/ A difficulty occurred al church
in Oeean county, N. j., last week,
as follows: Two appointments were
made, by two ministers, both al the
same hour, The house being a free
Westinghouse; and one Of flle min
listers coming in after the other, he,
or some Of bis friends, requested
tho former to resign bis appoint

ply with this request, the friends Of
the latter took him by the collar,
dragged him from Tue pnipir, out at
the door, handed him his bat, and
babe him depart in peace.
