Resolved t secondlyt That, forbearing as we desire to be, toward all ministers who have fallen into the error of pro-slaveryism or disloyalty, we re cord it as our solemn judgment that no such man ought to be a religious teacher in our Church: and If there he any such, we do hereby request him to withdraw from among us. The first resolution was passed unanimously. The yeas and nays were taken on tbe second re solution, when all the members voted in favor of it, with the exception of the Rev. Messrs. T. J.

FURTHER FROM EUROPE BY THE AUS TRALASIAN. Lord Palmerston has made explanations as to England’s proposition for a conference on the Danish question. "The only basis would be the treaty of 1852. Denmark desired to postpone an answer for a short period) from local conside rations. Mr. Cane asked whether the Government would station cruisers off Cnba to assist in carrying ont the slave trade treaty with the United States. Lord Palmerston expressed a great desire to put down the infamous traffic. The treaty with the United States had done mnch, bat France had lent bnt a broken-arm support. He thought it more prudent and humane to station cruisers off the coast of Africa than off Cuba 1 There has been no more fighting in Schleswig, and nothing new. It is confirmed that France assents to the con ference, though not in a very earnest spirit. The Dnke Augustenburg, in reply to an important de putation from all parts of Schleswig, declared his intention never to surrender his rights. The London Times considers that the main point has been gained in the assent of the Great Powers to a conference, and hopes it will produce satis factory results. The four Italian conspirators have been con demned, Graecco and Trabucco to transportation for life, and Imperatori and Scaglioni to twenty ■years imprisonment.

Feb. 28.—The L'onsUiutiannel, denying the erroneous assertions of certain papers respect ing the conference, says: France could not accept the proposals of a conference, it not yet having been made fo her. The three men charged with piracy in seizing schooner Joseph Lv Gerety have again been before the Liverpool magistrates. The counsel for the American Government demanded, under the extradition treaty, • that the prisoners be sent to New York for.trial. The defendants claim to have been juitifled in their course by written authority from the Confederate officials. Tne magistrate remanded the case till the 4th of March. In the House of Commons, last night, Mr. Hall burton said,, at the request of the Foreign Secre tary, he postponed his inquiry OB to the negotia tions with the United States relative to their forcible possession of the Island of San Juan, but he would not postpone the inquiry indefi nitely.

Dawson, of Tupgill Lodge, Middlehatn, the second -son ef Mr. Dawson, the celebrated trainer for Lord Glasgow, to Miss Elizabeth Flintott I’Anson, the fourth daughter of Mr. William I’Anson, of Spring Cottage, Norton, Malton, was celebrated in the parish church of St. Nicholas, Norton. The occasion was made one of the most;extreme rejoicing. The bride YT is attended by four bridesmaids, and the bri dd party included the elite of the neighbor n>od. The town was decked in banners from end, merry peals were rung on the bells ®- malton churches, and the splendid bind Off the second battalion of the North Riding Volunteers did honor to the occasion. The « dur “S the ceremony was crammed tij epieHOT, and at a moderate estimate folly persons assembled in the church and out side it. No- sooner had the carriages conven ing tho bridal party been driven off, than the people .in the street commenced a snow balling attack upon those in the churchyard, tbe gates being' made a grand focus for the missiles. This strange proceeding on the part of probably 1,500 to 2,000 people, en tirely put a stop to the egress of those in the churchyard, whose numbers were being con stantly increased by the ladies who were leav ing the church. At length, probably 600 gen tlemen in the churchyard set about returning the fire of the people, in the street, and then commenced a-quarter of an hour’s fight pro bably never equaled. The occupants of the churchyard having the advantage in position, and having the ladies to defend, eventually gained the day,and fairly conquered the attack ing party, though fully three times superior in numbers. —Liverpool Post, Feb. 11.

The United States Christian Commission has seized the present golden opportunity of rest for the Army to extend its w< rfc lor the good of tbe Soldiers. STATIONS have been multiplied, each with its chapel and store tents, free WTitiug tables, and, clothing, comforts and reading matter for gra tuitous distribution. VOLUNTABY DELEGATES, in numbers greater than ever before, have been sent to preach the Gospel at the stations and in regiments, bat teries and camps without Chaplains, distribute reading matter and stores, and labor for the good of the Soldiers. A PERMANENT FIELD AGENCY has been sufficiently extended to establish stations and superintend the work. THE BLESSING OF GOD rests signally on all parts of the work. Many thousands have been cheered, benefited and saved. Still a large part of the Army remains unreached, and double the number, both of stations and delega es, are needed to meet the urgent demand for them. The Christian Commission offers to the people a perfectly reliable and wonderfully economical channel to reach ihe entire army in all its various fields. The money given goes in full measure, in benefits for body and soul, directly to the Soldiers; and stores also, immediately from the hands of delegates from home, who add words and deeds of kit dress to the gifts when bestowed. Let the peot le give the Money and Stores, and thp work will be done. The large corps of Delegates now in the field will serve as a grand corps of rel;ef when the armies shall move and battles be fought, and the greater their number tho more prompt and effec tive will be the relief they shall render. LeMiot the present work languish. Wait not for the cry ol the wounded and dying before pro viding relief.
