WESLEYAN METHODIST GENER Al,
CONFERENCE.

The eighty-iirst Conference Of the Wcs-
leyan Mcthodsts commenced at Leeds on
the 28th Of July, and was concluded on the
loth OF August. Upwards of three hundred
and sixty preachers were present. The Rev.
Robert Newton was chosen President, and
the Rev. Jabez Bunting, Secretary. An i'm
mcnsc number OF strangers assembled from
all parts OF the country, and the interest cx-
cited by the religious services was more in
tense than at any former period. On the
Sabbath the chapels were crowded to excess,
and SO great was the assemblage that sever
al OF the clergymen had to preach in the omen
air: the preaching at FIVE o'clock in the
morning was numerously attended, and even
at that carly hour, it became necessary q

M.tHOMMED ALI.

The character of Mahommcd Ali, the
present Pacha Of Egypt, comprchends quail
tics as astonishing as those of Napoleon Bu-
onaparte. He is a perfect despot, but he
turns all this tremendous agency to the inn
lately obstructcd the mouth of the Nile near
Rosetta, and rendered the navigation to Al
cxantlria impracticablc in boistcrous seasons,
claimed the attention of the Pacha, and he
projected 4 canal from Fourah to Alexandria.
The labourers of Lower Egypt were SUM
monctl, TO each of whom Il particular por-
tion Of labour was allotted. The length Of
this canal is forty eight miles; the breadth
is nnctv-thc depth from fifteen to eigh-
teen feet Two hundred and fifty thou
sand men were marched down under
their respective leaders, to be employed in
the excavation of this work--it was COM
p,et"d in six weeks, and they were paid OH
the spot, and marched back to their homes.
--lhc Pacha next turned his attention to
the growth of cotton plant. He scwcd the
seed Of the brazilian cotton, and in 1922 a
crop was picked amounting to 25, 600 bags Of
two hundred weight each Of these $50 were
shipped for Ensland, and sold at from eleven
to othlrtecn pence per pound. The cotton
IS said to be equal to that of the United
States, neither subjected to the frosts OF
hlights. But there is one thing to be taken
into the scale on our side of the question:
bale OF cotton from an infected district, COM
munlcates the plague, which in a population
50 dcnce as tnat Of England, will be rathc,

The promised visit of La Fayette to Vir-
ginia, the State which, in 1871, he so gal
lantly protected from the ravages of the Bril-
tish and which he SO cminently contributed to
crown with glory by the capture of her in
yader, Cornwallis, with his whole army at
York Town on the 18th of October of that
wear, is one of the most interesting and plea
sing circumstances that fancy can picture or
gratitude contemplate. The approaching
commemoraton at York Town, will present
a spectacle more affecting and sublime than
the page of our history has yet recorded. 1t
will probably be attended by more numer-
our congregation of grateful citizens and adj
miring strangers, than ever assembled on
any one point of Nirginla's soil, ans. all who
NAV be present, will regard it through life,
as the noblest celebration they ever witness
ed, the grandcst procession they ever joined,
and the most interesting scene they ever be-
held.
Persuaded that every individual in Nir-
rinia will feel an Interest i'll it, and that
every family in the State may wish to possess
/ a faifhfui narrative of the commemoratlon
and all the CircumStan connected with 1t,
the Subscriber proposes to collect, digest and
record a minute and exact detail OF the
whole series of events to which La Fayctte's
uisit may give birth.
! The detail will commence with the "Re-
solutions of the volunteer companies of Nor
folk and Richmond" on which the Governor
Of Nirginia's invitation to La Fayette, to
meet at Yorktown on the 10th OF October
was founded and to which will be prctixed, a
brief and interesting memoir of the life and
fortunes of the illustrious individual, whom
our country "delights to honour as the Ma
tional Guest" and whom grateful Virginia
in particular, halls as her guardian and pro-
tector i'll the most trying hour OF her revoin-
tionary suff'erings.
