Pani Trapier and P.P. Stevens. Bev. C. C. Pmokney thought the eta tia tics i too minute and tended rather to confuse . the inind. < The laity could give the sum called Jar by ? yearly estimate, but the weekly dona? tion would discourage many givers. Bev. A. . T. Porter rephed, showing that all reports ? whooid be tah, ind if the rectors would all keep a book of account* and look careful ly into the J subject, the missionary fund of the diocese would be largely lndreased. On motion' of Dr. Jervey,' the report was adopted. Mr. J. W. Motto moved that 10,000 copies of the statistics of the report be printed in sepa? rate form, and that a sufficient nain ber be sent .to the secretary of the convention, to each ?fester and tilbuster, with the request theta oopy be g iv en. to each member of the church. The Bishop called for th? reporta of the as ver al parishes. The Ber. John D. McCoIiongb, the chair? man of the committee, to whom was refer? red the proposed amendment to Canon 6, sub . .raitt ed the following xeport : .'.v-That the committee have considered that the awjeot desired would be best attained by the XSpeel of Canon 6. Therefore, be it Resolved, That Canon 6 bo repealed. Beaotaed, That the second rule of order be '. ; a? ended by striking out in the fifth line the Srprd*, "churches entitled to representation," sad inserting in their stead the words, "list of I Poshes and churches in onion with this cou- | jsntjou." Also by inserting in the eighth line. specifying m their report which pariahes and enureses are entitled to all the privileges of ^???T5?t?on, and which are debarred by Arti cia ill of the 'constitution from voting anti! admitted by a vote of the convention.** Besoteed, That tue first standing resolution he stricken ont. The report of the committee was, on motion, adopted. The Bev. Thomas Gadsden offered a resolu? tion, which was adopted, that all those pa? rishes in the diocese which were formerly rep? resented io this convention but which have - ?owno hy representation herein, be invited to . jsand delegates to the next convention. Resolved, That the secretary bo instructed to eommumcate these resolutions before the next Baster elections. r The Bev. W. B. W. Howe read the report of | I ? . the^Mnfc committee ot the convention and the Advancement of Christianity Society, and _L j jnpvod that the resolutions embodied therein be <J adopted.

Toe motion to adopt the report (publ on Friday) elicited a warm discussion SJ th3 oltrgy and laity. Mr. E. MoCrady Riv. Paul Trapier, and others supporte report aa the best union that could have .formed, and likened it to a marriage tie \ no man could put asunder. Revs. J. H. I iah and T. P. Gadsden opposed the repoi the grounds that the Advancement Societ; not capable of effecting the good claime H. The latter divine thought that the I of maoagers should be formed from everj tion of the country, an - objected to the 01 ization as too sectional, and moved in ci qnenoe of these objections to withdraw name from the board. Rev. Paul Trapiei cussed the objections separately, andar that the last speaker was in a minority of Ko one thought him unfit, and as a represi live from the ur>country he was heartily ing to accept the board as at present oi ized. On motion, the report and acoompat resolutions were then adopted. Rev. C. C. Pinckney, fro ai the Board of Biens to Freedmen and Colored Persons, the subjoined report : The Board or Hissions to the colored p< reaped fully report that their operations dr the past year have been confined chiefly tc maintenance ot tho Franklm-strect Bebo this city. During the year 1868, the Behool kept up to the standard recorded in our report-one superintendent, twelve teacl and an average attendance of six hunt scholars. . _ AB the funds from the Domestic Boar New York have been steadily decreasing, have been obliged to curtail our operan The superintendent and four teachers hav< "lint the school is successfully camed 01 the ladies, to the entire satisfaction of board. Religious mat met ion is com bi with the daily teaching and tba olerioal m bera of the board attend every Fndiy to c cbise the scholars and supervise the school The botrd r ^ret to announce- to the con* tion the probability of losing the bud liu, Frank li n-atreet. The Secretary cf the Tn ury insists upon the payment of the bala aloe upon the original purchase, amountin $8000. We see no means of raising the mon either at h >me or abroa I, and unless amount is raised the building will be sole the government on 1st June. The board reerect he necessity of giving tbe building, or suspending the school, al so satisfactory au experiment. But they no other alternative, and report the fact to convention, requesting their instructions the matter. Tho'board would gladly extend its opt tiona to the wide missionary field around. ] without funda we can do no moie than sui vise the school which has been supported the Freedmen's Commission of the Protest Episcopal Chunb. We have encouraging reporta from man: our clergy of their - labors among the colo race. In St. John's and St. Stephen's Paris .rere are three churches, built partly by l freedmen themselves, numbering respectiv fifty, seventy-five and eighty communioai They contribute to their pastor's support,! have given $30 to the African Mission of Protestant Episcopal Church. Our missionary on the coast reports I chapels, provided by the colored peoj where our services aie sustained, and wh he ia welcomed as in former years. His experience, con firmed by tbe obser rion of the Bishop, and by otherstof the cl gy, sati fies us that the prejudices of the I tew years are rapidly melting away beneath kind and Christian sympathy ot their fore owners, and that abundant opportunities . now presented to the church ot winnini? bi their allegiance to Christ and to the purify] influence of His gospel. It is the special di and province of Southern Christiana to ci for the souls Of thus still dependent race, revive and to maintain their attachment our church will require wisdom, labor and i tienoe. We muet train up teachers of their own rt if we would retain our influence over the and incorporate them more thoroueblv ii the body of Christ. C. C. PINCKNZY Rev. A. T. Portier offered the following: Resolved, That the Board of Missisns to t freedmen and coloreo' people be continued Januarv 1st, after which time it be merged the common boar J of missions. He stated that the time was placed at Jan ary 1st, io order to make some effort-? to BS the Franklin-street btilding. Rev. Paul Trapier said that $8000 was a sm sum, and be was loath' to believe that the oui! ing would be sacrificed. If there waa not m ney in the diocese to redeem it, surely t church North, that had frequently shown i sympathy, could do something for the free men. He appealed to the Riv. A. T. Porter know if the North could and would not con to our aid. Ber. A. T. Porter skid that he had canvass* the North and had received but little encou agement. President Johnson had given check for one thousand dollars. The Free? man's Bureau* had also contributed aboi fire thousand dollars. General Howard assn ed the speaker that while the building wi used for a colored school they would net 1 troubled, ana no payment had been made b youd five hundred dollars. A recent com mt ideation from the present Secretary of tb Treasury stated that unless the whole amour waa paid the building would be sold by th first of Juna, and the fifteen hundred doll ai paid in be used as rent. He had recently wri ten to General Howard, and trusted that son outside efforts would be made to secure th property. Rev. C. P. Gadsden stated that large arrear of salary were due the principal and teachers that could not be raised. Mr. C. G. Memminger stated that he hai long foreseen that the Northern aid would b gradually withdrawn, and then urged upon th committee tbe necessity of relying npon them selves. He referred to the condition of th public schools, and showed that it was witt great difficulty the colored children could b induced to become pupils. The State govern ment was opposed to the present organ izatioi of the public schools, and it would have beci overthrown if the educational bill had passed He thought the church should, at present, re? serve its sympathy for its own kith and kin, and await the time when the State, from its abundant resources, would make the provision tor the colored people heretofore made by the church. He trusted th a motion would prevail. On motion, the resolution waa adopted. The Bishop appointed Revs. John D. McCul? lough and W. P. DuBose, Messrs. J. D. Palmer and W. M. Dwight, on the committee to confer with the Board of Manager 3 of the Ad? vancement Society. The ROT. C. P. Gadsden off ired the follow? ing: Resolved, That the second rule of order be amended by adding the words "the anniversa? ry sermon of the Advancement Society mav bo preached on the second day after morning prayer." Adopted. Rev. P. F. Stevens offered the following: Reboiled, That a special commute of two clergsmen and throe laymen be appointed to preparo un outline of the history ot th J ofheors of ths church, w.in'ens aud vestrymen, giving their origin, establishment and appropriate duties together with suggestions of additional duties which may be rightly attached to said officers. Said committee to report at tho next convontiou. On motion of the Rev. Paul Trapier, the re? solution was aJoptod, and ho offered tho tol? ing: Resolved, That % committee of one clergy? man and ono layman bo appointed to prepare and present to the next convention u state? ment of the et-pa requisite foi- organizing oon gregatio ie in connection with the churches in this diocese, aa a eui de to persons who may wish to form such cong reg nions. Adoptod. Mr. John Hanckel moved to strike sections twenty and twenfy-one from the Btaading reso? lutions of the journal. Adopted. Ker. C. P. Gadsden offered the following res? olution, which was adopted: Resolved, That the Bishop be request ul to appoint an agent for this diocese to receive and tram-mi c. any missionary c >n tr ibu tiona as they may be designated by the donors. Rev. C. P. Gadsden moved that when tho convention adjourns it adjourn to me^t in AbbevilJo. On a division of the convention the vote stood twenty-seven ayes, sixteen noes, a')d the next sossion of the convention waa 01 dored to be held in Abbe ville. Mr. Elford moved that the usual number of journals be printed. Adopted. On motion, ?ho thanks of the convention were returned to Holmes' Book House and the various railroad companies for courtesies ex? tended to the members. The committee on Vestry and Wardens, to be appointed under Bev. P. F. Stevens'resolu? tion, were announced by the Bishop as follows: Revs. Paul Trapier and P. F. Stevens, and Messrs. McCrady, Lesesne and Henani inger. The resolution presented at the last conven? tion, changing the day of meeting from the second Wednesday -to the second Thursday m May, came up. This being a chango in the constitution, the vote was taken by ballot and the amendment was adopted. Mr. W. C. Bee from the Committee on Fi? nance, appointed to report on that portion of the Standing Committee's report in roference to the trial of the Rev. Mr. Arthur, presented the following : Resolved, Thai the assessments upon the several churcnes be as follows : .it. Philips', Charleston, additional, $50; St. Michaels', Charleston, additional, $50: St. Pauls', Charles? ton, additional. $80 ; St. Lukes', Charleston, additional, $80; Holy Communion, Charleston, additional, $80; Grace Church, Charleston, ad? ditional, $80.

Tho assessments previously reported to remain in force, and the prompt liquidation of those imposed be urged upon the churches in arrears. A motion to reconsider the vote changing the next Bession of the convention was made, and on a division of the convention, the voto was reconsidered-ayes 21, noes 16. The original question was then opened to discussion, and after souse debate was again adopted. After reading the minutes, and a prayer by the Bishop, the convention was declared ad? journed ri SHARP HASOAL.-The W.lm'ngtol! Journal yesterday says : "A shrewd swindler has re? cently been imoOBing, with some success, upon the railway officials in this section. Lust week he passed over th? Wilmington and Manchester Railroad from some point South, representing himself aa the bon of Mr. Ravonol, President of the Northeastern Railroa i. On the Wil? mington and Weldon Railroad ho appeared at the Section Master's bouse, and there repre? sented himself as the son of the late General Alexander McRie, formerly president ot the railroad, and scated that h J was on an inspect? ing tour. He imposed upon the Section Mas? ter's wife and took a meal at her house. Ho next turned up at Rocky Point and represent? ed himself aa being on some mission connect? ed with tbe poor. At Magnolia he stopped with the Secti m Master, Mr. Borne, anduis played singular knowledge of the affairs of the company. Before leaving he bone ht a ticket to Goldsboro' of the agent, for which he made , him give a receipt, saying that, as he was con - [ nected with the road, ne intended to have the money refunded wheo he returned to Wilming? ton.
