The vote was to have been taken last night. If the majority ' should .be against Ministers, they have but two alterna .. tives before them, viz : to resign office in favor of a Liberal cabinet, or dissolve Parlia ment and appeal to a new election; IT WILL BE STRANGE If the Legislature should close its present session without un -wittingly passing some, measure that will prove detrimental to the great petroleum in terest of the State, for there seems to be a determination on the part of professional bores to snake through some bill that wilt seriously -interfere with the prosperity of those engaged in that trade.

Dr. Newton, of the Pro testant Episcopal Church, after which Rev. John -Hall, D. D., of New York, followed with nn, address on l'Cbristian Activity." ,George H. Stuart, 'Esq., was ! chosen .per Chairman of the Convention. The discussions were signalized'forthe kind, lov ing spirit that prevailed. Prominent among the laymen, were Judge Smith, •of Boston, D. L. Moody, of Chicago, Wm.. Welsh, of Philadelphia and ,others. Five topics were discussed. We can only give a condensed .view of each one, owing to the lack of space. "First, "What can the laymen,our Cuhrches do for Christ ?" It was shown that a layman of a Church is • annointed, com missioned and required to be j a prophet, priest and king in his Divine Master's ser vice. The, Scriptures` give 'thii authority. .Laymeri may hold - up the hands of minis ters; pray for. them, sympathize and co operate with 'than. - Ttiey ihouldimProVe opportunities to , speak and work for Christ. They'"may do much good by hold ing meetings for prayer, instruction and out-door Services. Second, "What can `the women. of the Churches - do for, Christ." Women have examples in "Mary," , "Prisr, cilia," "Dorcas" and others, who were helpers for`Christ.'

The attempted murder of Juarez was modelled after Booth's more successful at tempt. Colonel Adalid, for two years Pre- : feet of Toluca, was the chief assassin. Juarez's box at the Yturbide is on the sec ond floor, but furthest off from the stage of any box in the house: It is close to the front entrance to the ; building, arid exceed ingly easy of access: The Colonel had a guard of twelve ex-Imperial lieutenant's , who, dressed as citizens, were to .mount fleet horses, and, having an extra horse for him, were to appear in citizens' dress (so as not. to excite suspicion) near the doors of, the theatre at nine— o'clock r. - si. ' or shortly after the, curtain was raised. Adidid was to enter the box, the door of which is in the rear, shoot and stab Juarez and then secure his horse and flee. To far ther aid him, fifteen or twenty or the con spirators were to place themselves near the box and around the doors so as to interrupt the passages and such as would follow the assassin. 1 The assassination accomplished, Adalid.end his men were to make for the Citadels; or arsenal, on the road of - La Pie dad, and where the Seventh Regiment was to move to from the palace. The garrison at the Citadels were to have hauled the flag down and run up the flag of Carlotta. Fifty men of tlic Seventh Regiment were to have proceeded to the residences, of the members. of Juarez's Cabinet and secure and hold them as prisoners. Folly one-half of this garri son, or 9,000 officers and men, were pledged to their assistance. The discovery was made by the interception of a note from one of the conspirators to Col. Garza, in eom mend of the Seventh Regiment, which is composed mainly of young men belonging to the aristocratic families of the State of Guanajuato. , The note by mistake was ',banded to a Lieutenant- of Juarez's body guard; who read it, and immediately After-, wards proceeded to confer with Gen. Re guies. . The result was the discovery of all 'the -plans and measures on foot to further them. Cols.'
