THE NJ. E. PREACHERS MEETING.-Presi-
dent Pierson presided at the M. E. Preach
ers meeting this morning, and j, o. Sypherd
conducted the opening exercises. The
question for discussion, " Is Local Option
the best means of promoting the interest of
Temperance ?" was taken up, Rev. J. b,
Mann leading in the affirmative. He said
that Local Option was not political ques-
ton, but Temperance was religious one.
He was opposed decidedly to third party
movement. Mrs. Lowry being present by
invitation took part in the discussion, and
looked upon Temperance as a religious
question. Rev. j. E. Smith, re
affirmed what he had before said
that Temperance was a political
| question, and it was legitimate for the pull
pit to deal with it and all other great lead
ing political questions. Rev. l. L. CroucI
endorsed Mr.. Smiths views. Rev. T. E
Martindale objected to the insinuation tina
the ministry were afraid to preach Temper
ance. DR.. NJ A. Booth claimed it to be til,
duty of the ministry and all good christian
to advocate Temperance.
1t was agreed that the united Thanksgiv
ing service should be held in Asbur
church. Rev. j. E. Smith announcedsth
intention of Rev. William Taylor to visi
Wilmington on the 18th of November, an
remain one week, preaching in the variou
