North Georgia Annual Conference, M. E.
Church, South.
The twelfth session of this body of minis
ters and laymen convenes in Marietta, on
Wednesday next, November 27Lh, Bishop 11.
N. McTyeire, presiding. This Conference is
one of the most influential and important re
ligious bodies of Georgia, and occupies as a
church, all that part of our State north of a
line running across from the southern boun
dary of Richmond county, to the southern
part of Troup county. At the end of the last
Conference year (Dec. Ist, 1877), there were
56,599 members, 185 itinerant ministers, and
420 local preachers ; 585 Sunday Schools, and
30,487 pupils; 635 churches, valued at $525,
820; and there was raise 1 last year for the
support of the ministry, over $83,000. Du
ring the year 1878, three itinerant ministers
have died—Revs. F. A. Kimball, Win. II
Trammell and James M. Dickey.
| The Annual Conference o f ’ t!.e Methodist
church includes all the travelling pr achers,
j and four lay delegates from each Presiding
! Elder’s District, one of whom is a local preach
er. There are ten Districts, making 40 lay
men, besides the travelling ministry.
The principal business attended to is the
oversight of the educational institutions, re
ceiving preachers on trial, the examination
of the character of the preachers, and the ap
pointing of the ministers to their several
works for another year. Each appointment
is made for one year, though a preacher may
be appointed for four successive years, which
is the limit of the law. r l’he number who re
main at one place four years is verj 7 small
compared to the whole numbers. About half
remain two years, fewer still three years, and
still less for the full law tenure. Every preach,
er, except the disabled and worn out, must
bylaw receive an appointment, and the min
isterial ability and moral character of each
one is closely examined in open Confer
ence.
The preachers do not “draw’’ for their ap
pointments, as some suppose, nor do they se
lect them ; but are sent to their several works
by 7 the appointment of the Bishop, who is as
sisted in this difficult and responsible work
by the Presiding Elders, his advisers. This
work of the Bishop is done in private, and
the appointments are not revealed until the
close of the session ; the reading of which is
attended with all-absorbing interest, as the
preachers know not where their field of labor
shall be until so informed.
To all the Methodist ministers and congre
gations the sessions of the Annual Confer
ence are attended with more interest than the
convening of any other body in their church.
The preachers very naturally feel an anxiety
to know where their field of labor shall be the
coming year, and the congregations desirous
of learning who shall be their pastor. While
there are some disadvantages connected with
this mode of supplying churches with pastors,
the Methodist church claims that it has its
advantages, a prominent one of which is, that
every church has a pastor, and every pastor
a church.
If there is nothing unusual to detain the
Conference, it will adjourn about Monday
evening, when the appointments will be read
out by the Bishop.— ****

In order to guard against results utterly sub
versive of health, it is absolutely essential that
the grand thoroughfare or avenue of the system,
the bowels, should be re-opened as speedily as
possible when they bee nno obstructed. If they
are not, the bile is misdirected into the blood';
the liver becomes torpid ; viscid bilious matter
gets into the stomach, and produces indigestion ;
headaches ensue, and other symptoms are pro
duced, which a prolongation of the exciting cause
only tends to aggravate. The aperient properties
of Hostotter’s Stomach Bitters constitute a most
useful agent in overcoming constriction of the
bowels, and promoting a regular habit of body.
It is infinitely superior to the drastic cathartics
frequently us.-d for the purpose, since it does not,
like them, act violently, but produces a natural,
painless effect, which does not impair the tone of
the evacuatory organs, which it invigorates in
stead of weakening. The stomach and liver, also,
indeed the entire system, is strengthened and
regulated by it.
To the Voters of Jackson Cos.
r PIIE undersigned, friends and neighbors of J.
X W. N. Lanier, respectfully ask the voters of
the county to support him for the office of Receiver
of Tax Returns of Jackson county, at the election

fortune to lose one of his legs.

THE SUN FOR 1879.
r IMIFi SUN will be printed every day during the
jl year to come. Its purpose and method will
be the same as in the past: To present all the
news in a readable shape, and to tell the truth
though the heavens fall.
Tile Sun has been, is, and will continue to he
independent of everybody and everything save the
frutli and its own convictions of duty. That is
the only policy which an honest newspaper need
have. That is the policy which has won for this
newspaper the confidence and friendship of a wider
• >nstituency than was ever enjoyed by any other
Amor can Journal.
The Sun is the newspaper for the people. Tt
is not for the rich man against the poor man, or
for the poor man against the rich man, but it seeks
to do equal justice to all interests in the commu
nity'. It is not the organ of any person, class, sect
or party. There need be no mystery about its
loves and hates. It is for the honest man against
the rogues every time. It is for the honest Demo
crat as against the dishonest Republican, and for
the honest Republican as against the dishonest
Democrat. It does not take its cue from the ut
terances of any politician or political organization.
It gives its support unreservedly when men or
measures arc in agreement with the Constitution
and with the principles upon which this Republic
was founded tor the people. Whenever the Con
stitution and constitutional principles are violated
—as in the outrageous conspiracy of IS7G, by
which a man not elected was placed in the Presi
dent’s office, where he stills remains —it speaks
out for the right. That is The Sun’s- idea of in
dependence. In this respect there will be no
change in its programme for 1879.'
The Sun has fairly earned the hearty hatred of
rascals, frauds, and humbugs of all sorts and sizes.
It hopes to deserve that hatred not less in theycar
1879 than in 1878,1877. or any year gone by. The
Sun will continue to shine on the wicked with un
mitigated brightness.
While the lessons of the past should be con
stantly kept before the people, The Sun does not
propose to make itself in 1579 a magazine of an
cient history. It is printed for the men and wo
men of to-day, whose concern is chiefly with the
affairs of to-day. It has both the disposition and
the ability to afford its readers the promptest,
fullest, and most accurate intelligence of whatever
in the wide world is worth attention.' To this end
the resources belonging to well-established pros
perity will be liberally employed.
The present disjointed condition of parties in
this country, and the uncertainty of the future,
lend an extraordinary significance to the events of
the coming year. The discussions of the press,
the debates and acts of Congress, and the move
ments of the leaders in every section of the Re
public will have a direct bearing on the Presiden
tial election of 1880—an event which must be re
garded with the most anxious interest by every
patriotic American, whatever his political ideas or
allegiance. To these elements of interest may he
added the probability that the Democrats will
control both houses of Congress, the increasing i
feebleness of the fraudulent Administration, and
the spread and strengthening everywhere of a
healthy abhorence of fraud in any form. To pre
sent with accuracy and clearness Jdie exact situa
tion in each of its varying phases, and to expound, !
according to its well-known methods, the princi- j
pies that should guide us through the labyrinth. \
will be an important part of The Sun's work for !
1879.
We have the means of making The Sun. as a
political, a literary Jfnd n general newspaper, more
entertaining and more useful than ever before ;
and we mean to apply them freely.
Our rates of subscription remain unchanged.
For the Daily Sun, a four onge sheet of twenty
eight columns, the price by mail, postpaid, is 55
cents a month, or $9.50 a year; or, including the
Sunday paper, an eight page sheet of fifty-six col
umns, the price is 05 cents a month, or $7.70 a
year, postage paid.
The Sunday edition of The Sun is also furnish
ed separately at $1.20 a year, postage paid.
The price of the Weekly Sun, eight pages,
fifty-six columns, is $1 a year, postage paid. For
clubs often sending $lO we will send an extra
copy free. Address I. W. ENGLAND.
