LIMITED TO ONE WIFE. 

THE A.M.E. Church Shakes Up the Ministers for Their Several Sins. 

The Virginia conference of the African M.E. church, which has been in session at Wytherville for some days, and those ministers who have not conducted themselves properly are trembling. Resolutions were passed condemning ministers for getting divorces from their wives. Bishop Handy declared that no man in the connection in the district would receive and appointment who had more than one wife. They also condemned the use of whiskey and several men who were found guilty of using intoxicating drink were left without appointment. Rev. Jas. Minter was expelled from the connection for having two wives. The ruling bishop, Handy, regards this as a progressive step for the elevation of the negro race.
