Wii-uam Hasps.—We have received a copy of tbis little work too late for examination, but would place the same on tbe table of the clerk of Conference, with the statement that on Friday they can be furnished from the store of S. H Jones at $1.25 per dozen. Scute •Oeocoia CoxKEr.ExcE.—This numerous and highly intelligent body of ecclesiastics con vened ia this city on Wednesday morning, at 9’ A. M Bishop Kavanaugh presides, and conducted the introductory devotional exercises. He is a genial, sensible son of tbe Emerald Isle, and in tbe opening sermon at the Bap:id Church, on tbe night previous, dealt many sledge hammer blows to the intidei and atheist, while bis discourse was mixed with certain quaint allusions and il lustrations, which gave a charm to the whole, and betrayed the Celtic origin of the speaker. Tbe attendance of members isunssnaAly full* and includes several venerable and distinguished divines, aud eminent lay delegates. We notice among the former that sage of the pulpit, Rev_ Lovick Pierce, D. D., and in the ranks of tbe latter, Gen, Colquitt, Judge James Jackson, Hon. J. J. Jones, and other men of mark. The editorial corps, too, is ably represented by Rev. W. 8. Russell, of the Bainbridge Argus> ■itecsidmg Elder McGeehee, of tbe Americus Mr. Myers of the Christian Advocate’ and Prof. A. B. Stark, of the Home Monthly' To all and singly of these gentlemen, en pastanl we cordially extend the privileges and freedom of the Appeal office, and will do all ia our pow er to promote their comfort and happiness during their sojourn among us. The business wf the first day’s session of Con ference has been confined chiefly to organization, and tbe appointment of the usual Committees. The pertonel of the Body is imposing, embrac ing representatives oi'every age. from the beard i youth to the weather beaten veteran, who for fiity .years has braved the hardship* and pri vations of the circuit. No class ot mm are more devoted, useful, and self-sacrificing, than the itinerant clergy of the Methodist church. Pioneers of the faith, they penetrate the wil derness ami mountain fastnesses, and proclaim ‘to the wild iudiati, the prospecting gold hunter, the tbe backwoods settler, and in short to all human ity, tbe precious messages of the gosy 1 of peace. All honor to these patient and humble lol* lowers of the Living God. Divine set vices will be held at the Baptist church from day to day, iu the afternoon and at uight. The secs’etis of tbe Conferencealso are open to all, and will doubtless be deeply interesting aud Instructive. Plantation For Sale.

Religion Among the Blacks.— ln a stibscrip tion list which was passing around among the whites, to raise funds to assist in the completion of the colored. Baptist church, we were pleased to note the general interest manifested in the uu der'akiug. • The spread of the gospel and a pnre religion *s the only hope of the manumitted African in America. Every friend of humanity should unite there fore in tiiis great work, and wo trust «•* long when interested and sinister yankee into « ence c’n es colored churches will employ Southern white clergymen in whom they may confide, whil - Mu work t f (bleating and qu, Kfying tin ir own pious minister! il can lidat e is in progress. If tibe “oiiud lead tie b iud,” both will fall into the ditch. So with ignorant mid illiterate preachers and teachers, there is danger that this large portion of onr population will relapse into error aud superstitious fanaticism. Indeed there is already painful evidence of this in many instances. We submit Ibaf the proper method of arrest ing the evil, is by exhibiting a becoming inter est in the spiritual welfare of the Blacks. Let reserved seats or galleries be provided for them in all our churches, and every minis ter of Christ endeavor upon ail suitable oc»a-. sions to proclaim front ih-r own pulpits*the bles ed missages of peace and salvation. We rejoice that our several religions denomi nations are providing boards, and devising means for the proper instruction of those who are de sitoas of preaching the gospel, among the negro laity. Let it be remembered that in heaven there is no distinction of persons, nor can there be a black and a while church on earth. All have one Lord and Master, and all one faith and salvation. One Hundred Chickens for Fifty Cents.— J3y a calculation it has been found that oue box of Central City Condition Powders, will save one hundred chickens from dying with cholera if given in time. To pr-vent this should have your fowl-house well cleaned twice a week and sprinkled with slacked lime, aud feed the dough. Give one powder a day to every 25 small chick ens and double the quantity to grown ones.— Turkeys require twice the quantity. To keep mites from yo tr fowls, make the nests of syca more leaves, anl the roosting poles of the same tree. - For ;a'e by T. S. Powe’l. COMMUNICATE!).] Mr. ElUor. —iu your lost feme of the Appeal, appears a communication signed “ A Pastor,’’ for which 1 crave the use of your columns to re ply. There is a great deal in it that I have a right to reply to, but as .yew have been so kind In publishing what litfle I have had to say, I will pass by all that is mifi in tbe article referred to_ about - " Sinner’* ” motive in penning the article published sometime since, and come to the main issue between "Pastor” and mys* If. Tin question narrows itself down to this point: He believes some men will suffer endlessly in the future world for sins committed here, and thinks if he can show that one man is tormented in the fu ture world, Universalism falls to the which I admit. He then quotes the whole ac count of the rich man and Lazarus, and seems to rest satisfied with tbis proof; then goes on to say that these are the words of Christ, and if “ Sinner ” will not ’believe them he will not be-j lieve Moses and-the prophets. “ Sinner ” does believe <£hem and everything else our Saviour saysbut he does not believe these words prove endless punishment in the futnre world. I be lieve all that the Bible says about hell. The following are some of the reasons wbyi cannot believe tbis account teaches endless mis ery in the immortal world : The hell here spo ken of is in this world and David and Jonab were delivered from it. Tbe rich man was told in reply to the request he made to Abraham to warn his brethren that thdy had Moses and the prophdts. Now, in Moses’ writings the eis noth, ing said of rewards and punishments beyond the present existence ; therefore they could not bav« been warned of the danger of an endless hell in the immortal world. And he seems to posse-? the same bodily organs he bad iu life—therefore he could not have attained to a resurrected state. For oar Saviour says a spirit hath not flesh and bones. He also says iq the resurrection state they are as tbe angels of God in heaven. Yon take this account in a literal sense and look upon tbe rich man as being in a literal heft in the fu ture world, the* you are bound to take Abra ham’s bosom as a place ot future happiness in the immortal world in a litoral sense also.— Now unles you can prove that the rich matt bad attained to a ream reeled state of immortali ty, your evidence sustains my doctrine. Iu conclusion I will say, if you will prove to my mind from the bible, that there are two classes or conditions of mankind after the re.su r" ,-ection to a state of immortality, 1 will acknowl edge Universalism an error, but until tbis is done, my faitb in the ultimate boliuef.s, and consequent happiness of all Adam’s race remains unshaken. •* A SIXXEK.” [communicated.] Mr. Editor.—l see in your lasi Appeal an article signed “A P«stor,” in answer to “A Sin ner.” Now as Pastor has fully enlisted him. self in the defence of truth against error, and Sinner oeing neither a public speaker n or wri '(*r, I propose to substitute one in his ste*d that :s belter qualified, and more his equal, iu such matters, and one that is endorsed by the Uuiversalist denomination. Besides it would be a much greater honor to defeat such a man as I projxise than it would “ A Sinner.” He will meet you, either in an oral debate or written discussion. \V. Coleman. We have- submitted Mr. Colemans note to “Pastor,” and he expresses his entire readiness to meet sinner or any of bis advocates in a fair discussion of the vital questions involved in the doc trine of Universalism. Having already however in a pointed notice last week, declined to make the Appeal the medium of any protracted religions controversy, we are compelled still to adhere to that resolution. Such productions interest very few, and are distasteful to a majority of our readers, who prefer the current news of the day, and matter of a more amusing and instructive character. We have already published side by side the communications of both par ties, with a view to closing the contro versy’, and as there is every indication that they are prepared to fight it out “on that line” all winter, in mercy to the public we must say hold ere thaodiscus sioi. reaches the ad nauseam climax. Man's Accouxtjbiutt to H.s God.—-We were not a little siq rued by a remark recently made at the tamily meaV, by a little girl only five years of nge. In tbe midst of a conversation npv»n other top ics having no connection with tbe thought, she suddenly exclaimed "I wish there was uo ti ght and no judgement day.” Her father said, why ? my daughter. The little creature stopped eating, changed color, and while the big tears chased each other down her checks, exclaimed, "because I am so bad.” Here was a touching, and powerful argument in favor of the immortality of the soul, aud its accountability to the Go I who created it. It was the unassisted, outspoken utterance of that well defined instinct or intuitiou, which stirs the human heart even from the hours of early infan cy. The untutored savage has bright visions of fair hunting grounds, and peaceful sunshine in the spiritlami. The mussulmac from bis koran paints the beati| tildes of a perfect scusua' existence heiealtcr ti e pagan idolater prostrates himself before the and - car of Juggernant, even tue most un lettered and degraded habiike of the jungles i.f Ahica, bows reverentially to some unknown, in visible power, which casts i‘3 shadow athwart his future pathway. It remains alone for the skeptic, the scoffer, the guilt dyed devotee to lust and carnal appetites; to deny the existence aud sovereignty of Jeho vah. The potsherds of Earth may strive with the potsherds of Earth, but woe unto him who dam question the prerogative of the majesty on High, or measure w< apons with the King of Kings, and the God of hosts. tineli reasoning and philosophy w'll hot abide when death and the judgment rise up to view. Despair then seizes the heart of the infidel, and his sun goes down amid the gloom of au etcruai night. To Those Interested. —I would earnestly re quest all those indebted to me. to call at onie and settle, as I have given a3 much indulgence as I can and hope those who hare been receiv ing accommodations at my house, will not cause any further inconvenience by failing to respond. All who do disappoint me need not ask or ex peot any further accommodations at nty l a ids. O. C. BANCROFT. Tennessee.— Both Bouses of the Ten nessee Legislature have agreed upon a Compromise Convention bill, and the bill has become a law. The Conventi,n is to consist of sevent-five members, ty> meet on the seeond Monday in January .--members to be elected on the third Saturday in December. Though the Legislature has rejected the fifteenth amendment, it is said that there is no party in Tennessee in favor of taking the elective franchise fn>m the negroes. The rejection is based upon the right of each State to decide this question for itself. The Nashville correspondent of the Courier-Journal writes : “Affairs have never been more peaceable and tranquil in. Tettnesse than at present under the new I'egimo. Political outrages, }£u- Klux depredations and negro whippings have become things of the past, gfaot which carries its owu moral.” J. [eoame-ctcATSD.] M r - Editor.—l had thought to write notYmg «ure ia opposition to the tenet* of “ A .\ oner,” bit as ha ha* allowed me to aee bis article for ifts week before its publication, and expects a r-P’y, I have resumed my pen. I purposely Jhde no comment on the history of the “ Tbe i«h man, and Lazarus, as told by Jeans Christ, j« I considered the language as plain and as jointed as words could make it. And how that I have seen " A Sinners ” reply, md his attempt to reconcile this passage of scrip ore with the teachings of Universalism, I am aore convinced than-ever that the difficulty with kim, is one«ftLo heart rather than : tbe bead.— And in thus saying, I do not charge him with a lack of commo l boaesty of purpose, for it is not impossible, bat that by repeated attempts to confirm him3elf in his doctrinal views, be has at length come to believe sincerely io his ewers. "A Sinner” mvy have heard the story es ‘he man who was tried for horse stealing, bttt who was acquitted through the tact or ability of an ingenious lawyer. After the trial, his counsel asked him tp answer him candidly, whether or not he stole tbe horse. He replied, that he re ally did’nt know. He thought at first He did steal him, but after hearing bis arguments in the | case, “he be blamed ” if he conld tell whether he stole him or not.” Bat let none be deceived, by supposingtfhnt " honest” error is excusable in God's sight, for it is written concerning those who suffer themselves to be misled : “ And for this couse God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie : that they all might be damned, who believed not tbe truth, but had pleasure in unrighteoasaess ” —ll.Then.2.ll-12 But to return to “ A Sinner's ” reply to our last week's article. He says be admits that if I can show but one instance of a man being tor mented in tbe future world, that his creed falls to tbe ground. E have pointed him to the case of tbe rich man—Who is declared to have been .dead and buried, “ and in bell lifted np bis eyes’ being in torments.” He says in his present com munication that the bell fetre spoken es is in this world, etc. Very well. Let us see how this will read : The rich man died and was buried- Aud in hell, “ which it in this world,” be lifted up his eyes, being in torments. I always thought th it when a man was dead and buried, he never any more opened his eyes in this world. Buts again, the rich man. from bell, " which is ia this world,” colls to Abraham, who is in Heaven, and begs him to send Lazarus With water to cool hi 8 parched tongue. Here again is a marvellous thing. A man dead and hurried, and alter all this, not oaly opening his eyes, bat from hell (which is in this worhl) talking with Abraham in the kingdom of glory! Assuredly that must be a hot place in " this World,” which made Di ves cry so loud that Abraham beard him away off in heaven. 1 would recommend to our uni versalist friends to cry to Abraham before they reach that place of torment, which is in “ tb ! g w.rld,” lest be reply to them as he did to Dives, ••Between us and you, there is a great gulf fixed : so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot, neither can they pass to us that would come from theuce.” It is a strange thing to me that if tbe place of torment, which is so awful as to cause Dive3 to b«g for even one drop of wa ter, and to wish to have one sent from the dead to warn his brethren lest they come to the dread ful place, be in this world, that “A Binner ” can't point it out. And if Dives was Iu this world, I can’t see for the lite of me, why be didn't go himself to a “river” and quench hie awful thirstt and also warn his brethren with his own flaming breath —saying, “ My brethren you thought that I was actually dead and buried, bnt you have been deceived : I was only morally dead and buried. You thought that you yourselves put rue under the sod, but you are mistaken. You thought that my eyes were closed forever to tbis world, but not so. I have opened them again in hell being iu torments, which is in * this world.”’ Tbe (ruth is "A Sinner” ought to see to what absurdities bis doctrine leads. Even if It should be granted that hell or the place of torment were, as it respects position, on our globe, still it would iu no respect aid trie doctrine. For it is certain that Dives did not enter the place of tor ment.jan.til after he was dead and buried. And when we speak of punishment in the future world, we mean by future world, that state of existence which succeeds natural death. Now that Dives weut to the place of’torment af! v a natural death is as manifest as language can make it. “The rich man also died and was bur ied, and in bell he lilted up his eye3 being in tor menis. This is moreover confirmed by his re quest, that Lazarus, wltotilso had died and was carried to Abraham’s bosom (and he certainly could not have been cairied t ere except be had died actually, sot Abraham was at tbe time in Heaven) might be sent from the dc'd to watn his brethren. Now if this does not establish punishment after death, then ail confidence in language to declare truth is at an end. The inferea ce of “a sinner,” that tbe punish ment here spoken of must be in this 1 fe, “be_ cause the parlies here spoken of term, to po-sess, tidily organs, whereas Christ says, that a spirit bath uot fl -sh and bones, amounts absolutely to nothing. For as we cannot conceive of spiritual beings except under material symbols, for the same reason we cannat speak intelligibly of them unless we attribute to them something material or tangible. God in accommodating himself to the weakness of our understandings, represents himself as having bodily organs, eyes, ears, hands etc., but no one in his senses supposes, that these organs belong to God as they do to our bodily nature. The necc'sity therefore of first establishing tbe point that Lazarus anj Divei were possessed of “resurrected bodies, be fore these things could be predicated of them, does hot hold. The question of the resurrection does uot eater at all into the doctrine under con sideration It is enough to know that spirits may suffer pain without bodily organs ; and they also may be happy, while the body mould ers it the grave. The devil and his angels are to bd tormented in the bottomless pit, and yet they are spirits. Christ said to the penitent thief, This day slialt thou be with me in Para dise, We know that this was spoken only of the spirit for the body was buried after death in the earth. As to the other inference, that hell must be in this life, because Moses and the Prophets say nothing of punishment in the fu ture date, I will only say, that there seems to b ■ a dtglU difference of opinion between Abra h .m.and “A Sinner.” Abraham tells Dives (hat t ier« was suffief-nt warning contained in Moses and fte Prophets, to deter his five brethren from the place of torment, and if they would not hear them they would not believe the testimony of L zftis. “A Sinner” says that Moses and the Prophets say nothing of punishment after death, “lie that hath ears to hear let him hear.” lam lather inclined to think that father Abraham in Heaven. is a better judge of this matter than any iinnet - upou the earth. I for one shall take his word for it, for the bible declares that there shall not enter Heaven anything which maketh a lit* and as Abraham,is in that blessed place lam willing to believe him. But again, “A Sin ner” has taken another turn and insists that I hall prove future punishment to ijb endless. He tells me privately, what I did not know. before j that kbout one half of the universalists believe that, there is punishment after death, but that it is only for a limited time. I respectfully pub. m’.t, that this is a different question from that we have thus far been considering, and regret that my limits will not allow a fall consideration at present. I suppose if T can show but one case, where punishment will be endless this doctrine will like-the former one fall lo the ground.— “\Vherefore I say unto you, all manner of sin and blasphemy shall be fo.’given unto men ; but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. And whosoever speak eth a word against the Son of in in it shall t be forgiven him, neither in this world neither in the world to come--MArr. 12-31:32. In answer to the last remarks of “A Sinner.” upon which he is willing to rect the soundmrs of his doctrine. I would direct his attention to— John 5-28:29 Christ having declared his power to effect a mor. al resun ection, adds* -Marvel not at tbis : lor the hour is coining, in the which all that are io tbe graves shall hear his voice, and shall come forth ; they that have done good unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil Hnto the r snrrection of damnation.” Here “Sinner,” are your two classes or conditions of men after the, resurrection.

Memphis, it is said, will be Mr. Davis’ future home. Cooking a Can of Powder.—A small negro boy in the family of the editor of the Tallahassee Florklian took it into his head, Wednesday night of last week, to test the effect of puttiog a three pound can of powder on the fire. The result was the killing of the boy and a general smash-up of plastering, joists and things generally in that part of the house, with a severe shock to all the in mates. Quartette Choirs.— The Protestant Churchman flays it has known the mem bers of quartette choirs to play games during service, to indulge in ice-cre.im refreshments, and even have a brandy bottle behind the screen, np in tbe or gan loft, and advise evangelical minis ters to “look up stairs ” occasionally.— If churches will employ irreligious men and women to perform a part of divine service eqjoined upon the people of God, what can they expect but that it will be done not cmly without devotion but in an irreverent manner. How Hwtetter’a Bitters care Dyspepsia. TUB WHOLE STO ,T IN A NUTSHELL. The office of the stomach is to convert the food into a cream-like semi-fluid, called Chvms. This is effected paTtly by the action of a solvent, called tbe gastric juice, which exudes from the coating of the stomach, and partly by a mechanical move ment of that organ, which churas, as it were, tte dissolving aliment. Tbe Chtm* passes from the stomach into tbe dnodenum, or entrance to the bowels, where it is subjected to the action of the bile, aud the nutritious portiou-of it Converted In to a fluid called Chyle, which eventually becomes blood. Now, it is evident that if the gastric juice, is not produced in sufficient quantity, or if the mechani cal action of the stomach is not sufficiently brisk, the first process of digestion will be but imperiec - ly performed. It is also clear that if the liver, which plays such an important part in changing the nourishing portion of the chyme into the mate rial of the blood, is congested, or in any unnatu ral condition, the second process will not be tbor* ooghly accomplished. The result of the two fail ures is dyspepsia, complicated with billiousness. The mode in which ROSTE ITER’S BITTERS operate in such cases is this: they invigorate tbe cellular membrane of the stomach, which evolves the gastric juice, thereby insuring an ample suffi. ciency of the fluid to completely dissolve the food. I hey also act upon the nerves of tbe stomach, causing an acceleration of the mechanical move ment necessary to reduce tbe food to a homogene, ous mass. They also act specifically upon the liver, strengthening it,and so enabling it to pro duce an ample and regular supply of bile, for the purpose ol converting tbe nutritious particles of the Chyme into Chyle, and promote the passage through the bowels of tbe useless debris. In this way lIOSTETTER’S BITTERS cure dyspeosia and liver complaint. The explanation is plain, simple, philosophical, and true. SPECIAL NOTICES. Rheumatics, Listen and Leaks.— Prof. Kay ton, the popular and celebrated manufacturer of Kayton’s Oil of Life, the best and surest lin iment for rheumatism known, has new discon, tinued his travels throughout the States to see the lame and the ciipple, aud those otherwise aflieted by rheumatism, or neuralgia, or pains in tbe side, dsc., for he and well too, that the people can cwre themselves without him by using his Oil of Life; the virtues of which are unvii sally acknowledged. Some people were foolish enough to thick from the swift aud speedy cures made on the spot, be fore their eyes or their friends, that the Pro l fessor’s bands were bewitched, but we assure all tb&t the sterling virtue lies only in the Oil of Life and good rubbing. For. rheumatism, neuralgia, pains'in the back, joints or sides, or wherever a liniment, can be used that Kayton’s Oil of Life is acknowledged as great and with out an equal, giving the patient almost instan taneous relief by one rubbing. F*-r sprains or bruises, it has also been used with marked suc cess. —A -—*- Ke.vten’s Dyspeptic Pills purely vegetable, a'e tii excellent cathartic. McKesson & Rob bins, wholesale agents.

Simmon's, luka, Miss.: Mr Dear Sir —l use the present means of dis charging a duty which I believe is due my friends, and all whom my name might influence. About six years ego I became acquainted with C. A. Simmons, and bought trom him a “Liver Medicine,” which he brought from tbe up country, and which I found a perfectly safe and reliable com oound. and eminently suited to the class of diseases for which it was tecommended. Last rear I saw Mr. Zeilin, of the firm of J. U. Zeilin, & Cos., who told me that be had bought Dr. C. A. Simmons’ recipe at a very h'gh pi ice-five thousand dollars —and finding that I bad used the Simmons medi cine in my family, and was very much pleased with it, he asked me for my certificate. This I gave him cheerfully, thhiku gto help him along in a business calculated to prove a great blearing to tbe human family, S nee he began to manufacture it, however. I am satisfied be has not the mediome I used ; for having tried it thoroughly, I do not find that it produces tbe same effect. I am, more over, satisfied that C, A. Simmons did not put ap the medicine I bought from him, but procured it f.om bis relatives i>r somebody else ; for it Zeilin bad bought from him the recipe by which that medicine was made and honestly followed it in tbe manufacture o that which he now puts before the public, I know; we should have had a different th ng, and one n o e worthy the public confidence. I am anxious to reps r the wrong I have done the public by that cert ficate sa las ly given, an! thus pat you in possession ot tbe above tacts, which you mav use as you think proper, Very respectfully, JAMES R. CHILES. Dr. M» A. Simmons’ Vegetable Liver Medicine is more highly recommended as a su e remedy for diseases of the Liver, Stomach and liowels—for all di -t as- 8 arising from a torpid or deranged state of the Livei —than any other medicine in the whole world ts for. any disease, or class of diseases, what ever. It has mote certificate , and better ones, front exactly the right class of people, than any oth er med erne.

The Doctor does not make these statements becau e he considers bimself more skillful than those oth er physicians, but simply because he sincerely bed-Ves that the remedies which be employs will prove much mo-e etb. ..cious, and are more completely adapted to the treatment of diseases, especially those of a Chronic' nature.
