YESTERDAYS SERVICES.
TIE CoNrEREScE MEETING
commenced at o'clock III the morning. after
everything had bccn cleaned up. The Michigan
Aycnuc Church tent Inns been devoted to this
purpose since tho opening. md though there
arc some foreign elements scattered around, In
tho shape Of pots aud pans md kettles mud
skirts, there Ii plenty OF room, and tic meetings
have been largely Intended. Some minister Is
detailed to keep tic proceedings in the grove,
hut The timo is given up to tho brethren and
sisters, who avail themselves Of the opportunity
to win souls by tho confession OF their own c1-
pertnecs. This is tho very essence Of camp
meeting. Tho regular services 60 called, are
the sau.c tim! are held III every church every
Sunday, aud while they nro necessary md &C
eeptablc, yet the conference meeting Is the fea-
ture Of tho expedition. The exquisite enjoy
1nent extracted from It hy those who attend
teaches the reasons for the camp-tnectipE, and
accounts for the interest manifested In that
style OF worship go peculiar to ule Mcthodists.
Tho Rev. s. II. Adams led the meeting yestcr-
day morning, and, utter word Of encourage
mcnt to those present to como forward with Ill
their hearts, he prayed fur them, md then
handed tho meeting over to The peope haefs nn
told OF his own conversion. He went to
praycr-meeting once, where ho wins seized with

The Wealth of Brazil,

All intelligent travellers who have
visited Brazil speak in the most glowing
terms of the country. Prof. Agassiz
regarded it as the most productive and
interesting country on the globe, and
the one in which it is the easiest to
obtain a livelihood. Some who have
sailed up the Amazon declare that a
vessel can be loaded with Brazil nuts at
an expense of only a few cents per
bushel. These constitute valuable ar
ticle of commerce, while the oil extract
ed from them is very desirable. All the
tropical fruits are produced in Brazil
almost without cultivation. The soil in
many parts of the country will produce
twenty successive crops of cotton, to-
bacco, or sugar cane, without the APP
plication of manure. No country in the
world approaches the land of Dom
Pedro in the variety of forest produc-
tions. Prof. Agassiz states that he saw
III different kinds of valuable woods
that were cut from a piece of land not
half mile square. They represented
almost every variety of color, and many
of them were capable of receiving high
polish. One tree furnishes wax that is
used for candles; another a pith that is
used for food; and still another yields
a juice which is used in the place of in
toxicating liquor. There is a single
variety of palm from which the natives
obtain food, drink, clothing, bedding,
cordage, fishing tackle, medicine, and
the material they manufacture into
dwellings, weapons, harpoons and
musical instruments. Doubtless the
