The metnadist General Conference.

Ihe MctnOutSt UeneTui SohicichSc'
The General Conference of the Methodist Epis
copal Church South has been in session in New
Orleans since the 4th inst: All the Southern
Bishops, with tho exception Of Bisacp souLE,
are in attendance. The latter, broken down with
age, infrmity, toll and suffering, is ut his homo
near Nashville Tenn, upon bed from which he
will never nriae. He has written an eloquent and
affecting letter to the Conference, requesting
their prayers, and invoking Gods blessing upon
their doings and deliberations.
. Many of the most noted and able Methodist
pres chers of tho Southern Church are also in at
tendance and the daily meetings of the body
seem to be Characterised BY earnest labor, and
traught with dosp intorcst. Ono Of the chief
matters uudor consideration is the election of a
number Of new Bishops. 1t is said that DR.. WN.
NJ. WIsurMAN Of South Carolina, now President
Of tho University of Alabama, will undoubtedly
be elevated to the Episcopaey.
Two OF moro of tho Bishops have been author
lied to wait upon President JOHNSON to thank
hlm for restoring the property belonging to The
Church, which was taken by force and lately
held By the M. e. Church, North.
: And while speaking of the Northern Church, 1t
will not he amiss 10 inform many of our readers,
who may be ignorant of the fact, that Bishop
BAKER Of that Church has lately been to Char

canvasaed, Biahop BAKER organized+a Conference,
embracing in its circuits the States Of
South Carolina, Eastern Georgia and Florida, to

ference. This Conference has stations on most o.
the Islands, in Charleston, in Beaufort, in George
town, in orangeburg, in Cheraw, and mahy other
places in the Southern and Eastern portions Of
our State. Since tho Methodist Church, South,
and the Methodist Church, North, are two en-
tirely distinct and separate organizations, this
state of thingsis, of course TO be deeply deplorcd
When tho General Conference of the Methodist
Church, South, shall have adjourned, we will en-

Taken i'm and Done For.

Mr.. J. T. Fields, of the firm of Tick
nor and Fields, publishers in Boston, is
reputed to have a wonderful memory and
knowledge of English literature. The
London ReUie0 tells IN anecdote of him {:
"One day at a dinner party, a would be
wit, thinking to puzzle Mr.. F. and make
sport for the company, announced prior
to Mr.. Fields arrival that he had himself
written some poetry, and intended to sub
NIT it to Mr.. Fields as Southey's. At the
proper moment, therefore, after the guests
were seated, he began: Nh. Fields, l
have been a good deal exercised OF late,
trying to find out in Southey's poems, his
wellknown lines running thus repeating
the lines he had compOsed). Can you
tell us about what time he wrote them
Il do not remember to have met them
BEFORE" replied Mr.. Fields, land there
were only two periods in SoutheY's life
when such lines could have been written
by him." when were those" gleefully
asked the witty questioner. Some
where" said Fields, about that early pc
Rod of his existence when he was having
the measels and cutting his first teeth; Of
near the close of his life when his brair
had softened and he had fallen into lido
Joey. The versifcation belongs to the
measels period, but the expression clearly
betrays the;idiotic one" The questioneT
smiled family, but the company roared."

Anecdote of Peter Cartwright.

An exchange says that the following
anecdote was related of the venerable DR..
Cartwright at the recent session of the
Methodist Conference. The event men
toned is said to have occurred recently,
and the story is too good to be lost:
HE was called during a visit to one Of
the parishes in his district to administer
the rite of baptism to an infant, and tax
ing the child in his arms, he eaquired in
his usual slow and sure manner, Mad.
am, what is the name of the infant ?"-
Jefferson Davis" responded the mother.
Uncle Peter stood a moment COMPOUNDED,
when showing the child in no gentle man.
ner towards the mother, he exclaimed in
not the most pleasing tone he could com
mand "take the THING AWAY !" and plac'
ing it in the arms of its mother left the
house without baptizing it, thus refusing
to c~ountenance sympathy with the REBEL.
ion even is so small a matter as that"
He done right, andif any dogs name
had been Jefferson Davis before the re
bellion broke out, we would have chang
ed it, or shot him. No loyal citizen would
perpetuate the name of a traitor by call
ing an offspring after him. 1t is the duty
of all good citizens 10 discountenance dis
loyalty in whatever form it may appear.

GRAPE CULrURE.-A German resident Of
Keokuk, says the Constitution, four years
ago last spring, bought ten acres of ground
five miles from that city, on the rapids,
and the same season planted four acres
of grape cuttings. While the grapes
were maturing the recent summer, he
was offered by a gentleman of that city
$4,000 for the chances of his crop. He
refused to sell, and his vintage has yield.
ed him 1,S00 gallons of wine, worth g
per gallon, or s., 600 for one years crop OF
grapes. This is an enormous profit, and
seems more like the gold finding stories
of California fifteen years ago than an in
cident of agriculturer in Lee county,
Iowa and is strictly true.
GRABBING SHEEP.-Daily we see sheep
grabbed by the wool and hauled about.
VIII people never learn better? Let
some one take them by the hair, and they
would probably learn a lesson. Could
they look under the skin they would be
surprised how much suffering they inffict.
ed-for the sheep is dumb, and does not
tell its pain. Take by the neck-any
place rather than the wool--any place
hut the hair. So it is where sheep are
hooked or thumped or knocked about.
They are tender it must be Remembered
more than any stock on the farm.
THE Mich Cow.-The Massachusetts,
PlOughman, says: So far from trying to see
how little food we can subsist a mich COW
on, the object should be to see how much
we can make her eat. The COW should
be regarded as a machine for the manu-
facture of milk.-Feed therefore so as to
sharpen the appetite and induce the ami
NAL to eat freely. If you have a long
row to feed, put q small forkful before
the first and so on to each as you go along.
By the time you get to the end, the first
may have eaten all up clean, and be wait
ing for more. Begin again in the same
way and go round again and again if nee
essary. Put a large feeding before a COW
at once and it would not be eaten with
half the relish, and some of it might be
left.
MANAGING TTMID HoRsEs.-Ths editor
of the Field states that he was riding a
high couraged mare the other evening up
a narrow lane, L met a threshing machine
coming smoking toward me. Of course,
when within fifty yards there was a sud
den bolt round. One of the men came
forward to lead the mare past, but she
reared up and would go no nearer; the
other came up and said, Let me have
her, sir, and I'll warrant she'll go, for l
never saw n that l couldn't get by yet"
l then got off the mare-for there was
barely for her to pass between the
machine and the hedge-and he began
rubbing her nose with his oily hands,
when he took her by the rein and led her
by the machine without any trouble.
