THE CITY.
[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 Dox
ology was then sung, and the meeting adjourned.

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.

Fine Scotch Ales and London Brown
Stoct.—Mr C. 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.
