History orCnRinrCiu-HCH, IUr-Kiaa.
lb our short sketch of the history of
Christ Church, Raleigh, either by a slip of
tbe pea or by mistake of the printer, it
was stated that Dr. Freeman, on the ques
tion "whether it is proper for communi
cants to atU-nd or gire dancing parties,
&c," took the nflirmatit side. The coo
text shows so plainly that th Rev. Dr.
took tbs -wgativs side of tbs question,
tbat we would not trouble to correct the
error, except to add '.hat after the contro
versy between Dr. F.and tbe vestry closed J
t waa t ken up by the lata Rev. Dr. Jams
B. Buxton, of Fayetteville. Tli reply of
Hon. George E. Badger to him is on of
tli ablest controversial papers we bsve
ever read sn exceedingly strong, and 1 1
oar mind conclusive, defence of the liberty
of professing Christians ia engaging in
amusements, barm Iras ia themselves, and
only claimed to be wrong becsuas opposed
to the prejudice of soma good people.
AH acquainted with Raleigh society
know tbat tbs Vestry cams off practically
victorious, as at tbe present day few hesi

tbough some docliuo to engitge in tbe

We give warning beforehand tbat if

ths rules snd adont tbe resolution readins-1
tbat the State government of Louisiana
now administered py orders ..rrom tne
. . , .
Federal Courts, supported by tbe Federal
bayonets, such condition of thine being-
subversive of civil government and dan
gerotu to liberty, nnd requesting the
President to inlorm the House why the
Executive of ths United fitnlea Interfered
in the affairs of that Statu, 'giving all the
facts. Also to give all iulermstion on
that subject relative to tbe conduct of E,
II. Durell, United Stat Judgf there, so
tbat the House may determine what step,
if any, ought to bs taken ia consequencs
f-of such interference in the political affair
of Louisiana.
Stevenson, of Ohio, iskitd Cox to omit
the preamble. Cox consented to tbat
and to tbe insertion of the words " If not
incompatible with the public interests,"
Aldridue, ol w isconsin, asked Cox not
to insert these words ;- there could be an
such thing as "incompatibility with the
public interest in.u,atUus of that kind.
Congress sas entitled lo know by what
right or sutliority tbe President interfered
ia the civil government of a State. " .
Cox aaid he bad Inserted these words
an as to bavs ths resolution adopted
ithout any partiaan or accrimonion dis
cussion, no only wanted tne facta to
ocnie out and alt tbe basis for the Presi
dent's action in that most important mat
ter.. . - '
fivolier. of LouiaiaDR. denied that the
President had interfered in anyway in the
Louisiana matters, except to wder th
execution' of the mandates of tlie United
States Court
Cox declined to take ths statement of
Bypheror of the newspapers in the mat
tor.
Br plu r said I will furnish the proof of
it. -. '
Cox The gentleman cannot apeak for
the President, I want tbe information
from the President.
Uintcham. of Ohio, sugirieted to Cox to
strikeout the allusion to Judge Durrell, as
the information which the President would
iumish would necessarily cover the point.
Cox said hs did not intend to amend
the resolution any further. .
ScofHeid, of Penn., asked Cox to omit
the closing words of His resolution "so
that the House may judge, dec,"' which
be thought implied tbat the House would
do something, perhaps, ollenslve.
Cox declined to accede to tlie sugges-
