THE CHRONICLE FOR THE CAM
PAIGN.

In view of the approaching presi-
dental campaign, it is to be anticlpa-
ted that an increased demand will
arise for prompt and accurate politi-
cal intelligence. With view of sup
plying this demand, we desire to say
that we shall always in future, as IN
the past, endeavor to keep up with
the exigences of the times; all infor-
nation 10 regard to both the presi-
dental campaign and the county can
vass will be given with promptitude
and accuracy to the utmost of our
ability, and the comments which we
may feel called upon to make on the
events which may arise will be dicta-
ted by the same principles which have
hitherto been our guide. These are
the vigorous advocacy of REFORM and
uncompromising hostility to corrup-
ton in Federal affairs, maintaining
our adhesion to the cause of Tilden
and Hendricks, who were our choice
as candidates for the Presidency long
before the convention at st. Louis !;
and in State politics the conscientious
maintenance of the credit of the State.
Our subscription list is at this time
larger and more lucrative than it has
been since our journal was first offered
to the public in 1888, and to adverti-
sers we may say without presumption,
that no better medium of publicity
can be procured throughout this re-
gion of country.

Rule 4 These rules shall take effect
Immediately.
FURTHER RECOMMENDATION.

In order to further promote the
peaceful results contemplated by this
joint commission to remove as far as
may be occasion, and especially to
forestall all further occasion for hos
tility between the two churches, we
recommend to the members of both, as
a wise rule of settlement where pro-
perty is in contest and one or both are
weak, that they compose their differ
ences in the same communion, and in
all cases that the ministers and mem
bers recognize each other in all rela-
tions of fraternity, and as possessed of
ecclesiastical rights and privileges of
equal dignity and validity. They
should each receive from the other
ministers and members in good stand
ing with the same alacrity as if coming
from their own church and without in
reference with each others institu-
tons or missions. They should never
theless cooperate in all Christian en-
terprises. 1t is not to be supposed in
respect of the same matters of mere
opinion that all ministers and mem
bers in either church will be in accord,
but we trust and believe that a spirit
of fellowship and mutual regard will
pervade the reconciled ranks of the
entire ministry and membership of
both churches. We believe, also that
their supreme allegiance to the cause
of the Great Master will triumph over
all variation of personal sentiment, and
will so exalt the claims of brotherly
affection that from this suspicious
hour new epoch in Methodism will
begin its brighter history, so that we
shall know no unfraternal Methodism
in the United States or even in the
wide world.

COMING HOME.
By PHOEBE easy.

o. brothers and sisters, growing old.
Do you all remember yet
That home, in the shade of the rustling
trees,
Where once our household metz
Do you know how we useed 10 come from
school
Through the summers pleasant heat,
With the yellow fennel's golden dust
On our tired little feet?
And how sometimes in an idle mood
We loitered by the way,
And stopped in the woods to gather flowers,
And in the fields to play.
Till warned by the deepening shadows fall t,
That told of the coming night,
We climbed to the top of the last, long hill,
And saw our home In sight.
And brothers and sisters, older now
Than she whose life is Ger,
Do you think of the mothers loving face
That looked from the open door?
Alasl for the changing things of time;
That home In the dust is low,
And that loving smile was hid from us
In the darkness long ago!
And we have come to lifesl last hill.
From which our weary eyes
Can almost look on that home that shines
Eternal in the skies.
so brothers and sisters, as we go,
Still let us move as one,
Always together keeping step,
Till the march of life is done.
For that mother who waited for us here,
Wearing a smile so sweet,
Now waits on the hills Of Paradise
For her children's coming feet,

ment OF the laws upon this point from
an oplnI on by my predecessor, Ex-At-

thus appears to have been we'll settled
for many years (see opinion 466, May

can be no State law or State official ia
this country who has jurisdiction to
oppose you In discharging your official
duties under the laws of the United
States. If such interference shall
take place-a thing not anticipated
you are to disregard it entirely. The
laws of the United States are supreme,
aud so consequently is the action of
officials of the United States in en-
forcing them. There is, as virtually
you have already been told, no officer of
a State VIII nom you may not, by summons,

wolves upon an officer clothed with

in degree with these powers and rights,

proper to advise you that in preparing

that these judgments do not concern

shall, in this connection, read and con-

Do OUR eyes deceive our ear-sight 3?
Is visions about2 The Daily Graphic,
Republican in politics, has the fair
ness to say, right out and above board:
I'm this campaign it were well if
Republicans would concede to their
adversaries a monopoly of the fabrica-
ton business. Let the followers of
Hayes tell the truth as much as posi-
Bile, and get along with just as few lies
as will support life. They might drop,
for instance, as Improbable baggage,
that new yarn about Tilden having had
$4,000 of the Credit Mobiler steal !;
and that other one which alleges that
Hendricks was the vice-president of
the reasonable Knights of the Golden
Circle. What's the use? And that
grossly improbable story that in a
recent speech Zebulon B. Vance,
Democratic candidate for Governor OF
North Carolina, said:
L am sorry that l laid down my arms
in 1865; [ am in favor of re-enslaving
the negro, and if that cannot be done
at once, my idea is to adopt plan
which will bring about such condi-
ton of things. l would deprive the
negro of education privileges; l would
pay him low wages would prevent
him from acquiring real estate; L
would deprive him of arms, ammunl-
ton, stock and agricultural imple-
ments.'
Let us abandon these common SLAM
ders and tell only such lies as we shall
not be ashamed of when We come to
die"

CHURCH PROPERTY.

Rule l. In cases not adjudicated by
the Joint commission, any society of
either church, constituted according
to its Discipline, now occupying the
church property, shall remain in pos
session thereof, provided that where
there is now in the same place asociety
of more members attached to the
other church, and which has hitherto
claimed the use of the property, the
latter shall be entitled to possession.i 1
Rule2. Forasmuch as we have no
power to annul the decisions respect
Ing church property made by State
courts, the joint commission ordain In
respect thereof: /. that In cases In
which such decision has been made,
or in which there exists an agreement,
the same shall be carried out in good
faith. ,. that in communities where
there are two societies, one belonging
to the Methodist Episcopal Church,
North, and the other to the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South, which have
adversely claimed church property, 1t
is recommended that without delay
they amicably compose their differ
ences, irrespective of the strict legal
title, and settle the same according to
strict Christian principles, the equities
of particular case, and, so far as prac-
ticable, according to the principles of
a foregoing rule; but if such settle.

the question shall be referred for equi-
table decision to three arbitrator, one
to be chosen by each claimant from
their respective societies, and the two
thus chosen shall select third person
not connected with either of said
churches, and the decision of any two
shall be final; and third, that in com
munltles IN which there is but one
society, rule first shall be faithfniIv

Rule 3. Whenever necessary to carry
foregoing rule into effect, the legal
title to the church property shall be

FORTY YEARS BEFORE THE PUBLIC.
DIR. G. MCLANE'S
CELEBRATED
LIVER PILLS,
Hepatitis or Liver Complaint,
DYSPEPSIA AND SICK HEADACHE.

Symptoms of Diseased Liver.
DAN in the right side, under the
edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain
is felt under the shoulder blade, and
it frequently extends to the top of
the shoulder, and is sometimes mis-
taken for rheumatism in the arm.
The stomach is affected with loss of
appetite and sickness; the bowels in
general are Costive, sometimes alter
native with lax; the head is troubled
with pain, accompanied with dull,
heavy sensation in the back part.
There is generally a considerable loss
efmemory, accompanied with pain
full sensation of having left undone
something which ought to have been
done. A slight, dry cough is some
times an attendant. Tie patient
complains of WEAKNESS and debility;
he is easily startled, his feet are cold
or burning, and he complains of a
prickly sensation Of the skin; his
spirits are low; ard although he is
satisfied that exercise would be bene-
fetal to him, yet he can scarcely
summon up fortitrde enough to try
it. In fact, he distrusts every rem
edy. Several of the above symp-
toms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few Of them ex-
listed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has Shown the LIVER to
have been extensively derangeC
AGUE AND FEVER.
DR.. c. McLANE'S LIVER Pills,
IN CASES OF ACUE AND FEVER, when
taken with Quinine, are productive
of the most happy results. No better
cathartic can be used, preparatory
to, or after taking Quinine. We
would advise all who are afflicted
with this disease to give them A
FAIR TRIAL.
For all Bilious arrangements, and
as a simple purgative, they are I'M
equaled.

METHODIST.
Bishops Address and Basis Of Agree
ment Between the Two Branches
Of the Church North and
SOuth,

The following is the basis of full
agreement between the two branches
of the Methodist Church North and
South, as agreed upon at Cape May,
by the Joint Commissioners, and as
set forth in the address to Bishops,
ministers and members
"You will be rejoiced to learn that
after having given due attention to all
questions involved in fraternity be-
tween the two great branches of Epis-
copal Methodism in the United States,
we have arrived at a settlement of
every matter affecting US, we suppose,
principles of a lasting and cordial adj
justment. We have the satisfaction
to declare that our aspirations for
harmony of views in vital points have
been realized, by divine guidance, as
we trust. We have been able, after a
frank interchange of views and prayer
full endeavors to harmonic all differ
ences and to arrive at the desired con-
summation of unanimous agreement
of complete fraternity.
At the beginning of our consulta-
tons one great question seemed to over
shadow all others. 1t concerns the
relation of the two churches to each
other and to Episcopal Methodism.
To this important matter our most
earnest thought and prayerful deliber-
ations were first directed, and the re-
suit attained occasioned an interchange
of rejoicing and congratulations be-
tween members of the joint commission
We adopted, without dissentingvOice
the following declaration and basis OF
fraternity:
