The Methodist Church North.

The dsunion Of The Methodist Church,
by dividing line nearly Identical with that
which distinguished tho slavcholing and
non-slaveholding States, offers political
study both interesting and Instructive.
Considering it so, wc have read wuh
attention the proceedings Of general
meeting Of the members Of that dcnnm-
nation in the city aud county of Phila.
dclphia, held on Thursday last.
The object Of tins meeting was to Sc.
cure an expression OF opinion in favor OF d
rel rcscnlatIon Of lay members in The Con.
Gronccs. Rcsolutlonst To that effect we're
adopted with but few dissenting voices,
and call was made on the members of the
Methodist Church throughout the North, to
mite in Convention at Philadelphia in
March next, for the purpose OF pressing this
radical change Oh the General Conference
Of the Church
In tho course Of the discussion il
appeared that This spirit of innovation was
no sudden thing, but had been for some
pnc sowing It's poison in the Church In
fact the extent TO which agitation had heen
carried on the subject, was given by one OF
the speakers as his reason Tor advocating
tIe change. lie said:
"'rho effect which misrepresentation
from The laity has had upon the church
disturbing its peace. is the very reason
j would assign why wc should effect that
ehjcct 1t il impossible to suppress the
agitation only by this measure. / hope
