They are willing to trade with either, but remain true only so long as the interests of the church are best served. The church is their law, and all other law is subservient to the orders of the church. They are, therefore, a most dangerous and unscrupulous factor in politics, without regard to party."  Representatives of the Greenback party met at Now York and nominated Rev. Thomas K. Beecher, of Elmira, for secretary of state; John B.

The committee returned the subject to the convention and asked to be discharged from further consideration of it. The report of the constitutional amendments committee went upon the calender, and when it comes up in the regular order the ikirmish preliminary to the battle to bo fought out in the next general convention will probably take place.

Delegate Goodrich, of the United State*, proposed the following: "Resolved, That in the opinion of the conference no change shall be made in the use of the present masthead and colored lights." Upon reconvening, article 13, "Sound signals for fog," was taken up. Several amendments providing for the duration of fog signals were offered and discussed. When the subject of commendatory prayers for dying persons was introduced op a question of concurrence with the bishops there was a slight breese. The resolution was broken into clauses, and each clause was acted upon. One or two were adopted, such as the shortening of the communion of the sick in cases of contagious disease, or where the person is very weak. In several clauses of the of the sick the word "minister" occurs, and the bishops wanted the word changed to "priest." This brought Dr. Huntington to his feet, and he mqyed in a brief but sharp speech tq qqdconpur, He declared that the word "minister" was doubtless used in its general sense, and covered bishops as well as priests and deacons.
