SPECIAL NOTES.

SPECIAL NOTES.
Your correspondent would take this
occasion to tender few explanatory
remarks: 1t may have been noticed
that the reports of the several Presiding
Elders were not given equal attention
in the reports sent you, and the espes
cial mention would be called to the
brevity OF the notice made Of Presiding
Elder Webb's report Mr.. Webbs ex-
hibit Of the affairs in his district was
quite as lengthy, quite as comprehen'
sive, and fully as satisfactory as any
other; but it was presented at a time
when the reporters were most taxed for
time; and it is fact patent to all who
pay the least attention to the work,
that when q reporter once passes a
point in the proceedings, it is quite i'm
possible to 60 back and get anything
like a satisfactory note oil any business
he is thus compelled to neglect, espe-
| cially when he is required las were we)
to close his report Tin order to meet the
mails) simultaneously with the close OF
the business Of the session. We trust
this is sufficient to explain all such ir-
regularities as that noted especially in
this paragraph.
A large meeting in the interest OF
temperance was held at the Methodist
Church, Rev. ]. Gregory, pastor, this
afternoon. The principal speaker was
Rev. NJ. P. Gaddis, whose intimate
connection with the temperance move
ment, has been heretofore alluded to,

length to which this report has
already attained, 10 make further al
fusion to this CT other outside matters.

1t is possible that Conference will ad-
journ Monday, at IL NJ, but when the

otherwise, especially as it is demonstra-
ted here that Large bodies move slow
