Minutes of yesterday read and ap
proved. ;
UNFINISHED .BUSINESS.
The report of the Committee on the
Home and Foreign Journal, with the
substitute providing for its suspension
and the distribution of matter intended
for it- among weekly denominational
papers, was taken up.
Dr. Sumner, of Ala., was in favor of
the continuance of the publication of
paper, if it could be done, under new
auspice (properly and- efficiently.
Rev. Mr. Worrell withdrew-;the sub
stitute and the report was unanimously
adopted. Provides for the employment
of a competent Editor, that the Journal
be printed on book paper, and that it
be more generally gratuitously distrib
uted.!" t ... . , ;. ".':.. ':;:' .
Dr. Pritchard read a cable dispatch'
from Rev. Dr. Yates, Missionary to
China, dated Paris, France, informing-
the Convention that he was well anil
had regained the power of speech lost
some time since while preaching, v
The report of the Committee on Col
ored Missions, was, presented by the
chairman and read.
:.' On a motion to' adopt, Dr. Sydnor ol
Ya., said the report was one of the
greatest importance, deserving especial
consideration from tuts body, arid mov
ed a proper referer.ee to a committee.
A call for the. previous question was
voted down.
Dr. Sumner, of Aia., was in favor of
the adoption of the report, and in his
remarks paid a haudsorne tribute to the
spirit and enterprise of colored South
ern members in the great cause of For
eign Missions. 1 '"-:. -
Dr. Jeter wished more time for the
consideration of the subject. He fully
realized 'its creat importance, and ad
vocated the adoption of some .-such
measures as those proposed.
SPECIAL. ORDEK.
The report of the Committee on the
letter from Texas, asking for biennial
sessions of the Convention, was read. It
recommends the present mode of anuu
al sessions. .
Dr. Jeter, of moved to amend
the report by inserting " biennial ses
siops.' Rev. Mr. Calloway and Gen. Fields,
of Ya., favored the report oi the Cora
mittee." - j
Dr. Henderson,, of Alabama! and Mr.
Crane, of Md:, favored the amendment.
This question pending, .the liour of 1 1
having arrived, the .
SAA15ATII SCHOOi; INTEREST
was taken up for discussion. Dr. Calloway,,-'
presented the report of tlic
Finance Committee of the Sunday.
School Board. Recommends that the
debts be liquidated and that the con
tributions of the Sunday Schools them
selves be relied on in the future for the
prosecution. of the work.
Dr. Biantly, of Mo., moved that the
Sunday School Board be abolished and
the work referred to the''.-different
States, remarking that the necessity
which caused the formation of that
Board no longer existed. Messrs.
Thoinas, Lewis, of N. C, and Mills
raised points of order to the effect that,
this motion -could' not b? considered
until the reception of the report of the
Sunday School Committee. Overruled.
Rev. Mr. Landrum, of South Carolina,
addressed the Convention in opposition
to Dr. Brantley's motion. The necessi
ty for the Board exists,he said, in as full
force now as during the war. It was
and should remain a power in the land.
The instilling of Baptist sentiment
among the children ot the land and
their elcmQritary education was certain
ly one -of the most important objects of
the Convention. '
Rev. Mr. DeYotie presented and read
the report of the Committee on the
future plans of "the : Sundav School
Board. (Urge;, its great importance and
recommends that it be continued and
fostered.) "
Dr. Tiehenor, of Alabama, oppjs'ed
the abolishment of the Board .in'uL for
ce h at length. To .offset -"the
influences of infidelity and scepticism
which wi! I creep, into secular schools,
under the garb of science, (the i'titro-
duetion cf; religious influences into pub
lic schools, supported by general taxa
tion, being ' necessan'.y interdicted,) it
behooves .the great Baptist . family to
enter with redoubled Zeal into the Sab
bath School work.
Rev. J. R. Graves, of Tennessee, not
being able to speak in consequence of
a temporary paralysis of the vocal or
gaus, presented, through Rev. Mr. Lam
drum, a written address, stating that if
the Sunday School board was abolished
the material received from the Sunday
School Union would be returned.
Rev. Eh Dodson, of North Carolina,
opposed the motion of Dr. Biantly, and .
stated that the abolition of the Sunday
School Board would be the virtual disso
lution ot the Convention; he compared
the proposed ' action to that of" a far
mer .who, as preliminary to .planting,
would throw away his plows and uten
sils. :..:..'.
-v Dr. J. W. M. Willnim3,H)f Maryland,
fcaid that the Sabbath School children
of each paster should be considered, as
they are the most important portion of
his flock ; if the pn3tor was disqualified
for duty in the Sabbath School depart
mentiie;was also upfit for the pulpit. j
He, howevcry opposed the continuance
Tjf the board, unless it could be main
tained on a healthy, basis.
Dr. J. A. Broaddns, of South Caro
lina, thought the board a necessity, as
well as State, organizations, which were
equally auvisauie.
A Rev. Mr. IIaygood advocated the dis
solution of the Board m . crder to give
the 171 .Missionaries iu the. Domestic
Mission Board means to work' in a better
manner,, untrammelled. ,
DK'RVantl again atlvocated' Separate

a Sunday school agent, and in the aggrc-

The famous horse-Uarverand mang
ier, Bob Hutchins, still lives, aiid ' so
dots the team of grey horses wc men
tioned the1 other day, but it appears
they have become so poor und dilapi
dated through his inhuman treatment
that they are 'hardly able to leave their
rookery of a stable, and in all probabil
ity, cne week more, and they will leave
it only to become food for buzzards,
and we must say poor food, and little
of it at that. Tt is said the buzzards
are already roosting on his stable, wait
ing', patiently for the victims of this
black and inhuman monster. We are
indeed sorry there is no law to 7 reach
this ejase, and wc sincerely hope Mr.
Churqhill will be ' able to get his 7 bill
through the next Legislature for the
establishment of "securities for the pre
vention of cruelty on animals," and that
hp may live to enforce it at least in tins
case. " - '"' . .1

The Decision of the Supreme Court
' in the Elsie Cotton Cases.
Washington, May 11.
The decision of the Suprwne Court
in the Elgie cotton cases, reprcgented -by
John A. Grew and 'Mr. CJorwir.,
st inds noyf a fioaU ty : as jto . &H; cases in
which pardon had been granted or m -nesty
tak'en. The on) j qriesUon ' in t
will be the' su!)Sthiife tof tHe Morrill
amendment reported by the Tlmise Ju
diciary Uommittte and adopted by the
House, by a very large inajotity.' It ilf
be argued by tlie Conference Committee,
that the effect of the MoritH -amend-
ment is toiock up In the Treasury the
amounts for which 'judgment have
been' entered in the courts under the
Superior Court decision. .
The effect of the substitute from the
House will be . to pay these judgments,
and to require the Secretary of the
Treasury, under rules, to adjudicate the
claims. for cotton seized after-June 1st,
1865. In case no action is taken by the
Conference Committee, both the Mot
rin amendment 'and the House substi
tute will' fail, and the Supreme Court
decisjou fixes the status of claimants as
to all the cotton seized before Jane 1st,
1865. All other cases stand as before,
The -fund to pay these claims is in
the Treasury, and held in trust for the
claimants. It amounts to $25,000,000,
ot which ten million is barred by the
statute of limitation., , .
Judge Sachrane, of! Ga., Col. Capors,
of Savannah, and other attorneys are
here actively working for their clients.
There is a crisis in these affairs, which
is attracting attention from all sections
Of the country.

two hours' session to day. The Senate
committee withdrew the Morrill amend
ment, but the House committee persist
