METHODIST CENTENARY.
Continuation of the Conference at BaIIi-
more.

BALTIMORE, Dec. 11.-Bishop Alpheus w
Wilson, of the M. g. Church South, occupied
the chair at this mornings session OF the
Methodist centennial conference. A large
assemblage of spectators listened to the pro-
ceedings, which began at $50.
Rev. A. s. Hunt of the American Bible So
ciety lead the prayer. Rev. j. Hill offered q
resolution calling for a grand temperance de-
monstration during the sitting of the council.
Referred
Rev. @. B. Galloway presented resolution
that the gates Of the New Orleans exposition
should be closed on Sunday.
The special order at 1890 was review of
the superintendency of Asbury, and what it
did for Methodism. An essay was read BY
Colonel w. s. Thompson, for the venerable
DR.. Boring, on the subject. A paper was also
read on the relations of Wesley to American
Methodism. General discussion followed.
In his essay DIR. Boring said that the Meth
odists Of America could never fully appreciate
the great work OF Asbury in this country. He
had to labor against prejudice, hardship and
the evils that beset the pioneer, but he pressed
nobly forward, and the result of his labors has
grown to the gigantic proportions we see
around us to-day. He believed that the Lord
had commissioned him, and fred with the zeal
which the love of truth and desireto save
souls begets he eYiDced that heroism that
knows no failure.
At l D. N. the conference took recess until
SPIN.
At tho AFTERNOON SESSION papers on otatlSt-
cal results and membership and "Educa-
tional and financial atatistics" we're read
respectively by Rev. Daniel Dorchester and
Rev. s. II. Carlisle.
