ROT. Professor Sines., of Michigan.
The Bey. Dr. Hurls read the Journal of
yesterday, which was approved.
The Committee on Eplseopaoy reported that
a Bishop him a right to divide a district upon
the decease of its Presiding Elder into two or
more sections, and appointing a minister over
each part with full powers of a Presiding Bi
der.
Also, that there is nothing in the discipline
prohibiting a Presiding Bider from being
natio:led at the time he holds that orate.
They also report that, when a auperannetated
member of a ehmer Conference, residing in
the bounds of a Conference, concludes to
withdraw from the Church, the Presiding El
der cannot give him a certificate of with
drawal. The report was adopted.
The committee on the Book Concern reported
that the book agents at Cincinnati be-directed
to-publish a paper in the Swedish language,
if they find it can be done without serious lose
to the Concern. The report was adopted.
The committee on Sunday Schools made a
report ocntaining the following statistics
in 1163 the church had 13,083 schools ; in
those there were 247,532 teachers and 344,706
eoholars. Conversions during the term of past
four years, 70,000.
The report speaks of the ability of the Rev.
Dr. Wise, the editor of Sunday School peri
odioale and recommends the Sunday School
Teacile;•' Josteneti, and acknowledges the sue
ease of the cause of Sunday Schools of the
charm: generally.
The report was adopted.
A resolution was passed that the Christian
cmgratulations of the body he presented to
the varicose bodies which have sent delegations
to this body, and that this Conference ap
point ministers to visit the Wesleyan body of
England, of Canado,:and also to the M. E.
Church in Canada.
The committee on Missions were instructed
~to inquire into the expediency of appointing
a *rest of prayer.
A resolution was passed against cheering
br stamping during the deliberation, of the
Conference.
-"The report of thn committee on Rituals was
taken up, relating to the form of receiving
members into full communion with the church,
laying of a corner stone, and the dedication
of a church.
After mature deliberation the Committee
unanimously agreed to recommend the adop •
lion of these forms.
The Bev. Dr. Clark advocated the passage
of the report - and the adoption of these
forms.
The Rev. J. Owen, of California, moved
to amend by etriking out the word Holy
Ghost" and inserting " Holy Sprit." The
amendment was laid upon the table.
Rev. Mr. Peicher,of Michigan, was op. to Gm form or the reception of mem
bers, to it attaches to it too much dignity.
There seemed to him in these forms for the
laying of corner stones and the dedication of
chore:hies cuperititions reverence for extral
things
Mr. Coles, of lowa, was in favor of
these forms. Ile wanted the people to know
and feel that there is an ltaportanoo in these
forms, and a difference between the sanctity of
a consecrated hones and a common hall. Re
had no superstitions feeling, bat he was in
favor of order and solemnity In all the insti
tutions of religion.
Rev. A. S. McCoy, of Illinois, was in favor
of an abridgement of the proposed forms.
Rer. CoL Moody approved of the report of
the Committee in tote, because he is a Meal*
odiet. This came was given to John Wesley
because he did everything by method. The
repcirt is in accordance with the genius of
Methodism. lathe reception of members into
the body of Christ, a trifle ? Is the laying of
corner. stones or the dedication of churches a
minor matter ? These are great facts which
are epochs in the pOsltion of the Church.
Rev. Mr. Jerrie thought there was en im
portance and solemnity In these events which
ought to be Impressed upon the mind, and he
was In favor of the ritual reported by the Com
mittee. .
Rev. Dr. Hibbard repudiated the Idea some
of the speakers had advanced, that If these
forms are adopted, they will lake the liberty
et extemporising a form to suit themselves.
He thought such language unworthy of this
body, to be published and go out to the world.
Let us maintain these forms If adopted.
After careful deliberation, the previous
question was celled and orderednifter which
toe rote upon the report was taken, when it
was adopted by a unanimous vote, and the
Methodist Episcopal Church is thus placed in
possession of a ritual for these iterriceq.
The Philadelphia delegation wu made a
committee to receive and answer all invite,

Der. Dr. Hitchcock of Lock River Confer

great elarrness.
Bishop Simpson then took the chair.

the ground of the large increase of the work

The general summing np of yestor

from Inv.lle, Gem Grant, Hancock and
others announcing 11, the statern
the prisoners, the guns and colors w
have taken, the Inspiring news from But
er and Sigel that completed the circle of on
triumphs, sad made this the happiest day
Washington has known for many a month
this may bo left to the Assocl►ted Press to
toll. Meanwhile the followlng details just
received at this bureau from correspondents
on the battle ficldt, powers a tpecial
The battle of Thursday was the most deci•
sled IMMO. the Army of the Potomac has yet
attained, as well as the most desperate strug
gle of the eight days' fighting.
Early In the morning Hancock made a most
brilliant charge on the enemy's right, swoon
ing their two lines of breastworks, capturing
Tory pieces of artillery end air thousand
prisoners.
Following this a general attack began and
Continued furiously for 301310 fon• hours, whin
there was a 101 l up to elate hoar of the night.
Wednesday night had passed In inlet. The
battles of . the two preceding days had nerved
to show that the enemy's line in frontal Spott
eylvenla Court House was so fortified Mai to
attempt to, carry it by assault would have
bsen madness.
Bat one point in it had been found where
the works did not seem to defy our attempts
at charging upon them, and by a linguist
neidsoce that waa a point where tho
was almost a gap in our own Ilnes---between
Wright', k late Sedqwitles corps) and that of
Bunsido's.
Hitherto the enemy's policy had bum to
mum his forces and attack us in overwhelm
mg numbers. It was resolved, in part at
least, to give bim a taste of his own tactics.
Shortly before midnight, Wednesday night,
Hancock began moving. During the day he
had hold the extreme right. By hard march
ing, he paced in utmost silence along almost
the entire length of our lines and reached the
point between Wright and Bari:midi whore oar
lines were so thin.
Meanwhile, the enemy remembering that
on Wednesday they had suffered none from
any fire at this point,were giving it no atten
tion and bad no expootation of any attack in
this quarter. Their latest reconnoissances
had found Hancock on outright, and here
and from Ilnrnsidd they expected to meet the
brunt of the morning's assault.
The morning broke slow and dim, a heavy
mist overhung the field and concealed our
movements. The enemy were still waiting
for the attack on our tight, when, to theirut•
ter . and complete surprise, a hell of fire burst
oat at the unexpected point, where yesterday
they had found no opposition, and In an in
stant Hancack's whole corps was charging with
triumphant cheers and In magnificent style
over their outer row of breastwork,.
Stunned by the au ddbn and unexpitoted onsets
they were still true to their oft proved bravery'
rallying on - the instant, they made *the best
defence they could, and desperately contested
our further advance. It was splendid, but In
vain. Their lines melted away before oar
• resistless charge, bros.° into eddylngfragments
and were swept back on the gerce tide of the
attack. The outer line of breastwetko had
been carried with the first rush.
This brief fight ended in our sweeping over
the second and lapping our flank' around the
last and bravest of its defenders. Five thou.
sand prisoners, a whole division with Its com
mander, Major General Johnston at its head,
and battle flags without number. Bach were
the splendid sptrita with which Hancock thus
superbly begun the day..
Among the officers captured, beside the
Major General commanding the division, was
his brother, another Gen. Johnson, and Gen.
G.ll. Stuart, formerly of Baltimore, both com
manding brigades.
Oar brilliant success roused the highest
enthusiasm in the army, and the men seamed
as eager for the battle as they had been on
the first day in the Wilderness. Hancock's
gallant stroke was made just at the right time
and place, for at every other point theenemy's
works were very strong and well guarded. To
have made this attack in front would have
been most disastrous.
By eight o'clock a Grillo rein and bail

Our losses are very heavy, especially in
ofoere;and their reckless habit of going into
battle in Cull uniform adds immonaely to the
fatality among them.
General Wright is elightly wounded.
Hancock captured Johneton and his entire
division, nutubering three thourand, together
with over twenty piccos of artillery. A high
ly interesting interview teak place when
Johnston wait brought to headquarters.
Meads, and Johnston had been chums in the
old army in other days, and they readily re
avaised each other. Johnston was intro
duced to Grant, and a friendly chat ensued, in
whicb the fact was referred to that be and
Grant bad once occupied position. in tbo some
brigade.

oners that Gen. Wadsworth deed end buried

were many recognitions and an:loony inquir•

him trill, "Ed, I'm glad to see you." To
which Johnston, half facetiously and half
seriously replied "Well, Hunter, under the
circumstances, I am lot glad to see you."
He took the matter very philosophically, ;se
