The crying evil among professing Chris tians of the present day, is the belligerent spirit manifested by differing denomina tions towards one another. To judge from the bristling bayonets and roar of artillery kept up by them, the world might well eonclude that " the kurch niilitart," in stead of being the Christian Church on earth engaged in a constant warfare with the devil and wickedness in all its forms, is a military church, composed of different regiments and Jarmies, -engaged ia a constant warfare against each other the one seek ing to exterminate the other.

The Conferences are composed of a hand ' of Brethren, united in one common des- i-tiny, and lixjkmg to t. e same great r- ward. Brotherly love and mutual forbear ' ance fihould be the feeling and principle of action towards one another. No jealous I ies, discord or even heart-burnings towards i one another should receive a moment's in j diligence. The purity and character cl ' the Church and of our holy religion must be maintained and vindicated at all haz j ards ; and if cases arise when tlicst demand ! the exercise of discipline and reproof, let ! it he done with firmness, but also with all christian charity and kindness, keeping far away every feeling that is antagonisti- I cal to the teachings of the blessed Son of God. Then shall the hands of the feeble j be stayed, and the valiant wax strong to fight the battles of the Lord. The Laity of our Church have a right to expect this holy, pious example to be net them by their Ministry. As a general thing they provide well for their Preachers, and take good care of their families. And while they are thus contributing of their worldly goods to the servants of the Lord, they should not suffer the cause of God to j bp.
