The tollo wing resolutions wore then sub? mitted: Resolved. That tbis church is bound at once to supply the $1000 asked for by the Bishop for missionary purposes. Resolved, That every mon- bor of this church, comm n mean ts and non-communicants, be and is hereby respectfully requested by this con? vention to send immediately, either direct to the Bishop, or through their rectors, the sum .f at least twenty-five cents for missionary purpose ?j Resolved, That it be recommended that some system be adopted in each parish to meet the .a tim ates as herein set forth; that is, that every rector see how many in his parish wdl pledge ?ne doll rr per week, bow many fifty oents, how many twenty-five cents, how many twenty cents, how many fifteen cents, how many ten cents, how many five osnts, for the missions .lies of the church during this year, and that a report he requested of eaoh reotor, at the next convention, of the result of this effort. The report caused some discussion on the part of .he clergy, and was warmly seconded bf the Revs. Paul Trapier and P. F. Stevens. Ber. 0. C. Pinokney thought the statistics Ware too minute and tended rather to confuse the salud. The laity could give the sum called fox by a yearly estimate, but the weekly dona tion would discourage many givers. Ber. A. T. Porter replied, showing that all reports I should be full, and if the rectora would all keep j lt book oi accpunta sud look carefully into the aobjeot, the -missionary fand of the diocese would be largely increased. On motion of Dr. Jervey, the report was adopted. Hr. J. W. Motte moved that 10,000 copies of the statistics of the report be printed in sepa? rate form, and that asufhoient number be soot lo the secretary of the convention, to eaoh lector and minister, with the request that a copy be given to each member of the church. The Bishop called for the reporta of the se vex al parishes. The Rev. John D. McOollougb, the chair ? man of tho committee, to whom wa? refer? red the proposed amendment to Canon 6, sub? mitted the following report : ? . That the committee have considered that the Object desired would be best attained by the .repeal of Canon 6. Therefore, be it Resolved, That Canon 6 bo repealed. Resolved, That the second rule of order be Attended by striking out in the fifth Une the words, "churches entitled to representation," AB* inserting in their stead the words, "list of parishes and churches in union with this con? tention." Also by inserting in the eighth line, "specify in? in ?heir report which pariahes and Jmurchoaare entitled to all the privileges ot MM convention, and which are debarred by . Article XII of the constitution from voting ?B?1 admitted by a vote of the convention/* Resolved, That the first standing resolution < oe stricken out. Tho report of the committee was, on motion, Adopted. The Rev. Thomas Gadsden offered a resolu UffBt which was adopted, that all those pa . Jfiehea in the diocese whioh were formerly raj Resented io this convention but which have now no hy representation herein, be invited to ?end delegates to the next convention. Reboiled, That the secretary bo instructed to eemmuaicate these resolutions before tba next . Jftotorelections. Hi? 3.1 \ 3?. J Tho Bev. Wf li. % Howe read the report of . ?.

MoCrady, Jr., j JV. pliu[ Trjpior. and others supported the oport aa tho boat union that oonld have been orm id, and likened it to a marriage tio which io ni in cou'd put asunder. Revs.. J. H. Corn ?h aud T. I''. G-idsdon oppoeod the report, on ho grounds that tho Advancement Society W?B ot capable of effeotrag the good claimed for t. TLo latter divine thought that tho board f managers should be formed from every sec ion of tho country, an objected to tho or^"u. zation as too seotio ftna moved in conse? no nco ot' th^6e objootions to withdraw his frons tho board. Hov. Paul Trapier dis ?ussod the objections separately, and argued hat tho last speaker waB in a minority of one. So ono thought him unfit, and as a representa? tive from the UD country he was heartily will? ing to accept the board as at present organ? ised. Od motion, tho report and accompanying resolutions wore then adopted. Rev. C. C. Pincknoy, fro ul t ho Board of Mis Biuns to Freedmen and Colored Poraons, road tho subjoined report : The Board of Missiona to . tho colorod people rospeo.fully roport that their operations during tho past year have been eonfiued chiefly to the maintenan-jo ot tho Franklt"-9treet Sohool in this cny. During the year 1868, the scnool was kept up to tho standard recorded in our lant report-one eupeiiutendcnt, twelve lencliere, and an average attendance of si* hundred scholars. . As the funds from tho Domestio Boa rd .n New York hu ve been steadily decreasing, we have been obliged to curtail our operations. The fsaberib louden t and four teachers have re? signed. But tho school ia successfully carried on by the ladies to the entire satisfaction of tho board. Religious instruction is combined with tho daily teaching aud tho clerical nv nu? bers of tho board attend every Frid ?y to cate? chise tho scholars and superviso tho school. Tho board r gret to announce to the o inven? tion tho probability ot losing tho bud ling in Franklin-street. TUP Secretary cftho lieus ury insiBts upon tho payment of the bala ice due U|jon tho origiual purchus), amounting to $8000. We seo no means of raisin? the money, either at h mo or abroa I, und unless tho amount is raised tho budding will be sold by the government on 1st June. The board recret tbe necessity of giving np the building, or suspending th > eobool, after BO satisfactory an experiment. But they soo no othor alternative, and report the fact to the convention, requesting their ?UBIructions in the matter. Tho board would' gladly exton?5, ita opera? tions to tho wide missionary field around. But without funes we can do no mote than super? vise tho school which has been supported by the Freed mt. n's Commission of the Protestant Episc >pal Church. We have encouraging reports from many of our clergy ot their labors among the colored race. In Sf. John's and St. Stephen's Parishes there are three Oberohes, built partly by the freedmen themselves, numbering respectively fifty, seventy-live and eighty communicants. They contribute to their pastor's support.and have Riven $30 to the African Mission of the Protestant Episcopal Churoh. Our missionary on the coast reports two chapels, provided by the colorea people, where our sei'/mos a c sustained, and where he is welcomed aa in former years. Bis experienco, ooufirmed by the observa? tion of the Bishop, and by others of tbe cler? gy, sat! fies us that the prejudice? of the last tew years are rapidly melting sway beneath the kind and Christian sympathy ot their former owners, and that abundant opportunities are now presented lo the church of winning baok their ali? glance to Christ aud td the purifying influence of His gospel. It is the speoial duty and proviuce of Southern Christians to ?are for the souls of (his still dependent race. To revive and to maintain their attachment to our church will require wisdom, labor and pa? tience. We muet train up teachers of their own race if wo would retain our influence over them, ?ii?j^Wn?n?sfc!lfim ? mnr^?Jb?TO?raKY.v" Rov. A. T. Porter offered the following: litootved, That the Board of Missions to the n UOUlUUll t?uU .......-. puuplu ^........^^ tv? January lat, after which ti mo it be merged iu tho y o m mon boar J ot missions. Ho stabed that the time was placed at Janu? ary lat, ia order to make some effort* to .?ave tbe FrankUu-street building. Rev. Paul Trapier said that $8000 was a small sum, and he waa loath to believe that the euilcl? ing would be sacrificed. If there was not mo? ney in the diocese to redeem it, surely the church North, that had frequently shown its sympathy, could do something for the freed? men. He appealed to the R JV. A. T. Porter to know if the North could and would not come to our aid. Rov. A. T. Porter said that he had canvassed the North and had received but little encour? agement. President Johnson had given a check for one thousand dollars. The Freed? man's Bureau had also contributed about five thousand dollars. General Howard assur? ed the speaker that while the building was used for a colored school they would net be troubled, and no payment had been made be? yond five hundred dollars. A recent commu? nication from the present Secretary of the Treasury stated that unless the whole amount was paid the building would be sold by the first of June, and the fifteen hundred dollars paid in be used aa rent. He had recently writ? ten to General Howard, and trusted that some outaide efforts would be made to aeoure the property. Rev. C. P. Gadsden stated that large arrears of salary were due tbe prinoipal and teachers, that could not bo raised. Mr. C. G. Memmingor stated that he had long foreseen that the Northern aid would be gradually withdrawn, and then nrged upon the oommittee tbe necessity of relying apon them? selves. He referred to the condition of the public schools, and showed tbac it was with great difficulty the colored children could be induced to become pupils. The State govern? ment was opposed to the present organization of the public schools, and it would have been overthrown if tbe educational bill had passed. He thought the church should, at present, re? serve its sympathy for its own kith ana Mn, and await the time when the State, from its abondant resources, would make the provision tor the colored people heretofore made by the church. He trusted th a motion would prevad. On motion, tbe resolution was adopted. The Bishop appointed Reva. John D. McCul? lough and W. P. DuBose, Messrs. J. D. Palmor and W. M. Dwight, on the committee to confer with the Board of Manager! of the Ad? vancement Society. The Bev. O. P. Gadsden offered the follow? ing: Resolved, That tho second mle of order be amended by adding the words "the anniversa? ry sermon of tbe Advancement Sooiety mav be preached on the second day after morning prayer." Adopted. Bev. P. F.Stevens offered the following: Resolved, That a special commit te ! of two clergymen and three laymen be appointed to prepare an outline cf the history or th : officers of the church, wardens and vestrymen, giving iheir origin, establishment ana appropriate dutte \ togo! her with suggestions QC additional duties which may be rightly attached to said offiocra. Said committee to report at the next' convention. . ... On motion of the Bev. Pani Trapier, the re* solution wa? adopted, and he .offered tho tol? ing: Reached, That a Committee of one olorgv mau and one layman be appointed to prepare and peasant ta tho ?ext eonvohttoh a s.ate rn*iR ot the ?tips requisite for organising con? gregations in connection with the churches m this diocese, as a guide to perons who may wish to form such Pcngreg?{jk>ns. Adopted. Mr. John Hanokel moved to strike sections twenty and twenry-on? from the standing resQ twWIU* I Resolved, That the Bishop bo requested to ip point an agent for this diocese to reooive and transmit any missionary contributions as they may be designated by the donors. Bev. Co P. Gadsden moved that when the >nveution adjourns it adjourn to meet ih ibboville. On a division of the Convention tho oto stood Iwenty-aevon ayes, BixtC$n noes, nd the next BOSB?OII ot tho convention was or lerod to be bold ?p. Abbe ville.

Tb? ?omm?toe on Vestry and Wardens, to >e appointed under Rev. P. P. Stevens' rcsolu ion, wore announced by the Bishop aa follows: Etovs. Paul Trapier and P. F. Stevens, and Messrs. McGrady, Lesosne and Memmingor. The resolution presented at the last oonven ;iOD, changing tho day of meeting from the iccond Wednesday to the second Thursday in May, came up. This being a chango in the constitution, tbo vote was taken by ballot and Ibo asieiidment was adopted. Mr. W. C. Bee from the Committee on Fi ?anee, appointed to report on that portion of the Standing Committee's report in roference to tbe trial of tho Rev. Mr. Arthur, presented tbe following : Resolved, That the assessments upon tbe Bereral oburolies be as follows : ot. 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; Orace Church, Charleston, ad? ditional, $80.

The assessments previously renorted to remain in force, and the prompt liquidation of those imposed be urged upon the churches iu arrears. A motion to reconsider th? vote changing tho next session of the convention was made, and ou a division of the convention, tbe vote was reconsidered- ayes 21, noes 16. Tbo original question was then opened to discussion, and after some debate was again adopted. After- reading the minutes, and a prayer by tbe Bishop, the convention was declared ad? journed. A SnAui* HASOAX.-Tbe Wilmington Journal of yesterday sayB : 4"A shrewd swindler has re? cently been imoosing, with some success, upon the railway officials in this section.
