ImpoUuer, New York, Oct. 1.—One of the questions to cotue before the New York presbytery, which meets to'day, is the question of u revision of the creed und Westminster confession. It is not likely that any, action will be taken iu regard to the revision now, inasmuch as the presbytery has a great deal of routine business to transact. It is said on good authority that the question will not be acted upon Anally before the November meeting of the presbytery. According to a statement which will appear iu The Tribune tomorrow the general opinion in thiH city is that any attempts at revisiou will be defeated. There are £32 presbyteries in the country, aud so far C11 of them, or 20 per cent of the whole number, have voted. Of'these 27 stand aguiiist revision, Ci for a moderate revision, 11 for revisions that are unspeeitied, 4 for a supplemental creeds 2 for tin explanatory statement, and 3 are undetermined. It takes two-thirds of the 232- presbyteries to order u revision of the deed, and present indications am* that more thar 100 presbyteries will vote against any change. New York Presbjrterr.
