impndence OF The Republican leaders in de-

shall no, escape The responsibility, never

The war nor secession was q necessary

He could himself have sver,ed secession,

could have aver ted secession. and OF course
war. by little assuring legislation during
The first few weeks Of the secession
which commenced Ia December, 1s6O; and
after the secession or The cotton States.
they could have confined secession 10 those
States, which would speedily have collapsed,

MethOdtsts i'm Minnesota,

"The Minutes of the Minnesota Annual
Conference of tie Methodist Episcopal
Church." printed a: this office, are before
us, ard we learn from them that there are
lis ministers connected with the Confer
ence, and eigty-iour l0ca! preachers, making
in all 1919 ministers of this Church. There
Are 5.692 members and practitioners.
They have l48 Sabbath schools, l046
officers and teachers, and 1920 scholars
They have forty two meeting houses, aud
twenty-one parsonages, valued at S33 ,538.
Rev. PETGa AKERs, D. d. is the oldest
minister in the denomination in this State,
and commenced preaching in 1921. Rev.
JOHN kERNs, OF hankato, formerly stations
ed in this city, stands next to Or. AKERs,
and began TO preach in 1927.
The preachers came from sixteen different
Conferences, representing every part of the
country. Their present fields OF labor H.
c!ade al the settled parts of Minnesota
They have two German districts, with
twenty two ministers and one Scandina-
Wan, with eleven ministers. Hamlice
University is their only institution OF learn
ing aud we hope that they will have the
good sense to undertake no other educational
enterprise until they establish that Oh a
permanent basis. The last Conference
passed resolutions in favor of al efficient
system of common schools, and the back
ward steps CT the present Legislature viii
be met with he sternest opposition by the
whole Church, as it will be by ;he friends Of
education geuerally.
The progress Of this Caurc5 in Minna7o-
ia has been very rapid. Only short tine
ago they had but two OF tasee ministers
where now are nearly two hundred. The
increase among the Germans, 5 edes and
Norwegi2as, is fully equal 20 that among
the English, considering 1be population.

Death of General Lander,

The death of General LANDER will be a
source of regret to all who were acquainted
with his heroic qualities. His dashing
bravery and GOODNESS under fire had won for
him the title of the Murat of the American
army. He held his own lite "at pins
lee' liz the cause of bis country. In the
sharp battles of Westers Virginia, he dis.
played almost reckless daring, and won the
friendship of General MCCLELLAN, and
when the latter TOOK command at Wash.
ington, after that awful Sunday at Manas
sas, be YVES accompanied by LANDER. Ev.
erybody was fearful that the reiels would
capture Washington, but MCCLELLAN said
before they did it, Lander and l will be
left on the field" General LANDER YVES
wounded 10 the advance into Virginia from
Edwards Ferry, and had not recovered
when he Was engaged with his brigade in
the late brilliant operations in the neighborr
