ence,

The Conference concluded the business of q
the session of this year on Friday evening" c
AT the afternoon session the report of the Stew
ards OF the church was adopted, and the report |
Of the committee TO whom the case of the Rev.
Edward Jones was referred, was receiyed.-tl
This case excited considerable debate some days
ago. The report of the special committee was
unanimously in his favor, but was debated for
considerable time in the Conference, and final
ly rejected. In the course ofthe debate, Mr..
Jones was ably and warmly defended by Rev.
Drs. Hudgson, Cooper and Anderson, and Bit
terry opposed by Revs Manship, Sumption and
E. J. Way.
Bishop Scott, TO whom were referred the le-
gal questions presented, after the case in which
Rev. j. A. Roche and Mr.. Thos. w. Price,
were parties, had been postponed, presented
his opinion in the matter. A II otion was adop- !
ted requesting the Bishop TO furnish copies OF
