The Cincinnati Sun of Saturday, tho 5th instant, notices, at some length a bitter feud 'existing' among some f the Methodists of that vicinity divided into what are term, ed by that paper, tfce Bishop's Party and the Preacher's Party. ' It arose from a dif ference of opinion about the purity of Bish op Hamline, formerly Editor cf the Ladies Repository at Cincinnati. '- . 5The Rev. Mr. Harlan an'd his good lady, - are accused of slandering the Bishop, and the Reverend g mleman was brought- be fore Conference oa charges to' that effect, preferred by the Rev. Mr. Finley, and sus pended pending an investigation before a committee, of seven clergymenj which end ed in Mr. Harlan's acquittal and reinstate ment. Since that time, Mr; Harlan says he has been compelled in self-defence 10 issue a-pamphlet statement. From this pamphlet, and information the editor of the , Sun has elsewhere derived, he states that some years ago, the Bisop. was reported as immoderately fond of women, his fondness assuming anything but" a Platonic aspect: - Th ReV. Mr.. Harlan ascribes this to. a species of insanity and says this belief prevented any action being taken against the very reverend offender, as did the be- , lief that more recently he had been free from offence in that respect. To put down ail rumors affecting his, the Bishop's purity,. the. Rev. Mr. Harlan was accused of "immoral ( conduct" in circula ting a report that Bishop Hamline had se duced Miss A- B, afterwards Mrs. S , who is now dead and of "false hood," in saying that forty preachers knew it. - . . The Rev. Mr. Harlan, in his defence, says that he did not circulate the alleged charges; that he accused Bishop Hamline on the ground of moral insanity; that the bishop's friends had misrepresented his present condition ; and adduces proof that the bishop was guilty.. We extract a pas sage claiming to show how the Miss B. matter was brought to light : . u Miss B. it appears, was one of the con. fidential friends of Mrs. Hamline, and by special request paid her a visit some time during the winter of 1840 or 1841. I Dur ing Miss Baker's brief stay in the city, Aire. Hamline took occasion one day to hold a conversation with ' her in reference to the corruptions prevalent- in the higher circles of society. 'You are not aware,' said Mrs. Hamline to her .friend Miss Ba ker, of .the evils of cjty life ; you country girls would be shocked taj hear some things that occasionally transpire among the weal thy and aristocratic, whose position in so ciety would hardly suggest the thoflrrht of the depravities of which they are sometimes guilty. Mrs. Hamline . then to show the justness of her temarks about city life, re lated a singlar story of seduction, in sub stance about as follows : " "A wealthy gentleman, of fine talents and prepossessing in his person and man ners, became inordinately attached to a young lady of superior accomplishments and of an aristocratic family. The gen tleman 'was previously married, but disre garding his marriage vovvs, sought oppor tunity to woo this young , lady, until at length she fell a victim to his lustful pro pensities. The young lady, afterward, be ing convicted upon reflection, oi her grie vous fall, could no longer retain the secret within her own bosom, but confessed the whole matter to tne wite ct tnis accom plished voluptuary. And what renders this affair so deplorable both of these per-; sons are members of the Church." t Bishop Hamline, it is also alleded, on one occasion inadejt confession to Mrs. H. that he had seduced Miss B., and. Mrs. Hamline afterwards told Miss Baker, that the story she had told of a seduction in ar istocratic circles, referred to her husband, Bishop Hamline. The Sun publishes the following extract from the Rev. Mr. Harlan's pamphlet. It is relative to the Bishop's reputation among his brethren. It appears to be a report of the Rev. Mr. Harlan's defence before the Committee of Investigation : - - A short time after my first acquaintance -with Dr. Bascom, which commenced in 1839. be told me that he considered Dr. Hamline a man of brilliant talents, but he was a monomaniac. ; f The speaker (Bro. Harlan) was here in terrupted by one of tfie committee, who ask ed. "On what particular subject did Dr. , Bascom say he considered Mr. Hamline's insanity to consist?" The reply was "in reference to, women ! ' At our late conference in Cincinnati, met Dr. Durbin as I was going to mail some letters to Mrs. Hamline. and inform- ed him or the posture of affairs in refer- ' enee to Mr. Hamline. I then read to the , doctor those letters to which I have referr ed. and he remarked, 41 1 always had an intuitive impression that there was some thing wrong with Bishop Hamline. and -.never could account for the impression. I iTw-as supprised when be was elected Bish -op;" - - t v - Since-Conference, I fell in with ex-Gov ernor, Trimble, and bad a conversation with him in reference to the nature of those dif ficulties which occasioned my being left without an appointment, - In this con ver eation the Governor remarked that he had always considered Mr. Hamline unwor thy of confidence,. since his career at Zanes- viile. ' ' A short time after bis (Hamline's) elec tion to the Episcopacy, his character among me soumern peoDle. was occasionally neia ,; up- to the ribaldry and scorn .of those who were, on oiner grounds, dissatisfied with - JNorthern Methodism. Rev Mr. Couch one of the delegates from Kentucky, who airenueu me oenerai Conference of 1844 spoke id the most emphatic language of iur. niiiujiuB, as a person utterly unfit for tne Diga position to wntcu he had attain ed. 1 " I was at the Convention, of Delegates representing the Methodist Episcopal uourcn in tne soumern states, held atLjou uville, in 1845. and in a private circle heard the case of Bishop Hamline discuss- ed by some of the Southern Delegation. While listening to several things about the Bishop, which I regard as too coarse and indelegate here to repeat, one of them pre sent turned to Dr. Lalta and ; said, "I be- ieve Doctor vou are an author. ; You have written some books about women and chil dren. . Now, I should lik lo see a book from the pen of Bishop Hamline entitled Hamline on Women.' 1 he allusion was nificant and as a matter of course a hearty laugh ensued. AN ADVENTURE. The following thrilling account of an ad venture with a lion in the wilds of Soul h- ern Africa, is extracted from a record of an African sporting expedition, recently pub- lshed in an LiOglish magazine: Whilst breakfast was preparing, I ' pro ceeded to take a saunter down to the pool, not without some faint hopes of n bath, though I feared our horse, to say nothing of the other animals who bad visiied it dur ing the night, might have muddied it too much for that. However, I resolved to try, and throwing my Minnie into the hol- ow of my arm, and cocking my wide awake over my eyes, lounged down a path among the busbes.vnow well beaten by the feet of man and horses. The latter I found up to their bellies in the pool, enjoying themselves as completely as the flies would let them ; but the water looked uncommon ly turbid, I thought I would skirt along a ittle to the left and look for a cleaner spot; and so climbing a short steep, cover ed with long grass and underwood. I dash ed aside some branches wbieh intervened between me and a small clear space of shorter turf and to my very intense as tonishment, though I must say not at the moment to my dismay, 1 was so used to he sight of them found mveelf wit.nn a few yards of one of the finest male lions 1 ever saw, and wno was engaged witn a ook of grave patriarchal interest in watch ing the movement o the horses blow doubtless selecting one for his breakfast r- Have you not seen Landseer's catching of the lion in the old Tower Menagerie In exactly the same attitude, still and unraov ing, like a noble statue, stood this neighbor of mine; and, for a few moments, I remain ed really lost m admiration of the grand j beauty of the tableau he presented. I It was, however, necessary to decide on . some line of action immediately. I could I not help hitting, if 1 chose to fire, but if 1 did not kill him outright with one shot, he was so close to me that I could hardly hope to escape without an ugly brush. Surely this was a case in which discretion would be the better part of valor; and as he was so absorbed in the contemplation of the horse below that he had not yet noti ced me, I concluded (as Jonathan would say) to steal off as I came. Ah ! that dry twig that would place itself in the way of my very first retrogado foot-step I Ihe sharp crackle effected what tbe more sub dued noise of previous movements had not done, and with a short startled growl, the beast switDg himself round, and in a second, was, starting at me with a look which said, "Halloo I who are you?" ns plainly as ook could speak. Instinctively, I threw my rifle forward, cocking it at the same moment, and some seconds of perfect irn moveableness on each side ensued, during which 1 was trying to make out whether he would' charge or not. The study of physiognomy is doubtless pleasant enough on the whole : but when your object is a large male lion, and the question depend ing on the study whether you will be sum marily smashed" or let alone, why I con fess it becomes (as Mr. Weller says) too exciting to be pleasant. How I studied ever feature, trying to fetect . change of some 6ort which gave me a clue I It came at last; he gradually owered bis head, and by the wiggling motion of his hind quarters, which I could just spy over his shoulders, I saw he was gathering his hind legs under him a sure indication. What odd things come into people's minds in moments of peril I That movement brought to my recollection most vividly a bitterly parallel scene in my aunt's garden at Harrow, where 1 watch ed her cat gathering herself up in an ex actly similar way to pounce on a wretch ed sparrow The next moment he dashed at me with a hoarse snarl, which sounded as though a giant had drawn the buw suddenly across the strings of a stupendous violin cello. I fired as he rushed in. aiming as well as 1 could at the middle of his fore head. As I did so, I was swept down with the force of an express train, and for a few seconds lost all consciousness The first thing I was sensible of. a? soon as I began to get my senses together, was the clear, strong voice of N calling to me in the most placid, though earnest man ner: "Lie perfectly still, Walter, it's your on ly cnance." How my heart leaped at the voice I Help was at hand, but the very words that announced it at the same time pointed out my extreme danger: it needed only the most moderate exercise of my returning faculties to understand why. . I was lying on my face among the long grass at the top of tbe little steep I have mentioned, I could see nothing, but I could feel the lion close to me. 1 could hear bis deep, short, angry breath, like staccato purrs of an enormous cat could detect a smack ing noise, which I afterwards found aros from his licking at a stream of blood which flowed down the side of bis nose, from a deep wound on bis forehead, given him by my ball nay, 1 could feel his huge tail, as he rolled it angrily across from side to side, rest for a moment on my back now and then. The bitter anguish of those few years of moments well, you can guess all that. Presently I heard the crack of a rifle on my left, a sharp whistle close to my head and a third on my risrht, as the shot told among the fur, succeeded by another short, sham srmrt louder1 than the first another crack, b sensation like a red hot wire across my heck, f being at tne bottom ot the slope. they could but? just sight the lion over my head, and N had tired a quarter of an inch too low,) another furious snarl and then a roar, and such a roar-within a yard of my" tympanum. I never heard such a sound out of anything, living or dead ; then three or more shots close to gether, and a bustle at my side, which sounded like my neighbor settling down among the grass ami bushes. " Now roll ! roll for your life I" shouted N 's clear voice again. I was saved the trouble-ihe dying brute, in his con vulsions giving me a kick with his hind legs, which sent me flying down the steep, out of reach of farther danger. A FAST BOY.
