Gino.nl Conference of the Itlciliodht Episcopal Church, South. Tho Address of the Bishops appeared in the New Orleans Times of the 8th inst. This journal says of this interesting document: “It is written in a spirit of rare Christian love, and gives a most clear and satisfactory account of the action of the Biahops in their several Conferences during the long time that has elapsed since the last general session eight years ago. This term includes a period, which it is cheer ing to know, that the church has preserved, under the Divine blessing, her integrity, and keeping in view her own high mission, has been satisfied to per form her legitimate duties.” The address thus speaks of the COLORED POPULATION IN CONNECTION WITH THE CHURCH. The interest of the colored population should en gage your serious attention. Heretofore the colored people within our bounds have deserved and received a large share of our labors. We have expended our means and strength liberally aud patiently, for man} years, for their salvation and improvement, and if in any wise our conduct has not been appreciated by some on earth, nevertheless, our witness is on high aud our reward is in heaven. It is grateful lo our own feelings to know that if tho colored people do not re main under our pastoral care their departure reflects no discredit upon our labors in their behalf, aud is necessitated by no indifference on our part to their welfare. Many of them will probably unite with the African M. E. Church, some of them with the North ern Methodist Church, while others, notwithstanding extraneous influences and unkind misrepresentations of our church, will remain with us. Let us be content to leave to Providence to vindi cate in due time our scriptural relation to the interest of our colored people. For those who remained with us the church should provide generously everything important to their religious culture. Convinced that your body takes the deepest interest in this subject and will give it your special attention, wo deem it only needful to speak oi it in this general and sug gestive form; auu especially as the Bishops 'in their Pastoral Address last August brought the subject prominently to the notice of our people. THE SEPARATE AND DISTINCT ORGANIZATION OF THE CHURCH. In respect to the separate and distinct organization - j of our church, no reasons have appeared to alter our I views, as expressed in August last. No proposal of fraternal relations has come to us from others, neither i do we regard ourselves as in anywise responsible for j hostility evinced towards us. While the attempt to • take forcible possession of our property and to disin- i tegrate our church, declare the mind that would des- ; troy us, let it be ours to show the mind that was in Liverpool, March 30.—The London Times says: “There is too much reason to fear that the peace of Europe is about to be broken by one of the least just and least necessary wars of modern times, and we heartily hope that England may hold aloof from it.” London, March 30.—The Times’ “city article” says : The English funds opened without the slightest symptom of recovery from the depressed prices of yesterday, and subsequently experienced a further Call, which, however, was temporary. The first and last price was 86’s'a86}£ ( but at one time there was a decline to 86>«f. The next account is fixed for the 0th of May. The increased depression during the after noon was consequent upon telegrams of a further downward movement on the Frankfort and Paris Bourse. The Post says: We enter on the Easter holidays under the most unfavorable circumstances. The Aus- tro-Prussian difficulties excite great attention, and the “Bears” are taking great advantage of the unsatisfac tory position of affairs to depress prices as far aa pos sible THE JAMAICA INVESTIGATION. The steamship Jamaica has arrived from Jamaica. The Royal Commissioners were bringing the Investi gation to a close aud expected toon to leave for England. The moot important evidence obtained, during the last fortnight had been respecting the ex tent of the so-called rebellion, aud how far Governor Eyre was justified in the assertion that the conspiracy was general. Governor Eyre based his opinion on a multitude of evinence both oral and documentary, which, he said, ho received from custodians and other gentlemen of property and influence iu the country; but, 6trango to say, his Excellency, when called upon,' was unable to produce the documentary evidence, and had altogether forgotten from whom the oral evidence had been obtained. Among the witnesses examined hs to the means employed for the suppression of the rebellion were General O’Connor, Colonel Nelson, Lieutenant Brandt and Provost Marshal Ramsay. An address of loyalty has been presented to his Excel lency from over five thousand persons, chiefly blacks, deprecating the massacres at Morant Bay, and deploring the means employed to suppress the rebel lion. CONCENTRATION OF RUSSIAN TROOPS. A communication to the Yzasfrom the banks of the Dnlestet says that 00 battalions of infantry, 26 squad rons of cavalry and 26 pieces of artillery are en echalon, and within three day’s march of the Austrian frontier. Moreover, .23 battalions of infantry, 20 squadrons of cavalry and 140 cannon arc concen trated near the railway station of Balta. These troops could enter Moldavia in three days by TeropoL The district officers have received instructions to be pre pared with the means of transport for the troops in case of thoir entering the Danubian Principalities. Our Washington Correspondence. Washington, April 10, 1806. Tils presage of tlw Civil Rights bill in the House of Representatives to-day has taken no one by surprise. On the contrary it was taken for granted such would he the case, whenever the bill was taken up there. There was quite an extensive jubilation in the city last night on account of the passage of the bill. The passage of this bill over the President's veto, is calcu lated to give us all pause. It is not the passage of a single bill, but it is the triumph of a policy. The President and the Congres have come into collision upon the great question of how the people of the se ceded States shall be treated. The president initiated and carried out to a certain point ‘a policy of enlarged wisdom and magnanimity. The Congress took issue with him aa toThe wisdom of this policy. After being in session for three months, and infinite debate upon tho subject, the decision of the Congress by a two- thirds majority proclaims itself against the President. As matters -now stand, the sceptre bus fallen from the President’s hands, aud he iB a pris oner in his own palace. In antiquity, under these circumstances, the Supreme Ruler thUB selected would not be able even to preserve his life. But civilization has softened the manner of the age. The inquiry is now, what use will the radicals make of their power ?

What they will do under the circumstances the future alone can fully manifest. It is said there is some dissatisfaction on the part of tlie radicals towards Gen. Giant, because he would not conform to their wishes iu certain matters con nected with the Freedmen’s bureau. Some oue asked a prominent radical here a few days since if they were going to impeach the President. The said radical said he was not prepared to answer the question. These gentlemen preserve a significant silence*. It is not likely, however, that any definite policy in this respect has been determined upon. Th tt policy will be very much shaped by circumstances.

Half h dozen war vessels are preparing for sea at Plymouth, and it is reported that tneir destination is i ments. pie does not seem to hold out great prospects of ad vantage to the President. The radical papers publish, as an event of consider able importance, the assemblage of a convention of the colored people of your State recently, every eounty in ;ho State being represented; the object of the conven tion being to consider the ways and means of beneflt- I take it for granted there is a great deal of exaggeration in the flaming account given of the convention. The condition of the free negroes in this city is de plorable. They live in a miserable hovel crowded together, so as often to exclude both light and air.— The superintendent of police reports that “in oue building visited, seventeen families were found upon the ground floor, oue restaurant, and one boarding house. The second story is a dance hall, where these people nightly congregate for amusement;” “their rooms are usually not more than six or eight feet square, with not a window for the admission of light.’ 7 A vigorous effort continues to be made by the govern ment to get them to go South. Ths House of Representatives having passed a res olution of inquiry as to why Mr. Jefferson Davis is not tried, it may be expected that his trial will not be much longer protracted. There is reason to be lieve that without much further delay his case will be submitted to a civil court. The loan bill having passed the Senate, is now only waiting the President’s decision to become a law.

In Austria the government is also taking measures in anticipation of the coming struggle. Prussia haa forwarded a circular dispatch to tha minor German States, laying stress upon the inelB- ciauoy of the appeal to the Federal Diet to settle the present conflict. The dispatch further points out the necessity jof the various States taking up a definite position, on ono side or the other, of the struggle which the armaments of Austria seem to render more and more imminent.

Vienna advices assert that Austria had determined to put an end to the provisional state of affairs in the Duchies, and if necessary will propose that the ques tion be referred to an European Congress.
