South Carolina Conference.
The session of this body closed at Newberry
on the 10Th ut. Bishop Paine was compelled
to leave on Monday, and Dr. Wightman presi-
ded during the remainder of the session. A
large accession to the membership of the Church,
white and colored, was reported. The mission
any collections amounted to tecentyjour Mous-
and dollars, of which sum seventeen thousand
arc appropriated for the ensuing year, 20 mis-
sions within the bounds Of the conference, rrin-
cipally to the blacks on the Low-country planta-
tions. Twenty-eight Ministers ofthc Conference
are employed in missionary services among the
plantation negroes-a gratifying fact, showing
how much attention is paid to the religious in
structon of this class of the population, outside
of the regular ministrations among them, where
thcy have access to organised churches in town
and country. We have been furnished with the
following official
