PoL1r1cs IN THE PuLpIr REBUKED.-
We learn from the Troy Times that an
unusual ecene occurred at the Methodist
Church, Lansingburgh, on Sunday eve
ming Of last week. A minister from
Buffalo, who temporarily occupied the
pulpit, introduced the President's eman-
cipation proclamation into his discourse,
and trusted that the rebels would "hold
out until after the lst Of January, 10
order that freedom might be given TO
every slave. At this remark, one of the
congregation rose and said that not a
word Of truth had been spoken during
the entire evening. He demanded that
different sentiments should be uttered
from the pulpit. One Of the Trustees OF
the Church replied, sustaining the min.
ister, and dcnounciDg the interrupter.
Much confusion followed, and the con.
gregation departed in no very pleasant
mood.
