A very good reason j assign for this appropriation is that the posts will not only otter more adequate will slioltci* to the troops in Texes, hut materially assist in protecting settlers the frontier from Mexican and lu ilian thieves. It is also shown that untler tho iirotcctiou of similar posts Il, c frontier within vvhieli it is safe for families to settle has advanced within the last four years from one hundred fifty to two hundred miles nearer ,|ie Rio'Graiidc and the Staked Plains. As the settlers become numerous, the ; necessity for military protection he comes less pressing, they begin able to take, cave ot' themselvs. The Senate Militftrj- Committee has reported f.i vorable upon the appropriation, which w ill brobahlv bo made.—Savannah!

Hinton, who, 1 j ,] 0Il pt not, would have given general j ! satistaction as a presiding oftieer, but j ie c0l ,i ( l not have ordained those enti-! t i ec i t0 ordination. The Bishop had keen severely ill, but had speedily feeble,' j covered, and, though still was , b „ w hi, M, .......... tigue, Conference met Wednesday, tli on i 10th. and closed Alondav the 15th. The i "ZnX ,i C ,i„l mu fine ind business Sdis^tch! was transacted ^ H was, without a doubt, the most harmonious : session ol‘ the Conference I have atten hieotisiderable fact when we remem j her that nearly one hundred and | men of all age’s, from assembled t went v in to ninety years were there ronvo., , I01 , for .six days successively, close!) j Bcrotimzing each others character and j labors. Another interesting and hap | ,iy dominance feature of of the the session religious was the. pre i Sometimes at these annual (the preachers, twelve months glad to meet separation, •each othfr and after a j ! feeling also that it is a sort of holiday with them, the work of the old year : being just, finished, and that of the new ! notyet begun, relax so far as to become i unwarrantably leritotis; but I saw nothing among our brethren at Perry : tlmt savored of lightness or frivolity. And, pardon the remark if I add just : here, that 1 was glad to belong to such a band. | We had a most interesting ion service on the lirlt night of the ; Conference. I know not howto mate the number that eommuned, think it would not fall short of two hundred. And to this service I believe ; 8 largely due the deep religious everything j that seemed to characterize i done afterward. The preaching all good. Old in his Brother 90th James preached j woody, now with remarkable year, one afternoon [Dr. -and effect. The sermon on Sunday Wilson, our Missionary was grand and glorious, and God and made love the Lord Jesus our i or. The memorial service on i night was one of melancholy joy. we listened to theSmcmoirs of ic Pierce, and also to the remarks brethren in reference to them.
