CHRISTIAN CONFERENCE IN INDIANA.
The Southern Wing Which Seeded In
1854 Restored to Fellowship
I4Y telegraph 70 the Dlspatch.l

CHICAGO, October 10.-A dispatch from
Marion, Ind, SAYS: At the session of the
Christian Conference yesterday the south
ern wing of the Church, which seeded at
the Cincinnati convention held in 1854,
was restored. The condition OF the re-
turn of the southern people having been
agreed TO, an informal and hearty greet
ing was extended to the erring brothers
while the congregation sung "Blest be
the tie that binds" A touching feature
of this part of the exercises was
the introduction TO the convention
of Mrs. DR.. Summerbell, the widow Of one
of the pioneers of the Church, who was
the first president of its first college. Mrs.
Summerpell, in her feeble way, welcomed
the southern delegates back to the fold,
and assured them of the sympathy and
hearty goodwill of the North.
TEARS PLENTIFUL.
There was scarcely dry eye in the house
when this only survivor present of the
convention of 1854 took her seat. DIR, II.
]. Duckworth, president of the General
Council of the Christian Union. declared
that his sect was rapidly merging itself
with the Christian Church, and that here
after his time and talents should be de-
voted TO II.

TON, CENTRAL AND Sc

From the Atlanta Constitution
GREENvILLE, S. c., November 90.
An effort is being made to cstab-
lish a new county in this State. 1t
is to be made Of parts of Anderson,
Pickens and Oconec counties, the
proposed site of the Clemson Agri-
cultural College, and the old home
stead of John c.. Calhoun. n large
land company is being organized,
with q view to purchasing the land
around the new depot, which has
just been located, and to lay off and
build a town there. A postoficc has
just been established, to be called Fort
Hill, with Mrs. w. T.. Carey as post
mistress. The proposed county is to
be about twenty miles square, and
will embrace the towns Of Pendlcton,
Central and perhaps Seneca City, rs
well as some of the most fertile
farming lands in the State. The
matter will be brought before the
present State Legislature, and pushed
as rapidly as possible.

that he was willing that Hampton
saau.a spend the remainder Of his.
life in the Senate, and he cannot be
spared from the Office of Governor
until his Wnrk has been scaom-
plished.N
Please allow me to correct an er-
rorS into which you have fallen. AT
Aiken the minister who opened the
meeting with prayer paid an eloquent
and touching tribute to Senator
Hampton in which I heartily con-
CURED, and when l began my speech,
after abiding to the prayer, I spoke
as follows 4: 81 can even 90 further
than this, and could pray that Sena-
tor Hampton might die in tho Uni
ted States Senate, but he has no
business taking part in this family
quarrel between Democrats"
Those were my sentiments at tho
time and l never, expected to change
them, but Senator Hampton in that
Aiken speech had offended his audi
ence very deeply by a broad intima-
ton that the State was in danger of
Mahoneism from me and my friends.
Since then one Of his friends has
actually played Malone as far as he
was able, and she Senator had only
words of praise and commentator for
him, and while l have nothing to do
with the Senatorial election and do not
expect to allow the use of my namo
as q candidate for the Senate, l no
longer have such feelings as l had at
Aiken, and our Senator, if not cleo
ted, can attribute his defeat to his
own acts. b. II. TILLMAN.
INDIGNANT AT SENATOR BUTLER.
Senator Butler spent yesterday
and part of to-day in the city look
ing after the interest of Senator
Hampton. Ho approached many
members, but without the slightest
success. lie is said to have asked
the Edgeficld delegation: "What
do you fellows mean? Surely you
don't intend to throw Hampton
out ?"
The reply was: "No, we don't in
tend to throw him out, but when the
election comes ho'l have to CO."
They seemed to be indignant at
the interference Of Senator Butler,
and one said that he had better look
out for himself.
The Senator left to-day for his
home in Edgeficld, and it is stated
that he will make no further inter-
ference, but go on to Washington in
a few days.
a gentleman OH the streets this
morning offered to bet $3.50 that
Hampton would be elected. 1t is
certainly to be hoped that such will
be the case.---Co lumbi0 Record, No

n is iniimatcd that The contest for the

Pennsylvania IL likely 10 be a contest for
the supremacy Of the friends Of Cleveland
on the friends Of Hill, rs preliminary
skirmish for the Presidential nomination in
1892
IL IL estimated also that Democratic pc
litical leaders are making the tubernaiorial
battle with the view Of controlling the pat
rOnagc Ofthe next President "a Democrat
rather than with the view Of clecting Gov
ernOr.
10 would be well for leaders who are M
yOlNcd In any such movements not % borrow
Presidential troubles just now. Besides,
there couldn't De any greater waste Of time
and effort. II au ayOwcd Cleveland man
were nominated for Governor. 10 wouldn't
put Cleveland a whit nearer The nomination
in 1902 and II an ayOwcd Nili man were
nominated. 10 wouldn't give Hill the shadow
OF chance for the national nomination.
The next Democratic candidate for Fresl-
dent won't be- decided by the success or de-
feat of any faction I'm Pennsylvania. If the
occasion shall call for Cleveland, solid
delegation against him from this state
wouldn't make a ripple i'm the strife, ana
solid delegations for Hid from both New

ing Of the conference was dssipated long
ago. II was clearly recognized 20 be more
or less scheme Of certain interests That
we've anxious 20 obtain the assistance Of
the national government in supporting lines
Of steamships between ports in 'he United
states and South America. At the same
time. the membership OF the conference has
entitled il 10 respect, for this membership
is undoubtedly composed Of the best per
sonal elements Of the different countries
represented.
II the conference was really brought to-
cciber simply 10 subserye a job, the men
who took part in il were probably unaware
Of IL. In their visit 20 the South. therefore,
they should be shown all those public az
tontion~ which they deserve as men Of high
standing and great influence in the coun-
tries from which they come. They are dis
tinguished strangers whoaro about TO throw
themselves upon She Kindness Of our people.
and this il sufficient reason in itself why
they should De received in manner worthy
of their individual position and Of southern
reputation for hospitality.
SO far as Virginia is concerned it is TO be
regretted taat they viii not be taken through
those sections of the Commonwealth that
furnish the greatest number of objects OF
interest. Their journey shonld have been
so laid on that they would have passed
down the Valley and through the southwest
aud thence by wayof the James river valley
10 Richmond. and subsequently 20 Norfolk.
This was probably too extensive pro-
gramme for one State. Richmond, however,
is definitely included in the course Of the
journey Of the members Of the conference
through the south. In this city hospiia-
BILE welcome will be extended to them, all
the more complimentary because it Will De
entirely free from any motive as TO deriving
some practical benefit from their visit
