' If Lay Delegation I? adopted 'the General Conference vlll consist of precisely, the same nurober of ministers from the'ditTerent Annual Conferences, h though, there were no lay delegates, and they will be elected in precisely tlie same' "way. In , which they bow are. ; 'But to' their number will be added two . lay delegates from th.e.rne'rnbership; fii the. large Con fer encesp and 'one-' fr6m' the 'smaller. These delegates will meet with the ministers, and will take part fn the various deliberations, but on all occa sions of interest, when a distinct "vote Is called for, they will vote separately from the ministers." No new law can be passed, no alternation of the dis- cipline can be made, except by the vote first, of the majority of ministers; and. secondly, by the vote of the ma jority of lay delegates, thus giving ex- ressiou to ne .voice or tne wnoie ;hufch, both clerical and lay. ! The chpice of these delegates is to ' be . by an Electoral-Conference mcetinff 'at the -time and place' of the Annual Conference previous to the General Conference. It is to be composed of laymen, oue of whom' shall be chosen by each Quarterly Conference. This Is the plan submitted by the General Conference. '. !" " ; ' From this brief statement It will be seen that all arguments in reference to "the Annual Conferences or to : tne influence of laymen therein,' or as to the appointments are 'wholly irrele vant to thenuestion. The only chancre pro)x)scd is in the law-making' power; aiid that; simply Iry way of addition. No layman is totakethc place of any minister, or is iu any way to imerieru withitherjJUis priyilcgiis prlus nre rosratives." !-A plan so simple, which aims raefe- ly to call Into exercise another portion of . the Church and thus add to its strength would seem, in .itself, litUe likely to call forth opposition. - - : - Yet f e cannot close our eyes to the ;vct that cood and wise men honestly,' ... 11.. . I i. seriously, -ami earnesiiy oujwv tv iu uitrtKlQction of tlus lay element into the, law-making department of our ChurcJu Nor am I surprised that this is the 'ease, when I consider that His ruriit we sliouiu omecc loany.cuauge unless., ft good reason for that change can be shown ; and I am free to admit that upon, the supporters or lay- ueie- atiou rests the buruen ol snowing .a. wiiy tnis measure snouiu ue intro duced. Until that is shown we have no right to claim the favor or the votes of the Church. A conservative feeling is rhjht and proper in its place; but it mav err in declinina: to examine the evidence brought in favor of any plan, and of.bhmiJy rejecting ail proposi tions for change, when these changes mav be an improvement. The grand proposition which we present is tuas it is proper mat, inu whole Church whould participate in making rules and regulations for its own government. ' We express only the common judgment of mankind when we say that every association or community has a right to form its own .rules ana to manage ns ywu affairs, and that no one class in the association has a right to rule the oth: ers without the consent of the body. This, is involved in the Ideas of indi viduality and of equal rights, and this lies at the foundation oi an iree governments. . - ... The cnurcn is an association oi chris tain people,-and as such why have not its members the same privi leges as other associations? Possibly it is said that the Church differs from other institutions. In that it is divine ly established. But so far as regards the act of their being, are not civil governments also of God ? 'The pow ers that be are ordaineu of uotl," and yet the people have a right to a voice as to form and persons. But it is said there is a little legislation in the Church: that Christ, the great head of the Church, has taught us the doc trines, and has established the ordi nances. . This Ave fully admit. The great outlines are so clearly revealed that neither member nor minister can change or modify. All we allege is that what Christ has not clearly es tablished, but has left the Church free to regulate pertains-equally to the whole Church, and not to any pecu liar class. . But it is said, "The minis try is called of God to its sacred office ana neuce xias u ugut iu govern mis Church." I assert and most strenu lously maintain the doctrine of a di vine call to the ministry ; but I deny that the call to. the ministry includes the right to enact the laws. . Christ commissioned his Aiostels to preach to teach. But the disciplines of the Church he committed . to the Church itself. This is where a brother has differed, '. (Mathew XVIII: 17vf) "If he. shall neglect to hear them tell it unto the' Church,' aiid if he neglect to hear, the Church kthim be unto thee as a heathen man and a publi can." Assuredly if the Church is to hear,' to decide and to condemn, 'It must have the right to arrange the mode of Its procedure, and, in other words, to make its own regulations. The, Apostle alludes to the various offices in the Church of this distinc tion; when he says, "God hath 'set some in' the Church, first apostles; secondly prophepts; thirdly teachers; after that miracles," then girts of heal ings, helps, governments," diversities of tongues." Christ is the head, the Church Is Ills body." Of the members of the Church, it is said, "Ye are the body of Christ, and members in par ticular." One may be humble as the foot, another versatile as the hand, another clear as the eye Yet "the eye cannot say to the hand I have no need of thee ; nor again, the head to the feet, I have no need of you." The result of this union of all the members, is beautifully portrayed by the Apos tle, when he says ;"the, whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh in crease of the body unto the edifying of itselfinlQV.'V!;.; , . Before . proceeding, to show more sieei tie reasou for -the fcliangeJLaiay notice some objections which its op opponents' offer to Its introduction. First,' by pome .the measure is. said ta be "revolutionary." I scarcely know what is meant by those who em ploy this phrase. A revolutionary measure is one which seeks to over throw an establish order of things in an unlawful way, whether it be by force or fraud.

' " J' " Conference, wlnclfhas poinfed out tne nay. in. winch. the, change can be mdde legally VJ and has' invited '.a-consideration of-apldn to effect it. . Ho far thn,' trota itte being revoldtlonary, it is strictly legal,? and is to be brought about in harmony with; the cons til u tjon;of the Church, r j-r-t,? . - ecQndlyvlfyj others it ia termed "fadical."? ,Th;presenJ dysteul does not (jUect the appointment of the lead ers; or of thqiiwjds,.or;of ,tho trusi tees,p nor does it in, any way change a single ollieial act inanywuy coanec ted with -nuy.lo.cal churchy r Jt simply add to. the iiuaxterly Conference the right of election oncelin Xbur"yeara,a representative to. the.

Conference im Eng land, wluch meets annually, is usual ly composed of about lx hundred or nearly twice as many as our General Conference would havev- . , Again ;it . lias been objected to by some .that it .will add ta the etpenses of the church that these additional delegates will be a burden to the peo ple.i.If a measure be of Spiritual ben efit ajftd would add to " the influence and strength of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, it seems to me the question of money should be subordi nated to moral and spiritual interests. Yet it may not be amiss, to inquire how far it would add to the expenses. Let us suppose, for instance, that the Pittsburg Conference lias two dele gates.; - Tiro most distant points at which tho-General Conference has heretofore set have been Chicago ami Boston'..: -The railroad fare to Chicago is, I think, fourteen dollars; to Bos ton, about twenty. .'' Owing to the courtesy of railroad companies' 'this fare is often reduced. But let us give-tfMroeTal margin, and KUpprfiU that tile fare going to and're turning -from, Conference should be fifty dollars for each delegation. We should then have one hundred dollars as the traveling expenses. But sup pose the additional number of dele gates would embarrass the provision tor the General Conference, and that these delegates must lx? placed at boarding houses. Let us suppose the General Conference to last for about four weeks, the boarding beiug, say twelve dollars per week, we should then have for the two delegates an ad ditional hundred dollars, making two hundred in all for the laymen of the Conference, As I turn to the minutes I find that the Pittsburgh Conference numbers nearly forty thousand members- One cent a piece. would make four huudred dollars, or ouo hah! cent each .would furnish two hundred, ithe amount necessary. In other words, the great expense of this system would consist in one half cent apiece once In four years. How much weight should be attached to this half cent argument I leave for you Itutetexmine, Tliat it has an influence is proved by" the fact that it is lised by your Doctors of Divinity In New -York and elsewhere, and they doubtless feel its force. ' ;':" . ;' .' , - , ' , Again it Is said our system .has worked, well hitherto, and is it'. not best to "let well enough alone." I answer, , our system, if by that be meant the precise mode in which the Church commenced, has never , yet been let alone. We have been adding, from time to time, almost every quad rennial period since the Church com menced its career. YYe began without a college, without academies, without a r missionary society, . without . a Preacher's Aid Society, without Sun day schools, without tracts, 'M without a Book Concern, w without a Church Extension Society, without Theologi cal Seminaries but, from time to time as the Church expanded, each one of these has been added to. our Church machinery; , so ; that from the . com mencement .of the, Church onward, we have beeii adding elements of pow er tothoso previously possessed; If the present measure be adopted it will be simply following in the line of prece dent, adding another element ot pow er; not destroying or impairing those we have, but eLilarging, for more ex tensive usefulness the operations of the Church.-; ' : ' . But if we takc'tiie'staicmcnt sfrict vlct well, enough alone;" ' had this been our policy, the Church nev er would have grown. ' We' should have none of these appliances now found of such vast benefit. We were inercasiug rapidly, when it was pro posed to establish colleges. ' Many said "Let well enough alouc," colleges might spoil us." So others objected to the Missionary Society, and others to Theological Schools. Many of you re member when it "was esteemed rank hearsy 'tb' allow a musical instrument in the. church. Thirty-five years ago the laying down of a carpet in Liberty Street Chureh, In this city the first in. any of our churches in this region came very hear driving away from my.' care some half a- dozen families, who said "Let well enough alone; "was not the Church prospering with out a carpet?" : Few of U3 are aware of how constantly changes are occur ring in our economy; Not for twenty "I years, if I am rightly in formca,.after, the organization of the Church; w-;re the Presiding Elders ever caik.I. t gether in council by the Bhhon -. i Le r- acter in Annual Uonkrences Is entire ly different from what it was twi-nty years ago.

Let us examine this subject for a few moments, , as may, doubtless, - have been affected .by, its : plausible .state ment, and, first, as. to, ungodly, men. Such. may make their way into , the Church. . .There was nne such among the twelve disciples. . There may be such found even among the most, ex allcd ministry." Butthese are sad and mournful . exceptions .So with, the laity 'of the, .Church." There may be unholy;' men' .who 'auiuirestanding amOng the laity, but wchope .these are. comparatively, ew and Jar'. be tween. ."; I f such be the general .char atet'of'the laity, alas,! for. the work which 'mjhisters-Jjave leen doing n the last Century' Of how. little? have we to be proud if such is the character of ' the membership which we have gathered together. But to suppose that the ungodly, the factious or the ambitious" would be voluntarily cho sen by the Church to represent them is to suppose either great ignorance on the part of . the Church, or gros3 carelessness or utter recklessness as to its interest. . But are these the char acferistics of our membership? If a duty devolves upon them to select one who 'shall be their standard bearer and support their honor, will they se lect one in whose religious character they have no confidence, or one who would dishonor the cause of God? It is sometimes said the churches which' have adopted this principle have not succeeded Be it so. It re mains to be proved that their want of of success arises from thi3 fact, and not from other causes. The Methodist Protestant Church and the Wesleyan Methodist Church, not only had lay delegatations; but they abolished the presiding eldership and the Episcopa cy. May not their comparative want of. success have t arisen . from . these causes. , But these lay delegate bodies of Methodism arc ty no means unim portant to-day. Adding together the Church South, the Methodist Protes tants the. Wesleyan Methodists, the African Zoin, and the African Metho dist Episcopal Church, wo have a net amount of about one million members, approaching ; j very closely to the amount of membership now in what may be termed the Mother Church. And then we are to consider that, within it, a3 shown by the last vote upon lay delegation, a little over one third of all the votes cast were, in fa vor of lay delegation. Without claim ing any increase since that period, we may simply say that at least one-third of the oM.church is in favor of lay delegation, 'and all the other branches have adopted it, so that the friends of lay delegation In the lethodist bodies, taken its a whole are vastly in the ma jority. "And yet this growth of senti ment has been 'in Opposition to all preconceived opinions. How shall this be accounted for if there be not something in this change which Com mands, almost irresistably, the con sent of the public mind? And is it wise to-resist this tendency when we may; by so slight an addition to oar system, bring ourselves' in full harmo ny with it without materially -changing or modifying our system ? ' -Thirdly, thia addition would mate the membership of the Church feel an ' increased interest in the movements of the Church, because additional re sponsibility would be laid upon them. There: is a great influence in the sira- Ele words, "We did it" If the action e glorious we love to.thiuk we were part and parcel of the actors. . If it be disasterous, it tends to prevent mur muriugs and discontent. ..If where measures are adopted, they are adopt ed by general consent and agreement, are. they not more. vigorously carried forward than if they are" adopted sim ply by a particular ixrt of the church? And who has-not noticed indifferent sections' of our church, au, exhibition of the feeling thatthe churclr belongs, in a great measure, to the ministers, and they are held responsible for all the difficulties, for all the legislation, and, if any mistakes be made, for all the mistakes. In some sections, we have rseen members leaving the church, aa if to spite the minister, as though the ministers were the church, and not the laity as well. Lastly the submission of 'this ques tion to the vote of the laity seems to me will necessiate the adoption r of some system or lay representation. Whyhasthisqucstionbeen submitted, but. because the voice of, the. Jay men should be.heard ? And why 'iu this, question more than in other cjiangcs? la it .said because' this is of 'greatest importance ? Then if the laymen are competent to decide the gravest ques tions why not listen to them all? . Is it because, they are interested in this question? In what measure that ef fects the Cliureli are they not interes ted ? And if it.is wise and proper to consult Jliem once, why not again?

In 1800 they said, "We are in favor of lay representation whenever tho Church shall desire it." In 1804 they repeat ed the same declaration. In 1863 they repeated the same sentiment, and, taking a step in advance, pre pared a plan by which that represen tation may be obtained, and to which they ask your Godly consideration. What more can the ministry do than this? After full consideration, three times in twelve years, they havo de clared, their willingness to accext of you ? .What more, I repeat, can they do than simply to open the way? And it is now for you to say whether you will accept the proffered resjMjnsi bility, and whether you will become co-workers with them in the future exaltation of our beloved Methodism. And what tiuiecaii bemore propiti ous than the commencement of the second century of Methodism. -It3 first contennial services .have .been held,' ami song and praise have re sounded" throughout the land." The first General Conference- succeeding that ceatennary in which the people showed their love of and devotion to the Church, have prepared this plan and sent it down to you. It is yours now with glad .hearts and strong arms to join with . the . ministry in building up all the Interests of our be loved Methodism: -So far from "being factious, this movement has been intensely loyal. Its discussion has been geueraily calm and dignified. .Its friends have stood shoulder to shoulder around the en terprise of the church. ' Without claiming for them any superiority, it may be said they have been as true as any to their ministers, as liberal in their - support, as faithful In their friendship. Their voices had been herd iu the class room and at the al ter of prayer,; and they . have laliored and toiled for the prosperity of Zoin. If, then, It be neither revolutionary nor radical, if it' impaired ho rights of the ministry and weakens no depart-, mentof the Church,, but if, on the contrary, it gives Increased interest to the laity, will bring out, to a greater extent the resources of the Church, if tt shall guard against legislation and lend to render changes in our econo my more. difficult, thereby perpetua ting our system to the latest generav tlons,' why should it not-meet the hearty concurrence of all the laity of the Church? , . .; u . ' When I resided, some years since, near Chicago, ' I 'was surprised to no tice their plan of raising up or eleva-! ting the houses. Aiponjlhe principle streets. .
