TAgEE HAS been an unusual fatality
amongst the ministers Of the Whining
ton Conference during the month o.
March. Rev. L. &. Irwin residing IL
this city, though LIE had not been il
the active itineracy fer eighteen
months before on account OF i'll health
died March 18th. Rev. John llough
Presiding Elder Of the Dover District
died suddenly in Trenton, n. j., OF
Thursday morning, to which place he
had zone to spend a few days with his
brother after the adjournment of. the
Wilmington Conference at..New Castle
The third was Rev. Thomas J. Williams
late castor Of Millington Church, Kent
county, Nd, who came to New Castle
to attend Conference, and being taken
dangerously i'll OF Brights disease, died
on Saturday evening. Tn. remains OF
both Mr.. Hough and Mr.. Williams are
to be inferred at Smyrna, Mr.. Iough
to-day and Mr.. Williams Tomorrow. Al
Of the deceased preachers we're about
the same age. Mr.. Irwin, aged so
being the youngest, and the ether trc
being about So. 1t is said that as ,
general tnin3 come ono OF the active
ministers dies every year soon after the
meeting OF Conference, owing it i.
thought to tho crowded state Of th'
place Of meeting, and want Of prope!
ventilation. If this be the Gaze, it be
comes of the greatest Importance tha
the Conference should meet in healthy
localities and in buildings well veLtI
lated.

Tn. LEGISLATURE at its session just
closed passel thrty.one divorce
bills, thereby making sixty-two people
violate the solemn VOWS they had
taken upon themselves before God to
love and cherish each other until death.
If the Legislature Of Pennsylvania at
Harrisburg had divorce as many
at one session in prop rtion to the pop
ulation, the number would be over one
thousand. A divorce court would have
been a more proper name for the body
