Baltimore M. II. Conference.

BALTIMORE, Mar. S.-The Baltimore Con-
ference of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
which is in session here to-day, adopted a
report by vote of As against 10, in which
they declare as follows That we owe
pledge of exclusive allegiance to the Gov
ernment of the United States in war and in
peace, and to its constitutional administra-
tion in every department thereof That we
therefore atlectionately exhort our people,
who, by position, kindred or interest, have
been tempted to sympathize with those who
seek the overthrow of this Government, to
seek the word of God as above recitcd, and
not esteem loyalty thereto as optional or Il
matter OF taste, sympathy or preference,
but one of divine injunction. and as in
v0lying the religious duty of prayer and
effort for the restoration of our national
unity, peace and prosperity; or, in the
language of the disciples, to use all lauda-
BILE means to enjoin obedience to the pow
ers that be. That we willnot receive into
the Conference and elect to ministerial or
ders, either from the local or ,itinerant
ranks, any man of known disloyalty.-
That in view of the great change which is
taking place in the public mind i'm the di-
rection of emancipation in the State of
Maryland and everywhere, we believe the
time isn0t distant when the Baltimore Con-
ference will no longer be embarrassed in
maintaining the well known principles of
the Methodist Episcopal Church OH this
subject.

RESIGNATION OF .JuDGE MATTHEWS OF
THE SUPERIOR CouRT.-Judge FitzJ. Mat
thewws, for many years Judge Of the Super
rlor Court of this county, yesterday tender
ed his resignation Of that position to Cow
ernor Brough, who accepted it, and will
appoint his successor, There. is no reason
assigned for this action, but those acquaint-
ed with the judge are aware that his contin-
ued ill-health is the cause. Judge Mat
tbews ran for the Office when 1t was first
created, as an independent candidate, and
was supported by the democracy, and elect
ed over Judge Noah II. Swayne, owof the
Supreme Court Of the United States. He
has generally acted with the Republican
party, but never became an active partisan.
His reputation is that of an excellent gem
tlenIan, and an able and popular jurist.--
He would have resigned some time ago,
but for some cause was induced to continue
iii office until too late to elect his successor
at the spring election, in order possibly, that
Republican might receive his place and
its emoluments until the fall election. J.
w. Baldwin is the Republican candidate for
the judgeship, and will probably be APP
pointed. rtl 5of ,ais
