" Resolved, That after a full and pa, tient examination of the. particulars. of the Episcopal admmistration of the Sou thren Bishiops in relation to the Plan of Separation, the General Conference of the M. E. Church,.South, consider thme charges so repeatedly made by the Edi tors aitnd correspondents of the Western Christian Advocate, anid the Christian Advocate atnd Journal, against Bishops Soule and Andrew, asentirely ground-. less; and that on the contrary the ad. mitnistration a foresaid hss been strictly conformed to the rule set forth b~y au thority of the General Conference of the M. E. Church, in its legislation on this subject in 1844;" which was read and adopted. Mr. Crowder presented a report fronm the sanme committee in relation to the memorial fronm Westnoreland Circnit, Va., and recommending that the said Circuit be embraced within the bounds of the MV. E. Church, South. The Conference granted leave to Mr. L. *M.

Mr. Drake, by permission of the Con ference presented a memorial from the members of the Church in Perersburg, Va., praying that the Book Concern, East, be located in that place, which read, and B shop Andrew, by like permission, presented a memorial from Covington, Kr-nturky, on the same subject, which was tead. Bishop Soule in the chair. The Conference proceeded to select the place for the location of the Eastern division of the Book concern. New York, Richmond, Petersburg and Char leston were severally nominated. Dr. Smith, after explaining the rea sons-why the committee referred the se lection of the place for the location of the Eastern division of the Book con cern, enlatged upon the following points, she-wing that Richmond, Va., instead of New York, was the proper place for the location of the Eastern establishment. 1. The membership of the Churoh within the bounds of the Virginia Con ference would not liberally c'intribute money to build up another Book con cern in the city of New York. In this opinion of the wishes and sympathies of the membership, the brethren of the Vir ginia Delegation fully concurred with hint. 2. New York affords facilities-great factlilis, it is true, for the publication of books, but he maintained .that the es tablishtent located in Richmond, could I as efectually secure them, as if located 1 in the city of New Yo k. 3. He suggested the dimculy of en 4. The location of the Book concern in New York would be in violation of the great and important design of the Flan of Separation. True, he said, it would. violate no express provision of the plan, but its general dt sign, whic: was to pro mote the peace of the two great bra eh t s of the Methodist family of the Un;ted States. Dr. Hamilton said,-A Book concern located in Ridtitond o0 Petersburg would fail to nwaes the views and command the supputt of the Church in the extrema South. For they had imbibed the sen timent, right or wrong, that the expense of publication would be unnecessarily high, much higher than in New York. A Delegate from one of the Conferences in the exteme South had informed him, that if the Book room was located in Richmond, the market of the would would be open before him, and he should buy where he could do so cheapest. Dr. Smith said that if we located it in New York, it would be for the purpose of competition, and thus we should be brought into collision with the N. York Book concern. But who has said this ? No one. He should deprecate this as much as any other man. But it need not and iould not be. We should go there not for competition, but to save our mot ney. - . Mr. Drake replied to Dr. Hamilton, and gave his views, generally, agtinst New York. Mr. Redman moved that the act of the Conference, deciding that there should be oneadivision of the Book con cern in the West and one in the East, be considered.. Mr. Early opposed this proposition at considerable length..i Mr. L. M. Lee obtained thae floor, but it being half past 1 o'clock, he gave u ay, and after a benedictiosi by Bishop Soule, the Conference adjourned. . Tkursday, May 14, 1846.
