Thie "Daily Christian Advocate.",
This is the title of a handsomely-printed folio
daily—the rattle sized pag.es as the War PreSS—puh
/ished by Carlton Sr Porter, .56 North Fourth street
Under the auspices of the General Conference
of the Methodist Episcopal Church, now hold-
lip' its sossiona at Union bI. E. Church, Fourth
Street, below Arch. The Conference com
menced its sessions on Monday, of last wow: ,
and ;the first nuralier of the Advocate made
Its appearance on Tuesday—the purpose Of the
publishers being to- continue the paper unti l
the Conference clot:es, which win probably be
several weeks, and thus daguerreotype, in con
venient newspaper form, from day to day, the
full and complete proceeding,: of this important ec
clesiastical body. The particular reasons assigned
for issuing this paper, and urged upon the Metho
dists orthis etty mat throughout the loyal States for
taking it. arc: That great questions will come be
fore the General Conference which this paper Is to
represent; that it will report the speeches of the
nietnbers and the doings of the body more fully than
the weeklies can do; that it will keep Use subscribers
informed from day to day Of what is said and done,
and of what is proposed and who proposes it; that it
will enable the snbseribers to look after the dele
gates and see whether they represent them correct
ly, and that it will be useful for future reference.
The several numbers that have already appeared
'fully warrant all that is foreshadowed in the pros
peettis., as they not only contain an accurate record
of the meetings of the Conference, hut have, in addi
tion to this, some of the characteristics of a daily
Stews-paper.

.--The General Synod of the Lutheran Church
opened its sessions on Thursday of last week, at
"York, Pa. Among the work to be accomplished by
this body, the Lutheran and Missionary, of this week,
ouggeits as eminently desirable that its claim to
the name " Evamelical Lutheran , ' should be put
beyond all cavil. 211. That this General Synod
:Should represent the whole Evangelical Lutheran
Church in the United States, instead of as now only
it part. thl. That the governmental authority of
this body should be more clearly defined and ed
tablb-thed, under sufficiently careful restrictions,
but not to impair its reality. 4th. That the repre
pentations in the General Synod should be so
equalized and reduced aS more fairly and ma'
rately to represent the various portion§ of the
Church embraced in it. sth. That the General
Synod hays solo authority to set forth one and
the same Catechism for official use in the Church ;
one and the same Liturey ; one and the sane cob
leetion of 'Hymns 5 one and the same Confession of
Faith, to wit : the Augsburg Confession, unchanged
and unabridged_ Gth. That the Synod should de
clare the adoption or any substitute for the Augs
burg- Confei-sion as inconsistent and inadmissible;
and, rth. That the General Synod ought to declare
all public assaults upon the Augsburg ConfeSsion
and 'Luther's Catechism as inconsistent with the
Lutheran name and detrimental to the unity and
peace of the Church.
TEneENTEN'AnT OP TEE DEATH OF CALVIN.--
The present - month is to witness the three hundredth
anniversary of the death of a man scarcely less dis
tinguished in tile history of theology than was
Shakspeare in the history of literature—the
trious reformer of Genera, John Calvin. From
Present indications the event will call together in
carious parts of the world solemn assemblies to
commemorate the Services to the Church and
civilized society of this remarkable man. The 'New
- York Indrpcndcrd of this' week, in alluding to the
Eubjeet, says. :
"From an early age Calvin was distinguished for
his rare intellectual endowments. He combined the
Subtlety and keenness of the French mind with the
masculine energy of thought and the tarn for pro
-found reflection which more especially characterize
the Teutonic nations. He exhibited the power of
nice and delicate analysis to a wonderful degree
but it bore no comparison to his synthetic breadth of
grasp, and the plastic, creative force which giros
birth to c-onapreheilsive Systems_ His love of learn
ing from childhood possessedthe activity of an in
nate passion. His progress in study was almost in
credibly rapid. and at the same time equally' eaten-
Sive and solid. Before he was of age he had become
an authority on legal queiztiong ; knowleden of
the Bible had led him to secretly question the pre
tensions of "The Church," and his native resolute
3tess of character impelled him to devote his lite to
the reformation of abuses and the development of
truth in the MI elia Weal state. He was little more
than twenty-nve when he brought out the first cdi
tiOn Of the "Institutes," that master-piece of rea
soning and expression. which at once became the
Strongest defence of the reformed laith, and which,
for vigor of 1-eic, consistency of plan, and architee
tura l compie: cncss of detail, .has never been matched
in theological literature."

of the - United States.
Conference opened its session with .Bishop Antes in
the choir. Rev. J. P. Dintinett, of Illinois, conducted
the religious exercises.
The report of the Committee on Missions, which - was
under consideration ut the time of adjournment, was
taken up.
An amendment, that the two secretaries to be elected
be the Conference reside in New York, and the words
the WeAt II be stricken out, was agreed to.
A further amendment was made that one of the as•
sistant secretaries reside on the Pacific coast. Not agreed
to.
Titereport was finally adopted.
The Committee on itinerancy reported in facer of re
• storing the supernumerary relation. The report was
I laid on the table for the present. Four years ago this
. part of the Discipline was stricken ont on account of the
' I . Power being abused.
! The Committee on Itinerancy also reported in favor of
striking out that rule in the llieciplineiwhieh. requires
mill niters to reside in the houses selected for them by the
steward, under the penalty of losing their house rent.
This was agreed to.
- The Committee on the State of the Country have Con
sidered the following subject sulunitted to them by - the
General Conference, viz:
Where - me, It is a well-known fact that the M. E.
Church was the first to tender its obligations to the Go
vernment under the Constitution, in the days of Wash
isgton whereas 11t0 fair record of the Church has
never barn tarnished by disloyalty,. and whereas am
ministers anti people are truly and. deeply in sympathy
with the Government in its efforts to put down. the re
bellion and set the captive free: therefore

whose duty it shall be to protect' to Washington, and to
present to the - Pre*ident of the United States the assa
mutes of our Church, in a suitable addross, that see are
with him is heart and hand in the present struggle for
human rights and free institutions.

five be substituted for three as the number of the com
mittee, and that the resolutions, ;is thug amended, be
ai ßeWi l nimittee on Book Concern recommended that
the agents at New York i.e authorized to establish a de
pository in the city of Philadelphia, provided it can be
done without serious loss to the Cotteant.
The Committee on Slavery presented a report, which
was laid upon the table and made the. order of the day
for next Tuesday, at 10 o clock. - ,
The report of the Committee on Itinerancy, providing I
for the appointment by the Bishop of a minister for
three years Instead of Iwo, was taken up,
Rev. Dr. Reed said, that of the two reports made by
the majority and the minority, both were in favor of
extending the time of appointments, but disagreed as to
the manner in which it should bodone. The majority
report is simple in it, nature, and leaves the entire ad.-
ministration of the Church as it was before.
Rev. Mr. Wakely, of New York, was otmoseitto the
extension of time of ministerial labor. nis conference
had so requested him to express his views. lie did not
think the time had vet come for such radical change.
Re did not like to see that which ourfathers had guarded
for sixty years altered or changed. Some had said that
those who opposed ihls change ware old fogies: if es,
then lie wished his name placed among that list.
The subject was laid on the table, for the purpose of
hearing the address from the Wesleyan Conference of
Canada.
The add wa, filled with congratulation. It says
their circuit system is maintained. Their missions are
no less. than Btu in number, comprising 175 ministers.
The University of Victoria has educated and given a
right tinfoil se to hundreds of the most active public men
of the country. The number of students last year was
get; nineteen graduated at the last convocation in The
faculty of arts alone. Within the last few years they
have established a collegiate institution for the liberal
education of the daughters of their people. One hundred
and seventy-three students were instructed within its
walls last year.
Rev. Mr. Catron, one of the Canadian delegateg,was
then introduced. Be came Ile a representative of the
original Canadian Conference_ our number of mem
bers is 00,05, Our children's fund makes every super
intendent resTionsible ro it ior a certain sum. We ha pa
513 ministers, 141 circuits, and 172 missions. We have
a hind for improving the education of our candidates
for the ministry. We have cherished throughout a pure
love for the American Methodists. We have adopted
your' Bleelplitmond recognize vou as the only Methodist
body of this continent, We Lave arong and honest
sympathies for you in your present troubles,' in endea-
YOrillg to maintain your institutions and character. Ms
syinththy had been with them throughout, as he was
fully well acquainted with American affairs.` -He
thought the Republic would yet be preserved in all its
integrity.
Rev. Mr. Millis, the other Canadian delegate, 'was
also introduced. He said that the people always and
the gospel, and. the gospel never finds them. it had
found them a few years since in the wilderne of Qana
da. ;me this he thought was the first Conference at
which Canadian delegates bad been repreSented. The
first nubile paper that ever had any circulation in Cana
da was their own church paper. We have a noble com
mon school system, not second to your own admirable
system in the Northern and Eastern States. Amid alt
the changes that have taken place Methodism is still the
same all the world over. - We staud by the old doctrines
imbued into us-,and he had no fear that the Church
would depart from them nolwithstauding the Progress'
they were making. He believed the maxim of -Method
ism to be to seek out the poor, and preach thelklespel to
them. They had sought out all classes, and he had
no doubt Methodism would be in the future what it
had been in the _past. The anus of Methodism are wide
enough to embrace the world. Perhaps it has not done
what: some other forms of Christianity have done for
the production of men of genius. But let us remem
ber its work and progress. It is more important to
preach the word of God in the wild woods, than
to sit in the easy chair with silken slippers.
Re would say a word in regard to that great topic
which was spoken of in all our speeches and prayers.
He alluded to our struggle fur the Union. Their pray
ers were with us from day to day, and all through the
Church of Canada your case Les always upon our
thoughts in prayer. We are struggling with God for
you. Their prayer was, "This is a domestic strife let
us be neutral, but pray for the .North. " [Laughter,
. This is about the sum and substance of our neutrality.
God grant that the conduct Mal - not last long, and may
result in the liberation of the slave and master—the
opening up of the way for the Gospel and Word of God.

made a few remarks in regard to the progress of Meth

Rev. .4r. Clark, of the colored delegation; then ad

of them had been constituted a committee to recipro
cate those kind expressions made by your Confer
ence. We have but to refer to the history of the Church
to show your parental relation ti us and our filial
relation to you. We have, been industrious, economi
cal, and prudent since we have established a Conference
cf our own. The ground on which now stands the church
wherein our Conference is being held, was formerly
worth about $50,009. Our church property will now

There are about 1,2101 day schools t . teachers of few er ,
10.01 - We have about 100,000 children attending our
Sunday schools. Nearly 100 students ace studying at
our University for the instruction of colored ministers.
We have two religious publications. Our bishops and
members of our General Conference desire to tender you
mur thanks for any and all aid which you have ren
dered no at different times. They gratefully remember
your favor of sending to Africa as a missionary one of
our ministers. You are getting - where the Church of
God ought to be, in advance of the State. The State
is dragging slowly along,
but perhaps the bravery of
our soldiers will cause the State to recognize our Ch arch.
The Church of Christ must take her legitimate place.
We thank you for this, our first interview, and know
that we shall be benefited byit. He concluded by hoping
that they mightbe still more closely associated together,
until they shall all meet in Heaven, where they will
never be separated.
Rev. Dr. Revels, another of the delegates, was intro
duced. lie said that tht y had had the sympathies of this
body was a fact well known to all that had received
their counsels, and it wt,, a truth which they held in
grateful recollection. So far as they had labored and es
tablished the African M.E.Church,so far had they labor
ed to establish the old landmarks and doctrine* of Me
thodism. Ito believed they world inutify him in re
marking that a colored ministry could better adapt
itself to the wants of the colored people of this coun
try titan any other class of ministry. Being acquaint
ed with their customs they could go among them and.
better adapt themselves to their wants. A great ques
tion was about to ent.:ne beim* the body in regard to
what shall be done with the thousands of freedmen
who shall soon be thrown on our hands. On your part
tins will be a work of Christian benevolence,. and
on ourpart a work of Christiambenevolence and kindred
ties. Many of their bishops and ministers had dear
friends and relations South, whom they had not seen
for years, and it was but reasonable to hope that they
were anxious to inert again. Just so soon as our armies
advance, just so soon are our ministers in the field close
on the heels of the victorious warriors, hunting np the
colored people of the South, who have been so lon.'
shut off from us. We are encouraged and strengtlieneil
in our work to know that we are acknowledged by you
as a part and parcel of the great Methodist Church. In
concluding he thanked them for the honor conferred
upon him.
. .
Rev. Mr. Campbell, the third delegate, was intro
duced. lie felt highly honored for the favor w Melt had.
been conferred upon him. They 'regarded themselves as
a branch of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and they
believe that the African ;Si. E. Church has a mission
from God, and in His providence she has been raised. up
for this very purpose. In the strictest sense of the word
we have not one educated minister. but we have a 1111.
isrry that is being educated. But God has strengthen
ed our Church, and increased its members, and given
ns friends in the M. E. Church. We believe that we are
now realizing the prayers of our fathers.
Is it nor remarkable that more of our people have held
nil and imitated . your doctrines than any °there ?
We place the same books in the hands of our children,
and teach them the same principles, in order that we
may be Methodists. We are struggling for self-eleva
tion. [Applause.] We are striving to be men. [Ap
plause.] We are laboring to disseminate Christianity
among our people, and we swish your aid. This is actual
progress. Will you advance further?We only ask
you to acknowledge in us our common manhood, and.
we will ever thank Cod for it.
Rev. Father Boehm, for many years the travelling
companion of Bishop Asbury, took the stand and made
a few remarks in reference to the changes which had
taken place in the Church since his day in regard to the
question of the colored people.
The venerable gentleman, who is eighty- nine years
of age, upon concluding, turned to the delegates and.
shook each one cordial/0)3 - the hand. His remarks af
fected many of those present to tears.
The subject of granting assistance to the Colored
Church was referred to a committee, and the Conference
adjourned with the usual devotional exercises.

[Before Mr. Alderman Beltler.
Larceny Case.
1117 Clieli - NV2. arraigned at the Central Station 'yes
terday afternoon on the charge of the larceny of photo
graphic albums, valued at Seta, the property of. William
Flint. The accused, it seems, sold the albums to three
Parties, at rates far below their value. The priaeaer,
on being questioned, said he had not stolen any more
goods than the amount recovered. Ho had no local
home in Philadelphia, and followed the water for a
living. He was committed.
Petty Suits.
A case was heard at the Central Station yesterday af
ternoon, which reminded us of the old story of going to
law. Three ynnureolered females were arraigned on
the•charge of committing an assault and battery upon
Another spruce-looking, copper-colored damsel, whose
head was decorated with a beautiful blue bonnet, and
a profusion of flowers. During the investigation, it was
stated that the entire party lived in the same house.
Each of the three persons bad sued complainant, and
alit was taken before u magistrate down town. The
reasons, the whys, and the wherefores not having been
distinctly slated, the alderman questioned her on this
point.
'What did they sue you for?" he asked.
• 'Don't know what for, unless it was bekase one of
em 4 attacked me. and 1-. went to grab her by her bar,
audit was only a wig; it came oil in my hand; she said
I stole her ' [Laughter.)
"Well, what did the other two sue you for ?''
Dunno what for."
"What did the alderman do in the ease; What did he
sal the charge was '
" Why, he charged me 51.50 in ono ease, in oder
case, and €5l. 2:5 in the oder case, end this knit all my.
money. Then after this two on em sues tee, and l's
afraid to go hopy, hese they got two cont , tables watch- -
ing the house. • • .

tlThethvestigbon clo,ed by the trio being ordered to
.
enter bail tile sum of $6OO each to appear at court.
[Before Mr. Alderman Dougherty.]
Club and Knife 'Used.
John Postles, colored man, was arraigned yesterday
on the charge of committing an assault and battery
with a club and knife on Bernard Fitzpatrick and James
Kenny. It seems the parties are engaged in procuring
seamen for vessels,and it was thought that Bonny was
iztertermg with he business of Pestles. The latter
spoke to him about it, in the neighborhood of Front and
Lombard "streets, yesterday morning,
and threatened
to - rake his life if he interferred with his hu.ineez. It
Was not long before a tight ensued, during which Pos
tles seized a club; and, it is alleged, struck his antago
nist one or two violent blows. At this stage of the pro
ceedings Fitzpatrick interfered, whereupon Postles
seined - a }mite and made a desperate lunge at him with
it. Fitzpatrick parried the inow and caught the blade
in his hand. A pretty severe laceration resulted. The
accused was bound over in the sum of 211,200 to answer
at court. - .

A_CLERGYMAN CURED OF CON
SUMPTION BY SCHENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP.
BOSTON, Mass., Dec, 2, 1802,
Dr. J. H. SCHENCK:
SLR: I feel it my duty, for the sake of the sick and suf
fering of humanity, to relate to you the following facts:
Last May I- was attacked With hemorrhage of the
lunge, had bled profusely, and, not Milling' the Proper
remedy, still, again I bled in one month after, and be
came weaker than before. Then I fully . comprehended
the danger, and cast about me for an regis from the im
pending doom.
Naturally skeptical, and fearful of being duped,
having au inveterate abhorrence of empirics, I was
slow to trust; and with regard to your medicines. I was
obstinate even to a fault. Not until the living wit
nesses—healed, recovered, with full breathing power—
stood before me, would I be persuaded. •Not until the
ellicacious balm was purchased and brought to, my
room, and forced upon me, would I try it. Two of my
parishioners informed me of their wonderful reco
very. One had taken nineteen bottles ;of the Pnlmonic
Syrup for bleeding of the lungs, and was completely
cured, and is new doing battle in the. service of his
country . . The other was a person who was on the verge
of death for more than a year, bleeding at every little
excitement, and despairing of recovery until she found
relief in your syrup. She came before me apparently
in the very bloom of health, with brilliant, florid coun
tenance and portly bearing—the last person I should
have suspected of having ever been under the pale sheet
of New England's fell destroyer—Consumption.
She looked to you as the mighty deliverer from its
scourge, and to your Syrup as a panacea from the com
plaint. She was a member of my church, and felt au
interest in my recovery; and though sanguine, and
even enthusiastic. us she had a right to be, because she
herself had been healed, yet there stood the living,visi-
He truth before me. Could I doubt her word? Gould I
refuse a remedy so mild, so palatable, and yet so effica
cious? No: Life was too precious, yet too precarious,
to delay a moment,. I took six bottles of the Syron,
and, fecovering rapidly, I went into the country fur
three mouths, for the benefit of the air.
But, alas! the air could not benefit me without the
medicine. I went Witilnllt that, and after bleeding
again I resolved to come back. I was much fatigued on
arriving in Boston, and bled the same night. lily case
was again critical. Immediately I applied for the
Syrup and soon began' apidly to improve, and recover.
I

however, are receding before the MANDRAKE PILLS
and SEA-WEED TONIC. I have taken them but a few
days, but have found great relief. According to present
appearances, I shall be able to preach amiin very aoon,
and come out of this sickness stronger than! ever was
before.
Al 3 our callings. are similar in striving to relieve the
ills of life—you for the body, I for the spirit; you for
the sick, and lin preaching to the poor—l feel it my

am not the only one relieved in these parts, but several

One of my parishioners after spending a large sum on
physicians, and arowlng nothing better, hut_ rather

it did not agree with him; it was too sweet, and threw
him into violent retching. He then took the Tonic and

taking it until now: instead
of going to sea, as he con

NEUSALOIA
ORPTIPIOATE OP MO. S. P. ITTOII, OF MARIA:
This is to certify that nine weeks since I was at'acked
with Neuralgia in the most violent form, Severs ' l phy.
aiciane were applied to, who did all they could to reuse,
roe, but to no purpose. Every patent medicine amt
remedy that could he found were milted without Cdvi.
My face was poniticed and bandaged in order to nod re.
lief. Since the Neuralgia attacked 'me I lost wenty
seven pounds of nosh. In this state a friend of min:
recommended me to try Mrs. M. 0. Brown's 11tdaphy.
aka! Discovery, as it lied cured.a friend or his very kid
eyes„ which had baffled the skill of the most endow
physicians.
Consequently I went to Mrs.! M. 11. Brown's
the AMERICAN HOUSE, and obtained her Afetarbye :
cal Discovery, on Saturday, the nineteenth instant.
applied it at 4 o'clock lu the altcrndon. The re ult
that Neuralgia subsided. Almost immediately I felt
relief. I slept well, without any poultices as It t •tati,
and at the time of giving this certificate, the 21st
I consider myself delivered from may disease, an
commend the Metaphysical Discovery to all who Ai

MR. .TEROME A. O'CONNOM, OF 01,D CAMBRIDIr.
This is to certify that I have been troubled with a Lad
catarrh for the last live years. This winter: it b.,:m I
unusually troublesome; en much so that I was oblig,l
to rigs at night, owing to the toucan which would him
suffocated me. I obtained Mrs. M. O. Drown'.4 Meta
physical Discovery some weeksback, used it faithfully,
and the result is that my catarrh began to gi ve way at
once. I felt relieved from what had been so troublesouta
and offensive to me, and now consider myself a rn red
young man, being entirely , delivered from the torribls
disease of catarrh. lily sister has also been clisea.ed
her head and eyes from childhood; so much so that till
family thought she could not live. lit the use of the
Discovery she has received equal benefit with in vself.
We cordially recommend Mb Metaphysical Db.c.very,
8. d. Chase, of Ortmbridgeport, do tittNtlfy that I
have been troubled with a bad catarrh (lir upwards ,::
thirty years. 1 obtained Mrs. M. ft. Drowu's nits

found relief that I had never totted before. I have !het
the medicine faithfully, and believe it went to die ro
of any disease; and I feel as if catarrh wise mills:tt i.
from my system, the foul effects of the sad distate• !lav
