CHARGES AGAINST MIR. VAUGHAN.
MANASSAS, VA, March l5 1884.

To the editor of the Alexandria Gazette:
My attention has just been called to u
statement made by correspondent in your
columns TO the effect that ut the recent xes.
sion of the Virginia Conference of the NJ. E.
Church charges were preferred against Rev.
Mr.. Vaughan "by Mr. Round, as attorney
for complainant, and he was on hand with
his witnesses but the committee did not
consider the matter of sufficient importance
to be noticed by the conference"
1t is not true that preferred any charges
or that was attorney for the complainant,
who did prefer charges, or that | was pre-
sent with witnesses to support the charges
which were preferred. The only charges
preferred were made by Mr.. J. p Baldwin,
who asked Inc TO be present as Il witness at
The examination, though a. matter of fact
I was not called on except once by Mr..
Vaughan, and took no part beyond that,
except that Of n silent spectator. The main
specification in Mr.. Baldwin's charges was
regarding trustee difficulty at Manassas in
which I had not sided with either Mr..
Vaughan or Mr.. Baldwin. The committee
reported that there was nothing in the
charges and on the basis of their report the
Bishop administered severe rebuke to Mr..
Baldwin, a rebuke perfectly justiable if the
report of the committee was a correct one,
as be had right to presume it to be-
In this condition of aittir5 considered it my
duty to say to the Bishop, and to each one of the
| reverend gentlemen who served on said committee,
that q, silent observer of tho proceedings of the
committee must say that their investigation
was the 'variest farce" had ever witnessed, and
that in my opinion their report was not justified
by the proofs submitted by Mr.. Baldwin and ad
mitted by Mr.. Vaughan.
1t not nfrequently happens that my convic-
lions oblge me to sdo with weak minority
against powerful majority. Your correspondent
may have inferred that was attorney in the
matter, but such was not the fart. On the con-
trary was one OF the trustees whose right to act
Mr. Baldwin disputed. Nevertheless am lover
Of fair play and I must say a. lawyer that Mr.
Baldwin clearly established the only charge on
which evidence was received by the committee,
and believe that square statement of the facts
before the conference would have done less harm
to the church than the evident determination to
vhtc-wash and to smother. Respectfully &C.
GEO. e. ROUND.

TILE REPUBLICANS are nothing if not ill.,
sincere. They profess to be enamored of
protection, not for the reason that it spe-
cially benefits the North, but because of
their admiration for the wisdom and justice
of the protective system. Yet they adopted
the Mexican treaty because it allows North
err manufactures 10 be sent into Mexico
free of duty, and because it allows Mexican
sugar to be imported free of duty into this
country, as it only compates with South
ern product. But in the face Of all this
there are Southern men, and, strangest Of
all, Southern men calling themselves demo-
Gratis, who oppose tariff reform and who
favor the continuance of the unjust and
onerous protective system.

A BILL was passed hy the last Congress
providing Tor public building at Abingdon,
the people Of which place have ever since
Deeu in daily expectation Of the commence
meut Of the work and Of the employment
and pay of the large number of laborers
ouch work will necessilate. 1t Turns out,
however, that the delay has been occasioned
by General Malone, who has requested the
Secretary of the Treasury to postpone the
erection Of the building. The bill has been
passed, and The requisite amount of money
been set aside, and IS lying idle i'll the Treas
ury The Generals nominal reason for
stopping the work is that IL bill has been
introduced in the present Congress for hold
in. the L. S. Court at some other place
than Abingdon. But that the real reason
is 10 increase his vote at the next election
in all the towns and counties spoken Of in
connection with the possible place for hold
lug the court, by making them competitors
for his favor, is not only openly asserted by
Mr.. Fukerson, but is proved by the way in
which the new bill referred To has been al
lowed to slumber in its pigeon hole. The
ways of the General are wicked, but they
are not past finding out.
