Since the rebellion a case has arisen iu Virginia of some interest. Dr. Lanahan, now one of the book agents in New York, was in 1SG5 a presiding elder of Winchester (Va.) district, and, in pursuance of a regular appointment, was in the pulpit of the church at Winchester on Sunday morn- iug. While waiting for the time to open the service, Rev. XorvalWilson, of the church south, entered and took possession, and conducted the meet- ing announcing that he would do so I 0 twic(j cli gUI1(jay thereafter. Dr. Lanahan ' -stated to the cono-reo-atioii h f sak( ftf order he had gub mitted to the intrusion. , rru ins remained in ession of the Methodist Episcopal and Mr. Wilson and his friends h prosecuted a suit for the recovery of tbe property,' which had been in their hands from 1S43 to the becinnino- I w of the rebelliou. The case was finally uecjueu ast WCek by Judge Parker, in favor of the present occupauts.
