''Th* Methodist Church nAhe Uni ted States har!-divided into Northen and Southern before the war. Th? Northern Church say slavery was the cause, Southern Methodists say it was the occasion. But whatever may be the precise truth about the matter, all admit that slavery was at the bottom of it. Bishop Andrew, of Georgia, owned slaves, or his wife did, and the Northern people did not like it, while the Southern peo ple stood by him, and this Jed to a separation. But now Bishop An drew is dead, and so is slavery ? and on both sides of the line there is a feeling after fraternization. No de cided action has been taken on either side, but committees o'f conference have been appointed, and although individuals oppose, the work of peace is evidently making progress. The following from The Methodist we have no doubt contains much truth : The consummation of fraternity between Northern and Southern Meth odism does not depend on individu als, or the expression of individual feeling. Individuals may retard it, but, nev?rthele8s, great social forces will surely work it out.

It is a fearful warning that North Carolina and Tennessee and Kentucky have given to the fanatics of the North and it remains to be seen whether it will be appreciated as such or whethe? it will be ascribed to " local differences" in each of these States. With us here in North Carolina the result has been as gratifying as it has been stupendous, and its benefits are yet to be reckoned up in the future.
