Methodist Protest ant Chureh--Quek'
tim nf niviainn.

The influences that effected disruption OF the
Methodist Baptist and New School Presbyterian
Churches. are at work IN the Methodist Pfotesta''
Church which has for twenty eight years been aui'
ted body At the late session of the Pittsburgh An
nuai Conference. Circular from the western h'ei"
nv and Publishing Society, upon the SUBJECT Oh
slavery. was read 10 the Conference, and referred
toa committee of lsymen and ministers, who' AT
REORGANIZATION submitted preamble and resolu-
tions instructng the delegates to the next dene-
raj Conference 10 attend Convention which is to
be held in Cincinnati on the I'd Wednesday in No
yember, and the object of which it is believed, is
the establishment of an anti-slavery Methodist
Protestant Church. The resolution gave rise to an
animated debate but was finally amended TO
provide that the delegates going to the Cincinnati
Convention shall not thereby be prevented from
attending the General Conference next May, in
Lynchburg and shall not have power TO organize
new church. The resolution, thus amended was
adopted without opposition, though a number did
not vote at all.
The debate disclosed some curious sentiments on
the part Of one Of the Virginia speakers. Accord
ing to the report before us, which appears in the
Baltimore Methodist Protestant, Rev. Joseph
Burns, of Fairview, Virginia, who spoke at length
against the resolution, delivered himself fol

MAN. But was no more ''ravihg, idea, rant

ably defended the charges aud misrepresentation
against the South. lie desired the freedom of the
slaves of Virginia, but prayed to be delivered from
the remedy that was worse than the disease.

Capt. Hernd0n.

The press teens with tributes to the gallant
Eirginian who commanded the Central America
and who so nobly performed his duty. Says the
Virginia Sentinel:
Deep will be the regrets that will follow him to
the ocean cave where he sleeps; many the tears OF
sympathy with the stricken family.
But if he had to fall-and all have to tali,-what
time more propitious to his famey He had, thro
terrible days and nights, maintained his courage;
and composed the spirits of multitudes of men,
women and children. whose sole earthly reliance
be WAS and who scanned his countenance to read
their doom. lie had saved all the women and chill
drtn ffty-nine in number, and prepared the men
calmly to struggle with their fate. His work done.

sympathy with the SepOys.

We must confess our surprise that some respec-
table journals in the Northern States are serious
ly contending that Americans ought ''to turn Il
deaf ear to those who crave sympathy in the Bri-
fish crusade against an outraged people
We are told that Great Britain instigated the
savages to burn villages and slaughter de
fenceess women and children; and that the bar
barties inflicted upon our ancestors by the Indian
and Hessian allies of the British Government. were
as great the atrocities perpetratsd 10y the re-
yolted Sepoys. If this were ali true, it would not
justify us in exnltng over the horIid fortunes and
degradation of innocent and defenceless women
and children. Because. eighty or ninety years
ago. the Indian allies of Great Britain scalped, to-
mahawked and burned Americans. it must require
tolerahly longwinded revenge to rejoice that
poor. helpless wives aud daughters in India are
subjected to such ndiguities and crUeltes were
unknown among the most fendish savages of our
early history.
We are told that the rapacity Of gland is the
cause Of every tear and every drop Of blood that
have fallen in the East. and that the infamous
crimes of tho British in India for the last one hun
bred years, have provoked, if they do not justify,
the terrible retrbution that is being visited upon
the subjects of the Queen. "There is not crime
in the Decaogue," says the New York Daily News,
winch the Brltish nave not committed IN India.
They have robbed the defencelcss, murdered the
unprotected, violated the innocent. hired out their
armies for specified sum of money for the pur-
pose of DISCRIMINATING neighboring nation. who
had never injured them, when, as Burke asserted
more than hundred thousand people fed from
their homes to pestilentia jungles, preferring ia
mine and fever and the haunts of tigers, to the t.
ranny Of him to whom an English and Christian
Government had, for shameful lucre, sold then
substance and their blood and the honor of theii
wives and children"
Admitting all this to be true, We cannot hold the
wives and children of the present day responsible o
the crimes Of former generation,or even for those
Of the existing government. What harm have they
done, these poor women and children, that the,
should be brutality violated, mutiated, and put t.
death with lingering tortures! Can any one will
a human heart refuse to them his sympathy, what
ever he may think of the policy and conduct o
their government Of course, as far as the go
vernment Is concerned, people of other nation:
may, without disparagemeut to the character o.
civilized men, refuse their sympathies to the effort
of Great Britain to recOnquer her possessions,
however indispensable that result may be to tho
best interests OF civilization.
