Camden, adjourned on last Wednesday morn
ing, after quite a busy session. Very mex
pectedly to the members of the NJ. E. Church
in this city, their pastor, Rev. j. 5. Heisler,
who had been stationed here but one year,
was appointed Presiding Elder on the Bridge
ton District. Mr.. Fl. had SO generally won
the esteem and love of his people and of the
community, that the change was felt to be
unjust to the church here, and for time
efforts were made to have tho appointment
revoked, bnt without success, and Mr.. H.
leaves tomorrow for his new field.
The new appointee, Rev. C. r. Hartranft,
is wel-received, and in desiring the return
Of Rev. Mr.. Heisler, there was no feeling of
opposition or objection to him on the part of
the Church. He is known rs an earnest and
able pastor, and will, without doubt, have the
good will and affection Of his people.

wrftihg The articis ID last weeks issae oh tlis
above subject, cur attention has been called
to the fact that the charter Of the city pro-
hibits any payment for services as couAcil-
men. We were, of course, not aware that
this was the case at the time Of writing, and
are surprised that members Of the Council,
Whose duty it is to know the laws under
which they are acting) do not appear to be
conscious of this law. We are satisfied from
an examination that the law is unmistakable
on this point, and we trfist to see it obeyed.
The Council, as law-abiding citizens, are in
honor bound to reconsider the recent appro-
priations to the committees and annul them.
And as the Committees Of previous years have
taken pay against the plain letter of the law,
we expect to see them return their plumber
about the time Councilman Malone gets to
lecturing on temperance and the proprietor
of the Great Moral Show is elected Mayor
of Lambertville. A good many Of our Coun-
cilmen have had fine grip in the fingers.
Hereafter, if elected, they must content them
selves with glory instead of perquisites.
When it is understood that the law does
not allow pay to councilmen, perhaps there
will not be so great anxiety on the part of
some men to secure the office-and then bet
ter men win be elected. isssia4ss 81 .asisg
