Holston Conference of the NJ. E. church.
FOURTH DAY.

| The Conference was opened at the usuf
| hour this morning with appropriate reli-
gious services, after which many items OF
| interest to the work of the church in the
bounds of the Conference were disposed of.
| Various reports of committees were pre-.
sented. Most of the committees reported
| to-day. Many of them would be very in
| teresting to your readers, if space could g
given them. But these reports will ap-
pear in the a" Minutes in pamphlet form,
| and those wishing to read them can be
supplied at very small cost, by applying
to the preachers. sHas .a
These Methodist preachers are alive to
all to all the interests of the country as
we'll as those pertaining to the Immediate
interests of this branch of the church.
The reports show that the Methodist Epis-
copal Church in East Tennessee is in a
healthy, growing condition. Allwho will
read the reports as made can see that this
branch of the church is stronger to-day, in
every sense, than ever before in the bounds
of the Conference. ~ - =
The ministry evince stronger determl-
nation to tUOrk for God and humanity.
The statistics show an actual member
ship of %, $40 Ard of this number u ,4o0
are white, which showing refutes the idea
of few misinfOrmed who seems to think
this Conference has but little strength
among the active, growing people of len
nessee. 20"
