The Concord Overture.—The ac tion of Bethel Presbytery touching the question of* mail's marrying his de ceased wife’s sister myst be concurred in by two-third* of all the Presbyteries constituting the Southern General As sembly in order to change the law as now ‘set forth in the Confession of Faith. Several Presbyteries have re cently acted upon this overture in a manner substantially the same as the disposition Of It by Bethel Presbytery in session at Yorkville last week— among them the Orange Presbytery of North Carolina and the Chesapeake and the Hanover Presbyteries of Vir ginia. The Wilmington, N. C., Pres- byteryw decided adversely to the pro posed change. Alluding to this sub ject, the Greensboro Patriot has the .following paragraph, which may ex plain the origin of iliis much vexed question: Though the inhibition in the Confession of Faith is treated by many as a dead law, vhep its'violation is brought totheatten- 'tion of the Church court the discipline is enforced Such was the case several years ago with the Rev. Mr. McQueen of the North Carolina Synod. His case was ap pealed to the General Assembly, and the decision of Presbytery was affirmed by that court of last resort. Since that time the question of amending the Confession of Faith has been agitated, and has result ed in submitting the question to the differ ent Presbyteries, in the shape of -the “Con- ' cord Overture."
