Cook Once More lie In Permitted to lleklKa from the Church A Spirited Debate. The New York Methodist Conference (East) convened yesterday in New York city. In the course of the proceedings, the eleventh discipli nary question, "Are all the preachers blameless in life and conversation ?" was called up, and under this head the case of the Kev. Horace Cooke was considered. The church was crowded In anticipation of it. The feminine portion of the congregation was unusually large, and the most eager interest was manifested as the name of the recreant pastor was called. When Bishop Ames asked, in conformity with wage, was there anything to be alleged against him, the Kcv. II. F. Tease, as his Presiding Elder, responded: In this caee, brethren, which you all under stand, I will simply say that Mr. Cooke has sent me his parchments, with a letter requesting the privilege of withdrawing from the conference, it has been our custom to allow ministers to withdraw, and, as I believe our only object is to keep the Church pure, and not to punish men for their sins, I move that he ba permitted to tv i tli d ro Wo The Kev. Mr. Ross I would ask the Presiding Elder if he had not sutlicient evidence to arrest him, so that his withdrawal should be impossi ble ? I object to this case being slurred over or whitewashed. The Rev. Dr. Feasc There was sufficient opportunity to arrest Cooke and arraign him before a committee; but it was so near the ses sion of the conference, I bad no disposition, to exercise any of the functions of the ministry in the case. After taking counsel with men high in the ministry, we concluded no good would come of biimring the case before a committee, which, at most, could only suspend the oi lender; so I concluded to let it lie over to the eesMon of conference. The Kev. Mr. Koss That answer Is not satis factory, because you pronouuee it u crime for suspension. The Rev. Mr. Tease I said a committee of Inquiry could only suspend. The Ref. Air. Scudder Is this a withdrawal from the Church or the conference ? The Rev. Mr. Pease replied that one was equivalent to the other. The Kev. Air. nooie mis motion striKes me unfavorably. I have a sympathy, a conscience; and my conscience tells me it is not right. We do not desire to punish men; nevertheless, there is a prerogative that conference holds of expel ling a man who pleads guilty. The public are looking anxiously to know what tha conference will do in this case. Mr. Cooke, if he has made admission of his guilt, is well worthy of expul sion. Allow him to withdraw, and the public will never receive that decision. I believe he ought to be expelled. I do not believe the con ference will be approved by public sentiment if you pass thlt notice. The Rev. Mr. Woodruff This has been to Methodism the saddest trial of her life. We are - humbled in the dust. I think ho ought to have come to the bar of this house and said-. 'Brethren, if may call you brethren, I come before you to acknowledge my error. Expel Hie. Turn me out from among you." It is not for ns to move that he be expelled; it is his to come and ask. But the Elder is right. Let the reporters take down that we take notice of the withdrawal only because we have no wish nor desire to inflict pains or penalties, but only to clear the Church of all responsibility in this thing. The Kev. Mr. Scudder I will vote for the notion. But one thing perplexes me. When ever this man wants, be can come to the same church, or any other church, and bo immedi ately admitted without confession or contrition. I am afraid it may be dangerous, Brother Pease. There is a great deal of the dramatic about this whole affair. I do not believe that putting on mourning for the matter, according to the sug gestion of Brother Woodruff, is going to make us any better in the community. Such things have happened Blnce the time of Judas. It does not shake my confidence in God or the Church in t he least. The Rev. Mr. Mallory If the brother wants to withdraw, let him go peaceably. It a man comes into my house without business, aud I desire him to leave and he does so, there is no use in thrusting him out forcibly. It makes a tremendous breeze in the Church to kick a man out. The Rev. Mr. Kelscy When this brother ap plies by bis representative at the bar and ask s the privilege of withdrawing, ho confesses all alhgidagainBthlm to be true. Brother Scud der Is afraid to find him trying to enter the Church again. I am not afraid of that; I hope he will. (A. voice "And get to Heaven.") He has committed a deep disgrace, and probably irreparable damage to bis reputation in this world, but I hope he will be saved, that his soul will be saved. If I were a pastor aud he in my jurisdiction, I should be glad to see him come back humbling himself. We read in sacred writings that even harlots shall enter heaven, and I hope this man will come back some time. The Kev. Mr. Koss I think there is some thing due to the Church. There has not been one word of reproof or condemnation of the Injury done to the Church. Allow him to wlth- draw, and he may put what interpretation ho likes upon the permission. I hope it will not be granted. The Rev. Mr. Pease said it was customary with some denominations in such casos to allow the withdrawal, and direct the Secretary to enter a minute of the circumstances upon the official record. He thought this would meet the exlgeucy of this case. We cannot censure, said he, we cannot expel a brother member of this conference without a trial. And I see no good to the Church or to the injured family by holding one. The Kev. Mr. Roche It may not be a question whether expulsion is eondiirn. It may be me rited, but he cannot be expelled without being tried. Are we prepared now to try him? lhe idea of whitewashing is worn out. The end in view is not punUbment of individual crime, but the purity of the Church. This is simply a ques tion what the purity of the Church demand, May we not allow the person to withdraw? lu conclusion, view the case from any standpoint. It is not without embarrassment. I have no theory to account for this case. On the prin dale of depravity, or of insanity, or of mental imbecility, we are alike embarrassed. But we cannot expel him. I blush when I walk the street. It la not with us as in Rome, where they excommunicate and anathematize. Though the crime be of Ethiopian blackness, thovgh the criminal be a leopard with all its spots, if we ay spare his wife and family, my impression is we ought to d it. ' There was here some competition to get the floor. Bishop Ames When 3'ou see the prnricnt, hateful curiosity which crowds this church this rainy morning, for the sake of the Lord let us bo done. (Cries of "Vote!" "Vote!") The Rev. O. L. Taylor, in conjunction with the Rev. Mr. 8cudder, framed the following form of resolution: , It being understood brthls conference thatTTorace Cooke, having resigned his parchments, thereby confei sing his criminal unfitness to remain lu the Church or the ministry, therefore JUnolved, That his request to withdraw be granted. The phrase "criminal unfitness" was the sub ject of discussion, some members desiring a stronger term. The Rev. Mr. Taylor said he wanted to make it as mild as was consistent with his responsi bility to the Church. The resolution passed, the Secretary being In structed to record it on the minutes. This case being settled, the attraction to many people In the church was over, and they went out. The principal members of the family of the young lady involved were in the church, but the young lady herself was absent, being, it was said, sick. It was reported her father had strongly expreoned himself against permitting Cooke to withdraw. THE FRESCH CRISIS. The New Henntne Connultnm The Change rroponrti uy a. The following is the Senatus Consultum sub mitted by the Emperor's order to the French Senate on the 28th of March, the action of the Senate upon which, it is thought, will be com pleted before the plebiscitum is taken: Article 1. The Senate shares the legislative power with the Emperor and the legislative body, and possesses the right of initiating laws. Nevertheless all bills for the taxation of the country must be first voted by the Legislative Body. Article 2. The number of Senators may bo raised to two-thirds of the number of members of the Legislative Body, without including the Senators who hold their seats by right. The Emperor cannot nominate more than twenty Senators annually. Article 3. The constituent power belonging to the Senate by virtue of article 81 and article 33 of the Constitution of the 14th of January, 1852, ceases to exist. Article 4. The stipulations annexed to the present benatus Consultum, which are com prised in the plebiscita of the 14th and 21st of December, 1851, aud of the 21st and 23d of No vember, 1852, or resulting therefrom, form the Constitution of the empire. Article 5. The constitution can only be modi fied by the people on the proposition of the Em peror. Article 6. Paragraph 2 of article 25. and the articles 19, 20, 27, 28, 2'J, 30, 31, 32, 33, 33, 40 41, 52, and 67 of the constitution, as well as all legislation contrary to the present Henalus Con sultum, are abrogated without prejudice to the abrogation resulting from the plebiscitum of the 21st and 22d Of November, 1852, aud the tienalus Consulta promulgated, notably that of the 8th of September, 18UU. Article 7. Those portions of the constitution of the 14th of January, 1852, and of the Henatus Consulta 6ince promulgated, which are not abrogated formally or by implication, or are not reproduced in the appeudix to article 4, will have force of law. The following are the principal articles of the Constitution referred to above, all of them, ex cept the first sentence of article 25, being abro gated by the new Henatus Consultum: Article 25. The Senate is the guardian of the fundamental pact and of the public liberties. No law can be promulgated without having been first submitted to it. Article 2G.The Senate opposes the promulgation first, of laws which are contrary to or which in volve an attack on the Constitution, religion, morality, freedom of worship, individual liberty, the equality of citizens before the law, the in violability of property, and the principle of the Irremovability of the magistracy; second, laws which might compromise the defense of terri tory. Artlclo 27. The Senate regulates1 by a fknatus Consultant first, the constitution of the colonies and Algeria; second, all that has not been provided for by the constitution, and which is necessary to its operation; third, the meaning of the arti cles of the constitution which give rise to dif ferent interpretations. Article 29. The Senate maintains or annuls all the acts which are referred to it by the govern ment as unconstitutional, or are denounced for the same reason by the petitions of citizens. Article 30. The Senate can, la a report ad dressed to the Emperor, lay down the basis of projects of law of great national interest. Article 31. It can also propose modifications in the constitution, it the proposition is adopted by the Executive, it is enacted by a Senatus Consultum Article 83. In the case of the i o! utlon of the Legislative Body, and until the new convert tion. the Senate, on the proposltiot of tne Pre sldent of the republic, provides by measures ot urgency for all that is necessary to the carrying on oi the government. The Pall Mall Gazelle of March 30 publishes the following remarks on the subject: In order to appreciate the practical conse quencesof the modifications which have just been made in the constitution ot toe rreucu Senate, it is necessary to bear in mind the pecu liar position which that body has hitherto occu pied in the svstcra of the second empire. The key to the constitution of 1852 is to be found in Louis .Napoleon s declaration tnat mo social fabric of France had been "regenerated by the revolution of '89 and organized by the Em peror" (meaning, of course, his uncle), and that this organization was the one which I et suited the temper and conditions of the people, lhe re public was still in existence when this new constitution was promulgated, the institutions of the empire, including the Senate and the Council of .State, beiutr first revived before the empire itself was formally re-established. The Senate so Louis Napoleon announced in the proclamations of the 14th of January, 1853 was to be "no longer like the Chamber of Peers, the pale reflex of the Chamber of Deputies, repeal ing, after some days of interval, the same discus sions in another tone. It was to fill a "great and independent role, having the Constitution oi the country undor its special cnarge. SHOCKING AFFAIR. An Inane Woman Huron her Child to Death. A correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette, writing from Newcastle, Ind., April 7, says: Our town was this morning the scene of a most heart-rendine homicide. The wife of Mr. William Redding has been insane for some two years, with occasional lucid intervals. She has at numerous times attempted to take her own life, well-nigh succeeding ouce by hanging and one by cutting her throat; but never until this morning nas sue ruuue any serious attempt to take the life of any one else, although her hus band had lived lu continual fear for the safety of bis three children, eeiuom lias he ventured to leave them for any time in her care. She has seemed rational enougu now for some time; has been attending to the duties of her boute, and it was hoped she was iu a fair way to entirely recover. This moraing about 7 o'clocH, while her husband was working just outeide the house, at the yard feuce, she was dreEeing the children. The baby, nine months nlri. was in her lap. She spoke to the eldest boy (some ten years old) and asked him, "What If I should burn the baby ?" The boy answered that ha would eo and tell pa ll she did. and Im mediately started out to where his father was ISo sooner was she left alone than the dellbe- ratcly put the baby Into the stove and shut the stove door, and then went out and told her husband what she had done, lie instantly rushed in and took it out. Its face and arms and all the front part of its body were burned into a crisp. Death camo to the relief of the little sufferer at 10 o'clock, after three hours of the most Intense suffering. The mother seems frantic with grief for a moment, and then re lapses into an utter want of realization of the situation. . . - . JIETU0D1SM. Tbe Mortality Among the Blnliopa -An Extra Beulon of the Ueneml Conference Neces sary. The Methodist Episcopal Church has of late suffered in a remarkable manner from the death or retirement of its leading men. At the close of last year there were nine Vishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church (North), viz.: Thomas A. Morris, Edmund 8. Janes, Levi Scott, Mathew Simpson, Osnion C. Baker, Edward R. Ames. Davis W. Clark, Edward Thomson, and Calvin Klngslcy. The last two have recently died. Bishop Morris is unable to attend to any duties, and is gradually sinking into the grave. Bishop Janes is very feeble, and scarcely able to attend to his duties. Bishop Scott, through increasing Infirmities, is able to do but little otficlal work. Bishop Clark has recently had apoplectic attacks, leaving the work largely to Bishops Janes, Simpson, and Ames. The death of Bishop Klngslcy, and the failing health of others, renders it probable that an extra session of the General Conference will soon be called, which, if done, will be the first time in the history of the M. E. Church that such oieetfog has been held. The Discipline provides for this emergency In Part II, chap. I, sec. 1, and is as follows: The General Conference shall meet on the first day of May, in the year of our Lord 1H12, In the city of New York, and thenceforward on the first day of Ma;, once in four years perpetually, In such place or places as Bnau tie uxeu on oy tne uonerai coher ence frm time to time, but the General Superin tendents, or a majority of them, by or with the ad vice or two-thirds or ail tne Annual conferences, or. If there be no General Superintendents, two-thirds of all the Annual Conferences shall have power to call an extra session of the General Conference at any time, to be constituted In the usual way. There are about seventy Annual Conferences in the Church, and it will require two-thirds of them to call the extra session. THE AMENDMENT IN BROOKLYN. The Academy Crowded Hpeechea by Nona- tor Kevels,IIenrv Ward Beecher, and Others Cane Presented to the Colored Senator. The Academy in Brooklyn was crowded last evening. The band of the 23d Regiment occu pied the orchestra. The rear of the stage was occupied by colored youths. Among the gentle men who had seats near the centre of the stage were Senator H. R. Kevels, the Kev. U. Ward Becchcr, the Rev. II. II. Garnett, the Kev. C. B. Rav, Bishop Campbell, and C. Lorsey, Esq. The Kev. liyiand Gamou naving beou intro duced, said that he had been handed a gold headed ebony cane by Miss Thompson, of Balti more, and the two Misses Mitford, of New York, to place in tne nana or csenator Keveis. This he begged to do, and he forthwith gave it to the Senator, saying: I . believe the head is gold and the other part ebony; they look very well together, but, to tell you the truth, the ebony has become pure gold in these days. The fif teenth amendment is a great thing; it places a colored man on an equality with the Irishman and the Dutchman. The Rev. Henry Ward Beecher said: My friends, we are assembled here to hold a Jubilee over a great victory which has been wen after many and serious difficulties. It has been the business of my life to light for liberty lu my country. It was said that the colored man had no manhood. that he was lazy, and that If he was taken from the plantation would become a nuisance la the country. But how nobly have you answered those taunts in the hour of your trial I There are no classes more seir-respecting, more Drave, or more nungry after education. My friends, I tender you the most cordial greotlng, and hope that this great example may oe ronoweu in au countries oi tne giooe. Air. Beecher then turned to senator Kevels, and said: "Sir. I tender to you the right hand of friendship (erasning the Senator's hand). Fellow-citizens. I introduce to you your fellow-citizen, Senator Revels, oi tne united states senate. Senator Revels spoke briefly, reading from manuscript, in eulogy of that amendment to the constitution wnicn uad entrancmsea his race. General W oodford and Theodore Tilton also spoke. GRANT. The I.nut Blander Nailed The President Not a uaimav vmo neat. Mr. Church, of the Army and A'avy Journal, writes to the N. Y. Tribune as follows: As I am cognizant of the circumstances, will vou permit me to contradict the story published in some of the papers, to the effect that Presi dent Grant and bis party declined to pay their fare over the Hudson Klvcr Katiroad until the conductor threatened to detach their car ? The story is maliciously untrue as told. The lore was paid at once, and without remon strance, as soon as it was ascertained that the conductor bad authority to collect it. a doubt about this arose from the fact that the President and his party travelled as far as New York in a special car. courteously placed at their disposal. to atteuu tne lunerai ot ueuerai i nomas, dv tne scent of the railroads between here and Wash ington. It was understood that this arrange ment extended to Troy, and the conductor was simply refened to the ugeat of the road for in formation. As soon as they were informed that he had no instructions from the company, the President's party paid their fare, and there was no such scene as described. SINGULAR AC I 1DENT.

Increase of the Naval Force. Spttial Despatch to The Evening Telegraph, Washington, April 12. As the number of men at present allowed by act of Congress in the navy, 8500. Is bo small as not to meet the require ments or Interests of the naval service, Secretary Robeson, in addition to his annual report, has addressed a lengthy communication to Congress setting forth the requirements of the service and the importance of more men, and earnestly requests that the act of June 17, 18C8, may be so amended as to authorize fifteen hundred more seamen, ordinary seamen, machinists, firemen, coal heavers, and boys. The shipment of boys, which is very essential, has now to be dispensed with, thus cutting off a future supply of active and trained seamen for the navy. ' Naval Items. ' Despatches have been received at the Navy Department from Havana stating that the Prus sian ecb.ool-sb.lp Niobe, with classes of midship men, is shortly expected at that port, and will, after a brief stay, proceed thenco to Annapolis, to allow the middles a chance of seeing our American candidates for naval honors. The President nominated to the Senate to-day Poymaster John n. Stevenson to be advanced fifteen numbers in his grade for extraordinary heroism during the late Rebellion; also, John C. Wise to be an Assistant Surgeon in the navy. Secretary Robeson has accepted the resigna tion of First Assistant Engineer S. Wilkens Cragg, United States Navy, who is now in Paris. - FROM THE WEST.

Jlerald, , "The week onened on fair activity in Wall street. bnt as the day progressed the storm checked opera tions, while a disposition was manifested to wait further developments in and test the extent aud Rincpntv of the movement in geld. "The impression Is quite general that the move ment was auxiliary and subsidiary to a movement to enable the stock cliques to unload the burdens which thev have so patiently carried ever since New Year's. When, a mouth back, it became evident that some stratagem was necessary to enable this transfer, attention was directed to the fact that one of the leading banking houses making ex- chanira a SDectalty were quietly absorbing what ever commercial bills were thrown on the market In the exportation of produce. At the time it was sunDosed that the firm were simply protecting them selves aud transacting an ordinary and legitimate business, it seems now, nowever, inutiuey were then In league with some of tha cliques desirous of unloading stocks, and that they lent material and valuable assistance the result belug the movement which was discovered on Friday last, and which to day put gold up to 114. The combination have purchased an Immense quantity of the precious metal, and the advance has been but trifling in contrast to the magnitude of their operations. The clearances to-day were cIobc on to a hundred millions. It Is to be doubted whether the gold move- incut can succeed in the face of tho many obstacles which it Is sure to encounter, commercial and politi cally. J uere is a vast quauuiy oi prouueo in morn ut our Atlantic ports and In the Western elevators ready to go aboard ship the instant gold advances mm or two nur cent., while it mnv ba set down for a certain fact that the present administration at Wa hingtou will act in hostility to any coinoinaiioa who may conttpire to Impeach the public crudlt. Fink's 'n'hantuiu aold' will not be sulferud to stride the political stage again. Something of these reasons geciueu to inuueuce Heavy suies wiwwun mo uiuau of the day. under which the nriue declined to 113. "The speculative movement in the Foreign Ex change market was still more evident to-day In a sudden advance of a quarter per cent. In rates for Hterlliur. These onolattous were malulained In the buslneiisfor to-morrow s steamer, but the market closed weak at the advanced quotations. "The higher range of the gold market Induced a higher and moderately active market for the Gov. eminent list, the foreign bankers being purchasers on account of the better facilities tor placing ex- cluinirc. the advance In which and the higher price for gold left a margin of profit ou shipments of boiuis to Europe despite ttie lower quotation 01 nve tweutles abroad to-day. The foreign markets were rennrted dull and lower. Their dullness Is attribu table to the fact that tne present la Holy Week a season observed with special ceremonies In Europe, the Interval to Easter belug almost a holiday. With the subsequent decline in geld to 113 tha market yielded to the lowest point of the day, and closed steady. The money marsei wan irregular, wun dtp wj seven per cent, as the extreme range of rates. The nignesi qnotation was mane ny inooe inieresien in the locking np of greenbacks Indicated In Saturday's ' bank statement. But the offerings at the close were more than ample at Ave to six percent.
