The Presbyterian Presbytury, of Butler, met in the. church here Tuesday and con tinued in session till Wednesday evening. A great deal of church business was dis posed of during the sessions, ltev. Oiler, of Butler, and l>a\id Quigley, of Fair view twp. were appointed delegates to the Gen eral Assembly which meets at Saratoga next month. The question of Revision was left for the session of Wednesday aIU-rnoon, w hen the matter was brought np by the reading by Rev. Williams of the report of the com mittee appointed at last l'resbytery. The committee which consisted of Revs. Wil liams and Coulter reported against revis ion, or in other words, answered the first* question or overture of the General Assem bly in the negative, which made it unnec-, essary to answer the second. Rev. Coul ter spoke against revision as not being in harmony with the scriptures, also of the wonderful growth of the church under the present confession of faith, and made a motion to accept the report which was carried. A motion was then made to adopt the report, and this brought on a lengthy dis cussion of the merits of the question. Rev. Ogdett made a strong argument for revision, lie stated that Presbyterians believe in infant salvation, and do not be lieve iu tlic natural conclusions of the par ticular clause of the confession of faith as now worded. Rev. ISlauey moved to amend the mo tion before the Presbytery, by answering the first question iu the attuuiative, i:e; that the l'resbytery was in favor of Revis ion. lie stated that he had been raised on the shorter catechism and mush —a diet that seemed to agree with him as he is a two-hundred pounder ut least, hearty look ing aud good natured —he thinks a better expression of the doctrines of the ehureh was needed, such as would put an eud to the continual necessity for explanation, and that all Presbyterians are believers in infant salvation. Key. Young thought that many, like Kev. Ogden, desire a change of expression, but he was afraid that the General Asseni bly would go too far. On the subject of infant salvation, he read the 18th chapter ol Matthew, which he thought conclusive. The 14th verse says that not one of these little ones shall perish. Kcv. Coulter said that the verse said nothing about their dying, and Kev. Vouug answered that they were not children when they grew up aud died. Kev. Young said he would vote "no" on the report and "no" as to revision. Kev. \V. J. Ilaslctt said ho would vote in the negative, and gave his reasons. Kev. Mc Con key said that Rev. Young believed in ltevision but was going to vote against it, which reminded hint of the sto ry of tho man who found new objections as soon as the old ones were answered. Kev. Ulaney referred to the Amendment he bad offered, and Key. Williams read the closing sentence of the report.. Kev. Ketler moved to answer both separately; Kev. Ogden said they were the same thing and Kev. Ketler withdrew his motion. The question of the Amendment was then called for, and a rising Vote being tu keu it was found that there were fifteen voles for the Amendment and sixteen against it, or in other words a majority of one against revision. Some routine bus iness was then disposed of and the Presby tery adjourned. Kev. Oiler and Judge Mitchell of Butler voted for revision as did also Kev Ketler, of Orove City." Kev.
