B. Church as a preacher on trial, at its session in New Brunswick, April, 1843, but where he was stationed does not appear in the minute. In 1S44 he travelled the fiwedesboro Circuit. At the Conference held In Mount Holly in 1845, he was ad mitted it to lull connection, and stationed at Salem, New Jersev, He -was returned to the same appointment 1846.

"Official Statement of . the Number of Public Prostitute, Houses of Protltu tlon, Assignation, Ktc, la New York and Brooklyn Important Facts and Statistics. The statistical report of the Police Commis sioneis upon the extent ot public prostitution in this city and Brooklyn, made in "compliance with the resolution oflered by Air. Jacobs in the Asi-embly a lew weeks ago, and which is to ac company the medical report of the Sanitary Committee upon the same sublecr, has not as yet, as has been erroneously slated in certain morning papers, been scdI to Albany, lor the simple reason that it hns not yet reached that state of completion which the Commissioner desire it should attain. Sometime aext week, in all probability, it will be completed and for warded to the Legislature. The official figures of the number of prosti tutes, houses of assignation, etc., obtained for this report by the police, and compiled by Superintendent Kennedv, on the 24th ot January last, compared with the reports made on Janu ary 24, in 1864 and 1866, ore as follows: IS'H. .. M9 .. 112 .. 72 ..212J ISM. 1121 9:1 SH 747 1807. i9 KO :t;i 2.174 i6 Houses of prostitution J loupes ot uhsIkiihiIoii Saloon Willi wittier Kirls Number of public prostituted Number ol waiter girls in saloons. It will be seen at a glance, by the above tables, that the word "public" is prefixed to the word "prostitute,'-' and this advisedly; for it is a noto rious fact, say the Commissioners, that there id a very large clans of women in this city who, though not known as prostitutes, or as rtsidents ot houses ot ill-tame, are as deserving as tho most of public women of tho term so aptly appnea by the trecento all females or loose character namely, that of demi-motulcs. Ot' this class young girls or every grade or society from the kid-gloved belle to the poor factory girl in the filthiest purlieu of the town aud even married women, who nave their unknown places ot appointment, or who patronize ".select" houses of assignment, or who, to be more secret in their acts, havo stealthy meetings at hotels, and other places of public resort, form the greater portion, while kept mistresses make up the balance. Were all such persons as well as Ihe "pretty waiter girls," and girls who attend in concert ssloons, who are not included in the number of public prostitutes, but who, it is well known, are, as a rule, women of lost character set down under the general heading, the grand total would no uoubt be swelled to twice its ollicial number. By the exclusivencss observed by these persons, the public are unable to give certain data as to their actual number, but the fact remains the same, nevertheless, that almost ouce azain as much crime of prostitution is committed pri vately, so to speak, as there is publicly in the city. From this state of things the Commis sioners leave tho Legislature to draw its own conclusions. There were 2100 public prostitutes in this city in 1861, and but 1650 iu ls63. This diminution in the hitter year from the numbers inhabiting the city in theformer is attributed to the fact that large numbers of women lollowed the army, or, rather, flocked to those cities nearest its encampments during the war, many of ivbom, while absent, sickened aud died. By parity of reasoning, the increase from 1864 to 1HG6 was one of the natural consequencea of the return ot tho troops to this city, where not only those Erosntutes who left this city with the soldiers, ut hundreds who had joined the frontiers of the army encampments fromJotheicities, gravi tated to tb.isV.fity as the place that held out to them the greatest prospect of "trallic." Taking into consideration the ninety-four women lost on the Evening Star some time ago, and aiany others wno were induced to go South by procurateurs, the decrease from the number reported in 1866, as noticeable in 1867, is easily accounted for. Brooklyn, it is otliciully stated, contains but six public houses of prostitution, three known houses of assignation, and only fourteen resi dent public prostitutes. This state of things is not attributed to any superior virtue of Brook lyn over this citv, but to the fact that New York offers more inducements to the general welfare so to speak of the fallen women than that place, owing to its proximity to the metro polis, can possibly ofl'er.
