That whenever such institutions may be established we Dledsre them our hearty sympathy and support 4th.

that we respectfully suirzest the appointment of -six commissioners, three of whom shall be mintetpr and three laymen, who shall examine the claims of various locations and report Upon tlie same at the next session of this Conference. The report was adopted, with direo-ion that the Chair appoint the com mittee of ministers and laymen referred to in the report. Rev. Mr. Shores, of the Methodist Church Stfuth.

this city, was formally presented to the Conference hv th Bishop. Also Revv J. M. Taggart. of the Baptist Church.

The Committee on TemherftnrA made the following report whereas, intemperance is the great sin of our age, extending its baleful lunuences through every nart of our country and poisoning the very life blood of society therefore. stesuit vii, a nan as unnstian ministers we will labor to the full extent of our powers to create a more healthy temperance sentiment and to extirpate this blighting curse from onr lami preaching and lecturing on the sub- ect as oiten as practicable. 2nd. That We will use our influence against the election to office such candidates as are of intemperate habits. 6a.

that as the order of Good Temp-ars has proved a success in reclaiming the inebriate and checking the nro- gressof Intemperance in many places, it is our auty, py example and pre cept, to give this order our hearty sup port. 4th. That we commend the Zealand energy of many of the representatives inourfotate In their ef forts to make the sale of intoxicating liquors subject to the petition of a majority fn each of the precincts and Tit les ot the State, winch tuir proposition was defeated by the whiskey influence tne Legislature. 5th. That the use of ale and domes tic wine is an insidious and dangerous means of intemperance and unless used in case of extreme necessity and administered or prescribed by compe tent pnysiciaus is a violation or our general rules.

Respectfully subniittcdi J. M. Adair, W. S. Blackburn.

The introduction of this report call ed out, unexpectedly, a very livejy discussion. Dr. WestwoodV. suggested that the reference to the Good leniplars be stricken out. Rev.

Mr. Presson was In favor of sticking strictly to the withholding of political support from any man of intemperate habits, no matter what party he belonged to. Rev. Mr. Prichard took ground lu favor of the entire report.

Rev. Mr. Alexander wanted the Conference to take the most radical ground on temjierance. Especially lie wanted the Good Templars en dorsed. Rev.

Mr. Blackburn said Dr. Westl wood was probable not aware that the Good Templars Was the only live tem perance organization irt the btate. lie then referred to the good work the order was accomplishing in Brown-and other river towns. Dr.

Westwood understood the Good Templar Sociables were made the oc casion for dancing. Rev. Mr. Alexander believed in striking at something and not at aur. Mention something dehnite and live.

Endorse and patronize such an institution and help its usefulness. Rev. Mr. Maxfield thought the temperance cause might have been bene fitted by this Institution, but religion has suffered by it. Mr.

Johnson mentioned a place in Ohio Where dancing and wickedness had prevailed before the establishment of a Templar Lodge. Rev. Mr. Slaughter thought there is no harm in this feature of the report and no particular importance. Rev.

Mr. Lemon moved the follow ing substitute: Resolved. That we favor the organi zation of temperance societies throughout our State, and especially, in our Sunday Schools. This substitute received an amrma- Uve vote and the report as amended was then adopted. The committee to whom was ret er red the resolutions of the Lay Convention reported back the same and they were then adopted.

1 ney are as follows Resolved, That we recommend a camp meeting be held for each District at such places as may be deter mined by tho District Stewards. 2nd. That the District Sewards of each District be requested to purchase suitable grounds in a central location for their annual meeting, and that tne expense thereof be apportioned to the several circuits and stations on the District. The Committee on the Accouut3 of Presiding Elders reported found correct. Rev.

St Louis, April A long report was received at headquarters this morning from General Custar, detailing his operations in the field after breaking camp at Medicine Bluff Creek. Fresh signs of Indians were discovered on the 13th of March, and the whole command, numbering loOO men moved fonv'ard rapidly, making daily marches two or three times as long as those of the Indians. Tent were burned and all blankets except one per man, and all surplus clothing shared the same fate. On the loth they reached a camp ground which had been abandoned only two da About.the same time a herd of ponies iff cliafgeof two Indians was discovered. Gen.

Custar determined to capture the herd, and after proceeding some two miles, saw the Indians partially concealed behind the sand hills. After a good deal of signalling, eight of them'catne out, from whom Geo, Custar learned that 2G0 Cheyenne lodges were encamped within ten" or twelve miles, 2U0 of which were directly in front on a small stream. Medicine Arrow, the Chief of the Cheyennes and several other noted chiefs then rod up. f. Among the two hundred lodges were those of the log soldiers, the most mischievous, and barbarous bund of Indian's thai Infest the plains.

Gen. Custar first inteuded to attack this village, but when he learned the Cheyennes held two white fe male raptivcs, Mrs. Morgan and Miss White, he. concluded not to Cct eo, at least until he had these women out of the hands of the savages. He therefore Went with Medieiire Arrow to Lis lodge in' the emtnrof the villsge, where the principal Chiefs assembled.

Before entering the village, he perceived the greatest exdetDentt and noticed that evtrytLing prepared for flight Citar thinks that had he then attacked them with his fatigued troops, he could not have effected triors than a capture of their L-MstArtjniertd tlvearres'-of two chiefs, Big Head arid Dull intending hold them under guard hostages for the white women captives. After considerable parleying and only when the rope and tree were chosen, did the Indians deliver up their captives. The story of their treatment told ry these captives is a recital c.f such bar- parous cruelties and enormous indignities, that it Is surprising that civil- zed beings could endure and survive. The Indians would have killed them had the village been attarkcJ. The Indians express themselves heartily sick of the war, and are Willing to go to that part of the country Inch has been designated for them, and are ready to submit to the decision of the Government authorities.

Gen. Custar says: We have taught the Indians that they are safe from us in noplace attd at no season and also what some of our own people may doubt, that the white man can endure the inclemencies of winter better than can the Indians. He says also that the country and the hiding places of the Indians are now better known. and that he has many officers in his command who could conduct an expedition there without guides. me uenenu speaKs nigniy oi nis officers and men, and especially compliuiciit3 tho 10th iiansai Caval ry.

lhc ueneral did not lose a single man of his command. He concludes his report with the following words I now hold the captive Cheyenne chiefs as hostages for the good behav lor of their tribe, and for the fulfill mentof the promise of the latter to come in and conform to the demands of the Government. "This I consider is the end of the Indian war. Tenure-of-OCice Question. Washixoton, D.

March 27. A couple of New York Congressmen, who called on the President last eve ning, report him as saying he regret ted the action of the House, in reject ing the Senate modification of the tenure-of-ofiice act. He seemed quite anxious to learn what the Senate would probably do on Monday about the matter, and when told that it might perhaps agree to its suspension till 1873, he said that modification would be better than suspension.1- He stated that he had informed many persons that the bill as fixed by the Senate was entirely satisfactory to him. He said: "I am perfectly willing the Senate should pass upon all removals. I want to make the Senate more interested than I am in remova! made on party grounds, and from the way I am pressed to make such removals, I should think the Senate would be more than ready to agree to all I do In that direction.

lien conies to uie removal ui .1 ti i raue case is somewnai uinerent uus nuns, ve wuiu ue trouble." no seriou "A He then asked if the House would not yet agree with the Senate, and when the gentleman answered they thought not, he made some further remarks expressive of regret at the apparent dead lock. He said General Butler had been there, and "I told him," the President continued, "just as I had others, that the Senate bill left me as free as I cared to be." The convention on this topic closed with the remark by the President that he hoped the matter would be settled In some way, without much more difficulty between the two branches of Congress. At Andrew Johnson's reception at his old residence in Greenville, Tennessee, last month, he spoke as follows i Fellow Citizens: In appearing before you, after so long an absence, the reception and cordial welcome I have received incapacitate me from giving proper expression to hiy emotions. There is no place like home. The poet well exclaims Breathes there the man with soul so dead, Who never to lr.rrself This is my own, my native ianu! He spoke of the time, now far back in personal pat, when yet young, he had come to Greenville.

He said he had always relied upon the people of Greenville, and had never been disappointed. Step by step he had gone the official found. Greenville had given him the first office he had filled, in 1835, as Alderman, and next Mayor. He then mentioned all the successive offices through which he had passed up to tho Presidency, in all of which he had received their support. He spoke of his career as He had tried to discharge his duty regardless of the cousequence to himself, and he must there be permitted to say, after going all the round of official trust, urrpyrelleled in history, that he was proud to be able to confidently ask "At whose hands have I ever received a bribe," throughout this whol? rfrutine? I challenge any and all calrniilrttcrs of mine to place their fingers cpon a single 3tain Upon my official character.

With the consciousness of having done my duty, I can look this audience In the face and whom have I betrayed? Whom have I defrauded? He said Ire 1 ad no intention to make a speech. On retiunir'g to their midst, into the ranks of American citizenship, he desired to show his willingness to bear the bonds now resting upon them." He felt more honor In his present Tuition than he would feel to-morrw in a refnaugcraticn. He had no purpose to talk politics. He concluded with a renewal of his thanks for their very cordial welcome, and withdrew, amid to immense cheering of the people. Slate Sorinal School.
