Vhen true piety and greatness of J mind are combined, they furm ah insuperallo barrier to tho most daring and formidabto oppnsitiou. Nothing can crush their aspiring eflorts. With these tho immortal Luther shook the Papal throne to its centre, and threw the insol lent Pontiffs of the Romish hierarchy into con fusion. W ith these a Wichifc of York . shire, England ; a Heiss. of Bohemia; and a Zletancthon, of Gcrrmny, brared the thua dersof the Fiican,arJ produced. a tremcn. dous reformation throughout Europe. With the same, u Wesley of pnglan j lit up a torch which has been carried, with lightning speed, throughout tho western! hemisphere. iThro"1 his agency one1 of the greatest moral achieve- menls has been efiVctcd (with one exception) ever known in ecclesiastical history. His enemies uro compelled to acknowledge it ; arid posterity will award lo hira the merit lie Justly deserves,f:f :J And though on account of his pccular rela tion to the Church of England, j doubtless growing out of a providential interposition, it might be supposed he w'as an enemy to that Church, yet it is notoriously true that his at. tachments to that Church wero strong, and were never sundered. iFor her, he: manifest ed throughout tifci more than on ordinary re. gard nnd chiisliancourjesy. It is well known that he never.withdrewi from her pales, hav-' ing remained ii faithful member all his life. Such being the case it may be asked why Mr. Wesley made regulations so distinct, both in character and tendency, from the estab. lished Church ? 1 nnswer that necessity drove him to it. The exigencies of the case de manded it. . Around him were thrown a train of circumstances which he could not control, and which and obey. he,was morally hound jto respect A ! number j of societies had sud. deniy aprang up, of whom the Church of Eng.' (and would take no cognizance, and who were dependant upon some one for instruction and .advice. Men of high population, circulating jQ the first order of society;, distinguished iliko fur their piety and devotion , and com landing the respect of an enlightened and fatuous community, gave the fullest assuran. ces of their duty lo " ininisler in holy things." What were these men lo do?. . Were they to edeharred of the privilege of performing obligations at once the ixiost imperative ? Had ;jot the Church of England sought to crush the efforts of MrJ Wesley 4 arid to cast into eternal oblivion the whob fnternity ? As ah tionest man, and as a trua L.iristiarr.mlnister, bo could pursuo no otberjcou.rsc. l. . I And, as"U regards -Mr. Wesley's power , it fl well known! that it .exceeded .that of our American bishops. This- difference is very (irikingly set forth by the following extracts ; :) ' 1. Mr. Wesley was the patron of nil the Jilt-' Jist pipits In Great BritaB"and Ireland l(Ci" ( the sole. right of nomination being in led in him by all the deeds of settlement ,vhich gave him j exceeding great power. 'The proDefty of. the preaching houses is in Vested in the trustees ;f and the right of com- ihMio3.tn the General ponferencp, and such as i the General Conference,- shall, from lime to lime, appoint. ! This division of power in favor of the General Conference : was abso tcW neccssarr.l Without it. the itenerant nlan could not exist fof any long continuance The trustees would1 probably, in many instan ces, from their located situation, insist upon having their favorite preachers stationea in their circuits, or endeavor to prevail upon the rrsachers themselves to locate among tnem or choose some other settled minister for their chanels. In other cases, the trustecsof preach urj honscain dijerent circuits would probably Iist upon having the; same popular or favo- nreochers. Here, then, lies tnc grana ' . J! - ft . .

Bui our American lishnps, hare no probtbili. ly of b-;ing rich ; for not a cent of public mo n y is al ' their disposal. 'itie Conference have the entire direction of the whole. Their salary is aixty.fuur dollars a year ; (tho bish. ps were ton single men) and their travel, ling expenses are also defrayed. We have drawn these' comparisons be tween our venerable father and the American bishops, to show ta.ihe world that they po. S2S not and, we may aad, they aim not to possess that power which ha exercised, and had a right to exercise, cs tho father of to connection: lhat, on the contrary,' they are perfectly dependant; that their power,- their usefulneKs, themselves, are" entirely ui the mercy of the General Conference ; and, on the charge of immorality, at to mercy of two-thirds of the little conference pf nine.M It bo seen, from the above extracts. lat Mr. Wesley's power was pretty conside rable "It fir exceeded that of the American ishops. ;But no power was ever Jmore pru. dentlv ' and discreetly used.. All his acts, both private and public, fully corroborate this osition. And that system of " RELTGI- (JUS UUSrOTJSM" which would unblushinclv fasten imnn radicatism him, only 2ars,the evidence of a mortified ambition; nd shows how fara ma n may be carried in mak. ing a last, desperate effort lo attain some anr. 'tious end. 1 would ask the supporters of this cruel charge if ever they have been able, loughthey have used every effort "to do so, to make good this charge! I would ask them point out one single feature in the power or authority of Mr. Wesley which ever partook of a RELIGIOUS DESPOTISM? Can they do it? As great sticklers as they seem to be for republicanism, I question, very much, after all their degraded inuendoes and vile in sinuations, as well as their vaunted claims to national rights and liberty if they have ever been able, in the 'exercise of their power, to regulate the affairs of their church with more discretion, and to render all their ecclesiastical operations moire conducire to genera! good.1 With due candor it will bo admitted lhat the power of Mr. Wesley was extraordinary, but that power was judiciously applied. 1 I believe it is a maxim generally admitted lhat it matters not what may be the extent of the power or authority of a man, so he has the proper wisdom! and prudence to apply ;ii. Here lies the Secret. By the folly of an indiscreet helmsman the ship is left to be driven by the fury of the merciless tem pest but the judicious . helmsman properly pplies his power and skill,1 and thereby se cures his vessel from tho dangers of a turbu. lent sea. The discreel prince, in the exer cisc pf his power, looks to the happiness and well being of his subjects. So that power, no matter how absolute, which is wielded by proper discretion, and with a view to the at tainment of some judicious end, will always result in the production of the greatest a- mount of total good. With some, such pow. er would be exceedingly and disastrously dangerous, not having the proper maturity of judgement, as, well as the proper honesty. to use it. Hence. has arisen a restrictive power which is to regulate, to the best nd vantage, such high and assumptive preruga lives. . This restrictive power is recognised both in church and state. Bu: alt know that it is not always convenient and I may add expedient t to havo such restrictive power o agency either in the one or tho other. Un der such circumstances government is found ed in mutual confidence., A reciprocal confi denre is strictl observed Jwth on ihe part of the subjects and the ruler. , Such was the case with the early fouodersd Methodism In its' venerable founder both the clergy and laity ;wcro . willing to repose implicit confi dence,. and to abide any decision he might makcl And : tho power which he cccrciscd both as it regards his being patron of all the Methodist pulpits in Great Britain and Ireland for life, and the nht of nomination of preach crs to! all chapels, he never departed from any nrlnrtnle of true t iiv, Jior jsanctioncd or ciicoqrafred nny sy&:em of whm. - " . i : - Cr W.
