provisions Of Cape May Commission

Nix EDITOR-In your issue of 10th
inst, your correspondent at Bayview,
Va, signing his name \, asks me to
give the provisions OF the Cape May
Commission. With your permission,
before doing 80. would like to refer
acai;l TO certain erroneous statements
that l hear are being made with refer
ence to the action Uf the General Con-
ference, NJ. Y. Church South, which as
SAMPLED in Richmond, May, last. DR.. j..
D Blackwell, of Portsmouth, Va.-one
of our foremost men, was chairman OF
the committee OIL the relations OF the
two churches, and in answer to a letter
from me, he says:
mo one thought Of, or suggested, Sc
far as know or believe, Organic I'm
ion. The real design so far as our home
work IS concerned was to put an end to
lust the work you tell me certain per-
sons are doing, !. g., to prevent Our
church from intruding upon the field Of
another. when that field was cultivated
by the chur, b already in pOssession;this
was the very thing aimed at, that altar
should not be erected against altar; that
when one Methodism fairly cultivated a
town or district of country, the other
should not 90 in and spend its money
aud men on occupied territory. The
question Of Organic Union was not a
matter Of consideration at all. 1t was
not before the committee Of which was
chairman, nor was it before the General
Conference at all for moments conSid-
GRAFTON. cannot state that any stronger.
The Conference is not responsible for
what uninformed papers may have pub
lished, or people ignorant of the subject
may have said. haye no reason to be-
lieve that anybody in the General Con-
ference OF connected with this action,
whether member of the Conferences OF
not, had any thought Of Organic Union
Of the two churches.
Now, Mr.. Editor, how.does that com.
polt with the stat, ment that the two
churches WILSON be uneY They should
be close to each other in mutual respect
and love, recognizing the fact that they
are co.eQuals in the great work Of
spreading scriptural holiness over these
laiIds.' But That does not involve a
! formal union AS one has said, three
or foul families LIVING in separate dwell
llngs will be the best of friends, but if
brought into one house to dwell tOgetll-
er, will fall out with each other. Christ
ian union CAN and does exist without
Organic UniuD." 1twere an easy task
to give reasons for each church to maiil-
tam aud perpetuate its separate anu IN
