The speech Of the Rev. Mr.. Kettel in the Metho-
dist Episcopal Conference, now in session in this
city, reported in another column, deserves TO at
tract attention. 1t shows to what extremtes the
apologists for Slavery have at last been driven.
They have been obliged, as we have so often as
ssIied must and would be the case to follow close
in the wake of those whose cauae they have
cspoused. The Rev. Mr. Kettell is driven to the
ne cessity Of denouncng John Wesley as blind or
pIejudiced. BY way of argument against any
change in the rule Of the Church on the subject Of
Slavery he substantially Condemns the rule itself as
based upon Ignorance, and as gross and unfounded
attack upon the institutions of the South. Accord
log TO this reverend gentleman, Slavery is in itself
good thing aud an indispensable means for civilz
iDg and christi3mzing the negroes. Every one, be
thinks, owes bis labor to the world, and on that
principle, be justifes system by which ministers
Of his own denomination sold in the market,
al compelled by the lash TO labor in the field for
the profit of others. The Rey. Mr. Kettell has but
one further step to take, and doubtless in due sea-
SOD he viii be prepared TO take it. We expect to
find him at some future Conference advocating the
revival of the trade, on The very grounds on
which he now justfes the existence of Slavery.

The Japanese Visitors.

What are regarded as acts of extreme no.
likeness here, are deemed as acts of savage
rudeness in Japan. To spit in tie presence
of a japanese, is mortal offence and
splitting" like whiting" is an American
institution" Imagine, therefore, the feel.
ings of Indignation, horror and amazement
with which the Japanese ambassador will
regard the expectorating performances Of a
committee of the Common Council of New
York, or deputation of Congressman. As
the Japanese resent all degradations and in.
suits, not by killing their enemies, but by
committing suicide, we fear that the blood
of the whole embassy Of unhappy strangers
will be upon the hands of the first tobacco
chewing committee into whose hands they
may fall. The Japanese term for suicide is
''happy dispatch" The method of commit
ting the 'happy dispatch" is regulated By
code of honor, to which all japanese gentle.
men conform. If japanese of good social
position is insulted, he at once selects long
sharp knife, drives it up to the hilt in the
region of the "umbilical cord" and rips him.
self up to the diaphragm and falls dead
The japanese code of honor require the
party who gives the insult to do precisely
the same thing, and as consequence Of this
invariably fatal custom, the gentlemen Of
Japan are proyerbially the most polite and
urbane men in the world. In our inter-
course with our distinguished guests, it will
be well for our public men about Washing
ton, to bear this custom constantly in mind.

DELEGATES IN WESTERN New YORK
We learn that in the five Annual Confer
ences of the Methodist Church in Central
and Western New York, the late cleo
ton of delegates to the General Confer
ence hinged mainly on the question OF
approval or opposition to the Northern
Christian Advocate" This is one of the
regular and authorized papers of the
Church, but was charged by many with
being too conservative on the subject of
anti-slavery. The extreme ultras started
another paper, under the editorial manage
ment of VIM. Hosmer, former editor OF
the Northern Advocate" who associated
with him Rev. ii. Mattison and other vi
client anti-slavery partisans. The new pa
per took the title of the Northern indie
pendent" and, by the usual cry of Church
prostitution to slavery" &C., succeeded IN
gaining an extensive patronage among both
the clergy and laity. It's anti-slavery spirit
was of the type of DR.. Cheever of New
York, or of Gerrit Smith--consisting in spe-
cial attacks upon the conservatism of the
church Great anxiety was felt lest in the
election of delegates, these ultra partlsans
of the ''Independent" should succeed
The elections have Just been held, and the
result shows that out of the twenty-seven
delegates elected, only three have the slight
est sympathy with the new paper movement.
Rev. H. Mattison and Rev. Mr.. Uosmer,
the editors, were utterly defeated, and will
not therefore be permitted to urge their pc
culiar views upon the General Conference

THE Result IN WIScoNSIN.-The official
returns from ali the counties of Wisconsin,
show that Dixon has been elected chief JUS
tice, notwithstanding the claim set up by
the Black Republicans that their multiplying
candidate bad defeated him. His official
majority will not be far from one hundred.
The reason why there has been doubt of
the result at any time, was owing to the
large number of irregular votes mostly for
Judge Dixon, which had been polled, and
which were not returned. Very many of
these had only the initials of his name,
while others had the initials wrong. BY
adding these to the returns, the real MAJ orl-
