Methodist Episcopal General Conference.
ADDRESS OF THE BISHOPS.
DEAS BRETHREN: We hail with feeliings of devout
gratitude the opening of another session of the General
Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church South.
Circumstances connected with the late unhappy war
have prevented us from an earlier meeting; and now
that we are permitted by Divine Providence to assemble,
the important interests that will engage our attention
demand that, with all sobriety and prayerfulness, we
address ourselves to their consideration.
We have to review the operations of the Church for
eight years-embradnT a period during which important
and startling events have crowded on^each other in
rapid succestion. When the last general Conference
closed, we anticipated an earlier reunMffcn this city;
but the well-known condition of thiarsnrt the time ap?
pointed in regular order for our mewng, precluded our
convening here. And ever since, until within the last
few months, lt has been impracticable to call the Con?
ference together. When it was definitely decided that
the Conference could not meet at fte proper time and
8lace, there being no law in the Discipline authorizing
ie Bishops to convene the General Conference, and
the state of the country also belog such as to render lt
doubtful whether any considerable number of the
preachers cou'd be collected together for tho purpose of
holding such a session if called, the Bishops, feeling the
Importance of wise counsel In tbe emergency, published)
a card inviting a meeting of the Bishops, Book Comm?
tee and others, to consult togeiher on divers Imperien
subjects connected with the immediate interests ortho
Church. Such a meeting was held, first at Atlanta, Ga. ;
afterwards at Macon, Ga. ; aud then at Montgomery,
Ala. In August last the Bishops alone met for consulta?
tion at ColumbUH, Ga. These various meetings were
seasons of Interest and profit to those who attended
them, and the results of our deliberations, as exhibited
lo the ?eaolutiona which we published, tended greatly,
na we have reason to believe, to promote the peace and
prosperity of the Church.
In order that the chat acter of those meetings may be
clearly appreciated, we would remind you that when
they were called it was dittlnctly stated that all the acts
of such meetings would be simply advisory. We dis?
claimed all authority to take any action that should be
binding on the Church, only as it might be approved as
wise and godly. We gave such advice as we judged best
for the Church in ber straitened circumstances If
the Annual Conferences approved lt, then they acted in
accordance with their own convictions; if not, then they
simply took their own course in all mattera that came
befure them, without reference to our advice. It ls for
the General Conference to decide whether wc transcend?
ed our authority in convening such advisory councils.
Early during the war the Bishops had to confine their
episcopal visitations to the territory east of the Missis?
sippi Biver. This was deeply regretted, but in our cir
cumitances it was unavoidable. The consequence was
that the Conferences weat of the Mississippi were de?
prived of episcopal supervision during nearly the whole
period of the war. We would not, however, fall to men?
tion that Bishop Eavanaugh, residing as he did wiihlu
the Fede ol lin- s, was able to visit the MlssonrWio St.
Louis, and the two Kentucky Conferences, ana was also
able to extend bis visitation^ to tho Californie work.
The rest of the Bishops werewss to extend their-i? >ors
to various parts of tho wornauthih thc Confederate
lines. Notwithstanding the fauTthat our episcopal su?
pervision ot the work has been necessarily partial, wc
are gratified to believe that thesfc>reichere have been
faithful generally to the interest 0/the Church ot God.
With but very few eiceptions.'the Annual Conferences
have been regularly held. The Presiding Elders and
preachers have filled their anpolnrments as of old; and
with humble gratitude to God, we nmntion the fact that
during the trying yrars through which we have passed,
gracious revivals of religion among our people have at
tested how the Divine presencjdKj been with na.
We do not attempt In this brief address to entor into
a detailed account of tho general state of the work.
Thank God that we have BO safely passed through a
most painful and fiery ordeal; that the church basrprc
served under bia blessing her integrity ; that she has in
nowise become complicated with political affairs; but
kueplng tn view her own high mission, has been satisfied
to perform her legitimate duties. w
It is proper to state to you that we'found it, in our
judgment, needful to tho interest of the work to depart
in some respects from the strict letter of the law of tho
church in our episcopal administration. Extraordinary
i exigencies required us to take this responsibility. In
the journals of the annual conferences which will come
before you, the particular instances in which we have
judged it beat to assume tbls grave responsibility will
appear. In all jnpn instances we wish ,it understood
that we do not ngerd such departures from the law as
establishing precedents for futuro guidance, but only aa
illustrating how ext-aordinary exigencies may make it
necessary to transcend the provisions of even the most
wholesomo hum tn regulations. From this experience,
however, the General Conference may fiud suggestions
that are valuable to guide lt in providing as far as prac?
ticable for contingencies in the future.
It would have been gratifying to us if we had been
able to bear the expense of more extensive travel
through the work; but in the impoverished state of the
church, and especially ia the absence of any provision
for more than a bare support of the Bishops, thia waa
1 apoaaible. Thia fact, we hope, will be suggestive to
your body.
In August last we d emed lt prudent to issue a "Pas?
toral Address to the Preachers and Members of the
Church," reminding them of their duty st Christian
citizens, and giving such advice as seemed to us appro?
priate to the peculiar circumstances of the times. As
that address has bren extensively published, we deem
ita formal transmission to you with this communication
unnecessary, and will only ask jour attention to such
parts of it aa we may find it proper to recapitulate on
particular points at this time.
1 he publishing intereetaof the church suffered great?
ly in conaequence of the war. The book concern will
require your careful consideration, and some important
changes in your p'an of operations may bo needful f .r
its future efficiency; of this, however, you will be better
prepared to j adge when you have heard the report of
the agent With pleasu-o we have welcomed the revival
of our Church papera, and while we regard them as in a
high degree creditable to the Church, we would respect?
fully submit whether lt would not be beat to unite con?
ferences in the puulicatlon ot a fewer number, in order
that they may be better supported and still further im?
proved.
Our missionary work, once the glory of our church,
has been well nigh ruined. Tho China mission still
Uves and nerds your fostering care. Although the finan
clal condition or the country at present forbids tL? ex?
pectation of large collections, yet we may make pros?
pective arrangements for doing a great work in that ex?
tensive field.
The interest of the colored population should engage
your serious attention. Heretofore the colored people
within our bounds have deserved and received a large
share of oar labors. We have expended our means and
strength, liberally and patiently, far many years, for
their salvation and improvement, and if in any wise our
conduct has not been appreciated by some on earth,
nevertheless our witness ison high and our reward is
in Heaven. It is grateful to our own feelings to know
that if the colored people do not remain nuder t un?
to ral care, their departure reflects no discredit upou our
labors in their behalf, and ts necessitated by no indif?
ference on onr part for their welfare. Many of them
will probably unite with the African M. E. Church,
some of them with the Northern Methodist Church,
while others withstanding extraneous Influences and
unkind n.ierr presentations of our Church, will remain
with us.
Let us be content to leave to Providence to vindicate
In due time oar scriptural relation to tho interest of the
colo; cd people. For those who remain with us, the
Church should provide i euer ou sly everything importaut
to their religious culture. Convinced that your body
takes the deepest interest in this subject, and will givo
it your special attention, we deem lt only needful to
speak of it in this general and suggestive form, and
especially as the Bishops. In their pastoral address last
August, brought the subject prominently to the notice
of our pe >ple.
In respect to tho Rep irate and distinct organization of
our church, no reasons have appeared to alter our views
as expresssd in August last. No proposal of fraternal
relations has come to us from others, neither do we re?
gard oursol ves as In anywise responsible for hosti itv
evinced towards us. While the attempt to take forcible
possession of our propeity and to disintegrate our
church, declare the mind that would destroy us, let lt
be ours to show the mind that was in Christ, in our
conscious integrity we should calmly await thc inevita?
ble hour when, in tho providence of God, an enlighten?
ed public opinion will vindicate our claims as a church
of God, and a true type of Methodism. Let us not be
Impatient for our vindication bo ore the world. The
great future is before us, and the great Head of the
Church smiles upon us. Our fidelity to God will most
perfectly reply to tho voice ot defamation.
In this connection, it is with pleasure that we refer to
the fact that many Christians in the North, and espec'al?
ly in the Northwest, sincerely sympathize with us. and
this sympathy, we have reason to believe, is dally as?
suming a more tangible and Impressive form. Ti at
there have,at the same time, been s.me defections in
the Church we care r.ot to disguise. A very few of ;""
whites have gone from us. This was, porhaps, to have
been expected. Our regret is rather for them than for
ourselves. But while we speak of small defections, we
4aay refer also to most graMlj lng accessions. The Bal?
timore Annual Conference is now represente^ by a dele?
gation in this bode, lu Februar; last, Bishop Early
formally rcc.lved into our ecclesiastical connection thia
Conference, consisting of ene hundred and foar minis
tera and a member-hip of twelve thousand.
It is agrateful duty to welcome these brethren among
ns, and to commend them to the confidence and affec?
tion of oar people. This is a large accession to our
members and territory. It 1-t also a testimony la our
favor that this is nobly borne by men whose former pcs
eitlon and long deliberations upon the subject as well
aa their known intelligence, will entitle it to special re
(pect. In our hearts we welcome them, and cordially
extend to them the rieht hand ot fellowship.
As a fact of interest to us and of promise to our future
influence, we may state that in the City of Baltimore
there have been organized several flourishing churches
upon an independent basis, composed of Methodists
whose warm svmpathles aro with us, and whose liberal
kindness bas "already contributed largely to aid ni in
our time of need, lajlng us under obligations by their
love and good works.
Our educational interests have been greatly daraigcd
by the war, and nearly all of our male institutions have
been closed. Providentially many of our female insti?
tutions have been kept in operation, and are still dis?
pensing the blessings of sanctified education to the
daughters of our land. Everything in our power should
be done to revive as speedily BR possible the male insti?
tutions under the patronage of our church.
In this connection we specially bring to your atten?
tion the importance of an institute for the proper twin?
ing of young preachers. That we should make some
proper arrangements for the more thorough training of
our young men before they are received into the Con?
ferences and Bent forth to minister in the Church of
Christ, appears to us tobe so obvious as to need no ar?
gument to prove lt. It behooves us to take this
matter into serious and immediate consideration, and
secure to the church the invaluable advantages the pro?
vision we suggest can only supply.
The instruction of the children under our caro, and
the interest of our Sabbath school system, cannot be too
highly appreciated by you. Tour body will, we hope,
show your love for these little ones of Christ and lambs
of his flock by the practical value of your action in their
behalf. We think lt unnecessary to enlarge ou a point
of such obvious and vital concern to the cbu? ch. Let us
remember that lt is only by taking care of the children
that we can take care of the future prosperity of the |
church.
If we are to judge from the tone of the religious press,
and tho action of many of our Conferences, great con?
cern ls felt in respect to certain changes in our economy.
It is obviously unbecoming in us as Bishops to occupy
any other than an impartial relation to those matters.
But we take this occasion touige upon you the impor?
tance of giving these subjects your eohcr and prayerful
consideration. From our extensive observation of the
state and wants of the Church, we hesitate not to say
that some improvement of our economy may be wisely
undertaken at this time. WeU for us if we can happily
avoid extremes and do neither too little nor too much.
Let us remember that while innovations are not neces?
sarily iinpr jvementa, wisdom may demand tn the de?
partment of eccle^astical expediency new eppli ?tions
and developments of fundamental principles. The effi?
ciency of Methodism finds its first condition in the pre?
valence of deep spiritual life; and alterations in our econ?
omy are valuable as they coincide with th s condition,
calamitous when they ignore it On only one of the
points suggested do we regard lt becoming in our posi?
tion to speak directly, and tint is in respect to the m
creaso of the nunibtr of tho Bishops. For such an In?
crease as will give tho Church a more efficient episcopa?
cy, we think therj 1* an urgent necessity. Thc infirmi?
ties of age press betvily upon some of us and diminish
our ability to answer to tho demands of thc work for
general fpiacopal visitation. The great and increasing
extent of our territory shon'd be considered. V e Bhould
by all mcins have a Bishop, for obvious reasons, resid?
ing on tho Pacific coast And while we do not recom?
mend a Bishop for every State or (.onion nee, woore
fully persuaded tba: tho number of Bishops should be
so increased as to enable them to ho pastors of the peo?
ple as well as chairmen of conferences and pastors of
the preacher?. If wo would carry out the invaluable
plan of our itinerant general superintendency, we must
havo au addition of a number of vigorous, active sud
pious men to your preicut college of BishopB.
And now, dear brethren, in conclusion, allow us af
fec ionattly to remind you of theBolemn responsibility
that reel* upon you as delegates represent.ng the affairs
of our b?lovol Zion. We have only Buggered in out?
line some of the work before yon. It ls your province
to go ful'y and thoroughly into the particular conside?
ration of tho subjects within your jurl-diction, avoid?
ing all partlzau feeling, discharging from our minds all
prejudices that would cloud our judgments, rising from !
all private and selfish Impulses, humid; Invoking that
wisdom that is from above, which ia pure and peaceable, |
and gentle; in honor preferring one another;' in broth?
erly kindness and charity, and with an eye single to the
glory of Ood; let us endeavor to do our duty boreas
Ministers of the Lord Jesus Chtist, praying Ood that
wem?y have gracs to edify the Church, that we may re?
joice that we have not labored in vai l in the Lord.

valescents, and report it as invaluable for sustaining the
vigor of troops on tho march,as a r.medy for scurvy
and all scorbutic affections, and as the only specific for
Eea-sickness. California and Australia lave emphatical?

There is no mystery about the causes of ita success.
It is the only stomachic and alterative in which are com?
