ECCLESIASTICAL TESTIMONY
AGAINST SLAVERY.

The Free Protestant Methodist Church, at its
second Annual. Conference, held in Indiana on
the 9Th Of October, adopted the following reso-
lutions:
Resolved, That in the judgment of this Con-
ference, Slavery under all circumstances is a
moral evil and a sin against God. who hath
taught us to do unto all men as we would have
them do unto us.
Resolved, That war and bloodshed as now
carried on by this nation, is incompatible with
the spirit of The Gospel.
We hope that this church may prove worthy
of its Free name. Its conduct in making d.
rect application of the principles of the gospel
to the great and popular sins of this age and
country, furnishes striking contract with the
course of most of the ecclesiastical bodies of
our land, who usually spend the time of their
convention in discussing metaphysico-theologi-
cal theories, of little practical importance, or in
deciding such grave ethical questions as weth-
er or not man may marry his deceased wile's
sister, &C., or in passing solemn censures on
sins generally condemned by the community,
