The Methodist bishops In the South
The New York AetAOdist of this week
says:
"The recent appropriation of thirty.tive
thousaRd dollars for the extension OF our
work in the far South is likely to be fol.
lowed by important consequences. Almost
simultaneously with i appears the Prosla-
nation Of the President Offering to the
people OF the States now in rebellion on
amnesty upon certain conditions which he
has thought ct to prescribe.
"Measures have already been taken to
carry out the plans of our church. Bishop
Ames, at last accounts, was at st. Louis,
preparing to start upon his tour down the
Mississippi. Bishop Simpson will soon
proceed to Tennessee. A prominent and
popular Methodist minister, now stationed
In New York city, has been designated for
the city of New Orleans; and though the
appointment demands of him not little
sacrifice, hig- acceptance Is nevertheless
hoped for. An order has been given by
the Secretary Of War permitting the Occus
patton of deserted churches within our
lines, and the use Of them temporarily for
religious service. No questions OF own.
ership or possession are 10 be raised; these
eau be determined only when the several
States are brought back to their allegiance
and civil rule is once more established over
their people.
"Mauy facts 10 the condition of the
southern States encouraging the hope of
the return of the vast majority Of Metho.
dist in the South to the old chureh-the
church Of Asbury and MGKendree, from
from which many of them separated with
the greatest reluctance. The Methodist
Episcopal Church, South, is shivered to
atoms. 1t ia doubtful il its General Con-
ference will ever meet again; or If it shall
meet, It will be shorn of it's former pro.
portions. The publishing house in Nash
Vile is In the hands OF the United States
authorities; its finances were impaired be-

tary order. The members of the Louisville
Conference, at their last session, Avowed
their loyalty to the government of the
Union, and by that avOWal severed them.
selves from the rebel part OF southern
Methodism. The southern Methodist
church, which was one Of the chief moral
supports of the rebellion, will inevitably
share its fortunes and go down with it TO
a common ruin. As the rebel Statesmen
have made slavery the corner stone of their
confederaoy, so has the southern Metho-
dist church placed under that cornerstone
the New Testament. Il did Its best to give
the sanction of religion to the political
measures which terminated in secession"

hundred citizens, many Of whom were not

Capt. Wren's command became 80 large that
Gen. Winder deemed division necessary
Two companies were therefore formed, and
Capt. Wren was promoted to the Office Of

some of the members OF company "B,"
when they were ordered to do duty in King

Yesterday morning the Judge decided that

southern Lust for Power.

The inherent greed for power and Off
cial station which has always pervaded the
South, and which was one cause of the re-
bellion, is still as grasping as ever, if we
may judge from the rebel newspapers. In
the Richmond Enquirer, no less than ten
candidates offer themselves as willing to
accept of the GovernOrship of the Old Do
miniOn. Nearly all of them have some
military title. In Mississippi, one paper
has the announcement of six candidates
for the Office of Governor. In Texas, a
Galveston paper publishes cards of sixteen
candidates, aspirants for the Governorship
of the Lone Star. We might extend the
list over all Of the rebel States. Not even
war and its priTations has eradicated the
old love of indOlent power and mOnarehieal
rule

The Oberlin News alludes to the fact
that Friday of last week was the anniver-
sary of the incarceration of the Oberlin-
Wellington rescuers in the Cleveland jail.
The action appeared to be an effort on the
part of the Federal authorities to crush
out the anti-slavery spirit of the Reserve.
"NOw, by -" said one of the officials
"we will grind these Oberlin fellows to
powder"
Four years have passed. The Cabinetis
not now crushing slavs-rsseuers, but is do

do not go to the Western Reserve but to
