The United States has LOO, 900 Ne

Rev. @. T. Walker, a noted Baptist
divine Of New York. observes: "The
colored people are religiously inclined; {;
they do not have skeptics, infidels,
atheists, agnestics. They have very lit.
tie trouble about the higher criticism
and need no ecclesiastical courts to try
men fer heresy. T he majority OF them
believes firmly in the triple decla aration
Of one Lord, one faith, and one bap-
tism."
A Conference of soIored Methodist
preachers in Delaware, recently adopt

vate friendly relationship with the
secular world they could claim 10 have
