METHODIST CHuRcH-Soutk aud NORTH
A correspondent Of the Pittsburg Advocate,
writing from New York, says that counsel in
the suit ofthe Methodist Church, South, against
the Methodist Episcopal Church, for its share
of Church property, are making progress, and
the Ease will probably be tried at the April
term of the Circuit Court in New York city
We trust that the correspondent is right, and
that the suit will be tried and determined with
out delay. The Church South is entitled to
her just proportion ofthis property, and we have
no desire to see the whole fund swallowed up
in expenses arising from long protracted law
suits.

GOVERNMENT EXPENSES. - With about
forty millions Of revenue, and debt of an
hundred millions hanging over the Govern
ment, it Is estimated that the expenses Of
the present year will not be less than dfty
millions of dollars. 1t is truly alarming to
'ook upon the appropriation bills that were
before Congress. They amount to nearly
forty-fve millions of dollars, as follows:
The deficiency bills, amounting to about
81, 500, 900 civil and diplomatic, $780,
600; army and ordnance and Notifications,
$12, 500, 900; West Point Academy, $500,
900; navy, $40, 600, 900 Indian expenses,
50, 900, 600; post office, SIS, 500, 900; Mex
lean indemnity, $4,000, 900; light house,
$500, 900: coast survey, $3.50, 900; pensions,
81, 500, 900; total, $780, $50 900.
In addition to the above, we may men.
ton hat a river and harbor bill, providing
for the squandering of about two millions
of dollars, failed solely for the want of time.
The result of the movements with reference
to it, demonstrated clearly that that, or a
similar measure, will be adopted by the next
Congress. M ..,.,.,
Five millions may be set down to the ac-
tual expenditures for the usual indefinite
appropriations.
1t is now evident that under the present
order of things, no part Of the existing debt
can be met by the receipts from customs.
So far from this, there will not be a suffi
cheney of means derived from this source, to
meet the current expenses of the Govern
ment. The nation, under the auspices OF
the present corrupt and proaigate Admins
%tratlon, will become involved in a still more
burdensome debt. And this presents to the
eye a picture of bankruptcy and distress trl-
ly fearful to contemplate. The career of the
country is downward and we fear that I'M
less a check is interposed by the States
themselves to the wild and unauthodsed
schemes of the Federal Government, it will
not be long before it will become a grand
consolidated despotism-a complexion 10
which it is rapidly tending.
The people of the South, above all Others,
are interested in these matters. They have
to bear the chief burdens of the Governments
whether they grow out Of a war in DE-
fence OF the honor of the nation, or OF aP-
preparations for the benefit of favored class
es at the North. Notwithstanding the TER
ritories obtained from Mexico have all been

House Of Representatives shall consist of
233 members-that so soon as the enume.
ration of the inhabitants of the United States
shall be returned, the Secretary of the In.

JUDICIAL lMPEAoHMENT.-At the re.
cent session of Congress, Mr.. Howard.
a representative from the State OF Tex.
as, presented a memorial, asking for
the impeachment of Judge John c..
Watrous, District Judge for the Unit>
ed Stats for Texas. Among other char
ges are the following. That said
Watrous was engaged in the sale, pur-
chase, and transfer of fraudulent land
certificates to a very large amount, in
open violation of an act OF Congress
of the Republic of Texas prohibiting
the same, and imposing very severe
penalties on those who were so engag.
ed, since his appointment as Judge, in
the practice of the law, in giving opin-
ions and otherwise in violating the
statutes of the Congress of the United
States. The Legislature of the State
of Texas, being apprized Of the facts
above stated, passed a joint resolution
requesting the said John G. Watrous to
resign his Office as judge; but at the
next session of the federal court for
the district of Texas the said Watrous
procured the grand jury to make a pre-.
sentiment OF, report, by means of false
statements, generating him from the
offences and misdemean ors charged.
The specification of these acts OF
misconduct are made as an appendix
to the report, and are among the prin-
ted documents. e'.aJ
The memorial was referred TO the
Committee N the Judiciary, but we
do not learn that they took any action
upnn it.-N o. P,cayune.

MECHANICS AND LAWYERS. The N. Y,
Mirror has the following, which shows the
Just estimate which is now being placed
upon mechanics:
The Bar is no longer the resort of ambi-
tious youths of our country, while the me-
chanical departments are preferred. There
are now thirty young gentlemen in this city
that have received a liberal education, who
are serving their time as shipvrights, arch
fleets and carpenters. In a few years the
United States will have the most accom-
plished mechanics in the world, A new
class is springing up, who will put the pre-.
sent race of mechanics in the shade aud n
union Of a substantial education with me-
chanical skill, will effect this. Indeed, al
ready could we name some mechanics who
are adept mathematicians, and acquainted
with French and German, and able to study
the books in those languages connected with
their vocation. Heretofore fond fathers
were wont to educate their sons as doctors
or lawyers, to insure their responsibility and
success. The day is past. Mechanics now
take the lead. and in a few years will supply
the larger portion of the State and Federal
Legislature.
