Humphrey were laid on the table by mot iou
of Dr. Thomas, and tho substitute of Dr.
Gurley taken np and passed by a vote of
196 to 37. This, substitute condemns the
declaration and testimony as a slander
against tho church; schismatical in ita
character, and its adoption by any church
court is declared an act of rebellion against
the authority of tho General Assembly. It
summons all the signers of the declara!ion
and all tho members of the Presbyti ry who
voted for it to appear before tho next Gen?
eral Assembly to answer for their conduct,
and prohibits them from silting as mem?
bers of any church court higher than ses?

solves any Presbytery that disregards this
action of the Assembly, and vests all pres?
bytery authority in such ministers and
eldersof such Presbytery as adhere to the

On motion of Dr. Monfort, those mem?

WASHINGTON, June2.- .Anion.; tho docu?
ments submitted by Ute l'ost master * ielie
ral, in responso to the resolution of tho
Senate respecting the erection of Govern?
ment telegraph lines, is the answer of tltf)
" America?,*' "Western Union" and
" Uniied States" Telegraph Companies, to
his inquiries. This document is somewhat
voluminous, yet one which cannot fail to
attract attention, and will* convey many
fads not generally knoiifh, and ol' interest
to all connected with telegraphic enter?
prises. Anion;; tho points reached arc:
I. The impracticability of predionliny
telegraph traffic on tho post ofllco system
of one charge to all places, and tailing tho
minimum ot prosonI tariffs as the stand?
ard. This, it claims, would bo makin;;
what are called "social messages" sn fte r
for the commercial business, the formal'
bein.; chiefly local and representing tin
minimum tariff, and tho latter distant. It
also show:; how impracticable it would be
to sustain the linc., nuder such a tarin*, un?
less with lill increase of business, which,
if oil. iel, could not bc sent without Hie
corresponding increase of wire;, tho in?
crease of raphal and the absorption of
largo sums ot money, without any certainty
ol advantage.
Thc fallacy of the proposal to send
sixty-word messages at the present rate of
postage, showing that tho mero cost of
delivering a message in New York exceeds
eight cents, and that, nuder ordinary ex?
penses of rent and operations, with the
wires constantly occupied, moving twelve
hours each day, at the rate of 'i!,u(HJ wolds
per hour, a six-wire lino between Washing
ton and New York would entail ti nett loss
of over 1300,000 per ii un mn
3. Tho necessity for tho size of present
tariffs, showing that they hayo not been
I increased beyond the general advance of
i tho cost of labor and other values.
! 4. Tho error of assuming that a corres?
ponding increase of business from every
reduct ion of the tariff, claiming that ibero i
is a limit to tho exposuro by telegraph of
commercial and social correspondence, and
that the mail must necessarily absorb
I nearly all communication not requiring im
! mediate despatch.
I 5. The necessity for combinations of
, lines, not only to enablo companies to eco
' nomizo their expenses and preservo the
j value of telegraphic property, but for tho
purpose of sending communications with
I out unnecessary expedition under a single
management and responsibility, thus
avoiding the chief causo of error."
C. That these combinations are necessa?
ry as preparatory steps before tho con?
summation of tho groat enterprises which
i look to the speedy encircling of thc globe,
aud which, to bo successful, must bo under
a simple and harmonious control.
7. That tho consolidation of telegraph
.companies has been tho result of mutual
necessities, showing that the expenses of
maintenances, usually regarded as .small,
are such aa to render it next to impossible
for two vigorous companies to contend for
business, and maintain to their properties
any commercial value.
8. That the average earnings of the large
companies, popularly roprcReutcd as enor?
mous, havo been very small- the united
earnings not being over four por cent,
during the post year.
9. That tho United States Revonue Tax
has averaged over four cents on each mes?
sage, independent of local and State assess?
ments, which have, in some States, been
equal to four couts more. That tho reve?
nue tax ou tho net receipts of the Ameri?
can Telegraph Linc, for 1805, waa twenty
three per cent. If tho income tax on
dividends in tho State of Texas were added,
the total tax would bc about one-third of
the entire net receipts.
10. That any attempt to found a system
like that proposed, and sustain it upon ita
own resources, must be unsuccessful. It
is claimed that the proper functions of
Government aro in the protection of pri?
vate onterpriaes, and that Government
should neither compote with nor repress
it so long as proof is attainable of the cor?
rectness of tho basis on which tho business
lb transacted.
H. That under our institutions, a tele?
graph system controlled by the Govern?
ment must bc, in the nature of things,
objectionable. Especially must it be so to
the press, to ail actively interested in tho
politics Ol the natiou; and that tho hues
could not fail, sooner or later, to become
mere Government vehicles for espiouage
and power.
1-2. Denies all tho public stateuieuts
made of the coat of constructing lines as
visionary and untrue, ll is shown that the
expenditure for the mere cable laid in tho
linds.m Uiver, to conueot New York and
Washington, exceeds the whole amount of
the paulie estimate made <*f thc cost of an
entire line between these cities. Much
collateral information is given, including
the financial results of the past six years,
ami the difficulties and peculiarities of the
bunine ss.
lt npi>cara from this answer, that there
arc over 70 telegraph offices in New York
city, with a force of ;t75 persons; that there
aro now thirty wires between New York
ami Washington, and that nearly 100 wires
leave tho city of New York. The American
ami Western Union Companies have about
2,otto offices, with 5,000 employees. The
names of 30 companies are given, with uti
aggregate capital of $50,000,000, employ mg
5,000 persona.

Sehr. John S. Loo, Buniull, New york
From Mr. VaUandlgha.ni.
Wo extract the following from a
speech made by Hon. C. IZ Vallan
digham before the recent Ohio De?
mocratic Convention:
Wo support a President for whom
we did not vote; we limit our sup?
port to tho particular question in
which the whole country is interested,
and upon which deoends tho perpe?
tuity of tho Union, tho maintenance
of tho Constitution, and tho liberties
of tho people, and iu this wo render
him a loyal and entirely uuseliish
support. I say here, to-night, that T
sign no recommendation for any civil
position to tho President of tho
United States. 1 say, I trust, with?
out being accused of arrogance or as?
sumption, that the name of tho gen?
tleman who presided at this Conven?
tion, tho gentleman who addressed
you at this afternoon's session, and
that other, whose name is so odious
to Republicans, :>? 'he undersigned
hoars, would probity go as far at
tho "White House as that of Thaddeus
Stevens or diaries Summer. [Loud
laughter and applause. |
Then, I say, let our President de?
pend lipon his friends, who eau com?
mand 18,000,000 honest and inde?
pendent volunteers, for ho may, and
ho cannot, I am sorry to say, upon
the band of 500,000 mercenaries,
whose patriotism is measured by th?
size and conlinuanc?? of their salaries.
Wo pr?>pose no fusi?n, either with
tho President or with any party oi
his which may be organized. In :
restored Union, we mean t?> light mr
the battle upon the line of Demo
cracy, and with the zeal of earnest
men, and with God's help, wo shal
bo successful. 1 know we nr.- in th?
midst of critical times.
1 do not. undertake to say we shal
not have more civil war in America
The clouds are surcharged with lighl
ning. The recklessness <d* t lie ma
jority in Congress is ominous; but i
they imagiue that (lu- P?unoerat

that the President means to strike th
first blow, they are mistaken. Bn
you have only to look at the work c
tlie so-called legislature, and uotic
the bills which it has enacted, one c
which has been passed over the hea
of the President; mensures, who*
aim is first the perpetuation of th
power of that party; and secondly
the consolidation of the (lovernmenl
