The Louisville Courier-Journal, of the 5th instant, says: The Southern BaptiBt Convention, which meets lu the Walnut street Church to-day, is a most important body, whether we consider its composition or the interest which it repre? sents. The Baptist denomination is a power In the land. From carefully compiled tables, we learn that the statistics of the Baptists in the United States are as follows: 728 associa? tions, 15,143 churches, and 8787 ordained min? isters. They have 27 male colleges, 14 theolo? gical seminaries, and a very large number of I female Institutes. They have 46 denomina- f tiona! popers and magazines, which reach all sections and classes. The Southern Baptist Convention represents a constituency of about seven hundred thous? and white members, in churches scattered over an area extending from Maryland to Texas and from Virginia to Missouri. Southern Baptists have under their control fourteen male colleges and a general theological semi? nary, which has upwards of sixty students. Most of the endowments of these were lost by the war, bnt they have been re-endowed by a self-sacrificing liberality worthy of all praise. Its first session will pe held at 10 o'clock this morning. It ls impossible to Rive now an ac? curate list of the names. We give only a few of the prominent arrivals : R?v A. B. Woodfin, Mobile: Rev. A. D. Phillips, Missionary to Africa: Rev. Dr. Skinner.

The convention assembled in the Walnut street Baptist Church, ia Louisville, on Thurs? day, the 5th instant, in accordance with previ? ous announcement. At the appointed hour the president of thc convention. Rev. Dr. Mell, of Georgia, took the chair. The secretary of the last session, A. F. Crane, Esq., of Baltimore, was at his post, and the exercises were opened by singing the 856th byam of the Psalmist, the reading of the' 53d chapter of Isaiah, and prayer by J?ev. Dr. Pritchard, of North Carolina. ?? The following delegates from SontlTTarollna | were enrolled : Rev. Dr. J. P. Boyce, Rev. Dr. W. Williams, Rev. C. H. Toy, Rev. Dr. J. L. Reynolds, Rev. W. D. Thomas, James H. Nash, John Robertson, C W. Biggs, G. W.? Pickett, Rev. J. Cnlpepper, F. W. Bason. After*the enrolment of delegates the chair announced that the election of officers was In order. Rev.I)r. S. Henderson, of Alabama, moved that Dr. Mell -be elected president. Of 232 votes cast, Br. Mell received 230. The election of vice-presidents being in or? der, 4he "ollo>lng were put in nomination: Hiram Woods, Esq., of Baltimore; Rev. Dr. W. G. Crane, of Texas; Rev. Dr. J. S. Coleman, ol' Kentucky; Rev. W. W. Gardner, of Kentucky; Rev. Dr. Crawford, of Kentucky; Rev. Dr. Boyce, of South Carolina, and Rev. Dr. J. R GraveB, of Tennessee. The president returned thanks lu appropriate terms. A. P. Abell. Esq., ot Virginia, being absent, and A. Fuller Crane, of Maryland, declining re-election, the convention elected as secreta? ries Dr. J. R. Hawkins, of Kentucky, and E. C. Williams, Esq. ol Maryland. AFTERNOON SESSION. After the introduction of some unimportant business, the tellers on the election of vice presidents reported that the Rev. Dr. w, c. Crane, of Texas, was the only one elected. On motion, the three next highest wei? de? clared elected, and were announced to be Rev. J. 8. Coleman, D. D., of Kentucky, Rev. Dr. J. P. Boyce, of South Carolina, and Rev. Dr. A. Sherwood, of Georgia. Rev. Dr. Jeter, of Virginia, offered a series )f resolutions, providing tor the appointment J | )f a committee to confer with a similar com? mittee from Northern societies, to see how far md in what way there can be co-operation jetween them. J. William Jones, of Virginia moved to lay the. resolutions on the table. The vote was taken, and, being very close, a "division" was-. ?died for, during the taking of which Dr. leter asked and obtained permission to with? draw the resolutions, intimating that he would renew them at some other time. . Rev. Dr. J. B. Taylor, corresponding secre? tary, presented the report ol the Foreign Mis? sion Board. The report shows an increase of aver 15000 in contributions as oompared with last year-shows the decided success of their missionary paper, (the Home Foreign Jour- i aal, ) and ably and earnestly sets forth the ne- j :essity of reinforcing its mission stations. It .eferred to the convention the question vkkh some have raised-as to whether our if otk should be vigorously prosecuted or trans erred to others, and ably set forth the ad van age of the former. It gives a detailed, most nie res ting and satisfactory account ol the sto? lons in China and Africa, and refers to the invention the question of starting missions in Surope. Rev. Mr. Stout, of Georgia, moved to reler he report to a committee on the Chinese mis ion and one on the African mission. Rev. J. B. Hawthorn moved to add a corn? el ttee on a European mission. Rev. Dr. Williams, o? Maryland, moved to eter also to a committee on co-operation with j Jorthern Baptists. B Rev. Dr. Jeter seconded the motion and , vailed himself of the opportunity of expiai n ng his position on this question. He was not 2 a favor ot a dissolution of the Southern Ban- 2 1st Convention, but he wanted to see it we ould not have some co-operation with North? an Baptists, which should be mutually a elvan ageous. He wanted to see if we could not dopt some plan which should unite all hearts nd all hands in our common and glorious rork. He thought that the question should be airly and kindly met, and that in this, as In r ll else, we should seek after harmony. He ms not simply a Southern Baptist, but a Bap- a 1st for the whole country, and for the world. Rev. W. D. Thomas, of South Carolina, sub- ( alt ted that Dr. Jeter's speech was on the reso j ti ons he had some time before offered, and iot on the real question before the bouse. The oreign Mission Board had submitted no ques on of co-operation, but one as to wbether we , honld transfer Its operations to others. He ld not wish at this time to discuss the gener- '1 I merits of the question, but simply to raise ils point. Rev. Dr. Taylor explained that this was the uestion raised by the board, that there had een certain publications on the subject, and mt the board had received various letters on ie subject. They did not desire the transfer, i at wanted the question settled. > Rev. Dr. Williams modified his resolution u nd moved a committee on transfer. He was rmly in favor of standing by our own organi? zion. But he wanted the question lalrly let and settled. Rev. Dr. Sumner, of Alabama, was unwil ng even to consider such a question. To I p im it was humiliating even to think of the p osaibllity of transferring to others our own ork. The question being pot, the motion was rerwhelmlngly lout, ana this would seem to ittle for the present that, while the Baptist? rtheSo'. th cherish the most fraternal feelings ?ward their brethren at the North, they in nd to abide by their organization and do leir own work. ia bi CHURCH, SOUTH. Im HE GENERAL CONFERENCE Af. E. In the General Conference of the Methodist I le jiscopal Church on Friday, Bishop Wight-1 fo an spoke briefly against thc useless waste of ? ce in speech-making. Under a call of the .nference a large number ot memorials id communications were presented and (erred, including one irom Virginia j gn members who manufacture id sell whiskey be punished; ?rom Missouri M aylng for more rigid discipline in regard to " Dr: ?' g' Marshall advocated the 18 laoiishment of a monthly eclectic magazine. 00 resolution to adjourn sine die on the 23d in- ne int was laid on the table. Another that on 73 and after ike 13th ol May the conference shall not receive or refer any resolutions tending to a change or effect of discipline, pending which the conference adjourned, to enable the mem? bers to attend the commemorative ceremo? nies. GENERAL CONFERENCE OE THE \ METHODIST PROTESTANT CHURCH. This conference, which assembled on Friday in Baltimore, is composed of representatives from the various annual conferences through? out the United States. The same relations exist between the conferences as before the war, no interruption of their fraternity occur? ring in consequence of that event Rev. Geo. Nestor, of West "Virginia, was called tempora? rily to the chair, and proceeded to open the conference with religious exercises. J. C. Cherry, of North Carolina, was chosen temporary secretary. A committee on cre? dentials was then ordered, of which Dr. Sutherland is chairman. A committee of pul? pit service was appointed, J. T. Murray chair? man. A committee on rules of order was ordered. The committee on credentials re? ported a hst of the representatives present. On motion, the usual committees on Journals, boundaries, judiciary, executive, literature, means of grace, finance, home and loreign missions, Sabbath schools, and temperance were ordered, and a committee of ecclesiasti? cal visitors and comn?unicatiOB? added to the Hst. The conference adjournetf?intil after? noon. On reassembling, at 3 o'clock, after religious exercises,the conterence proceeded to business. ' On motion of Dr. Mtfriwy," Tuesday, at 3 o'clock P. M., was set apart for the meeting of the convention on the Book Concern and Periodi? cals. A paper on missions was read by Mr. B. H. Richardson, and, on motion, it was refer? red to the Committee on Missions. The con? ference then proceded to the election of offi? cers. On the first ballot Rev. J. G. Whitefield, of Virginia, was elected president; Rev. J. Thomas Murray, of Maryland, and J. u. Cher? ry, of North Carolina, were elected secretaries; Rev. L. W. Bates, D. D., reported rules of or? der for the government of the conference, which were adopted. CURRENT NOTES. A QUEER CASE. The physicians upon whose /eport the Eng? lish convict, Rutterford, was reprieved from the gallows because his neck was deformed by a burn, gave the following incomprehensi? ble opinion : "He cannot be hanged by the ordinary means, for to secure against the risk and a prolongation of suffering it Will be nec? essary to use a very considerable and unusual amount of constricting force before the rope can be adjusted in, su ch a manner as to sustain the weight of the prisoner's body." Which perhaps means that he would have to be choked to death before he could be hanged. OXFORD AND WOMAN'S RIGHTS. There is a general notion in thiB country that women are now admitted as students in Oxford University, England. Professor Gold win 8mlth, In a note to the College Courant, corrects this misapprehension. He says : "The examination, to which girls are to be for the first time admitted, is not the entrance exam? ination of the University, but an examination for persons not belonging to the University, commonly called the 'middle-class examina? tion,' and held under thc auspices of the Uni? versity for the purpose of raising the standard of education in our secondary schools." This is a very different tiling from an admission lo the University Itself, a matter which Professor Smith says "has never been mooted at Oxford." A HATTY COINCIDENCE. The Great Eastern was originally built and designed for the East India trade. Proving unfit for that purpose, lt seemed for awhile as ' if she was only destined to be carried around as a costly show for the public. Bot when thc experiment of laying tho Atlantic cable was mode, she was found, by her immenso size, to be exactly adapted to the purpose of carrying the coll. Since tho completion ol that under? taking she has been kept busy laying deep sea cables, and has recently been chartered for five years by the telegraph construction company Df London, to complete contracts they have on hand and In expectation. Jf thc expenso of | building such a vessel had been added to the ?lfflcul?es to be overcome in establishing tele? graphic communication between this country ind Europe, it might have delayed its consum? mation for years. GOOD IDEA FOR DRUGGISTS. An excellent suggestion Is made by an Eng? lish druggist In relation to the dispensing of j poisonous substances. He proposes that in addition to the word "poison," the labels should have printed on- their margins the ap? propriate antidotes tor each class of poisons. A bottle containing a mineral acid for instance, would have on its label : "Poison !-If taken by accident, give, mixed with water, chalk, or soap, or whiting, or oelling scrapings." Simi? lar labels might be printed for the various classes of deadly drags.. COMMERCIAL NEWS. Exports.

In the Bombay circular of 2d April, received his morning, we find the following: "Our corrcs londence on whose opinion we place most reli? ance, do not confirm the estimate given by some gents of a large falling off la the out-turn of the rop. They think that the result will be about he same as last year, as the districts where the lamage has been greatest, are those In which the ultlvatlon has been smallest, and they hope for . sufficient Increase in yield in the largest pro Iuclng localities to make up for the falling off." In the meantime the deficiency In shipments so ar this year, is great enough to more than coun erbaiance our very heavy receipts.
