BRO. COBB: Our Conference has just closed. Peace and harmony prevailed throughout the entire session. All the ministers seemed deeply imbued with the spirit of Christ, and consecrated to the great work of Christianity. Bishop Paine is evidently a great and good man. He is Bishop in the chair, Bishop in the pulpit, and Bishop at the altar. He conducted the proceedings of Conference with kindness, dignity, and efficiency. We love him, and can scarcely refrain from turning our inkstands upon him in commendation of his greatness and goodness. May he long live-an efficient officer in the Church, and a faithful preacher of the Word. J. S. MCALISTER, Secretary.

XIII. MEMPHIS.

BISHOP KAVANAUGH.-Nov. 14–21.

The Sixteenth Annual Session met in Memphis, Tenn. Bro. Guilford Jones, Secretary. The editor of the Memphis Christian Advocate says:

We have merely time to remark, that the session of Conference was a peaceful and harmonious one. The stand which it took in relation to the subject of class-meetings was truly Methodistic, and indicative of a disposition on the part of the body to cleave steadfastly to our disciplinary usages. The impression produced by Bishop Kavanaugh on the Conference, the Church, and the community, will tell for the interests of Methodism for a long time to come. Fine missionary collections were taken up at both of the churches. At Asbury, over $1300 were raised with an enthusiasm which we never saw equalled.
