There wer~e Snine ministers and as many lay dele - gates present. Rev. Z. WV. Bedenbaugh - was made presidlent, and Mr. C. Long, Seretary. pro. Bedenbaugh read a very learned and well prepac~ed essay on the Church year. The Conference passed a vote of thanks for it, and the thanks were well deserved and well bestowed. Ti]e preaching during Conference was of the highest ordler and would hav.e donecredlit to any body of men any where, "even before the Congress of the United States." The addresses before the Sunday Sbool by Revs. Holland, Bowles and Bdenb:mgh were mupch enjoyed. Rev. Shire's sermon on Sunday on the 13th Article of the Confession was a clear and comprehensive exuosition of the Lutheratn doctrine on the efficacy of the Sacrunents. The Communion services were very solemn and1( impressive. Grace siuurch ia fortunate in having the Conference and took great pleasure in entertaining it. Township Assessors. The Act of December 24, 1878, rchanges the manner of assessing pro perty. It requires the County Auditor Ito appoint for each Township "three in ttelligent and discreet freeholders, resi d (ent in the Township for which they areC appointed", who shall form a Board of Assessors to assess the value of real estate in their Township for the purpose e of taxation. The Township Assessors i get iio comp)ensation for their labors, f but are eixemplted from road and jury duty. Any persons dissatisfied with the y alsssment of the Township Boards can e apeal to the County Board of Equali ,zation, which is composed of the Chair ,men of all theC Township) Boards.

The conven Lion will be held in Masonic Hall. We hope the delegates will enjoy their short stay in Newberry. The following facts in connection with the Order have been kindly fur nishied us by President Holland, of New berry Coilege, who is Grand Reporter.

With the advent of spring, every wo* man wvho has taste and culture is cx pected to conform to the deseription of that woman who "looketh to the ways of her household." Some seem to think~ this consists wholly in house-cleaning, carpet-shaking, bug- killing, pantaloon' patching, dress-turning,or general-over turning. It is not so however. To put the house in order other things are in order. A nicely furnished table is one essential ; fine china, crockery an< glass-ware are charming aids to the en joyment of a meal, the pheasing effeelc on the eye acting with a satisfying sense on the stomach, and one crosses leg under the table-that is the male feed er-without a single thought as to the~ price of corn.

On this last named bill, or, rather, .: he amendment forbidding the use of troojps at the polls, there is now go ogon in the House a highly interest i" debate. Yesterd ay Representative *elford, of Colorado, made a long and bite speech. There were also speeches 'a: Messrs. Chalmers and Muldrow, 41 Mssissippi, Mr. Hurd, of Ohio, .d Mr. Frye, of Maine.

Of course he knew better, and he had many times, with i: iarty associates, done exactly what hic.ow denounced. But of all of our Irublic men few have a greater reputa iloni for insincerity than Mr. Garfield. The Senate yesterday did well in pasing a bill appropriating a small -tu of money for the purpose of pur etlgor building a vessel for the pur2ipose of disinfecting vessels coming om:: ports believed to be infected with ;1ow fever or other contagious dis es.The bill was first drawn to di reL a contract with Prof. Gamgee, before mentioned in this correspond es.co, but was so modified as to open lists to all. It has long been felt (t ongress should take some action a t~'he subject of this fever, and per. pthe "prevention" now provided rwill save a great expense for --e re" Te reported public debt was in cre'ased nearly $1,000,000 in March. iswas less than Secretary Sherman ha expected. Of the amount $750, Io went to Capt. Eads for jetty work at the mouth of the Mississippi. In abut a month payment under the ar rear of pension act will commence, and will be made, it is thought, at the ct of $1,500,000 per month. Even i there should be-as has been expect ..d but is not now likely-an increase if, r the~ year in custom receipts, it is not likely that there will be during he time any decrease in the public Pe&ople generally will be glad of the (JIrmfation of Francis A. Walker as Superintendent of the Census. Mr. Y'ker is a Republican, but does not 2 his politics interfere with the dis ;~eo of his public duties. He was .ung the first and most earnest civil ice~ reformers and to his credit it :;i:uld be remembered that while in &;ii':e here lhe did not permit his civil service ideas to be the mere jest that .ir. Hayes and his officers make of mhm ed he has shown himself that the jury did not believe that the ex-Senator proiised marriage, or that his uharactr was so notoriously bad that the woii:iu who believed hia was not of sound mind w.:d was therefore incapable of being a party to a con tract. Meetings are being held here by colored mwn for the furtherance of Senator Windom's plan of negro col unization in the Northwest. Last evening, the Senator was madc Presi. dent of an organization formed here fur the purpose. If nec ma ji.1ge from what intelligent colored mi here say, Senator V. is rapidly stealing away Gencl. Granit's Southern strenth as a Presidential cadidate. The Southern Republicans are not very formidable at. elections, but they have influence in noulinmaiing couventionls, and Ge . Ofrant don't you forget it. DEM. Grange Department.
