THE METHODIST BOOK COMMITTEE.

This committee closed their business yesterday
and adjourned sine die. The members who have
not been elected TO the General Conference will
after few days return to their homes. While the
sessions OF the committee here have been very
peaceabe and harmonious, there is probability OF
q lively time in the General Conference when the
quadrennal reports come up for final action. The
minority, consisting of Drs Slicer Pike and Matby
have report which they intend to lay before that
body. While they most unqualiGedy endorse the
Integrity and management OF the agents, they
as heartily condemn that Of some OF their employees
they present figures like these to sustain
their allegation. That Hoffman, the faithess
head OF the binding department under the previous
administration, must have carried away or per-
intted to be Carried away nearly as much stock as
nc worked up. For instance, Mr.. Kilbreth's report
SHOWS that In 1860 there expended for material
In the binding department by HOFFMAN the sum OF
s5223g to turn out $l1l,44 worth OF work. On
the other hand, the report shows that under tho
superlntendence OF Mr.. Andrews, HoIImans sue
cessor, there was expended in 1870 s20,43s to turn
OUT $So,970 worth OF work. This large difference re-
CURES some explanation, which the majority of the
committee give by stating that while Mr.. Andrews
turns out more bound work with q given quantity
OF leather, Mr.. Hoffman turned out considerable
more than MS successor does with an eoual
q"ahu'y u muslin. They say also that 1t must

THE METHODIST PREACHERS.
Mission Work In Large Cities and Among
the Negroes.


the Negroes.
The Methodist preachers were enlightened yes
terday to some extent on two important subjects,
In which the church and the ministry are deeply In
terested namely: How to reach the nonchurch-
going masses in large cities, and the evangelical
ton OF the freedmen OF the South. The Rev. Mr..
McAuley, who has been thirteen years engaged in
city mission work in London, In very graphic and
interesting manner related his experiences among
the there and described the nlodas ope,undt
by which they gather congregations and build
churches FREQ from debt and make them self-sup-
porting. The British plan has decidedly the adj
vantage OF the American. In London the very
best and most devoted preachers OF the WESLEYAN
denomination engage In city mission work, and
they receive the very best salaries paid
on the streets In the neighborhoods in
which they desire to locate, or in a
The converts are kept together strictly on Mr..
Wesley's plan, and are made to contribute OF their
means to the support Of the Gospel among them
selves. When certain sum has been thus raised
the Home Mission Society loans certain sum to
the infant church and donates another certain
sum, with which church edifce is at once erected
and as soon as the church becomes scll.supportlng
II Is supplied with regular Conference preachers.
The missionary in the meantime goes to another
field and repeats his work. Every church member
is kept at work also visiting from house to house,
gathering children into Sabbath schools, and
preaching In the highways and hedges in the after
moons, and thus the work of evangelization
IS carried on rapidly and successfully.
The American plan Is almost the opposite OF this.
The best talent does not enter the home mission
work. nor do those who do get the best salaries.
Instead of going out into the streets and lanes for
the people store or hall is opened here and the
people are invited into it, and the process Is very
slow and uncertain. Mr.. McAuley infinitely pre-
ferred his own country's methods to ours
Mr.. Sargent, Superintendent OF Wesleyan Mis-
sions in the West Indies, contradicted the state
ments OF certain writers OF books and for maya
zines In this country and in Europe as to the condi-
tion OF the blacks In those islands and their capacity
to understand Christian morals. In the island OF
Jamaica alone they have eghty-one Wesleyan
churches, the membership being about nine -tenths
black In Kingston they have church property
valued at 100000 and last year they raised for the
support OF their ministry In that city $4,000 besides
sending few thousands more to the mission fund
OF Great Britain. lie therefore concluded that thew
are just as capable OF moral ana intellectual culture
as are other men.

THE NATIONAL GAME.

Fine but Somewhat One-Sided Came
Defeat. OF the NIansfields by the
Mutuals-Score, IL to 0.
The first championship match of the season in this
vicinity came or yesterday afternoon on the Union
Grounds, Brooklyn, r. D., in the presence Of about
500 persons, the contestants being the newly
organized Mansfield Club Of Mansfield, Conn.,, and
the Mutuals Of this city. The result Of the game
was extremely distasteful to the visiting club, from
the fact that the "Mutes" did not allow them
single run with which to adorn their score.
They are however, somewhat used to
such treatment, having recently been served
in similar manner by the Troy nine. The reader
must not infer from this fact, though, that the
Mansfield Club Is not good one; for 1t Is. The
signal defeats that have overtaken them since they
left their homes in the Nutmeg State should have
been expected; for they started or on the tour
without having had any practice whatever-the
whole nine never having so much as appeared on
the same field together-and commenced operations
against the Troy Club than which there Is not O
stronger in the country. They have good pitcher,
a very fine catcher, first class short stop
and third base man, good second c9 and first first
want, then, Is practice, without which nine can
never do well. Their fielding in yesterdays game
was good, with very few exceptlons but they were
utterly unable to bat Cummings pitching. Tho
Mansfelds, however, will not be the only club that
will have cause for complaint in this particular
during the present season; for without doubt Cum
mings is the most difficult man to bat that ever
pitched ball, Martin, whose style Of delivery Is
| wholly different, not excepted.
BY reference to the 1t will be seen that the
visitors earned but three first bases Ten OF their
| number were victimizd by Hicks behind the bat,
| who played his position without error and
made one very brilliant catch OF q difficult
| shOrtbounding foul ball, for which he was
warmly applauded by the assemblage. Hit the bail
how they would, 1t was sure to go up In the air
almost every time, provided it did not foul, that
twenty-One OF the twenty-seven men put out were
captured on the fly II this does not show effective
pitching nothing does. In seven OF the nine
innings the Mansnelds were retired In one, two
three order just fast they could go to the bat
and at no time during the game did they get man
past second base. Indeed, the fielding on the part
the Mutuas was almost perfection, but two errors
being charged to them and one of these was quite
pardOnabe. Start and Eggler bore or the honors ut
the bat.
The following is the score, the column headed
"E." indicating the errors made by each player:-

Ease Ball Notes.

Saturday next the Baltmoros play the Mutuals
on the Union Grounds.
1t now appears that owing to an understanding
between the managers OF the various professional
clubs all games must count as championship games,
no matter when played. Such being the case the
contests between the Mutuals and Baltimores, as
well as those with the Oympics and Nationals OF
washington. were for the whip pennant, and not
mere exhibition games Therefore the game be-
tween the Batimores and Mutuals next Saturday
Will be the third Of their series.
Wednesday next the Athletics OF Philadelphia
play the Baltimores, at Baltimore.
on Thursday the Baltmores and B0stons try con-
clusions In the Monumental City, and on Saturday
the Athetcs ana Bostons play at the Quaker City.
Pools Will be sold on each OF these games at John
sons corner OF Broadway and Twentyeighth street.

be remembered that under HofYman's administra-
ton the Concern was cramped up In narrow quar-
tiers In 200 Mulberry street, where they had no
chance to look up anything; and while they do not
eXcupate Mr.. Holman at all they say that the 400
employees OF the Concern had free access to the

very frequently.
ON Saturday night, accompanied by her sister,
she went out TO take STROLL and walking along
Canal street met Ackcrson, who accosted her and
entered into conversation. After some talk he gave
her money to buy new shawl, which she did. When
she had got the shawl he asked her TO
come down on Sunday to see him at his
lodgings In William street. She refused to
do this, alleging as her reasons that
she had her sister from the country staying with
her Enraged by her refusal to comply with his
wishes he said he would get square with her, and
on coming opposite 2l5 Canal street threw the
bottle OF vifrio on her, destroying the entire suit

make no answer 10 the charge, and was committed
