I have recently heard one or two in cidents connected with his illness, which I cannot forbcar repeating, as i am well assured that his thousands of frieuds take the liveliest interest i1 evervthing that concerns him. The first is in relation to another of his many domestic pets, one deserving Cspecial mention, because of the strong affection which it has always manifested for its master, and more particularly since he has been an inva lid. "Tom" is his name and ho is a cat-of course, or he is a cat and is name is Tom, of course, (I don't know exactly which term is antecedent and which consequent ; but it doesn't matter.) Toza is a Maltese, and is a mjazg1ificent specimen of his kind. He measures exactly three feet from the tip of his nose to the tip of his tail, is fourteen inches high, weighs twelve pounds, and in all but disposition locks every inch a dark young tiger. He has long beeu a member of the family, and contrary to all eat-prece dent consented to accompany the Giov errior on the occasion of his remove frotn a former residence to the one he now occupies. W~hen the Governor was in health, Tow was his constant companion in his daily walks about the yard, and would occasionally ae company him on more extended ram bles through the adjacent woods. It made but little difference to Tomn that his master was sometimes mounted on such occasions. Nothing daunted he would trudge along at his horse's heels for hours together, perfectly sat isfied so long as lie could "keep up," or even keep his kind owner in sith t. The Governor's election to office was a serious blow to his queer follow er, as it involved a daily sepoaration which was eminently distasteful to him, but, like th:e sensible anindl he is, hie finaliv reconciled his own af!'ec tions to the~eliaimis of public expediein ey, and contented him;self eac-h morn ing with escorting his Exelleney to the gate, at somne distance from the house, when he would bid him a sad, if silent, good-bye, and return to the house until evenir.g. The Governor always observed as regular hours as possible in the dischiargze of his duties at the State-Hlouse, and generally re turned to his home about the samte time every eveniog. Thbis reg&arity Tom~ seen2s to have rememnbered for his own benefit, a lie proceeded to avai: himself of it to thie extent of hurrying back each afternoon a little hefore the a;ppointed timne to thec gate, where he ever and anxiously remained to welcome his too long absent friend on his return. When the Governor w~as brought home so seveiely injured 1i0 was consigned to his room, and strict orders given that he should see nio visitors. Tomi was also excluded for rea5ons he did not understand, and the faithful follower- grieved sincerely and for many d;ays over his enforced biani-hment. lHe -was Lem:embered in due time, however, and, to his great delight, was allowed to enter the sick roomn, where lie ha; ever since been lermittedl to remain a silent, sympa thizing attendant and a c-onstant com ;oaionQt to his great and kind friend. When visitiing the Governor a few day :o I was struck with Tomn's hiandintFL appearanice and led to in quire into his history, wheu these thets were obtaiLned. Tom was eni at tentive listener to al that was said conceernin him, anid at the c-lose of the narration deemwed it inieumbent~ uipon him I to as-ert his consequence. wh:ichl lA did byv cflimingU softly uphon the be2d, anlTd ?(oing, withI tread as soft as sow als uptoi is n:aster' s face, wheie he best paid ms te seets in aisectionate dumb ' show, and te euddling down in a soft round heap, asbi as a inuff unde~r is am and ncest 'to h is. de, fell aslep.

The Conference of the African Methodist Church held here last week was in striking contrast toc that of the colored branch of the ti Northern Methodist Church held at a Gr-eenville at the same time. The formier was a quiet, orderly body, fr dealing only with religious sub-a jects, doing and saying nothing that savored of p)olities, while the 0 latter was just the contrary. Bish- - op Giibert Haven, Dr. Fuller, Dr. g Webster- and other whites present did~ all they could to fire thle ne gr-oes' hear-ts against the whitesb among whom they live. The Green-i. ville Newcs states that Dr. Fuliler, Editor of the Ch/ri.tian Advocate, re of Atlanta, addressed the Conxer-d ence Saturday.

Senator ?urgan yesterday, acting for a CoW Inmittee 1ipointed at a Seinatorin DeIm ocratic (.-'ucus. presented a substitute fAr Se mar dmund's resolution. The substitute affirims the buprenracy of the whole Constitution in its sphere, tie rights of the States, &c., and is, on the whole. a readable and sound doetinint. Tie only great objection to it would apply to any paper under the circumstances-aud that s that w;ll lead to interminabie discussiou and this to the neglect of the proper business of Congress. This proper business of Congress, by the way, is to pass the appropria tion bills, investigate and discuss souie means of benefitting the industries of the country, establish two or mure steamship lines to iSouth America, do justice to the producing West by im proving the navigatiou of the Missis sipp-, and to the South by aiding the Texas mnd Pacifie Railway and ad journ. The more discussion we have of abstract questions tie less we shall have of legitimate and necessary busi ness. I hope Democratic Senators will content themselves with voting, and let Republicans waste time in the discussion of the Edmunds resolutions and the substitute. It is a vexed question among the Democrats in the Senate whether to side with Senator Conkling or the Ad ministration on the subject of the New York Custom House nominations. The friends of Senator C. say there is now no doubt of the rejection of the nominees and this of course will be a victory for the Senator. At the close of the civil wvar, under then existing law, every soldier in any way disabled in the ling of his duty was entitled to pension during con tinuance of his disability.
