A BrOadside from the IronsIdes. ;,

A BrOadside from the IrOnsIdes."
A correspondent Of the London
Times, writing from Richmond, under
date of December 2lst, thus discourses
of naval armament:
Again / feel tempted to raise a
warning voice about the disparity of the
armament on board Of the English and
American vessels. 1t is impossible for
those who have been many months abb
sent from England to be well informed
as to the actual state Of public opinion
at the present moment upon this vital
subject But, judging from the officers
in her M9jestys navy, who have at rare
intervals brought vessels of war into
Confederate ports, it appears still to be
held, that the 68-pounder, or S-inch
smooth-bore, is England's best weapon
Of offense against iron-clad vessels. The
experience gained at Charleston ena-
bles me confidently to affirm that as
well might you pelt one of the Yankee
monitors or the Ironsides with peas as
to expect them to be in any way dam
aged by S-inch shot Another disagree
able question forces itself upon an Eng
ishman's attention when he is cogni-
zant Of the terrible broadsides thrown
by the eight ll-inch guns of the Iron
sides-one of the most formidable
broadsides, in the opinion of the de
tenders of Charleston, which has ever
been thrown by any vessel on earth.
Have we any snip in existence which
could successfully resist such a broad
side, and respond to it with anything
like commensurate weight and vigor
! should be faithless to my duty if /
did not mention that ii is the universal
opinion Of all the English officers sery-
ing in the Confederate army, with whom
l have conversed, that England is be-
hind America in the weight and power
of the guns sent by both nations to sea.
1t is still a matter of the greatest sur
prise to those who are cognizant of the
endless experiments in guns and pro-
jectiles which are every day made by
the Federal and Confederate States,
that England has not thought it worth
her while to attach to the armies of
both nations such a commission as Nc
Clellan had in the Crimean war, with
view to their gaining such scientific in
formation with regard to ordnance and
proiectiles as at this moment can be
gained nowhere else on earth 1t is
my conviction that from both sections
such commissioners would receive moth
ing but courteous and unreserved in
formation upon all that it is important
for them to know 1t is scarcely credi-
table to our Government that they
should be blind to the opportunities for
gaining information which this gigantic
conflict affords, or that from Old World
pride they should refuse to avail them
selves of the experience derived from
a continent destined henceforth and
evermore to play no secondary part in
the drama of the world"

Cnnference on &c. Ohurch.

The annual meeting of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church convened in the
Representative Chamber of the Capitol
at Jefferson City, on the ID inst, Bishop
O. p Baker presiding; L. NJ Vernon
Secretary; j. NJ Davidson Assistant
Secretary; and J. T. New, Statistical
Secretary.
The following resolutions in regard
to Church property belonging to the
Southern Church were passed
WHEREAS, The War Department of
the United States Government has in
vested the Bishops Of our Church with
the power to possess and occupy the
Churches of the NJ. E Church, South.
situate in certain Departments of the
country whose pulpits have heretofore
been supplied or occupied by disloyal
ministers, who have been appointed by
disloyal Bishops, which power though
held since last November, has not been
exercised in any part of the State; and
inasmueh as large numbers Of persons,
both members and ministers of the NJ
E Church, South, have already sought
admission into our Church, and many
are making arrangements TO connect
themselves Herewith, thus placing
themselves within the reach of loyal
ministerial services therefore, be il
resolved, by the Missouri and Arkansas
Annual Conference of the NJ. z. Church ::
l. That as a Conference we feel high
~ gratified by this exhibition of the
unbounded confidence of the Govern
ment and Of the people in their loyal
ty patriotism and the religious power
Of the NJ E. Church.
2 Thatwe fully approve of the course
OF Bishop Ames in this State, in not
acting under the authority conferred
upon him by the War Department in
November last
g. That we most earnestly recommend
to our Bishops a continuance of the
same course, inasmuch as we do not
desire either the occupancy or the pos
session Of any property to which we
have no legal title, but that. relying
upon the blessing of Almighty God, we
shall preach 8 pure religion and uneon-
aitional loyalty as essential truths for
the restoration Of peace and unity.

ceived to be the truth and for the best

Like the great majority OF the sol
diers of the Republic who now grit
rebellion with their bayonets, I am no
politician. Though ] hate and detest
the foul spirit that has deluged my
country in tears OF anguish and OF
blood, / entertain no enmities for the
people whose vile and faitbless leaders,
geographical position and circumstances
alone forced them 70 rebel against the
Government of their fathers Con-
ceiying It to be the duty of every
patriot TO heal the wounds inflicted, to
assuage the prejudices engendered-to
cast into the bitter waters of Marrah
the sweetening wood of charity
warred upon rebellion and not upon
innocent women and children. How
far or how much have succeeded in
prosecuting this purpose, leave it to
the people to say,
Elections were recently held, resultlnl
in the partial restoration Of civil law,

With rife crack, andapgry curse
From throats with savage oaths grown

But on their bloody hunt they go,
In quest not Of their dauntless foe,
But flying captives, faint from pain
Oflong~borne wounds, the bali, the chain,
Hunger's fierce pangs, and keener smart,

Through summers sun, or scorehing brain,
Scarce chilled by winters chill, and rain
For home, with its remembered bliss,
Sweet children's arms, a wife's fond kiss,

They wildly strive for liberty;
But, maneled, bleeding, bruised and torn,

To taste from Richmonds chivalry
Famed Southern hospitality.
