Farmer Robins Visit to the Fair.
BY A BREEZE FROM THE WEST.
I'll tell you story, it's simple and true,
Of Robin, the farmer, and worthy dame
Who with Johnny and Betty, promising
pair,
Came down to the city to visit the Fair.
Going forth on the streets, twas pleasant to
Their faces upturned in evident glee-
'l4ook wifen' cries old Robin-"Look John
ny and Bet
There's a picture more wondrous than any
thing yet!'
Twas wyman's gay poster that shone from
For the Wizard was playing that week at
the HALL
"My ewes y said dame Prudence-"ths
pleases me we'll
We will see that strange man of whom we've
heard tell p
So early that night they all went to the
show
TO them passing moments were only too
Impatient they wait for the curtain to rise
That curtain which hid strange sights from
their eyes.
In time the bell rang, and the Wizard APP
peared-
As much like human as any we've heard -
His "temple of magic" glistening and
'Iook dame p says old Robin-a beautiful
sight.
Expecting to seean old chap in a wig
With long whiskers, grey hair, and panta
looms big
Our country folk thought they had longer to
wait
Ere the Wizard came forth in mystical state.
But their wonder was great when Wyman
began,
With his op'ning feat-the automaton man
The egg bag came next, and another great
trick
With the bottle which Wyman derived from
Old Nick.
The Wizard proceeded-made ribbons from
tow,
Smoke and fire from his mouth continued to
blow
Till Robin bewidered, remarked to his wife
That he meier had seen such man in his life
Each night of their stay, Robin, Prudence
and Bet
With Johnny the youngest, and therefore
the pet
fastened down to the Hall, determined to see
More and more of the wonders at Wyman's
levee.
At the close of the Fair, farmer Robin went
home,
Told each OF his neighbors-a them to
come
Time will never etface from the minds of that
pair
Their visits to Wyman on the week Of the
Fair.

TIE METHODIST episcopal CoNPERENcE-
A Division Effected. The session Of the Bal
tinore Conference yesterday wss the most im-
portant of the session, inasmueh as il quieted
an agitation that had been in existence for
fifteen years. 1t will be recolected that at
the last session of the conference q division
was proposed and carried, but that required
the confirmation Of the General Conference,
which body returned il to the annual confer
ence for settlement. The subject, as on all
matters Of importance, was referred to q COM
mittee, and on Tuesday, two reports. ma
jority and minority were submitted. Neither
of these seemed to meet with the general ap.
probation of tho members, and a compromise
was proposed to divide by districts When
the subject was called up vest .riay, there
was considerable excitement, but the debate
was tempered with moderation and good feel
ing, and after a discussion of two hours, the
division was effected by large majority vote.
By this division, the Baltimore Conference
will be composed of the Baltimore, Potomac,
Lewisburg, Roanoke, ROckinghs am and Win
chester districts, including Patspsco stations
and circuit, and Montgomery circuit, and the
baltimore East Conference will be composed
of the North Baltimore, Frederick, Cunfher-
land. Bellefonte, Northumberland and Car
isle districts, including Whatcoat and Emory
stations. There will therefore be two confer
ences held next Spring Anssri-
