Previous to the final adjournment of the Southern Baptist Convention at Louisville, on T^sdaiy last, the order of business was sus pe?<leu" lu prier to allow the committee on Dr. TeteVs resolutions Ott Co-operation to report. In-presenting tty report Dr. Jeter said that while U.aid not go as far as he could desire yetrh met th j unanimous approval of the com mlttee^and he should cordially vote for it. The vote wen taken without further discussion, and th? report unanimously adopted as follows: The- committee to whom was referred the preamble and resolution with reference to fra? ternal Intercourse and co-operation with Northern Baptists, respectfully report: - Tour committee, with all the light before th?m oii the subject, submitted to their consid? eration^ alter a careful comparison of their vie WB, have but little to add to the cour sel pre? sented In the report ot the committee OR co-op? eration "with the Sunday-school Board, adopted by the convention on Saturday. The policy re? commended for that boardi3 proper for all the boards. All are agreed that the convention and its boards should be maintained in their .integrity. No measures which endanger their -existence or diminish their efficiency are to be tolerated. All the energies of Southern Baj> tiats should be directed to their support and the Increase of their usefulness. . Your com? mittee do not recommend that any measure be adopted in the' direction proposed in the pre? amble and resolution referred to them, beyond those heretofore sanctioned by this convention; and believing that the further agitation of a subject widen has absorbed so much of the valuable time of this body, nt Us last three ses? sions, tends only to disturb our own harmony, without promoting fraternal relations with other bodies, your committee respectfully ask to be discharged from its further consideration J. B. JETER, Va., Chairman. THE METHODISTS. %ntrul Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. . In this body on Tuesday last, under a call of | standing committees Pr. Hamilton, from the Committee on Re-1 vivais, recommended adhesion to the present system of discipline. The Committee on the Interests of the Colored People recommended the adoption of the action of the last confer? ence ol a separate church organization as pro vided in the discipline; which, under the rule, goes over, but will undoubtedly pass. Under a cali of conferences a large number of resolu? tions and petitions were received and referred, including one from Mobile urging the re-enact ment of the original prohibition in the Code, prohibiting sash amusements aa theatres, cir? cuses,dancing, Ac.; and one from St. Louis asking the formation of a new conference in Kansas: allowing the Pacific Conference to subdivide itself within the next four years; for changes in the discipline regarding infant bap? tism, and to relieve the present discipline j from ambiguities. Thia led to a lengthy dis? cussion. The other proceedings were unim? portant. On Wednesday Bishop Jones, Darrte, Curry, I Levi, Scott and others, of the Northern Metho? dist Chuich, submitted a memorial to the Gen J eral Conference, as follr ws : I By the action and the authority of the Gene? ral Conference of Chicago of 1868, the members appointed on a commis.1 lon to co-operate with a like commission from the Church South on the subiect of union, met at Philadelphia in 1869, when resolutions were adopted approv? ing the contemplated union of the churches. But, in the judgment of the Northern Methodist Church, there is no sufficient reason why a union may not be effected at once on honora? ble terms. Hoping you may view this subject in the same light, and by our united efforts we may appoint a similar committee to join in con? ference, and praying that you may be estab? lished in all that pertains to the welfare ol'a Christian Church, we ask that this letter may be referred to a committee. A report was adopted, saying that the pres? ent value of the Book Concern is ?(7166. On Friday the petition to abolish the office of presiding elder was non-concurred in. The Christian Advocate is to be increased in size; a book ls to be published defining a uniform system of church architecture, and a periodi? cal called the Home Circle is to be published. A proposition to strike the word "South" from the title of the Methodist Church here repre? sented was referred back to the conference. Dr. Summers's Commentary on two books of the New Testament was approved and com? mended to the church. A long debate on the abolition of the itinerancy and tho substitution of the pastoral system was in progress when the conference adjourned. It ls Delleved a large majority will vole for adhesion to the original system of Itinerancy, and declare that no minister can remain in one flock longer than two years. Dre. Catterell, of Alabama, and Edwards, of Virginia, arc eloquent advo? cates of thorough reform in the old system of the church government and the abolition of itinerancy. COMMERCIAL 2fEW8. Exports.
