felt restricted to moments for the duration
of my remarks. | loose in brother Conk-
lin dear ministerial friend. have had
an intimacy with him as a christian broth.
er, uncqualed in the history Of my ministry.
There are elements in bis character which
open the way for such an intimacy with
mind and heart at all kindred to his own.
Let me say to you that have prayed with
him side by side, in solitary places, upon the
bended knee, again and again; that have
felt from his lips the power of unwritten
prayer, as | have seldom knownit Ihave
talked with him about men in ministerial
life. / have heard other men vent them
selves in cutting criticism upon their com
peers and superiors in professional life but
never have heard from bis lips any but
the words Of loving commendaton.
If ever he has noted aught in the minis.
terial character, it has been in the kindest
manner. | have spent hours upon hours
of the sweetest private converse with him !;
and, though have heard OF other minis.
ters of the highest station, falling dread.
fully, have felt certain that brother Conk.
lin was not a man so to fall, not because
that believed that human nature is self
sustaining virtue even under the power of
renewing grace, but because felt that he
so commits himself to the protecting grace
of God, that the grace will sustain him. l
expect never to hear from the broad valley
to which he goes on imputation upon his
character that can be sustained.
The choir and congregation then united in
singing 10 the hymn commencing
"Blest be the tie that binds
Our hearts in Christian love"
The meeting was brought to a close about
haltpast nine o'clock, by the prououncing Of the
benedcton Of Mr.. Couklin.

The PRESIDENTIAL CANVASS is progress
Ing rather quietly. What little interest ex'
lists Is confined to the close and doubtful
states. Illinois seems to be the most wide
awake state as yet, and there is genuine
snthusiaHm, confined chiefly, however, to
lhs republicans, who have great confidence
"a their ability 20 carry the state for 'honest
old Abe" In the other states the interest
mostly eenters in the bargains going on or
attempting by the anti.republicau parties,
and the campaign will not fairly open till
these chaftering negotiations are completed
or exploded, b the various parties have taken
their positions and decided what they want
to do and what they can do. Several at
tempts have been made TO get up great
crisis" but the disunion thunder falls dead,
ami the ffre-aters repeat their stale bluster
In vain The people of the free states arc
IhOrougly disgusted with the trick, and it
will injure the parties that use it much more
than any other. The campaign loses much
OF its life from the common impression that
the result is already fixed fact, aud that nc
amount of barter and bargain can prevent
the triumphant election of Lincoln and
Hamlin by the people, while the only thing
the opposing factions now hope for is to
throw the election into Congress. 1t is be-
coming clear too, from the movements on
the political chess board, that the leaders
of the various factions are now planning
more in reference to the reorganization of
parties after the election than with my re-
gard to the decision of the election itself.
To Mr. Douglas at least, the question, who
shall lead the opposition party during the
Lincoln and Hamlin administration is o
prime Importance. since his prospects fol
the present amount to nothing.

The MARYLAND SrYLE.-The State OF Mary
land occupies position OF "betwixt and be-
tweeuity" which gives vast influence in the
campaigu Her orators are men Of mingled
energy, moderation, sound sense and reasonable
argument. Thus, at Bell Everett meeting at
Brunswick, n. J. on the 18th inst. Hon. j. NJ.
Harris, NJ. G. of Maryland, spoke as follows ::
When Abraham Lincoln is elected, what
practical thing is he to do in connection
with slavery 2 believe the first act of
his administration will be to nationalize the
party. lie will endeaVor to strengthen it
South, and make it acceptable there Is
there a Republican who would vote for him
if he didn't believe be would make his ad-
miustration National one 7 Why, then,
don't you make it the party Of the country
before the election ? have no fears of
the Republican party. have mingled in
Congress for years with Republicans, and
| haven't heard the first man of them say
that they were going to interfere with the
institution of slavery.
How different is this from the balder dash
we hear occasionally from some of oar ugubri
ous friends who sigh so knowingly over the DESC
aion of our political Zion, whenever they think
of the election of Republican President.

THE PRINCE WALES, is still the lion in the
British American provinces, and, judging
from the space devoted to his movements in
our metropolitan papers," the interest of
the whole continent centers in the festivities
that mark the progress of the future king
of England. The ancient city of Quebec
has welcomed him, and exhausted its inge-
nuity and considerable amount of its
