Church Matters.

WASHISGTOS, February T4.-When the
committee of the Baltimore Annual Confer
enee of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
appointed TO wait upon President johnson.
returned to Conference yesterday, sitting at
Alexandria, they reported that they had
most interesting and pleasing interview with
the President, who had entertained them
kindly to the exclusion of other important
business. They said they had laid before
the President the case Of a church of this
Conference which had been taken possession
Of by the military, and had informed
him that it was rumored that churches
had been seized in accordance with an or
der issued by him. The President replied
that he was not aware Of any such order.
The Committee had promised the President
= written statement of the facts in regard
to church property and other positions OF
tho difference. At tho conclusion Of the
report OF the Committee which was read by
Mr.. Wilson, Hon. John Hogan, Member OF
Congress from Missouri, who accompanied
the Committee on their visit to the White
House, rose and su5stantiated the state
nenis Of Mr.. Wilson, and stated further in
n conversation with the President, that Mr..
johnson had unhesitatingly said that no
sucn order as the one referred 10 had ema-
mated from him. He referred to an order
from the War Department that had been
issued in relation 10 a church At Winches-
ter, but that order was directed to General
Hancock to investigate the facts and make
u report, and tho President thought that it
had been satisfastorilysarranged. Mr.. Ho-
gan also mentioned the case Of church in
Missouri, in which the President had di-
rccted an investigation to be made, and the
facts reported TO him in order that be
might make proper adjustment Of it.
Mr.. Hogan then s:a ell that the p, Icy OF
the President was to restore the rights OF
all loyal people, and to leave future ques-
tions to be settled by the Courts after the
parties shall have been placed in the state
they occupied previous to past difficulties.
More Clerks,
The Posts special says the House has
passed resolution giving the Postmaster
General the right to appoint twenty nine
more clerks. Republicans and Democrats
alike voted for this resolution.
Freedmeu's Bureau Bill.
WASHINGTON, February 1.-The Freed
mems Bureau bill having yesterday been
placed in the hands Of the President, much

prove Of all Of its provisions.

This placei is situated at the intersection

cago Railways, "a miles south of Cleve-
land, and in one of the best grain and
Stock-produeing sections of Northern Ohio.
orrville is as yet in its infancy, but bids
fair to equal, if not excel, some of its more
aged neighbOrs. The great demand for
dwelling houses attests rapidly increa-
ing population, and many families are put
to grest Inconvenience to find dwelling
place. This deficiency will soon be rem
edied, as the enterprising firm of McGill
and Snarely intend the immediate con-
struction of ten or twelve buildings, which
action will be followed by many others,
though on a smaller scale. Situated as
this place is, in the center Of great coal,
lumber and iron regions, it cannot fail to
become q manufacturing depot of no
small pretensions. The facilities for ship
ping by two railways enable our mer-
chants to always pay few cents in ad-
vance of competing markets for all kinds
of country produce. The purchase of the
Wayne City Mills by G. n. Storrs s. Co.

ton. There are many other transfers

The Norfolk Post contains the follow
ing singular letter:
MoREHEAD CRY, January 5, 1866.
Editor Of the Norfolk Post:
SIR: Ihave just arrived in this place
from -, where saw and talked with
J. Wilkes Booth, the supposed assassin of
your late President. That he would be
alive after what had occurred at your Cap
ital, may be strange, but it is true never
theless.
saw him and B. Harris, who left with
him not four weeks ago, and learned from
him all the hardships that he underwent
in leaving this country. He says that no
one, who has the least regard for thetruth
will say that he was at Ford's Theatre on
the night of the l4th Of April last, and
wonders why no one present on that oeca-
sion did not pretend to recognize the man
that shot Lincoln until they were told that
it was him by Laura Keene, his bitter en-
emy. He did not, however, to me deny
or admit that he had done the deed, but
stated that no one could truthfnlly say, Of
their own knowledge, that it was him.
He declares that Mrs. SuTratt was in
noeent, and wonders how the man that
was killed in the barn looked. He learned
from the papers that he had heavy beard,
and had sheared and cut it in such an
awkward manner that his (Booth's) most
intimate friends would not recognize him
as Booth. He thinks not. He believed,
innocent or guilty, that if found he would
have been sacrificed to their mad fury,
and concluded to leave, which he did. And
as there can now be no harm in telling, l
will state what he told me-emi,ting the
names.
He crossed the river at Georgetown /;
stopped the next day near Fairfax Court
House; the next night he was taken near
Middleburg, etc, and from there near Gum
| Springs where he remained two days (;
and after more than three weeks travel
ing--mostly by night, and suffering Sc
verely-he reached Florida, where he was
detained for some time, until Harris, who
was not mentioned in the affair, and who
could not appear publicly, procured a
boat. which they ventured to sea in, and
made land safe. Booth was Immediately
taken sick, and has been most of the time
since.
In October he was much better, so much
so that he tok some exercise in the open
air, but relapsed and was confined to his
room until about four weeks ago. His
constitution, in my judgment, is ruined
and l don't believe he will live long. He
was preparing for changeOf climate, and
if no relapse has taken place, is probably
now in another country, where he will
meet with more of his own people, or
people from the same country.
Mr.. Editor, write such poor English
that I fear you will not be able to make it
out but it is the truth, the whele truth,
and if you wish you may publish it. l
shall not be in the country to read it.
Yours truly, ]. F.
