Sutherland presented the follow- £ paper, which wes adopted unanimously Whereas, In the agitations and excitement through which the pation has recently passed, some of the churches have been either rent in pieces, or else shaken to the centre, and ail of them subjected to core trial, and whereas, a time of rest having now come which affords all the ecclesiastical organizations of the land a favorable opportunity of calmly surveyu their past career, both before and during the civil strife, and in the light of that retrospect to intelligently indicate future action; and whereas, there have been within our pale oc- casional utterances suggesting, im certain con- lingeneies, the expediency of merging the Meth. odist Protestant Church im some other ecclesi- astical body; and whereas, originating with these suggestions, there are conjecture na rnmors afloat which are calcniated vo render our position and purposes doubtiul or ambig- nous with the community, and therepy to binder our progress: therefore, 1. Be it resolved by the Marglan4 Annual Con- Serence of Ministers and Lay Delegates of the Meth« odist Protestant Church, im conference assembled, That we hereby sincerely express our profound gratitude to God, that, throughout the past, notwithstanding the pressure upon us, in cox mon with that upon other churches, our m' istry have been enabled to keep on their y in their devotedness to the one great and exciu- sive work which the Lord Jesus Christ has committed to his ambassadors—that of recon- ciling men to God. 2 That we hereby also render tribute of un- feigned thanksgiving for the manifest tekens of His approbation upon the ine of duty which we have thus ppg A and undevi- atingly pursued; and that. in humble depea- dence upon His continued support, it is our purpose, whatever may come, to go forward in the same path and to abide by the same calling. 3. That our past experience fully establishes in our minds both the piety and we wisdom of our fathers in laying down the broad distinc- tive principles of our Constitution and Disci- pline, as based upon Kevelation and human Tights, and as eminently adapted to promote the happiness and usefulness of all Cbristian people 4. That, with these convictions deep in our hearts, we can, im candor, avow 2s oar pur- pose nothing short of continuing to hold tast And maintaim intact the Doctrines, the Govern. ment, a the Name of the Methodist Protestant Church.
