General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church for 1856.
EIGHTH DAY-MoRNING SESSION.

EIGHTH DAY-MoRNING SESSION.
FRIDAY, May 8.
The Conference met and resumed its session
with closed doors, in further consideration of
the appeal case which came up yesterday morn
ing. As there is some anxiety manifested to
know something of this case, arising, no doubt,
from the private sessions of the Conference in
reference to it, we will briefly state few mat
ters connected with it.
The appeal is made to the General Confer
ence from the decision Of the Cincinnati annual
Conference, in the case of Rev. Mr.. Harlan,
who was expelled from membership in the Cir
cnnati Conference for circulating reports in
volving the reputation and character of ex
Bishop Hamlan The Cincinnati Conference
thought it proper to take action in the matter,
and arraign Mr.. Hamlan on charge of SANDER
He was tried and expelled from the Conference
and the grounds of his appeal to the General
Couterence are that his previous statements in
reference to the ex-Bishop are true and that he
is able to sustain himself by evidence. This
evidence, and that Of the opposite side occu-
pied the time Of the Conference during all of
yesterday, and was resumed this morning.
The matter charged against Bishop Hamlan, Is,
that some fifteen or more years ago he accom-
plished the seduction of a woman, (whom we
shall not name, as we deem it unnecessary }
who has since died; that on her death bed she
confessed the matter, and that Bishop Ham
Ian, had confessed to Mrs. Harlan, the appel
lant's principal witness, that he had robbed
several girls or young women, of their chas-
tity.
Mr.. Harlan is present, with his wife as chiei
witness. Bishop Hamlan is at his home in
Schenectady, New York, and does not appear
in the prosecution. Harlan is on the defense
in answering charge of SANDER, preferred
against him in the Cincinnati Conference. II
was presumed he would occupy all OF this
morning in making his defense commencing
after the conclusion of the evidence. 1t was
thought that no reply would be made on the
part of the prosecution. We will announce
the vote and decision ofthe Conference as soor
as the same is made KNOWN State Jour.

concluded with investing the citizens, to call

STEAMER Fl. D. NEwCoMB,l

We, the undersigned, passengers from New
| Orleans to Louisville on board the steamboat
II. d. Newcomb, cannot part from the boat
without giving some expression OF testimony
of our appreciation of the manner in which we
have been treated by her gentlemanly and eff
| ficient officers.
We would particularize, could we do so, but
language is not adequate to give an idea of the
tout ensemble of the Newcomb.
She is an excellent craft and will be-with-
out shadow of doubt--a favorable boat with
the travelling community, and worthy of her
able, attentive and experienced commander,
| VIM. Hart. The clerk, Mr.. Ii. G. Landrum,
is courteous and polite gentleman to all, and
capable Of filling the station which he occupies
The pilots and engineers are gentlemen, who
appear to understand their business well; they
| fill very responsible stations and when travel
ers know that they are in safe hands, they can
sleep in peace.
w. Fl. Butler, the steward, deserves notice,
which we willingly give. He IS without ex-
ception, the prince of caterers. We can truly
say that he made the tables groan beneath
luxuries which would bear comparison with
any establishment in the United States Ev-
erything from the culinaire would please the
taste of the most faStidious. We have but
one fault to tind if fault it is, we had too much
ofthe good things of this life. But when there
are so many fine things why say more.
Believing and knowing the above as set
| forth, we unite in expressing our earnest desire
| that travellers may substantiate what we have
but feebly given utterance TO. With every
wish for the success of the Newcomb and her
gentlemanly officers, we say God speed.
- The Eclipse made her last trip from
New Orleans to Louisville in days and 16
hours. She was to have left Louisville for the
South last evening, and is due here to-day.
She will doubtless have accommodations for
freight.
The fast low-pressure steamer South
erner will be here early this morning for St.
Louis. Mr.. Archer, Of the office, will see that
passengers have every comfort and polite at
tention.
- The Memphis packet Wm Garvin
passed down yesterday morning in good time
and with fair trip Mr.. Shields has our
thanks for late papers.
- The New Orleans Delta says the Cairo
Mail Company have not rurchsed the South
ern Belle, Monongahela, or any other
boat as was currently reported.
The Fashion is due this morning from
St. Louis, and at an early hour. She is fast
and will take travellers to Louisville in quick
time.
We thank the clerk of the Highfyer
down early yesterday morning. for Louisville
papers Of the day previous.
