Adopted. IL MEMBER A.OGItIEVED. Mr. McElwain desired to call the at tention of the Presbytery to a matter which interested him and the court also. lie was reported by name in one of the daily papers, as taking a course which if true, would render him unfit to sit as a member of this court, in -the. adjudica tion of this case. . lie called for a copy of the paper con taining the article referred to, when the Evening Mail was produced and an ex tract read from au editorial, reflecting on the course pursued Drs. McKin ney and McElwain. br. Idaratiall stated in explanation the reporter, as- not responsible for the article, but it came from the Editors. Dr, biclilnney thought t hal .a minute should be entered upon , the record de (daring the.charges to bb . false and elan derous. Dr.'bfarsball moved that such entry 'be made, and a vote being taken, the motion prevailed _ Rev. Mr. Braddock stated that this motion might lead to a misunderstand ing as it might be so construed as to leave the opinion that that was the only false and slanderous publications that have appeared in the public print, which was certinly erronons, as he had read editor ials in some of the city papers equally false and slanderous. - Dr. Wilson stated in ;explanation. that he had known the reporter of the Evening Mail fora number of yeara and he would take the I reaponsibilty of saying that he was not the author of the article. , - A vote was then taken and the motion decided in the affirmative without a "dis senting-vote." The vote in the affirma tive was, however, not a very , full one, as there were but two or three feeble "ayes" heard, all proceeding from Dr. biclisvaine's corner of the house. Tne Preabytery wafted for' some time on the committee appointed to take the testimony, which, however, did not ap pear.

At the conclusion of the reading of the report of the Commission to take testimony, Rev. Dr. Jacobus came for ward and renewed his application to have his testimony corrected. After renewing his. statement as pub lished in our report of the morning pro ceedings, he further stated that he - had been informed, after giving his testimo• ny, that Mr.. Linn had his name on the list of subscribers to the book, and he now desired to have the amendment made. Mr. Linn said he had no objections to having this verbal correction made. but he must positively decline to permit the record to be changed. The witness had been asked the question specifically and answered it positively: The testimony had been read to the witness and approV ed by him. His reasons for objecting were that heveribly billeved that if Dr. Jacobus had not ascertained that he. Mr. Linn had In his possession the ervidence of thsit splascriptimutithvecevection would not have been made. [The audience here appiqnded beartilY by clapping their hands and stamping. j The Moderator called the house to or, der and stated, in an excited roamer, that if such conduct was repeated' the home would be cleared of (*udders' im mediately.

Some• diaoussion - ensued oh- this mo• tion, after which it was ,withdraws by permissionl of the Cour,. - In order to avoid the objection raised by Mr. Linn, the prosecution re-called Dr. Jacobus and examined him as to the matter. Mr. Marsball stated that he had desired to thaw the audience that Dr. Jacobi:l* had given the explanation to his testitno• ny at the time he was first examined,but the clerk had not taken it down.

Dr. McKaig said it was not the prov ince of the court to adjourn in order to give the prosecution the time they ask for. Presbytery had resolved I.tself into a court to try the case of Mr. Linn and must proceed with the case until it -was concluded. Dr. McKinney made a windy speech in order to convince the court that it bad a right to adjourn for a sufficient length of time to allow: the prosecution to make out a case against Mr. Linn. He referrtal to,the ruiew of the Presbytery relative-to-procuring witnesses who had been legally cited but failed to attend in order to convince the court:that it would apply to witnesses who had not . 11tietrc`: • Mr. Ltnn objected to poilrinneMent in a very strong and convincing argument holding that it would be an act of inj us. tic. to the defondent as well as a viola don of the rules of the Presbytery.

Mr. Linn protested against this charge. Mr..Batenger, he said, had not been In cbnstiltatton with him. Mr, Bittenger aLso objected to the Mod. erator's language. He alleged that be had not been in consultation with Mr. Linn. Mr. Braddock rose to a point of order, which was that Dr. Bittenger, not being a member of the Court, had no right du ring a Wolof this character, to take part ; in the proceedings The. Moderator declined tq entertain the point of order and allowed Dr. Bit tenger to proceed. - - - After some further eapianation by Dr. Blttenger, !Which' was assailed try ill natured remark. from Drs. • Ikaddeick and Ferris the matterw as dropped. .Dr. Markiall obtained" MO door and Made a strong and forcible argument against the continuance of the ewe or - an adjournment. He said that the matter might be continued from time to time for the same'reasoni and never brought to a dose. He , protested against anycon. tinnance. Mx, Mega*, °onset for• Mr. Linn, ob jected in very 'forcible - terms against a continuance. Dr McKinney said• this matter could be settled If the defense would waive the ten days notice required by the rulea,and allow the prosecution to call witnesses that were now in the-honse. lilt was de sired to throw ligliton the ease, it could• be reached in this way. Dr. Moliaig took exception to• Dr. Mc. Kinney's manner of stating his case. He did not like to have him impugn the motives-of the defense- in adhering to the rules and regulations of Presbytery, whereupon Dr. McKinney replied that he had made no such assertion. This led to an exciting debate be tween the reverend' gentlemen, which had to be checked by the Moderator. The dincuasion was then continued on the question of adjournment. Dr. McKinney—Mr. Modeiator, we have witnesses. to prove some of the charges-on this 'preserrtinent far worse than they are alleged. Idr../..tnn—l object to. this imputation. I must call )r.

Edward is modest in his pretensions,' bnt occasion ally his peculiar genius in this riespec' becomes manifest, as it did yenerday. He was entrusted by the - barman of a saloon up town to procure the'“cbange" fora twenty dollar bill, which a cus tomer had proffered in payment' of cer tain potations. Edward, happy and animated as a policeman on duty, depar ted on his mission, while the customer and the confidential bar,,ixian awaited his return. Ordinarily, the matter should have occupied live minutes, but the minutes oxtended into hours and yet Edward returned not. Strange mis- givings at length seized upon the vender of juleps and smashes, and to ease his anxiety he called at Alderman Taylor's olive and secured the services of officer Bell to ascertain what accident bad be fallen Edward. The officer, after a dili gent search, discovered Edward' in an other Baleen not far away, enjoying him self immensely and endeavoring to sur round • a foaming glass of lager. Taken into the Alderman's presence he explained his absence. He bad been asleep, caused by the soporific influence. of the money. Upon returning from his journey itikthe land of 'dreams, all recol lection of the filthy lucre. had departed; and now he was only glad. that the ,clr oumstances had been recalled so pleas-, aptly, as it afforded, hinxiin opportunity of returned g the same minus twenty cents, the disappearande of which he could nut account for.

Hone Trade. A few days ago Me. WM. Rodgev: being , in need of a horse, wended his his way_to the horse market, presided : over by Mr. John Bowors. Among the number of line animals which attracted his nttention, he selected one ,valued at thirty-seven dollars, and according to. his statement upon being assured that the beast was sound in wind, limb, and every other respect, paid over the money and departed. He had not proCeeded three squares hoivever; before his purchase began to' exhibit unusual symptons for a sound horse, and indications of a wind•broken con dition. This was made clearly apparent when the horse• suddenly stopped, tin; able to proceed farther, and assumed ad appeatauee and acted not unlike a pair of bellows. Considering himself to be the victim of misrepresentations, Rodgers took the horse 'back and demanded hks money, which he alleges was refused him. He then left the animal and made information before Alderman Donaldson against Bowers for false pretenses, making the' allegations as set forth, up on which a warrant was issued. Booty. About a week ago James Laughlin found himself in need of , a pair of boots. Being short of fends it required some 40am:wing skill to secure the needed articles-but he managed the case, it is alleged in a very si m pie rummer. Simple measures are sometimes more effective than* exhaustive efforts, knowing a friend who was fortunately possessed of good credit at a certain shoe store, be seized upon the brilliant Idea of using that friend's name, which he did, and as a re sult, without money and 'without price, rejoiced in the possession of a pair of the best French calf. It subsequently be came apparent to the proprietor of the store, Mr. A. Johns, that the, proceed ing Ives somewhat irregular, as he states when the bill was presented to the friend he utterly denied knowledge& the/rens action, and refused to pay the money. Under the circumstances Mr. Jamul bad no recourse but totali backlipoiithiporig inal purchaser, which he did in the shape of an information for false pretence be fore Aideraitin McMaster yesterday, wholsaned a warrant for ;Ike arrest of Laaghlio. • • The "Friendship' , %Steather.

Grant or Hope steamers, but calculated to do about the same work under et di nary circumstances. The new steamer is a model of beauty acid elegance, and the Friendship boys may well be prdud at th , s practical result of their eEkirtai to secure a good apparatus. It is built din the usual style, brass mounted, Etc., and is In every respect first class as re gards the workmanship or appearance. A preliminary trial was made yester day and the result' gave the beat satis faction. The machinery worked with out a jar, and performed its work ad mirably. Asocond trial will take place iO-day, when the throwing mpaclties of the machine will be put to•the test. If t works ted, well in this respect dein others, it can certainly be classed among the best machines in the airinity.
