nEefI.odist Conference.

The Methodist Conference closed its session IN
this city, on Monday evening last. We are unable
to give. even a summary of the proceedings and
business transacted, having been prevented by
other engagements, from attending upon the meet
ia.s Of the conference. The sessions of each day
we're chiefly devoted to business relating to the in
terests of the church. The members were kept
busy, mostly, from morning until evening. Bish-
Cd JAMES is an admirable presidingofficer and be-
Iieves the business of the Conferences should be
cork, while it remains together, consequently,
a large amount of business was transacted each
day while the session lasted
On Thursday evening, Rev, Mr., Mason, Presi-
dent of Appleton University. delivered an able
address lmore particularly relating to the educa-
ton of the Ministry; it was an admirable produc-
ton, and its publication should have been or
dered for general circulation.
On Friday evening the annual missionary SER
n IN was preached by the Rev. Mr. Hamilton.
Saturday evening was devoted to the holding OF
the usual missionary anniversary. Excellent and
eloquent addresses were made on this occasion
by Rev, Mr.. Titon NOW presiding Elder of this
Distriet) and Rev. Mr.. Curtis of GAINESVILLE.
On Sunday most of the Protestant Churches of
the various demonstrations in this city and the
surrounding country were supplied with preach
| ing by members of the Conference. Bishop
| James preached in the Methodist Church in the
morning; DIR. Poe of Cincinnati preached in the
afternoon, and Rev. Mr.. Curtis in the evening"
DIR. Bannister of Evanston College preached in
the Congregational Church in the morning, and
DR.. Mason president of Appleton Univerity in the
evening. Rev. H. G.. Tilton preached in the Bap
fist Church in the morning, and Rev Mr.. Fellows
| in the evening.
Among the resolutions adopted by the Confer
ence during the sessioc, were resolutions on Tenn
persnce, Tobacco and Slavery. The resolutions
en- Slavery were fully mp to the demand of the
times. The proclamation of emancipation by the
President, was heartily endorsed
| The proceedings OF the Conference, we learr
were harmonious. and we doubt not, favorable
impression has been made upon the citizens o
this community of the gentlemanly department o
the members generally.
Before the final adjournment the following res
olutions were unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That the thanks of this Conference
be and are hereby rendered to the citizens of Ke'
| nosha, for the very agreeable entertainment they
have afforded US during the present session.
Resolved, That the Secretary be requested Il
furnish copies of the above resolution to the cit.
papers, and TO the different Churches to be rea'
next Sabbath. 5. w. FORD, Sec'y,

we yvIAh 10 call attention to a notice in
another column ofthe annual meeting of the Keno
cha county S. S. Association. Atthis meeting the
Town Secretaries viii present their reports of the
progress of the work for the Presentyear.
In the afternoon the meeting is tie be addressed
by Mr.. Van Wyck of Paris. This fact alone is
enough to secure & good attendance ofour citizens
as Mr. Van Wyck is good speaker, and has long
been an earnest and efficient lsborer in the Sab
bath School work.
Ameeting viii probably be held in the evening
when questions OF interest will be discussed by
man who have had much experience in conducting
Sabbath Schools
We trust these meetings win be well attended
or we look upon the Sabbath School as the only
means we have in operation for the Religious cul
ture of the children and youth OF our country.

Happening to be in the vicioIty of the North
Ward school at interim ssion, few days since,
was attracted thitherward by the shouts and
loud laughter of the little folk of Mr.. Barns and
Miss. O'Nei departments and having an hour
to spare, called and witnessed few recitatatlons
How Miss O'Neill manages to get along with
seventy or eighty restless human beings daily, IS
more than can imagine but she does it, ana adj
mirably too.
As for the department up stairs, under the inns
mediate care of of Mr. Barns l can only say that
in it, he is fully sustaining his previously won rep
utation.
Everything is done in thorough and systemat-
ic manner The pupils move around the room IN
the best of order and the greatest care and the
rectations are conducted with much promptitude
on the part of the pupils, aud earnestness ON the
part of the teacher,
The teachers inform me that the list of visitors
IS small this term
This shows the confidence placed in those IN
charge, but am certain that an hour spent IN the
North Ward school by every parent who SENDS
here would not only be source of pleasure to
the teachers and pupils, but also of qualification
and profit to themselves
What is true of the North Ward School Is nc
doubt true OF ell others in the city, but that one
can assure its patrons is in good hands

out the roots. When they do that they
transgress their proper sphere and destroy
the existing equilibrium. Witness the
immense amount of grain produced in the
West che past year. Providentially. Eu-
rope wants our surplus: probably she will
not next perhaps never again. No.
brother farmers, wheat is good, corn is
good; but they are not the only things. A
few acres of roots for home consumption
should be raised on every farm. In behalf
of horses, cattle, sheep and swine, I plead
earnestly for roots. Fed as cattle are in
winter, With hay and straw only, who,
would not call it dry fodder A peck of
turnips, beets or carrots fed to each animal
would be pleasant to them, and profitable
to their owner.
Horses should, By all means, have car
rots. They eat them without cutting. grow
fat and sleek. Turnips cut up fine and fed
to sheep in spring, when they get tired of
hay, are of great benefit. Piggy, too, likes
roots, though like some other, folks he pre-
fers TO have them cooked. As means of
promoting the health of stock they are un-
surpassed, and at the risk of mourning the
dispIeasure of the NJ. DIS. I assert they
are far superior to pills or physic. A strong
argument in favor Of roots is the great guam
tity that may be grown upon an acre. as
compared with other crops. 6. P.

The Hog Distemper.


EDS. RURAL NEW YORKER: Having seen
correspondence in recent issue of your
Journal, from Mr.. VIM. P. Trimble, of Erie,
Penn, relative to the hog distemper, raging
with such fatal effect throughout various
sections of the United States; and also hav-
ing had some experience with said distem-
per in this immediate section of the coun-
try, where fearful inroads have been made
upon the property of swine raisers, I take
the liberty to pen few lines relative to our
treatment, which has been attended thus tar
with entirely satisfactory results.
We take the position that when hog is
attacked with this disease it will will surely
die, and our experience up to this time has
confirmed this opinion. But IN every in

rested-at least in all instances that have
come under our observation, or to our
knowledge; and we are firmly of opinion
that the above remedy is q sure preventive,
if not cure. This medicine is prepared in
the following manner: Two teaspoonfuls of
tar to pint of boiling water. When thor
ougly melted, mix with half pail of bran.
aud then fill the pail with milk. This
makes q sufficient dose for six hogs.

ingenious that Il deserves to be recorded.
Dinners are ordered half an hour earlier
than they are usually served. and, instead
of being finished at half-past seven or eight'
are over at seven and half-past seven, SO
that persons of quality can 60 to bed aad
have a long sleep before they dress to go
