HOPE REPUBLICAN. The Moravian Synod. PROCEEDINGS OF THE SESSION JUST CLOSED AT HOPE. WEDNESDAY, MAY 18. The Synod convened at 9 a. m., with the Rev. Edw. J. Regennasin the chair. After suitable devotional exercises and the necessary preliml-. naries, the following permanent officers were elected; President —Hon. Jacob Blickensdorfer. of Oakland, Mo. Vice-president—Rev. E. J. Eegennas, Hope. Secretary—Rev, John Greenfield, ■of Whiting, Kansas, Treasurer—Mr. J. Charlton Rominger, Hope. The afternoon session was devoted principally to the reports of pastors. These were exhaustive, interesting and stimulating. The Synod believes that great stress should be laid on this and other distinctively spiritual parts of its work. In the evening the regular Synodal sermon was preached by Rev. RegenDas, according to appointment. He drew a parallel between the church of Philadelphia, described in Revelations, and the Unitas Fratrum. Whether or not the latter deserves the eulogy, all must admit the eloquence with which this well-kntfwn Moravian clergyman fulfilled his ■commission. THURSDAY. This day was also devoted to the reports of clergy and delegates, interspersed with other business. The standing committees were announced by the chair. At noon the Synod was received and entertained by the ladies of the Moravian church in the chapel. Bishop Yah Vleck presided at the post-prandial exercises, convulsed the assemblage with Ms humor, and then called on various brethren. The Synod herewith expresses its thanks to the Hope ladies for their cordial and generous hospitality. The evening service was devoted to home missions. Rev. John Greenfield gave an interesting account of .Ms work in Kansas, Rev. R. Weinland, of Port Washington, O., followed with a thoughtful address on methods in home mission work, and Rev. C. R. Kinsey, of Fry’s Valley, O., closed with an excellent speech on the significance of such ehurchly ■effort in relation to the country. FRIDAY. The congregational reports were continued. The committees, being now organized, began their distinctive work. The communicant membership of the district is at present about 1,700. Nearly $11,000 was raised in 1890-91 for church support.

A country minister of the gospel, probably not a thousand miles away from “Cydervillc Sirkut,” recently took permanent leave of his congregation in the following pathetic words: ‘‘Brothers and sisters, I come to say good-bye. I don't tlunk.God loves this church for none of you ever died. I don’t think you love each other because I never married any of you. I don’t think you love mo because you have not paid me anything for my pastoral work for two years, and your donations have been soft sheet white butter, mouldy fruits and wormy apples, and by their fruits ye shall know them. Brothers and sisters, I am going away from you to a better place. I have been called to be chaplain of the northern penitentiary at Michigan City. I go to prepare a place for you. Good-bye.—Fair-mount Times.
