METHODIST GENERAL CONFERENCE AND
SLAVERY

The General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal
church, which has been in session some two weeks
in New York, has been and deeply auiilted upon the
all-absorbing question Of Slavery. Until the present
time this denomination have been enabled to keep
themselves free from any great excitement upon the
subject Us ministers have a body been rather con-
servatve, and have held themselves aloof from the
movements Of the abolionst and the laty believe,
have voice in their conferences. But the question
has fully come up before the Conference and is
receiving full and earnest dscussion--one that may
be momentous in its results.
Singular as It may seem, the question came up from
a slaye-hoding State. The Baltimore Conference, sus-
pended of their preachers until he should free him
self from slavery with which he had become connected
by marriage. An appeal was taken from this decision
c. the conference, to the General Conference Amer
an excg debate, the decision Of the conference was
cosyinsHD by vote Of about two thirds Of the mem
bers.
But the most important debate has arisen upon q
resolution introduced into tie Conference, requesting
Bishop Andrews to resign his Office Of Bishop in con-
sequence Of having connected himself with slavery by
marriageupon this resolution very able and interest
ing debate has been in progress many days and ao Of
tho exciting character il has been conducted with
great good temper and christian feeling The decision
Of the conference viii doubtless have immense in
uence upon the welfare of the church. The southern
members contend that the passage of the resolution will
strike deadly blow at Methodism in the South and
viii free 1900 minister's and 10000 members good
Mehodsts entered the church, to secede from
the general conference. The northern members say
secession is better than schismihat if the resolution
does not pasr the whole afsth will be Of gun
powder, and the Bishop fire brand in the midst that
the peace of the southern church requires its passage
for otherwise it will be overwhelmed with abolition fire
and that slave holding Bishop against the policy
constitution and established usage Of the church.
We shall await the action Of the Conference with in
tereSt This movement Of the methodist church, is hui
another indication Of truth the signs Of which
paipabe TO be mistaken. II is this mcn-Amer
cans--either church members or politicians -
cannot longer shrink from responsibility upon tins
great question Of slavery II will force tselfupon them
in Ecclesiastical conventons-in populous arscmbes-
at the ballot boxes-in the Halls Of Legislation II is
the great question Of the age, and will absorbis alb
sorbing all other questions II must be me-rnet bold,
met in the spirit of '76 saveryhis blightne curss
upon country and foul stigma upon our fame, MUST
PAIL and that speedily and those who blindly or viii
fully seek to stay its destruction, may be crushed
with it and by il.
