THE METHODIST C0NFEREHCgs-Two General Con
fcrences of the Methodist Church are now i'll pro-
grCss the white branch of the Church. i'll Cincinnati
and the colored. in st. Louis. Every report by out
side observers of the first mentioned body calls aten-
tOn ody enough. to the personal appearance OF the
members of the Congress- who are described as an
exceptionally tine-lOoking body of men,. or as " a
marked improvement upon the old assem6lage Of
Methodist brethren. There is reason for this, ana
the reason is significant and worth the attention not
only of the Methodist but of every religious body.
The change in the physical appearance of these
men is simply an index to their change in character
and position among the mental forces OF the world
produced by education The eoldtashloned Methodist,
like the Hardshel Baptist as our mldde-aged read
ers will remember apt to despise cOInal learning.
He from the ranks he houted the graceS. retl-
cences, precedents of more conservative churches;
he pushed or dragged men into the Kingdom OF
Heaven by pathetic appeals to their emotional nature
or whipped them in by the terrors OF bell: Dealing
principally with the uneducated classes, he under
valued agencies which did not effect them logical
conviction of the truth of Christianity was form OF
belief in which he put little faith; and reserve or
good taste in the profession of that conviction was
of the devil to souls Racy stories are yet
extant in the South and West of which the Methodist
itnerant parson of fifty years ago is the hero; ex
cObbler blacksmith big ervid, coarse, but usually
sincere: who. in the name of the Lord, preached
shouted, iOked ate, and sometimes fought MS way
This day is over This great body of Christian:
more than half century ago felt keenly the lack o
education in their ministry, and no denomination
believe devoes or money to the training
of its youth 1t still retains its hold on the grea
| middle and lower class, and for that reason thi
| Church has invariably taken an active part as
Church in all matters OF public lnteIest-slaIcry
| temperance Woman'S work etc. 1t is noticeable tha
! the first movements in both the Cincinnati and st
Louis Conferences was in favor of enlarged and NOR
solidly based educational measures.
Whether this church, when II has altered Its eharac
ter by enlarged culture and refinement, will lose it
peculiar hold on the class over whom it has SO lonl
exerted a saving influence, remains to be seen. Th

TIE Court which convened at New Castle
Monday, finds itself confronted at the out.
set with . large number of criminal viola
tions of the license law. Judge Comegys
was direct in his charge to the Grand Jury
and called their attention to the undis-
puted fact that most Of the crime commit
ted in the county and especially i'll Will
mington was the result of too free irdul-
gence in intoxicating drinks. The judge
said that he was informed that there are in
Wilmington one hundred and fifty un-
licensed groggsries warning against the good
of the community. The whole of the first
day was taken up in trying the compare
lively few cases that had been brought tc
the attention of the Court, the punishment
being about the uniform course in such
cases-$50 fine in the first offense, ant
