The presiding elders of the various districts produce! khe recommendations of ten local preachers for ordina tion—five of that number for deacons, the i emaimng live lor elder’s orders. Bev. A. Brittain stated that if any member of the Con ference, or those identified with the body, had a claim upon the fctewardti they should now produce it The call ol tbs stewards was then imidu for the Com Terence collections) the result of which exhibited that the people among whom the ministers labor are not uimin 1- ful of the pecuniary necessities of those who ministered to Iheir fathers in the days of yore, giving at the same tioie a guarantee to those eflcctivc men now in the field, that they shall be enetuinni in nlil ago, and not be ca3tott uoDro> Tided far after spending iheir youth and manhood m the -church of God. This is a noble feature in Metboiisin, *ud worthy the admiration and imitation of all the family of Churches. The interrogatory as to whether the preachers’ characters were examined was again returned, commencing with the Bellefbnte district, Jamea Sauks pre eiding elder.

Ho complaints nade against those ministers under his care, with one exception, whose case was honorably adjusted to the creditor the accused through a court of inquiry composed of his brethren.

It has created a thirst for know ledge among the young of both sexes, by gratuitously loaning them interesting books wherefrom they have uot only been taught morality, but have been oubufitiavd during their leisure moments which they might invu idled away in profligacy. Last night the managers held their annual meeting, and presented the following facts, which appeared iu the report of the committee that had been appointed to pre pare tbe statistics *<t the library: Humber of books in the library at the present time, 27,460, of which 12,160 occupy tbu shelves of tho boys’ department, and in the girl* 1 ,2 st new bonks for the girls, and 200 for the boys, were purchased during 2661.

Lecture in Aid of the Port Roy- AL CONTRABANDS.—Last evening, Concert Hall was crowded with a highly intelligent audience, to listen to a lecture from Alias Annie E Dickinson on the “ Crist* of the Nation,” in aid of tho Port Royal contrabands. The Breaker appeared upon the occasion neatly attired, and was greeted with loud applause. She spoke in a loud* clear, ar.d distinct tone, jvi\4 hVf rSMfIVH;? elicited the most profound attention. The speaker, after alluding to our national troubles, continued by ascribing the cause of all to slavery.” She alluded briefly to the rise and progress of this evil in the different States, and condemned it in the strongest terms It was only a year ago, when tho Union was first threatened with destruction, that tho Peace and National Conventions assembled, and at that time dis cussed tho subject of slavery and offered more conces sions to preserve the country. If, then, slavery is the cause of the rebellion, sweep down the cause, kill slavery, crush it out of existence. It is said tho cotton States cannot live without slavery. If so. tho speaker would crush out their existence. Il is out-duty to use every thing in our power to protect ourselves, and if slavery stands in our way, aud is crushed, who ia to blame 1 N*t we. She held that emancipation was constitutional, because the Constitution holds that all men are horn free and equal, and was formed for our protection 4nd ftdfAi-4. K 6 oiie he deprived of liberty by tho laws of the United States. It you decide the slave to bo property, then he must be treated as any other property, and all should be confiscated. If some proclaimed by Union men, the latter should be com pul sated fairly, out the Blare should not be returned. If ftonthern Union men Are not willing to Buffer, then they are unworthy their country’s protection. [Applause.] You plead the humanity of liberating, and arming the slaves against their masters. They aro fighting against our fathers and brothers, by the sides of their mantors. How do you propose to fit tho slaves for as it is emb they are unfit to be free 1 The speaker denounced this in strong terms* ULd argued thoy would never be suited for freedom if forever held by the hand of tryanny. How wo read in this war of the slaves coming into camp, and of giving important information, and tnen sont back to bondage. The speaker further maintained that our snhlio a ware daily getting further Smith, where, in warm weather, thay would be swept off by thousands by diseases peculiar to those localities. Why not, then, form regiments of the blacks who live there, and are accustomed to tho cli mate. They could bold possession of the different points ss fast as occupied by our troops For more than ten months the South has held the North at bay, and until a decisive blow is struck by our cotnmander-la-clnef, McL'Mlan, the speaker sarcastically remarked that she would withhold all praises. [This sentence was received Trilhloud applause, into rminpleil with hiMes] She &{■ hided in brilliant terms to the removal of Gen. Fremont, whom she contended had accomplished more than all, and was on the eve of fighting a battle whi :h was fought by bis successor, three months nfti r. She thought it time to recognize the only true leader the people ha t in this canec=-one who ytm not afraid to inscribe on his banner freedom and liberty. [ApplaußC] For the first time iu the history of this nation, the President of the United States proclaims it boldly th it it is for freedom that we are fighting. Tlie speaker concluded her remarks amidst the most uproarious applause, and tho largo audience slowly re* tired. Death from a Fall.—Yesterday af terneon a boy, named Henry Chadwick, was instantly Rilled Dy falling down a hatchway, at the lager-beer brewery of Decker & Stepnaclior, near the Falla of Schuylkill. Tho coroner was notified to hold au inquest.

It may come up in Ibat body; if the Senate should tuko favorable action This is tlie only hope for any change in the law this ses sion. 5 he St. Louis Democrat of Saturday says: We have no change to report of tlie doings of the money mttiket to«day.

At the previous monthly meeting of the As- * BociatioD, hold in the Arch-Btreet Presbyterian Cfcurch, a committee was appointed to carry out a resolution thon passed, looking to the holding, in this city, of a State S«bbHth*BChool Conversion The chairm&u of that com mittee was ex-Governor Pollock, who, on its behalf, sub mitted the following report; The committee to make arrangements for holding a State Sabbath-school Convention, in tills city, report as follows: Tlmt a Kfnftrnl iimtnlionbti raten'lci tupMtw, super intenclOLts, teachers, aud friends of the Sabbath-scliool cause throughout the State, A special request is made for the appointment of at least cue delegate from each school.

Northern Central, Hearting, North Pennsylvania* and Cumberland Talley. Sansom-atreot Church has been selected as tho place for bolding tho Convention. Tho 28th day of May has boen suggested as the time. The eonimittoe, however, prefer that this meeting should fni Tim tune, This meeting is roßpoctfully nrgott to mako immediate and libers! arrangements for entertaining the delegate*. A circular lias t con proposed, as per copy herewith presented, which will be freely distributed throughout the State. Your committee ast the hearty co-operation 6f ill lh& friends of the can*e in tins city, to make tho proposed Convention one of great interest.

Iu nc cerduhed with this motion a eomwlitoo of sixteen, headed by George H. Stuart, Esq , was then appointed. Among ihe chief objects of the proposed Convention is, firft, to obtain an accurate view and stirvoy of the State in its .Sabbath-school aspect; aud secondly, to devise ways Hud means by which to impart increased vigor and efficiency to the Sabbath schools, reach the destitute dis tricts, and advance the general interests of the cause. The meeting wds.ditjmissed with a benediction, by tho Bov. John Chambers. Ax Extensive Carpet House It may not be generally known that among the manufactories of Philadelphia and her environs thero is numbered one of the largest and most celebrated Carpet Factories in Ame rica ; wo refer to tho Glgxi Echo Mills, at Germantown, of which Messrs. McCallum & Co. are the proprietors. The city varerooms of this firm are at No. 509 Chestnut street, opposite Independence Hall. In addition to their own manufactures, Messrs. McCallum & Co. are extensive importers. Their stock at the present time, in all its departments—including both Carpets and Oil Cloths, of every description—is very complete. In passing through the several stories of their spacious establishment, n few days sgo, wo wore Burpriaed at tho infinite variety} no* velty, aud beauty which their stock displayed. Their Spring trade has already set in with considerable activi ty, and, between the packages constantly receiving and those that are being shipped, there is an air of business life i»ud vitality about this hausa that shows good bottom and enterprise at the helm. For obvious reasons, the inducements held out by them to buyers aro very superior. They have, for years past, sold largely to jobbing houses in nil parts of the Union, not excepting New York aud Boston Many of their new designs, now for the first time offered to the trade, aro excot dingly tasteful, and, we doubt not, as the season advances, will be much eought after. John B. Godoii at me Academe op Music. —lt is not rash to predict that the two most attractive lectures of tho season are those to bo given by the world renowned temperance advocate, John B. Gough, Esq., at tho Academy of Musfcj on Thursday and Friday even ings of thin week. Almn&t enough reaerved-seat tickets, at fifty cents each, have already been sold to fill the par quet, parquet-circle, and balcony of that spacious edifice, and tbo sale of them continues unabated. The great popularity- of Mr. floa*.h with ail claase-, as an orator, in a field in which others offend quite as often as please, and his wonderful powers of description, Together with the fact that the lecture he is about to givo will be new to a Philadelphia audience, will secure for him an im mense audience. The price of tickets for the family circle and amphitheatre is twenty-five cents, and these will probably all be taken before Thursday evening. The Hutchinsons tuis Evening,,—A con-' cert by the Hutchinson Family is announced for thiß (Wednesday) evening, at the Spring Garden Institute, corner of Broad and Spring Garden stroets. Tho enter ttiinments of these celebrated vocalists are always plvufimgi fr?Bi the epicr stoMMter t>f tn? msr»<?>we for this evening, ntiicli has been handed to ns, we may promise a rich treat to all aho may attend. Delicious Cosiuctiosekv. —We have to day to announce the gratifyin» intelligence that Mr. A. Ij. Yausant, that Prince of Confectioneiß in thiß country, has just brought out a variety of delicious Spring pro pa rations, which the public will appreciate. Prominent among these, the rush for his Sweet Jordan Roasted Al monds, Allows that they are peculiarly popular. Vaa gant'a Confections are the purest and the rmst delicious that bio made. Tite Last Exhibition.— I The readers of The I’ress will bear In mind that this is the last chance which they will have of seeing Davis’ Panorama of tho Great Rebellion, as it will be exhibited in Camden on Thursday evening. After a run of six weeks in this city, it is now es popular as ever. On Monday night, the room was crowded; every available part was taken. It created great applause from the raising of the stars and stripes on Fort Sumpter to the retreat of the rebels af Port Hoynh l Eiii©ftD»iEß Meats.— Mr. C.H. Malison, dealer in Fine Groceries, Arch and Tenth streets, has now on hand an elegant supply of fine Jersey-cured liatns, superior dried beef, and smoked tongues of the largest size; also, smoked and spiced salmon, and dried fish of every description,—to which we Invite the atten tion of our readers. The Battle of the ie Iron-clads. 55 — The rebel steamer Merrimac appears to have had it all her OlYfi VftFi W Saturday morning, with the “wooden wans” in Hampton Roads, sinking one ship, taking an other prisoner, turning the gnus of the captured vessel on its former owners, and altogether acting like a mena gerie broke loose, until the arrival of another “iron clficU” the Mmiton just in time to interfere with the antics of mac-the-merr]/—when, after a couple of hours of pej>perinffi tho rebel, becoming sufficiently seasoned and (707/e, withdrew from the fire. The transaction proves . conclusively that wooden vessels are no match for “iron* &l&d ,} veesUs as men-of- var, and tlio analogy is probably sustained in reference to men of p>eace t a a well as men of-tear, that, if properly cZatf, they must always main tain u superiority over their fellows. We know* this hint will be acted upon by our citizens rushing immediately to Chas. Stokes* “one-price,” under tho “-Continental,” and encasing themselves completely in a suit of male clothing for the spring campaign. Spring.— Yesterday the sun shone out in all lie splendor and beauty, and we may now consider that (he spring season has fairly opened upon us. During yesterday afternoon the principal streets wore thronged with gay promenaders, All of whom had taken advantage of the fine weather, and again made their appearance, after having been liougod up for several days* Chestnut street, as wual, received its full share of the fashion and elite of the city, many of whom, we noticed, made their appearance for the first time robed in the neat-fittlDg ai.d latest styles of spring garments gotten up at the palatial clothing establishment of Granville Stokes, No. 609 Chestnut street, where clothing is sold at 25 per cent, cheaper than any other place in the city. Manassas Taken!—Tins is the glad news which thrilled the loyal heart yesterday. The rebels have evacuated the last stronghold which interposed between their capital and tho Potomac, and the stars and stripes now wave proudly ovtr the much-talked-of entrench ments. Pennsylvania troops occupy the works, and it is narrated that a zealous Key stoner, upon mounting the ramparts, flung to the breeze a flag which had inscribed upon it the declaration that Philadelphia was ahead of the world, and that the best garments for soldiers and civilians were those made at the Brown Stone Clothing Hall of Rockhill & Wilson, Nos. 603 and 605 Chestnut street, above Sixth.

Nearly Three Years Ago, Jfrofcssor BOLLES, with his Assistants, arrived »n this city, and established himself at 1220 WALNUT Street, and an nounced that be had made aa important discovery in the &f G&lvauDM. Mag&dtistt. EUelyA-MafineU ism, and other modifications of Electricity, for the cure ot all acute and chronic diseases, aod at first we were not much excited, as we had heard others proclaiming to have made new discoveries in applying this mighty agent for the cure of disease j but since we have turned our at tention more directly to the multitude of cures performed at 1220 WALNUT Street,by Professor Band have ex amined the philosophy of his new discovery, we are ready to give our opinion for the benefit of the diseased of body or mind. The discoverer is a man of original thought and independent cast of mind, and a keen power of ana lysis . There seems to be no confusion or guess-work in bis treatment. He proceeds on simple principles, and according to laws which, if true, bittst be infallible. Wa have watched his success carefully for a long time. What he claims as Dew, frwe, and important to suffering hu manity, is his discovery of the proper use of the different modifications of electricity to the different diseased con ditions of the human organism, in harmony with its ganglionic relations. We do not undertake to define the science of his discovery, but mostly to notice his almost incredible cures, some of which are performed in a few minutes j and so certain are his plans of diagnosis that he can warrant, with unerring certainty, and never fails (as we learn). We feet most thankful to him for having been able to lift the veil which has covered with darkness and obscurity the most powerful and subtle agent in God’s Universe. We contemplate soon to see a reform taking place in the medical practice of our country, as understand hundreds of medical men are being auali fled in this new discovery of Prof. B. We have been bo much pleased in finding u doctrine which is connected in all its parts, which in reality undertakes to explain the nature, action, and polarities of electricity in the nervous system, that we have penned this testimonial to Professor BOLLEs for the public good, . mhll-3t* Dyspepsia !
