KHiloro Lutheran Heitor ♦ Tto
Thirty First Couvtuuon of the La
tberau Synod of South-West Vir-
giui* closed to da#- It was la n»*it>
nuqmou na ttmxirUut session, and
all M catmint th*t tha mom of
our church ha* boon advanced by lu
transactions. There waa wore unity
of |»urpooe and wore to rams mas me*
thjni than in MHverat previous ran
veuiiou*. The Uiscoialaat elriuwite,
wluch hare, to a greater or lean
extent, existed in all th« District
Synods in the South, oeeia to bo (hot
disappearing, and we henceforth feel
more m if we were war Amp topethee .
The officers of thio year ire Rev.
J. A. Brown, President, Rev. J. It.
Orieucr, Secretary, and Rev. A. Phil,
lippi, Treasurer.
The reports upon the state ol rtli-
giou, at a whole, permuted rather a
confused account, from the fhet that
the information given waa baaed
a poo no definite order ; bat to pea
veut this in future a given form sad
subject were adopted, according to
which reports ate hereafter to he
atade.
All the clerical members of Synod
were in attendance except Rev. Prof.
Youce, who wen detained by illness
in bis family.
Tbe Synod durtng the year too
tained a loss in tbe death of Rev.
Prof, J. G. Frey, whom we all loved
and respected so highly.
We, intentionally, enquired of
aorue, supposed te be disaffected to
wards the Scnthern General Synod,
sa to our withdrawal fbiu it, and
were glad to find leas o( that linpv
sition than we expected, or than has
heretofore exists 1; indeed, the Syo
od is finding that there Is not eo
great a difference of views held
within it as at owe turn was sop
posed. Everyth tug is betag harvaon.
ised, sad we expect an active effiwt
in theadvancement of onr /feathers
Church. Wo frequently notice inti
mat ions, in onr Northern church pa
per*, to the effect that tbe .Southern
General Byuod ie about to die, and
can no longer lustaiu a paper, and
hence there is much secret esjoiciag
in tbe hope that a few store dollars
wil! be spent in supporting a North
em journal, and that the eoogregs
turns in tbe Booth will unite with
some body whose claims these papers
present. Fur the comfort sod in
attraction of all wash penman*, tt
would be well if they coo Id attend
the sessions of our Synods and see
how things work. H’s firmly htlter*
that the existence of saw So*therm
Church oryamisatum of thm Omeml
Synod is mart certmin to-day thorn it

»i Ihe Committee of the Synod of

cHwed Dr. S. S. Schmucker, present
ed tbe following report, which waa
•wnimooslv adopted:
**Yoqr committee charged with the
»<1 office of giving expression to the
Ming* of this Synod, in commou
f itb the whole church, in regard to
hw death of 8. 8. Sehmncker, D. D.,
report, That in this painful dispen-
of divine Providence, the
dmrch ha* been bereft of one of its
brightest ornament*, and most emi-
,!eu % asefui servants.
For fifty years Dr. Schroncker has
ooI J occupied some of the high
'*’# snd most responsible positions in
•be church, but so employed tbe ad
'antageg thus afforded him in coir
•tttion with hi* whole time, hi*
highly cultivated intellect, and pr-
••fcsr personal qualifications for nse-
ftdneKs, as to fasten upon our Church
J£f' 'ts institution* impression* ot
<i hs*tened gratitude and affectionate
•^roories; therefore,
B&olved, That we heartily and
^ply deplore the loss of this faith-
fal aad eminently useful servant of
God. • ’
Voiced, That we hereby assure
J 1 ^ institutions wbicb be served so
“*8 a,, d faithfully, and also his
^ken and painfully bereaved fam-
of onr heartfelt spmpatby, firmly
ottering, that painfully as wc fed
®nd mourn onr loss in this sad be
r feYemanX it is his unspeakable and
**nal gain.
