Erilsion Of PrencAer.-.Msmerisn
and Selection. The Methodist Episcopal
Conference, now in session in New Or
leans, says the Picayune, has expelled the
Rev. H. H. Shropshire, who last year
travelled the St. Helena Circuit, from the
ministry. He was charged with the flag
rant offence Of having attempted the seduc-
uon Of q young lady upon whom he was
Practising some Mesmeric experiments
IN July last. He fully confessed his
8mit, and did not attempt to justify his
conduct. The venerable Bishop Soule,
President Of the Conference, strongly
Eeprehended the practice Of Mesmerism,
and adnonished his hearers to avoid it as
one that was disgraceful, degrading, and
fuinous to those that meddled with it.
