Be7y- We have seen with good deal Of surprise
that the examinations Of Che character Of preach
ers before the Methodist Conference are all made in
public--not only in the presence Of the assembled
Conference but also before visitors. We cannot
believe that this is good policy. II subjects the
candidates TO too hard an ordeal II gives too
great publicity to any little faults inhrmites Of
the preachers. Charges are sometimes made against
them and objections urged that are not sustained
and yet they obtain total publicity, are talked
about by the community, and no matter what the
result of the charges be- they thus the occasion
Of rcproach upon the Church and her ministers.
We might add other objections to this system,
but do not think it is necessary. 1t seems to US
that these examinations should be conducted before
committee of Elders who should report the result
of them to the Conference; Or If not thus conduct
ed, they ought to be bad before the Conference
proper to the exclusion of visitors This opinion
Of ours is shared, we find, by nearly all whom VIZ
have heard speak of the matter. ffr

The Methodist Conference,


This body met here in annual convention, on
Wednesday the 10th inst, and adjourned yesterday
to meet again neat October at Athens Alabama.
There was an unusually large number Of preach
ers in attendance a, this meeting, and very lsrge
amount Of business was disposed Of and everything
passed of In the most pleasant manner. Bishop
Soule and Bishop Pierce were both in attendance
the latter dscafgng the duties of President of the
Conference. lie presides with good deal Of per-
sonal dignity, and discharges business with con-
siderable expedition, but seems to have no idea Of
preserving that order winch is common to most Of
deliberatvc bodies, and which we should certainly
expect to see maintained in ecclesiastical assem-
blies.
The first three days Of the conference were occu-
pied with the regular ordinary business including
examinations Of members. On Sunday morning,
at II o'clock Bishop Pierce preached at the Metho-
dist Church to an immense congregation. His SER
mon was one Of great power-plain, PRACTICAL for
chile, void of all oratorical display, sensational
effects Cs = ~ @s4
On Saturday night the annual Missionary meet
ing was held and subscriptions and collections taken

the address, and made a very effective appeal. The
collection here amounted 70 about $as0, exclusive
of special donation of 500. On Tuesdny morn
ing one of the most interesting incidents of the
whole meeting occurred. This was funeral dis
course by Rev. DR.. Green, of Nashville, commemor-
alive Of Rev. A. r. Erwin and two or three other
members of the Conference who died during tho
past year, whose names we have forgotten. During
the session sermons were preached by Reys. A. L.
P. Green, J. b. McFerrin Jas. Cross. Thos. Maddini
Mr.. Mooney Mr.. Barbee, Mr. Petway and others
there being preaching twice day most of the time
ut the Methodist Church. aud every night at one OF
more other churches-every church in town. except
the Roman, having been rendered TO, and accepted
by, the Conference.
This Conference said By the members to be
one of the most pleasant and harmonious ever held
The preachers all seemed to enjoy the occasion not
only one Of important business interests but also
as a time of happy social reunion after year Of
labor and toll H. their Masters vineyard. They
have now gone again to enter upon those labors,
and to experience another year of selfdenying self
sacrificing toll; and we hope we may venture to
say that they carry with them the prayers and
benedctions of every good man and woman in

rga- Last Tuesday morning Rev. A. L. p. GREEN
preached to the Conference, and an immense con-
course Of citizens, the funeral of Rev. Coleman
Gross, W. Cooley, and A. r. Erwin.
The text selected was in Philippians, LIST chapter
3lst verse ;-"For me 10 live ia Crst and 10 die ia
gdin."
Tho discourse was one of the most solemn and
impressive we bavo ever listened to, aud was one
of lasting good, doubt, to those who heard it.
The two gentlemen, hrst-named, were but little
known here, but are said 10y those who did know
them TO have been men of sterling worth, both in
their ministerial and private social relations and tc
hare been highly esteemed and greatly beloved.
Or. Erwin, as our readers are aware, was better
known here, perhaps than any other community
In the bounds of the Conference. Here he lived
and labored during the best years of his life, and
here he was beloved by all who knew him. A
the mention of his name there was hardly an eyt
in that vast auditory that not bcdimmcd witt
tears and scarce heart that did not beat in tende
love for his memory.

OUR FAIR.

Thls Is the Las paper that we shall issue before
our County Fair win commence, and we wish agar
to say to our readers that everything promises tina
we will have one Of the most interesting and sue
cessful Fairs ever held in Tennessee. Everything
that could be done by the Directors to ensure tb,
success Of the enterprise has, we believe, been done
It Il not necessary for US to 60 into inmate details
Of the arrangement Of the grounds, buildings, &c.
for we have several times spoken at length Of them
They ascomplcte and elegant as any association
OF the kind in this State. The Amphiihcatre bull
ding Is splendid ttructure--not only strong ant
substantial, but Il Is fine building. Comfortable
seats have been constructed rising in tiers on,
above another, around the entire circle with wild,
promenade floor at the top of seats--and on thiI
floor aud on the seats ten thousand persons can b
comfortably sheltered. The Judges Stand in tn,
centre Of the ring is beautiful ornament TO th'
Awphitheatrs--being two stories high, each tioo
being reached By spiral stairs, and afording mag
ni1ceut coup q ocR when the Amphtheatre seat
are flied. During the Fair a fine band of mus,
will occupy one Of the floors of this stand Stall
sufficient for all the stock that Is likely to be her
have been built aud plenty OF proycnder viii b.
supplied. Comfortable retiring-rooms for the us,
oflady-visitors have been built, and will be pro
vidsd With everything necessary to fS woman
up" (Notblug Of the kind has been provided TO
the men, but they look well naturally, and dom
need auy fixing upl)
From this hasty recapitulation Of the improve
ments, convenienccs and ornaments at the Fai
Grounds il will be seen that there is nothing want
Eng In that way, to the complete success of TIL
Fair
Almost every product of the farm, the work
shop and the honseeife's art is represented in th
list Of articles for exhibition; and for any that
left out, and may be deemed worthy of It, speca
premiums will beawsrdet. The pemiums in CIV
cry departmunt quitc liberal, and in most case
are larger than have been offered at any Of GU
nelghboring Fairs.
With all these Inducements we hope TO see a yer,
large attendance Let every man in Montgomery

give the premium to the inferior work--lookinp
more to the appearance of sjob than to the work
