TWENTIETH DAY.

BuFFALo, Thursday May "a, 1860.
Before proceeding TO the further consideration OF the
Slavery report the Committee Appeals reported in
the case Of C.. B. Burlng ham, who expelled from
the Genesee Conference. The case was sent back to
that Conference for new trial.
DR.. l.. c. Haven of the New-England Conference,
then took the floor and discussed the Slavery question
in favor of the majority report. Upon the conclusion
of Dr. Ravens speech the floor was assigned to DIR:
Durbin of Philadelphia, who, in behalf of several
men beers of both sections of the Committee, offered
substitute for the majority report. Ii recommends the
adoption of the entire preamble OF the majority
report, which relates TO the moral and eccleslastl-
cal aspects of the case and also recommends that
tie administration of the discipline shall be made TO
conform to the declaration of principles contained in so
much of that portion of The port cited far the
ay he allowed by the laws of the several States
aud recommends moderate discussion of the question
hereafter taking care, however to maintain the Anti
Slavery portion Of the Church. DR.. Durbn then pro-
CO. ded to sreak in support Of the substitute He had
carefully and prayetiully considered both the majority
ard minority rs and found that they both agreed
on the moral asIs of the case and only differed IN
regard the action proposed and he offered this sub
sttue AZ Il compromise.
DR.. Durbn's speech was eminently conservative,
ard bis sentiments in favor of the perpeuty of the
union of the States and the union of the Church were
received with applause.
Dr. Curry of New.York had hoped that this question
would come before this Conference without any
targlements whatever. He therefore moved that the
substitute he laid on the table. The Yeas and Nays
were called for and the motion to lay the table pre-
vailed by vote of 1876 to 50 This vote cannot be
considered as an actual test of the sentiment of the
Confere, ce, many of the Conservatives voted In
favor Of having the substitute the table, probably
with view OF arriving at definite action which
shall eventually settle the whole question.

and fairly considered it. the next question was, where
ought such railroad 10 be constructed, and by what
mesns could it be best laid DOWN. He would make 1t
an object of general competition to the people OF the
possible to induce capitalists 10 engage in such an en-
terplise; but under the provisions of the bill, there
would be no want of capital. All that was necessary
for the Government TO do to lay down the line and
the particular route to take and there would be
no want Of capital. Mr. Curtisthen pointed out, on
map exhibited in the hall for the purpose the route
which had been adopted and recommended by the Com
mittee The great 6jetkept in view by the Committee
principally lay downihis route through country
where il would he of the easiest TO the whole
country-of access to the growing population Of Pixies
Peak, the Great Salt Lake and California direct to
North and Souh To this latter end II is proposed 10
lay down two branch lines, commencing south
fJm Missouri for the benefit of the Southern States,
and the other commencing in Iowa, both gradually
convtrging for two hundred miles till they reached
TIE Grand Trunk line. One Of the advantages OF this
lire was that it would be go miles shorter than
any other that could be propos4d He then proceeded to
sise the provisions of the bill published and con-
cltded by again urging the Importance and necessity OF
entering upon the project at once.
MIR. DAVIS IA. l.. DEM, Ind moved that the bill
lie referred TO the Committee Of the Whole House
the State Of the Union. He did because be thought
it mpossibe that bill involving interests of such mag
nhude, and upon which many amendments would be
moved could he properly considered and discussed UNI
der the rules Of the House.
Tie motion was supported and opposed by members,
but finally prevailed and the bill was made the special
order for Monday and Tuesday next.
Nv. REAGAN (Dem., Texas) offered an amendment
making the cOrporators named the Trustees for the
Company 10 be hereafter organized under their
sJices and to prevent stock obbing swindlers from
rnse. He did not believe an honest bill could pass.
The House adjourned, the bill pending.
