Reported Tor The Dlspat
gEOYsfOn Conference.

ABINGDON, VA, September %, 1860.
The annual session of the Holston Con-
ference commenced this morning at o'clock,
Bishop Doggctt presiding.
On motion, Rev. r. n. Price was appoint
ed secretary, and Revs. j. Il. StrlnSelloW
and j. r. Payne assistant secretaries.
Conference was opened with singing, and
prayer by the presiding officer, who made
IN admirable opening speech, congratul!-
ting himself upon being called to preside
over this Conference. The several standing
committees were then appointed.
Up to this time about one hundred dele
gates have arrived, and from all the lndlca-
tons the session will be harmonious and
profitable. Rev. David Sullins breaches the
annual sermon tonight. He is one of the
most talented ministers to be found Ill any
Church.
The Bishop well remarked this morning
that the Holston Conference occupies his
toric ground, and made recently heroic by
the suffering Of many of its ministers.
Jacob Brilliant, who was ridden on rail,
and Henry Neal and Jacob smith, who were
severely whipped because they preferred to
preach the gospel rather than politics, arc
in attendance at this Conference. The meet
inc will probably continue till "Wednesday
morning next. Abingdon is doing well by
the delegates in throwing wide her doors
for their accommodation.
Chickens hcrcabouts arc roOStln@ high.
Yours. LUAr.

General GoTtEon's visit - tiI IL c Il 5
Still Arriving.

LEXINGTON. VA, September ~, 1S69.
General Gordon left us on yesterday. lie
visited the institute, witnessed the evening
parade of the cadets, and inspected the
barracks, mess-hall, etc. He seemed very
much pleased with everything he saw, and
especially struck with the rapidity with
which the Virginia Military Institute has
been reconstructed" When he was last
here, at the head Of his division of veterans,
it had just been left in ruins by "Hunter
the Nandal."
The visit OF General Gordon, and espc-
cially seeing him i'll company with General
Lee and Il number of his old command,
awakened many Confederate memories, and
we could almost sec the "stars and bars"
floating in the breeze once more. But these
visions were rudely dissipated this morning
by seeing run up in front Of military head
quarters large United States flag. This is
the first time it has been deemed necessary
since the war TO hoist "the flag" i'll Lex
ington in SO conspicuous manner.
Students continue to come IN, and 1t Is
now pretty certain that the number of ma
triculatcs ut the college will reach four hum
dred or more during the session. The
classes are now pretty well organized, and
the boys arc buckling down to work.

there is uo,C no earthly reason why Virginia

shit makes its appearance. The PreSi.
dent has frequently expressed his anx.
irtv that the States should all be ad.
The President evidently would consider
the browning triumph of the first year OF
his administration, and in this he Is sup
nor'cd hv the wiScst statesmen of the Re.
ru'Iran party. The Sorc-headS. who intend
warning against IN" admission of Virginia,
will 1ight hard. They are already com

directly against the Conservative element OF

will hc certain 10 overcome the diSSensiOn-

Union. The State Of Virginia can mate
rjqllv assist him in this respect. Let her
have her entire congressional delegation
senator's and representatives, here ut the
rlpital when the two houses Of Congress
meet. II is hcrright--hcr undouhted right
10 elect senators when the Legislature
meets and their presence here cannot but
he a great moral and practical support to
the HIGH officials who desire Virginia to be
admitted immediately.
spanish and Cuban affairs have caused 4
great deal OF unnecessary excitement. This
was heightened to-day by the fact that the
President. upon his return To Washington
This morning. went almost directly after he
ali.hted from his carriage at the White
House to the State Department, where he
was in conference all the afternoon with
Secretary Fish. This fact was telegraphed
10 Wall street by stock operators or their
agents here, and consequently gold took an.
other upward flight" The idea that this
Government Is about to be involved in wal
with spain has had many believers, but SC
Gar finds none in official circles. There is ne
disposition on our part 10 fight because
Spain did not choose to accept the mediation
proposed by SicklcS and rs there is no pre-.
sent intention of this Government proceed.
Ing to recognize Cuba, it does not seem that
we are about to 90 TO war with Spain.

CHANGE IN THE CUBAN ARaY.--The New
York Journal Of Commerce learns from Il
gentleman who is in position to know what
IS going on among the Cuban revolutionists
that an important change has been made in
the command of the liberating army. Gene
raj Cespedes, President of the Cuban Re-
public, has taken the field III person as COM
mandcr of I'LL the forces, and General Jor-
dan, who recently held that position, is made
chief of Cespedes's staff. The editor says
This strengthens the revolutionary
cause by securing General JordaTs valua,
BILE services in Il place where they will all
still be available, While it appeals with fresh
power to the patriotism and pride OF the
CubanS. TO give the chief command OF the
insurgents to Observation-Disclosures that
foreigner is an American and Il soldier OF
great talents-seemed to imply n want OF
military skill among the Cubans themselves,
which prcjudiccd some people against them.
But few expeditions have been able to get
away from the United States ports since
General Jordan took the command, and the
Cubans have been obliged to depend, for
the most part, upon themselves"
