After some minor amendments had boon adopted the resolution was agreed to.

Sonator Wilson (la.), from tho commltteo oil the judiciary, reported the following bill as a substituto for the original-package liquor bill now under consideration in tho Senate: "That wlit'u any Intoxicating liquors shall tie transported from one State or Territory to another, or from any f.irolgu country, such liquors Khali, when the actual and continuous transportation of the same shall have terminated, be coiiHldcred to havo ceased to be the subjects of Inter state commerce and be part of the common mass of property within the State or Territory and subject to tho respective powers of the State or Territory in respect of nil police regulations or prohibition regulation or taxation."

The Senate then resumed consideration of the naval appropriation bill, the ponding question being on Senator Cockrell's (Mo.) amendment to strike out the provision for the construction of three heavily-armed battle-ships at a cost of $4,000,000 each.

Senators Cockrell, Voorheos (Ind.) and Blp.ir (N. II.) opposed any incrcaso in the navy, declaring it to bo extravagant and unnecessary.

Sonator Dutler (S. C.) said ho would not only vote for tho appropriation for three battle-ships and a cruiser, but ho regretted that it was not in his power to vote for eight battle-ships Instead of three, as ho should do without hesitation. While ho did not look for war between the United States and Groat ltritain, it should be remembered that there were some delicate and difficult quostions pending between tho two governments, lie hoped that thoy .might bo settled by .ji^pctlatlon ctr by. arbitration but so long as human nature was a* it ivos It was safe to assume that the I nited

SAIIATOOA, N. Y., May 27.—At the mooting of the Presbyterian Oenoral Assembly yestorday morning, nftor the approval of the minutes, tho roport of tho committee on synodical roiords was road.

The assembly, in approval of an overture from the Wisconsin synod, re afilrmcd its deliverance of 1870 in favor of retaining tho reading of the Bible in common achools.

The roport of the standing committee on publication was delivered by its chairman, Dr. Howard Crosby. He IIo thought that Sunday-school and missionary work and tho preparation of Sunday-sclioo!. books and losson holps and of denominational helpB wero woll done, whatovor any one may allege as to the business managomont.

A tele^l-am was read conveying the fraternal greotlng of tho Baptist mlS' Slonnry societies in session at Chicago.

Tho committee on finance reported tho expenses of tho assembly provided for and ft balance in tho treasury of about $72,000.

Tho report of the committee on organization of churches was presented by Dr. Hodge, of Ilartford. Relating to a request from two colored presbyteries to bo treated as indepondent In thoir application for missionary aid, thesamo as white presbytories, tho report of tho committee on the froedmen favored keeping them In subordination to the frendmen's board.

Dr. Booth, of Now York, protested indignantly against the recommendation of tho board. IIo said it tended to dostroy the self-respect of our colored brothron.

It was voted after an animated de bate—170 to 125—to grant the request of tho colored presbytery.

Tho report of tho committee on deaconesses was prosented by Prof. Warfield. of Princeton Seminary. It recognized as fact tho claim that women served in the apostolic church In nn ollico similar to that of deacons, und held that they may be elected and set apart in a similar way. This is not a step in the direction of giving them license to preach.

It was voted that tho recommendations of tho committee bo accepted— viz., that there bo sent down to tho presbytories an overturo for such change in tho form of government as would allow deaconossos and sotting them apart for thoir ollico.
