The Bishop then stated that, the business
being done, the Conference was ready to
receive the appointments. He referred to the
scenes of sorrow and disquietude through
which they had passed, the trials to which
they had been exposed, and the poverty which
had come upon them, and TO the indepen-
dent stand taken in regard to the appoint
ments. There must be some disappointments
when they are announced, but the conclusions
to which he had come, after consultation
were as satisfactory as they could be at pre-
sent. All must buckle on the armor of the
Lord, and work with all their might. He
advised all TO engage with that solicitude
which they feel for the peace and quietude of
the great nation. He had taken the amnesty
oath, and advised all preachers TO do the same,
and begged that they would not engage in the
political scramble now agitating the country,
but, Us ministers of the Prince of Peace, bear
and forbear.
The appointments were then read rs follows,
