With the MIL or August the back of a summer, in this particular tell of latitude, may be set down as broken. September hereabouts is among the most enjoyable months in the calendar. October may be set down as ditto. Though the air of the night may be nipping, to even the invalid, the four middle hours of the day possess all the mellowness that characterises the core of the Italian canteleup. For thiCi reason, while we pity the dweller in the. cli mate of the Tropics, we hurrah for our own— a climate in which mosquitoes and prickly heat alike cease troubling you after October, and where polkas and sleigh bells come in with the advent of December. —The wanner in which the sharp-shooters do up their shooting at the Selnitzenfest is a übject-of—adroiration_F_rom_the_ski that_ these marksmen are manifesting, an idea of what the Prussians can do with their needle= guns need no longer remain a conjecture.

METHODISM IN ENGL An American Bishop Before an Englisla Conference At the Wesleyan Conference 'held at- Burs km, England, on the 28th of July, the greater part of the session was taken up with the re ception of .Bishop Simpson, of the Methodist Episcupal - Church the„UnitedStates., The report in the !Auden Ttitics says: " At half-past twelve o'clock Bishop Simp son and Bev. E. Roster, D. D., were intro duced to the Conference on Friday by Presi dent Farrar. Bishop Simpson and Doctor Foitter are the deputation appointed by the American Methodist Episcopal General Con ference. They brotight with them the pa ternal address of their conference to the English Conference, which was read by Dr. James, and referred to the abolition of slavery in America in very grateful terms.• Two con ferences of color bad been - received into the: General Conference. The two colored Con ferences contain 121 ministers of color and 26,487 colon d members. Caste and its evils were entirely destroyed among them - , and th.-' colored people were admitted to equal rights and privileges of the Methodist Episcopal Church. The Methodist Episcopal Church had 1,146,081 members, and 11,121 churches. Their church property was worth some 545,- 835,439. By the movement' in connection with the centenary of Methodism in America, they had raised for general church purposes the sum of 88,397,662. " Bishop Simpson then addressed the Con ference, and said, in substance, mingled emo tions arose in his bosom on finding himself once more among them. Methodism was a family all over the world, and they all looked upon England as the old homestead.• The Methodist circle was enlarging every year, and lie believed it was destined to take in the circumference of the globe. He felt a shadow of gloom come over him when he remembered that Bishop Kingsley, one of their American ministers, who was on his way to England. had died suddenly in Palestine. Thirteen years ago, lie (Bishop Simpson) was received in the Irish Conference by Dr. Hannah, Rev. It. Young and Rev. F. West; all these men were now gone to their final rest. He con trasted his position with what he was thirteen years ago. Their Church had always pro tested against slavery, and when the great struggle came their sons and brothers were faithful to the cause of liberty. The colored people of the South looked upon the Metho dist Episcopal Church as their faithful friends. In additiod to the colored Conferences of the South, they had other Conferences, in which were included white ministers as well as ministers of color. Many of the colored population were being educated, and he be lieved a large number of them would go to Africa and regenerate the land, so that tlu• wealth of man should praise God, and Ethic pia should stretch out her hands to Hint The people of all nations were going to Meer• ica. People of all nations were_becoming cite zens of America, and many languages were spoken in the States, and he believed that the great conflict of truth and error would be set tled in America. As an American,• he had confidence in the institutions of his country, but he looked to the spirit and power of Chris- Manny to assimilate the diversities of the American population into one common and united Christian nation. Bishop Simpson Ilien made reference to the vast extent of the Christian mission field occupied by the Ameri can Methodist Episcopal Church. The great lesson he drew from that missionary sneers, was that if the churches would go on in fair. and do their duty the whole world Would ht given to Christ. Ile referred to the ouestioi „t . commerce, and said that this, to, would become increasingly an instru mem for the spread of Christianity. Chris 41)el)t much time upon the Sea of Galilee, an; i ;hat prefigured that Christ! nu would lie lord of the sea. Speaking of the progress of Me thodism in America during the last thirteen tears, he said that While the American popu lation had increased per cent. the Wesl;:yan church had increased over 50 per cent, during hat tune. For the last three years they hail increased the amount of their church property at au annual rate of six million dollars, and during the last dye years, owing to the cen tenary movement, the value-of their church property has been doubled. Notwithstanding . the speculations and controversies in Ame riea, the American \Vesleyans were unshaken 1 1 -in their altachinent to evangelical truth. They 'ttire - WesleyansHiiilered in Some things- as to their polity, but the essentials to their ecclesias tical principles were_ the same. Ho believed that two things accounted for the success of etbodisni—,the presence of God in the midst . . of themi - and the co-operation-of all the parts and peoples of their churches for the spread of Christianity. Be believed that Methodism would be the chief antagonist of Popery. People yearned for the presence of God, and the influence of vestments and ceremonies in The Church of Rome was very great. Ritua, lien; would influense-Obpie yuiwerfully who believed that 6}ott's - Presence was connected with such things. There was one doctrine held by the NI ethodists which would counter a;:t.the errors of-Rotuanistu and Ritualism— p ILA DELERIA E VENI.NG BULLWIIIN, TUESD Al', AUGUST 16,1870. viz.: That God spoke directly to the human -heart. In America they were .endeavoring secure a-general union of-all the Methodist churches in one, and' now that silaver,y-wa abolished thereWa.4 no essential bar to their Union. Bishop Simpsou's speech was toned to with great delight by the entire Con ference. ! Ile Makes a Trip to Caroadelet avid His = rtiritaPiCrtre - ititarSt7of7the7Maj7it7lrOtb . (From the St. Louie Republican, Aujc,l2.l President Grant, yesterday, made a rural excursion to his farm on. the Gravois road, visiting in the course of the trip over Caron delet commons., where he made investigations of some interests held by him in the Sigersou _tract, Bear theriver des Peres. Ho was ac companied by Captain C. W. Ford, General Dent, Captain John Magwire and Mr. Calvin Burns. Master U. S. Grant was already at the farm, having gone there the'day before. The farm is carried on by a relative of Gen. Grant, who entertained theparty, and pro vided a substantial dinner. The President -Owns between-300-and 400 acres, a-portion of which was offered to the county court for county farm at $75,000. The proposition, we believe, has been withdrawn. The aelits . J.,anliam & Long,are authorized to 1,-~c1:-- cii - ffulasti some &Rae su Tiara - Mt the farm in order to square the boundaries. The old-homestead was built by Judge Long's father, who sold out to Judge Dent, since which it has come into the possession of Gen eral Grant by purchase. A new and hand .some two-story brick building has been erected on the place, and possibly the owner contemplates making it his retreat when, "beaten by the storms ot' state," he retires from public life. The place must be full of cheerful reminiscences to the President. Here he learned to plow and make cordwood, and, no doubt s furnished the original scene of the touching colored engraving of "Grant's boy hood," in which the embryo ruler is portrayed in a shirt of the brightestred, with a heroic face, urging along a magnificent horse, of ,the brightest possible bay. About a mile from the homestead is a small hamlet, com posed of three or four houses, a blacksmith shop, a saloon and a post-office. This delight ful Sylvan village, is named Georgetown. It has been suggested to change 'the name to Giautville ; but no positive action has been taken in the matter yet. The Grant farm ha no very extraordinary features. It is in a good state of cultivation. The slopes have been generally denuded of their pristine groWth of blackjacks,: whieb,--., at, an _:early., clay; whacked into cordwood and hauled to the city. The road over " Gravois wherein muddy seasons loaded teams were often stalled, has been mactulamized,in consequence of which good deal of hard swearing is an nually saved. After dinner the party sauntered over the fields, examined the crop , and admired the various limpid springs which burst musically from the earth as it' to welcome the ruler of the great eternal Yankee nation. After visiting this scone of rural en joyment the President and his friends returned to the city, the shower having prevented visit to I •afayette Park to enjoy the music at the invitation of Mt'. G. W. bryer. Arriving iu the city the Presidential:party - repaired 1,, the residence of Judge Long, No. 2133 Gantt)]. avenue, where they partook of supper, an- i enjoyed all the hospitalities which' ,Tudg , Lung's experience could suggest. In the evening the President returned to quarters at Mr. Benton's, where he re ceived calls from a number o: citizens and had a special. interview. with Colonel Crittenden, of Warrensburg, iu re fel ence to the removal from Cuba of the re mains of a relative buried in that island during the Lopez expedition. -The Presideni will visit 'Change to-day, about 12 o'clock;and it is expected during the day will receive th emmitt(!fi'On- behalf of the FeuiauvriAoner- It is probable that the i•equest of the Commit tee will he tinder advisement, with an a, sera bee that the matter, involving, as it (hies in some measure, relations with - anoth-r gevernment, will be brought to the attention f his Cabinet at the earliest period after his return to Washington.
