Brooklyn, December O.—A fire broke
out lasi night on ti e stage of the Brooklyn
Theatre during the performance of the “Two
Orphans.” Mr. Siudley, who played the
part of Jackqiip, made an effort to calm the
excited audience. Many resumed their seats,
but only for a few seconds. The flames
spread rapidly, and the theatre was soon
eveloped in flames. 'The panic became gen
eral. Before the aetcrs left the stage the
audience rushed for the doors, women faint
t-d, -gutfes were blocked and many were
thrown down and trampled on. The ushers
and police made every effort to induce the
people to retire in good order without ef
fect. The fearful extent of the disaster was
not appreciated until daybreak, when it was
discovered that a great number of thp au
dience had perished while escaping from
the gallery and dress circles. The uppet
portion of the house was packed full, al
though the attendance in the orchestra stalls
was only moderate. The stairs and lobbies
to the upper floor became quickly choked
up with the terrified crowd, who trampled
over one another until their progress was
impeded. Doubtless many were suffocated
by the smoke, which was dense within the
space of three minutes from the first appear
ance of tire. Their bodies were found in
heaps along the line of the main lobby and
gallery stairs, having fallen through the up
per flooring which was burned away. The
sight appalled the stoutest hearts. Two
hundred and eighty-five bodies have been
taken from the ruins ot the Brooklyn Thea
tre. It is now feared that the number of
dead will reach three hundred.
Columbia, December 7 —The Senate and
the Mack y House passed the hill author
izing any qualified officer tn administer the
oath to the Governor. A few minutes past
one the Republican members of the Senate
marched to the M .ckey House,where Cham
berlain was inaugurated and sworn in by
Probate Judge Boone. lie delivered a short
inaugural speech.
The Republican Legislature adjourned at
the close o! Chamberlain's address.
The Democratic House met to-day, with a
constitutional quorum ot the members hold
ing the certifica'es of the State Secretary.
They confirmed all the acts previously done,
and finally seated the Edgefield and Laurens
delegations. A committee was appointed
to inform the Senate that the House was
ready tor business, and ask General Huger
to remove the troops from the State House.
Columbia, S. C., December 7. General
Wade Hampton has issued the following
card :
To the I’uhlic : The fi flowing paragraph
appears in an address of D H. Chamber
lain, delivered in the Capitol to-day :
“The gentleman who was my opponent
for this office in the late election has recent
Iv declared, as I am credibly informed, that
he holds not only the peace of this city and
Stit“, bat my lile in his hands. I do not
doubt the truth of his statement. Neither the
public peace nor the life of any man who
now opposes the consummation ot ibis policy
of fraud and violence is safe from the as
saults of those who have enforced that pol
icy.”
I pronounce this statement infamously
false. By my unwearied exertions, I have
endeavored to preserve the peace of the
State, and I have thus contributed to shield
from popular indignation one who has proved
himself a disgrace to his rank and a traitor
to his trust. His conscience may make him
tremble, but neither I nor the men with
whom I acllcountenance the hand of the as
sassin.
(Signed) Wade Hampton.
New York, December 7 —Work on the
ruins of the Brooklyn Theatre stopped this
morning, It is s‘ated old bodies in all were
found.
Washington, December 7. —The com
mittee on privileges and elections of the
Senate, considered Mr. Edmnnds’ resolution
of inquiry into elections, which, among other
things, involves Lamar's seat in the Senate.
They appointed six sub committees to visit
the doubtful States.
In the House, McCrary submitted a joint
resolution referring the canvass of the vote
of the electsrial colleges to the Supreme
Court. Mr. Wood suggested that the mat-
ter was of such importance that it should go
to a committee, whereupon it was referred
to the Judiciary committee.
A review of the telegraphic reports of the?
action regarding the electoral votes, shows
the following situation: The Republican
electors of Alabama east their vote for Mr.
Hayc-s, without any credentials. The Dem
ocratic electors of South Carolina, under the
sanction of a decree of the Supreme Court
of the State, cast their vote for Mr. liiden.
The Democratic electors of Florida, under
a protes 1 and certificates in their favor from
a member o! the Canvassing Board, who is
also At’orney General of the State, cast their
votes for Mr. Tiiden. The Democratic
electors, under certificates from Gov. Mc-
Enery. of Louisiana, cast the vote of that
State for Mr. Tiiden.
A Democratic elector of Vermont, claim
ing office in place of Mr. Poetmester Sollace <
cast his vote for Mr. Tiiden and appointed
himself messenger to carry his vote to Wash'
ington.
The Republican electors of Oregon, with
out their credentials, east their votes for
Mr. Hayes. The Electoral college of Ore
gon, as commissioned by the Governor cast
two votes for Mr. Hayes and one for Mr.
Tiiden.
The summing up shows, covered by the
br ad seals of the States, 185 votes for Mr.
l iiden and 184 votes for Mr. Hayes.
Tallahassee, Fla., December 6. —A quo
warranto was served on the Hayes Electors
before casting their votes —an injunction is
sue and in favor of Drew against the Canvass
ing Board. Cocke, Attorney-General and
a member of the Canvassing Board, protests
against the official returns, as a criminal
and base falsification of the returns. He
also gives certificates to the Tiiden electors.
Portland, Oregon, December 6.—Gov
ernor Grover, to day issued certificates to
the two Hayes electors and one Tiiden elect
or. The two Hayes electors declined to
meet with Cronin—whereupon the latt.r,
who had all three cer ificates, appointed two
Republicans to act in their places. The two
whom he appointed to act in their places,
met with him and received their certificates,
and then all voted for President —two tor
Hayes, and one for Tiiden.

Paris, December 2.—An official decree
has been published commuting or reducing
sentences of 107 Communists. Several
have been granted full pardon.
Paris, December 3. —Russia has ordered
twenty million cartridges from the United
States.
London, December 4.—There has been a
heavy gale since Saturday, causing floods,
disasters to shipping, and loss of life. The
Thames is very high.
A dispatch from Pesth says the Turks are
preparing for a struggle with terrible ear
nestness. The Russians are hurrying their
preparations to take ttie field.
A dispatch from Calcutta to the Times
says the loss of life from the late cyclone has
been underestimated. Ninety ppr cent, of
the plough cattle were lost. Sickness pre

moved.
'1 he tone of the European correspondence

Paris, December 4. —The Official Journal
announces that the French ministers have
tendered their resignations. President Me
Mahon has accepted the resignation of the
ministers, and requested them to remain in
office pending the appointment of their suc
cessors. The crisis is considered serious, as
it is thought, impossible that the Chamber of
Deputies will accept any but an extreme
Radical, or the Senate any but a reactionary
Cabinet, Various ministerial combinations
are suggested.
London, December 4. —A dispatch from
Paris to the Times gives a detailed account
of the crisis in the French ministry, from
which it appears that M. Dufaure, President
of the cabinet council, offered his resigna

of his defeat in the Senate on Friday. All
his colleagues approved of his action, and
decided to imitate it. Their intention was
not immediately carried out in deference to
the wishes of President McMahon. The
crisis was subsequently intensified.
London, December s. —Bismarck’s speech
represents the alliance of the three empires

former assurance of Germany’s neutrality
should the conference fail to achieve una

The garrison of Puebla had revolted in fa

with Diaz, but has since repudiated him, and
still maintains his position as an Independ

ing a forced loaa. Good order prevailed in
the capital; but the whole couutry was divi
ded, and the partisans of the three Presi
dents were rallying to their support.
ATT FMTON.
The Advocate must, have more subscri
bers. It is intrinsically worth all that is
asked for it, and ought not require any in
centive to take it, other than the obligation
that every Methodist iu the land ought to
feel it his duty to have a good religious pa
per in his family. But as, iu these days,
premiums, consisting of ehromos, etc., are
offered, we feel like making to our subscri
bers, new and old, the following liberal of
fer :
■•mith’s Large Bible Dictionary and the
Life and Fpistles ot St. I'nul.
By a special arrangement with the publishers,
we are enabled to make the following advan
tageous offers to all our subemibers:
For $4 50, and 50 cents extra to pay for pos
tage, we wi l forward to any address, the South
ern Christian Advocate for one year, and a copy
of Smith’s Large Bible Dictionary, or Conybeare
and Howsou’s Life and Epistles of St. Paul,
each being a large octavo volume of more than
1,000 pages, haudt-omely and profusely illustra
ted with maps and engravings.
For £7.00 we will furnish the Advocate for oue
year, and both the above valuable works, pos
tage free.
To Ministers and Theological Students, we
will furnish the Advocate one year, and eiiher of
these works for ?4.50, free of postage ; or both
works and the Admcate free of postage for
10.50.
The retail price of either of these books alone
is £4.50; so tha, by the offer above made our
-übscribers can secure b >th the Advocate and
either book at the price of the book alone; and
by taking both books at $7.00, they can do bet
ter still, inasmuch as the retail price of both
bo.'ks with postage amounts to SIO.OO, and the
Advocate $2.50 more, making a total of $12.50
the value of which as above they can secure for
$7 00.
Every minister, every Sundiy srhool super
intendent and teacher, every student of the
Bible, aud every Christian family, ought to have
a copy of the Bible Dictionary; and the Life and
Epistles of st Paul should be in the library of
every clergyman and intelligent layman in the
conmry.
We snail be happy to furnish onr friends with
both these works, as above announced, and we
trust that many will secure them on the liberal
terms which we offer.
To all our present subscribers who have paid
for the paper one year or more in advance, we
will send either of the above books for $2.50.
This puts all on an equality.

MACON,GEORGIA, DECEMBER 12,1876.
NORTH GEORGIA CONFERENCE.
I left Macon on Tuesday morning for
Sparta, the seat of this body. On the way
I had pleasant converse with various breth
ren en route for the Conference.
Sparta is a pleasant town, and has made
arrangements to supply all with good homes.
A Conference was held here seventy years
aga. Bishop Asbury presided. Dr L.
Pierce is the only preacher living who at
tended that Conference. He will be present
at the meeting of this Conference.
Wednesday, December 6. —The Confer
ence met at 9a. m. Full particulars in an
other place. Bishop Pierce delivered a most
interesting opening address. He alluded to
the fact above stated, of the long interval
since a Conf-rence was held here, and rela
ted an incident which occurred at a love
feast held during the Conference of 1806.
Bishop Asbury sat silently for several min
utes and then rose up with his face fairly in a
glow and said, “ Brethren, I feel that. God is
in this house.” It spread like wild fire, and
in a few moments nearly ail were shouting
the praises of God.
Dr. McFerrin was present to day, and
made one of his characteristic speeches. He
spoke of the wonderful growth of Methodism
and the increase of her collections for the
various Church interests. He said the in
crease in the white membership since 1866
was over 300,000. The Church is not in
debt one dollar for missions. Her mission
fi Ids are being extended, and the people
gladly meet all the demands upon them, even
in these hard times. He wound up by say
ing that hp knew as much about the Metho
dist Church as anybody* While the Bishops
steered the craft he was on board looking at
its rapid advancement. While he was not a
chief officer, he had been a cabin boy for
over 03 years.
The services of the pulpit have been inter
esting. Rev. G. W. Yarbrough preached
on Monday night, and Rev. W r . R. Branham
Tuesday uight previous to Conference. At.
3p. m. to day Rev. W. L. LaPrade gave
us a very interesting discussion on holiness.
Dr. J. W. Hinton of South Georgia preaches
to-night.
Thursday, December 7.—Bishop Pierce
in the chair. After religious exercises the
Conference went into examination of char
acter. They took up first year's class. Most
of the class were continued on trial. The
Bishop lectured the class on the necessity of
studying the Discipline. He told a story of
his own early exnerienee He was about to
close the services one day, when the old
class leader said, “ We have so ne Church
business to attend to.” A man was charged
with drunkenness, swearing and fighting.
He was at a grew 1 iss, for he did not know
the Discipline. He and the leader managed
to turn the man out, but he did not know
even to this day whether it was according to
law. But he got a Discipline and went to
the woods and learned it by heart. It has
been a great help to him ever since
The business of the Conference is being
dispatched rapidly.
1 am pleasantly quartered at Mrs. S. H.
Sasnett’e, having tor my room mate my old
Presiding Elder of 1857. Rev. W. R Bran
ham. He is s ill effective and useful, and
has been in the regular work for about forty
years. May God give h'm many more years
of useful labor. I must close now.
J. W. B.
HINTS 10H THE TIMES.
There never was a time when Southern
people had more need of patience than now.
Surely we have had such occasion ofien since
the “ cruel war was over;” but the events of
the last few weeks have far exceeded all
the past in trials for the Southern people.
It is well that we can exercise forbearance;
and even our bitter enemies at the North
ought to respect us for our patience, and
learn to think as well of us as they do of the
poor negro, upon whom they waste much
sympathy.
Let us continue to bear for our country’s
sake. Let the example of that noble man,
Wade Hampton, be ever belore us. 'The
Lord of the earth looks on us. He will not
allow us to be tempted above what we are
able to bear, and he will with every tempta
tion make a way for our escape.
Let us watch and pray; do our duty, and
trust God for the balance. We all want
Tilden for President; let us pray to God to
counteract the evil purposes of our enemies.
Let us pray that God may change their wick
ed hearts, which are now full of malice and
hatred of Southern people, and make them
to be at peace with us. Let us seek to pre
pare ourselves for the worst, so that if our
views are not carried out, and the enemies
of the South prevail, and put in their Presi
dent by fraud and violence, we shall be pre
pared to submit to it as a dispensation of
Providence, that in the end may work for
our good. We have sufTered a long time
—let us pray for grace to suffer more if it
be God’s will. We don't always know what
is best for us. As that good man, Thomas
a Kempis, quaintly says: “ It is good that
we have sometimes some troubles and
crosses ; for they often make a man enter
into himself, and consider that he is here in
banishment, and ought not to place his trust
in any worldly thing.”
Finally, let ns not murmur to each other,
but speak encouragingly of the situation.
Don’t put on a long face and sigh, but be
cheerful. If you can say nothing to help
jour neighbor carry his burden, don’t pull
down on him by gloomy forebodings of the
future. Be hopeful, be contented, and out
of all this gloom and sadness the Lord will
bring hs saiely ere long. In his own good
time He will do it, and as long as we are in
this dark valley He will give us His grace to
help, and we are assured that His grace is
sufficient. This promise satisfied St. Paul,
who prayed to have the thorn removed, and
although he prayed again and again, and
God did not remove it, he gave him that, pre
cious promise, which was better than the re
moval of the thorn, as it was a relief for
every trial and trouble, “My grace is suffi
cient.”
