TITHES.—WheIe we view the incessant pains
which the Methodists take to make proselytes to
their doctrines, and have to consider, on the other
hand, the nomerous disputes and bickerings which
the issifoisisisitte subject of tithes creates between
the Cler;:ywall and his parishioners. it is as " con-
summation devoutly to be wished," that souse ac-
commodation in land should be substituted between
the parties. As these disputes depopulate the
Churches, from a foolish resentment in the farmers,
and Su consequence fill the Meeting-houses with
those who flight not go these but from this prin-
ciple.
