For the Spectator.
A Strange Fact.

We learn from good authority, that the
Methodist Church at Deerfeld, Augusta coun
ty, Va, has been virtually handed over to set
Of negroes who meet there from time to time,
calling themselves Old Methodists, and now
they carry the key and lock and unlock the
Church at will In this state of things, a
white Sunday School, that had met in that
Church from time to time, as circumstances
seemed to favor It, for twenty-five years, has
been forced to seek shelter 10 an old school
mouse. Some white congregations who had
previously Worshipped there, are still permit
ted to do so; but even then the negro is very
careful not to let any white man get his hands
on the key: This case will appear stranger
still when 1t Is known, that the white minis
tiers whom the negroes now permit to preach
there are generally Southern Methodists--no
white Northern Methodist eyer having preached
there or in any way. So fat as we can learn, had
anything to do with the oase Is there anoth-
er such case in the State Of Virginia? D.
