General Martin Witherspoon Gary died at his residence in Edgeild on Saturdav morning of blood poisoning, at the akge of fifty-two years. For a week he had been threatened with jaundiee, bul on the diy before his death lie Attended a municipal meet iNg letwunig home he was taken v -:!. T i ablea( nedical skill was c:&ed in, butt iotIhing relieved him, and at ten o'clock on Satiidiar mnorning he' :iet death without a strug Thu. has passed away one of the marked men of South Carolhiia, one who by his strong personality, his aggriessivenesq Antl his originality of thought and ac, ion had Inade warimer friends and lptehl ps more determined Opponen0ts thun nay other prominent inait of his day. Those who knew him best say lie never forgot a friend, and never proved unfaithlil to an alli ance,.ndwa General Gary was born in Cokes bury, Abbeville county, and was a atudent of the South Carolina College. Emnbraciig the plractiee of law lie moved to Edgefield, and made it his home until the time of his death. At the beginning of the war he entered the Hampton Legion as a captain, and thence rose to the rank of brigadier general. He fought to the end, and when Lee surrendered at Appomattox General Gary turned his command over to a subordinate and left the army withont surrendering. It was on the sixteenth anniversary of thiA day that General Gary died. After the war General Gary resumed the practice of law, as partner with Sena tor Butler, and this copartnership con tinued for a number of years. In 1876 he entered politics actively as candi date for State Senator from Edge field, and carried that old county by such a rousing majority as to win universal plaudits. lie was a candli date for United States Senator, but General Butler bore off the prize. For four years General Gary was a prominent member of the Senate. In 1880 he was run for Governor but did not receive the nomination, and since that time he has not been in active politics. General Gary was successful as a man of business, and learned as a lawyer. Ho was a laborious student on every subject which he undertook to handle, and bla library was choice anud select. It Is impossible for anyone, with so * . .marked an individuality, to avoid giv ing aind taking hard blows in a long - . public career, but as his death sent a shock through the State, so will it be the signal for a ttuce ; and all can bend * ~over his grave and pay tribute to le memory. May he rest in peace. aswBllL PR EsADT E T . Proceeding. ofthei Spring Resion--An~ in. - teresting Meeting -Sevorai lsnporant Mat. taNroRmD Ven 11n3 u1117 AKn EUnaLD.)i Bethel Presbytery met in the town of Lancasterville oni Friday night, April 1, and for' four days enjoyed the generous hospitality and unwearied attentions of its refinied and courteous people. Most of the Presbytery had naever visited the .place before, and were surprised at the large number - of handsome private edifieen. and not less so at the commodious and elent church, which remains as a lasting memom lal of the zealous pastoral labors of the R1ev. 1. N. Craig, now of Holly * Springs, Miss. The retiring Moderator being ab * ~ sent, on account of sickntess, Presbyte ry was at hiis request opened with a sermon by the R1ev. HI. B. Pratt. when the Rev. W. W.Mills, the last Moder aitor present, called 1he body to order and opened its Ressions with prayer. The Rev. T. R. English was elected Moderator, and Mr. W. H. Witherow tetnporary clerk. Presbytery adjourn ed on Tuesday night, after a harmoni ous and delightful meeting. It de serves to be noticed that an unusually large amount of important business was transacted, and yet two sermons were preached every day, all attended by deeply interested and profited congregations, in addition to the usual af-orof deuvotionaal xecses wit which each day's sessions began. It is fervently hoped that this important and to all parties delightful meeting may be eminently productive of good. On Sunday the Methodist and Bap tist congregations worshipped. with the Presbyterian, there being preach nog In no other church except the colored Methodist served by members of the Presbytery. In the morning the ii ~ Moderator, the Rev. T. 11. English, preached a sermon of remarkable pow 6 er. The communion services were conducted by the Roy. J. Lowrle Wil K son and the Rev. D. Harrison. In the p 1 afternoon the R1ev. 8. L. Wilson and the R1ev. J. C. McMullen made inter esting'addresses to the Sunday schools; and the R1ev. (G. A. Tronhelim preached at night with muchb acceptanco and power. The moost imiportani matters paned upon by Presbytery were the follow Ing, and in the following order: 1. The Iev Dr. Mack, fliancial agent of 1he Columbia Seminary, made a report oi Its condition and prospects, which was every way satisfactory. He urged the speedy realization of the $4,000 Presbytery proposed to raise at its last nmeting. of which some few churches had paid their apportion ments In ftill, while a good many have paid nothing it. all as yet. lie stated anid exphlliied the plin of the Board of Trustees to aise In two years time the permuanent endowment of each chair to $40,000, and gave a pledge that the Board would do its utmost to equip the institution with the ablest amen in the gift of the church, provided we would press our churches up to the prompt payment of their several ap portionmenIts, and app:ove the Board's proposal by authorizing its financial agent to raise at least $4,000 more within our bounds, by private solici tation, during the next two years. As Bethel Presbytery met first, he laid rent stress 01n her action, as practical l slaping the course of the whole yn(od. With great. unanimity and thankfniess to God for His uiexpect ed mitreies, Presbytery responded, granting all the Doctor requested. 2. The reports from the churchet uider the new plan adopted last faili revealed the tact that with God's bless ing and with prudeince aid patience on our part, we may justly hope for the largest and happiest results from it. Very much needs to be done to put many of our churches in a healthy conditioin; but this plan of reports seeis eillietly ciionducive to that re suit, and the be'ginning IN as every way a hopelfil one. 3. The reports of standing and spe Cl Conhimiuittees were presented as usual. That of the committee on do mnestic missions awakened great Inter est, and elicited warm debate, in vir tue of the recommendation with which it closed. to wit, that "a miiintun of ministerial support be assessed upon each of the churches under ourl care, for less than w hich amotunt Presbytery will not hereatter sanction the rela tion of cither pastor or stated supply." The object proposed was to ascertain as far as possible tlie pecuniary ability ofeach of onr churches, the weaker oics particuilarly, and to fix equitably the least anount that can reasonably be expected of them for the support of the gospel within theirown bounds; which amount they may exceed by as much as they pl)ease in order to obtain any particuilar preacher, but less than which aiount Prresbytery will not al low then to offer to any man for a given proportion of his time. After much warm but friendly d(iscuissiOni, it became quite apparent that the recoi mendation wits mnisapprehended by a good many of the brethren, whereupon it was recommitted to a special coi mittee of three ministers and three elders, charged to work up the whole matter, and report at the next meet ing of Presbytery, presenting at the same time a scheme of assessments such as the recommncdation contemn plates. 4. The Sessional records of Bethes da Church gave occasion to a warm discussion respecting a ruling elder and a private mfeiber residing beyond Its bounds, whom this Session thought best to except from a list of thirty or forty whom they transferred, as the book requires, to the churches within whose bounds they now residie. Pres bytery decided that it was for the in terest of religion and of good followv ship that they also should unite with the ehurches withIn whose bounds they reside; and by special resolution the Bessions of all our churches were directed to give eft'ect to the provis ions of our Book of Church Order, and assumne jurisdiction over all memr bers and officers residing for twelve months unmistakably within their bounds, notifying the Sessions con cerned of thei'r action. To remove all doubt on this difficult matter, which Presbytery a year ago declined at that time to press, it was voted that a mem ber should not be regarded as havIng removed beyond the bounds of a con g regation, so long as he attended habitually its ordmances of publice worship. 6. On Monday night a profoundly interesting meettnig ini the interest of Foreign Missions wvas h eld, at which several addresses were made, anmd a collectIon of forty-one or forty-t wo dollars was taken up. 0. According to notice given on Saturday morning, the R1ev. H. B. Pratt Introduced on Monday afternoon the proposal of an overture to the General A esembly on the subject of theological edlucation, praying that venerable body: First, To urge upon Presbyteries a more careful exami na tion of all candidates for licenisure as to their thorough acquaintance with the Bible Itself. Second, To urge upon the boards of directors of our sgemina rles the demand for a more cop~ious, thorough and direct study of the Book they are to preach, on the part of our stuaemts, not only in private, but ini the clas-roomn. "Third, That the As sembly lend its sanction and approval to the proposal that the English Bible, old and niew version, confronted wvith aiid corrected upon the originals, in all cases of real or supposed error or other serious difference of opinion, be substituted for the Hebrew and Greek ini the exegesis of the Holy Scrip tures; and that young men of recog nized natural and spiritual gift. be admitted (subject to such limitation. amid restrictions as thme Assembly may deem necessary) on an equal and hon orable footing as students for the min istry, upon an English basis, and wvIth out aniy knowledge, present or pros pective, of the dead languages. This overtunre has spmecial and express re ference to Columbia Seminary, soon to be reorganized. The overture does not propose to supersede the study of the origi nal languages of ScrIpture on the part of such as are qualified for it; but onily to make the thorough study of the whole English Bible, under the lead of able and enthusiastIc masters, the basis of theologIcal instruction in Columbia Seminary ; and to admit non-classIcal students to a full partici patlon of its benefits. On Tuesday afternoon this overture was adoptedl with almost entire unanimity - the op position turnling on a single word which the majIority were unwilling to yield. No more important matter has ever come before the General Assem bly, and the church will await with profoundest interest its action upon thuisoverture. 7. IlavIng twanty-five ministers on our roll, Bethel Presbytery is entitled to a double representation. Thme Rev. Messrs. HI. B1. Pratt and George A. Tr'enholm, with Elders I. N. Withera and WY. Hf. Witherow, were elected commissioners to the Geneoral Assem bly. The Rev. Messrs. W. W. Mills and White and James Deaty were chosen as alternates. Presbyter a!onre10d to mIeet at Rde ay, reiday ntight, September WA811:GToN 0881P. Reorganisaston of the Cabinet Anticipated. (Correspondence of the Now York Herald. WASIIltGTON, April 9.-The general belief this evening is that both sides in the Senate are wore than ever deter mined to remain obstinate. The Re pulblican caucus held this morning wa lot fully attended, several Senators being out of towni. Several of those present desired to proceed to execu tive business, but the.largely prevail ing sentiment was in favor of "fighting it out." This determination arises out of the belief that the result of the pres Out struggle is likely to have an Im portant ef'ect on Southern politics. There are still a number of Senatoras ready to speak, and if the deadlock lasts long the Southern political situa tion will be very thoroughly ventilat ed. The Furious attacks on General Mahone from the Democratic side are thought likely to be productive of good results by the Republicans, and these appear to have made ip their niinds to show the Southern independ ents that they will stand by men like Mahone to the uttermost and at any inconvenience. Some Senators who at first doubted the advisability of placing a Southern independent like Mr. Riddleberger on the list of the Senate officers made up by the Repub lican caucus now say that as it was done they will stand hv him and elect him if ittakes all sunimer, merely to prove to the Southern independents that they may look forstanch allies and firm defenders on the Republican side. The Democrats, on their part, seem to be equally determined to prevent the election of officers before the executive business is attended to. Meantime individually and privately a number of Senators on both sides are heartily tired of the whole fuss, and it may happen any day that several will absent themsclves out of sheer disgust and thus break the deadlock. A WAY OUT OF TRE NEW YORK DIEI CULTT. There is some talk here among Re. publicans about a change in the New York plants of the administration. It Is urged that the New York collector Ship cannot be given to any New York politician of either faction without causing Ill-feeling and a break into the harmony of the party; that the true way would be to give this important place to some one from another State entirely unconnected with New York politics and having either no relations with either faction or good relations with both. The names of Glenni W. Scofield, of Pennsylvania, now Regis ter of the Treasury; Governor Foster, of Ohio; John C. New, of Indiana Chauncey I. Filley, of Missouri, an some others of less note are mentioned as the kind of men who could be use fully called to such a post. THE REFUNDING QUESTION. Secretary Windom returned here late this afternoon and went immedi. atelv to the White House to see the President. To-morrow is Cabinet day and it is believed that the plan to be pursued by the Treasury will then be determined on. It is understood that Secretary Windom found the banks ready and willinig to give him every assistance in their power to facilitate whatever plans he mnny adopt. It was understood that the banks throughout the country hold about 646,000,000 of sixes and 6160,000,000 of fives, redeem able this year, and it is thought that the decretary -nay propose to them some special arrangement in regard to these bonds, If, as h~as been suggestcd in New York, the banks could be get to agree to accept a lower rate of in terest on1 the 6200,000,000 of bonds held by them until Congress next win ter shall pass a funding act, this would help to settle the problem. It is not thought here now in well informed circles that there is sumecient authority for the issue of treasury notes awhich has been discussed. There is a growing belief that there will be a pretty thorough REORGANIZATloN( 01 TRI E CAnIINkT before the administration gets uinder fair headway. The plan o fharmnoniz ing the party by giving everybody a p iece of cake does not seem to work, because, as the grumbiers say, the plums in the cake are not equally dis trib~uted. But it is pretty certai'n thlat there will be further attempts at nego tiation looking to a peaceable settle. menit before an open deelaration of war is made. It is reported this eve ning, on what scorns good authority, that a prominent Senator has gone to New York charged with the misuionof inducing Mr. Robertson to withdraw his name or to ask the President to do so. aUARIDING THE CZAR-A dispatch freom St. Petersburg to the Times says: "The first mneasure established by the now Elective Council of Twenty-five has been to invest the city with a chain of Cossack patrols, with posts of officers and police on all the roads, so that no ingress or egress of persons is albowed until subjected to a strict in vestigation by the commanders of the posts. Not even special passports are yet permitted. A aecondc measure is now being elaborated by which every traveler arriving at a railway station will, after examination by the police, be banded over to a cabmnan who must deliver him at the destination declared to the police or promptly re port any change in the destination. A thira sneasure was proposed and vig oroitoly applauded at a general meet lig of the 228 Deputies composing tihe temporary council, but as yet the Council of Twenty-five has rentased to 5 nection the mneasure-which was that certain members of the Council should take turns in watching the streets through .which the Emperor might p ass, thus incurring grave responsi bility should anything untoward oc cur. It would be untrue to say that the Cotincil's measures are unanimous. Ily approved in St. Petersburg." fThe Rus~sian Philanthropical Society has resolved to provide fortihe families of those who have been or may be killed or 13njulred in tihe strug'gle against the Nihi lists. A special guard of troops will be formed, as during the Turkish war, for the purpose of protecting the Emperor whierever he resides. -As a purifier of the blood, Ayer's Sarsajuarli Ia has no equlal.
