The proceedings of the Tennessee Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church and the M. E. Church South appeared in the’daily papers of this city in columns side by side. It would seem as if there are some people, even in this center of Southern Methodism, that expect the Tennessee Conference of the Methodist Episco pal Church to remain and do its part in spread ing Scriptural holiness, The Good Templars met in their State organ ization and transacted their annual business last week. Reports show the organization in a healthful condition. They are needed. They made provisions for the organization of anew temperance movement among the colored people, not the order of Good Templars, however. There is need of this or something similar, for drunkenness is making fearful havoc among the colored people in many places in Tennessee. The Tennessee Conference of the African Meth odist Episcopal Church was in session here, clos ing last night. This confergnce ifi Memphis, »hcj was gQtqpelled to hold art adjourned session here on account of the yellow fever. Bishop Brown presided. The Conference visited the Central Tennessee College in a body, and ex pressed themselves delighted with the buildings, grounds, and the singing, and the appearance of the school. The Bute Teachers’ Association holds its next annual meeting in this city, on the 9-12th of De cember. From the preparations for the meeting, and the subjects to he discussed, it promises to be the most important meeting on educational matters held in the State for years. The preachers of the Conference are settling into their places, generally without friction, and are at work for the Master. Many of them were on their new field of labor the first Sabbath after Conference. The yellow fever is keeping the brethren from Memphis for the present, but these frosts and boreal breezes will soon permit them to enter on their work in that afflicted city.
