condition, aod was hopeful and encouraging. A sup plemental report stated the resignation of Rev. Dr. Dabney, the election of other professor, aod the present outlook. The matter will be brought prominently before the Synod during itssession. Rev. W. .W. Moore, of the Synod of Kentucky, and now an assistant instructor in Union Seminary, was invited to a seat as a corresponding member and was receiv ed by a standing vote of the Synod. The reports of the Trustees and of the Treasurer of Synod were received and ap propriately referred! Orders of the day were taken for the re ports of the various Synodical Agents. . The msjor part of the morning session was taken up with the report of the com mittee on the Standing Rules of Synod. Tbe revision was approved, and tbe recom mendations of the committee, aftr amend ment and discussion, were adopted. These require the election of a Stated Clerk and of Synodical Agents every three years. Quite a discussion sprang op on the effect of this action, whether the terms of office were not thereby vaca ted, and after some action arid reconsideration a committee was appointed to draft a minute covering tbe matter in -question. The committee on Statistical Reports re ported In part, announcing the death du ring the year of Rev. T. P. Johnston and Rev. F. P. Harrell. of the Presbytery of Concord; of Rev. R A. Wailea of the Presbytery . of Orange, and Rev. W. M. McGilvary, of the Presbytery of Mecklenr burg.' " The following committee were ap pointed to draft suitable miniates touching the death, of these minister: On the Rev. R A. Wailes Rev. J. N. H. Sammerell and Robt C. Rankin. On the Rev. .W. M. McGilvary Rev. W. S. Lacy and Col.' John . Brown. " On the Eev.'P P. Harrell Rev. J. Ramsay and D. W. Lowrance. On the ReyHT..Pr, Johnstoa Rev. S. F. Rockwell, Dv, D.anrj R. Aj J&iox. . It was made the.order of the day to hear Major Roberi Bihghain this "evening after public worship,' concerning the i interests of Davidson College.- : , - Winston was chosen, ..after a . handsome little speech from the Moderator nomi nating this point, as the place for holding the' next meeting of Synod. Twelve hu&dred copies of the Minutes of the" current session of Synod were ordered to be published.- The Synod also approved the docket as prepared by tL "vated Clerk and mailed to the ministers and churches and ordered the preparation . of such docket for succeeding meetings of Synod, and that the expenses be payed by the Treasurer. Rev. J. -Rumple, O. D.: was chosen Synodical Agent of Education, in place of Rev. L. McKmnon, removed' from, the Sypod. Dr. Rumple was requested to pre pare a report on this subject. In the afternoon, Rev. L. C. Vass, the Synodical Agent of Sabbath Schools, made an interesting report on this subject. - A' resume of the work of the year indicates in every particular gratifying increase, both in interest and work accomplished. Mr. Vass -reported 154 schools, with 1,841 teachers and 10.418 scholars; 342 scholars have been received into the Church. The contributions for school purposes, were for school,purposes $ 2,373, and for benev olence $1,269. This work of the schools of the Church awakened much interest. On the subject, Rev. Roger Martin, of Shoe Heel, made extended and earnest re marks, approving the resolutions, urging the attendance of older people with their children, and the critical and spiritual study of the Scriptures, and commending the holding of Presbyterian Sunday School Conventions. Rev. J. W. Primrose also made an inter esting address on the subject. Remarks were also made by Rev. Messrs. Evans, Winn, Rev. Dr. Rockwell and others. The trend of discussion was in the direction of stricter parental training and diligent con trol. After discussion, the resolutions were adopted. It was ordered that tbe Stated clerk have the earlier records of the Synod copied; the original records then to be deposited for safe keeping in the archives of the Presby terian Historical Society. Synod receded from business till after public worship in the evening. After divine service, Major Robert Bing ham, Superintendent of the Bingham School, made an address, presenting speci ally the Davidson College Improvement Society, but treating, with exceeding naivete, greatly enjoyed by the Synod and the audi ence present, with" much force and origi nality and in striking and sententious man-' ner, of the need of higher culture, and the special advantages and necessities, of Davidson College- His scriptural allusions and quotations often were telling, andwerjs evidently keenly relished by the Synod. Major Bingham is a man of cosmopolitan views; aggressive, energetic broad and lib eral. His address was listened to attentive ly to the very close, and was backed by large experience and wldebb"-? .tion. His work for education in the Slate, apart from his own private enterprise (of such marked success) in normal schools, teachers' institutes, and educational associations, gave his opinion great weight. - His com mendation of Davidson College as a Pres byterian institution of high merit was in telligent and sincere. He claimed for it a position not equalled by any denomination al institution south of the Potomac. An immediate effort was made in behalf of the Society, and nearly four hundred dollars at once raised. Synod ad journed till to-day,at 9.30 A.M., and was closed -with prayer by Rev. D. D. McBryde.

Died, at Elizabethtown, Friday, 9th November, 188 Db. JAMES S. ROBINSON, eldest son of tbe late Dr. H. H. Robinson. , Forty-five years ago, in Bladen county, the sun roseon the infant face of James S Robjnson ; a few days since that same sun set on the grave of his manly form. From infancy sto childhood, from boyhood to manhood, amid joys and sor rows, in health and in sickness, in life and in death, Dr. James S. Robinson was hated by none, was respected by all, and . was loved by many. Nor was it a common love, confined to brothers who adored him, and a sister and wife who idol ized him ; but many loved him as few -love strangers. Graduated from. two medical colleges of repu tation, engaged from the first in a-large practice, Dr. Robinson was a physician of unusual ability. He inherited from his family, among whom were and are so many distinguished physicians, medi cal taient 01 a nign order, ana ne cultivated suo- cnmfnllv nature's ffift. Whether in the hospital, administering to the torn ana mangiea limns or ittnteaerate soldiers, ry in Ha nnmVtlo rtrifto era o rlnn1inAnnAn Phoeltw'a or in the humble cottage attending upon Charity's sick, or in the bed-chamber of wealth, earning his professional fee, Dr. Robinson was that rarest of men, the same. Unselfish to a fault, charitable beyond human, generous in excess of his means, the subject of this indifferent tribute to his memory early won and to the last retained more of love and less of enmity than any ever known by the writer. Of him friends may well realize, that the God, who made such a man, has claimed him for His own. All the sad and long day on which his remains lay in nis nome. cauers or every age, irom umia maiden to more composed matron, from fright ened youth to saddened and' sorrowed old age, paid him respect by a tearful look at him they loved him bo well. Many an historic hero has died over whose grave fewer tears were shed. The river bank, hi? native Cape Fear, along whose edges he had played in boyhood and whose waters had mingled its murmurs with his happy laugh bf "auld lang syne," was thronged with people of all conditions and color, who had followed the coffin bf their friend to the steamer "North State," which bore his remains to Wil mington, where ethers of his kindred had pre ceded htm to Oakdale Cemetery. The high esteem in which the departed was held in Wilmington, where he had formerly prac ticed medicine, was manifestly shown by the large concourse of people who followed him to his grave. In Wilmington he was buried, last Sabbath afternoon. The city, that gave him his bride, has given him a grave. But a few years ago, in Carolina's "City by the Sea," he stood at the matrimonial altar; to-day, in his windiDg sheet, he reposes in her Cemetery. The beautf . ful affection and faithful nursing of him, in his last .sickness, by that former bride have proved her well worthy to be his present grief stricken widow. May the God, who has reoeived the one, in His Own good time, aecept the other; and may they and their kindred yet meet in that Heavenly home, where deaths and partings are no visitors, is the sincere tope of One Who Loved Hiar.
