Presbyterians Meet in Winston and Moid Profitable Session. The Presbyterian Synod of North Carolina was in tossion at Winston Salem lat week. It was an able body and much business connected with the welfare of the Uenomlnatioa was transacted. Tbe choice of Wilmington as the next meeting place, the resolution if Rev. Dr. Morton seeking to stem the tide of Sabbath desecration and the forcible speech of Hr. Henry, Louis Smith in the interest of Davidson College, followed by tbe solemn cele bration of the Lord's Supper, were the principal features of the session Thursday. There was no afternoon I Eesslon. in order to permit tbe com j mittees to get to work. After devo J tional exercise's Moderator Vardel! I called the Synod to order. Among j other preliminary business, the re ' part of the condition of Union Semi i nary , was read and referred. ! A. report from the faculty of Union Seminary 'stated that a desire of t-ev j tral members of the senior :ia.i'f j the Seminarj- to make a canvass in j the interest of securing candidate ! for the ministry was refused, because ! o fthe time which would necessarily be taken from studies, and also be jiause it was thought that more ma i ture minds should be engaged in tlri I work. The . faculty requested Synod 1 to appoint tome agent or agents, well I qualified." to visit schools and acade- mies in this interest. Referred. ! OVERTURES. Art overture from Fayetteviile I'res ; bytcrany was read asking that tbe ' time of meeting of Synod be changed i from Tuesday to" Thursday" running through Sunday into the next week, as ; tending to prevent the usual haste : and confusion at the end of the ses i sions as at present. An' overture from Mecklenburg ' Presbytery asked Synod tfi readjust ' as far as possible its system of col 1 lections to conform t6 General As i .S'-mbly's system of collections. An overture fro mthe same I'resby i terv asked for the erection of a new ; Pr esbytery to be called King's Moun ! tain i'resbytery out of Meeklenlmrg, including the counties of Gaston. Lin I coin, Cleveland. Rutherford and Polk. The primlpal of the colored Indus-j-trial and Mschanicar Instittite at : North Wilkesbpro asked- for pcrmis I sion to sell an acre of land belonging i to jhe institution. ; N'EXT MEETING AT WILMINGTON, i Synod then heard nominations for 'the next-meeting' place of Synod. As ! there was a long preliminary lull. Rev. : J. W. Moore, Jr.. caused a smila bj ! rt;markin? that If no other place wn-e ' available he would put in nomination I Kobe.

There is a ceaseless growth of novel fea tures upon our modern . civilization, snd the greatest wisdom is roo.iiin d to ndjnt these complex influences to the keeping .o fthe Sabbath. The duty Is a delicate one. The church, liter a ture helps, but olher aid must be in robed. It was therefore resolvid, in effect. i That Rvnod recomriiend each Presbvterv to appoint a committee on the Sabbath to en-operate with Svnod's committee. 2.
