After which, the Rev. Bubopmace an eloquent prayer,
imploring that tho Divine guiila- co n ight bo granted to
the Conference during its session, as Writ as to the armies
and legislators of our country, anu praying that the time
may focn como when order on«l peace shall prevail
throughout ihe land.
Tho roll of members was called by tho secretary of the

that office for tho present tession. Tho Revs. G. W Ly
torand, A. hi. Wiggins, and S. L. Gracy, -vero appointed

t*€B were ordered to be appointed by the Chair, except
the Committee on Statistic#, which was appointed on no

Revs. T B. Miller, B. C. Carson, 0. Walters* T. Mont
gomery, V. Warner, ard C. F. Shepherd.
The Board of Stewards was ftppoiuted, and consists of
Revs. J. B. McCullough. Wm. Cooper, C. Karsner, U.
Bill, W. E. England, and J. A. Massey. These act ia
conjunction with a similar number of laymen, in the dis
tribution of the funds raised for the worn-out preachers,
Widows, Ac. Tlie laymen are W. Rhodes, T. T. Tasker,
B. Haywood, Joseph Tarrieh, Iff. D., William Cannon.
The time for the moneys collected fur this purpose to
he called for, was fixed at to-morrow morning, at 10
o'clo *k
Ihe names of those who are superannuated in the
ministry were called, and the following continued in that
position;
Revs. George Barton, Jos. H. Wythes, D. Liimbuin,
B Button, E. T. Cooper.
At ibis point the Rev. W. Bishop arose, and moved
that the President Elders be request**}, in representing
the ministers of their respective districts, to statd the
DoeitioD ol such minister iu reference tv ltis leriilty te
the Government He stated that there were some upon
this floor who were doubted, and more than doubted in
this particular. He wanted the matter carefully in
quired after.
Rev. W. T». Gray doubted the necessity of the course
proposed: i:' any were suspected, let them be inquired
after. ~ ,
Rev. J. X. Taft and Rev. J. A. Massey took the surao
view of the motion, and were opposed to its introduction.
Rev. W. Bishop eloquently urged his motion. He
thought tlese were times when every man and every
Christian minister should hewillingto show bis hand and
let the whole world Know where they Blivud, II? pwid ft
beautiful tribute to the Union, the Country, and the Go
vernment. The loyalty of a Methodist minister should
be like Cm-ar’s wife, above suspicion, lie did not vote
for Mr. Lincoln. He would here coufess his siu, ho
voted for John C. Breckiuridge, not knowing that he
was voting for a traitor who wu» contemplating to lay an
cartlmiiaka at the heart of ibid great nation lie prayed
God that his life Blight be spared to repent of his siu and
do better in the future.
Loyal men now are the light of the world, a city set
upon a hill, and their path growetli brighter and brighter
unto the perfect day.
Onr armies ore marching southward, and soon our
Union will be restored in fell ita glvry Mid p?rp«t<iU>'i
■While thousands are Buffering fur ihuir country, shall
we be afraid to suffer l We ueed not bt afraid. Lotus
have tho test proposed by this or some similar resolution.
The motion was opposed by the secretary, who urged
that the whole matter be refeirod to a committee, and
when they imported, each brother will have a chance to
show bis baiid OP FklAi lilfl VOiOO.
Rev. Dr. Hodgson opposed the whole matter as a po
litical movement. "He was opposed to the appointment of
a committee on the state of the count, y, ns we were not
here to transact such business or attend to such ques
tions.
Re?. James Xt-iil thought that if we should ever be
come father?, our children would bo ashamed of us if wo
relused to act cow in favor of the country, decidedly
and boldly, in this hour of our cou : try’s peril. He
hoped the committee would be appointed.
Rev. Mr. Bishop was willing to withdraw his motion
in view of a motion offered by Mr. Neill that a committee
of five be appointed on the slate of tno country.
Bev. Dr. Quigley was opposed to any action.
Rev. J. Cunningham oflerod some remarks, in which
he contended that if we had no precedent, we should pro
ceed to zn*ke one. The article in our religion upon the
subject does not reach this case. If action ou the subject
will raise suspicion Hgalusi certain members of tho Con
ference, no action will excite greater suspicion. W-are
told this tuition woul i do us harm. He was willing to
take the conseaumces
During the delivery of this speech intense excitement
prevailed in the largo audience.
Rev. P. Goombe supposed that if we were disposed to
<tosge tin? question we could not, but he was notdisposed
to dodge this or any other question, but he cootunded
that the proper course would be for resolutions to be
presented now, and let them either be agreed upon or re
ferred to a committee.
The motion to appoint a committee was carried. The
chair will announce tho names to-morrow.
The superannuated list was resumed, and the following
were continued in that relation; W. Quion, J. Turner,
J. Hubbard, C. Shock. E. Reed, I. T. Cooper, S. E.
Kemp, J. H. McFarland, and T. S. Childs.
Rev. C. J. Ctcuch, at his own request, was placed
upon the effective list, be being able to perform full
pastoral work.
Upon the came of the Rev. John Talley beieg called,
the Presiding Elder, Rev. Joseph Mason, aunouucod that
he had decias'.d during tho year. He was a good man,
and died right.
Revs. A. Atwood, W. B&rnea, M. D. Kurtz, C. Cook,
J.F. Chaplain, and J. W. JacksoD, were appointed a
committee on public worship, during the session of Con-'
ference.
S. E. Stephens was appointed on the Committee ou
Statistics, in place of T. B. M iller, who was excused.
Rev. \V. Cooper moved that the ordinations of deacons
and eiders take place on Monday. The motion was lost;
so that they will tako place in two different churches bn
the Sabbath.
Ihe Bishop suggested that at each Conference, for the
past three years, he had administered the holy pacrament,.
and held a Christian experience meeting immediately
after. It was ordered that this service be performed on
Friday morning, at ten o’clock, to be followed by the re
lation of experience until the hour of adjournment.
Bev. J. A. MuHßey offered a motion that a prayer meet
ing be held each morning, at eight o’clock, which was
eftFskd.
Notices were announced, and tho proceedings closed
with prajerby tbeßeV. G. I). Carrow.
Last evening there was preaching at Twelfth and Ogden
streets bp the Rev. J. B. Quigg, and in most of tho
Methodist churches in the city similar exercises were
held.
\Ve would caution the inemhers oF the Conference
against pickpockets, who »T 6 always in tin habit of
frequenting such places for plunder. Last year
of the ministers had their pockets picked of large snot?
of money. A word to toe wiso is sufficient.
The Express Business.—i>To business has
been more prosperous of late years than that of the ox
pyesa companies. They have kept pace with tho spirit of
the age, and become at length a great public necessity.
Their success has been owing almost entirely to the groat
energy and enterprise that have been manifested in the
conduction of affairs by their originators and managers.
And bo popular hare they become that the name of one
of the principal agencies, the Adams’ Express Company,
has become a “ household word ” in every family.
Twenty years ago, a conductor on an Eastern railroad,
haying become known to the business community as a
. man of integrity, found bimself entrusted by private
Itftndfr first with parcels tor delivery, then with commis
sions for the purchase of goods, at thepiiucipal towns and
cities on the route of the railroad with which be was con
nected, and finally with money packages from bankers
and others, who had hitherto been obliged to undergo
the fatigues of travel, which they found could be relieved
through the means of his agency. This opened to his
mind a new fluid of labor, which he at ornio set übout to
cultivate and improve. Jle resigned his podrion as con
ductor, and started au expreasage, the results of which
have proven of such incalculable benefit to the public.
One of the most successful of these agencies is that
Burned in honor of the originator HlJuded to, TJiS : the
Htrnduu Express Company, which in counuctioo with
the Howard S» Co.’s Express, has become a valuable ac
quisition to Philadelphia under tho able management of
3ir. I’rtderick Luvpjoy, the general superinteudeut, and
has increased so rapidly iu oxient (covering the entire
loyal territory of the Union) that the credit can
now he justly ctaiaird by thru* cuiupauioß, of towing pro*
vided tile public with the largest and most convenient
express office in this city, whs tue result as much of ne
cessity as good taste and enterpiise. Until the com
mencement of the year the business of the companies
was conducted in tbc vicinity of Third and Chestnut :
streets, when tilt iirti at the Telegraph building rendered
a removal opportune*. Taking advantage of thij eireum
rttaucw, and recognizing, with business tact, the new
course of trade, which ia sthnlly hue unceasingly tending
to flow westward, Mr. Lovcjoy selected, as a new site, ono
of the large granite buildiogsou the north side of Chestnut
above Sixth, and gave to that neighborhood the bustle aud
activity which always attend the express business. The
building is well adapted for the purpo?eg to Which it lifts
been appropriated, affording a hue front on Chestnut
street, f *r the reception of goods, and extending through
to Jayno street, whore the numerous wagons employed
bj the company cuu load aud unload with but little inter
ruption from passing vehicles The principal office has
been fitted up in a style excelling that of any other Ex •
press Company in the country in good taste aud facility
for the I'btdiwlitm of business. The lines of the com
pany, which have hitherto included tho North, East, and
Northwest, have been extended southward to Baltimore
and Washington—points which especially demand largo
freighting facilities at this time. The agency of Wells,
Fargo, & Co. California Express bas also been removed
to this new building.
The conducting of the express business is an inte
resting study, and a visit to any of these establishments
will repay the curious as well as the business public.
The New Miul-Hoese at Pair-
MOUNT Tills structure wi'l be completed in a short'
time, the machinery having already been placed in the
building.
The w'( rk was commenced ou the north or upper-river
side, by constructing a coffer dam. Great pains were
taken to make this firm and reliable, against any possible
rise in the rivur. This work was frequently sevwroly tantud
by freshets. Inside, the coffer-dam was excavated to a
proper depth, a bed of broken stone was prepared, upon
which Iwelve»inch white pile logs were laid j sheet piling
was then driven around this platform, the interstices be
tween the logs were filled with broken stone, and ceintnt
greut was run in, thus binding the wholo mass together.
This was then covered with three-inch pine plank, and
upon this foundation the front wail, head arches, and
gutes were erected. The gates and flumes are of cast
iron, faced with brass, and are raised with simple screws.
They open an area of water-way of sixty-live feet for
each wheel. The front wall was carried up to its full
height, the gates put in place, and the flume carried a
Miflicieut distance into tie cDUiaokmeut to secure perfect
gfltely of water in IhoQ&hi, before any
work was done upou its south or low»r aide.
An idea can be had great care required in prose
cuting the entire work when it is known that the dam
backs up about seven miles, and its destruction would
not only be disastrous to the valuaole property along the
river below it, but the entire city would be deprived of
its water supply, except that part supplied by the Dela
ware Worka. While the north front was in course of
construction, the Schuylkill Navigation Company en
deavored to stop the works, claimiug to have certain
rights to the Btructuie of the dam, and that the naviga
tion of the river would be endangered by the work. An
Injunction was procured, restraining the City from prose
cutiius the work in any oilier way n<j it woe thou
being done, and according to the plans exhibited to the
court by this department.
A coffer dam was next constructed on the south or
lower side of the dam This was found a matter ot diffi
culty on account ot the great depth inquired for wheel
pits, and the trouble in procuring a good connection with
the darn, which was found to bo composed principally of
lor r-e stone After excavating into the dam as far as safe
ty would allow, and piling, a large quantity of water still
leaked into the coffer dam when the tide was up. The
south side of the dam had been excavated to a depth of
fourteen feet below mean high tide, wlien a deep stratum
of river mud was reached, Into which three hundred and
fifty piles were driven, parsing through tha mud, and a
stratum of from three to five feet gravel Upon the head
of the pi es twelve-inch timbers were laid, and around
the exposed sides of the platform a double row of
jointed sheet piling waß driven. This platform, one bun
dled and thirteen feet by twenty-three feet, was tben co
vered with plonking, upon which the foundations for tho
machinery and wheels are placed. Tho wheels are placed
near the south Iront of the wheel-house.
The usefulness of this new improvement will at once
|>o manifest when it is put in working order. One object
to be attained is to utilize the surplus power of tho
water which flows over the Fairmount dam. It has long
been contemplated to increoae the power of the Fair
mount Works to something near tho mean capacity of
the rcliujlkitl river. ‘ After numerous suggestions and
plane, it was at length determined to erect the new mil*-
liottße in its present shape.
Colored Emigration.—The emigra
tion of the colored population has recently received con
siderable attention, and numerous families have, within
a few weeks pari, left this soil far other climes. The
Pennsylvania Colonization Society have not t< is year
been very puccessful. Their last shipment WftSltlOcto*
bor of ISM, at which time forty-two emigrants were sent
from tbe port of New York to Liberia. The next vessel
for this settlement will sail from Baltimore on or abont
Ihe first of May. At present there is but little doing, al
though evidences arc had daily of tho increased iutoroit
of the public iu this cause. These who have emigrated
have been instructed in agriculture and art, aud at the
rooms of the Colonization Society we were shown some
specimens of their labor, consisting of fancy cotton
cloth, which is dyed and woven from material raised ou
the settlement. We wero also shown aome coffee which
whs equal, if rot superior, to the finest llio Janeiro
President Benson, in his inaugural Address, nmde at
Monrovia last January, declare* tho existence in tho in
terior of Lihoria, of a vast region of millions of acres of
land, as fertile anil as desirable aud s< Itablo for the habi

By a letter received at the Pennsylvania Colonization
f-ociety, from Mr Gerard Balaton, consular agent at
LaiiJab. Wfe. leaFA that lha Ktutltah Govormnont had
given imtructions for their mad sroiuners to stop at Mon
rovia. tho capital of Liberia, for the purpose of affording
an opportunity to tbe people of that country to display
theft goods at ihe world’s fair, wliich takes place iu May.
The inhabitants took advantage of the opportunity thus
present* d, and numerous collections awino? already in
l.ondrn to be exhibited at the iair. This is the first
shipment of articles that has been received from any dis
tant ccuutry.
Collection of Mud in the Schutl-
KILL. —The accumulations of mud in thfc Schuylkill
ihuii, from Columbia bridge down, it Is calculated, resell
from twenty-five to thirty thousand cubic yards per
year. The lBßt report of the late Chief Eogimer of the
Water Department alludes to the fact that the deposits
near tho Skaters’ Club House are paused by a retrograde
motion of the water, resulting on account of the huuse
projecting into tin river. The accumulations at this
point extend along the south of the Park to th© steamboat
wharf at Fairmount, where the water has become so
shallow llmt the mud is disturbed every titno tho boats
approach or leave ibe uharl. This xuud, thus agitated,
pusses immediately into the fore-bay, and is, in part,
pumped into the reservoirs. The removal of the house,
nod of the earth thrown In at thin place, would allow the
current to flow aloig tho south front of the Farit aud
carry away tbe preevut accumulated mud, and. rebtore
the river nearly to its original condition. Either this
most be done or the river must be filled in to a conside
rable distance from the pr+seut shore lice, otherwise the
stagnant couditiou of the watnr and want of depth will
lead to putrefaction. The water from this poiut is ia
part mixed with that supplied to the reservoir, and ma
terially affects the salubrity of the city supply.
The surveys of the river have shown that the debris
which is brought down by fresbets and deposits in the
dam ia rapidly filling it up. Iu a few years there will be
an extensive foundation of solid land near tho western
bank of the river, commencing below tbe Girard-avenue
Bridge, and extending smith below the Twenty-fourth
ward work*, filling up nearly one-half the river. A simi
lar deposit is forming above the bridge, alio near the
western side. During tbe‘■summer mouths there is a
marked difference In character between the wat A r flowing
over this mud and that in the channel of the river.
The Tax Kate for 1862. — 1 t is pro
bnble that tbe Committee on Finance of City Councils
will report, at tbeir meeting this afternoon, relative to
the tax rates for 1562. The committee, we understand,
have agreed to rec*n>meud $2 10 on an increase
of ton oonu over tho tax of lait ?oar. The calculations
have been based upon the following statement of the lift*
liilUits and assets of tho city for the present year:

Some of tbe members of the committee centeuded that
52.10 was not sufficient, as it would not enable the city
to relieve herself from tho temporary loan now due,
which was made to meet the inti rest falling due ou the
Ist of January, 1562. Again, iu tbe assets of the city,
the loan to pay outsianding warrants is put down at par,
but ulitoli cannot bo rcaHzul if Councils direct it to bo
soldfoiThwith so as to pay of tho warrants. .
I ron-clad Steamers for Coast Pe
FENCE —Since tbe recent manaiuvrings of the rebel) in
llsipptott KpftdMltf utteutiOß of tli# CrtfToroDpmi has
Umi directed to the necessity of providing tho different
great maritime ports aad rivers of the Stales with suita
ble uu axis of defence, and proposals have been invited
with that end iu view: and tbe Navy Department is about
to have constructed irou-clad boats of three different de
fcj iptions. Those forth? rivers are to bo of light drangnt,
the propell'»|g power to bo given by the uese of aide wheels.
Tho vessels intended for tho harbors are to draw noi
more than twelve feet of water, when fully equipped,
and to Lave screws) those for coast defence to draw not
more than twenty feet of water, and also to have the
gerfew propeller attached. *
The bulls of the vessels are to be principally of wood
and iron ; the outside of the hulls to be clad with iron
vifttoa of sufficient thick&tfa to reeiet the moss improved
style ol naval projectile. The armament for the coaif
defence vessels will consist of one or two 15 or 20-inch
rifled guns, and that cf the river and harbor boats will
consist of one or more 11-incb guns. The Government
invites proposals for their construction at an early day.
Counterfeit Notes in Circulation.
—The issuing of small notes by the banka of this aod
other cities has given counterfeiters a larger field for car
rying on their opeiations. Each day there seems* to be a
new addition to tho floating stock of scoundreliam, and
the public cannot bo too cautious iu receiving bank notes.
The cumiiDs roeuenuho manage to elude the vigilance cf
deti-CMves are always careful to n xticipate tbe publication
of Peterson-, and to put iuto circulation a fresh batch
simultaneously with tbe issue of the Detectors. Bence,
these are no guide till' after tho public have realized the
infliction of a new swindle. Tbe honest portion of the
community usually suffer mo&t from thi.s evil, nine© there
is mm class, but slightly removed from tho counterfoils
in guilt, to whom, it matters but little whether the notes
they receive are good or bad. Tb«-y make it a point to
lose Dotliing by them, and if a bad bill is returned to
them they pbbs it to some one eleo, repeating the act until
the bnpineef can no longer be traced to them. They thus
become psrtjjers iu tbe guilt—willing to wrong others be
came they nefre been victimized, as if tbLd would justify
that.
liqtjor Without License Ycstcr
day, in the Court of Quarter Sessions, a woman named
Hrees was put on trial, charged with selling liquor with
out a licenses at her house on Germantown road, above
Second street. The uiaiu witness was Mr. ALcemus. the
cciurfabio of the Sixteenth ward, who testified that Mrs.
S kept a lngur-beer saloon, &c.; that she was a sickly
wonittD. The jury rendered a verdict of guilty,
Mr. Mann suggested to the judge that mercy should be
given iu this case. The woman appears to be very sick.
Tho judge told her she might go home, os he would sus
perd judgment for the present.
Dennis Riley was charged with Felling liquor without
a license, at a house near Frankford road and Allen street.
The constable stated tlat he had seen liquor, half a turn
bleiful, sold there for three cents, and a man drink it.
The defence set up a wholesale-liquor license, taken out
in last October. Verd ct, guilty. *

A Pe sir able Change.— The hotel
on Chestnut street, above Sixth, occupied a G&icert
Saloon, will, in a few days, be redeemed aud devoted to
its former legitimate uses, under the management of
Jeremiah McKibbin, Ebq., the late proprietor of the
Merchants’ Hotel. The former place, at oue time well
known as Jones Hotel, has been occupied at two different
periods by negro inimtrels and <£ pretty waiter girls.” At
the time of the breaking oitf of rebellion it was occu*»
pied as a recruiting rendezvous. The change from a
“ Concert Sa:oon ” to a hotel will be a decided improve
ment in the neighborhood. Similar improvements might
be made not far from the office of The Press, which
would prove quite beneficial to our citizens at large.
Who are Entitled to Pensions.—
It has been decided that all disabled seldiers of the three
years-of-war men are entitled to invalid pensions under

giving pensions to widows and orphans of deceased sol
diers of tho present war.

ft daring mail robbery was perpetratorat the York
station-house, ou the Northern Central Railroad, by the
abstraction tho mail mat tor from ft ponch containing
the letters, Ac , for Harrisburg and the interior of Penn
sylvania. The pouch wan sent to the statiou-houße
about 9 o’clock that evening, and was awaiting the ar
lival of tho midnight train when the robbery was com
mitted. The fact was only discovered when two boys
found the pouch* minus tho contents, with a slit cut in
it, under the platform of the station-house.
