Tbe beginning of tbe centennial oelebra eelebra oelebra
Hen or tbe Preaby terlaa general assembly
In Philadelphia, wh made memorable en
Wedneaday by a happy rennien et tbe
northern and Southern branches, which
came together ter tbe flrat time alnee they
parted oempany In the old Tabernaele
church, Philadelphia, Juit aa the war waa
breaking out, twenty-seven yeara age. The
presence of the president el the United
State added te the Intereat andalgnlflcance
or the oceaalon, and hla eloquent apeeeh
nrgtng a united ohureb Beamed te Teloe the
aentlmenta of a large portion of tbe com cem com
mlMlenara from the two assemblies.
MrraedMra. Cleveland spent the Interval
between their arrival and that of tbe South
ern Presbyterian! in resting at tbe resi
dence or Wiatrr Merris, Overbroek, where
the rennien took place. About 4 o'elook,
when word came that the expected guesta
had arrived at the station and were en their
way, a line of Northern Presbyterians was
formed en either aide of the drive from tbe
entrance of Its grounds te the house, and
aa the '200 Sentbernera appeared in alght
they were greeted with hearty eheera.;They
were white ribbons crossed with a bread
bar el blue. After a cordial meetlngbe
tween tbe two moderators, Revs. Drs. Bul Bul
eock and Thompson, led the way toward
the house. Tee united commissioners fell
In behind, and, marching te tbe house,
formed a great group in front et the deep
perrh, where the ceremonies were held.
Wlatar Merris, a whlte-halredjeld Friend,
apeke a few words of welcome, nrglng
harmony and geed fellowship, and then
Introduced President Cleveland.
TBTK PHKSIDENT'S fiPEKCII.
The president rpeke with much feeling
and in a voice that waa easily heard by
every one. He said :
1 am very roueh gratified by the op nor ner
tnnity here (lorded me te meet the repre
sentatives of tbe Presbyterian church.
Surely a man never should leae hla In.
terest In the welfare of the cbureh In whleb
he waa reared ; and yet I will net find
fault with any of you who deem It a aad
confession made when I acknowledge that
I must recall tbe day a new long past te find
my closest relations te the grand and noble
denomination wbleb you represent. I say
this beeauee these of us who Inherit fealty
te our church aa I did begin early te learn
these things which make us Presbyterlana
all tbe (In J a et our lives ; and tbua it la that
tbe rigors of our early teaching by which
we are grounded In our lasting allegtaneea
ate especially vivid and perhaps the beat
remembered. The attendance upon church
service ttree tlmea each Sunday, and upon
Sabbath school during neon Intermission
may be Irkseme enough te a boy of ten or
twelve yeara of age te be well fixed In hla
memory ; but X have never known a man
who regretted these tblega In tbe yeara of
his maturity. The She.ter Catechism,
though tboreugbly atudled and learned,
waa net, perhaps, at the time perfectly un
derstood ; and jet In tbe stern dutiea and
labera el alter life tbeae are net apt te be
tbe went cltlzsna who were early taught
What la tbe eblel end of man T '
Speaking of tbeie thlnga, and in the pres
ence of these hrre asteuibled, tbe most ten.
der tbeugbts crowd upon my mind all
conceited with FresbyterlanUin and ita
teachings. There are present wltn me new
memories el a kind and atteollenate father,
consecrated te tbe cause, and called te his
rest and hla reward iu the midday of hla
usefulness ; a sacred recolleetlon of tbe
prayers and pious love of a sainted mother
and a family circle hallowed and sanctified
by the spirit of Presbyterlanlsm.
1 certainly cannot but express tbe wish
and hope that the Presbyterian cburch will
always be at tbe front In every movement
which premisee tbe temporal aa well aa the
spiritual advancement et mankind. In the
turmc.ll and the buitle of overy day life few
men are foolish enough te ignore the practi
cal value te our people and our country et
the cbureh organizations established among
ua and the advantage et Christian example
and teaeblng.
The field Is vaet and the work sufficient
te engage the ellerta et every aect and de
nomination ; but 1 am inclined te believe
tbat tbe church which ia most tolerant and
conservative without lese et spiritual
strength will soonest find tbe way te tbe
hearts an d atteotlens et the people. While
we may be pardoned for Insisting that e..r
denomination Is tbe best, we may, I think,
aalely concede much that la geed te all
ether churches that seek te make men
bi Iter.
I am here te greet the delegntes of two
tene-el assemblies of -the Presbyterian
cburrb. One Is called "North" and the
ether 'Seuth." Tee object la tee deep and
Intricate for me, but I cannot help wonder
leg why thlssueuld be. These words, be
for aa they denote separation and estrange
ment, should be obsolete. In tbe ceunaela
of tbe nation and In the business et tbe
country they no longer mean reproach and
antagonism. Even theBeldlera who fenght
for tbe Nertb and for tbe Seuth are restored
te fraternity and unity. u.ma iraternuy ana
unity Is taught and enjoined by our church.
When shsll she herself be united with all
the added atreugth and nselulneaa tbat
harmony and union ensure ?
When the president spoke of tbe impres
sion made upon blm in boyhood by going
te eburch three tlmea en Sunday and learn.
Ing the Shorter Catechism there was a very
loud smile, but when a few mlnutea later
he added tbat these were net tbe worst citi
zens who were early taught " tbe ehiet end
etman," tbere were crleaall ever the as
semblage et Gee! 1" "Geed I"
Following the president's addreaa Rev.
Dr. Thomsen, moderator of tbe northern
assembly, pronounced tbe beuedtotlen.
At the conclusion of the pres dent's ad
dress Moderator Bulleck, el the southern
assembly, eileted an eloquent prayer, and
tbe Doxology waa sung with true Presby
terian vigor. A benedlotlen by Moderator
Thompson, el the Nerthern ajsembly, con
eluded the exercises.
Th rnnnntien te the commlssienera fel
lowed. Mrs Cleveland, who were a black
lace dress with gilt braid across tbe oeraige,
took her place at her husband's right, and
the commissioners were lndlvlduslly pro
moted by Rev. Mr. Weed. Mr. and Mrs.
Cleveland had a hearty band shake for all,
and kept their places till every one bad
been presented. Refreshments for tbe
commissioners were served In a tent en tbe
lawn. Tbe recoptleu came te an end about
8:30 o'clock, and special tralna brought all
back te tbe city except the president and
Mrs. Cleveland and a lew friends, who
dined with the Merrises.
Tbe reception at tbe Academy of tbe Fine
Arta In tne evening diew a crowd tbat
Decked the spacious corridors and gallerlea
of that building most uncomfortably. Tbe
expectation of swing tbe president and
Mra. Cleveland was tbe attraction with a
oenalderable portion of the throng.
Governer Beaver made an address of wel
come, and an eloquent reply waa made by
Rev. Dr. Bulleck, tbn moderator of the
Southern assmbly, for whom the audience
save three cheers. Rev. Dr. Thompaen,
the moderator of the Nerthern assembly ;
Rev. Dr. Jamea Pouter Smith and Rev. Dr.
Macintosh alaespjke. All the addresses
brealtel a fraternal spirit, and all rofer refer rofer
eneea te reunion wer well received.
Tbe Prealdent and Mrs. Cleveland en
tered the Acadeny by a side entrance, and
bad been for some tl ne In tbe room where
toespeaklng took place before tbelr prea prea
tnee became known te the crowd in tbe
trout portion et tbe building. Then there
waa a great rush toward tbe room, and the
lain In tbe central corridor waa something
frlgbllut The police arrangements were
altogether inadequate, and tbe crowd In
coaiequenee was much longer in passleg
by the president than it abeuld have been.
Mrs. Cleveland, apparently wearied by the
reception In tbe aiterncer, made no effort
te abake bands with the endless llns of
riepl" passing before ber, but watched
tar lukbind as be went through the taak
with smiling determination. She ebatted

When Chairman Ltubaeb, of Northamp
ton preteated te the Deaeoeratlo oeayeatloa
la Harrlaburg at Ita Wedneaday afternoon
aeaaien the report of the committee en or
ganization aad named ex-Senater Wallace
for permanent chairman, the convention
cheered. The report, which made the ether
temporary oflleera permanent, waa accepted,
and Mr. Laubach and I W. Reed, or
Beaver, at Mr. Hansel's request, escorted
Mr. Wallace te the chair. The latter, after
being vociferously applauded, made a
apeeeh or oenalderable length, whleh met
with great favor. He amid the Deaaoerata
of Pennsylvania and of the republle are en
trial. "We are seeking renawtd power for
another four yeara because we have ful
filled our pledgee, and the prediction a of
our ad veraary have been nullified aad gain
aald. The answer cornea in a flnanelal
polleyand business regulations wlae and
Juat, in an honest and patriotic admlnlatra admlnlatra
tlen, and in an earnest atruggle for lighter
taxes and cheaper government. The wonder
la net that ae little haa beea done, but tbat
be much haa come. The people of the
country believe In the president' a atreng
common aanse and aterllng integrity, and
we knew he la prepared te challenge and
defeat all oemera." Mr. Wallace aald that
ehe answer te ether chargea haa oeme in a
apetleaa lire and a domeatleotrole, respected
by the people and accepted everywhere aa
a model American houaebeld.
After remarking that thla waa tba flrat
atale convention attended by him In the
last eight years, Mr. Wal'aee aald he was
present te give whatever he could te the
cause of Democratic progress. The party
must move en te meet the intelligent pro
gress or the Independent voter. Mr. Wal
lace evoked cbeera by referenee te the "two
great Union generate" recently attacked en
the fleer of tbe United Statea Senate. He
aald, in adhering te war taxation after 20
yeara of peaee, and in their inability te
frame a bin for the reduction of the aurplua,
the Republleaaa have abewn that, like the
potato, the beat part or them ia In the
ground.
The prealdent, Mr. Wallaee aald, wants
anppert and aid. The Pennsylvsnla Dem Dem Dem
oerata will respond te hla calL They de net
wantabugOBurpluaandawallataea. They
want an open deer te every mart They are
net for free trade, but for a conservative
reform of the tariff lawr. There muat be
action new. There are 1,300,000 vetera in
Fennaylvanlt. The largest poll la only
aemethlng ever 000,000. About 200,000
young men will come te tbe polls next
November who have never voted for a
president. They will fellow a leader with a
clean record andaprereaalveaplrlt Speak
ing ler hlmaalf, Mr. Wallaee aald the aaloen
muat net control the Dsmocratle organiza
tion anywhere, nor muat prohibition, for
wherever tried It bad been a failure. He
held that every man has a right te work for
whom he pleases, and quit when he pleaaea,
and he must coneede tbat right te every
ether man. The right of a man te regulate
hla buslneaa in hla own lawful way ought
net te be interfered with.
The largeat element of Immigration, Mr.
Wallaee said, ia or a low type. Illiteracy
cornea with It, and that la a great menace te
tbe country. "We are being gorged te our
own deatiuotlen for the aupply of eheap
labor. Let there be a constitutional require
ment tba after five yeara, no voter can
oeme te the polls who la unable te read and
wrlta" In concluding Mr. Wallaee attd
tbat "an era of pregreaalva reform rests
upon the republic, initiated by Grever
Cleveland. Let tbe Democracy move for

Lighter taxiis, restored shipping, an intel
ligent buslneaa policy, a patrlotle admtnla admtnla

and called ler the prevleua queatlen. In

Chairman Wallace remarked tbat Mr.
Evans' motion shut off debate. Mr. Handera
qulekly aald he had a minority report te
otter. Thecbalr aa quickly dee'ared Mr.
Sanders out et order, and emphasized hla
decision by a heavy rap with a gavel of ex
traordinary size. It waa tie only exeltlng
moment of tbe convention. Hundreda of
men in the galleriea and among tbe dele
gates cheerid repeatedly. The ebalr vigor
ously pounded tbe table. Fer a minute or
two there waa an uproar, in which Mr. San
dera gesticulated and vainly tried te make
himself hesrd.
"Is tbe motion for tbe prevleua queatlen

of "ayes" was tbe response, and the ebalr
requested the aeoendera te arise and atand
until ceunted. Twe hundred or mere dele
gate arose. The cbalr remarked tbat tbe
rulea of the Heuse et Representatives re
quired 20 secenders, snd there were "16
times that many," ae without a mement'a
delay he put tbe motion for tba adoption of
tbe platierm, and It was carried wltn a viva
