TnE METHODIST AoTIoN on SLAVERY.
The closing proceedings of the late ses-
sion of the Baltimore Conference at
Sfxhnton, show that the action OF that
body on the slavery subject, in opposi-
ton to the new chapter introduced into
the discipline by the last General Con
ference Of the church at Buffalo, is Of a
character similar to that taken by the
East Baltimore Conference lately in ses-
sion at Chambarsbarg. After much dis
cussion, and evidence of considerable
disagreement in the body as to the pre-
else form and extent Of action proper to
be taken The Baltimore Conference f.
nally adopted the main features Of the
report made by Rev. Norval Wilson,
conforming to tue memorial Of the Lay
Convention, within the bounds Of this
Conference, in favor Of a separation from
the General Conference. The 6nal vote
in favor of the separation amounted to
81, and, though there were only 3 direct
votes against the proposition, it appears,
there were some 40 who did not vote at
all. The way is left open in the rcsolu-
tions for reunion with the Northern
body hereafter, on the same basis as
adopted by the East Conferenca-that is
tho abrogation of the new chapter at the
next Annual Conference, and the trans
fcrring of the subject Of slavery to the
jurisdiction of the conferences where it
exists, &c. The presiding bishop, twill
be seen, oEjeets . the result arrived at,
and considered it null and void as con-
ference action

The WEALTH OF THE NoRTH AND THE
POVERTY OF THE SoUTH. The republi-
can journals and their allies are con
stantly harping on the absurd idea that
the great bulk Of the substantial wealth
of the country is at the North, and that
the South, is comparatively poor, and
mainly dependent upon the former
They seem to forget that the North lives
almost altogether by her commerce,
which is always liable to sudden changes
and depressions, and that when prostrat-
ed, ruin and bankruptcy rapidly ensue
The New York Post, republican, already
sees that it is now seriously endangered,
and dropping for the time its ridicule of
the South. it sounds the alarm in view
of the effect of the Morrill, tariff in the
following strain;
!" As things now are, tie prospects for
The commerce Of this city are so discour-
uytHy % ~ CHt .(Of0 VhS tttt cfJ "
alarm from all classes Of our citizens. =
For we live by commerce, and by COM
merce with the whole world. Take that
from us, aud every industry, every trade
suffers. Nor is THE effect confined to
the limits of the city, or Of the State, of
which it is the ornament and support. =
There is hardly an iron establishment or
a coal mine in Pennsylvania, or loom
in Massachusetts,, or forge in New Jer-
ser, that docs not feel the pulsation of
it: arterial blood flowing directly &om
the great heart of the metropolis. If
that becomes torpid, woe to the cxtremi-
tbs. A numbncss viii come over them
which no warmth of protection can re-
move"
While New York is thus frightened,
the south is rapidly increasing her com
merco, and her productions, such as cot
ton, corn, tobacco, wheat, rice, pork,
&c, are yearly adding to her substantial
wealth and enduring prosperity
