The Methodist Episcopal Church is
now throwing and has for years past
: thrown her mighty influence in favor O!
slavery and during the past year she
has even joined hand with the wicked to
he'd &c up the wav of those who have, in
the name oftheir divine master, at great
sacrifice of property and at the risk Of
their lives, been pleading the cause ofthe
oppressed. Things have now come to a
crisis. God seems to say to the church
thus far has thou come, but thou shalt 90
no farther We have therefore come to
stand; and we need look for no more
prosperity until we repent OF our sin, let
the oppressed go free and break every
yoke.
That your readersmay know thai In
not alone in these views, will insert an
article from the St Louis Chronicle, the
editor of which, living as he does in the
midst Of slavery and of Methodism too,
must certainly be we'll qualified to Judge.
us there not q Cause ?-The Western
Christian Advocate after stating the fact
that there has been decrease in the num-
Der of Methodists in the United States,
during the past year, proceeds to state
what, in his opinion, may be some of the
causes OF this unusual and unhappy re-
suit
In our opinion, the Advocate has
overlooked the chief difficulty in the way
ofthe prosperity, not only Of the Mrtho-
! DIST hut of every other section of the Pro-
testant Church in this country, and that
is the course which they take in reference
! to slavery. We look for no more pros
per;ty, no more revivals, no more glori
Gus outpourings of the spirit of God, unit
this Achan is removed from the Christian
, Camp.
Let the next General Conference O
the Methodist Fl iscoraI Church take the
righ stand on dis subject Let them
ccme ont boldly, and bear the same testi
mcny On this subject that John Wesley
did, and the captivity Of he church wi!
soon lie turned. What though il SHOULD

at the k S. Of even ere half of their mum

with the returning favor of Heaven Ant
how soon would all losses. however great

The next General Conference of tn
Methodist Episcopal Church, or the mex
, General Assembly Of the PRESBYTERIAN
Church, have either of them in it's power
, and much more both, to strike blol
which shall reach the conscience Of eve
ry slave holder in this nation, and nevc
cease TO disquict him until he lets 90 hi

But will they do it? Let US hope So"
l have only to say, for the encourage
mtnt Of our friends, that although thcr
! has been a decrease in the connexion

Barre, March 25, 1896.
Vermont telegraph. [volume] (Brandon [Vt.]) 1828-1843, 1836-04-21

Messrs WALToN-In the 27th num-
Der Of the Waterman two articles were
published, taken from the Methodist
Protestant" which, together with some
editorial remarks are calculated to give
your readers wrong impression respect
ing the cause Of the decrease in the Meth
odist Episcopal Church.
With regard to the editorial remarks |
have nothing to say, only that the diyis-
ion Of which you speak docs not exist in
the Methodist Episcopal Church. The
" protestant MethOdists," being entirely
a distinct body, have no more connection
with the Methodist Episcopal Church
than the Prcsbyteri2ns, or Congregation
al;s*S You will therefore readily per-
ccive that our church is not "dividvd
against itself,' in such a sense IS your
readers might naturally suppose from
your remarks; and that therefore the d.
vision of which you speak has not been
the cause of the present declension.
Neither does it appear to me at all prob,
able that the cause of this decIension is tc
be found, as intimatcd by the "MethoJjs
Protestant" either in the official process
against the ministers and members Of Oul
church nine years ago, or our treatment
Of the "MethOdist Prott slant Church " a
the present time.
How far our Church has been to blame
in this, | am unable TO say, nor do sup
; pose that you wish to open your column
, for the discussion of this subject. On
? thing, however is certain, even if we hav
been to blame, as the Methodist Protes
, tant' supposes, yet this is far from bein!
: our greatest sin; indeed, it dwindles int
! nslgnif2ance and is hardly worth men
! tioning, when compared to that sin whc
. we, with the "Protestant Methodists
e and nearly every denomination in the nc
n ton, have been guilty Of And as w
Il have each beam in Our own eye, IIeay
n IT with the editor CT the Methodist Pro
e testant' to say whether he thinks thu
e either Of US shall be likely to succeed
e PIucking the mote out Of his brothers,
l.. The sin to which allude, and for whic
| conceive that God is now visiting h
is Jud gment by diminishing our number
and in other ways not to be misunde
70 stood, is the sin of cnslaving our fello
le men, and thereby converting them in
n, mere goods and chatels.

THINGS IN SWITZERLAND.

Mr.. Brooks, in one of his interesting
letters dated at Payerne, in Switzerland,
Sept LIST says:
"Freybourge, the capital of the Canton
of that name was the first town of impor-
lance, we entered into, after leaving Berne.
The way is rather hiliy--mountainous
somewhat, but the road, like all the roads,
was excellent. A century TO come, will
bring us up to the continent in making
rouds. Pretly little valleys were peeping
out ut every town we made and every pass
we surmounted. The Swiss cottages were
sprinkled over them like flowers upon the
trophed arch for valley here is so often
hemmed in by mountain sides, that il costs
no fancy to convert them to the arch that
the clouds are waiting. English neat
ness about the doors is all that a Swiss
cottage needs to make tperfcet, But az

JUDGE WHITE ON MASONRY.

1t now appears that Judge White never
was mason; and that the never joined the
society for the very sound reason that he
would not 90 hoodwinked into the assump-
ton ofany obligations the nature OF which
he must be ignorant of until they were inn
posed on him. He also inlimates that his
impressions are verysstrongly against ma
sonry, so much SO that as he has had little
opportunity to examine its oalhs, he 10
apprehensiye that he might do injustice TO
masons were he to express what he feels
Oh the subject. SO far it is very well, and
in truth we would sooner trust to the anti
masonry of Judge White upon this frank
and honest letter, than TO General Harrison
with his five twaddling answers. Judge
Whites opinion against masonry, added to
that of air. Calhoun, will not be without
effect at the South, where antimasonry has
not yet been known. We hope they will
be widely difiused there. We like to see
antimasonry in all parties. 1t is gratifying
fact, highly fattering TO our cause, that al
though there are four candidates for the
Presidency, no party has brought forward
mason or one friendly TO ireemasonry.
Formerly none but masons were in the
field.

LETTER OF JUDGE WHITE.
WdShington, Dec 9, 1888.

Gentlemen: Your letter dated the 4th
instant and small volume on the subject
OF Masonry, were handed TO me on the
evening of the 18th instant, to which beg
leave to return the following answer:
/ am not now and never have been a
mason. / have never felt u wish or willing
ness 10 Join any society, the objects, tho
principles, or the rules of which, as well
as the duties and obligations, it would inn
pose on me, must remain ignorant of un-
ill after become member. As this must
be my situation in regard TO the masonic
society, ] never applied to any lodge for
admission.
Never having had any connection with
the fraternity, | have had very little oppor-
tunity, until within very few weeks past,
of making myself acquainted with the oaths
taken 10y masons, or with the obligations
! they feel themselves under to their society.
| Thus situated and having but little time
| to devote to an examination of the book
sent me, think it would be ndiscreet TO
pronounce u hasty opinion, which might do
! injustice 10 Il body of men, many of whom
are respectable, or to myself If upon full
information or further reflection, should
believe that my present impressions were
| incorrect.
Under these circumstances, hope that
YOU will be satisfied that I mean no
| disrespect. when ! decline any answer TO
the last question contained in your letter.
With sentiments ofroSpect,
ID L. WHITE

in having learning; for he thereby has
more ways Of exposing himself.
