NoTEs OF WARNING.-Thc New York cor
respondent of the Charleston Mercury writes
to that journal 1.-THE chances now are that
you will have comparatively decent repre-
sentation of New Workers at the national con-
vention. This, for two reasons. In the first
place, all the 'roughs' who can beg or borrow
money have gone to England to see the great
mill, and cannot get back in time to honor
your city with their presence. In the second
place, the tone Of several articles in the Mer-
curry, which have. been extensively reproduced
at the north, convinces our rowdy politicians
that their little eccentricites will not be hui
mored by your citizens and your police, and
that jail or possibly gallows, may offer an
insuperable impeachment to their return to the
north. The confidence men, who bilked' the
landlords of Cincinnati and Baltimore at the
national conventions in those places, are afraid
that hotel proprietors will be little too smart
for them"

CITY AND COUNTY.

EASTER SUNDAY,-In the throng that crowded
81. Johns church, yesterday were many strangers,
drawn thither to listen to the beautiful music which
usually constitutes such prominent portion oil the
service of the Catholic church the most joyous of
their festivals Haydn's Second Mass was sung at
the morning service The choir, under the able di-
rection of j. F. Murray often give large portions OF
the works of the old masters but on this OCCASION
they assisted by an orchestra consisting OF ten
pieces, belonging to the National Band, among
them Mr.. Arbuckle. Seldom is the sublime music
of Haydn so well rendered to our citizens as 1t was
on this occasion. The orchestral accompaniment
was rich addition to the choir, allowing fuller
scope to the real inspiration of the music. The Ky
rieeison was prayerfully and beautifully performed
and the mass was throughout given with that i'm
pressiyeness which secures a sure control OF the
senses The Amen fugue was particularly well ren-
dered.
At the vesper service several sacred compositions
of the Able Lambillotte. French composer were
sung with orchestral accompaniment. Among
them TIE deuni IaudanluS; cor amoriS, chorus and
Duet which was finely sung, Miss McConyllle and
Miss McLane sustaining the duett. The next piece
was the first movement of the Gloria in Mozarts
Twelfth Mass. This followed by Tantam ergo,
solo and chorus from Berge, given with deep So
lemnity Mr.. McConyille sustaining the solo. The
closing music was a chorus from Lambilote, gfo-
ROSA domino. Thus closed the "benedicton OF the
blessed sacrament" 1t is occurrence for music
of such high order to be given here, and many
thanks are due to Mr. Murray, leader ofhe choir
at ST. Johns Church. for taking so deep interest in
its performance. Two of the choir, Mr.. McConyille
and Mr.. UNeil are very favorably known by all
concert goers.

~ ,r.xv England Methodist Conference.
The conference commenced its sessions in
Springfield on Wednesday last. The exer-
cises of the first day were preliminary
and routine in their character. The meeting
of Thursday was devoted to regular confer
ence business, and to hearing reports from the
presiding elders of the several districts. JET.
ferson Hascall, presiding elder, spoke of the
Worcester district, religiously and financially
as in good condition. All the pulpits now
have voices, and many churches have been re-
paired and some new ones built within the past
year; much harmony prevails among the
ministers and laymen. AT the Sabbath school

we're made by Rev. j. H. Twombly, president

dant circulation In the afternoon the follow

Republican says that $50 far as there was any
contest, it was personal; as on the question,
which will agitate the general conference, Of
changing the rules of discipline so as to eX-
clude all shareholders from church member
ship, this conference is pretty unanimous for
the change and exclusion" The anti-slavery
anniversary in the evening was largely ate nd
ed, and the incorporating anti-savery doc
trine was laid down by Rev. DIR, Haven, ed-
tor of lions Herald, Rev. Mr.. Thayer of Bos-

Twas whispered in heavn, and mutter'd in hell,
And Echo caught softly she sound as it fell;
In the confines of earth twas permitted to rest
And the depths of the ocean its presence contest;
Twas seen in the lightning, and heard in the thun

Twill be found in the spheres, when riven asunder,
1t was given to man with its earliest breath,
1t assists at his birth, and attends him in death,
Presides DER his happiness, honor, and health
Is the prop of his house. and the end of his wealth
1t begins ey'ry hope, eyiry wish it must bound
And though unassuming, with monarchs is crown'd
In the heaps of the miser tits boarded with care
But is sure to be lost in the prodigal heir;
Without it the soldier and sailor may roam

In the whispers of conscience Its voice will be found
Nor e'er In the whirlwind of passion be drown'd,

| PASSAGE IN THE COMMITTEE RooM.-Dur-
ing one of the sessions of Mr. Covodes inyes-
| tigating committee, last week, and before the
testimony of Mr. Butterworth, one of the wit
nesses, had been signed, Mr.. B. assumed an
air of startling dignity, and addressed Mr..
Train of Massachusetts,, as follows -
Sir-In the course of this investigation you
propounded to me questions personally offon-
sive. You, in effect, asked me to state if
had not bargained with the president and bar
tered my principles to retain my place. In
order that no unjust differences might be
drawn from a refusal, l consented to answer
the question. Iregard this as a personal in
suit, and one to which do not intend quietly
to submit. Inow give you an opportunity to
withdraw the question.
Mr.. Train-I did not intend to insult you,
sir. / was requested to ask the question, and
did so simply to ascertain if the president has
used any improper influences in the matter.
Mr.. Butterw orth-You had no right to pro-
pound an impertinent question to me to crafty
the malignancy of cowardly slanderers. II
| you had ventured such query in the streets,
should have resented the insult on the spot
and l do not intend to permit any member OF
this committee to shield himself behind his
official position to escape a just personal re
sponsibility.
Mr.. DIN (member of the committee II do
not agree with you, sir, that you have right
to hold any member personally responsible for
the discharge of his official duties and so far
as l am concerned, do not intend to be init
Undated by threats.
Mr.. Butterworth-I make no threats l
state a fact, and l now submit the matter to
the action OF the committee. My action will
be determined by yours.
Mr. Covode-I see no objection to the with
drawal of the question, and answer also but
you had better let the testimony stand until
the committee close their labors, and this can
be left out of the printed report.
To this Mr.. Butterworth assented, and the
affair was thus amicably adjusted.
