REPORTS ON SLAVERY.

We give both the majority and the minority re-
ports Of the Committee on Slavery. The minori-
~ report is, of course, q rank pro slavery docu-
ment, and every way unworthy of a Methodist
Conference. The majority report is by no means
satisfactory to US. If it should pass the Confer
ence-of which there lie little probability 1t will
amount TO nothing. 1t conditions everything on
the Restrictive Rule process. The proposed &C.
tion in the chapter is simply the substitution of
a pious exhortation for the weak and worthless d.
~rections contained in the chapter as it now stands.
We presume such an amendment can be made, as
it will! only require q majority vote, but when
made, Il will be Of no use-for neither prospec-
lively nor retrospectively does it prohibit slave
holding. What is done by way of altering the
General Rule, is about the SAM as was proposed
four years ago, and will be likely to meet with
about the same success, that is to say, it will re-
ceive a majority, but not a two.thirds vote. This
action, if nothing more is done, may be set down
as a complete failure; it will not advance us a
single step beyond where we were four years
ago.
The true course was abundantly plain, and il
the slavery committee had heen made up of the
right material, the report of the majority would
have instantly assumed the only consistent shape
that of express, unqualified prohibition in the
chapter. Declining all circumlocution in dealing
with SO fearful a crime, the committee would hayC
said peremptorily, and at once, let slavery ceas'
from the NJ. E. Church forever. Anything shor
Of this is mere trifing. We may call the subjec
delicate, important, perplexing, or whatever ols'
we please, but it will not alter the case, nor JUST
fly a moderate, softly style of treatment. In touch
ing slavery, we touch q crime. and we must dea
with it precisely as we deal with any other higl
crime. 1t is the &C Instant forgetfulness Of this al
important fact that makes the most Of our anti
slavery action disgustiugly tame. We evince n
just appreciation OF the guilt of slave-holding.-
Hence, the slow and feeble pace of our movement
for extirpation. Did we view the enormity in il
true light, we should be no more embarrassed wit
this question than with any other gross deadl
sin. So far as the action OF the committee is cor
cerned, the thing we feared has come TO pass
the moderates have again carried the day, and e
q report utterly worthless. 1t is barely possibl
for the Conference to remedy the evil, but We hav
no hope in this direction. A General C%onferenC
is an unlikely body to step beyond its committee
or inaugurate any bold measure; the men VIII
f might do such a thing, if at liberty, are ~etfsctuall
3 trammeled by a host which will do nothing
Hence, tie Conference, for all %reformatory pu
3 poses, is a rope Of sand.-NOrthern Independent.
