THE EFFORT TO UNITE THR A.M E AND C. uF, CHURCHES—SKETOHES OF THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE OHUECH. ‘The consultation held recently in Baltimore be- tween the bishops of the A‘rican M.E. and the col- ored M.E. churches ts not the first that. has becn held between the tatives of the colored churches with the view of unitiag them. Although the different branches of the church fraterniz> together and send fraternal delegates with expres- sions of gool will to the conterences, heretoiore the efforts to secure'a union have been no more successvul than similar efforts in the white churches. Attempts have been made towarls & consolidation of the African M. EK. and the African M.E. Zion churches several times, but they have alyays been futile. The attempt now being inde t consolidate is between the original seced- ers from tue M.E. church and the last off-shoot. TUE AFRICAN M.2. CHURCH was formed In 1816, having its origin in Philadel- phia. In the early days of Methd®sm in this country white and colored members worshipped in the same congregation—the latter having spe- cial seats. In 1786, some diMeuity arose when the galleries were erected in St. George’s church, Philadelphia, and a few of the colored members seceded and formed an assoctation. Some re- turned to the old church, and in 1794 there were 66 colored members, In this year a blacksmith shop was purchased and a separate place of wor- ship established, Bishop Asbury dedicating it Junge 2th, 1791. Richard Allen was the first pastor belng ordaine! by B shop Asbury in 1799, but the congregation continued under the general supervision of St. George’s church tii 1815, ‘Then it was d-termine! to hold a convention of | colored Metio ilsts, which met April 9, 1816, and the denomination took form. Richard Allen was elected bishop, and was consecrated April 11th by Rey. Absalom’ Jones, of the Protestant Episcopal church) ani four other ministers.’ ‘The Hook of ec!

In this body there are a number of district churches, and, as under the usages, a minister may be continued in one charge for three years, it1s not probable that there will be any changes made. The churches here are Union Bethel, (M street), where Rev. J. W. Stoven- son 's closing his second year; Ebenezer, (Georze- town), Kev. Mr. Cargill; Piszah, (10th end R sts), Rev. J.

The Zion church was formed in 1798, and Up to 1820 were in perfectharmony with tie parent body; butin that year Rev. James M.

At the formal organiza- tion in 1822 there Were 22 ministers ond 1,426 mem- bers, and new they claim about 12,000 churches, 3.500 preachers, including exhorters, and about 800,000 members. THE COLORED M. B. CHURCH Was formed in 1874, under the auspices of the M. E. Church South, the general conference of that chureh in 1870 having recommended the bishops to form the colored people into annul conferences, Their first general con‘erence was held in Decem- ber, 1874, and they claim now about 20 an- nual conferences, some 2.000 preachers, and over 108,000 members, The general conier- ence of this church began Its quadrennial ses- sions in this city to-day. ‘There are also the col- ored conferences, under the eneral conference of the M.

THE SECOND YEAR'S DRIFT—IN THE ICE PACK—THE SHIP GOES DOWN. Another interesting chapter of the story of the Jeannette, gathered from the narrative of Ltent. Danenhower, is included in the New York Herala’s correspondence from Siberia. The part of this narrative printed last week gave the incidents and Impressions of the ship's first year Ice bound. The Present story ends with the destruction of the Ship and the escape of all hands to the fee. At the Outset of the second year the condition of the ves sel was practicaliy the same as it had then been for many months. IN A BED OF FLOATING ICE, “The ship was firmly imbedded,” says Danen- however, “in Ice of about eight fect in thickness; but there were Immense masses shoved under her keel. and the bows were lifted 80 that the keel was tnelined about one degree, the ship at the samo time heeling to starboard two degrees, and so firmly held in this gigantic vice thet’ when the blacksmith struck his anvil in the fireroom one could see the shrouds and stays vibrate, and they were not very taut. ‘The fee was piled up under the main ebains and as high as the plinksheer.” Such was her position ani'such 1t seemed likely to remain, When, as the autumn came on, which was the best riod for traveling over the ice, the captain had determine whether he would ssibliities of another lessly beset his way by sled ant bout to the coast. ‘Nat to ane Siberian turally the apprehension of the com- mon gravity of a second winter In the Arctic night had little moment ta this deliberation, because all thit was assumed in the voyage. “There was, however, this consideration always before him, hat while his ship remuned beset allhe couid hope todo was to discover the Arctic dritt, and there was reason to belleve that the best he could hope for was that she might remain beset, since the fearful pressure and grip of the tee had proba- ly so damaged her thit if once set free she would hrough all these difficulties the c: 3 ‘hip. It was a hero'c et cirenmstances. Danen- hower regards the long night of the second winter s a “THE MOST FEARFUL PART OF THEIR EXPERIENCE.” Mental strain, the oppression of the coustant gloom, the thought that from moment to moment the ship might be crushed by the gigantic forces in operation about her—all this wears upon brain and nerve, and when these failin thelr functions the exhaustion of the human capacity for resls- tance 1s imiuinent. It is not strange to read, therefore, that. “on May 1 Dr. Ambler reported the phy-tcal ‘condition of the crew raptily deteri- orating, and six or seven were placed on whisky and quinine to tone thei up.” But this was already a season of hope. ‘The winter was over, and here succeods in the narrative the eheerin: ? It js evi tent that tue discovery he two fslinds,%o the nelghborhood of which the ship had driited, stirred up the whole com: pany with a pl nt excitement and had a happ effect upon everybody. This part of the story 13 told in extracts from the log, whlch was kept a the period by the captait. himself, THE CLOSING SOENES. De Long's last entry in the log is June 11. What they thought on doard when the breakup of the fee became imminent is told ina few of Danen- hower’s graphic phrases: “We knew that the m- portant moment was coming when the Jeannette would be liberated from this cyclopean vice and that her future would be more hazardous than while in the monster's grip, ior It was impossible to sh a col e would be momentarily Mable to be crushed by the fmpact of the ant: istic floe pieces, which sent timmense masses of [co into the air, and among wiich the Jeannette Would be like a glass toy ship in a railroad colils- fon.” At nizht On June 10, 1881, the Ice parted and let 0) i side of the ship, and she 1@ and floated on’ an even She was found tobe all 1.ght.
