A BIG FUND FOR J;
RELIEF. OF C |. LERGY :
Plan Suggested BY Christian Ad.
vocate Objection Of North
ernsMetnodists to Word.

The ma tier of increasing the amount Of
money auotred 10 #SuperaIlfuateu 1liniS-s
tiers, their widows and orphans, without
imposing additional assessments upon
the annual conference is attracting muca
attention in the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South. Various plans ard
suggestions have been made, and the
lalesr comes from the Christian Advccate,.
cs this city, the organ OF hesVirsinia
and baltimore Conferences. The sug-
se stion by the Advocate OF a plan by.
which the nucleus OF a vested superan-
nuated fund could be secured at an early
date is, to say the least, novel. The Ad-
sVocate says, in part:
1T is known that several of the an
nual Conferences have already, by reso-
luton, memorialized the General Con-
ference to return to the Congress OF the
United States the entire sum of S2SS,0 900,
Cotained from that body for the use ana
damage of our publishing house prop
e.ty during the civil war. It is quite
certain that it would not be accepted
Besides, it would be a sort of admission
that it did not rightfuly belong to u.s.
Congress fully recognized the fact that
the money was justly due us. The only
complaint made by the committee ap-
pointed by the Senate to investigate the
manner in which the appropriation was
procured was that the Senate had been
and Mr.. T.. 3. Stahlman, their attorney.
as to the compensation paid the latter
fer his services. The committee depre-
Gated the diversion Of SO large a proper.
ton of the whole amount paid-25 per
cent-from its proper beneficiaries. They
exonerated the Church from all blame,
but charged that it's agents and their
attorney had suppressed the truth and
niisrepresented the facts in the case. II.
therefore, the General Conference would
require that the publishing-house should
refund the s1OOS00 paid to Mr.. Stahlman,
TIE same to be handed over to trustees
appointed by the General Conference,
ard by them to be invested for the bene-
tit Of the superannuated claimants in the
several Conferences, the ground of COM
plant would thus be removed, and the
unhappy affair that has so disturbed and
distressed the Church be forever set
tied. The publishing-house may not be
prepared at once to refund the whole
amount. but it should be required to do
81 at the very earliest period that It's
ii, apcal condition will allow.
Mr.. James NJ. Green, of Anderson w.
Va, urges the necessity of such a funo,
and says in ten years it ought to reach
$4,000, 600.
