The METHODIST CHURCH PROPERTY QUEs.
TIoN.-We learn that the Methodist Episcopal
Church South have, after some delays, com.
menced legal proceedings for the recovery OF
what they claim as their share of the church
property, according 10 the forms of1he ''p'an
of separation" mutually agreed on blythe North
and South at The General Conference in lS46,
hut afterwards declared 10 he unconstitutional
by the North Church, at the General Confer.
ence in 1s4s. The gentlemen empowered To
conduct the writ-Rev. DR.. Bascom and others
have caused writ to be served on the trus-
tees of the chartered fund ofthe Church, re-
,urnable al the July term the United States
Court Tor the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
Itsre,ns probable that the second reference to
the matter by The Church North to its annual
conference will result more favorably than the
first, and that the desire to arbrate he difficulty
will be generally expressed, and the South
probably design only to be ready to prosecute
their claims in case of a second failure OF tie
annual conference to authorize an amicable ad.
iustment.-N Y. Com. Advertiser.

METHODIST CHURcM DIFFICULTIES. Son
The 9Th inst. great excitement prevailed at
Alexandria D. G, originating in the recent di-
vision of The members of the Methodist Epis.
copaI Church, on the subject of slavery, and
the organization of two official bodies. The
Church, the only one Of that denomination in
the City, was taken possession of by that por.
ton of the members officiating with The Church
South, who claimed TO be the legal representa-.
tives of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and
entitled to the building. The difficulty has
been disposed Of, for The present. by the parties
agreeing to deliver the Meeting house-inlo the
hands of the Sheriff, to be retained by him
until the whole matter is finally settled by the
legal tribunals.
