The Sunday-school anniversary at Mul- l>orry Street Church Sunday afternoon was ono of the most interesting meetings that transpired during Conference.

Both addresses were very entertaining, nnd were addressed mainly to tho largo congregation of chil dren who were present, and tho yonng folks heartily enjoyed them, and so did the old folks, "for tho matter of that.” Bishop Paine was present and spoke a- fow words to the children, giving them his blessing. Tho children deserve special praise for the very elegant singing they did daring tho exorcises. Nothing could havo been sweeter or moro musical. Tile singing was led by Professor A. N. Whitney, nnd Profoasor A. L. Wood presided at the organ. Jfrmurlnl Mrsslim of Confcrriirc. 'l'lio Conference a aomUed In memorial Bossion in Mulberry Street Church, at 71 o’clock Sunday evening.

A Large congregation a sembled at the First Street Methodist Church Sunday morning to hear the sermon by Bishop Keener. There were many ministers in tho congregation, most of whom had never before had an opportunity to hear tho Bishop. Tho text was Genesis xxit: VIII. "And Abraham scud, ‘My son, God will provide Himself a lamb for a burnt offering.' ” There can bo no analysis or de'erip- tion of this sermon which can convoy a just idea of its character. It was a pro found logical oxegisis of the plan of sal vation through tho death of Jesus Christ, and tho preacher presented tho wonder ful lovo of God, through which tho sacri fice was made, in tho glowing language of truth and eloquence. Tho Bishop is not a fine orator; but ho is a profound thinker, and his magnifi cent reasoning powers amount to tho highest gifts of eloquence, no uses many fine figures of speech, and is very happy in the selections of his illustra tions and parallels, and keeps so closely in view the point under discussion that he does not lose sight of it for a moment. IBs congregation was greatly edified by tho sermon. After the sermon tho ceremony of or dination of Eldersjwas performed. Some half a dozen candidates presented them selves and were ordained according to the forms of the church. The Bishop was assisted in this serve v by some of the Presiding Elders and two of the oldest ministers in the Conferuee. Ho! fob Chbistmas.—Ribs, backbones, roasts and steaks, of the finest beef and pork ; small pig, kid, all ]>ork sausages, on hand and coming.
