Va., A few weeks ago thi: ugh bie thrown into con siderable exc rapidly spread Kibbe, pastor of the M place, had gone to the Centennial Exhibition with Miss Mary Wise, a young lady. sixteen rs ofage, and a member of his congrega- tion. The reverend gentleman has been here for about three years, and has a wife and three children. About twelve months ago it s noticed that he was on very familiar rms with Miss Wise, paying her marked attention at various festivals held in the church, and often walking with her through the streets. This conduct at last roused the indignation of several of his parishioners, and gf omg Of itto the trustees of the chureh, om he was reprimanded, ant capenlned ¢ to act in a more clerieal manner, This advice, however, was unheeded by him and the trustees, although feeling that ag ogres of the church ought to be exercised in his case, were ayerse to bringing th matter before the public, preferring rather to let him depart in peace when the term of his pastorate expired. On the evening of the 7th ot November the lady in question and her brother he leaving here for Philadel- phia. The pastor wassecn in the sittingroom ofthe Grafton Hotel in ee. with Miss Wise. it was supposed he was biddin: her goodbye. Bat when she and her broth left by the cars he accompanied them, and sent a noteto his wife. statin: that he had been unexpectedly called to Wi ton. D.C. it now appears that be! fore the party left Grat- ton, Miss Wise arranged with her ministerial admirer that when she arrived im Philadel- phia she would steal away from her brother aod accompany him wherever he wished. But after gesting. there she refused to fulfil her promise. Kibbe was so determined in the matter that he acquainted her by er with her faithlessness, and asked hith to intereede with her on his behalf, 2 modest request which the young man refused. He then appeared to be seized with a fit of remorse. and sitting down on «the ragged edge,” wrote a letter to the trustees of the church, in whieh he stated that he was a ruined man, and would not again return to the scene of his pastoral labors and amatory practices. The Presiding Elder ot the district was notified, and a council, consisting of himself and five ministers, was held last week at which the foregoing facts were adduced, and the reverend gentleman was found guill of the charges preferred against him. ‘uel aah” is ex, for his wife and A BREACH OF PromIsE Surr.—At Tren- ton, N.
