THE Gn nms.L RUUD OF TUE RE-
F()Em ED CIFIECII IN THE UNITED STA 73.,
—This large and venerable. liody, whose
last trietutiali meeting Was held, in ancine
mad, Ohio,,adjourned on Thursday night,
December 6th, after eight days' laorious
sessions.. The action of this Synod has
beeniawaited with, unusual interest. It is
well known to the church generally that
the denominations represented 'by this
Synod are divided theologically by oppo
.site tendencies. One of these is iu the'di
reetion of' ritualism or churchlinprs—the
ether is not a tendeneyetwaffrom but to
wards a closer adhesion to the doctrines,
customs and spirit of the ancient Reform 7
ed Church:. As the General Synod is the
final court of appeal many matters are
usually brought before it for adjudication
'involving the
,questions growing out of
their differences of opinion. The Annual
District Synod of the United States, fully
represented 'through its classes in this
General Synod, is the especial stronghold
of rituralistic and liturgical innovations,
and as a natural result bad its doings ap
pealed from to the higher court.
We make a resume of the matters of
chief interest that came before it during
its recent sessions.
The Super Appeal ease,
had created - the meet ofound-interest-in
the church. This was an appeal from the
action of the district Syruid of the United
States, or the Eastern Synod, as it is of
ten_ called, in which the conduct of Dr.
Bomberger, president of Ursinus college,
who, it was alleged, was teaching theolo
gy in the institution, was in his absence de
clared-to-b-e--"dis-ar-der/g;"-wad-he-was-are
deredetn_desistefromesuehedieorder
T,lfFeliCtliatearldelieenoteehey.ele - --would
_be proceeded against for contumacious
disregard of E'ynodrical authority. The
discutsion was long and earnest, and the
appeal was sustained by the General Sy
nod by a vote of one hundred (100) ayes
to seventy-eight (78) nays. This decision
settles that it is not disorderly in Dr.
Bomberger or any minister of' the Reform
ed-church-to-teach theology, although. not
invested with the office of teacher of theology
and not even conducting their theological
teaching under_the direction of a Synod.
It is iurther'settled that it is unconsti
tutional for a District Synod to assume or
iginal jurisdiction, as was done in this
case, over a minister of the Gospel—that
he is amenable to his chassis. This action
• is of vital-importance-to-the anti-Rituat
istic party. Those who love the old Church
wilLsejoic; • hear that Ursinus college
and its devoted president have not een
crushed, as was the purpose of the Ritual
ists, but may go on their way blessing the
Church by sending into its pulpits men
trained after the fashion of the fathers.—
Lancaster seirinary has no longer a mo
nopoly in the Eastern Synod of theologi
cal training within its jurisdiction.
The following paper was adopted as ex
pressive of the General Synod, as to the
points decided and the results reached in
the Super-Appeal case, viz :
"1. That the General Synod has decid
ed that the conduct of the Rev. J. IL A.
Bomberger, D. D., and those associated
with hlrui in Ursinus College, in giving
• theological instruction at the request of
the Board of Directors, is not disorderly
or contrary to the constitution of tie Re
formed Church, although they have not
been invested with the office of teacher
a theology by, nor are conducting their
theological teachings under, the direc
tion of the Eastern Synod.
"2. That the General Synod has decid
ed that the Synod of the Reformed Church
in the United States acted unconstitution
ally in assutning original jurietiction in
the case of one of the ministers of the elm
sis of Philadelphia.
This decision involved theological or doc
trinal issue in the Church, and distinctly
pronounced her as regarding the dictrinal
position of Ursinus College and its theologi
cal teaching consistuent with, her standards
and ucrthy of her confidence.
Ursinus College is au institution found
ed by ministers and el
ders of the Reformed Church, in Septem
ber, 1870, has a university charter grant
ed by the Legislature of Pennsylvania,
including of course the power to teach
not merely the branches usually taught
in our best colleges, but also law, medi
cine and theology. In this young insti
tution there are already about one hun
dred students in the various departments
twenty-nine of whom have the ministry
• in view. It is located at Freeland, Mont
gomery county, Pa., and is under charge
of an able faculty.
The next case of exciting interest was
The Dunn Cbmplaint.
• The origin of the case is as follows :
The Crassis of Mercersburg made an
assessment of a certain sum upon the
Huntington congregation for the benefi
ciary education of students. Elder Dunn
representing the congregation at Hunt
ington, informed the classis that the con-
gregation were unable to meet the'assess
rnent, whereupon the cla:sis enjoined the
congregation from wing for other par
oses any moneys obtained by collection
~ until the asscestnent should be paid.
In behalf of the congregation, Elder
Dunn appealed from this decision of the
elassis to the District Synod—that of
Martinsburg. From the District Synod
the appeal, on complaint, was carried to
the General Synod.
The question before the-Synod was:—
Shall chassis, when they make assessments
upon their congregations, have a prior
and exclusive claim upon funds in the
hands of those congregations to the a
mount of the assessment ?
yearly a whole day was taken up with
the discussion. At its close Elder Dunn's
appeal - was sustained by a vote of ninety
(P 0) ayes to eighty (80) nays.
.At the evening session, the following
vas arored by the Rev. r. J. H. Good :
itaeph cd, That no consistory or other
judicatory has any light to ahenato any
funds from the purposes for which they
were coatdhuted ; but that cousistories
have the nutionhtcd right to designate the
direction which funds in their hands for
henevolent purposes shall take, when not
specially deeignatod by the donors.
The resolutton wa.stmpicusly discussed,
and was fina l ly divided into two sectifins.
The firet,ht re ~ard to the alienation of funds
for spectific purposes by comistaries, was a
•dopted by a vote of 31 ayes. Thirty-Eve
members wore excused from voting, on
the ground ihat they had previously vet
,ed; upon the same question.
. The second section, comprising the re
mainder
of the resolution, was adopted by ,
the following vote: Ayes, 82 ; nays, 19.
Upon this vote 39 members were excused.
This decision takes the fetters off many
ministers and consistories and allows them
to aid, through the regularly established
hoaids of, the church, students in Sheboy
gan Mission" institute, Heidelburg college
and seminary, at Tiffin, Ohio,
and Ursin
us•college, Pennsylvania. No longer must
they aid in the propagation of ritualism
or the efiette dogmas of the third and .
fourth centuries. , ,
Once more the churches . .are' free, and
Elder Dunn deserves the gratitude of the
entire church for his persistent labors un
der every kind of hindrance and every
form of annoyance in pushing this mat
ter to a dedision in the highest court of
the church. It is really .a deliverance
from oppression.
The action of the General Synod in these
and other matters was ,so distasteful to
those who have for several years used it
to sanctipn innovations, that an effort
was planned to divest the Synod of its ju
dicial character, allowing no -appeals to
be made from lower courts to it, and re
tainiu,g for it only an advisory character
after the platform of the Congregational
Association. On a motion to refer such
such amendment of the Constitution. it
was promptly voted down. This was fol
lowed by an effort to send down to the
- Closets a proposition •for the creation of
"a court of appeal," which should be a fi
nal resort in all appeals and complaints—
this court was to,consist of two members
fiom each District Synod, and was to re
lieve the General Synod from all the ir
ritation growing out of appeal cases. There

Church, Union.
The union between the Reformed (Ger
man) arur the Reformed (Dutch) Church
e§ has been cherisheded with a fond hope
for years. This item was brought directly
before this Synod in the statement of the
corresponding delegate of the Dutch Re
formed Church, that he was authorized to
request the views of the General Synod
on this subject. The entire question was
referred -to a committee- of three from
each District Synod,—who agreed to_pro
pose the following as the action of the
General Synod, viz:
Resolved, That this General Synod is
in full accord with the pievailing send-.
mentin th - e - elurch; - as - it-regards-the-de
sirableness of Christian unity, and look
forward-with-pleasure_to_a_unionith the
Reformed Church in America that may
be accomplished on a basis satisfactory to
both churches. Believing that the time
be at•hand when negotiations looking to
this end should be initiated, it is resolved
by the General synod to appoint a com
mittee of three from each of the five sy
nods, composing the General Synod, which
shall confer with a like committee of the
Refbrmed Church in America, on the'
proposed union between that Church and
our own, and report the results of their
conference to the General Synod at its
next meeting.
To the surprise and gratification of ma
ny this action was adopted unanimoud.).
Doubtless it will form an era in the his
tory of union among Protestant Churches.
This movement also augurs well for the
ultimate union of these two grand old
churches of kindred faith • and reforma
tion origin.—Cor. Harrisburg Telegraph.
It ~There was a great fire in the Fifth
Avenue Intel, New York, on the 11th
inst. Eleven laundry girls were burnt to
death, having been cut off' by the flames.
The effort to keep the fire a secret is said
to have been the cause of tie death of
these girls. To show the indiCerence of
the managers, when one whole side of the
building, which fronts on several streets,
and is very large, was burning furiously,
a guest was duly registered at the Write,
and shown to a room in the part of the
house already on fire. He did not tarry
long in his new quarters.

been subject to epileptic attacks from boy- .

rant the conclusion that death ensued from
the cause mentioned.
We learn from the family physician.

usual on Saturday, but had complained
of feeling unwell for several days. At 5
o'clock in the morning heiwas breathing

MR. BIAIR---DEAR SIR :—Noticing in
the columns of the.Recort2 of the bth inst.
the Criticisms by "Grumbler" on the fact
of the names of President, &c., being in
scribed on the New School House Bell—
i' having made the purchase—feel it my
duty to say that the Messrs. Fultons, who
manufactured: the bell, made the request
of me to procure the names of the gentle
men comprising the Board, saying it is al
ways customary, not only on school, but
even on chur!ch and steam boat bells, to
have the names of those in authority plac
ed there. And as the Messrs. Fultons
have been in the business for more than
thirty years, they certainly ought to kie
...rood authority, on this subject. Ihe idea

ferent Ntscriptions on twenty-five to thirty
bells turned every Saturday, he would be•
gin to think there were some things he
did not know.' The great trouble seems
to me to. be that the writer of the article
of the bth was not, on the building
committee, and that his name has not been
placed DA the bell "in letters of living fire."
