For Information apply to JOHN CHILD, CONVENTION ADJOURNED. GRKCENSBOH-O THE NEXT PI.ACK Of MKBTINU. The Kant ttenalnn or the Kplncopal Convention BnslneHs Conclud ed and Adjourned Sine Die-Personal Motes. The afternoon session of the second day of the Protestent Episcopal conven tion for the diocese of North Carolina, was called to order yesterday by Dr. M. M. Marshall, the president. The committee appointed to devise ways and means for enlarging the Epis copal fund reported that they deemed it inexpedient to undertake to enlarge the fund at this time, but that if the conven tion thought otherwise the committee recommended that an agent be appointed to visit the parishes of the diocese for that purpose. The report of the com mittee was accepted. Bishop Lyman in the chair announced the next thing in order to be the question of "Woman's Rights." The resolution ollcred by Cant. T. W. Patton, of Trinity church, Asheville, at the morning session, was read. The resolution was that each parish in the diocese be allowed to say for itself whether women should participate in parochial meetings and vote. Mr. John Wilkes, ol Charlotte, moved that tbe resolution of Captain Patton be referred to the committee on canons, sav ing that the fundamental law of tbe con vention provided that no canon should be changed without being first referred to that committee. Considerable discus sion followed, and later, in order to bring the question siiuarelv before the convention for a vote, Mr. Wilkes intro duced unother resolution, "Thatthiscon rcntion concurs in the decision of the committee on canons." This decision of the committee was that women be not allowed to participate in or vote at the parish meetings. Mr. J. B. Ilatchelor of Raleigh, was in the midst of an earnest speech in opposi tion to Mr. Wilkes' resolution, when the hour of live o'clock arrived, at which time Rev. Theodore Holcombe, of New Vork, had been requested to address the convention. Mr. Holcembe win introduced by Bishop Lymuu. lie is the financial secre tary of the cleiiivmun's relirine fund so- ciety, with headquarters in New York. Mr. lloicombe explained the o meet ol the society to be the raising of a perma nent bind, the interest ol which was to be expended in the maintenance of aired clergymen. The plan of oiiernlion is this: Any clergyman can become a mem ber by paying an initiation I'te of $10. and $12 annually, and when he has ar rived at the age ot GO, he will lie entitled to an annuity, theamotintof which shall be determined by the nuinlicr of years during which be has hern u menilicr ol the society, More attaining the ace ol 60 years. The fund already amounts to $60,000, and it is expected to be made to reach several millions. At the conclusion of the address, n resolution was adopted endorsing the principles and methods ot the society. uisuop Lyman commended it in the bign ess terms. The unfinished business, that of the status of women in parochial meetings, was taxen up, and Mr. Uatchelor con tinued his remarks in opposition to Mr. Wilkes' resolution. Cnpt. T. W. Patton also made another strong appeal for the defeat of the reso lution, at the conclusion of which a vote of the convention by orders wascalled for. 1 lie secretary called tbe roll, aud when the result was announced it was found that Mr. Wilkes' resolution was lost, the vote ot the clergy stundine 19 lor the resolution and 11 against, and the vote of the parishes standing 7 for and 10 against the resolution. The law o the convention is that in a vote bv orders both must agree in order to reach a de cision. 1 he practical result is that the canon remains statu quo. . i-apt. ratton asked that his resolution introduced at Tarboro ayear ago, which was reported upon adversely, be again relerred to the committee on canous, to oe acted upon by them in accordance with the action of this convention iust recorded. The convention then ad;ourued to meet this morning at 9:30 o clock. Bishop Lyman confirmed a class of 14 at the 8 o'clock service last night. THIRD DAY MORNING SESSION. The opening service of the Episcopal convention this morning consisted in rending the lituny, led by Rev. W. L. Mel lichamp. The convention was called to order by Bishop Lyman. Calling of the roll was dispensed with. Rev. McNcely OuBose read a telegram announcing the election, by the conven tion of Georgia.-in session at Savannah, of Dr. Theo. F. Guilor, vice chancellor of the university ol tlieSouth.to the bisjiop. ric ot ueorgia. The report from the Thompson or phanage at Charlotte, showed it to be in a propcrous condition. 1 he committee on new parishes recom mended Uiat Grace church in the moun tains, and St. lames church, Henderson vine, be admitted inta union with the convention. Bishop Lyman urged upon clergymen and laymen the duty of subscribing for 1 lie Churchman," ot New York, aud announcing that he had appointed Rev. A. H. Hunter, ot Kaleigh, as correspond' ent for the diocese for that paper. (in motion ol Mr. I'. 1 . Haywood, of Kaleigh, a committee consisting of three clergymen aud two laymen was ap pointed to suggest an appropriate ser vice in commemoration of the ordina tion of Bishop Lyman to the priesthood in 1841. The committee appointed to draft res olutions upon the death of W. E. Ander son, made an appropriate report. invitations were extended irom Christ church, Rnkigh, and St. Barnabas church, Greensboro, for the convention to meet with them next year. Raleigh vir tually withdrew her claims in luvor of Oreenslioro, nnd the convention will meet in the latter city on the 18th dayofMay, IB'.!. Rev. G. P. Hcbbnrdl offered a resolu lion to dc reierrea to committee on canons, providing that where the words "male and "tcmule occur in the canon, "men and boys" and "women aud girls" oe substituted. On motion of Re. P. J. Murdoch the board of fellows of Ravcnscroft were au thorized in their discretion to repay to Key. ur. Huel the amount ot money ad vanced by him in the construction of Shoneberger hall in Asheville. The following committees were elected by the convention: Standing committee Revs, M, M, Marshall, R. B.

Dr. Jnrvis Buxton introduced a resolu tion of sympathy for Dr. Buel in his pres ent illness, and iu the loss of his most est timable wife. The resolution offered by Judge Phillips at yesterday's session, appropriating $500 out of the general missionary fund to aid in securing a rector for Chapel Hill parish, was amended so as to read "at the rate ot $500 annually" and passed. A resolution of thanks to the clergy and citizens of Asheville for the hosoital- ity extended was passed by a rising vote. rcv. a. d. tiiintcr, irom committee on state ot the church, reported an annen. dix to report submitted vestcrdny, which snowea, among otner things, that the total contributions in the diocese for the past year were $45,298.21: value nf clitircli property in diocese. $.'147,440.00; number of church edifices, 110; number of rectories, 30; totul nuinlicr of com municants, 4,537.
