The Methodists and szayery---a Noble
Position.

Position
The following manly and courageous res
olutions on the subject of slavery were pass
ed by unanimous vote at the fourth ses-
sion of the Kansas and Nebraska Confer
ence of The Methodist Episcopal Church,
which convened at Omaha, Nebraska, on
the i4th of April The illustrious founder
of Hethcdism was one OF the 6rst to utter a
ct Christian protest against slavery, and it
would be indeed shameful If the branch Of
the church which he founded should prove
derelict on the great moral question of the
day:
Where's. the Bible teaches the unity.
equality and dignity of humanity; and
whereas slavery is founded in the doctrine
that '.might is right" and is q creation OF
law; and whereas, slavery is at utter and ir-
reconcilable variance with all the rights OF
man; and whereas. as people We have de-
clared 70 the world that '.we hold these
truths to be self-eyident, that all men are
created equal, and are endowed by their
Creator with certain inalienable rights,
among which are life, liberty and the pur-
suit of happiness, and whereas, our dis
cipline sfirms that We are as much as ever
convinced of the great eyil:of slavery, and
piOPVuuto s&1C Sud14- DC uOAC
for the extirpation OF slavery? and whereas,
the imperious and aggressive spirit of slave
ry in OUT country renders 1t imperatively
necessary for the friends of freedom to
unite their influence against the evil; and
whereas, we are responsible to God and hu-
manity, to posterily and history. for our
testimony and influence as conference;
therefore resolved
I. That as God has made of one blood
all nations of men, we recognize in every
human being the offspring of the same com
mon Father and admit the universal broth
erhood of man. z 49,
2. That no enactment made by any mum
Der of human beings can give one person
right of possession In another person as an
article of property.
8. That as he-church is the light of the
world, every member oughtto bear testi-
mony against ali iniquity. and in all proper
ways seek to remember them that are in
bonds as bound with them" that when our
Master shall call to account He may say to
US, ''inasmuch as We did it unto one of the
least of fthese, ye did it unto me.''
4. That all slaveholding for gain is sinful.
and all persons guilty of SO doing should
neither be received into or retained in the
church. - p ~. -

ty to use all proper means for the extirpa-

The Queen Charlotte Island Expedition

The expedition Of gold hunters TO Queen
Charlotte Island sailed yesterday afternoon
on board the schooner Island Queen, from
Kainder's wharf. A large crowd ofpeeple
were assembled to witness the departure.
The expedition is composed Of strong and
henlthy-oOking men, who are accustomed
to daring adventures aud welding the
pick and shovel, and who, we feel confident,
are determined 10 give the new Dorado
fair trial. The party number about 100
names, each man subscribing ten dOllars to
be kept rs reserve fund, md ilisbuFsed
upon the order of committee to be ap-
pointed upon the arrival OF the expedition
ut the Island, and furnishing his own pro-
visions and outfit. Subscriptions to the
amount Of 81 ,0S2 had been contributed by
the residents Of this place, with which the
schooner was chartered for one month, and
properly fitted up. The further details Of
the government Of the expedition are to
be determined upon on reaching the island.
A committee of the miners yesterday
noon waited upon His Excelleney, the
Governor, and presented petition from
their comrades asking for one Of Her Maj
esty's ships to accompany them, and the
appointment Of a resident magistrate upon
the island. Later in the day, the whole
waited upon the Governor, and his Excel
ency, who has taken a lively interest in
the different expeditions that have gone
forward to this island, being called out,
proceeded to addtcss tho men.
His Excellency said that the expedition
had his sincerest wishes for its complete
success. For himself he believed the
island was rich in the precious metals, and
would repay the honest labors Of the miner.
He stated that one Of Her Majesty's ships
now in Esqumalt would be, dispatched to
the island, as desired and also q resident
magistrate appointed. He could fully ap-
preciate the dangers 10 be apprehshded
from Indians, and while everything would
be done by the Government, with lis some
what limited means, to protect them In
their rights and person, and to facilitate
the exploration Of the country, be felt Il
incumbent on him to warn them Of the
danger Of committing any outrage upon
the rights of the Indians; TO impress upon
them the Importance and necessity Of culti-
waiting the good will Of the natives He
said that the ideas Of the Indians as 10
melting out punishment and revenging in
juries, did not agree With ours. That an
outrage committed by any one Of the mi
ncrs would be visited by the indiscrimina-
ting Indisns upon tho whole body, aud
therefore the great Importance Of the lead
ers Of the expedition in promptly checking
the slightest attempt TO do the savages on
injury, and the peaeeablo line Of conduct
incumbent upon each individual, were np-
parent His Exccllency then called upon
the men to respect the laws that might be
established there; to observe the Sabbath.
and all the Lords ordinances, that He
might be pleased TO favor them with His
blessings, aud with health aud prosperity.
