THE METHODIST CHURCH CASE, which is n
suit brought by the representatives of the Gen
eral Conference (South) to recover from the
Northern Conference of the same church seven
or eight hundred thousand dollars, claimed for
them as part owners Of the general fund pre-
vious to the separation, on account of differ
ences growing out of the question of slavery,
was commenced on Monday morning, in the
United States District Court, in New York, be-
fore Judges Wilson and Belts. The courtroom
is said to have been crowded, and a number of
Methodist clergymen were present. The gen
eral fund, which is the object in controversy,
is at this time invested in the Methodist Book
Establishments Of Ohio and New York, and in
the charitable fund of Philadelphia. Mcssrs.
Reyerdy johnson and ID. Lord appear for the
plaintiffs, and Messrs- George Wood and Rufus
Choate for the defendants, The Hon. Thomas
Ewing has also been retained as counsel for
the plaintiffs The case is deeply interesting
one as regards the parties and the principles
involved.

"ONE OF THE Bo-HoYs. "

A QUEER INcIDENT.-The correspondent OF
the Portland 1dUertiser, writing from Augusta,
tells the following story:
Among the many incidents and anecdotes
which usually grow out of the organization of
new legislature, | have just been told one which
is worth relating, especially as coming from the
source it does, it must be presumed to be true,
and pretty we'll illustrates the zeal with which
electioneering is sometimes carried on here. A
large, energetic, military-looking man, this
morning met Rev. Mr.. Judd in the crowd Of
members on their way to the State-house. and
mistaking the reverend gentleman for a mem
ber, Immediately began, rs they walked along
together, to urge upon him his claims to be
made Major General. This was pretty Sc
we're test to the reverend gentleman's peace
principles, but he listened very politely and
attentively to the mans story-the usual story
Of his "services to the party" &C., SC, until
he finally wound up with direct appeal to him
for his aid and assistance in the matter.
81 say, my friend'' said he, with an en-
phatic gesture and an expression not fit for me
to write, much less to be made to n reverend
gentleman of ultra peace principles, /" say, l
want to be made Major General and now,
will you help me-" ...... s..... a.. ..,...s,
doubt whether the reverend gentleman en-
tirely suppressed smile; but turning to the
candidate and with all the solemnity which be-
longed to the subject and occasion, replied: 81
will pray for you, my friend!"
The man stared. He did not fully compre-
hend the meaning Of the answer, but it flashed
upon him in its full force, when the Speaker
called upon the members to "attend to the SER
vices of the Chaplain" The gentleman who
who had promised to pray for him arose, and
prayed very feryently for him and all the other
members. . ...... .... ...... y. ...,.......
twill be remembered that, some years ago,
the Legislature took umbrage at o peace sermon
Of Rev. DR.. Judd, which he preached in his own
pulpit, and from that time, | believe, he, has
never been permitted to officiate as Chaplain in
the House until this morning. II is little Gu
rious that his restoration should have been at

man Major General ta f....

THE WAY OF THE woRLD.-If some poor devil
without habitation, money or friends, is charged
with violation of law, an account of all the
circumstances is given MS warning to evil-doers
and defence to the community against the
perpetration of crime from such agents; but let
a well-dressed individual with u fair exterior,
money at command to secure friendly aid,
with shrewdness enough to evade positive de-
tection-let such, who have in the opinion Of
those familiar with their history been violating
law for lifetime, and been imposing upon the
community, be charged with their crimes, a
studied silence is observed--nothing to guard
the public against the imposters is said, and he
may continue to outrage justice with impunity
