i e The committee had carefully considered the
dme'ent Questions involved* and although there was
BQt unanimity, yet the -majority had concurred in the
import as presented. - „„ ,
It waa fair to say, however, that some of the lay
members of the committee were absent, and their vie we
'were not had. He had good reason to believe that the
lay members from the southern part a* tue Conference
did not cononr in this report. He also wished to remark
that there waa a*diyeralty of opinion in the committee
-as to the expediency of aoy •hangs at all. The e jm
■uitteo felt, however, that they had a duty to perform,
by direction of the Gecersl Conference, and had eh
deavortd to perform that duty to the heat or their abili
ty.. Hia belief was that the intsießtsor the Church
would be promoted by the adoption of the resolution.'
Hey. Hr Thompson moved .that the Question he taken

of Philadelphia homes could not he obtained for all
those who had come to attend the Conference.
Rev. T. A. Fernley, o"ne of the Committee on Homes,
here interrupted the speaker, and stated that the speak
er wae misinformedthat there were sufficient homes
lor all, and the Committee had accommodations for still
more..
Hey. Mr. Quigley resumed. He stated that notwith
standing this, he knew of several who were stopping
at hotels, and par ing large prices, which they were
scarcely able t o meet. He alluded particularly to those
who had come to .Philadelphia lor the purpose of being
ordained—mo*tiy poor young men. ..
Bey. Hr. Fernfey wanted to know if there poor yeuag

Ten o’clock haying arrived, another order of the
day—the call of the Stewards to receive moneys for
the worn-ont ministers—was called for, and the sub
ject of dividing the Conference was postponed for the
present. The collection of this tt oney occupied con
siderable time, The reports from the different churches
were very encouraging The majority of them col
lected more than their apportionment.
After which the subject of dividing the Conference
was again taken up. <
Hey. Or. Quigley, who gave way for the order of
..the day, resumed his remars a. His first argument
was, that the Conference was too large to be comfort
ably accommodated at any place. His second reason
for the division was, that for years they had; vir
tually been a divided Conference. If this is the state
of things, should we not be formally divided? It
would be for the interest of both parts of the Con-'
foresee.
Rev P Coombs laid before the Conference a commu
nication from the laymen of Hover Circuit, protesting
against the proposed division
Hey. Hr. Cooke stated that the laity had not a voice in
making the report, although they were invited to take
part in the discussion.
Hey, Hr. Townsend was opposed to division at this
time. He thought that the Scriptures gave us warning.
-on this point. We are there toidio b* of the same heart
and the same mind, and there shall pd nodi visions
among u«. The time for this proposed division has not
yet arrived. The state of the country requires us to be
careful how we act in the matter. We need ail the
power we have to bind and keep us together, for the
Sat at least, w hen we settle down upon some firm
, when the unity of the country is established,
then we can divide wiih more harmony.
Rev. A, Atwood said the Conference had been trying
to effect Luis object for nearly ten yearn, but judging
from the tone of the speeches he thought they were
going backwards. He was lu favor'of division. The
plea has been that we can’t leave the Philadelphia
Conference. He wm opposed to dividing by the mtod e
of Philadelphia. Th's was not a p roper line for divi
sion. Webave got to make this division some time or
other, and why sot how ?
It divided into a Philadelphia and Wilmington Con
ference, as proposed, it will prove highly beneficialjfor
both sections, and Methuditm will assume a phase in
•one or two years it nevtr has assumed before The
Conference 1* enormously large In territory, and we
should have five w*n we have now got one, and
the only way to secure lhis is by a division of the Con
ference. We have not fairly covered the ground as we
-should have done, and as they have done in.the New
Jersey, and Hewark CoaJerences, and we naver will
until y ou give us a smaller territory.
£ev. William Gray sitd hls-people did not desire a di
vision on the ground that at tae present time it was In
expedient to undo any of the ties that hind our people
together. He thought this was the conviction ot their
people in Perneylvdeia We have, indeed, a great
deal of territory unoccupied; but he could not see that
division -would give them more means and more effi
cient men than they now have.
Bcv. T. ■B. Foulson stated that In bah&lf of the people
of the Peninsula he would ask in Hod's name not to
divide them now. [Cries of “Amen. * 3 We want your
support and sympathy We know our section is the
farcen-£pdt of Methodism, but she has nearly been
lighted by the men who have been sent there, on ac
count of their supposed sympathy with secession.
Bar. 8. M, Cooper was also a Peninsula man He
noticed a trembling among the brethren whenever di
vision is mentioned. Be had as yet heard no solid ar-
« ament why the Conference should not be divided.
hey gave no reason that would justify a postponement
of the question. He claimed t> be acquainted with the
sentiments of the Peninsula people, and he believed a
large majority of them wi> hea the Conference to divide.
He knew that Wlimingtoa, Smyrna, and Hover did
not desire it, but their reasons for opposition were
locaL Will there ever be a time when there can ever
be a more h&xmoniouß period, for a division than now ?
is It fail that we should be dragged year after year to
Philadelphia, Harrisburg, and Lancaster, while our
own ptople cannot have the privilege of an Annual
■Conference?
We want a division, in order that a Conference may
be held in one of the Penl teula towns, where we can
receive all the membfrs. Bow the number is too large
for our small accommodations. Let us depart in peace;
.that is all we want
Rev. .J. A. Massey said that in 1630, when the Hew
Jersey Conference w as divided, there was & tremendous
opposition. The people cried that we were going to
ruin Hew Jersey. Divide when we will, this difficulty
will always exist, and at present there Is as little as
there svsr can be.
Bev J*. Ooombe had always been a warm advocate of
division by State line, but at the present time he was
opposed to division. In the first place every layman,
whom we ihadjthe oppoi tunny of heaving was opposed
to disunion.' There is not sufficient agreement between
the leadlngmen of the Pesimuia to warrant this change.
We can lose nothing by continuing together for at least
another year.
Bev. J Band desired to offer as a substitute that,
while there were reasons why the Conference should
be divided, there were more weighty reasons why it
should not be done
The substitute was withdrawn.
Rdv, T, T. Tasker said that while he believed thatf the
Conference should divide as soon as possible, yet he
could not believe that this was the time to do so. He
agreed that a Bmali farm could be more thoroughly
worked than a Jatge one, but the prerent was altoge*
iher a question of time. '
_Bev. Thomas Hull thought that the decision of the
Conference at the present session would be undesirable,
and hoped it would be postponed for another year.
Other diEcusskn followed, when the previous ones
ilon was called, and the resolution to divide the PnUa<
delphia Conference was voted down by a large vote.
The Conference waa then adjourned.

EXTENSION OF TIME,
A despatch from Harrisburg- last evening an
sonnces that the time for recruiting is extended by
tie War Department to tbe last day of this month.
The draft Is, however, to continue during all this
time, bnt those drafted may be released by substi
tutes. To* day Is the 17th, so that exactly two weeks
.are left In which to All our quota. We are not near
so badly off as Mew York, which Is required to fur
nish 10,000 men, on a basis whloh is stated by the
Provost Marshal General to be 140,000, but
-whloh the journals of that city claim to be
only 00,000. We have only to renew our efforts
to every ward, and every drafted man or
our city can remain at home if he has no especial
desire to go to the front. The work before us la not
great, hut there coes not appear to be a proper spirit
to some of the wards, aB their numbers rarely, ap
pear to the list of “ bounty warrants drawn from
toe olty treasurer.” A little liberality and a little
-energy In place of olose-fistedness and apathy would
do much to save their credit. Eaoh man owes It to
himself and to his neighbors, as a duty, to further
every effort to obtain volunteers, and committees
should not be Idle. To be drafted is a great hard
ship ; a volunteer Is Immeasurably better than a
oomcript. With these facts constantly borne In
mind by everybody, Philadelphia will have none
hut brave, willing volunteers to represent her to
toefield,
RECRUITING.
The business again fell off yesterday, whiah fact
may be attributed to several causes. Yesterday
morning warrants for the paymentof theclty bounty

ST. PATRICK'S DAY.
Tc-day la the anniversary of the patron salat Of
Inland. St. Patrick was Born at Tours, In Gtaul,
about the year 375. He was the nephew of the greatr
sc. Martin, Bishop of Tours, and the son of Dal
phurnluß sna Uonchessa. At the ago of sixteen he
was taken captive ln Bretaghe and was brought to
Ireland, where he was sold to JVlUchlo Huanan. a
potty’prlnce of Dalardla, in Antrim! ’ He fed Mll
ohlo’s hogs, In which office the saint tells us he was
frequently in prayer. The love and lear of (3-od In
flamed his heart, his faith was enlarged, his spirit
augmented. He said a hundred prayers by day and
ss many by night. He rose early and remained up
late, studying the Irish language, manners, and
dispositions’, and prepared himgelflbrhis subsequent
labors. „ !
In SB6 be was released'from his servitude, and re-.
turned to his relatives, with whom he remained two
years. It wss during this timb ho had that vision In
which ho saw a man named Victorious coming to
him from Ireland.with a number of letters, one of
which contained the words, Vox Hibemi gtndrum,
“the voice of the Irish,” and whilst reading It he
heard a voice saying, “We entreat thee, Patrick,
to come amongst nsp’ which formed his resolution
of being Ireland’s apostle.
Patrick for thlrty-flve-years studied under his
unole, St. Martin, by whom he was made deacon.
About 403 he went to Home, where he studied the
Scriptures for six years. In 439 he aooompanled
St, German to expel Pelagianlsm from Britain;
and in 432 was appointed by Pope Oelestine to
preach to the Irish. Ho proceeded to DBlardla,
where his old master, Mileho, lived. Ha next
went southward, westward, and northward, nntll
he arrived at Tara. Here he oonverted Oonuall,
prince, grandfather to St. Oolumbklll. In 434 he
travelled to Connaught, where he converted the
daughters of King Leoh&lr. How, in Imitation of
Christ, Moses, and Ellas, he fasted forty days, and,
according to Jocellne, gathered the tribes of rep
tiles and serpents, ana drove them into the ocean.
Patrick again proceeded northward, toward the
west, to Tyr-Amalaald, (now a deanery In Tuam,)
and here converted many thousands, amidst striking
miracles. Colgan says he founded here about forty
seven churches. He appointed bishops, ordained
priests, and founded nunneries on his course to
Louth. In 445 he Built a oathedral, enlarged and
beautified Armagh, and fixed his arohleplsoopal see
Halt. ' .
m 448 ho held a synod, and enacted many valua-'
ble canons ln~Armagh. He now passed through
Leinster to Dublin, baptized the King and people,
and by Us “Stan of Jesus” a fountain issued,
near which he built a oathedral. According to the
Black Book, quoted by Usher,.St. Patrick cele
brated mass in one of the subterraneous vaults
over wUoh Christ Church was subsequently built
In 1038. In 454 he founded the ohuroh of Ardagh,
and consecrated st. Mael Its bishop. For six years
he made Us circuits around Ulster, Leinster, and
other parts of Ireland, In 461 he made a journey
to the Pope, to whom he gave an authentic aooount
of the fruits of his mission- The Pope received
Um with joy, confirmed him In Us apostolate of
Ireland, ana armed Um with legative powers.
On Us return he passed through Britain, where
he destroyed Paganism, exoommunloated the
wicked prince, Corotiok, and established numerous
monasteries and churches. He now for thirty years
reviewed Us labors, animated his floolC built
churches, ordained priests, joonseorated bishops,
founded monasteries and nunneries, held oounefls,
wrote Us eonfesßlons, rules, and canons, removed
abuses, and, after duo retirement and contempla
tion, died. In the Abbey of Paul, on the 17th of
March, 493, in the one hundred and twentieth year
of Us age, and was burled at Sown, which gave
rise to that verse: ■ ?
•‘ln Down, three saints one grave do fill:
Patrick, Bridget, and Columbkill. ”

procession.
PRICES DECLINING.
There was a sale of 850 eases of foreign and do
mestlo goods, at the auction store of Myers & Go.,

a lady who has contributed to various patriotic
purposes $30,000 since the rebellion raised Its
bloody hand agaJnßtthe flag of the Union, and who
recently contributed a handsome sum to the Tem
porary Home Association, of this city, will deliver
a lecture at the Academy of Mnsio for the benefit of
the Home. Miss Hardlnge la an eloquent speaker,
and, as the objeot Is for the benefit or an exeellent
and -worthy Institution, the Academy ought to be
crowded to Its capacity.
UNION- PASSENGER RAILWAY DEPOT.
This great company are about to eredt a spaoloss
depot and stable at the corner or Norris and Thomp.
son Streets. The depot will be 50 by 320 feet, and the
stable 76 feet by 311. The structures will be erected
of the best material, and have all the eonvenlenoes
necessary in sneh institutions. It Is probable that,
as a summer road, this company will distance all
competition in local railroad business.
The first of the season, or the last of the season of
1864, have made their appearance In the Delaware
river. The fishermen are getting their nets In order,

Referred to Committee on Highways.
The resolution from Common Council approving the

concurred in.
The ordinance from Common Gonncll authorizing the
Sanitary Commission to erect a one-story frame build
lug on the lot, Thirteenth street, between Fltzwater
am Carpenter streets, for the temporary abetter of sol
diers, was taken np and pos ported In consequence of a
desire on the part of certain members to ascertain the
character of the building and the use to which it will
PS PUt.
Tiie resolution from Common Council authorizing the
united States Telegraph Company to extend their tele*
staph wires, was takes up. Incidentally, during a
brief discussion on the bill*
Hr. Hopkins <O.) stated that he was opposed to
granting privileges to companies for local telegraphing,
as he believed the time would come when' the city
would derive a revenue by engaging, in that business*
using the wires of the police telegraph.
. After Hr. Hopkins was informed that this line was
mot for local purposes he withdrew all opposition and
the bill passed,
Tbe ordinance aufchoiizlng a loan not exceeding
$2,500.0C0 was passed final ly.
A. communication was received from the City Bounty
land Commission recommending Councils to amend
the ordinance providing for citizens who furnish sub
stitutes. It is suggested that drafted citizens be allowed
$*CO for substitutes, Referred to Committee on Defence
and Protection
The ordinance fr« m Common Council-to change the
name of Elfteth’s alley waeconcurredin.
The ordinance which passed Common Council re*
questing the Legislature to pass au-act limiting the debt
of the city to $45,(00 000 was taken up
v- Dr. Eaheelt (O.) ridiculed the idea of oue legiela*
live body applying to another to act as guardians. Why
should not City Gouneiisbe as competent to decide what
shall be the limit of the debt as the State Legislature ? If
we are a body of lnnaUce.and not fit to govern ourselves,
then we should apply for a committee de lunatico in*
guirendo, and secure the appointment of the members
of the Legislature as the committee. He did not wish
to be governed by the members of the Btate Legisla
ture, as he had not a too high opinion of that body. If
such an tet should be passed* .the time would come
when all public improvements must stop for want of
funds. Our, streets- would become impassable* and
sanitary measures would be impossible., The ordinance
was a direct attack upon the members of Councils, and
it was uhworthy of a member to offer such a measure
which stigmatized himself asunfitto be a city legislator.
Hr* Kino (O.) insisted that Dr. Kamariy’s argument
against the bill was the best that ci aid be urged in its
favor. It was time the city expenditures were checked
somewhere. If we expend all the funds now at our
control, then. Councils will be compelled to do what is
proper—provide by taxation the amount necessary to
carry on the municipal government. He had the asser
tion of the City Solicitor that nothing bat soma such
measure §s this will save the city Jrom bankruptcy.
Certainly ne would tie the hands of Councils if those
bodies were about to destroy the credit of the city by
reckless expenditures.
Hr. Freeman (Union} considered this bill ae an ad
mission to the Legislature that Councils are not able
to decide whether the city needs mors git works, wa
ter workr, or more paved streets. We had better go
one step further, and ask the Legislature to abolish the
corporation of the c.ty. How can we carry on the go
vernment of the city with such an act of Assembly in
the way ? Hr. Sing himself had voted fox bounty bills*
and it was possible that more would bs required. Can
we tell where to fix the limit? We are not going to
ruin* as Hr. King urges. Somehow we do go through
each year. Wears told that we cannot progress* and
yet we do succeed. It le these continual assertions by
gentlemen in the Chamber that we are going to ruin,
that affect the credit of the city. These gentlemen
constantly re Sect upon the members 1 ability to legis
late; and-if the Mil is passed it will bathe last and
crowhing admission that Councils are unfit to govern
The ordinance was not agreed to—yeas 2* nays 18.
