TO THE PATRONS OF THE ENQUIRER.
For reasons of a pecuniary nature, and for the
sole reason of reducing the expenses connected
with the publication of the Enquirer, Mr. James
E. Wilson, who has so ably and satisfactorily assisted
in the editorial department since the first of
January last, will sever his active oonneotion at the
close of the present year. This course has been
rendered necessary in consequence of facts, of a pecuniary
nature, that have been developed since our
handbills were issued. Mr. Wilson, will, however,
we are pleased to inform the readers of the Enquirer,
continue to oontributo to its columns as
circumstances permit!

THE SOUTH CAROLINA CONFERENCE.
The above body assembled at Morganton, N. C.,
on Wednesday, 11th instant, at 9 o'clock?Bishop
Doggett in the Chair. After the usual religious exercises
the Bishop addressed the Conference, and
reverted in a feeling manner to the annual re-unions
of the body, and referred to the fact that such assemblages
were peculiar to the Methodist denomination.
On calling the roll, eighty-eight preachers answered
to their names. Of the lay delegates, only
twelve were in attendance, at the opening. The
Conference is the smallest that has met for many
years.
The Conference was organized for business by
the eleetion of Rev. F. A. Mood, as Secretary,
and Revs. F. M. Kennedy, 0. A. Darby and S.
Lander as assistants.
A supernumerary relation was granted to C.
Murchison, R. B. Tarrannt, Thomas Mitchell, T.
Munnerlyn, Abner Irvine and Charles Betts.
Second Day.?A communication was read from
Rev. A. H. Redford, agent of the publishing
f house at Nashville, setting forth, among other
things, that the establishment had realized a profit
of nearly $16,000 during the past year. A communication
from Dr. Rev. E. M. Myers, D. D., reported
the Advocate, published at Macon, Ga., in
a healthy and rising condition.
Revs. A. McCorquodale, S. B. Jones, A. L.
Smith, W. H. Lawton, R. C. Oliver, F. M. Morgan,
R. B. Alston, Whitefoord Smith, D. D., L.

the supernumerary list Revs. David Derrick,
Bond English, A." M. Forster, Hartwell Spain,
Nicholas Talley, J. W. Townsend and W. CJ, Patterson
were superannuated on account of age and
infirmity.
Rev. F. A. Mood offered the following, which
was seconded by Rev. S. H. Browne, and passed
unanimously:
Whereas, the Discipline clearly makes it th?
duty of every travelling preacher to attend the
annual sessions of the Conference with which he
is connected; and, whereas, the record this yeai
shows the absence of the unparalleled number oi
forty-eieht clerical members,
Resolved, That this Conference cannot but loo!
upon the voluntary absence of any member from
i any of its sessions with unqualified regret and disapprobation,
and believes that a continuance oi
such neglect must result in grave injuiy to the interests
of our Zion, very imperfect performance oi
the business of our annual sessions, and must in *.!_!
1 x 1_ xl 1
CViiaDiy result in serious uainage 10 me personal
piety, efficiency and usefulness of the absentees.
Fourth Day.?For information the Secretary

ten local preachers, 944 white and an actual decrease
of 7442 colored members.

M. H. Hoyle, having undergone the necesssarj
literary examination, and "being well reoommen

The following, offered by Rev. F. A. Mood, wai
adopted without discussion:
Resolved, In order to keep the membership of
. our church properly informed and interested in the
. origin, history, prowess, peculiarities and successes
of Methodism, that the 24th day of May?the
date of the conversion of John Weslev?be set a'
part by this Conference for annual public services,
to be celebrated by sermons, addresses, Sunday
school festivals, or otherwise, in.all our charges; to
this end,
Resolved, That the first Friday in September be
; observed as a day of fasting and prayer before God,

nest, humble supplication to the Great Head of
the Church, that He would raise up and thrust
forth more laborers into His vineyard.

to be correct returns from twenty six Districts, on
the question of Convention, together with the
probable vote of the remaining five. The total ,
registration is put down at 127,296; the required <
majority, therefore, is 63,633. The vote for and i
against Convention, as far as heard from positive- 1
ly, is 59,030, which, in addition to the probable j

CONGRESSIONAL NEWS.
On the 16th instant, bills were introduced in the
Senate, to enrol the militia of the United States;
to equalize all hank capital among the different j
States; to tax National Banks, and to continue of- ?
Seers of the Freedmen's Bureau. Also, memorials
adverse to the reduction of rank of Generals
Howard and Sickles, all of which were appropriate- .
ly referred.
The discussion of the Bill to repeal the cotton- 1
tax was resumed, but without reaching any definite :
result \
In the House, a resolution was introduced appointing
a joint Committee to locate the Capitol af
the United States. The ultimate object of the j
resolution is the removal of the Capitol to the centre
of the Union.
Mr. Benjamin, of Missouri, offered a series of
resolutions, prefaced by a lengthy preamble, which
provide:
First, That the House of Representatives will I
never consent to take one retrograde step from its
advanced position in protecting all, and promoting !
the cause of equal rignts. (
Second, That th$ success of the Reconstruction ,
Acts, so far, gives no reason to doubt that, under ,
their provisions, the restoration of the rebel States
will be successfully carried out and accomplished; |
that they will be established on a loyal basis, and ?
that in the judgment of the House there is no nc- !
cessity for tne repeal of these laws.
The resolutions passed, under the operation of '
the previous question, by a strict party vote of 111 i
ayestto 32 nays.
nr t* I I. l i 1 il l._ j I
jur. uunier movea to suspenu me ruies, in oruer
to offer a resolution that the indebtedness of the
Government be paid as expressed in the bonds;
that is to say, those calling for gold to be paid in
gold, and those containing no stipulation to be paid '
in lawful money. The House refused to suspend ;
the rules by a vote of 55 ayes to 83 nays. (
On the 17th, the discussion on the cotton-tax <
was resumed in the Senate. The proposition to J
repeal the tax meets with strong opposition, and it ,
is not likely that the matter will be disposed of for i
some time. ]
In the House, Stevens introduced a Bill in refer- i
ence to reconstruction. It alters the provision re- J
quiring a majority of the registered voters for the 1
new constitution to a majority of the votes cast.
The second section provides for the election of rep- ]
resentatives at the time of the' election on the con- J
stitution, who shall take their seats at the session
succeeding the one at which their States are ad- *
mitted. Section third provides that until a new ]
apportionment, the States shall be represented as
follows: South Carolina six, two of whom shall bo
elected by the State at large; North Carolina eight,
one to be elected by the State at large; Georgia
eight, one at large; Florida cJne; Alabama eight,
two at large; Mississippi six, one at large; Louisi- \
ana six, one at large; Texas five, one at large; Arkansas
three. No number is given for Virginia. j
In the House on the 18th, Mr. Maynard gave i
notice of an additional section, to the Bill authoriz- 1
ing the conventions to establish provisional govern- 1
ments. Mr. Stevens withdrew the section of the ]
bill increased the representation from .the Southern
States, and the bill was passed by a vote of one j
hundred and four to thirty-seven. A strict party
vote. The bill, as passed, provides that a majority 1
of votes cast shall be sufficient to ratify the new ,
constitutions, and that, at the time of voting on
the constitutions, the members of Congress shall '
be elected according to the Congressional dis- ,
trict as they existed in 1858. The same officer who :
makes returns of votes on the constitutions shall
give certificates to the Congressmen.
GLOOMY STATE OF AFFAIRS.
From all of the Southern States we receive the
most gloomy accounts of the condition of things as
as they now exist, and evil forebodings of the future.
We are sorry to say that private advices
confirm what reaches us through the press, and
that our own State is not an exception. As a sample
of what reaches us every day, we clip the following
paragraph in reference to the condition of
Arkansas, written by one of the editors of the Mem
phis Avalanche, who has just returned to his home
from a visit to that State:
"The reports which have reached this city have
not been exaggerated.. Indeed, the condition of
the country is worse than represented. _ Gloom and
despair pervade the minds of the entire farming
population. The losses of those engaged in the
culture of cotton will be enormous. But few will
pay expenses. The losses this year are much larger
than those of last year. Planters are rapidly
paving off and discharging their hands, being unable
to feed them longer. The negro is completely
demoralized. Most of them have largely overdrawn
their wages and having learned this fact,
many of them have abandoned their employers, .
leaving the cotton still unpicked, and the result is
planters are compelled to employ others to pick put j
their cotton, for which labor they have already
paid As so many planters will- refuse to raise
cotton next year, thousands of negroes will be
thrown oat or employment, and they will be forced
to live by a regular system of pilfering and robberry.
They have already oommenced tilling stock,
stealing horses, ploughs and harness, with a view
of setting up for themselves next year. Game is
abundant in Arkansas, and most of thane who have
abandoned their employers are living by hunting
nid fishing. All of them have either a' repeater or
a gun, or both ; but their great trouble seems to
be in purchasing caps, powder and shot Those
who have stock or anything to steal live in constant
ii-ead. The same state of affairs exists through>ut
the Southern States. f '
