Asking and Entreating. ■.

To ask, to entreat I How different are they in their letter and in their spirit. Indeed entreating: cannot bo done in the letter. it must, at least, be surcharged with the spirit of him who asks, and asks, and asks again,'and iriaiBts upon being heard, and pleads for that which he desires, till utterly lost to himself in it all, bo fairly is but a spirit in liis importunity, though most really llesh and blood.

To ask, is tbo common right which God gives us all. It has no law to hinder given by God, unless it be that implanted in ourselves, which "should lead us to lemomber, refer to, and noi, intrude upor, the individuality of

. another, any more than wo would wish them to thruBt themselves carelessly, intrusively, or in any wav improperly upon us, in our real personal selves. God is God ; and as such to be respect­ed, referred to, inquired of, with rev- ererico—no more to be pissed by than passed carolessly by'; and this spirit, which gives God personality, place and individualism—a real individual life, so to speak, should govern all asking. It is one thing to know that

’ there is God in all your thoughts, to move out with reference to that mighty fact, and another, to go even in that way and with that spirit that belongs to a porsonal recognition of Him, as one who baa the right to refuse to listen, as well ns to hear the requests that arc preferred to him, and to feel himself, as you never could feel yourself, to be intrusively and irreverently upproachcd and addressed^

The great and mighty God should bo reverently, lovingly approached with that which you would prefer to Him aa request, or that of which you would desire to know. And though He ia ever ready to hear and answer, and can hear and know all our need of answer as none other can, yet that very fact of His greatness and wisdom, His fuln in love, His understanding of all t' is, and is moat of all to bo desired, not for you alone, but you as related to all others, should make the asking any­thing of God, a matter of some moment, to be entered upon'with, some gather­ing of ourselves together as though we were the ones, to receive rather what H e'sees 'it Is best to give, than .to dictate and insist upon all that we short-sightedly may know, or deem

. we know to be our personal-need.Whatever is to b's asked, of God

should never, be careleisly asked, Whatever we desire of Him, it should be remembered, that we tire but limited ip our knowledge of time or persons, or of possible or coming events

, find no circiSmspeetion in asking can be out o f place or inconsistent with

' our; being called upon toexprees all our hearts desire, in the.asking; that is

prayer. True asking, will, however, never fail io be reverent ih its requests, for the God of the whole earth and of the heavens is the one we approach,— and it will be careful in i«> asking that it agaumCB naught therein, putting no air of authorship or authority into its requests. It is not too much to re­member that tho Father always knows, before we ask, the things that we have need of—all the thoughts- -and that the same God was a ll who bade us ask, he taught- us in the prayer that Jesus gave, Hia disciples, the manner of our coming.. Heavers, before earth.—Our Father who art in heaven. Hia name before onr requests—Hallowed be ;Thy name. H is kingdom ere we have reached so persona! matter for which wo might desire audience. Thy kingdom cumo. Hia will, and no mention, savo in broad and all-comprehensive fulness with the a ll need of heaven and earth, has yet been made directly of yourself—Thy will bo done in earth as it is ih heaven. And then the petition bursts its mighty generalism, which is God's individual­ism, and we have bur daily bread, our debts forgiven, our hot being led into trial and our deliverance from1 evil, put upon the lips taught truly to pray—ail that one eould desire or really need.

This is tho key to the spirit pf alt asking. It has ever a . remembrance that there are hostB beside us-who have place, and right, anilStare with oar God the Father in heaven, to whom we pray, and a holding ever tq H is own personal being as certainly as to our own, while we offer tip our Requests unto Him. This :s the spirit of all true asking and all that makes it tolerable in the cars of God. ’A nd’it should - abate much of the prying unto Him and change the manner thereof, until those who,ask, have ‘as. it were gathered,their garments together and made true submissive obedience before H im who holdsout to all, H is sceptre, of Kingly, and Fatherly, invitation. Is it wise even then to powr out'all that is in ae, in askings Bpecial and particular, till wo have heard him say, with whom Vo sup, what is thy request fur it shall bo granted thee, even unto the half of my kingdom?

This is to bo the spirit of asking—not the bowing down before a King alone or simply, but the recognition of God the Father as becomes the children of one so truly-Father, but equally the King of kings. Real asking belongs rathpr to' the waiting before God that Ho may show you your true need, than to that continually preferring, unto- Him of requests that had better never have been made; ignoring as they do and calling.in question, both in their, letter and in their spirit,, the in finite Fatheriinesa'and ksvingnesa and care Of the great I am, as though He whose thoughts toward us art- more than can be numbered, never thought unless you thought, am! thought to ask,

But ail true asking as it takes real form has in it one element, that gives ii its real power and makes its spirit the true spirit of prayer. God as the only way of deliverance as with .Esther, who e life could only be. saved by the decree of the king, whose peoples dooin could only be, reversed by his action and: immediate interposition. The hand that signed the decree is destroy could only sigh the decree that would save, and that king’s heart God held in His hand to' turn as the rivers- of waters':, ere i turned. • Hero it vs that asking becomes, entreating and rises lo the desperate earnestness which loees. self in the greatvolume of ita intensity and outpouring and here have we the request, that: becoming entreaty, in' never turned aside without fuli recog­nition and unmistakable reply.

The Aposflo Paul’s thrice repeated petition Is not answered, but a reason all sufficient is given him therefor. Either this will be the case or abetter answer, than your own prayer answer­ed would be, will come pouring in upon you,as wben to thuaamo Apostle desiring to be accursed from Christ for hia brethren, there was given that en­largement, of .vision which saw, that, as

the rejection of tho Jew was the salva-. tmon of the Gentile, so the fulness o f the Gentiles would bring the ingather­ing of hie kinsmen according, to the flesh. ' ’; ’

Jesus, when with strong crying, aupplieation and tears, He prayed to God, was heard. It was reverent entreaty that provided; and such ia always answered—always answered by the coming, or by the sending of God. It is no matter though this crying; had in it all yourself, as when Peter’sinking cried " Lord savo or I p e r i s h o r the the loss of self in another, as when the woman of Canaan said "Have mercy on nie, my daughter is greviously vexed in any cry of dietress, a cry that Is real and all absorbing, no matter what it is, tbat entreaty will never go by the ears of God, without a full response to the crying one,. For however God may hide Him self away .from the asking that is not in .’accord with the best for all, H e never can, He neyer did, He never will, fly upon less than the wings of the wind, .when a real asking has beer, wrought , up to where the Whole spirit erics, entreatihg, even’ though:tbe coming be to the entreating one, nob alwayB in the blessing he has sought.

Spiritual Priesthood.

BY REV. J . S, LAME.

‘ Ye also are a holy priesthood to offer up spiritual sacrifices.” ’’ The law having a shadow of good things to come.” A shadow is a shade produced by an object’ standing between the ob­server and the light. The .typical char­acter of the.Levitica! priesthood is uni­versally conceded. The more minutely we examine the moro thoroughly will we bo convinced of the elegance of the imagery and beauty of the type.

Brother, if God finds and furnishes thetypo will you print your Christian character from it? From the type fur­nished what is the print spoiled out? The priest must be clothed, “ that thy nakedness do not appear.” Nakedness, or the, unclothed state, stands in the Bible aa a striking representation of a destitution of saving; grace. Hence in' Revelation you read, “ Buy of me white raiment, .that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness.do not appear.!’ The priests were not allowed to make s heir own garmentr Domestic goods—garments, of home manufacture represent se lf righteousness, which in, God’s sight is filthy rags. How can we whose-touch is pollution make garments whose glory, and’beauty will attract and entrance the eye of God, They must be made accord­ing-to the pattern ahownaon the mount. They were to be glorious and beautiful.

For glory and for beauty.” . The pen of the post has beautified this thought—

“ Jesus, thy blood a n d righteousness M S beauty arc, my glorious dress," &c.

The Ephod was fastened on the s’houl- de'rs by a buckle or a clasp, covered'by nn.anyx stoue.stnd on each stone was. engraved the names of six of the twelve tribes of Israel. These names the priest was ever to carry on his shoulders. The breast plate, or pectoral, was a gorgeous ornament of gold end precious stones, and on the face of each stone was en­graved one of the twelve tribes of Israel. All this was beautifully and brilliantly emblematical. The names of the tribes were first put in their associate capaci ty on . the shoulders of the priests. The shoulders being .the symbol of power, telling us that God’e children occupy the place of power, and are protected by I power—that, they have a place on tho shoulder® of Omnipotence, a posi­tion frorh which God can strike destruc­tion to every asault and every assailant, But the names have another position. They wero worn on the heart, the type of love, the seat of the affections. Bower and love united; engraved—not writ-’ ten with pen and ink that pales, Or that accumulated dust may obscure, but cut iti the: enduring'stone. Jehovah sav.' their names only through the dazzle of diamonds and on tho heart of the high priest.

A lady was walking along the street when she saw a little child sitting on a

door step. There was nothing peculiar about the child, tit wns neither of extra­ordinary beauty, nor dressed in the tip o f fashion, that it should attract the attention of passers by. But the lady glanced, and that glance fixed her atten­tion. As she gaxed there wfca an inward, emotion, ?. tale-teDing teitr stole out the eye..; What could St moan ? , I don't, know;, I can only conjec ture. I con­jecture, that lady was-a mother, or had been, and When she saw that, little oho ,it was a reminder of a little one for away, cold and dead : o f a little bright­eyed fair-haired . child of beauty that made home happy and a mother merry; then Che remembered the sick chamber an d . the death, scene ; the coffin, the shroud, the funeral and the cemetery. I suppose she saw all this in that glance,, That living child sat as a representative andreminderof the distant and deceased child.

Ah, brother, there is nothing in you, ‘nothing iri me, to commend us to the. grace of God, but ho nooks at us in our poverty and wrOUSjedness, and- then remembers his Child, his Son—his only Son. his much-beloved Son, who for our sake becamo poor. People sometimes say, “ What can. any person see in that ragged.little urchin to love?” Wbat can they see? A mother can see a gem, a jewel, a child o f her love, a dar­ling.

A little boy playing in asaw-miil was caught in the whirr and whirl of a cir­cular saw and sawed to pieces. A sight most fearful to ’behold, am inute tleserip tion would sicken. H e w o t an unrecog­nizable, mangled, mutilated.mass, But how did he appear to his mother’s eyes. Let this funeral notice testify :'• Another sweet flower hss wUherod,

Who baa said let lt corns uaas mo, . ." Tbo angols arc hovering atroasd b!m,

Singing welromo, wetoosto we come;They bavo irboa tfcc gsmlrom the casket,’

tils dear iiUJesptatoigone homo."To her that mutilated form was a

“ flower.” That body mashed, into a jolly was a “gem .” The world snay look on a believer and cee nothing hut a com m on. laborer. Jesus looks and sees a child of God, an heir of immor­tality a thing of beauty and a joy for- over.

0 1 am glad with a godly gladness that God thinks better of me than I think myself,andhospity on my infirm­ities, '* for he knoweth pur frame, he rememberetli that we are weak.

A Negativa Creed.

The instinct of skepticism is a little like the instinct o f hunting, there is more or less of it in every human being. Many a man enters upon ihe, pursuit, not that he cares for the game—not; that he wishes to prove that there is no God; not that he would satisfy; himself that he ia nothing going nowhere, but; for the enjoyment, the zest of the pursuit. To a brave man tho keenest intellectual pleasure comes from what; be calia’the pursuit of truth—the hunting of truth to: its la ir; the attempt to measure the ways, and perhaps the thought of the first ’cause. But “ My thoughts are not your, thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord,” and-if. the man gets bewildered and loss, and at last seems to himseSf to be nothing, gone nowhere,.he has arrived at a con-; elusion or a destinationithat he did not seek to arrivo a?, in the' beginning,:<k conclusion and a destination thiit is far from being eatlsiactory. Lives there a skeptic that down deep in hit. own heart would not believe in the simplest forms o f Christianity if he could ?, The saddest, the moat pathetic utterances, aro the utterances of men who with tho farthest and subtlest reach of thought grasp only negatives. A men ’can no more live on negatives than he can live on etones; a negative creed is the creed of death.—Prof. Borden P. Bownc,

Mature Against.Skepticism. .. .. If I were in danger of becoming sleep-,

tical, I believe that a fresh and vivid appreciation of the scientific revelations concerning our globs would appal rat: into faith. To think of . this ball’whirl­ing’end spinning about the suit; and to be an atheiet: its covering leas in com­parative thickness than a peach akin, arid its pulp a seething fire, arid to feel that we are at tho mercy of the forces that lash it lib a top around the eclip­tic, and of the raying flames that, heave and beat for vpnt ; not more than an eighth of its surface inhabitable by m ati; Seas roaring around him,, tropic heats smiting his. brain., polar frost threatening hit1 blood, intend airs laden with fever, sea winds charged with con­sumption ;■ hurricanes hovering-, in the sky, earthquakes slumbering.under our feet; the conditions o f life dependent on the moot delicate oscillations Of sav­age powers, over, which the wisest man is as powerless as a worm—to think, of

tea and not to have m y confidence' or iiie fiii a power superior to .these;,piti-

lesa forces, .tot to have an inspiring faith that the land was made for human habitations and experience, and is shel­tered by a ceaa^eee love .from the hun­ger of tho elem ents! Why, I could'as easily conceive of a person making hia home unconcerned In an.'uricaged menagerie, os ’of a ' man’ at’ reet in nature, seeing what it' is, and not feel- ing that it is embosovu'sd in,God I , GO to nature, niy brother; go to the an-. roofed universe;.go to the awful pages of soienee, not to learn your religion,’ but to learn your need of it—to learn that you are homeless without thesense of God as overarching you by hiH power; pledging hie ear i to you, twisting the furious forces of immensity into a pro­tecting tent for your spirit’s home

The apostle Peter, in his second epis- tie, announced tho approach of the time when “ the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat; the earth also, end the works that’ are therein shall .be burned up.” What has modern science to say to tho- possibility of a catastrophe such as that shadowed forth in a comparatively unscientific age, eighteen centuries ago? Mr. R. A. Proctor, writing in 'hia latest volumo— ‘‘ The Flowers of tho Sky,” remarks: “ It is no longer a mere fancy that each star is a sun,—science has made this an assured fact;Whiehnoaatronomer thinks of doubting. Wo know tlmt in certain- general respects each star resembles our sun; Each is glowing likeour suri with an intense heat. We know that in each star, processes resembling . in Violence those taking placo in our own suri muBt be continually in progress; and that such processes must be accompanied by a noise and tumult, compared with which all the forms of uproar known upon our. earth are an absolute silence. The crash of the thunderbolt, the bel­lowing of tho volcano, the awful groan­ing of the earthquake, tbo roar of the hurricune, the rovorborating pealB of loudest thunder, any of these, or all combined, are as nothing compared with the tumult raging over every square mile, every square yard of the surface of each 'one among the stars.”

Ho proceeds to describe,’• with consid­erable circumstantiality, two appear­ances witnessed in the heavens within the last lew years—in I860, whcn a tenth magnitude star (that is, four magnitudes below the lowest limit of the tsuked eye vision) in the constellation c f the North­ern Crown suddenly ehofs*, os a second magnitude star, afterward rapidly dim­inishing in lustre; and in 187(5, when a new star became visible in the constel­lation Cygrius, subsequently fading again so as to be only perceptible by means of a teleaeope.’- After: noting the 'ddiiclneions deduced ft am the applica­tion of the most improved instruments to these observations, Mr. Proctor, whoso authority, ir-second to none, remarks: " A' change in.; our own sun. Such ’ as affected the star o f Cygnus, or that other star in the Northern Crown, would unquestionably destroy every’ living creature on'the face of this earth ; nor could any even escape which may .exist on the Other planets of the solar system. The star in the Northern Crown shone out with more than oighthundred times Us former lustre; the star in Cygnus with from five hundred :to manyThou­sand times its former lustre, according as we take the highest poaaible estimate of.its brightness before the catastrophe,

or consider that it may have been very much brighter. Now if our sun were to increase tenfold in brightness, all tho higher forms of animal-life) and nearly all sormB of vegetable life, would inev­itably bo destroyed on this earth. A few stubborn animalcules might sur­vive, and, possibly, a few of the lowest forms of vegetation, but naught else. If the aun increased a hundred-fold in iuatre his heat would doubtless sterilize tho whole earth. Thesamewould hap­pen in other planets. Soienee knows nothing of spontoneous generation, and believers in revelation reject the doc­trine. Science knows nothing of the creation of living forms, but believers in revelation accept tho doctrino, Cer­tain it that if our sun ever undergoes tho baptism of fire vhich baa affected some few among his brother suns, one nr tho other of these processes (if crea­tion can be cnlled a process) must come into operation, or olse ’oiir earth and its companion worlds would forever after remain devoid o f life.”—Sunday Haga-

Ih s Prophet Isaiah on Drunkards.What a terrible picture is given by

Isaiah away back in his time of the wine bibbers. “Woe to tho crown of pride (Samaria and its valley), to the drunkards of Ephraim, whoso glorious beauty is ot a fading (lower. They shall bo trodden under foot; they have erred through wine, and through strong drink are thoy out of the way; the priest and the prophet havo erred through strong drink, and thoy are swallowed up of wine, they err in Vision, they stumble' in judgment. How all tables are full of vomit and .filthiness, so that there is no place clean.” What a picture! How true-even, in our day! Again, “Ye havo said, we have made a covenant. ..with death. and with hell wo are at an agreement; when the overflowing scourge Bhnll pass through it shall not conie unto us. Thorofore thus saith the Lord God, Behold your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement'.with; hell shall ('fio t; stand, when tho overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. From the time that .’it goeth forth it shall take you, for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night; and it shall bo a vexation,” '

I know that somo .people aro fond of talking about ‘tdcath bed evidences.” They will rest on words spoken in the hours of fear and pain, and weakness, as ii they might take comfort in. them about tho friends thoy lose, But I am afraid in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred, such evidences nro not to be depenued.on, I suspect men generally die juBt aa they have .lived. The only safe evidence that you aroone in Christ- and Christ in you is a holy life.

Pleaso noto (ho wisli expressed in ono of our specials for a small furnished cottage for July and August.

Rov. Joseph Asbbrook, having taken a ■ supernumerary relation, will reside hereafter in Burlington, N. J.

The election of Gen. Fisk to repre sent tho New Jersey Conference nt Cincinnati ns a lav delegate is highly creditable to tho body who elected him, and an honor to the Conference.

The Windsor people aro pleased with the appointment of Rev. Wm. Frank­lin as the pastorot the M. E. Church in

. that place. His son, Dr. Franklin, is a successful practitioner in Windsor.

Persons looking for eligible Ocean Grove lots will find quite a number of­fered in this paper by Mr. Willisford Dey, real estate agent, Asbury Park. By looking nt the map, exact location of lots may bo found, nnd for terms, ad­dress ns above.

Rev. A. E. Ballard, wo suppose and hope, will bo free lo make Oeean Grove hie- permanent place of residence now that the entire Slate is assigned him for a field of labor. He should live somen-hero near its centre, nnd many are of opinion this is the “hub.”

Rev. William Rink, after various efforts to accomplish the end desired, tins nt length been restored to the Phil­adelphia Conference by transfer from the Central Pennsylvania, tho former being his home Conference, from which lib wns separated by a change in bound­aries some yenre ago: 1

The habit into which some of the preachers have fallen of .putting up Conference bars against transfers has a smack of selfishness nbout it uubeeoni-

. ing to the most liberal lind genial class of men in the world ; besides, it does not comport with that nice Scriptural

■ injunction, “ In honor preferring one ' another.”

Tho most' sorious drawback appre­hended in B e n d in g Dr. W a r r e n to Gen­eral Conference at the bend of the Phil­adelphia delegation is Hint lie will hardly be permitted to return to the pastorate. Some high office will claim his future attention—perhaps he will bo compelled to adapt himself to the Episcopacy.

Tlio article on prayer which we print on first page came to us without intima­tion of the author's name, but ia pub­lished on the recommendation of a spiritually-minded lady friend in Mas­sachusetts. Its quaint forms of expres­sion remind one of the style of old Jer­emy Taylor or Andrew Fuller. Wc think it will he found worthy of careful attention.

And how the busy notes of prepara­tion are heard in the getting up of a grand reception for Dr. Stokes 011 his return from Conference as the pastor of St. Paul’s. The movement lias origi­nated purely among the church people

• and will he carried out 011 that scale of enthusiastic uppreciation so character­istic of the membership. It will occur at tbo Hojvland Hou3e.

Rev. W. S. Barnart, the excellent and •popular pallor at St. Paul’s for the past . two years, has been stationed at Glass- boro/an enterprising town with a good church edifice, sixteen miles south of Camden. We hoped he would be nearer the Grove nnd Park where he has made so many friends, but wo wish him a pleasant and prosperous year in his new field.’ Leaving Asbury Park "To bo sup­

plied" in the plan of appointments, in­dicates that the previous arrangement for the services of Rev. W. H. Boole is

• to be fulfilled.. Why ire do ro t think this plan advisable may he of very little account to those concerned; but 11s some curious inquirers wish to know the reasons of our remark on the sub­ject last week, we may find occasion to state them more clearly if time and op­portunity occurs. ,

. The ..Salvation Army’.An organization under this general

title has been m existence for somo time past in England, nnd ia now orea- tiiig considerable attention in this coun­try. Certain members of its workipg force having emigrated to our shores, and commenced revival services in New York and Philadelphia. In the latter city active religions operations have been in progress during all the Winter months,' and it is declared, as tho .result, of singing, prayer and personal exhortations to the unconverted, scores if not hundreds have already abandoned a sinful life and became zealous votaries of .the Christian faith. A later arrival in New York lias furnished the leading papers of that city; pictorial and other­wise, a fresh sensation; and attracted great attention aniong the people.

From ‘what, little we have gathered concerning the origin, object and meth­ods of this,new religious movement, it appears that it took shape and inspira­tion from an eccentric Methodist preach­er,'who, like Loyola in'hid- day, and ns we hope, with ft better purpose, has infused into the converts of his open-air ministrations'the practical idea that the world can be conve rted to God, if-only converted people go out with the single nini to tell the story of Jesus and his 'immediate saving power. Tho British army in its organization, discipline and unquestioning obedience, served as a model for this spiritual , host, and in­cludes captains, lieutenants and other grades of responsibility shared alike by male nnd female, all subject to central authority, and ready. to go wherever directed in this salvation crusade.

So marked and wonderful has been the success of these devoted people in tlio densely populated cities and towns of England, that persons high in muni-' cipal authority, and wedded to church order ahd forms, have been compelled to approve tho work, because of its results, and on account of the purity of character and singleness of aim which characterizes all connected with.it.

What Will strike the American mind however as out of taste, if not grotesque or fantastical, is the uniform in which these good people appear. Scarlet rib­bons, parti-colored scarfs, hat bands with "Salvation Army,’’ and other devices prominent, doubtless help to draw a crowd. This is their intentiorf. They can raise a congregation any­where, and then by their singing, per­suasion and prayer they always expect to see direct fruits of their labors.’ How the so-called Christian community may look upon such ah innovation we miist wait a little to see. Meanwhile we hope the recruits may be multiplied a hun­dred fold. .'■■ , .A

The inclement weather did hot pre- vent a large attendence of members and some visiting strangers a t the meeting last Monday evening. The continued, and vie m ay eav increasing­ly, interesting character of the perform ances and the intelligence and desire for improvement, abounding in our resident community account for all.

■ Conforanco Notes.Tlie Pliiladelphia Annual Conference,

as we surmised in our notice of its first day’s proceedings i n our last issue, did n o t ' adjourn until' Thursday evening of the present weolt, tpo near the hour of our going to pret is for any reference to the last hot of its routine business— the announcement o f the appointments for tho ensuing year. •

The session was protracted at least a full day longer than necessary on ac­count of the trial cases forced npon the body, by charges against two of its members, The investigation of the charges presented wns quite senrehing and thorough, pressed with all the forms of a legal inquest, by members of the Conference; and .met by the defence, aided i by ministerial counsel,' with ingenuity and persistence;until tho voto of the “ select number" in each instance settled the verdict and defined the award. V; -y. • -

A large majority of the members np- pear to the observer aa young men. ".The fathers/where are th ey !” ; I Sitting iiere and there in the front seats, might be seen a few of the veterans remaining. Rev. A. Atwood, approaching his 80th year, is still lively and vigorous, com­manding universal attention whenever he has anything to say, which is not seldom, as he lakes a deep intorcst.in every question coming up for discus­sion. More silent, but also strong in the vigor of a well-preserved old nge is Dr. Castle, and that genial and witty gentleman, William Cooper. Rev. Bros. Coombe, Cunningham, Elliott, Oram and a few others identified with the itinerant work for from forty to fifty years, and still in the effective ranks, form but a small proportion of the entire body. W hen the roll was-callcd two of tho venerated list answered not. John Ruth and M. Sorin had finished their work, and obtained their release.

The health of several brethren hnd so far failed that they were compelled to ask a’ superannuated relation;: never more, perhaps, to enter the effective ranks, until mortality is swallowed up of life.VVyV ;■ V: A :

The second day of the session wns taken'.up mainly with “ minute” busi­ness, being, reports of the presiding eldore, and the usual examination of character. No Methodist preacher in the connexion can pass until the ques­tion, " Anything against him ?" has been satisfactorily answered.. ;

James Black, Esq., of Lancaster, Pa., was elected a trustee of . the Preachers’ Aid Society, and took his seat.with tbe Conference Stewards.

A paper offered by Rev. W. L. Gray against any change in the present con-, s’titution of the Episcopacy, the presid­ing eldership, and. the pastoral term of three years, was voted down, as not suiting the temper of the times, and falling short of the progressive spirit of the Conference. Resolutions' subse­quently.offered indicated very clearly that a majority desire some sort of mod­ification in usages that have, it is alleged, had their day and served their purpose. ; , 0 ; , ' . A .

Rev. James Morrow, in calling atten­tion to the prevailing distress in Ireland secured the appointment of a . strong committee to co-operate in measures for relief. It consisted of the mover, Brn. Morrow, S, W. Thomas, A. Eitten- heuse, D.D., A. Cather.and Dr. H. W. Warren. 'V.A-:v

A lively discussion arose on Bro. Fernley's resolutions regulating trans­fers, and while this is always a subject of great delicacy in thq face of Episco­pal prerogative, and the fact that cer­tain churches always obtain' the men they desire, and always will, a few earn­est sticklers for home protection ease their minds and exhibit a 'm arked de' gree of independence in their absurd opposition to strangers.

The event of the third day was the election of. delegates to the next Gen-, eral Conference. The mode adopted was quite imposing. Tiie aisles were cleared, trusted tellers were appointed. the Conference roll Was called, and aa each name was announced, the brother answering to it rose in his place an­swering “ here," and dropped a slip of paper containing only five names in the extended hat of the nearest teller, the latter distinctly' saying, " Voted.' The counting of the . first ballot was a formidable piece of work, and Confer­ence. adjourned before the result was known.. It soon leaked out however that four brethren had obtained the requisite m ajorities: Dr. H. W. Warren, Rev. W. J. Faison, Rev. W. Swindells, and Rev. Dr. Jacob Todd. Great satis­faction was felt, at the result.

I t took several successive bullotings to secure the fifth delegate. The names of Revs. George Cummins, Dr. Chaplain, T. B. Neely, Janies Cunningham, and half a dozen of others beiiig well up iu the figures. At length Presiding Elder Corn 111 hi a won’tho honor, and alter another somewhat protracted contest,

Ju which Bro. Neely,, the representative

of tho young and progressive elomont made a good fight, Drs. Chaplain, and Cunningham were declared to bo the reserves amid thunders of applause from the Conference and crowded con­gregation.

Bishops Simpson and Andrews ap­peared 011 the platform on Saturday, the latter having recently closed tho Baltimore Conference. The business of this session; in electing candidates for orders, and hearing reports from exam­ining committees, was varied by a thrilling address from Clmplnin McCabe, 011 Church Extension, the introduction of Frank Murphy, and an eloquent and fraternal speech by Mr. John Wann- m aker.. ,

On Sabbath the congregations in the city churches were nil unusually large, Ihe ordination of deacons took“ place tiller a sermon by Bishop Merrill, at Union, and the elders were ordained in the afternoon at St. John's. All the pulpits were occupied by members of Conference and distinguished visiting brethren from distant points.

Monday nos fully occupied. Tlio morning session was mainly taken up in disposing of the relation ofaupernu- mcraries and the superannuated prcach- crs. In defining the exact status of these classes there was a good ileal of pleasant interchange between the older men, none of whom seemed willing to admit that he wns “ worn out,” although ono supposed that he was " played out.”

In the afternoon an immense congre­gation assembled to hear the missionary sermon, which wna preached by Rev. Andrew Longacre, from. John 17 : 18, setting forth the sublime spirit of sacri­fice nnd self-denial underlying mission­ary endeavor. The picturing of the preacher in reference to Christ's mis­sion/arid the Church's failure hitherto ih carrying out the divine purpose, and his representation of tho moral and spiritual needs of the world were strong and beautiful. The sermon waa nearly two hours in delivery but heard to the close with wrapt attention.

ThePhiladelphin Conference Mission­ary Anniversary, usually reserved for Monday evening, has for years been the greatest occasion of Conference week. No building or audience room in the city has been equal to the accommoda­tion required by the crowds in attend­ance. This year ii healthy advance in missionary contributions produced the moat buoyant feeling in every breast. The beloved John Whiteman and his associates, Colson Hieskill, George Per- kiripine and others were happy. Their Conference still carries the banner, ahd it was meet that the doxology ahould be sung and repeated, when the treasurer's report wiis announced. The addresses of the evening were by Frank H. Moore, one of . the' young members of Confer­ence, who acquitted himself grandly, Bishop Merrill, who always speaks to the point, and Dr. Fowler, of the Advo­cate. The latter was overwhelming in his wit, -argument, and sweeping elo­quence. At its close Mr: T. W. Price created a lively sensation by nominating Dr. Fowler for the position of Mission­ary Secietary, to 911 the place now vacant by the death of the lamented Dr. Dashiell. ... ' , •

On Tuesday, as it was ascertained the Conference could not adjourn until the trial cases of Bros. Miller and Major were ended, sundry papers, having some bearing on ministerial character, and General Conference action,were intro­duced, and brought the best debaters to the front. A pretty extensive range of remark was indulged in regarding min­isters lending themselves to secular pursuits. On this subject the.excite­ment became intense, and to the throng of spectators on the floor, and packed in the galleries, every sharp repartee was but the signal for an outburst of laughter, making the scene more like a circus tbon a grave religious assembly.

MEMORIAL SERVICE.

An extra session was appointed, for Tuesday afternoon to pay becoming respect to the memory of those who during the past Conference year had exchanged the Gaurch militant for the home of the faithful in Heaven. Rev.H. W. Warren, D.D., presided at thi^ solemn service, which included the reading of memoirs of two ministers and no less than six of tho wives of members of Conference. After devo tional exercises a sketch of the life, character and labors of Rev. John Ruth was read, and affectionate tributes were paid to his loveable nature and remark, ably happy, death. Then followed an able paper setting forth the prolonged and varied career of Dr. Sorin, a giant in his.day among the standard bearers of the cross. Dr, Castle read a thrill- ingly beautiful memoir.of Mrs. Rev. Dr; Ritienhouse and, Rev. S. W. Thomas one of Mrs. Rev. J. 3. Cook. To these were added well written qbituaries qf Mrs. Rev. W. T. Magee, Mrs. D. L. Pat­terson, Mrs. N. B. Durell and Mrs. J. D. Fox, from every one of which the most impressive lessons were drawn illustra­

tive of Ghristly. charnctor, zeal in. well doing, patience in aftliction, and tri­umph ih death, through the faith that takes hold on immortality.

In the expectation that Cobferohce might adjourn, or at least that the trial committees would be ready to report, the church was densely thronged at an early hour on Wednesday, and as busi­ness progressed it becamo next to an impossibility to get through the aisles, or hardly turn around in the galleries. Most of the morning session however was taken up with the question, " Who are admitted on trial ?" Prolonged dis- ouBsion was had on the literary qualifi­cations of candidates, - and a.rigid dis­crimination was made in favor of collegiate training. The debaters were ready with questions of ecclesiastical reform, hut found no opportunity to air their eloquence. Information from the judicial courts shut out the hope of a final, adjournment before Thursday, March 18, so after an exciting session the morning hour expired, and the Con­ference determined to assemble again n t7 j p . m ., that regular business might be resu med, and some margin for dis­cussion allowed.

Of Thursday’s proceedings we can give no reliable account, as our press will be printing this sheet before the hour of finishing up the annual Bession. We have taken note of a number of points which; in this hurried sketch could hot he amplified, but may come up foi review in onr next iauie.

New Jersey; Conference,

.T his respectable body finished tho business of its annual session in Cam­den, on last Wednesday, and most of its members have now '■ returned to their former, homes, or new fields of labor as the case may be.

In fixing tho time for meetings and adjournment, a half hour for devotion­al services was secured oach day; and although but few were usually present to participate, the exainplo waa Balu- tary and the infiuehce valuable.

On the afternoon of the opening day, March lo, after it had been.ahnohnced that Bishop Scott could not preside through illness, and was confined to his home .in-.Odesso, Del., to the surprise and pleasure of many he put in an ap­pearance and spent several days among the brethren, aiding by his counsel in tho Work of appointing the preachers.

On the second day ol the session, he (Bishop Scott), although quite feeble, delivered a feeling address, and com­mitted hie part of the responsibility to his excellent colleague, Bishop Bow­man. ; V -

Rev. Dr. Hurlbut, representing the Sunday-school Union of the M. E. Church, addressed the Conference on that important specialty, and to Rev. Dr. Sheldon, of the Bible Society, was also given the opportunity to commend the interests he has in hand.. Instead of entering into a general de­bate over certain resolutions offered hy Jefferson Lewis, discountenancing the seeking of choice appointments by the preachers, as their brethren across the river would have done, the Conference very cheerfully concurred in the view presented, and thus saved time.'

Rev. S. Yansnnt, among other items in his annual report of New Brunswick District, declared that about 1,500 per­sons had been converted during the Conference year. (Rev. Mr. Moffit re­ported i ;0 0 0 , and the other districts about the same number each.. A glo rious year’s work in this department.

Rev’s . W. C. Stockton, J, W. Hick­man and Jos. Ashbrook asked for, and obtained the relation of supernumer­ary. These are all of note in the valu able service they have rendered' to the church. The latter delivered a deeply interesting semi-centennial Bermon during the session, and now gracefully drops into the. retired list after 50 years of effective service. >

The elections were called up on F r i­day March 1-2, but on account of so many favorites being in the field .only two brethren, Dr. Graw and Rev, My. Moffit, received a sufficient majority to send them to the General Conference. Subsequently, Rev’s. C. E. Hill and G.B. Wight, Conference Secretary were selected, to complete the number , of delegatee, with Rev's. J. Lewis and D.H. 8chock, as reserves. Bro. Lewis had just completed his 50th year, of effective service, and this mark of appreciation waa evinced in consequence.

The Lay Electoral Conference held on the same day, was' an orderly and intelligent body of devoted, men who arc known to be steadfast frienda of Methodism.' With great unanimity, Gen. Clintou B. Fisk waa selected aa one of their delegates, and an aged gen­tleman named Di verty, from Cape May, the other. - Major Jaa. S. Yard, of- the Monniouth Democrat, received a strong vote and was mode one the- reserve delegates. This meeting was held in

the body of Third street M. E. Church, and was presided over by T. J . Mc­Pherson, Esq., of Trenton. ■ ,

The Conference in the further proso- eution of its business exhibited a singu­lar disinclination to favor the ordina­tion of local preachers. The debate on this question took a-widorange, and opposition wns: finally modified in a more conooiliatry and fraternal spirit.

A first-class worker being in demand for. State Agent of the Teniperance So­ciety, Rev. A. E. Ballard was selected and appt inted to this important post. We have no hesitation in believing that he will make his mark, especially in the legislation, which, more than anything else, will save the State from . intemperance and its appaling train of evils. - .

Nearer- the close of 'the session Rev. John Wilson was taken out of the pas­toral relation and given the entire bounds of the Conference as a circuit in which to operate for the purpose of raising funds to relieve Pennington Seminary from deht. To some sensitive individuals such an agency as this - would look formidable, and the success problematical, but Bro. Wilson enters on his work with good hope that he will accomplish the object. ,

It,was a sort of extinguisher on that line of. inquiry when Dr. Hunt, of the M. E. Book Concern, in reply to a reso­lution asking for, the Advocate at a cheaper figure, and discountenancing premiums, said tho premiums given had increased the circulation over 30,- 000, and without something of the kind in view of the present cost of material the (paper would have to bo increaeed, rather than lowered in price."

Dr. Fowler made the Conference a welcome visit, and of course, a very well received address; -

Rev's. A . K. Street and T. Sovereign, both of whom will have completed 50 years of active ministerial soryice by next Conference, were requested to preach semi-centennial sermons, if spared to attend the session.

Item Washington. • .At the recent session of the Baltimore

Conference, of M. E. Church, the ap­pointment of Bov. C. Herbert Richard­son, to McKendree Church of this city, seems to give entire satisfaction. The large congregation at the Metropolitan church, however, ore not so jubilant at the removal of Dr, Naylor, after but two years of service amongst them, and the appointment of Rev. Robert Baer in liis stead. They had become very 'much -Attached to Dr.’ Naylor, whose earnest and eloquent preaching, and' faithful pastoral labors, "had won the. hearts pf the people. They asked for his return; but without success.

The , Foundry people warmly wel­comed (back Dr. Lanahan, who has now entered opon his third year among them. ;:On Wednesday evening of this week a'grand reception was held lit the church; which afforded an opportunity for social interchange of .congratula­tions. «’• it. ... v; - - v

The revival services at Mount Zion, which, 'beginning early in January, were conjtinued till Conference, resulted in the addition of largely, upwards of a huiidred-linejphers to the church. Rev. . Dr. E. D. Owen, than whom there is not a more earnest worker for the Mas­ter to be found, in this city, or scarcely elsewhere, returns to finish out the term of three years at that charge. The time is not . far distant when Mount Zion will become one of the largest Methodist congregaiions in this city., At Hamlin, also, a .very successful re- . vival has been in progress for mstiy weeks, under the ministration of the pastor, Rev. Wm. McKenney. Bro. Mb- Kenney is an earnest, eloquent preach; e r; aiid his labors are well sustained by his people; and he is greatly assisted by Mrs. Clara Rdacli, of revival fame,

The pplpits of the M. E. Church, and many of other denominations as well, were occupied yesterday by ministers of the M. P. Church, now holding.the Maryland annual, Conference in this city. Al Foundry, in the morning, Rev. Dr. Bates preached to a large congrega­tion, and : at night,Rev. Mr. Holmes, a comparatively young man, delivered a sermon of great power and stirring elo­quence, from the text “For Christ also hath once suffered for our sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God.” That sermon, for its .pathos, and clearness of heart-teaching, will not soon be forgotten hy those who had the good fortune to hear. it.

Onr Educational Policy,

n y r e v . iv. l e e s r o r s w o o d , a d .

(Concluded.)

Our policy encourages students to be satisfied with defective culture. It can­not bo otherwise. With, a standard of education below that of every reapeota- ble college, the Seminary encourages, though undesignedly, students. to stop' Bh'ort of tho. higheseculture. Some of. thorn, to be sure, will not be satisfied when they hove, mastered its curricu­lum and received its degree of Bachelor of. Arts; ..hut constrained, as many have been, by the “noble. rage" for knowledge, after graduating there, they will seek some college pr'uniyefsity, at beat only able to enter it® junior class, and, not even that without requisitions j and thers graduate again and receive, a

. second time, the degree of A. B.Id this not a wrong, without intend­

ing it, but y e t» deep, wrong to such a graduate? Why send him forth to lifo’s battles "against principalities, againBt powers, against tho rulers of the dark nesa of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places” .only half, equipped, when he might be ordered to the front fully armed ?

Is not this a reproach to our church? Is it not a cause of alarm ? Under this policy, in the future as in the post, will not men o f defective culture knock nt the doors of bur Conferences nnd be in-

- vited’ to come in ? Tho boast now is that our supply of preachers conies nu­merously from the Seminary. Will it not continue so. to be? And will this bo kindness to the candidates? Will it be justice to tho church ? Can she en­dure this strain ? No, sho will be shorn pf her strength, as the age grows in in­tellectual vigor, and she will then be no looger the church of the times.

Our policy has been well nigh fatal to Dickinson College, with its excellent situation, good equipment and learned faculty. Sho was languishing—almost dying—for the want of students. And one of the things that has put new life and fresh vigor into her, has becsn;tho re establishment of her own Grammar School. She could not get her rightful supply of students from abroad, from Methodist seminaries in the tounds of our patronizing Conferences, nnd, espe­cially, from her most natural ally and namesake, Dickinson Seminary; and, hence, she was compelled, in .self de­fence, to prepare, os best she could, that supply at homo. A gentleman once asked a college president, "W here do you expect to obtain your fresh supply of students ?” and this was his sad an­swer, “Just wherever we can pick them up.” Can there be a more ruinous policy than is indicated in this ques­tion and reply.

When our successors shall examine qur educational work, it will matter little whether or not their praise of us ihall be, “They builded better than

: they knew." Let us build as well as we know. And if wo think intelligently on the subject, we must know juBt as it has been presented in this argument. So knowing, let us build. Ami so build­ing, will secure for us a sufficient meed of posthumous fame.

Patronizing Conferences, confess your error and quickly remove it. Central Pennsylvania Conference, you have a delicate and difficult task. But, in your ownership of Williamsport Dickinson

» Seminary, you can and, freed from your Bonsitivonesa, you will perform it. The chief thing in the path of our edu­cational progress is in the w av of your duty. Do, then, that which will bo, in the long run, best for your Schiinary, best for higher education, and, hence, best for the church “dear as the apple of thine eye.” Without abating one jo to fits course, remand your Bchoo! at Williamsport to its proper place, to be, in reality, what it is now in tiame, only a seminary; and, also, to be what it ought to be, and was intended to be, an auxiliary to your college at Carlisle. This has always been in accordance with the view of the writer of this paper, even when President of the Sem­inary, for as such be labored to bring it about. And thus doing you will act in harmony with the teaching of your dis­cipline, which recommends that acade­mies or seminaries “confine themselves to their legitimate sphere of duties,” and in regard to colleges or universities, earnestly advises . the Conferences "not to multiply schools, especially of this grade, beyond the wants of the people or their ability to sustain them.”

Friends of higher education,' hear and, in the name of reason, heed me. Culture; in ail our Methodism, has not a larger and richer heritage than ours. And to do grand things for it, how golden the timo approaching the cen­tennial of your college. In kind eon- sideration of young men called of the Hoiy Ghost to preach t he Gospel, and, in full recognition of tho-wea! of the church, if not of her life, incoming years, do something full of wisdom.

You ought to do for culture that which is good and will endure, A true edu­cational policy Ib goo 1, and it will last forever. It is your duty, therefore, to organize and .fix it.

That policy has been pointed out in this paper. With it Williamsport Dick­inson Seminary will have a brighter fu­ture than ite past. And Dickinson Col­lege, now venerable in her age of al­most an hundred years, and crowned with her many honors; w ill, be d. full benediction, nut only to the Conferences named at tbo head of this article, but, because o t her; very seat, to.other Con­ferences further southward, when a hotter day shall dawn, as it surely will upon tho Southern States.

Editorial Notea.

Brcs. Paxson and Neely have had a rhetorical duel in Conference .debate, snd both escaped comparatively un­hurt.

Over a score of places in the New Jersey Conference appointments are left "to be supplied.” We thought there was an excess of men on hand. How is it? *

Rev. James Moore, hy recent ap­pointment, takes “ St. Luke’s,” Long Branch, arid we hope lie will be suc­cessful in placing that church on a safe foundation, by providing for all its old debts..

Dr. Hanlon, President of Pennington Seminary, has done the State gond ser­vice in various ways, and latterly by having a rumsciler in his vicinity tried ind convicted for illegal practices. He is entitled to the thanks of all well dis­posed people.

Tho alumni and friends of Dickinson College enjoyed a pleasant re-union last , Friday, evening, at which pithy speeches were in order, and some fore­shadowing of the centennial o fth is in­stitution, which is to occur three-years hence, was given.

Mrs. Maggie VanCott will have reached the honorable age of fifty bn March.25tb, and it is proposed to have a aemireentennisi celebration, on that day. The affair will call a host of her friends together at Washington Square M. E. Church, New York, where she holds her membership.

In the rural retreat and classic shades of Vineland, our friend Rev. G. K. Morris, will exorcise his ministry the ensuing year. An item in T h e R e c o r d incidently referring to Bro. Morris some weeks . ago, has drawn down on our devoted pate a good deal of animadversion, from members bf the Conference, but we may now rise to ex­plain that the item .in question was not written by the editor. It came in, as a good deal of our news conies, through brethren who take this mode of making our columns “ spicy.” They do not always consider the fable of tho boys; and the frogs as recorded in the popu ! lar pages of rEsop.

Tha Next Thing.

The next thing after building a com­fortable cottage or boarding huuso, is to see about its furnishing. As we are often consulted in regard to this matter, we give as our deliberate opinion that parties can do fully ns well here on the shore, as in the.largest city houses, both in quality, variety and prices'of goods needed, In the original store of John A. Gilberts, for. instance, wbiesi has been growing in exact ratio with? the increasing doofauds bf the times, a per­sonal investigation will convince our friends that we aro about right. And there is more to be considered in this matter, than the actual cost of furniture, carpets, bedding, glass and china ware, or the expense, delay or breakage in shipment from the cities to tbo shore. All goods purchased at Githens’ are delivered by the most trustworthy at­tendants, and assistance is given in laying carpets, and arranging furniture. The curd of this enterprising house, which will bo found in our advertising columns, will indicate more fully tho advantages of dealing directly here.

I purchase direct from m anufacturers, the same as largo jobbers in New York. P h iladelph ia and Boston. My goods are shipped In car-loads; and I feel safe in saying th at I can sell as cheap as par­ties In the large cities, thereby saving freight and breakage to the customer.

I have .h ad tho pleasure of furnishing tho majority of the large hotels and cottages along tho shore—with entire satisfaction, I th in k —and I re­spectfully request persona intending to furnish to call and exam ine my goods and prices before pur­chasing elsewhere. Any inquiries by letter will be gladly received and prom ptly answered.

■ / ' - EX T EN T . . /: I t comprises about three hum ired acres of land, two-thirds of which nro grove, and the rem ainder beach land. Tho w hole plot is now laid: out in grand avenues from eighty to three hundred feet wide..''-- /■■■"•" / / / • ; . . . ' ' •:.• •/ •

OUILDINGN.

On these avenues "bout three hundred a n d sev­enty-five cottages are now built; varying in; oost from $ 3 0 0 to 8 5 ,0 0 0 . There arc about rorty additional buildings, consisting o fla rg e boarding­houses, stores, an d sn ch other edifices ns the busi­ness o f th e placo dcmnnils. To these building* others are being constantly added, so ti a t d ie pre­cise num ber given to-day w ill no t answer for the num ber a week or a m onth hence. All o f the cot­tage* are comfortable—some o f them plain; and others possessing all th e beauty and perfection ot m odem architecture.'

SIZ E OF LOTS.

The average size of lots is 30x60.fcet. which I* large enough for a small cottAge, such ns tho m a­jority prefer to build. Those who wish to build larger buy two o r w orn lots.

In addition to cottages a n d boarding-kou*ci a* place* of residence, tents ore used by many people.

boating upon the lakes is enjoyed by thOKsandi of m en, women, and children, from carl) f* wn. to long after ^ark. Oyer four hundred boats are now found upon these water*.

GOVERNMENT.The government of the placo is strictly religious,

being In charge o f twenty-six m en—thirteen m in­ister* and thirteen laym en—ail of whom m ust be member* of the Methodist Episcopal C hurch ; and yet this place is in no sense sectarian—its popu ia-' tion being composed of all denom inations o f ChrisT tians, who enjoy and take part In it* religious ser- ‘ tees. . ;* 1 '■'..•• •• ’•• ;••' . :7
