The Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, has found q fresh lance in the
service of Independent organization.
Its new ally "a the Rev. DIR. Baker, of
McMinnyiile, Tenn, who, after scce-
ding from the NJ. E., South, to the
main BODY of the denomination, has
returned to the old fold. In o letter
lust published, Dr. Baker somewhat
acridIy remarks: Knowing what l
do of the spirit and inclination of the
Northern Methodist preachers, not
only here, but elsewhere, l hesitate
not to say that's reunion 1.-The two
Churches would, in few years, dis
place the Southern preachers and fill
their places with Northern transfers !"
He adds: " The talent and acquired
abilities of the ministry of the Church
South, are not held in very high cs-
TEEN by Northern Methodists. This
being the case, not only would the
most desirable appointments be filled
with Northern transfers, hut the
Church papers, literary institutions,
book agencies and secretaryships
would all change hands and the time
would not Be very distant when the
Southern Conferences, with all the in
stitutions of the Church in the South.
would be manned by Northern men.
The Southern preachers would beleft
to the alternative of taking circuits,
small stations, or of locating and re-
firing from tbe work."
After some playful remarks about
carpet bags" our lively letter-writer
proceeds to criticise the pulpit of his
Northern brothers, finding it lacking
in gift and graccs, and especially faul-
ty i'm its sentimentality. The manner
in which the clergy of the Church, |
North, derive their incomes is COM
mented upon. According to DIR. b.,
there is first the missionary appropri- |
alton, next, a subscription list for |
members, and weekly collection
from the congregation, besides an an
nual festival and the Mite Society,""
based upon a weekly contribution of |
ten cents and a specified yearly pay
mcnt In addition-thc sum total going
to the pastor. AS to the native
preachers who travel the circuits, the
amount of compensation is unknown,
except as it is paid over qua. terly by
the presiding elder. The reasons Of I
this secresy)in Tie lasttef is because Of
the great inequality, Of the amounts
appcrioned to, e2ehs Thus A gets
$1,000; y, 5000; G, 500; ID, ,SlOO; Z,
SIS; +, $50 and G, 800; as in tile case /
of coIore6 preachers, .some of which
