» i * aeher is &mi & ** ur pounds per S ^ Pter , together irifti beard aad lodgw For the mafiiteaaaee of himself aS his family , a Married preacher is allowed fourteen sikillings per wefck , and one shilling per w £ ek for each child under the age of eight years . He
is prohibited tram parrying on any business , or from seKBng any gopds or medicines- * £ however , his wife be disposed to participate in the duties of the ministry , sfee is allowed to act as a travelling preacher , a » d is paid two pounds per quarter for her services . This must be the minimum price of ministerial services . But wfey is the
female preacher stinted ! to half the allowance made to those of the othes sex ? We suspect tfeftt the laxfies in this communitj , ftou ^ i permitted to preach , are not yefc allowed tjo legislate . ...
The love of minfctq regulation is exemplified in these Minutes by some whimsical questions , such as " What shall be done ra case of a travelling preachers maiTying ? " " WBiit shafl the travelling preachers do in case of sickness ? " * In what dress shall the
travelling preachers appear in public ?" Tie answer to this deserves insertion : " In a plain ope $ the men to wear single-breasted eoits , single-breaste 4 waistcoats , and their hair in its natural form 5 and not to fee allowed to wear pantaloons , trowser ^ nor white h&fs $
and that our female preachers be patterns of plainness ip all their dress . " The document before us does not furnish any account of the present state of this Society as to numbers . It appears that the circuits are four ;
of which the head quarters are Tunstyll , Notting ^ a ni . Loughborough and Hull .

It is impQssible for the contemplative miod tp reflect pn the ^ e thmgs without solicitude . With every dispo sition to allow a full measure of indulgence towards persons whom we b ^ lieve to be in general smeerely desirous
of doing goody we are constrained to believe that their proceedings are , at best , of equivocal tendency . Some are roused from indifference , and worke 4 up to a state ; of fanaticism : others are
disgusted by these frantic excesses , and , confounding them with religion itself , are confirmed in the apathy of a worldly spirit . What are we to think of the boasted civilization of the Imd
in which such things exist ; in which multitudes are so deluded as to sup pose that they worship acceptably the God who is not the author of confu
sion , but pf peace , t > y indulging all the wilcbiess of unrestrained passion , and by converting th $ holy place , where att things should be 4 one decently and in order , into a scene of t ^ e m ost disgraceful tumult and riot ? W .
