LETTERS FROM the PEOPLE.


Nofu III LNpihuution bniy.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN; Inquiries have been made
as TO the recent resolutions adopted by the con.
grcgation OF the Metropolitan Methodist church
Of this city In reference to their former aud pres
ont pastors. The facts are these; one year ago
DR.. Newman completed the full period allowed by
the Methodist Episcopal Church for pastor to
remain In any one church.
1t Is true there was at that time an effort made
to retain him by having the Metropolitan church
made an exception to the general rule, hut the
authorities Of the church decided this could not
be done, Since that time neither the church nor
DR.. Newman, we learn, have INDUCED the
thought o. his return until the rules Of the
church Will allow him to do so, which will be In
three years from the time he left.
We are very certain there has been no petition
circulated TO have him return this year, there
fore the action OF the congregation last Sabbath
was quite unnecessary, as all loyal Methodlsts
know that nr. Newman could not return In con-
formlty 10 the rules OF the conference now In
session, and that Dr.. Tiffany, who has succeeded
him by the same rules, Is expected TO remain his
appointed time. An OLD METHODIST.

It Will he remembered that on the persons Of
several Of tho parties arrested In Philadelphia
were found quite an extensive correspondence

Every old haunt Of the countcrfc!tcrs had been
visited, when It was decided to proceed to a re-
mote part Of the city, where for some time past
the detectives had suspicioned that all was not
right. Several hours were consumed In lnsti-
tnting a thorough search, when finally they came
upon the pair and arrested them, with unmls-
taxable evidence Of their guilt about them.
Their names are Thomas Sewers and John

that oil was not right, concluded TO follow

them stralghten up and begin conversation, the
subject OF which was O cane, looked carefully,
and saw that they had with them 4 cotton cover,
which suppose inclosed cane, aud they took
good care OF II, too. They talked considerably
about the cost Of 1t, wondered how old "Roseyh
would like II, and congratulated themselves that
they were about to get rid OF him so cheAply ]
at once concluded that they were no company
for me, and not caring to Interfere with them
