Ur. DENNIS oppoatd the bill, and reviewed the his tory cl the organization. In 1868, the plank road had its charter changed, bat it was not pnhlisned until 1800. Prom that tone to this, every Legislature has been >eallMl on to do eumetbiDg fop the concern. The p&t-tUs who consmcttd the work entered into it as a speculation, and, having loßt, now com© to nairisborg for pecuniary aid; Mr. DU] 'FIELD declared that it was strange that any one, so recently from the high exercise cf the Compel sfcpfild fffoud up iu tltf House nud object to relieving a poor man, whose means had ail been sunk in the enter* prise, and who bad been robbed.

[FOB ADDITIONAL CITT NEWS, SEE FOURTH PAGE.] Ordination of a Minister.— Last -evening the ordination of Thomas P. Colson, as a mi nister of the gospel in the Baptist church, took place at the Filth Baptißt Church, at the corner of Fifth and Buttonwood streets The church was well filled with a iarg.e and respectable audience, and the elegant per formance of the choir rendered still more impressive the solemn services of ordination. The services were opened by the Rev. Dr. Jeffries reading a portion of the Seri ?•. lure which fcpeahß of the choosing of a Bishop, and the manner in which ho should conduct himself. Ho should be pure, and fond of neither wine or any other vices common to mankind, but must be pure and holy. Neither should lie preach for filthy lucre, but shall be pure and holy in every respect. Dr. Jeffrie-, the pastor of the church, chose his text from Paul's Second Xptetle to the Corinthians: lx., v For we preach not for ourselves, but for Jems, the Lord-, and 'ourselves for your servant, f»r Jesus 1 sake.” He said there might be many conclusions drawn from hte&eUctfouforhfo discourse, hut he would show in the course of bis sermon how it bore upon the subject then before them. It can be easily seen that there is a great chasm between the salvatiou of the crow and the out preaebingof man. No class of the ministry is more popular to-day than that class of men who ignore the -crosß. when placed with social finalities of mankind. It ißvtry convenient for men Ur say that they preach for -Christ Jroue, atd not for themselves; and yet they sanc timoniously say it is not for tbemselves, but for the Cro£3 of Christ Jesus. He w»b sorry for that man who would not turn from iniquity, when conclusive evidence was brought to him that be was doing what was i ot right in the eyes of the Lord and' his fellow-man. The true trimeter works not for himself, but for the -salvation of the souls ol mankind. He works not for his •own advantage, but for all. Paul did not consider slaves as we have been considering them: men to be put up and sold to the highest bidder, npon the auction ‘block. No, Paul meant no such thing. The miui-ter of Christ la not a servant. Paul did not consider himself as such, nor does lia mention in «ItW of 1»U opletle; to ‘the Corinthians that he was a servant, bnt he might bare •considered himself more in authority than as a servant to his fellow men. This authority also belonged to his Co rinthian brethren, for their obedience to Titus. The •eamedoctrlne would hold good with thd ministers of the iCaspsL The duty of a minister of the Gospel li in obey ing his God, and he should devUe hiuimlf to the edifica tion of his people. lie ib to prove himself a servant in 'the field of labor, not for tho advancement of his own personal ease, bnt for the good of his people. He said ■that he was always sorry to hear ministers say that they <l<4 lot ere to prcacli in this church i because it was poor, nor in that church, because Its congregation was not 90 teamed -as some other, and closed his remarks ■with an earnest appeal and exhortation for the ministry of God’s words by the youngman who was about entering upon the field of usefulness. ||At the conclusion of the sermon, the ordination prayer delivered bytbe Rev; Mr Castle, after which the charge to the young minister was delivered by the Bey, Joseph KennanJ. The hand of fellowship was given by the Rev. Hyatt Smith, who said that his task was a pleasant one, and that be was pleased to be able to welcome his young bro tier to tli? field of labor. He cqmPArert the lirATCeol diers, who had gone forth to put down rebellion, tp the young preacher, and-s&H that both bad gone, and were goiDg, forth in a glorious tfsflse. After the reverend gentleman bad shook the hand of •welcome, which completed his ordination, a beautiful se lection was performed by the choir, after which thedoxo logy waa Ming 1 , the b&sodlcifon pronounced, and the church dismissed by the newly-ordained minister. Foi nk Drowned.— The body of Tho :tnas '' abaci', aged 44 years, was found in the Delaware river, opposite Queen street, yesterday morning. He •was :i blacksmith, living At Front and Queen streets, and whs employed iu the -navy yard, and has been missing tom? three months. He leaves a wife and two children. M. E. C6nfe&en<3E—Afternoon Ses- SlON.—[For report of the morning's proceedings, see fourth page.] The Conference reassembled at o'clock, and was opened by religious services. The Committee on Tracts offered a resolution, com mending the labors ol tho colporters, Ac., and recom mending an increase of funds for the distribution of tracts and like literature. Accepted. The Temperance Committee's report of their labors daring the post year was presented and adopted Tlic report of the Committee on rcriodicii a was read, and gave rise to a debate of over two hours iu length ou the question as to whether literature that was published outside of the control of the church, although conform ing to the rnles and regulations of the church, should receive thn sanction of tho Confewme a. 'What gave rise to most of this litigation wot concern ing the publication of the Methodist* a paper represented to have been started by private enterprise in New York, through which it is thought that the question of slavery ehould be promulgated, and to obialu the patronage of tho Philadelphia OobfAPAfoM with ihd ultimate /fetigu of obviating tho anti-slavery power of the Christian Ad vocate, which is the official organ of tho General Con ference. The resolution wab at length withdrawn. The report of the Conference Committee which was ap pointed to fix the day at which the Conference was first established in the United States, was then read. It slates that the first annual Conference of the Methodist Episco pal Church ever held in America was held in the city of Philadelphia in the year A. D. 1773, although thoro was no official record of the fact. Thn second Conference was held in 1774, and the third in 177 ft, which makes the Phi ladelphia Conference seat the oldest one in America and the Mother Conference, and the Conference now in ses sion is properly the seventy-fifth of the Methodist Episco pal Chnrch. The Sunday- school roport was taken up and adopted, after which the Conference went iuto an election for two trustees for centenary fund } and one trustee for educa tional fund. Tho following named gentlemen were el <ct ed as trustees for the centenary fund: Joseph Cox and 'William Armstrong. Trustee for educational fund—A. W Milby. The Missionary report was then taken up and real. It stated that more money had been raised for mission ary purposes during the past year, than had been during the preceding year. The announcement of the fact was received with approbation by the members.

The managers would return their most sincere thanks to thoso kino ladies who have so liberally supplied tho Wantfi &f thia Besides ihe clioicasd wines and brandies which have been donated, they have also been supplied with un abundance of under-clothes, so that every patient can receive a clean suit as often as is ne cessary, which adds greatly to the comfrft and health of the patients. They trust that sqch SUppjis9 will fc>s con tinued. While the Government furnishes a full aupply of ilie nmst substantial necessaries, there are a thousand ways in which ladies, moved by patriotic motives, may slow their kindness and their loyalty to their country, and may demonstrate that they feel it a privilege to con tribute some token of rest ect to those who have suffered hardships, who have sacrificed nli the comforts aud en dearments of home, to protect our peaceful city from the ravages of cruel invasion. It is only just to say of the surgeon in charges that donations made for any other motive would not be accepted. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. THE MONEY MARKET. PiiiLA’.iEi.iqnA, March 27, 1862. The stock market to-day was heavy. Government sixes of 1881 fell off X ? Stale loans declined X 5 City loans wero weaker, the fancy stocks dull, and passenger railway shares out of favor. American gold sold at the hoard at 10l&i Tlie money market i§ without altera tion. Messrs. Drexel & Co. quote: New York exchange....... par®l-10dis. Boston exchange ....... par® X dis. Baltimore exchange..... par®j£ dis. CAUEtey fuLds X&H dis. American gold prm. 7 3-10 Treasury notes par® X dis. The New 1 orb Evening I*ost of to-day says: The stock market opened very weak, under the un favorable reports about the movements of the rebel steamer JfewiMd a The of the tfa&vllU also had some influence, but at the close there is a better feeling, with a recovery of }(® ; ! j per cent, from tho lowest points touched. There is an average decline of & percent on the Railway list, with extreme dullness at the clos i. Pacific Mail tell 6fi I,V, white Panama was Upm at IQl<2>lQl)^. Alter the Board there was some uneasiness, with a disposition to sell. New York Central dropped off to 82>f ®S2j& ; Galena to 67% ; Erie to 37. The railroad bonds are steady, on the whole, though the bids of yesterday are supplied to-day. Erie thirds dose with sellers at 93. Hannibal anil St. Joseph’s bonds fell off 5 per cent. There is a sharp reaction in Governments, the regis tered selling down to 93%, the coupons to 92%, and the fives of 1874 to 87. At these prices, however, there is more inquiry. Money Is rather quicker to-day, but at 7 per ceat. on call borrowers find little difficulty in supplying their wants. Gold rcmainsdull at 101 v®101?£. Exchange is quiet atlll#®ll2. Doubts have been expressed very frequently of late whether Government stocks are taxable as personal pro perty. We quote section 2d of the loan bill of February 25,1862, which seems to be explicit upon the point: “ And all stocks, bonds, and other securities of the United States, held by individuals, corporations, or asso ciations within the United Stateß, shall be exempt Iron t&tt&tteii by 6ic tind&r SfcAte authority." It is officially announced that the interest on the fourth mortgage bonds of the Erie Railway Company, due ou the first of April, will be paid on presentation to the treasurer. At tho same time the certificates of the trus tees for the coupon of the fourth .mortgage bonds, due October Ist, 1661, will bo redeemed* with interest from May Ist* 1861.

H Mattson, dealer in fine family gro ceries Arch aud Tenth streets, has norr on hand a tine lot of Scotch Ales and London Brown Stout, of the purest quality, adapted for inval d* or table uso, to which we invite the attention of our readers. We may state that, on account of their ascertained purity, these articles have bsen hi&bh' by ssme Of AU? firat nhyaicums. A New Science. — The matter of running away has been reduced to a science by the rebels. At Newborn, as soon as they beard of the approach of the Yftiikoei, they cot & train ready, and as soon as thev were whipped, they jumped into the cars, and ran off at the rate of twenty miles an hour. That beats Floyd’s style, which bas at length arrived at as much perfection as the elegant styles of Spring Ctothing manufactured by Gran ville StoUcs, at his Mammoth Temple of Fashion, No. 609 Chestnut street, where the finest aud cheapest garments in the country can he obtained. Exit Jeff !—The arch-traitor Jeff Davis informs his loviu" subjects that he is going West, for tho purpose of taking coir-maml of tho rebel army in person. The next move will be a stampede for Mexico, and then a back-out to Europe, leavinghis dupes to settlo accounts with X'nclc* Sam. It would be true patriotism in Jeffer son io leave },U country for his country's good; but we would prefer that he should take his departure by the hempen line. If the record of the past oighteen months could be .w iped out, we would be cootcnt to allow Jefferson to live and die iu his own Mississippi, growing riefck and fut upon hog and hominy, and making MtftsMf look, At least, like a gentleman, by wearing garments from the Brown Stone Clothing Hall of Rockhiii & Wil son, Nob. 603 and 005 Chestnut street, above Sixth. Fatality of Uniforms.— lt would from numerous observations made by military svritere, that soldiers are hit during battle, according to the color of their dress, iu the following order: Red, the most fat'd; tho taut fatal, Austrian gray. The proportions arc! Rod, 12; rifle green, 7 brown, 6; Austrian bluish gray, 5. Thus we see how unwise has been the adoption of the gay and ftuiciful uniforms by some of our regi ments at tlie comniencuneiit of the war. Of course, it is only necessary to consult these statistics in reference to our dress as soldiers; but} as cmfiam, we are only influ enced by taste. Beautiful garments, of all shades of colors, and of all descriptions, for Spring wear, are now offered at Charles Stokes* 11 One Price,” under the Gou tißfut&h low prices.
