Corington, Dec. was an time here yesterday at the Col red Ktptist Church.

For a while it looked as if there would be a real riot in the sacred edifice. A sister of the church died, and previous to her demise she made a request that a Baptist preacher be called to say a few fitting remarks for the repose of her soul in the better land. Her friends wired Rev. Mr. Vinegar to come down from Lexington and deliver the funeral oration, The body was incased in a coffin, and a very respectable number of moarnful friends followed the remains to THSSTEMP1E RELIGIOUS WORSHIP To hear the last parting remarks due tbe dead.

They were, however, doomed to disappointment, and no funeral sermon was preached, and the body was conveyed to the cold earth without religious exercises at the church. Mr. Vinegar, it seems, has not been expounding the Bible from the pulpit according to the rules prescribed by religious bodies, aud a few weeks ago he was COMHELLED TO VACATE THE CITY. When he went to enter the pulpit of the church yesterday tbe elders of the place of divine worship made objections, an.i he was informed in language bQtJhleThes forcible and ponre that hecouia ncTex-t ercise his ministerial functions in that church. The friends of the corpse were angry, and some rather rough expressions were made concerning tho affair, and for awhile things were somewhat animated.

It was finally settled, however, by the corpse being removed from the church to tne graveyard, For Bent Chea p.
