Bishop Early Of the latter Church, to-day recog-
n;zad the BODY, and took his seat as Presiding
officer Of the Conference.
Under the ruling Of u recent order from the
War Department, which gives possession OF
certain Methodist Church property TO those
ministers and members who remain With and
act under the ecclesiastical jurisdiction govern
ing said churches prior to 1861" the Church
edifce at Hamilton, in this County was on
Sunday last, SO disposed Of by a military au-
thoritv Since the formation in lS6l,o what is
known as the Staunton Conference, the Church
at Hamilton, has been occupied by ministers BE-
longing TO that body-there being none others,
until recently, TO contest It's use: sunday
morning last being a regular appointment OF
the Rev. Mr.. Waugh, Of the Staunton Conner
ence. an appointment for the same hour was
also made by Rev. Mr.. Ross, OF the Baltimore
Conference, and a courier despatched TO 6am-
ilton on Saturday to demand the keys OF me
Hor7>e. which was refused. With the rising or
me NuDodll sui, "a III
armed soldiers, proceeded to the scene OF &C
ton, arriving on the ground about s. O'Clock.
A considerable congregation had already as
sembIed in the Church to hear Mr.. Waugh,
who had not vet entered the house. He was
waited on by the officer in charge of the squad
and notified that he would not Re allowed to
fill his appointment, and the house turned
over to Mr.. Ross, whereupon the former gen
tleman retired and the most of the assembled
congregation with him. Another congrega
ton then assembled and Mr.. Ross fulfilled his
appointment A considerable number OF per
sons had gathered together, in anticipation,
no doubt, ofa difficulty, but no disturbance
took place beyond that we have stated. These
are the facts as given US by one who was pres
