The CoNFERENCE.-The conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Church South is still in
session, with important business under consid-
Grafton and crowded houses.
William G. Starr, local preacher of Provi.
dence circuit; James W. Connolly, Brunswick
circuit Robert A. Scott, Mecklenburg; James
D. Still, deacon, Gosport station Nelson
Chamberlain, deacon, Pasquotank circuit
John Lane Chamberlain, preacher, same cir.

Bowles, Bedford circuit; ]. Lester Shipley
Emory, Carlisle, Pa. James W. Compton,
same circuit; George M. Robertson, Campbell
circuit John Williamson, Washington street
station, Petersburg, Va; and Joseph W. Payne
Stafford circuit were severally recommended
by their respective quarterly conferences for
admission, on trial, into the travelling connec
ton, passed examination of character, and were
admitted accordingly.
Thomas s. Campbell, an elder, who, located
at North Carolina Conference, held in Beau.
fort, N. G., Dec. II, 1859, passed examination
of character, and was readmtted.
Humphrey Billups, Henry d. Wood, and
Henry E. johnson, passed examination of
character, and, on motion, ordered that Hum
phrey Billups, Henry D. Wood, Jos. Spriggs,
and Joseph Carson, be placed on the supernu.
merary list and that certificates of location be
granted, at their own request, to Henry E.
johnson and Henry P. Nelins. This venera,
BILE minister (Carson) was a stationed preacher

Various committees reported. The stewards
report the sum at $7,668, or $66.50 dividend
on the 800 to claimants.
The report and resolutions of the special

less, looking to a full and cordial reunion at nt
distant day, is the order for this evening.

GEORGETOWN ITEMS.

GEORGETOWN FLOUR AND GRAIN MARKET
Flour-Superfne is quoted at from to $5.25.
The Wheat market is unsettled; Red Wheat,
los to $l.lO; Prime Wheat, LIS to $l.2O.
The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal is doing
very little business. Owing to the damage
done by the freshet above Harper's Ferry, the
'coal trade is checked and, on this side, by
reason of the state of the markets for grain
and farm produce, the farmers are sending for
ward scarcely anything for sale. The whole
receipts at the canal collection Office in George.
town, during the week ending on Wednesday,
amounted to only $27l.47, Of which $57.4O
were for the up-trade, leaving balance Of
$2l4.O7 for the trade downwards. There is,
nevertheless, feeling of improvement in gen
eral business. Nothing but the turmoils ari,
sing from politics, which probably receive a
good deal more than their due weight of i'm,
portance in the business world, keeps mercan'
tile and general affairs back from a very high
degree Of prosperity. Sooner or later, it would
appear, this must come.

and requested some Of his friends to accompany
him to the doctors house, that he might apol.

house, he offered his apologies, but was re.

and vituperative language. Griffin retaliated,
and, becoming excited, brandshed dirk,
whereupon Mrs. R. seized gun and attempted
to shoot him, but not being able to discharge
it, handed it over to her husband, who shot
Griffin dead on the spot.
