The Maryland Conference of the Methodist T.
Church, assembled at our neighboring town,
Harrers Ferry, on Wednesday last. aud will most
likely adjourn on to-day. About so members
have been present, an equal proportion Of which
are Iaymen, the government of this branch oithe
Methodist family being one that admits the
churches to be represented in their ecclesiastical
councils by delegates chosen from among their
Iaymen. Quite a large number ofsirangers have
also been attracted to witness the interesting de-
alterations of the Conference. Every mark OF
respect and hospitality has been extended towards
the members of :he Conference, and others in at
tendance, and we learn its MEETINGS throughout
have resulted in great good to the Church, and
of benefit to the nearer. The Rev. WM Col
L1ER, President, has presided, and has again been
reelected TO that Office. The Conference embra-
ces many Divinc< of undoubted Pie;y and great
eminence in the christian church. We are SO
crowded for room in the present issue, that We
are unsble TO give record of its proceedings
thus far. On Sabbath. all the Churches of the
town were supplied by the ministers Of the
Conference, and large and attentive auditories
manifested by their GREATNESS attention, the emf
nent qualifications OF these men of God, TO set
forth the doctrines OF the Bio!e SO to prove a
SAVIOUR unto salvation.

The Convention has been engaged during the
whole week, in the discussion as to the Basis
question MIR. Byrd of Frederick, on Monday,
is said to have made very strong speech in be-
half OF the White Basis. On Tuesday, Mr.
SouthalI of Abemarle replied to Mr.. Byrd. and
spoke in favor of the Mixed Basis. The vote on
this question will be hardly taken for several
weeks yet, as many prominent members desire
to give their views. The Convention is now

thin, and an indisposition is manifested on the
part ofmealbers, 70 say their say to empty seats.

sPEECu OF MR. LUCAs.

To the exclusion Of our usual variety, we give
in to DAYS paper entire, the speech recently de
Iivercd in the Virginia State Convention by the
Hon. WM. Lucas, of Jefferson. We hope IFS
length may deter no one of our readers IRON
careful perusal, Of the able and eloquent defence
which ia therein set forth, in behalf of the great
West, and its cherished principle of free repre-
scngation according TO free population. Mr. Luz
cas- has very clearly demonstrated, as we humbly
conceive, the identity of interest Of the Valley
with the East, as to at least one species of pro-
perty. no less than its fixed and unalterable de-
termination to stand by the West, in vindication
of her lust rirhts.

TuE SPRING NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

AS things stand nolC, but how long they will
remain so we are altogether unable to say, the
Spring Elections are oil postponed until the 4th
Thursday in October. The Senate on Thursday
reversed its previous decision, and altered the
bill of the House so as to postpone 10th the Con-
prcssional and State Elections until the 4th
Thursday in October. The House also concur
rel in the Bill as reported and amended by The
Senate, as we learn by the following letter from
DR.. ALLEN c. HAMMOND, the Delegate from
Berkeley, under date of Thursday night:
This evening the bill, as returned from the Sc
nate, posiponirg the Election until tile 4h Thurs
dav in October next, passed our House by vote
Of &C ayes, to 38 nays, and Is now the law OF me
State The bill provides that should the Con
veution rise and submit constitution by the 2Oth
of June, the Election for and against the coustI-
tuition shall take place on the 18th Thursday IN
August; and in case the Convention sets alter
the both of June, then, the constitution Is 10 be
voted upon at the general election in October
next, and the Legislature, in this case, will be
elected under the old Constitution, the meeting
of which is not to take place until the I'd MONDAY
in January. In hasIe, yours, a. Z. IL.
The suggestion made in our last paper, (under
the impression that the Congressional election at
least would be held in the month of APrilO and
tnat the Convention to nominate candidate for
Congress from this District sElouid assemble at
Winchester. on Thursday, Sd of April, has been
concnrrcd in by the Winchester Virginian and
Martin<burg Republican, and the Democrats
generally OF the District so far we are able to
learn. The Delegates from all the counties in
the District, save Hampshire and Morgan, have
now been appointed, and VIC therefore think it
would be both convenience and policy, (whether
the election be postponed Oh not) 10 mold our
Convention at the time and place above speCi-
fled Judging the future by the past, until the
Legislature adiourns, it will be impossible to de-
eide with certainty what is, o. what may be, lis
action in regard to the ensuing elections. Near
ly every Congressional District in the State have
already their candidates in The field, and we con
ceive that in the present uncertain condition OF
things, it would be the part Of prudence and
sound discretion to be ready for any emergency.
We propose, therefore, that the understanding
now existing throughout he District that the Com
vention shall be holden in Winchester, on the Sd
of April, may not be interfered with, and hope
that it may meet the approval of our brethren
of the Democratic press, as we have reason TO
believe it is the wish of the District generally,
