The District Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church closed its business scs-
sion Saturday. But there was large
gathering Of the people from the country
aroundahout, augmented by quite delega-
ton Of the citizens of Lynchbure, to hear
the Revs. Bishop Doggett and DR.. Duncan
preach Sunday. Bishop Doggett preached
in the forenoon from the text, I" God forbid
that l should glory save in the cross OF
Christ" and Dr.. Duncan in the afternoon,
from" Except We repent, yc shall all like
wise perish" Both sermons are highly
spoken of by those who had the pleasure OF
hearing them. Owing to the most singular
occurrence DR.. Duncan had little time tc
prepare his. 1t seems that he attended the
services in the morning without any pre-
vious knowledge of Bishop Doggctt's sc,
lection, and much to his surprise, heard
him read out the same passage Of Scripture
that he had selected as basis for his own
discourse in the afternoon and through
out pursued the same line of reasoning
that had occurred to him. He Of course had
then to drop his sermon entire and prepare
a new cne.-LynchJorg Firginion.

Advice TO the Girls.

Do not imagine that an extra ribbon tied
about the neck can remedy the defect Of q
soiled collar or an untidY dress.
Should your hands be Drowned by labor,
do not envy the lily fingers Of Miss Fuss and
Feathers, whose mother drudges in the kit
chen, while the daughters lounges 10 the
paIlOr.
Should your dress be inconveniently long
and gentleman steps on it, don't be angry,
but meeKly beg his pardon as you ought.
Always cherish partiality for the smell
OF dish water, Il is more conducive to health,
and far less expensive than "banquet."
Should dandy with a cigar between his
fingers asG you il smoking is offensive to
you, tell him emphaticalIy, eyes" The
habit should be, if the odor is not.
Do not judge Of the intelligence OF fe.
male acquaintance by the number OF yards
Of trimming on her dress.
DO not waste your tears on the imaginary
sorrows Of Alonz) and Melissa, nor the trials
or the dime novel herones. Seek rather to
alleviate the woes Of the suffering ones on
earth.

Mr.. Wms j. Jessup.

The New York Democrat gives in its per.
sonal column this appreclatiVe notice Of the
above-named gentleman, which all who know
him can freely endorse:
10 the Labor Congress at Philadelphia, the
name OF Mr.. w. j. Jessup, OF this city, was
brought forward as the principal contestant
with Mr.. Trevellick for the Presidency, but
was defeated. Had he been elected he would
have honored the position and flied the du-
ties most acceptably. Mr.. Jessup is one Of
the leading movers in any enterprise calcu-
lated 10 benefit the working man, and be en-
joys deserved popularity. We are glae he
was complimented with the support Of 50
many Of his fellow laboring men.
The very intelligent correspondent OF the
Tribune intimatcs that the contest for the
Presidency was contest of ideas concern
ing the policy Of the organization, the sue
cessful candidate being decidedly 10 favor Of
distinctive and separate political action.
Tne position Of Nj. j. he represents rs fol-
lows:
He thinks there Is danger that too much
effort will be given to political action, and
too little time used in getting the distinctive
information, &C., by the gathering Of which
the workmen themselves, and the general
public, will most rapidly arrive at knowI-
edge Of "where the shoe pinches," and hav-
ing accurate knO Eledge, be abe 10 apply the
best remedies. In his own movement Mr..
Je,sup shows his appreciation Of the idea
presented, and in his last annual report
gives mass Of most valuable facts upon
the condition Of labor ia New York. The
suggestion is not to prevent political action,
but for the present to subordinate it,, and to
devote most Of the ensuing year to perfect
ing organization, binding all the trades
unions into complete harmony, to gathering
the information suggested in the questions
hereto annexed, and such other matter as is
related to the movement, and lastly, to en-
deavor to make the next Congress better
representative body, first, Of the trades Or
CARNATIONS, and secondly, Of all others d.
rectly related to the same general subject

which divides them. "Magdalene Homes,
| and institutions Of that lk, are not th'
places for the down-trodden they do not
when attempting to recover, want forever
paraded before them the dead past-let tha
be forever ont Of sight, and begin by tell
ing what one may be, not what they hav'
been.
You are right when you say "what We
want is more social intercourse and a more
scholastic union Of the sexes. Men and
women will ever have to be together while
the world exists, and if they were made bet
Ger acquainted with each other than they are
through the Intellectual and scientific attain
ments, there would be, as you say, far less
danger of the animal predominatiOn which
must inevitably sink both male and female
very far lower in the scale Of true man
and womsnhood. Place man and woman
side by side, begir ming at the A B G class,
and give both the same chances in life, an
we shall see . higher state Of society, less
misery and less vice. The idea Of q woman's
Inferiority leaves her less basis. and because
q few have been ridiculed by men because Of
becoming absolutely different in dress, man
ner. etc., it is no reason why al should be
made the martyrs to ignorance and pru-
derry.
My letter is already iong, yet bear with
me, one more sheet. Another, AMI ono Of
far greater import than the Government il
willing to admit, IS the Indian question:. As
existing to day, they are called but q hand
fnl, and yet they defy all the wisd ,m, skill
and foresight of the nation, and in shis nine
teenth century nothing is left but mn expen-
sIve warfare in which nothing was gained
don't propose plan, nor will I weary you
with further suggestions, believing as I do,
that all these points will be wisely deter
mined in your councils, and once fairly be-
fore the people will be wisely AMI jaStly set-
tied. My object is simply TO hold the mir
ror up. We, the people, are said to have the
power, and all the world is looking % ~
even now. Hopes and Iears which had ht-
Tie or no outer expression, have an inward,
silent form, which will catch the spark Of
lioerty and life from the life and form Of
the National Labor Union, outworking M it
must, into the future life AMI power Of thls
nation. And to the bondholder and capital
lst OF to-day, who are now trying 70 sever
tne nation, and make this unfathomable
ABYSS between capital aud labor, We can and
Will say that they have become 50 trsnspa-
rent to US, to the laboring classes, that we
nave no longer lear or respect for them.
Iney knew not they were being weighed in
q balance, but they will know ere long that
sney are found wanting the power which
their selishness has driven far beyond their
reach.
Your friend aud CO worker,
