we recommend that every church organize and sustain a

he reminders to restrain the children from vice and sin

J. M. Wright, Ch'm.

Report of Committee on Education received, and after
some able discussion was adopted as follows: We, your
committee on education beg leave to make the following
report: We regard the subject of education as one of the
most important subjects that comes before our body; we
believe that, if the most of the people are educated, and
they are enabled to acquire useful knowledge, their con-
dition in life will be better, and the whole people will be
happier; where the people are educated, we look to find
happy homes, a prosperous people, the observance of moral
laws, the aptitude and disposition to progress toward a
higher civilization, a higher order of morality and a higher
condition of happiness; but where there is ignorance
there is crime, and some one has truthfullv said that "iir-
norance and crime are twin sisters, and whoever endures
the one will be compeled to marry the other;" we, also be-
lieve, that the time has come when an educated ministry
is more needed than in former days, from the fact that the
people generally, are becoming better enlightened, and if

the preacher is below his congregation in tlu point of ed-
ucation, he can not teach them successfully; and as error
and heresy are being disseminated all over our country,
makes the demand for an educated ministry still greater,
to successfully meet these errors that are preached all over
the country. Respectfully,

J. S. Stockton, Ch'm .

Report of Committee on Missions received, and adopted
as follows: We, your committee on associational missions
beg leave to make the following report: We are glad to
note, that mission work has been put in the hands of your
Executive Board, we believe this plan will elevate the
spirit of missions, let each church be an active missionary
body, by contributing of their means . to the Executive
Board, which will enable them to have all the destitutions
in our bounds filled. Respectfully,

B. H. James, Ch'm .

ABSTRACT OF PRINCIPLES.

We do now jointly agree in the strength of the Lord,
and through his assistance, to keep the faith as it was once
delivered to the saints, which we believe to contain the
following, sublime and important doctrines, viz: The be-
ing of a God head, and that the Scriptures of the Old and
New Testaments, are the words of God, and the only rule
of faith, and practice; the fall of Adam, the degeneracy of
the posterity, corruption of human nature, and the inabil-
ity of fallen man, to do that which is spiritually good, ab-
stract from Christ and the means of grace, ''For God so
loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son to die
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but
have everlasting life,'1 that he is the propitiation for our sins,
and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole
world, and sinners are justified by repentance towards God
and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; and God's elect are call-
ed and sanctified by the influence of the word of God, and
operation of the Holy Spirit: the final perseverance of the
saints in grace, and that the joys of the righteous and pun-
ishment of the wicked will be eternal, and that baptism is
by immersion in water, and that none but regularly bap-
tised persons have a right to commune together at the
Lord's table, also, that no minister has a right to the
administration of the ordinances, but such as are regularly
baptised, called, and come under the imposition of hands
bv the Presbvterv.

5. Every case taken up by the Association, shall first be
