“ especial ly those thrifty ones who have political ns on the right side and believe they fair price in the world—if they bid for govern- ment work, bid at a paying price, not counting ‘upon any subsequent begging petitions to ‘Congress, and they do not get the contracts, ‘because they are underbid by men who count pon all this bad legislative machinery and are willing to resort to all the dodges. We speak of the general principle of this system. It is thoroughly and abominably bad, and Con- gress should shut down upon it at once. Num- berless contractors make 2 great deal more on their bargains with government than they ‘ought to, and it is not known that any of them fhave refunded any portion of their enormous gains. No one expects it; neither should any one expect that government should restore ‘the balance when it is the other way. What is the use of a contract at all if its operation is not binding? Let the government begin at once a better system in this matter, and con- ‘tracts will fall into the hands of men who will not pray to be relieved.

The yesr 1966 marks an important epoch in the history of the Methedist Church in America; for it looks back upon the firs: century of its existence in this country— century of existence and labor, during which time the congregation of five persons, whom Philip Embury, its founder, gathered in his own house in New York, in 1766, has grown to an aggregate numbered by han- dreds of thousands, scattered over the whole of North America; ani the first conference of 1773, with its ten preachers, has multiplied to sixty conferences, with 6,821 itineant and 8,205 “local preachers.’’ It is not wonderful, then, with these facts to stimulate memory, that in this, its centennial year, s conference of the Methodist Church, in session in hat town where for nearly nmety years the bones of him who set up its foundation stone in the New World have mouldered in obscurity, shoald carefully gar- ner up these relics of the memorable dead and with fit- ting ceremonies entomb them in an urn better calcu- lated to impress the future with the memory and worth of the man. Among Methodists in America the name of Philip Embury ts held in scarcely less esteom than that of the “great expounder’’ of the Methodist creed. It was directed some time ago that, during the present session of the Troy Methodist Episcopal Conference, tho remains of Embury should be transferred from the obscure location where they have lain and deposited in the new Woodland Cemetery recently opened in the town of Cambridge, Washington county. Last Fri- day afternoon witnessed this ceremony, and:two hun- dred ministers now in attendance at the conference, with a very large number of villagers, followed to a new grave the relics of their great pioneer, and with solemn rites recommitted them to motherearth. As Embury is one whose history is unfamiliar even to his own follow. ers, a sketch of his life may not be inopportune in con- nection with a record of his third obsequies—his body having bsen once before removed after its first burial. PHILIP EMBURY was born in Limerick county, Ireland, September 21, 1728, among the German Irishmen, or Palatines, as the people were called who then inhabited that country, they having been driven from Palatinate on the Rhine by the troops of Louis XIV. Embury first heard Wesley preach in 1752, and becoming a convert of the Methodist faith was licensed soon after as @ “‘local preacher.” He al- ready ape ape a fair education, having studied under both English and German teachers, though previous to his conversion he had followed the a ater.
