SMYRNA, DEL, March IS.
Three bishops we're present at the opening of
Conference this morning Bishop Wiley arriving
yesterday. He comes to warm UP the people on
the mission interests Of or church, and is fully
competent to 60 the work.
When the
coIIEoE EEPoRTs
were read, the Wesleyan was pronounced in a
good condition. Twelve young ladies' num-
bered the last graduating class. The report of
Dickinson rehearsed ot considerable length the
history Of the late college difficulties, putting
things in sOmewhat different aspect to what
was generally understood of said lumentable at
fair. Dr. McCaulley spoke handsomiy of the
recent appointments to the chairs made vacant
by recent designations, and of the great revival
recently closed.
The call of the Conference Stewards was next
made, and collections handed in. Many minis
tiers spoke of the
EMBARRASSING CIRCUMSTANCES
under which they lifted their collections, owing
principally to the inclemencies of most of the
winter Sabbaths, but iii the main the collections
are good. With regard to the distribution OF
these funds there occurred SPICY debate. They
are designed for necessitous cases, but it was
claimed, that in some instai ces this distribution
is not guaged by wisest rHies. In the course of
his remarks, Mr.. Mann stated he was never hap
pier than when in trouble therefore, il his pres
ent structure involved him in trouble they would
only greatly increase his happiness.
The supernumeraries- Hubbard. Way, Cooper,
Bell, Burton, Esgate and Humphries were con
tinned. Father lIumphries made some very
feeling remarks. He has preached so sermons
during the year, and was never happier than
now. These men are physically disabled for eff
fective service, and may justly claim the DEF pest
sympathes of the church. Tie supefannnated
are entirely and hopelessly disabled. There are
very few of these in our conference.
HENRY SUTTON Is HopELEssLY INSANE
in Harrisburg, Pa. James L. Houston, another
superannuate who was forced into this relation
at the close of the last Conference session, made
some remarks that indicated his depth OF sorrow
at being compelled to retire from effective SER
vice. His case was laid over for the present.
His is case that deserves the unfegned sym
pathies of our people as well as preachers. He
has long served the church.
Our session is progressing very pleasantly, not
a single arraignment for improper conduct, not
a single difficulty, las occurred. And the CON
ference is being

discover a single instance in which Bowl
ing Green has complied with her promises
to the people Of the county. When need
ing the votes of the people, she has been
free with her promises, but in what in
stance has she fulfilled them? AS another
illustration of her bad faith, We wish to
remind the people of the county of her
pledge, prior to the former vote OH removal,
that she would construct stone road
from Bowling Green to Toledo. If our
recollection is not at fault, she had engin-
GERS make preliminary survey of the route,
atate the distance, and estimate the cost,
the whole having been prepared for the
purpose Of deceiving voters and obtaining
their favor for the removal of the county
seat from Perrysburg to Bowling Greer.
The estimates of cost were all fixed up
under the direction of certain parties at
Bowling Green, aud placed 30 low that
many persons we're led to believe that
such road could and would be built.
With the prospect OF this thoroughiare
connecting them with the county scat and
with the Toledo market, many persons in
Webster and Troy townships were induced
to vote for Bowling Green, in the belief
that her success would insure them Me-
Adamized road to Toledo. After thus Civ
ing Bowling Green all she asked, the peo-
pie expected her to fulfill the promises up
on which their votes for removal we're OBJ
tanned. As in all other cases, however,
she has utterly failed to even attempt
compliance with her agreement. Her citi-
Gems could not even be induced to offer the
least assistance towards the construction of
road. She now asks the men whom she
then deceived to vote for her ogain-to sac
rifce their convenience AMI interests to
continue in her possession that which she
obtained through false promises.
