h iatory of this paper, your committee find from
the evidence, to be the following: Mr. Robinson
being a member of the Masonic Lodge in this
place, about one year since was arraigned therein upon charges involving his moral and moso-
nic character, one of which charges was In sub-
atauce that be had attempted to collect off of the
equauy credible, Mill, when we hear from oar dee'd Ero. Gageby, by tha mouth of such witnesses as these, an affirmance of Mr. Mon fort's statemeat, it cannot but produce in our minds, a clear conviction that the facts are as ho repre
sents them. In view therefore, of the whole
case, vour commutes report for adoption tha
following resolutions:
Resolved, That Id view of all tha foregoing
facts and considerations, Mr. Monfort has, in our , opinion, violated no law, eilher humane or di
vine, nor yet the common courtesies of life I
On the contrary, he has in all his acts relating ! to the Church case been in the discharge of a ' high official duty, which he owed the Church of which he la Pastor, and in all respects free
from the manifestation of any malicious or vindictive spirit.
Resolved, That his course in relation to the
Masonic case is in no degree reprehensible, but
he was In the discharge of a social duty that every citizen owes his neighbor, or to any mo
ral association in his neighborhood.
Reeolved, That the whole case presents no
thing ta diminish in the smallest degree the high
respect we have entertained for him as a man,
a citizen, a christian or a Minister of the Gos
pel.
Resolved, That we feel bonnd as a Church
to sustain onr Pastor and Session in the discharge of official duties, and that the legal proceedings in this case should not Intimidate them
in their efforts to purify the Church by dealing
with disorderly members. JOHN THOMSON, JOHN HOLBY, JAMES GAGEBY, A. McKEE, J. E. HOUSER, H. T. DAVIS, C. BRYAN.
The above report was unanimously adopted,
and the following resolution passed:
Resolved, That a copy of the proceedings of this meeting be forwarded to the publishers of

Herald, and the Decatur Local Press, with a re
quest that it be published in their respective pa

George, In a moment of passion, struck his
sister in the face; but the sister, Instead of fly
ing into a (it of anger, threw her arms round
his neck, saying "O, brother, how could you
do so?"
The poor boy was wholly unprepared for such a kind return for his blow. He could not
stand before the generous affection of his sister.
His feelings were touched, and he burst ou erying,
His gentle sister took the corner of her apron
and wiped away his tears, and sought to com
fort him by saying with endearing sweetness and gsnefous affection, "Don't cry, George, you didn't hurt me much." But he only wept the more. No wonder, it was enough to make any one weep. But why did George weep? Poor tittle fellow! Would he have wept if hla sitter had struck Mm as ha struck her! Not he. But by

ble to the charge about which he had been called to testify, and a full and fair statement of the facta in the case, as Mr. Scoby understood them.
When the paper waa handed to the Master of
the Lodge he read n part of It On the tried of the libel Messrs. Scoby & Bryant both testified their full belief and opinion that the paper eeed on, was the same paper by
Mr. Monfort submitted to the Lodge as before-
said, only that it had been since mutilated as
before stated. There was no evidence showing
who took the paper from the Lodge who had
mutilated it or that it had ever been in the
hands of Mr, Monfort after he had handed it to
Bryant In the Lodge. As to the first paper Mr
Monfort defended on the ground that that paper
was a privileged communication that he had
done nothing more in that instance than his of
ficial relation to the church required alhis hands that he acted by the advice and order of the
session of the church. The other paper he In
sisted also, waa n privileged communication, It
being his evidence written, and sabanitted to the
Lodge at their request.
Mr. Robinson claimed damage. In the earn of
ten thousand dollars, and th. Jury found a
verdict in his favor of fifteen dollars. Mr Mon
fort bel'tevlna the decision to be an interference
with hie civil and religious righto, as a church
officer, and ae a witness, has appealed the case to
the Supreme court, where the whole case (alt the evidence being in the record) will be reviewed. The decision of that court w ill settle the
question of the right of church s. Lodges, and
kindred institutions to discipline their nambera.
In conclusion, your committee take pleasure
In saying that after a fall eirmtnation of the
whala matter, they find netbing to censure in
the conduct of Mr. Monfort
If he did wrong In regard to the first paper
the aeesioa is equally or more gnilty than him
self. In that event else, no offioerof a church, conld, without doing wrong, attempt to rW the church of an unworthy member. In regard to the second paper, Mr. Monfort only complied with the reque.t of a tespectable body er men, when properly called on and we do any, Uiat
In our opinion, any man, when called on as Mr
Monfort was. may de as he did, and not bo cen
surable. Of the facts detailed In bis testimony before the Ledge, it seems there was, and could

The following letter was received last week from'
fair correspondent. Mi. Prrxfcson: What do yon think of the
new fashion for female attire, such a. has been' introduced at Syracuse, N. Y .and elsewhere!
Ia our little villiage circle we have had qolte a discussion upon the subject Some contend thai
the trowsers and short skirts are not only mere utilitarian, but mare beautiful than the present
mode. Other, admit their greater utility, baC
deny their beshffy . Still others maintain that .
th. innovation has neither grace nor utility to recommend it Ia this dilemma we have agreed' to refer the matter te you, for a gentleman, if ie conceded, ta the most likely to decide impartially. At any rate, it ii the shrewd opinion of eome of ns that the Innovation will succeed or not, just in proportion as it is favored by' your ssx. Lizze Lawlu. We suspe et, from the nomme de plume ef ear' fair correspondent, that, like most people who esk advice, ah. will follow it, or not, exactly aa he plea a". Lawless she is by nature, we fear,aa well as by name. She Writes ia a dashing strait-forward style, too that shows she has not "the fear of man" before her at feast. We like her, perhaps, all the better for this. If we de test anything, it is woman who has not a mind of her own, but inclines to this ides, or that as she bsppens to bear it last discussed. Not that
we like you obstinate ladies either, who will alwayi hav. their own way but stop, was there ever a woman who did not al way. hav. her own way! If there was, where'. BarnumT However, to the point! Do we admire the ess
in trowssrs and short shirts? Most assuredly.
Lovely woman is lovely whatever be her dis
guise. 1 he ladies heaven bless them! can
not make themselves ugly except when they paint, scold, shake the children, or whip their
husbsnds. As between the new fashioned at- , lire and the old, the Kale of beauty, we think , inclines to the latter. A lady, in a flowing skirt, not overburdened with eoffee-begs and ton more, is, to our eye, lovely par excellence, especialy if her pretty feet can be seen peeping
in and out as Suckling has it, "like little mice. ' The fashion of wearing long pantalettes, ruffled, at the ankle, and which is a half way step towards tha trowsers a la Turqae, we don't like' Lawless Llzxy; for It gives a woman-cxense ns for being plain-spoken the look of a bantam. The short skirt, and full trowsers are even uglier. All women In such an attire seem to waddle. This may do for "the dear dacka.a' as some lovers and husbands call the sweet creatures; but what artiat would piiot a Diana In
such costume? If ladies wish to sit like an Ot
toman, the bagged trowMrs may answer, but if
hey would sit like civilized woman and "look their prettiest," 1st them still wear the flowing skirt. Why; among the Romans, even the' men discarded breeches, deeming thera a Gothic and barbarian invenrion, as they are. Trowsers graceful! Not even on the ugly male much less on lovely woman. So much for the question of beauty. For evening parties, dinner dress, or any home costume, we advise Lizzie Lawless toaJhere to the long and graceful robe. But, we must confess, that, for out-of-door exercise, the new fashion beats the old one. In point of utility, dead-hollow. Did you ever, Lizzie , see one of your sex get over a styleT You did. Weil, wouldn't
trowsers and short skirls have suited better, fof
that feat, than the petticoat heaven kdows how
many aha wore. Did you ever walk a muddy
street on a rainy day, or through wet grass, or
in windy weatherT Wouldn't tlie Syracuse style hate lifted better then and there? Wat
think, however, a compromise might be effected between the two fashions. We like the long, fall skirt so well that we would amend the attire' elsewhere. For instance, we would suggest that, for rainy weather, or walking in the country, ladies wear a light morocco boot, ' coming half way to the knee, and with it a skirt an inch or two, but only an inch or two ahorler than common. This would protect them from draggled skirts and wet .lockings, two serious svilej for ladies catch cold more frequently from having their ankles wetted by the alapping of a wet skirt, than from a leaky shoe. We men wear always, tn wet weather, a boot to protect the leg Can women bear exposure batter? Now, Liitie, be sensible! . Keep your beautiful, flowing, classic robes though reduce, we beg of you, the number of skirts but wear boots in rainy waaJ
ther, and don't on rainy weather sport trains!
There1, a fast a.'guaient, , Lawfefs Lizzie
which baa great force with ua as a married man,
add which, therefor., we hae reserved for onr
grand finale?" Do you comprehend? Young
mises, like yourself, ought not to have mischief1
put into their heads. You all learn soon enough as married dears, to wear the breeches mercy on us, what hav. w. said? w. beg pardon, iaJ expressibles Is what wo meant. Now, w. ask you honestly, if it is fair play to rule us and te wear th. guise of authority also. We "lords of creation" what a misnomer! are managed by you women just a. you1 please: there isn't a husband, lover, brother or father of ns all whom some dear angel can't twist round her finger Be eatiafind, then, with lb substance, and give
us the shadow. Don't take all. Let ns have
half. In other Words, rule over ua, but leave the breeches.
But in fact. Lizzie, your sex are such dear
creature, anyhow so kind ia sickness, .0 char'

concede that, if you won't "divide the spoils,"'
