This body adjourned on Tuesday last, after a
session of nearly six days. During the sitting
of the Conference there was number OF VlSl-
tors besides Ministers in our village, and we had
Preaching regularly three times day. On
Saturday night the Annual Meeting of the Mis-
sonary Society attached to the South Cerolina
Conference was held, during which several ad-
dresses were made and collection taken up
the amount received was about 500. On the
Sabbath we have rarely seen church more
crowded and people more anxious to hear, al
thougo service was performed in the Presoyter-
ian church during the day. Bishop WAUGH
delivered serious and affecting discourse to his
brethren of the Ministry. After the Sermon II
Ministers were admitted to the Holy order Of
Deacons In the afternoon DR.. Capers preach
ed, after which II Ministers were admitted to
the Holy order of Elders. At night the Rev.
Mr.. James travelling agent of the American
Bible Society oficiated. His discourse was
truly eloquent and flowed from him in thoughts
that speak and words that burn. On Monday
night meeting of the Bible Society attached to
this Conference was held at which we under
stand that about 500 were raised to assist in
distributing the Bible to the destitute portions
of the earth. We would here mention, that Oh
Tuesday before the close of the conference

Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons, for the
